    You know their boba is good because it's a chain but I appreciate this location so much because they are very accommodating. We arrived late and they were packing up but I had to get my boba fix and they let me place my order.

    Stopped by closer to closing time so we were the only customers there. The cashier greeted us and answered all of our questions. I loved the Ice Blended Strawberry drink, it comes with a scoop of ice cream. It's soo good! I will be ordering again next time. They have some board game available if you want to hang out inside. There's plenty of seating and they have a bathroom for customers inside.

    Strawberry Coconut Ice Blend with lychee

    Strawberry coconut ice blend with lychee is so good and refreshing. Their lychee is chewy and has great flavor. The service is quick and always consistent. Cute and clean place. Will be back!

    Love this place . Good vibes after target.clean good food options near by . Kids love the drinks . Service is quick.

    This place is my go-to for boba drinks, and everything I've tried has been amazing! Their Okinawa milk tea is perfectly balanced and super flavorful, and their Thai tea is rich and refreshing. But my all-time favorite has to be the QQ Happy Family. It's packed with boba, pudding, grass jelly, lychee jelly, and red beans. It's like a party in a cup! I usually ask to leave out the red beans since I'm not a fan, but even without it, it's absolutely delicious. The drinks here are consistently great, and the workers are always friendly and helpful. This is one of the better Boba spots in North County SD.

    Normally frequent the Sharetea in Riverside but was in the area for Legoland and had to get my boba fix. Location/Parking: Easy to find. Directions through Yelp were accurate. Big parking lot (in plaza with other stores) with spaces right in front of the shop. Price: 3.5 stars. I'm used to Sharetea near my home (2 hours away Lol) with recent promo of student discount Bogo1/2 or Yelp 15%. However, they do give stamp card. Taste: 4 stars. My usual Thai tea was fine. They give a good amount of boba and the boba is not mushy or hard. Just chewy yumminess. I appreciate that they do not give less drink when I ask for no ice. However, they didn't ask sweetness level (I like 100% sweetness anyway but other location asks every time). Make sure to request for less ice or varying sweetness if you like 75% or 50%.

    I was surprised to see a new ShareTea on this side of San Marcos. Not sure when they opened but they're definitely still getting it together... drinks all tasted watered down. I asked for extra boba on a few drinks (we ordered 12) and didn't receive the extra boba. Did an online order ahead of time because I knew 12 drinks would take a while but still had to wait 20min after arrival. Drinks wise this is probably the worst share tea I've been tea and the boba gets all stuck together. The employees are kind and are doing their best.

    Sharetea and another boba tea place are located within steps from each other, and it truly is difficult to choose which one to go to ! I choose the one with less of a line. My favorite drinks to get at Sharetea are the milk tea drinks. I feel that the tea flavor is quality than the other boba tea place across the street. As in most boba places, Sharetea customer service is polite and speedy.

    I've always loved the convenience of this location to grab a quick boba. Their hours are usually…read morepretty available too which makes it ideal! I've had great teas in the past and my last visit was no exception. I recently did ask for a lychee fruit tea with lychee jelly and was asked do you mean like a milk tea, to which I responded yes. Little did I know that made my order a lychee milk tea with lychee jelly. I just assumed I was being asked to be made like a milk tea with just tea, not milk added. When I received my drink, I noticed there was milk just due to coloring and honestly just gave it a try since I was in a rush. It wasn't bad, so I just kept it and continued on with my day. My husband actually loved it, so even better and it worked out. My suggestion is just make sure to clarify your order if you truly care about your specific drink.

    I ordered Thai milk tea and passionfruit lemonade via Uber eats. They made these drinks with ice (I…read moreasked for no ice). The Thai tea looked creamy and had black residuals in it. They took them back and made me new ones which was nice. However it took a long time to get my order because of the mistakes. I also ordered churros. They were ok. The service was great though. The space was a decent size. There's an arcade machine, a claw machine and some tables for hanging out. I would say this is not my boba place of choice but i would go back if there's no other good boba places around.
