    Thai Green Milk Tea, Hokkaido Milk Tea
    Vivian T.

    I came here with my sister to try out the local boba shop! They have a wide variety of drinks as well as cake selections. As an avid Boba drinker I would recommend getting less sugar since the 100% is fairly sweet. Today when I went into the store they were also having a buy one get one free deal for select drinks on Thursdays!

    Tiramasu, Cold Earl gray with Tiramasu foam
    Callista O.

    This place popped up in my grubhub options today and I just had to try. I ordered a cold earl gray tea with tiramasu foam as well as a slice of their tiramasu cake. Both are really good and not too sweet, just right. The only negative for me is that the drink is not cold enough so I'll have to put it in the fridge for a little bit. But order arrived fast, no spills, the drink container is really cute and made of hard plastic (i think it's reusable). Will definitely order again and try other items in their menu.

    Came to this spot because I was craving boba and cake. Small cute shop! The drink I got was good and the slice of Oreo chocolate cake hit the spot. There's a good variety of drink options to choose from. Hokkaido milk tea with boba - I could have cut the sugar a tiny bit but flavor was on point. Boba was perfectly cooked as well! Oreo chocolate cake - perfect sweetness for me! Soft and fluffy. I devoured that piece and could have had more.

    Such a cute shop and all her drinks are Gram worthy to post!!! As well as being cute they are delicious. I am all about supporting small businesses. So come through and get you a fancy tea.. and hen in doubt pinkies out

    Outdoor seating area has about 6 seats. Indoor seating area is kinda small/narrow. Street parking. We got the cake balls - very rich however not overly sweet. They're all red velvet with different decorations/toppings. It comes in a set of 4 for $5. We also got 2 matcha lattes ($5 each) - not bad. Cozy little spot we ended up checking out while at the La Verne car show today 11/20/21.

    People who work there are super sweet, always work very quickly and will give you recommendations! Sometimes can be too sweet but I just found out you can adjust the sweetness if you ask.

    Cinnamon Milk Tea
    Ericka B.

    I believe this is one of the only few good food places open in Old Town La Verne, there's a small variety of drinks and desserts to select from. However, I believe it's too pricey. The boba deserves to be at least $4.50-5.00, NOT almost $7. The Cinnamon Milk Tea is pretty good though, it reminds me of an Auntie Anne's Cinnamon Pretzel. Yeah, there are plenty of cinnamon drinks out there like horchata, but this tastes like they literally blended the pretzel into the drink. All I wish is that they could give the option to choose what size, because I can never finish my boba drinks and end up wasting it. Last time I was here, I bought tiramisu but I felt like I was going to choke from the amount of cocoa powder on the top layer. That's probably just me LOL, but I would be down to go here again for sweet tooth craves if I ever visit Old Town La Verne.

    So delicious! My family and I stopped in and ordered 2 green tea w/ honey and 1 almond milk tea w/boba... both very good perfect sweetness and flavor, The boba also tasted good. The cafe was cute and clean and the service was also wonderful. The case of small baked goods looked fresh and beautiful, We will definitely be returning customers!

    Potted Plant Milk Tea
    Daniele P.

    I've been here twice and the drinks are delicious. I ordered the succulent strawberry foam drink that had tasty jellies in it. It had buttery foam that was unique and flavorful. My son ordered a galaxy tea which was the best tea we've tried thus far. You can taste the peach and a fusion of other flavors. We also got the potted plant milk tea which made things convenient if you are vegan. Plus, they always have excellent customer service. We look forward to returning.

    Hot chocolate & Red Velvet Cake
    Lady O.

    Delicious red velvet cake. Moist and sweetened just enough. Beautiful art on the hot chocolate.

    Kitty W.

    Super cute! :-) I had the matcha raw chocolate cake, which was rich and flavorful without being too sweet. The portion sizes for all of the cake slices in the window were generous; definitely coming back soon to try other flavors!

    Disappointing Oreo Milk Shake

    Stopped in after having dinner in downtown, thought it would be good since all the photos online look appetizing. Wrong. I carefully watched as my Oreo milkshake was being made and was disappointed to see a cup full of ice and milk go into the blender and scoop of Oreo dust thrown in. What? That's it? By the time I made it to my car I already had watered down milk.

    Sea salt oreo cream cake!
    todd r.

    this cake was perfect to cap our night off. the cake was light and fluffy. we can't wait to come back and try the Boba and coffees! don't sleep on this place!

    I wanted to try somewhere new that's close to the mall and found this place with great reviews…read more It's in a plaza and the inside look really nice and clean. Me and my family decided to try the Thai Tea Crème with boba, Artisan Milk Tea, and Peach Strawberry Fruit Tea. The Thai Tea Crème was delicious and creamy. The boba was soft and chewy. The Peach Strawberry Fruit Tea was refreshing and wasn't super sweet compared to other places I had try. It was perfect. The Artisan Milk Tea was yummy. I definitely would order all these drinks again and would like to try something new too. Even my family loved it! The staff were very friendly and helpful.

    Superficial observation: Without seeing a sign that says it's a boba place, when you look in it…read moredoesn't appear like it'd be a place that sells food or beverages. I'm not against minimalism, but IMHO the interior could use a few touches that draw you in from the sidewalk and indicate that there's boba tea and donuts. More seriously: I really dislike giving unflattering reviews for small businesses. In this case, I hope the business sees this and maybe makes improvements. But there were a few issues of cleanliness that had me nervous. And the coffee I ordered took almost 15 mins to come out and had a really unfortunately soapy aftertaste. Cleanliness: Minimalism can be look very chic, but if your chosen aesthetic is white and gold/chrome, you've got to keep it clean. This cafe needs a good deep clean. I was grossed out to see oil and dirt smudges on the backs and seats of the white leather chairs, like no one has wiped them down on a regular basis. The panel molding on the walls looks sleek and clean from far away, but once I sat down I could see a lot of dust. The counter where you pick up your order had a lot of dirt and remnants of spilled beverages at the base. The decor adjacent to the serving area was also really dusty. The chrome garbage bin could contribute to a modern, clean look but it looks grungy and sticky. It's the lack of attention to detail in cleanliness in the front of house that made me worry about what the prep areas might also look like. Beverages: I got an Americano and a mango fruit tea with lychee. The fruit tea was delicious and the lid and straw situation is actually unique and cute. That's where we're getting the two stars from. The Americano coffee on the other hand was really disappointing. For over five dollars, I was hoping for a good quality cup of joe. Despite it not being busy, it took nearly 15 mins before I was handed a coffee in a Christmas cup (it's April so maybe that should've been my sign that they've got Christmas cups bc no one likes the coffee?) that initially tasted ok, but then finished with a really soapy aftertaste. I had 3 different people taste it--everyone agreed it had a dish soap-like aftertaste that spoiled the coffee. Normally, I might ask for a do-over since it was pretty gross. But I didn't have another 10-15 mins to risk getting another soapy coffee. I seriously feel bad calling this place out. I wanted to like it! But at the very least I hope it inspires a deep clean and more care making sure they thoroughly rinse out coffee brewing equipment after washing it. Even if I'd only gotten the yummy mango fruit tea, the cleanliness issues still would've had me distressed. So two stars for now. Sorry!

I usually hit their San Marino spot, but this location still delivered the goods. The shop's a bit small inside, but service was nice. Grabbed my ride-or-die Koan-Im Oolong Latte and paired it with a donut from my favorite donut shop like I was assembling the perfect duo for a late night snack. The tea was lightly sweetened perfectly to my liking, smooth, and clearly crafted by someone who respects tea leaves more than I respect my sleep schedule. The cloud top was basically dalgona candy foam and felt like a bonus dessert after finishing the drink. Even with a lot of people waiing, service moved fast, in & out in about 7 mins. Quality tea, speedy service, and enough creamy foam happiness to make a milestone review feel deserved!! Highly recommend!!! Now for some poetry that's inspired my 1000th review: Warm glazed memories sift through my reverie. A pink box opened in the summer of 24. Days were bleak and hollow like a bakery shelf at closing. I saw the saddest eyes, soft as powdered sugar falling. Sweet like a dalgona cloud top koan-im oolong latte, but carrying a quiet ache no frosting could hide. That summer you saved me, like the first bite of something new when you thought you'd forgotten what butterflies felt like. The season changed and you suddenly disappeared.... just an empty pink box on the counter. Only crumbs remain now, where your strawberry-glazed humor used to melt into every moment like sugar on warm dough. My heart split like a jelly donut. Still, I'm grateful as the world is as it should be. I pass by the donut shop on 66 and smile. People think it's just about donuts. But once.... a long time ago, one saved my life.

Excellent service, they give drink of the day to sample, and nice well decorated interior.
