    Banana cream coffee
    Ashley K.

    The customer service here is incredible! The two ladies working here (I didn't get their names) were so friendly and helpful. They offered samples of their cold foam coffees, which all of them were delicious. I ended up ordering the banana cream coffee with crystal boba. It had a great blend of sweetness and banana flavor. I will definitely be back to try the other drinks.

    Always down to try a new boba spot, and I stumbled upon Jungle Tea while doing some research, glad I did. As soon as we walked in, we were warmly greeted by the staff, including the manager, Tony. I've been greeted before at plenty of boba shops, but this felt different. It wasn't just a quick hello; it felt like he genuinely wanted us there to experience what they've created, not just place an order and go. We were offered samples of their new Vietnamese coffee. We tried ube, egg, and banana. All were surprisingly good, and coming from someone who doesn't usually drink coffee, that says a lot. I ended up ordering the Crème Brûlée Purple Tiger (Ube Taro), and despite how sweet it might sound, it was perfectly balanced. Not overly sweet, just right. Honestly, the customer service alone deserves 4 stars, the drink pushed it to 5. Whenever I'm in the area, this will definitely be the first boba spot that comes to mind.

    My partner and I wanted to try a new spot and stumbled upon Jungle area which turned out to be a great choice! Upon entering we were greeted by Tony who was super helpful and excited to share some of their new Vietnamese coffee drinks! I decided to get the banana cream but the egg and ube were also tasty choices! My partner went with the purple tiger Creme brûlée which was brown sugar milk tea with boba and Creme brûlée topping, soo good Customer service alone was amazing and the quality of the drinks followed right behind it, will definitely be coming back!

    Great food place with nice ambiance! The service lady or the lady on duty on that day 04/30/2026 afternoon was so kind and accommodating!

    So clean and cute!!!

    Super cute tea shop I happen to stumbled upon while I was in the mall for a dentist appointment. The service was great, the gal was patient with my indecisiveness. I order the Logan drink...so delicious! The place is nice and clean, great to hang out but problem is that there's no restroom for customers. I'll come back for sure!

    Ok the place is cute and clean staff is nice . Plenty of seating. Menu very small nothing stands out. Plenty of parking. Tea was fine boba ok. Nothing special.

    WOW this is some of the best boba i've had in SD! This is definitely a gem in the camino ruiz shopping center, so don't miss out, you may drive right past it! The shop itself is adorable and definitely abides by the "jungle" theme. The menu has all the favorites and the classics. I went with the wintermelon milk tea with boba and was not disappointed. Definitely the best wintermelon milk i've had in SD and the boba was cooked to perfection. Would definitely return!

    I'm really sad I didn't like this place after reading the reviews. It's such a cute, little boba spot and I really wanted to love it. Unfortunately, it missed the mark in nearly every way. My guy got the Avocado Smoothie, which I didn't like at all and he said it was barely passable. I got their Taro Smoothie, which had zero taro flavor and was way way too sweet. I felt like I was just drinking straight sugar. The only thing I genuinely liked was the dragonfruit popping boba. I would rather have a bowl of that than try another actual drink from here.

    Finally, I got to try this place. Nice place to chill and have a drink. I tried their dragon fruit tea with aloe Vera. It's done just right. Very tasty. I would come back and try their other drinks on menu. Would recommend

    Crème Brûlée Purple Tiger
    Sammie L.

    Crème Brûlée Purple Tiger is pretty good!Surprisingly not as sweet as I thought it'd be given that it's a crème brûlée drink. The ube and taro worked really nicely together! Staff were super sweet. Drinks took a little bit longer than the average time, but it was worth the wait! You can tell there was care put into the drink. Minus one star because it unfortunately didn't not have WiFi, so not the best to study or work :( It's still a cute little grab n go shop!

    Jungle Tea in Mira Mesa is a little boba shop with a playful, tropical palm tree theme. I ordered the taro boba and was pleasantly surprised by how smooth and well-balanced the flavor was. They have a good selection of drinks that go beyond just the classics, with some unique flavors and toppings you don't always find. One sip of that taro boba and I was sold. If you're in the Mira Mesa area and craving a fun, quick boba experience, Jungle Tea should be on your list. I'll definitely be back to try more of the fun flavors.

    Enjoyed trying this boba spot in Mira Mesa! I was in the area and spotted its great reviews on Yelp so figured I'd stop by. It's located in a small shopping center with easy parking, very inconspicuous. The inside is very cute though and seasonally decorated. I had no idea what to order but the gal working the cashier was happy to provide a few recommendations. I ended up going with the Red Tiger at her recommendation, which was some sort of strawberry drink with a crème brûlée topping. They were unfortunately out of boba when I was there so I went with the strawberry jelly topping which had a nice texture and good flavor. One small downside is that the menu doesn't list what's in the drink, which would be helpful for some of their more speciality items. However the staff is helpful and was happy to elaborate. I would definitely return to try some of their other drinks. They had "bursting dragonfruit boba" on the menu too which sounded super interesting - Next time!

    First of all, I want to say this has been one of my favorite coffee spots in san diego for years…read more The campfire mocha is amazing and worth every penny. Ive brought friends here in the past and have always gotten positive feedback afterwards. Recently though, it feels like it's lost a little of its charm. The menu needs updating because with all the crossed out items on the board, it looks a little low end and like they're out of things. But they also always seem to be out of multiple items when I come these days. There's no food options any more most of the time, but the display cases remain. And seating... it feels like they got rid of 1-2 tables and the tables that were outside. There never seems to be enough seating so it's both cramped while also empty looking now. They have these side benches to sit on, but no one ever uses them because they're not super comfortable or good to chat with anyone with. Also, the bathroom. It's usually open, but twice now Ive been in there where there's zero toilet paper or the paper towel dispenser is out, but someone has just put a roll on top to tear at your own will. I loved this place so I hate saying more negative than good. The drinks remain amazing, but for a spot that is so popular, it's losing some of its own charm.

    Me and hubby were in the area and I was craving for some desserts particularly UBE. I searched on…read moreYelp "Ube desserts" and this place appeared on TOP of the list so let's go MOTHER LOVERS!... It was located in a very INDUSTRIAL area so it reminded me of IRVINE...

There better be AC next time otherwise I'm taking away a star Because I loved the desserts so much I'm going to forgive the lack of AC this time... UBE FRAPPUCCINO: 10/10 I loved it and I wanted more! It came such a teasing little grande size and I walked VENTI size like Starbucks. I could order 2 next time. It also came with UBE WHIPPED CREAM... UBE CROOKIE & UBE BROWNIE & UBE CHEESECAKE BITES: ALL 10/10 I finished every one of them except the brownie I gave that one to my dearest LOVING MOTHER! GOD I can't wait to come back and TRY everything else in the store! SERVICE: I think they might be short staffed. I didn't see anyone when I came in but, then a cute and kind looking girl came out from the back. A+ service. I will definitely be back!!! Y'all just please kindly turn on the AC or I'm coming in my BIKINI next time ;) ROCK ON & TURN ON THE AC PLEASE ALL THINGS UBE DESSERTS!!!

    I didn't know they opened another location in Mira Mesa! This was my first time visiting this one,…read morebut I've been to other The Alleys in the past. I came here with a friend on a weekend, and it wasn't too crowded. Parking was easy to find, as the store is located in a shopping plaza. I ordered the Strawberry Green Tea with Jelly, and my friend got a mango drink with mochi. Our drinks came out super fast! I really liked my drink; however, it was rather sweet, even though I already ordered it with 50% sweetness. I would recommend adjusting/lowering the sweetness here when ordering! As far as the ambiance goes, it's rather sterile/white. The inside is smaller and limited in seating, so I can't really see myself coming here with a bigger group of friends. It seems more like a grab-and-go establishment, in my opinion. Overall, I had a pleasantly standard experience at The Alley. Nothing in particular stood out to me, both positive and negative. Solid boba spot :)

    This one kinda hurts to say but this place really fell off. I used to like it, but after this visit…read moreI think I'm done coming here, especially with how many better boba spots are around Mira Mesa. I stopped by because it's super close to the freeway and I just wanted a quick drink before heading back south. Sunday around 4:30 the music was good, the place was clean, and the workers were friendly. There's a lot of seating inside and outside, plus board games if you want to hang out or study. Ordering was easy with the kiosk too. I got a jasmine milk tea with boba and asked for less sugar and less ice. The drink came out pretty fast and the cup design was actually cute and different from what I remember. I didn't try it until I was already back on the freeway and the first sip was honestly confusing. The jasmine flavor was super faint and watered down, but then it tasted sour. Like really sour. Not in a tea way, more like something went bad. It genuinely tasted off. I couldn't even finish it. I took maybe three sips and threw the whole thing away, which sucked because I was already driving and couldn't go back. That's the main issue. With how many boba places are in Mira Mesa, you can't be serving drinks like that. If it was just bland that's one thing, but tasting sour like that feels like a bigger problem. It honestly made me question the quality. I'd skip this spot for now. There are way better and more consistent options nearby.
