    Ming Cha is a really solid spot and easily one of the better tea places in the area. The first thing you notice is the aroma--the tea smells incredible even before you take a sip. The drinks themselves are very tea-forward, which we personally love. You can actually taste the quality and depth of the tea rather than just sweetness, and that really sets it apart. We got their jasmine milk tea, and it's a standout for us. It's one of our personal favorites, and they executed it really well--fragrant, smooth, and balanced without being overly sweet. The space is very aesthetic--clean, modern, and thoughtfully designed. It's a pleasant place to stop by, even if you're just grabbing something to go. Pricing is relatively reasonable for the quality you're getting. It's not the cheapest, but you can tell you're paying for better ingredients and execution. It is a self-service setup, so interaction with staff is minimal, but everything runs smoothly and efficiently. Overall, Ming Cha is a must-try if you're in the area. Great tea, great atmosphere, and a place we'll definitely be frequenting.

    I was passing through the city of Walnut and wanted to grab a quick drink. I loved this little boba shop! They sell a bunch of cute items like stickers and other merch, and the drinks were delicious. What stood out to me was that they offer unique boba options like highland barley and water chestnut, which were very interesting to try. I got the Ube Osmanthus and loved the taste. It was refreshing and not overly sweet. I would definitely come back if I'm in the area again.

    Ming Cha is such a cozy cute cafe with lots of cute decor. The cafe is small but has some seating area and some board games to play with as well. Parking is shared with other businesses but there were enough areas for parking. The staff were super friendly and on point. Had assisted with some recommendations since we were quite indecisive with our choices because there were too many good options. Got to try: - Roasted Black Sesame - Jasmine Matcha - Omanthus Oolong Milktea - Mango White Peach! The drinks were light, refreshing, and wasn't too sweet; it paired well with the cream tops. Would love to try some of their other items in the future!

    came here for drinks and ended up liking everything we ordered. the cheesy taro was definitely the standout for me because the foam was AMAZING. the white peach milk tea was lighter and refreshing, and the mango yuzu fruit tea had a nice citrusy flavor. also tried the mango jasmine lassi which honestly sounded questionable at first but somehow worked lol. drinks felt balanced overall and not too sugary. Loved the service and its a cute space to hangout!

    Decided to give this place another chance since they were having their BOGO. It's a very clean small place with no seating. There is plenty of parking since it's located in a plaza. As you enter the door, the tea smell is captivating. However, the drinks were okay; nothing spectacular which is how I felt the first time I came when it opened. I ordered the Earl Grey Milk Tea (less ice) and Yuzu Grapefruit (no ice) both half sugar. They were drinkable but tasted bland. The server was friendly but way understaffed especially during a BOGO event. I don't think 3rd time coming will be a charm.

    Service was excellent. The staff was friendly, patient, and took the time to answer questions and give recommendations without rushing me. It was small but very cute on the inside, with pictures of happy customers hanging everywhere. I tried the mango milk, white peach mango tea, strawberry matcha, and roasted black sesame. All of them were really good. The mango milk was not overly sweet, the white peach mango tea was refreshing, and the strawberry matcha was well balanced. The roasted black sesame was my favorite, rich and different than any drink I've had before. Everything tasted fresh and well made. I'd definitely come back.

    OVERALL : When I walked into this shop and smelled the tea right away, I KNEW it was gonna be good! The shop was small and minimal, yet there were lots of people hanging out / chatting and enjoying their drink, which was a good sign. They're known for their tea-forward drinks and extra fluffy cloud tops that I've yet to see at any other boba / tea shop in my area. Service was fast + friendly and the self-ordering kiosks with photos of the menu items made it easy to order. I genuinely enjoyed every drink I got and am excited to come back and try more. They had some unique drinks that I don't know where else I would go to find! Bonus points for being not too sweet. PARKING : Small parking lot shared with other businesses in the plaza, but still many spots left on a Saturday afternoon. I did not have any issues w/ parking! FOOD/DRINKS : Double Matcha - matcha latte on bottom with matcha foam on top. Not too earthy, no clumps or powdery taste. 75% sweet was perf for me! Roasted Black Sesame - milk tea on the bottom was light and fragrant, loved the black sesame cloud and top. not too strong once mixed into drink though. 75% sweet Mango White Peach - Mango cloud with white peach tea, 75% sweet. The mango flavor just comes from the foam, but you can taste it slightly more if you mix it in. Lychee Osmanthus - frangrant with balanced lychee flavor, 50% sweet was perf Mango Jasmine Lassi - a very unique drink! creamy with strong mango flavor, but you can still taste the tea. 75% sweet

    Decided to give this spot a visit and it did not disappoint! The ambiance is cozy even though the store is small but it does have some seats and even some games if you're here with friends. I got 4 drinks: double matcha, lychee osthmanthus with lychee jelly, white peach oolong with boba, and the roasted black sesame milk tea We got all drinks at recommended 75 sweetness and it was the perfect amount. the drinks were light, not too heavy if you're looking for a post dinner sweet treat. My favorite was the lychee osmanthus and ryan's favorite was the black sesame. Mingcha is celebrating their one year anniversary with an event! From jan 24-25 they're having a BOGO deal and the first 100 guests on both days get to pick 2 free merch from pickleball paddles, tote bags, and more! so make sure to check them out for some yummy treats and fun goodies!

    My first visit was wonderful. I had to return for round two. Ming Cha is located within the Lemon Creek Village in Walnut. Free parking is available. I ordered via the self-ordering kiosk. It was very quick and easy. Ambiance was bright and clean. They have merch for purchase. No restrooms. This time around, I tried the Dubai Chocolate Latte which was amazing with the perfect amount of sweetness. I got it hot and it was the best! SO VERY GOOD!! Please let it cool down just a tad before drinking it. I got the Mango Yuzu Refresher for my eldest daughter. It was good, too, but not as great as the latte. Just a bit citrusy for our taste. I would get the latte again over the refresher for sure. Young man behind the counter was busy making the drinks. He was heads down most of the time. I didn't have any eye contact or interaction with him which was perfectly fine. I just grabbed our drinks when they were done. Thank you Ming Cha for coming up with some unique flavors and sharing with us! We'll be back!!

    Tried Ming Cha and I'm honestly impressed. I ordered the double matcha jasmine green milk tea and the mango yuzu, and both were super refreshing in their own way. The double matcha jasmine green milk tea had a really nice balance -- not overly sweet, and you can actually taste both the earthy matcha and the floral jasmine without one overpowering the other. It felt clean and smooth, not heavy like some milk teas. The mango yuzu was my favorite though -- bright, citrusy, and perfect if you want something light. The yuzu gives it that extra tang that makes it stand out from your typical mango drinks. Service was quick and the drinks tasted fresh. Definitely a spot I'd come back to.

    Being a huge fan of oolong tea, I've been excited to try Ming Cha. It's located near Donut Tree with plenty of parking available in the front or back area. The shop is bright and clean with ordering two ordering kiosks. The menu itself isn't extensive. That's usually a sign that a shop takes pride in each of their menu offerings. I opted for the mango yuzu refresher because I felt like having fruit flavor. Drinks only come in one size. I could tell they use natural flavors because I selected 0% sweet. If they used syrup flavorings, it would be just sweet enough for me, but it wasn't really sweet at all. Nonetheless, it was light and tasty. The tea flavor was present, smooth, but not overpowering. Overall, I think this place is quite good if you like smoother, milder tea flavors.

    Discovered this place through a Yelp event. So glad I visited. Luckily it's in my neighborhood and has become my goto place for boba type drinks. Small but nice looking interior. They've decorated well with little knick knacks around the store. Servers here are very friendly and welcoming. Order through the kiosk and they'll start working on your drink immediately. So far all the drinks I've tried here are made well and delicious. They know how to use their foam gun! My favorite drink is the black sesame with barley boba. It's a different flavor that's hard to get anywhere else. You can really tastes the black sesame flavor in the foam - recommend mixing the drink before drinking. The barley boba is also different and not too sweet - which is to my liking. So glad this place is in my neighborhood. I end up going almost every week!

    Love the ambience of this boba shop and the staff were super nice! Here's what I got and loved the fluffy cloud topping that came with the drinks. Such a cute presentation! - ube osmanthus - cheesy mango lassi - double matcha - black roasted sesame My favorites were the cheesy mango and double matcha! This boba shop is pretty tucked in the neighborhood in Walnut but definitely worth the drive. Can't wait to drink their other drinks if I'm ever in the area again!

    Delicious! They are not on the sweeter side so if you like sweetness then get that 100 lol

    See all

    Do the lattes and milk teas contain diary? Is there a non-dairy option for us lactose intolerant people?

    We use our house milk which does contain dairy but we can replace it with oat milk which will be an extra charge.

    Absolutely disgusting experience at Auntie Tea…read more We ordered 2 Mango Pomelo drinks and 1 Strawberry Daifuku. The drinks were already overpriced at over $8 each, and because tipping is OPTIONAL, we chose not to tip. The employee at the front with arm tattoos already had a bad attitude and the whole interaction felt uncomfortable from the start. The next day, I went to finish one of the drinks and while drinking the toppings, something thick blocked the straw. I thought maybe it was fruit or pudding, so I opened the sealed lid, only to find a rolled up strip of RECEIPT PAPER stuffed inside the drink. There is absolutely no reasonable explanation for how a rolled receipt ends up INSIDE a sealed drink. This did not accidentally "fall in." It looked intentionally rolled and shoved in there. What makes it even worse is this location mainly uses text/SMS receipts, so there is no way this came from me. Receipt paper contains toxic chemicals like BPA and hormone disrupters and should NEVER be anywhere near food or drinks. I'm honestly disgusted and shocked that this even happened. I already reported this location to the health department and contacted corporate because this is beyond unacceptable. If employees are going to retaliate over not receiving a tip by tampering with customers' drinks, people seriously need to avoid this place.

Really reminds me of the mochi back in China and Taiwan. I honestly can't stop ordering the black sesame flavor.

The "milk mochi" texture was really odd to me--it's not something I'm used to. It's not chewy like regular mochi; it's soft like pudding but stretchy. That alone made the bowl hard to get used to. The Summer Serenade was refreshing because of the fruit, but it lacked sweetness. The whole bowl tasted only mildly sweet. The grass jelly bear was cute, but it also lacked sweetness. The coconut pudding bear was better--the texture and flavor were good. The Twilight Pearls had a lot of slimy textures. The taro and black rice felt heavy together, and everything combined felt overly soft and didn't blend well. I would not recommend this. I wouldn't come again. Maybe it's a good dessert for others, but it's not for me. I couldn't finish the Twilight Pearls--it felt like a waste of money.
