Outside
Aileen H.

This location is right at the Promenade! I got the matcha red bean tea 50% sweet and it was perfect ! There isn't a lot of seating inside. There are 4 stools inside. This is more of a grab and go place. Service was fine. You can order from the kiosk or order with the cashier. I was happy there was a share tea there for my Asian drinks craving !

(5) Coffee Milk Tea
Magda G.

Very close to Santa Monica Pier. We walked there after walking through the pier. It's a small walk up spot on Broadway. You place an order at the kiosk, very easy. They call your name as soon as it's ready. Not much of interaction. I had the milk tea with 50% sugar and it was perfect. I'd stop by again when in the area.

I was so excited to find out that there is a Sharetea near Santa Monica Pier. It is literally a couple blocks from the pier. My eldest daughter and I were at the pier for a CHLA Walk & Play LA fundraising event back in May 2024. I made sure we got some boba drink after the event so here we are... It took us less than 10 mins to walk from the pier to Sharetea. It's a small shop compared to other Sharetea locations. Staff was friendly and greeted us upon entry. I knew exactly what I wanted which was the QQ Happy Family Milk Tea with all the toppings that come with it plus 100% sweetness and no ice. My daughter got the Peach Green Tea with aiyu jelly plus 100% sweetness and no ice. We were the only customers in the shop at the time so it didn't take them too long to make our drinks. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed with my QQ Happy Family. I was not very happy LOL. It was not sweet at all. It was the worst QQ Happy Family that I have ever drank and I've drank quite a number of them. I still drank it though... I didn't want it to go to waste. It was just an unsweetened QQ. I don't know what happened, but it was not a tasty boba drink. As for my daughter's drink, it was fine. Hence, overall 3 stars.

Blended Taro with tapioca, no pudding
Robert R.

Ordered two tarro blended boba teas with tapioca, it was soooo good. Kind of sketchy homeless population lingering out front but they caused no problems. I was in and out quick. Parking options are slim. Highly recommend.

(5) Coffee Milk Tea
Jodi F.

Tasty coffee milk tea with boba added. I enjoyed this a lot. Only one person was working so there was a bit of a wait. But it was yummy and worth it. Got this instead of a morning coffee and while not cheap, it wasn't much more than a specialty coffee in many places.

Vegan options sign and milk options
Ashley H.

Boba by the beach? Yes please! Came here on a Saturday afternoon and didn't have to wait too long to get our drinks. You can conveniently order at kiosks and they display an approximate wait time on a TV screen so you can easily see how many orders are ahead of yours and when your order is ready. Also for my fellow vegans, you don't need to worry about asking what toppings or drinks are vegan friendly because they have a sign that conveniently tells you!

(27) Mango & Passion Fruit Tea
Erin K.

Tons of great options at Sharetea -- fruit teas, milk teas, blended options, and non-caffeinated drinks! The best part about this location is there is the option to order on an iPad outside. You are offered all the same options - choosing amount of ice, sweetness, and add-ins, but you can skip the line! After I ordered, it said my order would be ready in 10-15 minutes, but it was ready in 5! I ordered the (27) Mango & Passion Fruit Tea and it was perfectly refreshing for a day at the beach. I want to go back and try some of the other flavors.

My friend and I were walking around downtown Santa Monica and stumbled upon this boba place! They had an impressive menu and add on options but I opted for a sweeter, chocolatey boba. (they also have coffee options if that's your jam!) I really loved the taste of my drink! The foam was bit too sweet for my liking but it was good. They also give you a pretty large portion for the prices too which is always great. They didn't have any seating options inside but we were walking along anyways so it was okay. There isn't really any street parking in this area as it's super touristy and near the pier, so this place was more of a place you'd go out of convenience of being in the area rather than going here specifically. That being said, if I'm ever in this area again I'll be back! I want to try more flavors.

A little seaside boba shop. Super close to the pier. I went here with my friends after a long day at the beach. Kiosks were displayed both inside and outside the restaurant which speeds up the ordering process. I got the mango green tea and mango+passion fruit green tea both of which were good! Some things to note: - paper straws only (I hate how it turns soggy) - no distinct ordering/waiting area

Honey black tea with pearl boba
Lisa W.

While I enjoyed my honey black tea here, the boba was undercooked, so it wasn't great. I still gave 4 stars because the staff were super nice and helpful, and service was quick. I loved having the option to customize sweetness level and ice - I don't know why all tea shops don't do this. I'll be back when I'm in the area again.

Winter melon fresh milk
Jill L.

Yay finally a legit boba shop in Santa Monica! At a great location to introduce bubble tea to the tourists too LOL. It's a small to go space and the workers are nice and friendly. I'm so glad they marked the caffeine-free drinks on the menu, because I stopped by after dinner (at Kazunori across the street) and I can't have caffeinated drinks too late. They have one size here (large) and the standard options for sweetness (100%, 80%, 50%, 30% and 0%) and ice amount. I got the winter melon milk tea ($5.75) with boba (+ $0.75), less sweet (80%) and less ice. It was delicious! Perfect amount of sweetness for me (I think people who are sensitive to sweet could go down to 50% or less, since I like my boba on the sweet side). They do use paper straws here, yay for the environment! I had trouble poking in my straw though, but funny enough they anticipated that and have little disposable poking tools to help. Great place to stop at before a day of shopping at Third Street, walking the pier or the Farmer's Market!

Milk tea and peach green tea
Kim l.

Conveniently located sharetea. Walking distance from the pier and the promenade. We grabbed a milk tea and a peach green tea. It took a good 15-20 minutes to get our drinks once we ordered. The drinks were good.

Mango and (27) Mango & Passion Fruit Tea
Brandon S.

This place is conveniently located near the santa monica pier. I am a regular at other locations so I figured this would be a decent place too. My mango and passionfruit tea with no toppings came out to over $7, which is a lot more expensive than other locations. Worst part is they gave flimsy paper straws with it. The drink tastes roughly the same so that was a good thing at least.

Loved the lychee slush and would love to come back and try the crème brûlée drink. It looked amazing.

Best boba shop in LA hands down! Texture of boba is divine and flavor options are very easy to navigate and product is always consistent.

I'm writing this review based on how a simple situation was handled by management…read more We ordered one protein açaí bowl and one regular açaí bowl. The protein bowl was extremely sweet, and the vanilla protein powder flavor was very overpowering. I understand that this may simply be how the item is prepared, so I'm not criticizing the quality or recipe. However, it wasn't to my taste and I couldn't eat it after just one spoonful. I asked the very nice employees if it would be possible to receive store credit instead. She was very kind and said she would need to check with the manager. When the manager came over, he initially seemed dismissive and asked what I meant by "too sweet." I calmly explained that it just wasn't to my personal taste and it is very sweet, and I can't touch it. I didn't want a replacement or money back , only store credit. He said OK and left... Shortly after, another staff member approached with a 25% discount coupon for a future visit left it on the table and left. I felt this response was not appropriate, especially since I already discussed this with the Manager. After some discussion between the two owners/managers, they eventually agreed to provide the store credit. In my opinion, this was a straightforward situation that could have been handled more smoothly. As a customer, I made a reasonable request and was not looking for anything beyond a fair resolution. From a management perspective, I believe it's important to listen to customer feedback and resolve concerns without unnecessary friction.

In an industry where restaurants are struggling to stay open and the mastery of Gourmet Cuisine and or even simplicity of properly prepared foods, restaurants are shutting down left and right in Los Angeles and here poorly prepared, unprofessional and non-hospitable staff keeps their doors open. I am so disappointed It doesn't matter what city you're in or how high end you want to be, to not have respect for the food and have no respect for the customers is completely absurd and preposterous. Not to mention that there's $60 for Day old gallons of coffee "cold brew" I was completely robbed today Let it be known ...STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE!
