    Coconut Mango Boom
    Annie K.

    Stopped by heytea on a Sunday afternoon, and it was so busy! They even paused mobile ordering because they were so backed up with orders. Stood in line and waited to order instead. Ordered and paid at the counter and got a coconut mango boom, then waited outside because the shop was just too crowded. They have a screen showing which order numbers are ready, so you know when to pick up the drink. Mango drink was pretty good, had fresh mango purée and mango chunks, so it tasted like a fruit smoothie.​​​​​​​

    Big fan of HeyTea and their wide selection of toppings. The drinks are consistently good and there are lots of options to customize. Customer service at this location was mediocre, during our visit we encountered an employee who kept talking to someone else while taking our order, so I had to repeat myself a few times which was a bit frustrating. The shop itself is really small, so it's more of a grab-and-go spot rather than somewhere to sit and hang out. Overall still a good place if you're looking for a quick drink.

    Loved the combo of pistachio salt foam with coconut juice and jasmine tea. They used premium jasmine tea. Service was quick. There's only standing room. Make sure to validate your Bravern parking for 6 hours.

    The line up and wait can get long if you go during peak hours. I went mid afternoon on a Friday and was able to order right away. My coconut mango boom drink was filling and well made. I wish they offered a milk alternative option so those of us who are lactose intolerant have more options.

    - delicious, but service could be improved - I was in the area and had a 10% birthday coupon, so I placed an order through the app. It was ready within 10 minutes, which was great. However, the drink wasn't packed, and the employee asked whether I needed a bag in a very casual--almost rude--tone. I said, "No, I'm good," and took the drinks, but I felt uncomfortable. It was a noticeable contrast compared to the great service at other boba places like Chi Cha San Chen or MACU, where drinks are already properly packed for you. I ordered the Coconut Mango Blue, and I got the Supreme Brown Sugar Boba Tea for my husband since the original version was no longer available. My drink was actually delicious--I finished it within 5-10 minutes. My husband, however, said the milk tea wasn't as good as the original. I took a sip and mainly remember that the drink itself wasn't very good, though the boba was surprisingly soft and chewy. I'm not sure how those two qualities can coexist, but they somehow did, lol. After the 10% discount, the total came to $14.85. This place is definitely not cheap by Bellevue standards. I'd probably order from somewhere else next time for better service and overall drink quality.

    Is it just me, or is HeyTea kind of... average? I tried the Mango Coconut Boom and it was pretty underwhelming. The mango didn't taste ripe and honestly felt like it might've been frozen, which really dulled the flavor. For the price, I expected much better quality. The space is also very cramped with long wait times, no real place to sit, and prices that don't match the experience. Overall it felt more hype than substance. Hui Lau Shan does mango drinks and desserts way better. I wouldn't go out of my way to come back.

    Good tea but expect a long line and wait. The store is small but has some special drinks. The triple matcha was really good, and I liked the cream foam and pistachio flavors too. Solid overall, but a little FOMO vibe for me.

    I love love heytea the quality and flavors of their drinks are so good. You can tell in general there is a lot of thought and effort that goes into it, from the packaging of the cup to the actual ingredients that go in it. It is always busy in store so I would recommend ordering store pick-up for a quick trip. I wouldn't expect much service because it's always busy but if you go during the week during hours where everyone's working it'll probably be fine . The bellevue location doesn't have any seats available in-store but there is a letao right across or places to sit outside around.

    Heytea is super trendy in New York and I was excited to try it here in Bellevue. Located in The Bravern, you can park in their lot and Heytea will validate your ticket for six hours. The shop is small and is mainly a counter to order and receive your drink. Also the guy taking our order seemed like he hated his job, but he wasn't rude, just very unenthusiastic. On their menu, drinks with "cloud" have cheese foam, and drinks with "boom" are slushy. I got the cloud green grape drink and added boba. Wow! this drink was so good. It had cheese foam and it was a slush. There were pieces of green grape as well. The grape flavor was very pronounced and natural, it didn't taste artificial at all. The boba was chewy and sweet which I enjoyed. My friends got the supreme brown sugar bobo milk tea. This is where my review only get 4 stars instead of 5. The drink had a very light tea flavor and a strange after taste. It was hard to describe but I would stay away from their milk teas. Overall their fruit tea is where they shine and I am excited for my next trip to Seattle to try the other drinks.

    It's a bit overhyped but the drinks are not bad. I actually would come Back again for the kale juice. It's smooth and refreshing and I like the chia seeds! The cup it comes in I wish it would be a glass vessel. It's plastic but still super cute. Overpriced for $9 though.

    Got boba here because Erica and I trying to see the best boba shop on western part of Washington state. Pleasantly surprised at how good this place was! Chewy yet soft boba with milk tea that was the perfect amount of sweetness. Small portion size considering the price point, but I like that they give you a fancy bag to hold multiple boba orders...at no extra charge! Took a bit to make the boba...maybe like 15 minutes. Parked at the mall structure site for no cost because we came past typical business hours when they charge hourly. Staff was very serious, which was a bit off putting with the bright white lights, tight floor plan, and many people in line that had to wait even outside because it reminded me of being in a hospital or clinic. Staff did their job to ensure that we got everything that we needed to take our boba milk tea orders to-go with napkins, proper-sized straw, bag, etc. Taste was peak, but uh...idk about service and ambiance.

    I ordered on the app and waited inside. There is no seating and no bathroom. There was not a lot of space to wait either. It was very busy and crowded and took about 20 minutes to get my drink. Definitely only take out location, drinking inside is not ideal.

    Surprised I haven't left a review here. I'm definitely a converted HEYTEA fan. I'm typically the guy who calls things good but overhyped however I will be hyping HEYTEA up. As they expand across the states, they've stayed very consistent and I know exactly what I'm getting anywhere. Compared to some of the "modern" tea shops and brands with insane lines, I think wait time here is more justified. Pro tip is to order on the app, they have fairly accurate, real-time monitoring for time estimates and number of drinks ahead. While I originally knew them for fruit teas and cheese foam, I've grown to love their matcha as well. Particularly the triple supreme matcha with matcha mochi. High quality all around. I currently frequent the SLU location because it's more accessible and convenient but will give props here for being the first location in Washington.

The Thai green tea itself was actually really good -- super floral, creamy, and milky. The sweetness reminded me of sweetened condensed milk, which worked really well with the tea flavor. The part I didn't really enjoy was the ube soft serve. Something about the flavor tasted a little off to me, and once it melted into the drink, everything became much sweeter than I wanted. The waffle was also VERY sweet with a strong coconut flavor. Overall, I did enjoy the actual Thai green tea drink a lot, so I'd probably come back for that alone. Next time I'd skip the soft serve and waffle and just keep it simple.

    Seattle-Area Boba Shop Review #100…read more One hundred Seattle-Area boba shop reviews, in less than a year since moving to Washington. Yeah, I drink way too much boba... This is certainly the most unique Don't Yell At Me location, consisting of a little standalone building fully enclosed with floor to ceiling windows. The bobarista station is situated right in the center, and there are full walkways with seating surrounding the center in a circular pathway all around. While they don't have dedicated parking, there's limited street parking in front and free 30 minute retail parking in the Bellevue Tower Garage down the street. Traditional Milk Tea, Less Ice, 50% Sweet, Lactose Free Milk w/ Golden Honey Pearls ($6.85) -This drink has a pleasantly strong tea flavor. It's very nicely sweet (not from the sweetener) and has a robust earthy and herbal flavor that kind of tastes like liquid grass jelly. Quite pleasant, and stronger than what I remember receiving from other DYAM locations. Too bad the boba is mediocre. The pearls, small transparent golden balls, are sweetened well in honey, but are far too firm to give a great chew or bounce. Definitely undercooked, albeit not rock hard. Milk Tea Rating: 5/5 Boba Rating: 3.5/5 Given the undercook on the golden honey pearls and the typically softer brown sugar pearls, I might have to opt for the latter in any future visit. Bathrooms - None

    Never been to one of these before, and we only wandered in during the Bellevue Arts Fair because…read morethe name caught our eye. We thought we were about to get a caffeine fix... surprise! Turns out it's a boba spot. Since we were already there, we decided to grab a snack and hang out for a bit. They've got Hong Kong-style egg waffles for about $5, plus an assortment of desserts like Japanese dessert sandwiches, egg tarts (a few looked a little on the "extra toasted" side), and boba tea in more variations than I could keep track of. If we'd been hungrier, we probably would've ordered more, but we settled on the egg waffle. The space itself feels almost like a bonus add-on to the building kind of a big kiosk and I saw the running supplies over from the building next door. There's a small seating area by the pickup window, but most people seemed to take their orders to go. Our waffle took a long while to come out, but when it did, it was perfectly baked warm, crisp on the outside and that perfect chewiness on the inside, ideal for snacking as we continued exploring the fair. If you're driving, parking nearby might be a bit of a mystery, but if you're already on foot around the Bellevue Galleria, it's worth stopping in for a boba or a quick treat.

    Got two tiramisu lattes here -- one chocolate and one matcha -- and both were good. But, I was…read moresurprised there was no boba, especially because the kiosk photos clearly showed boba in the tiramisu lattes. I am almost certain that we ordered it, too. It did not come automatically, and it also was not listed as an add-on option at the kiosk. So, if you want boba, order at the front counter instead with a representative. I wish that they clarified that upfront because the visuals were misleading. The staff was not interactive. They were focused on making drinks and keeping the space clean -- which is the bare minimum -- but it did not feel welcoming at all. There was also no clarity on when orders were ready. They would just place the drinks at the front and move on without calling out numbers, or confirming which order was what. It would help a lot if they announced the order number and drink name so that customers know when to step up. There is not much seating here either. It is a pretty tight shop, but thankfully there are other good restaurants and stores nearby, if you want to hang out elsewhere. Parking is a bit tough, so get comfortable with parallel parking on the strest The lighting inside is very bright -- almost too bright -- but honestly, it matches the energy of the tiramisu latte that kept me wide awake. One extra star for the free, collapsible red cup holders that I never seen any other boba shop do, though!

    We came to Macu Tea around 1:00P on a Saturday and I was surprised that we were the only customers…read moreat the time. The shop is tidy and had custom Seattle / Bellevue art on the wall, which was a nice local touch. There is a very small section of seating inside, but no tables, so most customers merely just pick up their tea and go. Macu specializes in dessert drinks which sound tempting and indulgent, but all of them are "fixed", so you need to order them as-is with no customizations to the sweetness and ice levels. Since I had just finished lunch, I wanted a lighter drink and noticed their Golden Leaf Tea is a "Macu Exclusive", so I knew I had to try it. It's described as a unique variety of Oolong. You can get the Golden Leaf Tea in just its plain brewed form, in a milk tea, or as part of their Chi-Chi series, which comes topped with cheese foam. + CHI-CHI GOLDEN LEAF TEA w/ 10% sweetness & light ice ($6.00): I feel perplexed by this drink. Despite not having much of a tea flavor, I endured a little caffeine buzz a couple hours later. I am not sure if the tea itself is supposed to be more mild in flavor, but I just couldn't sense its strength. However, the drink was crisp and refreshing, with the 10% sweetness level being perfect for my taste. The cheese foam was pretty light, smooth and not too salty. As I sipped it, the foam melded gradually with the tea and took over the flavor, making it slightly creamy too. One of my companions got the RUBY GRAPEFRUIT LI-LI TEA ($6.75 + $0.75 boba) and couldn't taste the tea either. It was very grapefruit-forward, including lots of pulp from the fruit. She said the boba was nicely cooked and lightly sweetened. We ordered at the kiosk and the staff called our number in just a few minutes. It didn't take long since they just had a couple mobile orders other than ours. I am willing to give Macu another chance, but was just let down since my tea seemed quite diluted compared to other Oolong teas I've ordered elsewhere. 3.25 stars.

There are 3 cafes I go to on the regular for my hojicha fix: Magic Matcha, Tendon Kohaku, and Bobae in Kirkland. While I enjoy all three, Magic Matcha is my favorite. The roasted tea flavor is strong, they allow me to adjust the sweetness level, and the flavor of the drink is always consistent. I've had issues with Tendon and Bobae either changing up the brand or the roast or adding too much milk on any given day. One of my gfs loves their horchata hojicha so there's that. I tasted it and it was objectively good. I wouldn't get it only because I'm not a huge fan of cinnamon, but if I were, it would be another go-to drink.

I've been here twice, once a few years ago with my cousins, and another three days ago. The people working were attentive and quick with their service. The ambiance of the place is cute, a lot of pink and green, very instagram-worthy, and I saw a few people with friends or working on their laptop so it seems like a great place vibe-wise. To expand on my matcha critique, I found the color to be a little on the green-yellow side, which isn't the end all- be all quality indicator for matcha, but I find matcha lattes that are more rich in color tend to taste better and this tasted like a matcha drink I could make with costco matcha. I've made some decent lattes with costco matcha but once I switched to the more higher quality ones, well, it sorta refined my tastes. There isn't a lot of parking, and to be fair, a lot of people who are in downtown Bellevue are parked elsewhere else and likely just meander their way to the cafe. However, if you're coming in by car, I'd suggest parking by the apartments nearby, DO NOT park at the Chase Bank lot, even if the bank itself is closed (learned my lesson...). Overall, a 3.7-3.9. Could be better. Maybe with other additives like cold foam or strawberries, the drink is better, but I'm judging based off the basic latte.
