This Sunright Tea Studio is located in old town Pasadena, specifically 2 doors down from Cheesecake Factory. Since we were in the area, my husband, our little girl dog and I decided to order our drinks online and then just pick up in store. Although this is our first time visiting this location, we are no stranger to Sunright in general and typically have had positive experiences with their drinks. We ended up ordering: Mango Jasmine Tea, $6.25- I ordered this drink for my husband to be made with no ice and 50% sweetener. This drink was too sweet. It tasted like it was made with 100% sweetness. Matcha Latte w/ Pistachio Cheese Foam, $6.95- I ordered this drink for myself to be made with less ice (as no ice was no ice was not an option) and 25% sweetener. This drink was also very sweet and so I ended up added hot water to it when I got home to dilute the sweetness. --------------------------------- (Total= $13.20, tax included) After ordering, I had received a text message within 8 minutes letting me know that my order was ready. I was rather disappointed with my order and so was my husband. Although the flavor of the tea drinks itself was fine, the level of sweetness was just too sweet for us. I am not sure if the employee had just given us 100% sweetness or not, but this isn't typical of our experience at other locations, including Arcadia and San Gabriel. I hope this was just a one time error and that it doesn't happen again. Please note that the employee who gave us our order was friendly and she also seemed very happy when she saw our dog with us (as most people usually seem to be in spirits when they see her). read more

Never been to this place before, but my partner had a hankering for boba. My partner found this spot on DoorDash and thought we would try it out. We ordered for pickup for 1 Thai Tea with boba. My partner loved it; the amount of boba they put in was a great ratio to Thai Tea. It wasn't overly sweet like some other spots we have tried. I tried 2 different drinks because I don't like ordering the same thing every time. I tried the strawberry slushie. I enjoyed it very much the strawberry flavoring didn't taste like chemicals like some places make it. It was perfect for a hot summer day. The next drink I tried was the mango jasmine tea which I thought was delicious. It had the perfect mango flavoring that wasn't overly powerful as you can still taste the jasmine and tea. Only gripe I have is the location. They are in prime time real estate on Colorado. Which makes parking more difficult as you can't pop in and pop out with to go orders. The employees were extremely friendly and apologetic about how difficult it was to find it when you try to park. There are 2 different parking garages to park in that area and walk to them to save yourself the hassle. read more

There's limited street parking or there's structure parking nearby. There's a QR code for online ordering or they have two kiosk inside. Seems like that's the only way to order which is fine by me. I only interacted with staff when they called the name of the order. It's definitely a place to grab a milk tea and go. There's a waiting bench against the wall but otherwise you're not going to be hangout here. I got the matcha oolong milk tea. It's pretty good since you can actually taste the tea. It wasn't too sweet considering I got it at 100%. It's worth a chance to try. read more

I got the regular milk tea with boba 50% sweet, and this hit the spot! I liked how the milk and sugar wasn't overpowering the tea flavor, and the boba was the perfect chewy texture. They only have one size for their drinks, which was equivalent to a large at most other boba shops I've been. Parking in the area is a little challenging, as it's mainly street parking. We were lucky enough to get a stall right in front of the store. We placed an online order and hopped out of the car to pick it up. read more

The tea here is pretty good! Even with milk and boba, I could still taste the tea flavor. There are ordering kiosks inside the shop. Staff tend to stay busy making drinks and I didn't actually interact with anyone working there. There is a bench seat against the wall, but no real seating area to speak of. Plan to take your drink to go. read more

Sunright after dinner always HITS! No matter what location I go to, I can also trust that my drink will taste the same. The self-order kiosks make it very convenient to order. The drinks came out in less than 10 minutes. Mango Milk Tea w/ Agar Boba, 5/5: After the topping, the total came down to $6.75. 50% sweetness was perfect and the mango flavor was so delicious. No other boba place has a drink like this, so I'm always coming back here! read more

This place is almost never busy. You can go right in and out. The inside is very spacious, there are benches inside but not really great for hanging around. The service is usually pretty quick and the drinks are always made well. My family and I like to stop by here after having lunch in Pasadena! 10/10 would recommend this location read more

Been here a few times whenever I'm in the Pasadena area and this place never disappoints. I've had multiple things and their options are so good, the boba bouncy not hard, and you can adjust sweetness as needed. You order on a screen so you really don't have much interaction with staff. Not a place to sit and hang around but doesn't bother me as it's right in the middle of Colorado street so taking it to walk around is very enjoyable read more

Fast service with self-ordering kiosks. I tried the white peach oolong milk tea and it was surprisingly good! I liked the bright sweetness from the distinctive peach flavor, and I also love their brown sugar boba - good texture and flavor. read more

Right in old town, decently clean space with self-order tablets, good variety of teas, appreciate the personalization. Service was basically non-existent but I guess got the job done since we didn't run into any issues. Not a place to chill at all since no tables - just a bench to wait - and vibe is cold, no swag to purchase. read more

Sunright has so many locations now that it feels redundant reviewing them. However, their teas and bobas are always solid if you need a beverage. Service is usually quick but I would recommend pre-ordering online to avoid any lines. read more

I normally get a matcha whenever I get boba, but this place had a popular Oreo Brûlée so I tried it. It's very good. Service is quick, and you order at a kiosk. read more

Sunright is extremely addicting. We used to frequent the one in MP but since we moved here, this one is just much closer. We usually do mobile ordering for pickup. I love the ease of use of the apps and their service is always timely. The drinks are great and they have options for everything you can think of! There's a long bench inside but no tables. It's a dainty store located in Old Town Pasadena. Street parking is hard to find when it's busy but not impossible. There are lots of parking lots everywhere but may cost you a few bucks. Try their brown sugar milk! Add cream top and white pudding. read more

I've been able to enjoy coming here a few times when visiting Old Town Pasadena. It's funny how it integrates so well at times you can easily slip by. But similar to a wizard's tent in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, the insides are much bigger than the exterior showcases. Inside, the height of the ceilings give an openness to the space. Indeed, no tables or chairs are inside. Instead, a long bench runs from one end of the wall to the counter. Across it are the touchscreens utilized for ordering your drinks. As the menu isn't massive in selections it means you can enjoy the pretty pictures and possible fruity drinks associated with them. In fact, the whole color scheme of this place falls in line with the sun: yellows and oranges. The drinks also run the gamut of sweetness. When ordering a drink it gives you the option of how sweet you want it to be. If you like very sweet drinks keep it at 100%. If you like yours somewhat sweet, the 50%-75% is probably best. If you like it sweet, but not too sweet than 25% is your jam. I'm a big fan of mango and they use a sweet puree style for their slushes and though their mango jasmine tea might not have mango bits, at 100% you are tasting the sweetest mango there ever was slapping you across the mouth with intensity. There are several different places to grab drinks and walk around Colorado Blvd in Old Town but I think few are quite as easy and affordable than Sunright Tea Studio. So grab yourself a sweet tea, fall into the California sunset, and enjoy your stroll through Old Town. read more

Love Sunrise. We ordered a brûlée latte, a mango jasmine tea, their boba milk tea, and a taro milk tea. I Loved that their taro milk tea and that there was Real taro (and not the powdered form). Also guys? Just the right amount of sugar and ice ratio! Does this mean you'll change your hours so I can get BBT at sunrise? read more

We make a trip to old town Pasadena to grab drinks from Sunright Tea and Food from Mama Lu's Dumpling House. Parking is a pain there, but once you get parking figured out then it is easy. We walk along Colorado street and follow the shop. The place was filled with people waiting for drinks. Thank goodness for online orders, we placed ours. The shop was clean and welcoming, but not one staff member to be seen. OMG, I did not see the sign ring for service. HAHAHA! I dinged and then someone came out from the back. I told them my order and pow he was back with it. Their signature fruit tea is made with four seasons tea, freshly squeezed orange juice, passionfruit and served with lemon & orange slices was so so good. read more

What's up: We were at the Apple Store nearby and wanted to grab some boba. We were walking and saw that Sunright was nearby and decided to go there. Parking: We parked at the De Lacey parking structure. It's $1 for the first 2 hours but they also have free EV charging if you are able to grab a spot. Environment: The place was bright and well lit. You can place your order at the self serve kiosks located on the right wall; the menu is displayed overhead. When ready, pick up your drinks at the main counter; they will call your name. There's also a small corner area for merch. Along the left wall, there's a sitting area. What was ordered: - Matcha Oolong Milk Tea with Brown Sugar Boba (extremely watered down. The only taste was from the boba) Yay/Nay/Meh: Meh. I was disappointed. The drink didn't have much flavor and the only saving grace was the boba. My brother got a coffee and his tasted great. I think I was just unlucky. Credit cards and Apple Pay accepted. read more

Very amazing drink! Boba not comparable to wushiiland but still amazing! One of my top list for boba places. The panda milk tea is delicious. I had it half sugar and everything was perfect. Would definitely buy again when I'm not on a diet. read more

The Oreo Brûlée milk tea was truly one of the best things I've ever had. I wish they had one of these in the antelope valley!

Sunright is just alright! I don't think the hype of a few years ago is apt but it is a solid spot for boba and they have so many locations now that it's quite convenient to get this. My money saving hack is ordering a $4.95 small drink from the kids menu, where they have orange yakult, strawberry tornado, hokkaido milk tea, and one other option thats slipping my mind right now. My go to is the strawberry kids drink which comes with boba but weirdly asks you to choose between "less ice" and "no ice" which is markedly strange for a blended drink. Still good for the price and one of the rare ways you can still get a drink for under $7 these days! read more

Sunright has boomed in the past couple of years to multiple locations. The Pasadena location is small but gets the job done with a quick process of ordering your drink and being along your merry way. Not too much seating to sit and mingle but there's a wall bench to sit while you wait for your drink to be prepared. This particular time I got the Thai Tea which was pretty solid, not too sweet but not a super strong tea flavor. Sunright is always on the list as boba options if you're craving! read more

I ordered the Mango yakult tea after just scrolling Yelp. It was door dashed to me with my other order. When I say ," OH so good ", I mean heaven. I am truly going yo try out an array of Flavors . You got me Sunright Tea Studio. I think I'm in love read more

This is a great location for boba if you just want a drink as you wander around old town Pasadena. They do not have any tables for you to sit down (only a bench to sit while you wait for your drink). No bathroom. You order through the kiosk for the most part so sometime you can only pay with card. Service is fast and efficient. Quality is good and consistent. I recommend going way less sweet for the fruit tea and your default sweetness for everything else. read more

After a day of gluttony, I was finishing up my Salt and Straw nom nom when everyone that kept walking past me had these yummy looking drinks. I finally stopped someone and asked where was this place and headed over after as I had become quite thirsty. I was not looking for anything heavy but rather a fruity tea to quench my thirst. As it was my first time, I asked a worker for her recommendation and she suggested the Sunright Fruit Tea prepared just as it came. I went with that and it did not disappoint as you can tell from the pic where the drink is nearly gone. The drink is a fruit tea made with four seasons tea, freshly squeezed orange juice, passionfruit and served with lemon and orange slices. It was the best tasting "orange juice" ever! Whatever this sorcery is, it is a must have. Another food addiction to add to my list...sigh. This place is in the middle of Old Town Pas so ya'll know the parking drill - park in a structure. read more

Sunright is currently my go-to boba place, and don't see that changing for the time being. I'm a big fan of most of their drinks, and think the tapioca quality is above average, which is a plus, but always find myself coming back for their drinks! My current favorite is the Kafka collab drink, an elevated blueberry smoothie with jasmine green tea grass jelly. The mango green milk tea is also really good if it's not warm enough for a frostie. l'd recommend ordering online for pickup to skip the line. You can also mostly ignore the estimated pickup time, as sometimes the store is basically empty and your drink is instantly ready, while other times the location is packed and it'll be 10-15 minutes later than promised. There's a bit of sitting room at this location, which is nice to see. read more

Service is fast (you order on mobile screens), and drinks are unique and solid. This time, I got the lemon black tea, with 50% sugar. I LOVE sour things, but just wanted to give you guys a heads up that if you don't get 100% sugar for lemon drinks, it will be very, very sour. Comparable to eating a lemon. However, the tea was high quality, and service was under 3 minutes. They've also recently updated their doors to be ADA automatic. Parking is terrible, but if you're walking through Old Town, this place is a good place to stop by. read more

TLDR: Sunright is one of my most favorite tea places EVER- EVERYTHING IS SO GOOD, AND HUGE VARIETY! (My lactose-free + anti-caffeine friends, you're in luck!) MUST TRY is the Oreo Brulee Boba milk! I will always, ALWAYS recommend this place to tea+boba lovers. Because I have tried many locations and many items on their menu and please trust me when I say that everything is SO. YUM. This chain is DELISH. Also, this place has SUCH variety!! There's delicious boba milk options for those who don't want to consume caffeine at night and there are oat milk alternatives for my lactose-free people! Also lots of fruit tea options if you want dairy-free drinks Boba drinks I ALWAYS order and highly recommend: -Oreo Brulee Boba Milk (5/5): (SO. GOOD. PLS TRY. The brulee and oreo combo is ELITE!!! And if you're a mochi obsesser like me- ADD MOCHI. Their mochi is so fun and yum to add!!!) -Sunright Boba Milk Tea (5/5): A classic milk tea drink that is always done right!! Other recs: -Mochi Matcha Frostie with Red Bean (5/5): (The frostie texture, the matcha, mochi, red bean...delish combo.) -Sunright Fruit Tea (5/5): (Refreshing, fruity, delicious.) read more

I visit this place often for their matcha oolong with boba, and the tea is excellent. However, I have an issue with the boba. Sometimes it's perfectly soft with a chewy, sweet center, but other times it's just soft and mushy. I'd give this place five stars if they could deliver perfect boba consistently. The service is always good and prompt. The store always look clean. No complaints there. read more

I've been here so many times.. how could I have forgotten to write a review!? Just come here. That's all, haha. Seriously though, Sunright is a MUST! I love a lot of their drinks, which is pretty rare for a tea shop. The quality of their drinks is just so good! My favorites are the match milk tea, jasmine milk tea, and the yakult lemon drink. All do well with 75% sugar and regular ice for me. The jasmine tea jelly is amazing, and the brown sugar boba is literally the best! This location has kiosks that make the ordering process so easy. If my drinks ever need to be adjusted, the workers here are always so accommodating and friendly. Downtown Pasadena... parking is tough. The parking structure is about a 3 minute walk. read more

Sunright never disappoints! The Pasadena location is located on Colorado, a few storefronts from the Cheesecake Factory. The location is nice and bright. It is a small space with one bench on the side for folks to sit while they wait for their drinks. Like I said before Sunright never disappoints. The drinks are delicious. This is my first time ordering a hot drink from Sunright. I usually order cold drinks but tonight really called for a hot drink. We came after dinner at around 9 and it was very busy. My friend and I ordered through the kiosk. The kiosks are so easy to use. I ordered a hot pudding boba milk tea. The brown sugar boba was good and added a little bit of sweetness and the pudding was good. I don't like my milk tea to be overly sweet so I get at 75% sweetness and it was just right for me. Since it was busy, my friend and I decided to walk around the block while we waited for our drinks and by the time we came back they were ready. read more

Interesting concept. You walk in and order on a tablet. No workers in sight until they bring your order out and they are in a rush to get back in and don't know much about ingredients as it relates to allergies and there is nothing posted. It's a bright white light space with yellow neon. Solid drinks. read more

My favorites are Motto and Chi Cha San Chen, which are in the area, but Sunright Tea Studio has been very popular among locals. The drinks are pretty good quality, with a variety to choose from. You can order from touchscreen kiosk, and wait for your drinks to be made in the kitchen. I tried their wintermelon milk tea with brown sugar boba. The tea itself is quite clear and fragrant, and the boba is chewy and well-cooked, and sweet too (but perhaps only as sweet as the sugar it's coated in). However, the drinks have a sort of aftertaste that's common among boba joints (it might have something to do with the sweetener or the boba itself)... Regardless, the tea itself is great, and I love Sunright's selection and honey boba (which is crystal boba, but not the agar kind)! I look forward to trying their other toppings and fruit drinks. read more

Came here after having lunch around the area. No service. You order from a self serve touch pad on the wall and wait for your name/ order to be called. That's literally it. Parking can be a challenge since this is old town Pasadena and parking can be expensive. Drinks were good with the adjusted sweetness. I ordered a sunright fruit tea. Wouldn't come here just for the drinks because parking is not convenient. But if I'm eating around here I would come again. read more
