    Strawberry Banana Smoothie.
    Anna B.

    Despite the bland, unfriendly customer service from the guy taking my order, my Strawberry Banana Smoothie was very good and the perfect level of sweet. It reminded me of Surf City Squeeze's smoothie with this same flavor, so nostalgic. Drink was ready very quickly which was great, but they need to improve their customer service.

    COVID-19: Social distancing is not enforced at this establishment. Some of the staff wears a mask. All customers are not expected to wear a mask. It's optional now. The staff also wears gloves when handling food. There are some hand sanitizers available for customers to use. This place has some indoor & outdoor seating available with no limited capacity since it's located inside a mall. They are not sanitizing in between customers. I mention these things in my reviews for the sake of protecting immunocompromised people like the elderly and people sick with cancer and other illnesses. COVID-19 Vaccination Proof: This establishment currently does not require proof of vaccination. While I was grabbing my drink from this establishment several days ago, I asked if they had any special offers and they weren't offering any at the moment. They currently don't have happy hour. They also do not allow pets in their establishment UNLESS it's a service animal. It's the mall's policy. Parking: The parking lot for this establishment is fricken massive since it is located inside a mall. Lots of parking spots for you to choose from. Be careful because some spots are smaller than others. Drink: I ordered a large passion fruit green tea without boba. It's so refreshing, tasty, and tropical. It combines green tea's earthy notes with the sweet-tart flavor of passion fruit. A very yummy drink. Staff: The staff here are very fast, welcoming, and kind. They accept both cash and credit cards. There is no credit card minimum.

    Tiger sugar milk tea

    I have heard of the it's boba time chain, but have not thought much about going until my mom suggested to try. We shared the tiger sugar milk tea drink after receiving a recommendation from the barista. After waiting for 10 minutes in a not so busy time of day, we got our drink. Despite requesting less sugar for our drink, I was still convinced that this drink had 100% sugar (perhaps I ordered wrong too). In addition, this boba drink was not great value. Within the Santa Anita mall, I would encourage others to visit other boba shops for a better experience.

    My experience here was positive. The drinks were satisfying. This business is a kiosk located inside the food court inside the Westfield/Santa Anita mall. Seating/tables are available in the vincinity.

    This location wasn't as warm and inviting as other Boba time locations. They said they can no longer split a large into two cups which was annoying, considering other locations happily spit one drink. I ordered the new banana matcha and it was ok. Nothing memorable or special to make me want to reorder.

    I got the matcha latte 50% sweet and it was perfect. This location is at the food court at The Santa Anita Shops in Arcadia. So it does get very busy on the weekends. I was pleasantly surprised that a boba shop like this one had decent matcha. The ambiance was noisy and loud.

    Great service! Great drinks. Located inside the Santa Anita mall by the food court. We parked on the south side by Cheesecake Factory and valet parking. Through the entrance is the food court, it's located in a center kiosk behind the construction area for kura sushi on the first floor. Drinks come with a free boba scoop. With plenty of boba options at this mall, this is a convenient, quick and easy choice. Would definitely return to try more of their menu.

    Delicious Watermelon Slush
    Ann A.

    My nephew introduced me to this place. He decided to treat us at It's Boba Time. He bought everyone a large Watermelon Slush, except for his Dad. All but my brother started laughing. My brother received a taste of his own medicine. My prankster brother got punked! This place has interesting beverage choices, but I always order their Watermelon Slush. This evening I saw that they had an Oreo Thai Iced Tea. I love Thai Iced Tea, and I like Oreos without the cream in the middle. I'll continue drinking my Watermelon Slush.

    It's Boba Time is never my favorite boba shop. Maybe quickly level, so I rarely ever get it. But it was nearby so I went anyway. Plus they're usually on the cheaper side...but nope maybe not anymore. Got the new watermelon passion drink. It's special comes in the fancier cup. 7 bucks. Pretty much sugar water. Very sweet. Maybe should've stuck with their top 5 item? Strangely number one is thai tea with boba. If you're highschooler or younger probably ok with it. That's why the are located where they are. This boba shop is located in the food court area.

    peach lychee fruit tea at 50% sweetness is perfect
    Delfin T.

    Was originally gonna get a boba drink from another boba shop but after I placed my order, the cashier said they don't have any boba. I could never understand how a boba shop runs out of boba... specially when they still have half a day to go. Anyway... I decided to find another boba shop in the same mall & found this place. I ordered the peach lychee fruit tea at 50% sweetness. The tea was good... and the boba was perfect... soft on the outside with a chewy sweet center. Only thing I wish is that they have actual fruit bits in their drinks.

    We came here after dinner from Marugame Udon and can't really have caffeine at night so I ordered the colorful lemonade drink which is super similar to the one from Twinkle Tea. Service was quick and it was a satisfying drink!

    Been a while since we've been to this it's boba time location at the mall. They relocated to the food court area. It used to be near the old Forever 21 location. We ordered the taro milk tea with boba & milk tea. Both were okay, not rave-worthy. Pretty quick service, despite having a long line. Will come back to try their other featured drinks. Fun fact: Their taro milk tea is a lower price than Lollicup (which is one of the other boba booths near the food court area).

    Located in the Food Court area of the Shops at Santa Anita. They have an extensive menu of milk teas, iced teas, smoothies, slush, and shakes for very reasonable prices. I ordered the Galaxy Iced Tea and Strawberry Milk Tea. They were delicious and I really liked the details of the jellies in the Galaxy drink (fruity drink).

    Ahhhh I use to love coming to robeks!! But then they…read morestarted getting to expensive for a smoothie :( I came here recently just because I had a $5 off smoothie for a bday! So I thought they were the prices from the last time I had came which yes was awhile ago so I thought it's pay like $2-3 extra after being deducted the $5! Oh boy well that wasn't the case ahahahah They raised their prices even more! Kinda obsurd. So I get the Tropic-Kale which is on the wellness side & so now a medium is $10.49 & the large is now $11.99.... Wow. It's just crazy to think of spending $12 for a smoothie. I only came in for the coupon so ended up still spending like $7 hahah crazy. Yes my smoothie was good but damn these prices are kinda outrageous these days:( Will probably be my last smoothie trip for awhile. Can make multiple good ones at home for the price

    I was fasting this day, so I went with the Evergreen juice (Cucumber, celery, kale, spinach, apple…read moreand lemon) it was good... I could taste the lemony in the juice. I also ordered the Açaí Energizer smoothie (Strawberries, Blueberries, Pineapple Sherbet, Frozen Yogurt, Acai Juice, Energy, Multi-Vitamin, Whey Protein) it was filling and I was ok to skip the caffeine this morning. I was traveling and the juice most definitely kept me alert without the jitters. I ordered online, my order was ready according to time promised. The place was clean. I asked for water, the girl behind the counter didn't miss a beat.

    This is a late review from last December. But it's all good! Service was excellent and the premises…read morewere pristine. I always enjoy the food I order at Pressed. I will however say that the Peppermint Sundae (only available during the holidays) may not be satisfying to most. It's super healthy, don't get me wrong, and it has all the accoutrements like sprinkles of candy cane and tiny marshmallows but the chocolate isn't as creamy as you would expect. Of course! It's made of healthy stuff. But just a gentle warning to those who expect it to taste like a sundae - it won't. It's still a treat though! I love Pressed's other products like their juices. Everything tastes so pure as if they were pulled straight from Mother Nature's teat. Love this company.

    A clean little juice bar right by the food court with a chill vibe and quick service…read more ::Drinks:: Love the gut-health juice, light, fresh, and exactly what I wanted after walking around. Their cold-pressed juices feel clean and light. Greens 3 is easy and smooth, and Greens 2 brings a little more flavor, making them both enjoyable to sip. ::Food:: Their acai bowls are my go-to. I like the cowboy colostrum, acai protein, beauty, acai power, and the original acai bowls. The açaí bowls taste fresh and feel light but still filling. They also have dairy-free soft serve. ::Customer Service:: Huge shoutout to Daniella! She was super friendly and gave great service the whole time. She helped with recommendations and made the visit extra enjoyable. ::M's Notes:: - Indoor and outdoor seating - Parking lot and parking garage
