Stopped by for boba while visiting this plaza for five below. The cashier was very friendly and was kind to take pictures for my sister and I. Got a brown sugar milk tea and a caramel frapp. Both drinks were good and not too sweet like other boba shops. The inside is cute with a modern stylish.

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

Grapefruit Jasmine Splash tea. Ordered no sugar. Received full sugar ....

I went in with my daughter today to try their teas. My daughter is a fan and connoisseur of pure jasmine green teas (with boba). We came to check it out. My daughter thought their tea was good. It was solid. I ordered the grapefruit jasmine green tea with no sugar or 0% sugar. The possible owner/customer service personnel raved about their teas and said no problem with the 0% sugar request. My daughter's tea was fine. My tea was not made per my request. I thought it was waaay sweet for a 0% sugar request. Then I looked at my label of the order on my tea, half ice, full sugar . Not what I ordered. That was unfortunate because I was already home when I noticed it.

Drinks were ehhhh. I had the Cookies n crème and the matcha brown sugar latte. The cookies n crème was pretty good. I would rate it a 3/5. The matcha brown sugar latte was definitely a NO GO! Just the mix of it was not a good mix. It does not taste ceremonial matcha. Service: We felt extremely rushed.. I also asked about the SIGN that said buy 2 get 1 free. And the OWNER who was at the register has the nerve to ask "Do you REALLLY need it? It's just Thai tea." I mean what kind of service is that... TAKE THE SIGN DOWN if you're going to ask customers if they REALLY need it. And it doesn't even specify what free drink we get. I'm thinking if we buy 2 we get the free one as any drink as well. So false advertisement. No gloves when handing drinks. It was just awful. Ambiance - spacious inside with plenty of seats.

Crooked letters
Veronica T.

Sigh... it's so bad... super UNSANITARY. Really awkward, dare I say, bad service... Let me start by saying there's a sign outside that says buy two get one free... I got nothing free. I saw them used their bare hands to grab the Oreos to crush. They also dropped a cup sticker on the floor, picked it up and stuck it on the cup, then proceeded to stack that cup inside the other cup (the floor sticker touch the inside of another cup). They also leave the milk out on the counter uncapped. Ew I also saw them use their fingers to wipe some of the brown sugar spillage off a cup. Awkward uncomfortable ordering process. Felt rushed. And then after I asked if they used a nondairy milk for the jasmine milk tea (said yes) and about another drink (said they use flavor powder)... he said, " I'm the owner." Uhhh ok??? Going from register to food handling, they didn't wash their hands. I saw them drop a straw when handing to a customer and ignoring it. Idk it seems like there's no system in place right now. I'm just really confused... did anyone get their food handlers license? They were really hyper focused and if a customer said thank you after receiving a drink, it was ignored. There were lots of other minute details. Like mixing spoons on the counter. Touching the spoon head with their hands. Strawberry on the menu missing a y. Crooked lettering on the wall. If you get a free Thai tea just tell them. Just feels really unprofessional overall. Yeah... really don't recommend. Pretty sure most of the five star reviews are fake.

Interior
Noba N.

The staff was passive aggressive and rude. I went on opening week, maybe they were busy and didn't remember the advertisement they posted online. I asked about it and the guy totally gave me attitude and didn't honor their promotion. I paid full price but honestly not worth it. My son had cookies and cream and said it was underwhelming. I had their strawberry matcha and it totally tasted watered down. Offset does a way better job at it. I don't think I will go any more...

Brown sugar milk tea was not overly sweet & the perfect balance. The blended mango fruit tea was so refreshing for a nice sunny day. They had so many options for drinks & even food!

ProMotion buy two get one free Buy two regular drinks and free small Thai milk tea. Inside is beautiful - small but clean & nice Ordered - mango smoothie 4/5 - jasmine milk tea 2/5 - free small Thai milk tea 2/5 I thought the mango smoothie was the best out of the three drinks The worker was super friendly and helpful and quick to service.

Brown Sugar Milk Tea & Original Milk Tea
Yun-Wen L.

We were in the Torrance Promenade Plaza and noticed the new boba shop. We came into the store due to the "Buy 2 Get 1 Free" promotion. Ambiance: 5/5 - The menu is on a mirror surface so it was a bit difficult to read but there were printed menus on the counter. There is a tablet that you can make your order through so very helpful when it gets busy especially since there was only one person running the shop. We ask what the "velvet milk tea" is but it's just naming with no difference from milk teas. The shop itself seems cozy with a few tables to sit at and is very clean. Service: 5/5 - Friendly but blunt. When we asked for a no ice version he stated it's not sustainable. He was happy to provide the drink with no ice but same amount of tea though. Food/Taste/Flavor: 4/5 - they were out of the cream cap jasmine tea so we got a regular Jasmine Tea with no ice, a Brown Sugar Milk Tea with boba, and an Original Milk Tea with boba. The teas were decent but it tasted a bit more syrupy and the boba wasn't the best. Value for price: 2/5 - at Buy 2 Get 1, it was great deal at $14 for 3 drinks. However, once the worker found out we had Yelp, he asked for our number and sent us a message to post as our review. "I've been here a few times already and it never disappoints. Everything tastes fresh, and the place is clean and cozy. You can tell they care about quality. Highly recommend!" The curated message makes us doubt any other 5 star reviews that are vague. He provided us the 2 drinks and asked whether we posted the Yelp review. While we did get the 3rd drink, it felt like it was dependent on a review.

Desire N.

This place is amazing! I tried their tea and it was so refreshing. They have high grade matcha which is packed of flavors. They are giving away a free thai tea if you buy 2 drinks. So take advantage of the offer. I love this spot for their nice furniture.

Happy Re-Grand Opening Presotea Torrance!…read more Today Presotea Torrance celebrated their re-grand opening. They're under new ownership and the owner is a South Bay local who really wants to promote the community. The celebration was a perfect way to celebrate community, good vibes and treats! It also happened to be National Boba Day! I got their Mango Cloud and also tried the Bubble Waffle with strawberries and bubble. I really enjoyed both. The Mango Cloud was refreshing. The topping of boba and lychee jelly were so soft and chewy. Equally as delightful was the bubble waffle. It was sweet and tasty. The good flavor was enhanced with the strawberries and boba. I'm happy I was able to join in today's re-grand opening celebration and hope to be back soon for more tasty boba treats!

Every time that I've been to this location, there seems to always be a small crowd waiting to get their order completed. Today was extremely bad as they were working on a 20 drink online order without addressing those that were in the store waiting for their single drink. I had to wait over 30 minutes for my order which is unacceptable. I don't necessarily blame the workers as they seem to be doing their best. Having just 2 employees working on fulfilling orders may not be the right number or the methodology of fulfilling drink orders may not be the most efficient. I caution those that come into this store that if you see more than 5 people waiting in the store, it may be a minimum 10 minute wait. In my case, it was 34 minutes.

They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, with two swing chairs inside and Edison bulb string lights & blue sails over the tables outside. It was very clean, and the staff were super friendly. You can either order from a screen or directly with the cashier, which I recommend if it's your first time or if you have questions. They have a restroom for customers, and there is also free parking in the connected lot, and I appreciate that convenience. I asked if they have any drinks without syrups/sugar, and they recommended their iced tea. I went with the Four Season Iced Green Tea with no sugar & regular ice, and since it is a boba spot I added the Lychee Coconut Jellies. The jellies went perfectly with the iced green tea, and it was a balanced and refreshing beverage, with hints of rose and a delightful lychee flavor and even a similar lychee texture. I also enjoyed the quality of their plastic cups and selection of large colorful straws - you get to select your favorite color. They let us eat our sushi from Yanagi Kitchen in the plaza along with our boba drinks, and it was a perfect combo. I will definitely be back!

My daughter's mango drink was good and had chunks of fruit floating in it. Hers didn't get as much boba as we would have thought. But still tasty. We'll be back to try other things!

It definitely caught our attention, and the menu had a lot of refreshing options. The lobby looks empty but they have a large seating area that was full so don't be fooled by my photo.

The peach fruit tea wasn't quite my thing. It came with A LOT of fruit bits (I'm pretty sure they were pears), which might be great if you enjoy that texture, but for me it made it hard to actually enjoy the drink. It was really lacking on the peach flavor but having to work around all the fruit took away from it. Overall, a decent stop if you're in the area and like fruit-forward drinks with real fruit pieces...just something to keep in mind depending on your preference.
