    Review #1003 2026-073 Drinks Order: Signature Fruit Tea with Crystal Boba $7.75 Strawberry Matcha with Crystal Boba $7.75 My son & I were at Torrance Promenade doing some last minute shopping for the holidays, & was thirsty (forgetting his water bottle again). We were leaving Five Below when my son spotted Sky Boba Cafe, thinking we can get drinks there. Lucky boy... SBC is a boba shop & they also serve snacks. I rarely browse the businesses on the other side of the island since my kids have outgrown Carter's. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The shop is especially bright due to the expansive windows, & the lobby/dining area is spacious with plenty of tables & chairs to hang out & enjoy your sips.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You have the option of ordering at the counter or using the kiosk off to the right. Their menu lacks descriptions so I needed some clarification (i.e. jasmine splash since you can combine 2 flavors, creamy slush vs. fruit tea slush). I ended picking 1 of their top 10 drinks: Strawberry Matcha & M chose the Signature Fruit Tea. There was a couple ahead of us so our drinks came pretty fast. The Strawberry Matcha was vibrant & beautifully layered. It tasted pretty good, though the matcha could have been blended better. It was a l'il grainy & I didn't care for the taste of the milk though. I believe they used whole milk? I might be biased with drinking Stonyfield Organic & A2 milks. M liked Signature Fruit Tea, but didn't make any other comments; I'm guessing he'll come back if we're conveniently at the Torrance Promenade. Sky Boba Cafe was originally located in Bellflower before moving to Torrance in Summer 2025. The boba in the South Bay has a lot of heavy hitters so the field is tough, & they're on the pricier side for the amount of drink. They'll like get a decent amount of foot traffic from patrons at neighboring Five Below & Trader Joe's. I recently spotted them on the TooGoodToGo app, but they keep selling out so I'm not sure if it's a worthwhile deal. I'll be back if I'm shopping in the area, or enticed by their "leftovers" on the TGTG app. ;-)

    Cookies and Cream
    Celina C.

    I really loved the cookies and cream! The cream tasted almost identical to the inside of an Oreo so good! Thai tea was just o k. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside has space for light studying.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Plenty of parking space as it is inside a big plaza. Service was quick and the staff was friendly

    Outside

    Ordered a matcha, nothing fancy but delicious either way. I was greeted immediately when I entered and my drink was started as soon as I order. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside was nice and clean, with comfortable seating available.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    The score isn't supposed to be at the BOTTOM of the window!

    I was going to try this place out, but when I came to the door, I happened to see this sign from the health department giving it a C grade. The C is awful enough, as it means pretty major violations. However, the biggest issue I have is that it looks like the owner strategically MOVED the score to the bottom of the door! Very shady, I will not order a drink from this place.

    Coconut green tea and Thai tea

    Great service and great drinks at a good value! Highly recommend this place if you're in the area!

    I am rounding up from 3.5 stars. We came here a few months ago for boba. My LO in her cookies and cream phase wanted the cookies and cream boba. Service was friendly and fast since we were the only customers in the store. Interestingly, after the first taste, both my LO and I didn't feel like it tasted like cookies and cream but now months later my LO said she wants to go back because she liked it. Haha.

    Thai Tea w/ boba

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was super clean[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and Jack was really nice!! I would definitely come back to get some more Thai tea!

    Trying here for the first time. Got less sweet milk tea. Tastes great!
    Gina L.

    Came here for the first time. Got less sweet jasmine milk tea. Tastes great! Jasmin flavor is strong. Personally I think it's better than molly tea. Will come again.

    Top ten!

    Stopped by photo world and since it's adjacent took my daughter for a treat (reward for test). ~5pm: Employee was VERY eager to help and sell us drinks! Showed us the top ten drinks so we tried 1) Taro Frappe (1/2 sugar) & 2) Cookies & Cream. I really enjoyed the consistency and taste of taro frappe!! It tasted as though he used real taro!!! I also appreciated the paper cover as opposed to plastic. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a nice sit down - with tables and cushions.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would like to return for a date or hangout - Buy 3 get 1 FREE deal!

    Stopped by Sky Boba after browsing the nearby shops and wanted a quick, easy drink break. Vibe / Interior Hard to pinpoint the exact aesthetic--they seem to be going for function over form. Plenty of seating, which is nice if you're stopping in with a group. Order / Standouts I ordered a Thai Tea, which I later found out was sold out after ordering. I was quickly pushed to choose something else and ended up with a Matcha Strawberry instead. My friend ordered a Passionfruit drink. Both were fine, but nothing memorable or standout for a boba shop. Service Unfortunately, this was the low point. The experience felt uncomfortable and pushy. Two friends in our group were pressured to order drinks when they clearly didn't want anything. I also wish the staff had communicated upfront that Thai tea was unavailable instead of rushing me into a replacement order. Good For A convenient, no-frills stop if you just want a quick drink and don't plan to linger. Price / Value The prices were not available on the board so it was tough to gauge up front how much each one would cost or which ones are more premium. We paid about $13 for two drinks. Pricing is standard for boba, so the value itself is reasonable. Parking There's a lot directly in front, but it fills up fast. Expect to wait a few minutes for a spot during busy times. Pro Tips They mentioned a deal where ordering two drinks gets one free--but it appears to be limited to Thai tea or milk tea, so ask for details before ordering.

    Sky Boba Cafe is one of the most adorable, clean, and peaceful tea and boba shops !! Their service is impeccably attentive, sweet, efficient, and there are plenty of seating areas and tables to relax and relieve yourself from the California heat. The manager works really fast too! What we ordered: Pistachio velvet milk tea with oat milk and salty cream: we really enjoyed how perfectly sugary and creamy this was! The addition of salty cream is highly recommended to balance the somewhat nutty and decadent flavor, plus the oat milk pronounces the sweetness by a touch (8.5/10) Strawberry matcha with oat milk: this is one of their most popular drinks; the matcha tasted very strong and high-quality, but the strawberry jam at the bottom is SUPER sweet in contrast--make sure to mix it all, but trust, once you do, it's heaven in a cup! You truly cannot go wrong with strawberry matcha and this one will not let you down (9/10) Make sure to stop by Sky Boba Cafe if you're in Torrance--it's perfect for a hot day, especially if you'll spend a lot of time walking around, staying active, or working--they also have a lot of promos like for their Thai tea and options to customize your drink in any way you wish!

    Brown Sugar Milk Tea & Strawberry Matcha
    Reeva P.

    This new cafe has a wide variety of drinks and plenty of seating to enjoy your treats! The owner was very kind and helpful when I asked for recommendations. He made both of my drinks himself, and asked asked if they were to my liking after I tasted them. I love that the strawberry matcha uses real strawberries, and is just the right amount of sweetness. The matcha itself was a little grainy, but nonetheless made well. You also get a great portion of each drink for the price! I would highly recommend Sky Boba Cafe to anyone in the area and have high hopes for its success.

    Sky Boba Cafe has been such a great addition to the Torrance Promenade since they first opened. It's always nice having a dedicated drink spot in the area, and they've really built an impressive menu with something for every mood. They offer a wide variety of drink categories -- classic velvet milk teas, pure and real fruit teas, jasmine fruit-infused teas, creamy slushes, matcha and taro creations, coffee-based drinks, and even cream-cap teas. Whether you want something refreshing and fruity or rich and creamy, there's always a fun option to try. The staff is friendly! Service is quick, and their store hours make it a convenient stop during shopping trips at Trader Joe's, Home Goods, or any of the shops at the promenade! They also seem to have light bites I'll have to check out next time! If you're at Torrance Promenade and feeling thirsty, Sky Boba Cafe is definitely worth a visit

    COME HERE IF YOU LOVE SPECIALTY COFFEE…read more DO NOT COME HERE IF YOU LOOK FOR: PRETTY LOOKING/LAYERED SUGAR BOMB DRINKS (nothing wrong with that though! Just wanting to help with expectations if you've never been here.) This place serves purely traditional coffee. I'm new to living in this area in LA (I come from Orange County) and have been trying to visit the coffee shops out here. So far, this is THE BEST from what I've tried so far in terms of specialty coffee. (I don't have a long list that I've visited yet) It's quite refreshing actually, to see a coffee shop that's PURELY specialty coffee. No frills or thrills, just traditional basics done well. Decor is great. I tried the emerald series espresso as a flat white (two of them) which is marketed as rare and exotic. I didn't want to read much too much into it at the moment. I was just wanting my caffeine fix. Both together came out to around $17 (oof!) They at least handed us 2 oz samples of coffee. Presentation of the drinks were done well. You can tell that they really care about the craft because we were waiting unnecessarily long on a slow day. I over heard a 'How did that pull?' while waiting. I appreciate the care.

I tried their tot cream latte & their "feels like home", both iced. If you order for enjoying in shop, they give you a cute cup with a saucer & spoon. They don't put that much ice which I appreciate. The coffee is still cold! The tot cream latte is on the sweeter side, but it is extremely good. I like the flavor of the coffee, although the sweetness kind of takes away from the coffee shining through. It's good for people that like coffee but not the acidic taste from it. The feels like home is strong. That bean? Phew. Got muscles, it's strong. Very subtle sweetness. Beautiful bean flavor. Cream top is yummy. I would def order again. I appreciate them not having burnt or acidic/sour tasting espresso. That's been a common trend in coffee shops as of late D: Ambiance is nice, it's small inside & no AC so they have a fan with the door cracked open wide but still gets stuffy inside. I believe they do have WiFi don't quote me, you'll have to fact check that one. But there were people there on their laptops so I wanna assume yes.. Service was quick and standard amongst the baristas. Parking in the plaza is small otherwise there is an underground garage. There was a notice of filming or photography sign I didn't bother reading and forgot to take a picture of but it's on the glass when you go up to order.
