    Artichoke Juice
    Alisa B.

    Hidden gem! If you're looking for some nostalgic tasting boba that tastes good, AND it's affordable too? This is the place! The menu is huge, so I wanted to try something that seemed to be really popular amongst Yelp reviews. The Sea Salt Crema was highly reviewed, so I got this with the Dark Roast Oolong Tea. Super tasty! Definitely on the sweet side. I would suggest getting this at 25%! My friends also really enjoyed the Artichoke Juice and Mango Tea from here!

    Underrated boba shop in the east side of San Jose! My friends and I decided to get some late evening boba before they closed at 7:30 pm. Though arriving at 7:10 pm, the staff were getting to ready to close shop and still took our orders! It's a warm boba shop when you come in with a cozy interior that's cat themed! There's a cute cat mirror and cat wall paining for that aesthetic picture with your boba. They have a daily special of buy 2 drinks get 1 free! Such a good deal. I got the mango tea 50% sweet with lychee jelly. Was done in 5 minutes and it was refreshing, sweet to my liking, and good! A great experience and I recommend that you should go here!

    Mango Coconut Delight
    Eric H.

    Feels like a place for younger kids so I felt a bit out of place here. There were board games and toys for kids for them to play with. I ordered the Mango Coconut Delight and it was a lot bigger than I expected. The coconut flavor was good and had bits of mango inside. I got 50% sweet but I still thought it was too sweet, perhaps because this place has a younger audience. If I came again I would opt for a lower sweetness.

    Closed on May 19 sign out their door. It would be nice if they updated that they were closed on yelp. Wasted my time and energy driving there.

    Meow Tea Mix & Black Sugar Fresh Milk
    Christina T.

    I always stop by Meow Tea when I take my brother to get a haircut. I like how Meow Tea always has the deal of buy 2 get 1. There are a few chairs for you to sit on inside and parking is kind of difficult. The shop also provides a few games that you or children can play on. The pricing is decent and very affordable. Hits: * Meow Tea Mix is a good classic boba if that's what you're looking for. It comes with grass jelly, boba and coffee jelly. I do think the regular sweet is too sweet so I always get less sweet. * Mango Coconut Delight is also very refreshing. I enjoy the mango and like how it comes with egg pudding. Final Verdict: Solid 4/5. The shop is always playing sweet and cute music. We also ordered the Black Sugar Fresh milk but I found it kind of basic and didn't stick out much. The staff is also nice and answers any questions that I may have. Although parking is a bit difficult, it is kind of worth it for the deal they offer.

    We got their honey yuzu with 50% sugar. This was very nice and refreshing. Surprised this came with jelly. A great value for $5! Would definitely come back to try their other drinks and snacks!

    Vietnamese Milk Coffee
    Ray L.

    Meow Cafe We ordered two drinks here 2 Wintermelon Aloe they had a "Buy two get one free deal" so we got a Vietnamese Milk Coffee. Drinks 5/5: The wintermelon aloe teas were rich in flavor and a great level of sweetness. The aloe was fresh and provided a great balance to the drink. The Vietnamese coffee was strong and flavorful. Since I drank the coffee the following morning after the ice melted, the cup looked a quarter empty. But it was a free drink so I shouldn't complain, but look at the photo of the unopened drink.

    Takoyaki
    Lihz P.

    Wow! I have not been here in a long time! Hands down still the best takoyaki in town and the fish ball? Yum! I honestly come here more for their food than their drinks. Minus one star for the super long wait - it took about 30 minutes for 3 food items and 3 drinks. & it was hot and stuffy inside.

    pandan waffle $4, mild pandan flavor.
    Joyce T.

    food, service, ambiance - all okay. We had the wintermelon tea, earl grey milk tea and boba tea with creme. They have B2F1 which is a good deal. Their price is decent too. We ordered pandan waffle, it's crispy outside and soft inside, very mild pandan flavor. There is no AC, it's kind of warm inside. They have some board games which is good to kill time while waiting for the food and drinks.

    Calamari heads
    Amanda D.

    Always come here for the avocado smoothie. Hidden gem in san jose. Their snacks are also delicious. Recommend to try the calamari heads. The shop is clean. Staff are friendly and flexible.

    Matcha with mango slush, watermelon slush + boba, matcha slush
    Jiamei L.

    My favorite boba place in San Jose!! They usually have a buy 2 get 1 free deal and the drinks are so affordable. They have one of the largest menus I've seen with lots of variety and customization. They have a nice TV where they play music videos or movies. At my last visit, we ordered: - matcha with mango slush - matcha slush - watermelon slush All drinks are incredibly delicious and refreshing! The drinks are always good quality. They never miss!! I definitely recommend everyone to visit Meowtea in SJ.

    6/20/2026 Lacaphe…read morewas our last stop of the day, and I'm so glad we ended here! The place was packed, but the line moved quickly. We ordered the Saigon Freeze, Muoi, and COCO Freeze. My Saigon Freeze was hands‑down the best--like a super tasty Frappuccino. My sisters got the Muoi, which was really good but a little strong, and my sister's boyfriend got the COCO Freeze, which wasn't my favorite only because I'm not a coconut person. There were plenty of places to sit, and the vibe was super chill with a mix of families and people just hanging out. Everyone kept talking about how good my drink was--it really was that good! If I'm ever in San Jose again, I'm 100% coming back just for that Saigon Freeze.

    TIME: Came here around 3:00 pm on a Sunday (Father's Day) was fairly busy but it wasn't overflowing…read moreas I thought. PARKING: Lots of parking inside a plaza, but could be very hard to find a space if it is super busy. PLACE: Spacious & lots of tables and chairs to sit at, you place your order on a kiosk or you can order through the cashier. You pick up at the counter, and they send a text when it's ready but if it's busy they just call your name instead. DRINKS: Lychee - wasn't super sweet since I chose 50% but great lychee taste and there's lychee inside of the drink! Kumquat - My mouth got numb after lol but it was super good, reminds me so much of calamansi. Decent place to get some coffee or drinks!

    Omg!!! I this this place outdid some of my favorite matcha places. I went in not expecting too much…read morebut was SO SO satisfied. My friend and I ordered the guava matcha (with cream) and strawberry matcha and both the drinks were delicious. Most places I do to I usually like only 1 drinks and not both that I get but both of them were extremely delicious. For the guava matcha, I was slightly disappointed and taken aback that they charge more for the guava cream but usually most places include it in the drink already but I def recommend getting it. It is definitely on the pricier side with my drink being close to $10 but it's sooo worth the try. The cream was so thick and creamy and their matcha is incredibly smooth. My friend got the strawberry matcha and that was so flavorful as well. Most times when I order starberry matcha the flavor is bland but hers was reallly good. It was a little hard to sip it through the straw though because of the syrup. The server there was extremely sweet as well. I didn't catch her name but I think she had an eyebrow piercing (?? Maybe??) but she was extremely helpful and made conversation. Loved the customer service. I also saw the workers who were making my drink take their time and care with it and measure everything properly with scales and everything which was great to see. And it's a cute small spot there which was so pretty. I RECOMMEND I need to go again once I get my money up tho

    Came around 8:30 am on a weekday and it wasn't too busy. Service was friendly and pretty quick…read more -Banana cream matcha (4/5): the banana cream was yummy and not overly sweet or artificial tasting, matcha was a good strength -Guava cream matcha (2/5): guava flavor was strong and fragrant but overpowered the matcha, I'm not the biggest fan of guava but wanted to try cause it was unique

    So, I live for coffee. I roast it, buy it, sell it, cup it, pack it, ship it, mix it, blend it…read more.. you name it. So when I travel, I'm usually hauling around an arsenal of brewing gear like some caffeinated survivalist. And yeah... I'm picky AF. I like what I like. So if you're gonna serve me coffee, it better show up dressed in a suit and tie. In this case, it absolutely did. I had to give the local spot near Grandma's house a shot. I walked in with crossed fingers and low expectations, but walked out with a satisfied palate, a smile, and an eagerness to visit again soon. This is NOT your run-of-the-mill coffee shop. They roast onsite. Real deal, Holyfield. I started with an espresso. Then a cortado. Then grabbed a bag of Yirgacheffe to go because I gotta see what else they got going on. . These guys clearly know what they're doing; and if they don't, they accidentally perfected it anyway. The espresso was balanced, clean, and intentional. Nothing hidden behind over-roasting or gimmicks. Just refined quality coffee handled correctly. I'm genuinely glad spots like this exist, and even happier one sits right here near my fam. Seriously, can't wait to visit again.

    My husband and I took a quick work coffee break and decided to drive over to Moonbeam Cafe. We've…read moreactually been here before and came back specifically because their coffee is genuinely excellent. This time, however, the experience was a bit mixed. The drinks were still top-notch--we really enjoyed them, and the Mediterranean bagel was also fresh and delicious. Quality-wise, they absolutely deliver. That said, the customer service unfortunately didn't match the level of the coffee. The cashier interaction felt curt and low-energy, and overall not very welcoming. When my husband asked about their most popular specialty drink, she mentioned the "Milky Way" and compared it to a Starbucks macchiato--which felt like an odd comparison for a specialty coffee shop that otherwise seems to take pride in its craft. More than anything, the interaction came across as disengaged and a bit uninterested, which stood out because places like this usually shine in both product and service. We'll likely still come back for the coffee and food, but I do think the service experience matters a lot--and this visit didn't quite meet expectations on that front.
