    Strawberry Matcha and Banana Pudding Matcha
    Shawnee T.

    Montea has quickly become one of my go to places for my matcha. I dream about their banana pudding matcha. lol. The ladies here are very sweet and welcoming. The seating area is very nice for the wait time. The matcha quality is really good and the aesthetic of the drink makes it truly unique. We have tried the strawberry matcha, banana pudding matcha and the coconut matcha refresher. This will be a staple location in my matcha rotation.

    House milk tea with boba
    Leonardo N.

    I got their house milk tea with boba, which tasted great, and I like the small aesthetic of the small heart too. The service was kind, fast, and accurate. The ambiance felt like a laid back boba tea shop, with some traditional style if that's the right word, and felt homey as well. I did not look at the menu in detail, but I think they only have one size only just a heads up. Overall, I highly recommend going here to stop by for a drink or to chill with some friends. At the same time, it's in a corner that's kinda out of the way of miracle mile, so it's great to support a local store too.

    Had to order the Banana matcha AGAIN, the best Thai iced tea with a side of mini pancakes
    Liane T.

    It's been another year and they are still my favorite boba shop in town! Banana matcha with grass jelly is a weekly must for me now. The owners are the sweetest people you will ever meet and they truly care about their customers. I love how they've decorated the space that is welcoming and not overwhelming. The rotating menu keeps me coming back for more to try new flavors! Quality service and quality drinks, what else can you ask for?!

    Their classic strawberry matcha is the yummiest most authentic matcha I've ever had. You're drinking it and you can't stop lol. Hands down best place in town to come get your matcha fix... Update: I also got their banana pudding matcha with brown sugar boba jelly and it didn't let me down!!! Super yummy. I love that their foam is thick and creamy. Def trying the Taro foam next on my matcha! The owner Tea is super sweet and down to earth! As well as the workers! I'm glad I came across this place on a TikTok comment section!! This definitely will be my go to spot.

    The best place to get your boba fix in Stockton. The staff goes above and beyond for their customers and it is such a quaint spot to hang out at. I got the green Thai tea and it was perfectly sweetened with just the right portion of ice. I cannot wait to try their other drinks - you can tell they have quality drinks and boba.

    i love montea my fav drinks are the winter melon, banana coffee, sweet peach, strawberry matcha, lychee lemonade, basically their entire menu. not only are the drinks so yummy, but the vibes are welcoming, staff is inviting, service is impeccable and overall everything is so aesthetically pleasing

    Vietnamese coffee with crème brûlée cold foam & with matcha cold foam
    Arha11 A.

    I got the Vietnamese coffee with matcha cold foam. The coffee was so good! My sister got the Vietnamese coffee less sweet with creme brûlée foam. I liked hers better because it was less sweet. The person who took my order was super sweet, I loved her positive energy.

    drinks of the week
    Megan D.

    A relatively new boba spot! The owner is so sweet. I love how they change up their milk tea drinks every week, it keeps things exciting. You can tell that they use high quality ingredients, and that they care about their customers. The inside was very minimal, but the decorations were so adorable. Their prices were also cheaper compared to other boba places. I'm definitely gunna come back to try other drinks, they sold out of the strawberry matcha this week but it looked so good. And those little mochi pancake puff dessert things looked delicious as well. Montea is def top tier boba in stockton as of right now!

    Ube week! Super delicious ube coffee and ube swirl(?)
    Jana C.

    I've been holding off on making this review because I didn't want it to get super crowded, but they truly deserve the recognition! Montea Boba is a small, women-owned and run shop that has a small featured menu as well as a weekly rotating menu. The owners of Montea go above and beyond to make you feel welcome, and you can tell just how much effort and thought goes into formulating the drinks. Although the store is quite small, it is decorated for every holiday and season, and it shows how much pride they take in their work. Aside from all of that, the drinks are fantastic! Each week, I look forward to my CocoMatcha and to trying a brand new drink, something I may not have even considered if they had a large overwhelming menu like other places tend to. These ladies are the best and I'm so glad I have a new favorite boba spot!

    Awesome locally owned, independent milk tea shop run by the loveliest ladies. Stopped by on our way home from Tahoe and am so glad yelpers had previously given this shop so much love. Montea offers a thoughtfully curated and creative menu of yummy milk teas. We had the green Thai tea (I've never seen this elsewhere, and I've had my fair share of milk teas!) and the creme brulee with grass jelly. Both were made fresh and the creme brulee was even properly torched. Yum. The two ladies working there (I believe owners, a pair of best friends according to other Yelpers) were so friendly and sweet. They even offered our restless kiddos some fruit snacks. The space is super clean and inviting, and even has an immaculately maintained restroom, great for those on the road and in need of a pit stop. This would be my local hangout if I was a local. Will definitely be coming back on future trips!

    Oh my God!!! This is the best spot in town to get boba. I've tried sooo many different boba spots in my lifetime and to name this one the best is crazy, but so well-deserved! The owners are so nice and welcoming, and I love how earthy and boho the inside is. Love how they have a regular menu and a rotating menu!! I recommend the creme brulee drink. TRULY the best boba drink I've ever had!!! Already looking forward to my next visit

    Hazelnut coffee
    Karen M.

    Cute little spot owned by two best friends!! Love their rotating menu! I ordered the hazelnut coffee, my husband had the strawberry matcha and he said it was the best he ever had!!! Service was fast and quick!!

This ended up in my favor, as I checked Yelp and saw a new coffee shop was opened right in my old neighborhood. It has great ratings, and I decided to stop in. The owner was working and he was super friendly. He explained the style of coffee with a specialty filtering process and a bit about the menu. He recommended a medium blend, and whipped me up a delightful coffee. I had never experienced this special filtering method but the coffee was smooth and well balanced. It was delightful. If I still lived nearby this place would be a regular stop. Clean, modern interior with nice bright windows, friendly staff, and excellent coffee. Definitely stop in and show this local business some love. The owner is really polite and has great products.

Parking is street-only, but I was lucky enough to find a spot right in front. FOOD I was expecting a larger food menu, but they only offer 1-2 rotating items for the day/week. I saw their lox bagel from photos and I was bummed they didn't have it that day so I ended up ordering the bagel sandwich (cream cheese, tomato, and cucumber) and a breakfast burrito. Both were decent, though the bagel could've definitely used more cream cheese. 3.8/5 DRINKS Ube White Mocha - 3.8/5: The flavor was there, but it could've used more coffee. Vanilla Latte - 3.8/5: Solid and enjoyable. My overall rating leans closer to a 3.8 mainly because the service was slow and my drink order was initially messed up. The barista did correct it and even let me keep the extra drink, which I appreciated. However, I was also accidentally charged twice and had to get that adjusted. Overall, it's still a nice place to stop by for coffee, and I'd be open to giving it another try.

As soon as I pull up to the menu section, she welcomes me and is ready to take the order. Staff: baristas have always been super attentive and have always answered any questions that come across. Loyalty system: I believe they have the loyalty point, only 2 baristas have asked me for my phone number to get the points from my purchase. I tend to be a bit shy, so I do shy away a little when it comes to asking to get the points from my purchase. Coffee: I have tried a variety of their options and so far I have not been disappointed.

My go to drink is a Iced-Vanilla-Latte and if I am feeling a bit tired I do ask for the extra espresso shot. The protein drinks are delicious, and one can't taste the protein in the drink, Great Job! Food / Pastries: their breakfast croissant was delicious. Perfectly warmed up and nicely packaged. I recently tried their cinnamon rolls and I will be ordering it again. It was nicely served with a fork and plenty of napkins, but it did not look nearly similar as the image in the menu. Love the ordering and serving time highly practical.

However, the quality of the food and drinks is NOT worth the price. The baristas couldn't tell us much anything about the beans they were using and the store relies mostly on cold foams and Torani syrups for flavors, which is totally fine! There's a market for that- just don't expect specialty coffee here. I wouldn't recommend ANY food besides maybe pastries. Extremely dry and zero flavor. I'm sorry this is so mean but the avocado toast is actually pitiful. You will pay $15+ for a BARELY seasoned avocado, powdered egg (?), tiny thin slice of bread, with two brown strips of bacon on it that you could make better at home (i'm so sorry but it is true). Similar with the breakfast sandwiches. Payed $50 for 2 drinks and 2 breakfast items that were essentially dutch bros quality. TLDR: Worth it if you want to hang out for the lovely seating and ambiance, just be aware that that is what you are paying for- not necessarily the quality of what your will be eating/drinking. Very yummy drinks! Just they just lean sweet. Do not buy food aside from pastries lol.
