Good drinks, goood service , great place to get a cold drink. def coming back for more

The drink was amazing. Recommend coming again. It wasn't that sweet but very flavorful

Excellent service, love the milk tea. I would recommend their shaved ice especially with the taro balls.

This was our first time at Meet Fresh. It was pretty empty when we arrived with only one person in line ahead of us. The menu is extensive and a bit confusing when deciding what to order but we went with what seemed most familiar -- Taro Ball Tofu Pudding (cold), Black Sugar Boba Milk Tea and Fluffy Black Tea. As we waited, we were surprised how quickly it got busy. The line was out the door, tables filled up, and it was standing room only while people waited for a table or their orders. Although the staff seemed to be working efficiently, it still took some time to receive our order because they were also fulfilling mobile orders. Despite the wait, everything was fresh, tasty and not overly sweet. There are many dessert options at Santa Anita mall. Meet Fresh is a great option for something light and refreshing. We'll be back to try more items. read more

I love eating at meet fresh. It was a great experience. My brother likes the egg waffle and I liked the caramel milk tea pudding. The staff was friendly and we gout our orders fast. read more

Good drinks and nice workers with good atmosphere. Cheap and nice workers nice nice nice.

Good service and amazing taste and not too sweet its amazing. I really liked it and it was epic

The employees were all kind and told me the restroom is outside to the back of the restaurant. The drink was only $6 before tax including the boba so it did not charge extra for a topping. The size and portion for $6 is a great deal! The taro paste makes the drink less sweet if that's what you're into! read more

I like the environment and the winter melon tea is tasty which is a rly good option for summer! The service is also rly good

I love the bingsu here! I always remove the kidney beans so make sure you customize the toppings if needed. It's a really convenient location in the outdoor area of the mall since they have teas and ice cream as well! read more

The boba and mochi egg waffles here are really good! Would recommend. staff is helpful too

Visitation Rights: A handful of times. Wifi: Yes, it is available. Credit Cards: They're accepted. No cash accepted! I probably think it's because of covid. Location/Parking: Located in the Promenade. Parking can be found either in the parking structure or the outdoor parking lot of the mall. Ambiance/Decor: Pretty cool ambiance and modernish decor. For now, the water dispenser is out of order. Service: Service can be a bit of hit or miss depending on the staffer. Last time, one of them just threw the dessert on the counter instead of handing it to us gently. Look like he hated his job or something. Desserts usually come out pretty fast. Dessert Of Choice: I usually get the hot grass jelly soup sans the creamer and potato balls. Soo good and soothes the tummy from the frigid air. Drink Of Choice: Wintermelon tea is pretty good here. As for no ice to maximize on the ice consumption. They fill it up to the top with no additional charge. Meet Fresh For Thought: Don't mind coming back. read more

The drink I ordered both visits were seriously fresh. I don't know how this 'Meet Fresh,' branch got 3 stars?! The barista I came across today even provided me Extra mini bobas.... I can't be drinking this stuff that much again, but I wanted to give a 'Meet Fresh,' a shot in my favorite mall, Santa Anita Mall, Arcadia, CA. I was hanging out with my Nordstrom coworkers, so we picked the meet up place here. Service was fast and efficient. I got my order fairly quickly in less than 20 minutes of a wait time. I'll be back to try something else later. read more

Meet Fresh - My drink today......2nd time here now....I'll take pics later - Desserts Near Me - Arcadia, California

Service was terrible. The employees spent the whole time talking and the order came out rushed and ugly so they could continue chatting. I'm not against chatting at work but if you're gonna talk at least put effort into the customers orders. I mean our shaved ice was falling off the sides and most of it escaped out of the bowl from how sloppy it was put together. read more

Super good desserts This is the 1st time I've had it Service was on point and a very clean establishment Wish we had one closer to home read more

I like meat fresh. But it only limited to their desert such as taro ball desert, shave ice etc. I tried their milk tea before and I don't like it. My recommendation: Taro trio : taro ball+ ice cream + machi ball, this is my favorite item from their entire menu. It never goes wrong. Taro ball is chewy and satisfying. Tips: finish the desert asap is highly suggested. Last time I found the shaved ice has melted after I got back home. I still enjoyed it but the flavor is better when just got it. Parking space is plenty. They are busy during weekend. A lot of seating area. read more

My family and I love Meet fresh for dessert in San Gabriel Valley. We usually get the coconut sago dessert bowl with sticky rice balls, jelly, and taro paste. The coconut Sago drink with QQ balls is also very delicious and refreshing. The fruit and milk consistently, I highly recommend this place. It has great service and sometimes a noisier ambiance. read more

Went there on a Thursday. Not that busy, so there was only one server upfront. The server was wonderful. He quickly greeted us and was bright and patient throughout the conversation. After we ordered, he quickly made all of our orders by himself! Super efficient! The matcha waffle was perfectly done. Hot, fresh and crispy on the edge. Oolong milk tea with mini Q was great as always! Taro balls were freshly made, and people can definitely tell from the taste and texture. Really enjoyed the passion fruit. Very refreshing for summer. (Almond pudding had a very strong taste. We really liked it but it could be a dealbreaker for those who don't like almond. just FYI) Overall, it's a good spot. Very casual and great for grab & go. I'm giving it a 4 instead of 5 because of the tables. They were quite sticky and that was the only downside. read more

This is our 5th time at this location. I was not an avid Yelper before but seeing the 3 stars review for this place is low from the experience we had in our past visits and today. We ordered an Almond pudding QT & a Mini Q Coco Sago Drink. The place was half full with patrons. We were surprised that we got a drink within two minutes. We just don't know how they made our drinks so fast. The ambience was nice and not noise like the other Meet Fresh location. Seems like everyone was enjoying their drink or desert. The almond pudding tasted favorably and with the vanilla ice cream in the mix made everything came together very well. The mini Q Coco Sago drink was very tasty too with mush taro in the drink, and the Sago made it taste so good when both combined and smashed together in my mouth. I usually don't like my drink too sweet but both drinks were not too sweet - they were just right. We will be back on our next mall visit. read more

Meet Fresh - Almond pudding QT & Mini Q Coco Sago Drink - Desserts Near Me - Arcadia, California

Great place to grab a desserts! Located upstairs in the promenade near Qin noodle and Macys. Love their taiwanese shaved ice, premium taro ice signature, and their waffle! Plenty of indoor seating. The only downsides is they serve all the food in to go containers. They no longer put the desserts in bowls, how they used to. Portions are smaller too. read more

I went there after 2pm. It only had two customers. I ordered red bean hot soup. It is not hot. It is a little warmer than my body temperature. When I bit into a sesame rice ball. It was cold. I decided to take it home. In addition, it is too sweet. After I went home and reheated it up. My husband had one spoon and told me to add something, it is too sweet. read more

On Valentine's Day, I went to Meet Fresh. I had my heart set on mango shaved ice, but they didn't have it that day, so I opted for Q mochi milk shaved ice instead. I waited for almost 45 minutes for my order. At one point, I considered asking for a refund, but I noticed the staff arguing, so I decided against it. Many people were sitting and waiting, and it seemed like there weren't enough workers, but eventually, we got our orders. When I finally tried it, I was amazed. The shaved ice was incredibly delicious--so sweet, with wonderfully chewy mochi and delightful toppings like ice cream and jellies. I wished the shaved ice came out faster so I could go back again, but the wait time was just too long. read more

My favorite place to go for dessert during the weekend. It's always crowded but the service is quick. My favorite one is pudding and Q mochi milk shaved ice. It's a huge portion and we can share for 3 to 4 people. I also try Icy taro ball and it's delicious. The dining area is clean and the ice water is available near the restroom. Very nice place to hangout with family and friends!! read more

Omg! I don't know why this place has bad reviews but I hope mine helps. I will say that ordering was awkward. The girl at the register stood there staring at me for a while until I broke the silence and asked if she was ready lol After that, she was cool and helpful. This was my first time here so I just picked something that looked good and was popular. I got the mochi and pudding shaved ice option. Sooooo good! Mochi, ice cream, caramel, two puddings, shaved ice and taro balls. I really enjoyed it. Definitely a sugar treat. But I don't eat like this often so it was a great treat! Definitely coming back to try other things. This place was clean and roomy. I even made a video for ig. I'll be posting it soon. Thanks for the first impression. See you guys soon. read more

I got the mango green tea with lychee jelly and grass jelly. It didn't blow me out of the water but it was pretty good. Sweetness just right. They were also giving out reusable boba straws for their brand anniversary. Service was ok but it was confusing where my drink was going to come out to since they didn't call my name or anything and it didn't come out for a bit even after I got the text notification that my order was ready. This would be a good place for studying or chatting with friends. read more

I was in Santa Anita Mall. We were walking in the second floor in a sunny open area in a hot day, and we saw Meet Fresh. Of course,it was perfect timing to quench our thirst. We ordered iced Taro TQ. We were excited to try our drink, since we saw the picture on Yelp for the drink which has shaved ice, mini Q , taro sauce , taro paste and vanilla ice cream. I was so disappointed with my order same as my friend. The vanilla ice cream tasted delicious although it was so little in my cup. Then came the taro paste which instead were chunks of taro!!! Not a paste at all!! The mini Q was good, now it was the shaved ice I had a bulky unfresh shaved ice!! It was overpriced drink with lack of fine ingredients. The employees in the place looked overwhelmed. Anyway, I am sure I will not go to this location again. There are many great places in Santa Anita Mall With better quality and not overpriced read more

I came here thinking I could enjoy a milk tea while I work on my laptop. I got my drink but no Wi-Fi. Door says there is Wi-Fi, and Yelp also says there is Wi-Fi, but there is no Wi-Fi available. The description needs to be fixed because that's misleading. read more

Came here on a Saturday and it was packed! Despite the long line, the orders were taken and given very quickly. Usually I'm a fan of the Fluffy teas, however I've found that the drinks can be inconsistent in sweetness. I always order 50% sweet, but the actual taste can vary. The boba itself is usually cooked well and its very chewy without being overcooked. I do like how this place has lots of indoor seating so it's a good place to take a break from all that walking! I highly recommend trying their desserts such as Icy Grass Jelly signature. Their drinks are just okay, and with so many other new boba options in the mall, the consistency isn't there. read more

The service wasn't great. No one was paying attention to the front even though we were right at the cash register. It took about 12 minutes for the girl to notice us. She was nice, but it was weird having to stand there for so long. I would definitely say that they were overwhelmed and it shows. Anyways, the inside of the store can be described as STICKY and full of trash. All tables had sugar residue as well as trash, due to them having their trash cans completely full. The side wall where they tell you to put your trays was completely full as well. Having the water station right next to it made it feel really disgusting. I understand that it's busy, but you really need to be able to monitor what's going on around the store, especially when it starts becoming a health hazard. If there isn't enough staff, hire. Have someone go clean and throw trash out if necessary. Don't just let it pile up. So I ordered a lemon honey black tree with lychee jelly, and my friend ordered the strawberry shaved ice. Our faces dropped looking at their shaved ice as it looks completely different from the picture, plus we told them we were dining in! They basically smashed the ice on top, and we had to jab our spoons in to mix it. What sucked was everything was on the bottom, and we actually had to beat the ice up in order to get there. It was honestly more like a block of ice. Because all the liquid was at the bottom, everything got melted quickly so we couldn't even enjoy it. We ended up with nasty overly sweet water. The drink wasn't good either. No lemon. It tasted like a mild sugar water with lychee jelly at the bottom. I did try to get someone's attention, but knew they were extremely busy so I let it go. I would honestly say to avoid this place and save your money. read more

Meet Leftovers: Coming from AZ,, I thought our Meet Fresh was just bad because it was not coming straight from California or trained from California. But this location here was surprisingly not good. Maybe it's not as good as it used to be. We ordered the mango berry shaved ice. It was not soft shaved ice. Clumps of ice. The strawberry and mango were frozen. Then they just put a clump of condensed milk that was frozen. And then they put a clump of ice on top. So disappointing. Looked nothing like the pictures. Never again for me unfortunately. Hope others have a better experience. read more

favorite place to go to everytime we visit the mall! i like the hot grass jelly and you can build your own and choose your own toppings
