Mango Passionfruit Jasmine Green Tea
Vanity V.

OONA is a cute little boba shop located within the Claremont District. After work, I wanted something refreshing after an 8-hour shift. OONA has kiosks that take your orders which I appreciate. Every time I try a new boba place, I try my favorite thing to rate them fairly: a mango passionfruit green tea with crystal jelly. This shop is a little pricy, my order was a little over $8 including tax. However, the serving size is generous. There was a lot of seating on the inside and a few seats on the outside. My drink was ready within a few minutes. To get my drink, they just called out my name. I really enjoyed the crystal bobas from this place, by far the best crystal jelly I've had. The drink was good, it was nothing out of this world but it was a nice refresher to have after work. I'll definitely be coming here again with these 8-hour workdays. They have a good variety on their menu too. Alongside boba, they sell bento boxes and more food. They offer a lot of toppings for the boba and flavors. This is the best boba house in the Claremont village by far. I appreciate how fast the service is and how easy it is to order.

Filipino inspired food and drinks... count me in. It's great to see a Filipino inspired place in Claremont. We ordered the mango sago, and two drinks. We had it with the pink boba and it was great. Not too sweet and has a good chew. Service was quick and efficient. They also gave us sample of the ube mochi, which was not too sweet and was still light. I need to try their calamansi based drinks next time.

Ube milk

We walked here after lunch when we were in the area, and I'm glad we did! The owner is so sweet and caring! While we were waiting for my drink, the owner came out with samples of one of their desserts (mango mania--delicious!) for everyone waiting. I ordered an ube milk at 25% sweetness, and when the owner brought it out for me, she told me she could adjust the sweetness if needed. It was actually perfect for me!

Love the dirty boba matcha tea and spam balls the ladies who work here are amazing always busy and make sure each order and experience is perfect love this shop definitely a must try!!!

Stopped by OONA Boba House in Claremont for some bubble tea and it was a really fun, casual spot to grab a drink. They've got a great variety of milk teas, fruit teas, and unique refreshers -- plus lots of topping options to customize your order and snack food options too.

Was working in the area and stopped in for a boba slushie in the afternoon. It's a cute little shop with a decent sized seating area and a few outlets to plug in. The windows face the downtown area so it's a great place to study and get a sweet treat. You can order on the Ipad or at the counter with a person and I chose the counter. I went with a simple passion fruit slushie with boba and it was ready pretty quickly. I enjoyed my slushie in the store whilst scrolling on my phone and it was a nice break. Definitely will try their milk teas next time.

Another hidden gem at the Claremont Village. They just opened last year, and I didn't know about it until a friend told me to try it out. It's a cute boba place. They have a good selection of drinks, snacks and meals. Service was quick, and their prices are reasonable. I had Jasmine green tree (50% sweetened) with crystal boba. I will come back and try other things and give another review, but so far, so good. Worth checking out when in the area.

Anything mango is a 10/10!
Vilma V.

This is a cute and clean place with a wide variety of menu items. Although they have a self-ordering kiosk, they have a friendly staff in case you have questions. I always ask for suggestions because there's so much on the menu that I can't decide. I've tried their matcha, iced teas, iced coffee, "mojitos," smoothies, pandan, pancit, chicken wings, fish, bento box, and other Filipino treats (my fave). The food is well-seasoned, crispy and fresh and they never skimp out on sauces. They always ask if you'd like certain items mild or spicy, which I appreciate. Oona also has THE VERY BEST LUMPIA in the entire area (I have tried several), that is what I always recommend along with SHRIMP TEMPURA!Next time you visit, ask them if they have any special menu item that day... sometimes they have turon (fried banana rolls) and other fun dishes. My only regret is that I forget to take more pictures because I get so excited to just eat. High key, I wish they were a whole full-service restaurant so I could go for breakfast, lunch, dinner and a sweet treat

Oolong Milk Tea
Annie H.

This boba shop is under new ownership. It used to be called T&Joy. I ordered the oolong milk tea with less ice, brown sugar boba, and 25% sweetness, and the drink was extremely sweet for me. The employee was kind enough to remake my drink for me after I let him know that I prefer my drinks to be less sweet. The boba and milk tea quality wasn't the best, but it will hit the spot. They've received a higher rating from me for their stellar customer service.

Green grape tea and strawberry mango mojiteo
Kailyn M.

I really hope everyone gets a chance to stop in. The owner is incredibly sweet and you can tell she really loves what she does. They offer different Philippine style foods on Saturday's and even offer catering if you call ahead. The store is very cute. We got the seasonal grape tea and the strawberry mango mojiteo. I can't specify enough how sweet she is and it was a pleasure talking with her.

Passion green tea with pink boba, passion fruit jelly, jelly cake, and popping boba!!!

It isn't the best I've ever had, but I'd say it's the best I've tried in Claremont. However, the wait times can be pretty ridiculous... I just stopped by at 9:30am today, and it took me about 30 minutes to get my drink and find a place to sit. Also, there is very limited seating. My biggest issue, though, is the hospitality. Unfortunately, I've had multiple experiences where the baristas come across as dismissive and noticeably less friendly towards me. I've also noticed what feels like a pattern of differential treatment toward Asian customers. (As an Asian customer myself.) I've seen baristas casually chatting with white customers in front of and behind me, only for their demeanor to change when interacting with me. I can't speak to their intentions, but having experienced this more than once over the past two years, it's something I've found difficult to ignore. Their drinks are good enough to keep me coming back, but the long waits and inconsistent hospitality take away from the experience.

The shop is big and was full of people hanging out or working when I arrived, so no seats were available. It was also like a library, so quiet, no background music playing. It would've been a better vibe if there was some kind of music, it felt kind of weird to be in a coffee shop with no noise. I decided on the hot Caramel Turtle Latte because it sounded different and I've never tried a latte flavor like that before. Their pastries are brought in from a local bakery and looked yummy so I had to have a chocolate croissant too. While I waited I looked around and saw that they have coffees beans for sale, where they donate $1 per bag to the local charity that is listed on the coffee bag: Ability First, Inland Valley Hope, and The Joseph Project. I love that they support the local community! My latte was so good, and while my croissant was pretty good, I didn't like that it was warmed up in the microwave. It made what looked like a crispy croissant soft, flat, and soggy. I wish they could've baked it in a toaster oven or something so that it comes out flaky.

They're also dog-friendly, which was a big plus for us, and the cashier was super friendly. They offer a wide range of drinks along with a seasonal menu. I tried the "Just a Girl" coffee, which was solid overall. It wasn't overly sweet, something I appreciated, though the espresso had a noticeably more acidic flavor than I personally prefer. It didn't ruin the drink , but if you favor a smoother, lower-acid coffee, that's worth keeping in mind. We also picked up a couple of doughnuts, and they were excellent. With the welcoming service, dog-friendly atmosphere, fresh doughnuts, and convenient Downtown Claremont location, this is a fun spot to visit--especially if you enjoy pairing your coffee with a great pastry.

There are a few different seating options (communal table, couch, smaller tables, on the stage...and more) and it is a great place to socialize, work, or just relax. My all time favorite drink is the bowl of soul with coconut creme tea (hot). It originally comes with Earl grey (I think) but the coconut tea adds a sweet flavor that I personally enjoy. The tea steeps in hot soy milk and is flavored with honey and cinnamon. Drinking it truly feels like "a bowl of soul". It's great on a cold or rainy day and it always lightens my mood. Highly recommend! In the summer, I really like the get the "make your own smoothie". It is especially good with granola and honey! Tastes like a blended fruit bowl! It's amazing. A crowd favorite is also the matcha cha cha which is just a matcha latte (hot or cold). You can also tell them to add different flavors to it! I've heard the white chocolate syrup is good with that. Another yummy treat to try is their bagels (+cream cheese)!! I don't know what it is, but the bagels at the motley are delicious. You can toast them up yourself on the counter to the right of the cashier. I personally like the cinnamon raisin or blueberry but they have many many sweet and savory flavors. They also have a student bake-off every semester where the winners get to sell their goods in store. These are often very very good so definitely worth a try if you see it in the display case!

Almond Haus was a no-brainer. Not only did they provide full-service catering, but their boba milk teas were legitimately some of the best we've ever had.

It's not awful, but it tastes frugal. I arrived at Almond Haus Cafe (Claremont) on Sunday (around 12:20PM). Parking is easy. The lot is very big. My immediate impression of the location's interior is "abandoned warehouse." There's cardboard boxes lying about; the lights are dim & gloomy; and the furniture & walls looked old and poorly maintained. There were no customers, other than myself. Staff zipped out from the back when I'd entered. There's no self-service kiosks, so customers order at the counter. Staff is friendly and welcoming. After receiving my drink, Staff vanished into the back for the entire time. The drink took one minute and six seconds. Fast!! As mentioned, the Brown Sugar Milk Tea ($5.50) with Boba (additional 79 cents) is not awful. It's big, cheap, and thirst-quenching. Although the boba lacked any perkiness, I did appreciate its very small sweetness. Concerning the ambiance, it felt sad. Chairs had mysterious black stains, dust & webs gripped the windows' corners, yellow & aged plants lazed about, and lights stayed dimly lit like a haunted house. However, there's utility. Almond Haus Cafe (Claremont) has six electrical outlets. There's also customer internet with password; details on the plastic countertop. And there's a restroom for customers. In addition, the floors and tables are fairly clean. Overall, Almond Haus Cafe (Claremont) feels like a forgotten relic of time. At the very minimum, it's an adequate establishment. If you're searching for affordability and a place to study/work, there's potential. 3.3 out of 5
