    "R&B Tea was such a fun spot for a casual foodie run The ambience was lively, clean, and perfect for catching up with friends over drinks and snacks. I ordered the strawberry matcha latte along with the popcorn chicken + fries combo, and everything came out fresh and flavorful. The matcha was creamy with the perfect hint of strawberry sweetness, while the chicken stayed super crispy and seasoned so well. Service was quick, friendly, and patient while we ordered, which made the experience even better. Definitely a spot I'd come back to when I'm craving boba and comfort food #YelpElite #SGVEats"

    Visited: 11/25/25 Mango Matcha Latte + Cheese Cream + Boba: 8/10 The flavor was delicious overall, and I'd definitely come back for more boba. That said, the matcha flavor in the mango matcha latte was nonexistent as the mango completely overpowered it, and the drink was a bit sweeter than I expected, so I couldn't sip it as quickly as I normally do. The boba itself had a nice chewy texture and paired well with the drink. I think next time I'd ask for less sweetness and a stronger matcha flavor. The interior of the store was absolutely stunning. Right by the entrance is a tree covered in little hanging notes from previous visitors, which gives the space a whimsical, thoughtful vibe. There are plants all around (from the ceiling to the walls and even incorporated into the tree). Soft, warm lights are beautifully strung throughout the store, adding to the magical, cozy feeling. Honestly, it's probably the most visually beautiful boba shop I've ever been to, and it makes for great photos if you're into aesthetics. The space was also very calm when I visited. There weren't many people, so it didn't feel crowded or distracting. It was a very comfortable and relaxing environment, perfect for taking your time, enjoying your drink, and soaking in the surroundings. Price Breakdown: -Mango Matcha Latte = $5.95 -Cheese Cream = $0.85 -Boba = $0.85

    Stopped by because I was craving some popcorn chicken! Ended up getting more menu items. The interior is super cool looking, it has a nice aesthetic to it. Would recommend if you are nearby or in the area. Parking can be a little tricky during busier times, they have curb street parking in front of the restaurant. Popcorn Chicken - 8/10, super yummy and crispy but I really wished they took the time to fry the basil leaves. Fried Calamari - 9/10, pretty decent and the sauce provided paired well with this item Pad See Ew - 8/10, I've had more flavorful pad see ew but this was still good and I would highly recommend Chicken Fried Rice - 6/10, probably my least favorite item. It was a little bland for my tasting

    Phoebe is very attentive and such a great worker! She really gets all the details down and was very fun to talk to! The owners are lucky to have such a great worker i would definitely give her a raise! Zoey was awesome also they work great together! This place has awesome very delicious selections and is my favorite tasting boba place in Orange

    Its nice to see another boba place in orange. This location is big and clean and I was able to study for a bit here. It took me forever to decide what to get. Wasn't sure if I wanted milk tea or coffee. I eventually settled on milk tea because they can't screw that up. Although my drink looks good, it was just normal tasting. It tasted like typical milk tea and nothing crazy special. Im willing to stop by again to try other items, but I am not dying to do so.

    Brown Sugar Boba Milk with Egg Pudding (instead of Boba) was all milk

    I had high hopes for this place since it had really good reviews here, but was thoroughly disappointed. I ordered the Brown Sugar Boba Milk with Egg Pudding (instead of Boba) and got the Milk Milk Milk Milk with Egg Pudding. My hopeful self thought maybe it was still sweet but when I tasted it, all I tasted was milk and egg pudding. It was pretty sad. I wasn't alone. I came with a group and many of us got the same disappointment. Some of us also got Crystal Boba substituted without notifying us because they ran out of regular Boba. Who makes substitutions without asking? Also, I ordered their plain fries and it was below mediocre. I asked for the Cajun seasoning on the side and that didn't help the flavor or the texture at all. On top of that, they were pretty stingy with the amount of ketchup they provide even when I went back to ask for more. Additionally, the girl at cash register seemed lost and flustered. It didn't help with any of the other things going on and it didn't make asking for assistance or remaking the drinks any more comfortable. There was a guy in the back that saw me when I went up to ask for more ketchup and did not acknowledge me other than the awkward eye contact. Their customer service needs some work. The only reasons they are getting three stars are 1) because it was nicely decorated and clean in there, 2) because they were open late on a Sunday night, and 3) because they did fix the drink of someone else in my party. But with a group that ordered something in excess of 8 drinks, it is awkward for a customer to ask them to remake all those drinks. They should make it right the first time.

    On a hot day, a much-needed cold tea is perfect to keep you hydrated! I stopped by R&B Tea to check it out since my sister told me it's a new tea place around Old Town Orange. Upon our arrival, we were not greeted. The employee kept looking down, and I was the one who said, "Hi, good afternoon." She looked up but didn't respond with a "Hi," "Good morning," "Can I get your order," or "Welcome." Maybe she was having a rough morning. I hope tomorrow is a better day for her. Anywho, the ambiance was lovely. It wasn't crowded, and they had music playing. My sister and I enjoyed our cold drinks. We thought they were good. Our drinks had flavor and they didn't taste too sweet. Next time, we'll probably try some of the food items.

    I love this place! The food and drinks are top-notch and the space is much bigger - and cuter than it appears outside. I used to pass by all the time and didn't think much of the shop, until someone recommended I stop in and I took that advice. When I went in, I was greeted with this gorgeous wish tree filled with hearts. I even got to sit in the table underneath in one time, which was really magical. I've gotten the garlic noodles, which were incredible, and the Jasmine Green Tea with house cream, one of the popular drinks is popular with good reason -- it's so good! I've gone back since then and gotten a coffee and it's also really good.

    Cajun French Fries

    The drinks were really yummy! And surprisingly the food was too, I never get food from boba shops but it was so yummy I got the shrimp rolls, Cajun fries, and fried tofu. The ambience was 4/5. It was peaceful and the little heart tree was a nice touch! The staff are nice, no problems there. I'll be going again in the future, thanks!

    Garlic Noodle
    Fern A.

    Garlic noodles are thee best I've had yet. Definitely a must. It's our first time here and I DO recommend. Popcorn chicken is okay.. needs to be coated more and spicy isn't really spicy. If it weren't for the popcorn chicken not being spicy at all and how it was seasoned this all could've gotten a 5 stars. as for the fries eat them there. Dont wait to take him cause as you know fries get soggy with the moisture. I ordered the cajun it was really good.

    Salted coffee and Strawberry Matcha Latte

    My favorite spot in the circle, drinks are great, portions are huge, prices are lower than most other places in the circle. They make your drink fast and they have a huge menu. Great place to study in and order a few coffees

    I am a boba fanatic, so I think I can say with confidence that this place is pretty good. They offer a wide variety of options and along with their boba, they have great mango sticky rice and spring rolls. The only things I want to point out is: - The price: It's not the cheapest, there are definitely more affordable options out there. But in terms of price, I would still come back. Each drink can range from $6 to $7. - The service: They take a while to bring out your drinks, and this might be because there's usually only one person working behind the counter, which kind of slows everything down. But besides that, I am always given some pretty good drinks. Another plus is that the place looks very beautiful ! Would come again and would recommend to others !

    Hawaiian fruit tea

    10/10 drinks and food! Everything was delicious and came out super fast. We got the tom kha, garlic fries, popcorn chicken, quail, shaken beef with garlic noodles, and an assortment of drinks. I personally got the hawaiian fruit tea and my friends got the lychee yakult and brown rice milk tea. Great drinks and great service! Also the love tree inside is super cute for photos!

There's plenty of seating inside and they have a good music playlist for ambiance. Service is very friendly and welcoming too. I got the Mango No. 5 which was a matcha latte with mango puree and sweetened oat milk with a coconut foam and it was surprisingly so good!! I've never seen these flavor combinations for a matcha but they work. The drink was not overly sweet and it still tasted like matcha. Highly recommend this spot for a quirky, laid back coffee shop with delicious drinks.

Street parking and the nearby used to fill up quickly, but now that the area charges for parking, it's even more of a commitment when I'm already picking up a $6.50 coffee. I honestly wish they had a 10 minute pickup spot in front of the shop to make things a little easier. The shop is bright, cute, and very aesthetic, with a great collection of records lining the back. Finding a table can be tricky, especially when Chapman is in session since the seating fills up quickly. I also like that they have their coffee ready on tap and add specific customizations depending on what you order. I always get the Lovebirds, which only comes in large. It's a coffee oolong milk tea, which is a pretty unique combination. I like how it's strong, more coffee-forward, and less sweet than what you'd typically get at a boba shop. I do like coming here, but I have to have a good reason to spend time in the Circle when I know I'll be paying for parking. Otherwise, it can be a little hard to justify for just a coffee run.

I am writing this review because a few of my friends and I have frequented this coffee shop for a few years now, but we wont be back for a while. Months ago, one of my friends had made a visit and overheard an elderly woman making a negative comment about a Pride flag displayed by the register. Obviously other customers comments cant be or shouldn't be controlled by the company, but we were extremely disappointed to find out that since that comment was made, the Pride flag has been taken down. I had ran in to grab a drip before work one morning and noticed that some of the baristas also no longer had their Pride flag pins on. This clearly has details I am unaware of but it seems obvious that corporate had those images removed. This makes me and my friends feel very uncomfortable with how this situation was treated. I wouldn't recommend any of my friends to support this kind of activity. One very simple solution for you: Bring back the flag and you'll bring back our buisness! If you're worried about more complaints from individuals like the elderly woman, maybe fly an American flag as well I simply want people to feel safe and accepted.
