We came in around 3.30 pm on a Sunday and the wait for our order was 30 minutes which is not too bad. We ordered the Mango Grapefruit Boom (Regular size with 0 calories of sweetener) and Mulberry Strawberry Boom (Large size with regular sweetness). Starting with the Mango Grapefruit Boom, the sweetness was perfect with the 0-calorie sweetener, there're some sago and jelly at the bottom which gives a nice chew. I can't taste the grapefruit but the pulps do give a nice pop as you drink. The Mulberry Strawberry Boom is okay, it tastes a bit like grape popsicles. Overall, both taste good but they're just like regular fruit juice, nothing really special. I do appreciate the option to change it to 0 calories sweetener with no extra charges which helps make it healthier and low in calories compared to other bubble tea places.

Heytea is hands down one of the best boba places I've been to. I got their brown sugar milk tea, less sweet. The boba is chewy, but the star of this drink is the milk and cream. I'm so glad we braved the line (there were 30 drinks ahead of us when we ordered), but the wait wasn't bad at all. A nice addition to this complex! read more

I got the first matcha drink on the menu because of my theory that the first item on the menu is their best thing. It was a matcha latte with quality matcha I can taste. The matcha latte was super super creamy and sweet, which is not how I normally enjoy my matcha lattes. It was good but I would not get it again due to personal preference. I sampled some of their other fruit drinks. I think if you like fruit drinks, this is the place for you, but if you like drinks for the tea then this is not the place for you. We got there 15 minutes before they opened on the weekend, and there was a line starting to form. read more

A brand spanking new tea place. I did not know that this place had lots of other locations that is also sponsored by some athletes and celebrities. It's a small location with no inside seating area besides a little bench for waiting. The staff and everyone working there is very up beat and have been trained for good customer service. Got to try the Coconut Mango Boom and the Brown Sugar Boba Milk Tea. Both drinks were just good in my opinion. The flavor of tea was a little weak in the milk tea itself. Definitely not a bad place to enjoy a drink. Just remember there's no seating area here. Great service, industry average drinks, I'd still come back to try other items. read more

Heytea - Brown Sugar Milk Tea and Coconut Mango Boom - Bubble Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

I got the coconut mango drink, it was so good! My friend got the brown sugar boba milk tea, he liked but liked my drink more. Delicious but overpriced. read more

We were lucky just to miss what seems like an everlasting rush after dining at Bafang across the way. The girl at the front was friendly and efficient, answering all our questions. We ended up ordering the brown sugar bobo oat milk, bobo milk tea, and strawberry boom. All 3 were great! I was really impressed with the depth of flavor and creaminess in the brown sugar bobo oat milk without the overpowering sweetness. I can see what the hype is about now! It'd be perfect if there was enough space for actual seating indoors or outdoors, but it's too tiny of a shop. read more

The drinks are really good, all of them. Ordering online is going to be the best way to get your drinks fast, they're very good with our estimated wait times, Sometimes online ordering will be down due to higher than usual. Wait times, just go in the line goes fast. They're very good. Drinks are always worth it. We tried them in New York as well. They're still just as good very consistent in my opinion best Boba and milk, tea and Matcha drinks in any kind of drink place you can find. Wife and I have been loyal to them for two years and they never let us down. Huge hint, go to this one. The one on Harvard will take forever not worth it and their customer service sucks. This one in Jeffrey is better. read more

There's always a line here, but I waited less than 15 minutes. The drinks are definitely worth the hype

This is my favorite boba shop ever, and I mean it. I normally get the classic bobo milk tea, with great aromatic tea flavor. The boba pearls are chewy and sweetened just right. I'm glad they finally put oat milk as an option for this lactose intolerant girly. Recently tried the coconut mango drink with sago and it tastes like dessert in a drink. I recommend going for less sweetness for the drinks especially if you opt to get boba. I've been here at least 10 times now and I don't plan on stopping. read more

This corner of this Plaza years ago was dead no one never came on this side of the parking lot since HeyTea came in it's been booming and so crowded sometimes you wait for 2 hours for a drink but there is different open window time slot that you can come throughout the day and it's not as crazy busy the drinks are different is tasty it's good you can adjust a sugar level which I appreciate and the drinks are really unique but I'm not sure I would wait 2 hours so I will try to find those open window slot to come in and get my drinks ‍ the staff is friendly the rest the shop is very clean only complaint is a parking is hectic and crazy . read more

In my top 5 boba places. They have amazing fruit drinks like the mango boom and their matcha's are also rich and better than a lot of matcha places in my opinion. Pretty expensive but good quality. Ordering is pretty simple, but there's usually a wait. Store is very small, not really any place to sit so just order and go. read more

i love heytea!! any mango drink hits just right, especially with all the toppings they add inside. usually this restaurant is a pick up & to go, so it was definitely busy. however, service is pretty speedy and on it with their drinks so i only wait about 5 minutes where there were already a couple of people ahead. overall, tasty drinks and chill place to pick up and go! read more

Not bad my first time here. Parking was a bit hard to find. Drinks were good. I got their cloud coconut blue and I got my friend her strawberry cheese boom. Both not bad and not too sweet. Service was amazing and quick about asking and answering anything I had to ask about the drinks since it was my first time there. Ambiance was on point. read more

Heytea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

One of my favorite boba tea places! My go to order is the crisp grape boom. It always tastes really fresh and they claim that there's no artificial flavors, which is a plus. They also put fresh grape pieces on the bottom, so overall super refreshing! Sadly, during the BOGO they ran out of matcha when I got there in the afternoon, so I guess it's best to come early during those promotions. Otherwise, drinks came out pretty quickly and line moved fast read more

Cheese grape bloom - Interesting concept but not for me. The cheese foam was tasty, though a bit too sweet, and there were fresh grape chunks at the bottom, which added a nice touch. However, I wasn't a fan of the texture--the grape peels were still there, so I got one with almost every sip, which was distracting. If you prefer a more balanced flavor, I'd recommend getting this at 25% sweetness. Mulberry strawberry bloom - so much better than the grape version! It's a light, refreshing drink with a subtle fruity sweetness that doesn't overpower. The flavors are well-balanced, making it easy to sip on without feeling too heavy or sugary. Love the creative drinks at this place - there is a bit of a wait to order and to get drinks. Parking is hard due to shop located in a 99 Ranch plaza with lots of other popular restaurants and dessert shops. Would recommend giving this a try if you like fruit teas! read more

I thought it was my lucky day when I noticed there was barely any people in line this afternoon. Apparently the kiosk wasn't working today and wasn't accepting payments. It would have been appreciated if the workers told us ahead of time that the kiosk was out of order instead of letting people self-order like a bunch of lunatics. I tried ordering online with qr but the site kept crashing. I tried ordering in person but the female workers this afternoon didn't want to take my order since they were busy handing out orders. They were also out of my favorite drinks: matcha triple supreme and mango coconut boom. The worst part was that there were two flies latching onto peoples legs inside the store. I really like heytea though so I'll come back next time. read more

Pretty good! I know this place is popular so finally got to try. I will say the line was super long and the service is good so I'd just be patient with them since it's busy. I tried two drinks: - Cheese foam tea (less sweet): 5/5 would get again. Reminded me of happy lemon but the cheese foam was better and the tea was stronger. Getting it less sweet was the move (similar to getting 75% sweetness) - Cheese grape boom: Surprised me how good it was. I understand why it's the most popular item. Would recommend! Had fresh grape and some jelly at the bottom that was yum. Would def go again since you could taste the quality ingredients! read more

Heytea - Matcha Zen - Bubble Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

You need multiple kiosks. They are slow. On line just means your tea sits on the counter until you pick it up (you can't order while you are driving). Also, you drive by and the line looks okay but there are 10s of online teas before you. With all the tea shops it really isn't worth the wait. The served board is nice. Ugh! The wait. read more

Stopped by Heytea and tried the coconut with some blue fruit, can't remember the name super refreshing and visually stunning! The flavor was light, not too sweet, which I loved. The cheese foam on top added a creamy contrast that worked really well. I ordered through the app -- easy to use, but the wait time was longer than expected. Still, totally worth it. read more

Heytea - Coconut with some blue fruit - Bubble Tea Near Me - Irvine, California

It's definitely pricey..but I do think the tea is very good. I got the passion fruit one, which was delicious and only 70 calories?? I didn't know it came with the clear popping balls, but those were a delicious addition. Also go the house milk tea, which was really yummy. My only complaint is that if you order via the app, you can't remove the boba. They were delicious but I'm trying to cut down you know?? read more

This place is a must-visit for matcha lovers! The Matcha Zen is the standout--smooth, creamy, and perfectly balanced. This place can get quite busy, but ordering online can skip the long lines. read more

I feel like "HeyTEA" is not the appropriate name. Yes, their drinks have tea but I would not say that's the focus. It's actually really hard to taste the tea in their drinks. If you're looking for refreshing, pure tea, this is not the place. What HeyTea is good for is blended fruit drinks. I would say in the same range as Hui Lau Shan's mango drink. The drinks definitely taste good... but I find myself preferring a tea focused drink vs a smoothie like drink. I would come back but I don't think it will make it into my regular rotation. I will say that their names for drinks are terrible. I imagine some of the line, like Omomo, is caused by drinks that do not explain the name. WTH is a "boom" read more

There are plenty of parking spaces in the parking lot. As of now, there has been quite a long line, but they also have online orders available (sometimes the online ordering is closed). Inside the store has no indoor tables, but they have about 5 seats for you to sit and wait for your drink. It's really small inside, so it can get crowded. I tried the Passion Orange Blast and Coconut Mango Bloom. Both drinks were smoothie-type drinks and were pretty good, but definitely on the pricey side. The Passion Orange Blast was sour and sweet, but refreshing. It does come with jelly and crunchy passion fruit seeds. The Coconut Mango Bloom was really good and you could taste the mango more than the coconut and it also comes with sago and jelly. Recommendation(s): - Passion Orange Blast - Coconut Mango Bloom Service: 5/5 Tip(s): - No restrooms available - Plenty of parking spaces - No indoor tables - Accept Apple Pay - Sometimes the online ordering is closed read more

The speed at which the workers make the drinks here is insane and extremely efficient! You might sometimes see a huge line outside, but if you order on the app it shouldn't take over 15 minutes for a drink because they're so quick. I docked a star because I've tried around 6 different drinks here and I really only like the coconut mango boom which is soooooo good. The plaza here is pretty ass though, not because of a lack of parking but because the drivers there are maniacs (there's Tesla chargers located in the back of the plaza). read more

3.5 stars Not sure what the hype is about this place. I guess it's the new shiny thing in town to go to but I left very unimpressed. I ordered a mango sago drink and to be honest I've had better. It was good but not enough for me to come back. I won't find myself craving it. First off, there is absolutely not seating inside whatsoever. This creates loitering outside. Not having a place to sit and relax does not create for a welcoming atmosphere. Secondly, I asked the cashier very basic questions about the drinks. She seemed less than thrilled to be there. Annoyed even. So if you go in expecting great service or someone to answer your questions, look again. The only menu you'll see is the screen in front of you when you order. It would be better if they had a menu outside or something for people to look at. These little details matter! read more

But overpriced but very nice drinks. Thank you for the creativity you bring to the market.

Just an update from my previous review. Thank you making the correction and refunded my money. I appreciate it. Thank you for the good customer service. read more

I can't believe I overlooked Heytea every time I visited this shopping center! Fortunately, I don't need to drive to Rowland Heights anymore. The wait to order is under 10 minutes on a Tuesday night, which is pretty fast. The staff at the front desk is friendly and efficient. I come here for their cloud drink series, and they didn't let me down. Just a heads up, parking can get a bit tight so please be patient. read more

If you like chewing your drink, this place is for you. The mango coconut bloom and the mango dragonfruit bloom are both delicious. We asked for less ice but there was zero ice when we got it so the drink wasn't cold. Perfectly sweet and refreshing. The mango and dragonfruit bits were yummy. There was no line when we got there but people came in rushes. I recommend ordering online and picking it up if you are impatient. read more

Really loved the coconut mango sago!! This is one of their most popular items - I like that it was more liquidy and thin in consistency, the mango flavor itself tasted really sweet and really fresh! There was a bigger like but went by pretty quickly. It did take a while from ordering to get the drinks though but thinking this will improve once the hype dies down. read more

I think the menu at this location was very limited. I wanted to try new items but I don't think I will be coming back to this location.

This place is crashing and burning. I've had some REALLY good tea here. But the past few experiences have been so bad... Last time the guy behind the counter was weirdly aggressive and rude. Then when they gave me my order, it was watered down and in the "hot cup" (which is smaller?). Their jasmine matcha cloud is normally SO good, but today the matcha foam was bitter and not even mixed properly; its normally green but this time it was white? Also, has anyone noticed the back of the house is literally PACKED, like warehouse factory levels of staff, yet they only have ONE person at the front taking orders? And every time without fail theres some idiot taking 5 f-cking minutes at the counter with the ONLY employee. Its just so weird every time I go there. I dunno, i wanna like this place but I just have BAD experiences now. I think I'm done with it read more

I ordered in person and waited around 20-30 minutes for my drink (which was not too bad). l ordered the Zen Matcha Latte with boba ($8.89) For the price I expected better, however the drink had a strong creamy matcha flavor which I enjoyed. But it was very sweet personally, especially the brown sugar boba. read more

To say I'm obsessed with this place is an understatement, I crave this place everyday it's the perfect not too sweet dessert everything from their supreme bobo to their jasmine latte to their mango boom is amazing. The service is so fast even though there is a line. I recommend getting the app so you can also rack up points. The inside smells very clean. Remind me of Vietnam boba shop. They have this chain in China too very the same read more

Tried their grapefruit boom and am hookedd!! It has that refreshing citrus without being too sour, icy blend, and I personally love the grapefruit pulp in there but they're very flexible with drink customization which is a plus. Overall I like how this drink tastes tangy and clean without any artificial aftertastes - the only thing is that their wait was at least 20 minutes :d read more

First time trying Hey Tea after they opened up in replacement of Yi Fang. Yi Fang was a go-to boba place for me, but I cannot say I was disappointed after trying the new place. I recommend ordering on the app, which is very easy to do. This allows you to place your order and just pick up your drink, avoiding the long line. I placed my order and had to wait 30 minutes, since there were nearly 70 drinks before mine. While waiting, you can do some grocery shopping at Ranch 99! It makes time go by. The service is very nice amidst the busy atmosphere. They have a 0 calorie sweetener replacement, which is uncommon. The mango grapefruit bloom was creamy, refreshing, and delicious! It had little chunks of mango, agar boba, and tapioca pearls. The grape bloom was light and fruity, with actual grape chunks! I am going back to try their milk teas! Highly recommend checking it out. read more

I am very glad this tea shop has made its way to the US! My first time trying their drinks was in Shanghai, and I'm glad to see that they've kept the same high quality tea and fruit flavors in all their drinks. They've definitely expanded their menu since I first tried it, but I'm looking forward to trying everything else they have on the menu. We got their creamy cheese strawberry and mango drinks, since they're known for their cheese foam. I was not disappointed! Both drinks were great and had real pieces of fresh fruit blended in with a high quality tea, all of which paired nicely with their delicious cheese foam. This place is worth the hype. read more
