So cool to have this great tea spot close to campus!…read more This is a spacious, stylish, modern, and comfortable space to relax and enjoy your milk tea. Very convenient to order on one of the two self service kiosks, though a line can form at times (wish they had at least one more). There's a useful screen showing all of the orders that are ready and being worked on. There's a good amount of seating well spread out with some tables and a large communal table. Some power outlets near the wall for charging. There's a cool tea tasting and education area where they let you taste and learn about tea. They have some of the best tea of any chain, you can really taste the tea flavor. Their boba also comes warm and fresh in your cup. And how fun is their built in cup holder rope!

If you like tea this is the place to go to because they do a tea demonstration in Georgia did an…read moreamazing job with describing the taste how they smell and taste and how to make it as well. . It was very informative and takes about 15 minutes which I really love and I really enjoy and learned a lot about tea. . Also I love coming here and getting the green milk tea with Boba and it has your Taro Boba and taro paste too. You can have it less sweet or no sweet and you can have it with less ice or more ice it's all up to your choice. . This is near the university and parking is a little challenge but there's also street parking and parking garage too. Hope this review helps and thanks for reading and have a yelp-tastic day.

Yokee is one of my favorite boba shops in Oakland. My top 2 fav drinks are Grapefruit Green Tea and…read morethe Puff Cream Milk Tea. The Grapefruit Green Tea is very refreshing. Perfect for hot days. Lately, I've been getting the Puff Cream Milk Tea with boba and 50% sugar. It's creamy with an aromatic tea flavor and perfect sweetness. I love the chewiness of the boba. I love the quality of their current cups! It's simple and cute. I see a lot of people ordering the mango flavored drinks. Those look delicious and refreshing. Will try those next time! 10/10!

Not the best boba place but definitely a great value if you want to order breakfast and tea. My…read moreorders are always ready very quickly and everything is fried to order and very fresh.

But to wait that long for 2 of my food items to be cold is ridiculous. I ordered fried calamari rings, 2 unagi musubi & mozzarella sticks. The only item that was hot was the musubi. The other 2 were cold. I'll just stick to the drinks from now on.

First time there. Excellent service since I didn't know what I wanted same as the BF. Server was…read morevery patient and explained what they had since the menu was basically new to us.

I don't recommend the Mango Sago here because it lacks mango and the taste is not appealing. The…read morefirst taste was of artificial flavors that got better as I mixed it. I didn't see any mango pieces, just some kind of a puree in the bottom. I was surprised at how small this drink was compared to my wife's drink. The Mango Sago at I-Tea tastes so much better and has pieces of mango that you can enjoy. My wife had the Matcha Strawberry which was much better than my drink and is the only reason that I gave a 3 star rating instead of two.

I hear they are under new management and no long affiliated with the one off of Clayton Rd in…read moreConcord. But that one is never open anyways. I assume it's true because their cup sizing has changed which I'm sadly disappointed. It's more open space/spacious and I had to create a new rewards account. Drink menu names changed slightly on kiosk and on the wall. They don't have that tacky shelf with plush, stuff, Knick knacks, for sale anymore. Drink still good, I don't think recipe has changed. I heard, then seen it for myself, the instagram post and stories shared by friends, of people dancing and partying at the shop late nights after hours. Then when I went in, also still had the sign up that said they did dance concert or hosted DJ nights at the shop. But Im also assuming it was under the old management and they must've got caught something doing something illegal or something they weren't suppose to be doing. The minus one star is for the cup sizing. Bring it back! Main reason why I love coming here, a good price for big cup size. Now it's like every other boba shop. Which is fine, but I won't go out of my way to come get boba here like I used to.

Milk Tea Lab is now under new ownership at this location, and having been visiting this spot quite…read moreoften throughout that time I've become more than familiar with the quality and expectations of this place. This was my first time visiting them again since the ownership change so it's been a minute. What I see here now is just depressing, not just because the place was empty, but it's now devoid of anything that felt like a spot someone would want to hangout at. No music, when I got in there was one person waiting for their food and nobody was even at the front counter for minutes before somebody finally came out from the back. Ordering is just through the kiosk now, which isn't a bad thing. The part that was really rough was the reason why I even came here; the boba. I got a regular milk tea which now they only have a single size. I miss the extra large size they used to have, but oh well. The next issue comes with how much the boba actually costs. They may have gotten rid of the extra large cup sizes, but they're still charging the almost the same amount for it in a much smaller cup. What a deal, right? And we get to the actual drink. When the person making the drink after receiving your order finishes within a minute of making it, it's never a good sign. Why is that? Well, they had premade jug of milk tea ready to pour out for your tasting pleasure. When you have a premade jug of milk tea, it's never a good sign. While I've had them at other places that have done this before, and it's ranged from bad to mediocre, the one here at Milk Tea Lab, now, was in a word, rancid. It was incredibly gross with absolutely no redeeming qualities to it. I generally try not to be so harsh, but this was really not it and I couldn't even finish the boba because of how bad the milk tea was. It's sad to see how big of a dropoff this spot has become compared to what it used to be. This isn't like when they first opened where there were only 2-3 boba spots right next to them. Now there's at least a handful of options within a few minutes away, and dozens of spots within a mile or two, and this is what they're pushing out? It's a shame but this Milk Tea Lab which was their starter store is no longer a place I would ever go back to for boba. It's time is now past with this new ownership.

I like that the store is always clean and plays upbeat music. Great place or stop by to pick up a drink after a long day of work. Service was excellent. I especially like the Taro Drink, the Creme Brûlée Boba and the Mango Sago. Have yet drank a drink I do not like yet. Parking is easy right outside. Will come again.

I'm seriously considering making Boba Bliss my new boba place of choice after I've been loyal to…read moreShareTea and it's QQ Happy Family for years. Boba Bliss has a great selection, prices are still reasonable, and the boba are tasty and perfectly chewy every time. They use the sealing lids but their lids feel papery so they're easy to shove the straw in. I don't know if it's always that crowded, but I've noticed lots of people between 3:00-4:30. The wait isn't crazy long though. And those five or six young people working back there are hustling. You order from the kiosk to the right of the register. Would be nice if they had more than one kiosk but the place is small. A few small tables along the walls, nothing you'd really park and hang out at.

It's located in Westlake shopping plaza so there was ample parking, even on a weekend during dinner time. I had ordered online ahead of time as I had a coupon expiring soon. 10% ain't much but ykw it's honest work. I have been meaning to try their guava drinks forever, and finally today I got the guava grape, which can be made with or without jasmine tea. I got it the recommended way, with the tea, as well as less ice and less sugar. The drink was ready when we arrived. The store smells delicious as all Heyteas do. We waited a few minutes for a worker to be freed up, and were on our way, drinks in hand, 5 minutes later. The guava grape drink tasted just as I hoped it would. The guava and jasmine tea gave each sip a delicately earthy, floral flavor, and the crispness of the grape and the chunks of fresh grape brightened up each sip. This drink was just as good the following day as it was fresh, an important metric for me as the slowest drink-finisher I know. I will definitely be back to this Heytea if I am in the area. I saw that they brought back their blue coconut matcha with coconut jelly, which is my favorite matcha drink from them, so I will for sure get that next time!
