Really enjoyed my visit to T4! I tried the Lemon Black Tea and it was super refreshing -- a nice balance of citrus and tea flavor, not too sweet, and perfect for a hot day. The drink tasted fresh and the staff were friendly as well. Definitely coming back to try more drinks! read more

T4 - Taiwanese Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

Great Drinks with reasonable pricing. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Fun and very clean space.

My family loves coming here for boba tea. I highly recommend the green tea with boba and no sugar! It tastes very fresh and the service is very friendly and attentive. Can't wait to come back soon! read more

T4 - Green tea with boba, no sugar, 30% ice. - Taiwanese Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

Service here is incredibly slow and the drinks aren't even worth the wait. Another customer waiting for his order had to request a cancellation and refund since he couldn't wait any longer and had to leave. It's a wonder to me how this place has such positive reviews. Note: we visited several months ago and haven't returned since hence a recent transaction would be difficult to find. read more

I came here around 3pm on a Monday. You order off a kiosk machine. The store has a few seats, perfect for me to get some work done while I enjoyed the Rose Milk Tea which was delicious! The staff is friendly. The store has all kinds of cute plushy toys that you can purchase as well as some claw machines. They confirmed they did not have store-specific wifi but I could use the mall-wide wifi without issues. Parking was a parking lot for the mall. read more

This is a preliminary review for one drink only. They seem to be promising with snack items that could be good. I am optimistically giving them 3 stars despite not liking my drink. This bubble tea shop is cutesy with a theme color that leverages Tiffany's. The shop sells craft kits and cute dolls that distracted me enough that I forgot to take a photo of my drink. The staff was busy with the after-dinner mall wanderers. Many shops are closed (past 7pm), and they did a great job taking advantage of this bored crowd with next-to-nothing to see. (If you know Factoria Mall, you know what I mean.) Red Bean Milkshake, $6.75 - 2 Stars This is a very bland, watery red bean milkshake. I have had much, much better red bean shakes in the past (try Seattle Best Tea). The thickness of this drink didn't measure up to being a milkshake or a smoothie. The red bean flavor is barely noticeable. I was excited to find a place on the Eastside to have this drink, but nope, fail. On the other hand, try them as a gift shop. They have unique items. read more

Cute shop inside of Factoria mall offering drinks and Taiwanese street foods. I got the red bean egg waffle and the rose milk tea with mochi and enjoyed it. The egg waffle was crispy on the edges and chewy and soft in the inside, and I liked how there were real red beans inside. The egg waffle is definitely on the plainer/less sweet side though so if you're a sweet tooth I definitely recommend getting the dipping sauce with it. Meanwhile the rose milk tea was very fragrant and refreshing. The rose taste is strong and is perfect for someone craving that floral taste. It is quite sweet though so I would recommend getting at least 50% if not 30% sugar. The cloud mochi was the perfect topping and I liked its texture. The store also sells Rolife blind boxes and DIY houses, in addition to having Japanese style claw machines in the back. read more

Was doing a little shopping at Target, and decided to try the place out. Got the Grapefruit Royal Tea, which is one of my go-to flavors, and the Basil Popcorn Chicken. The Grapefruit tea was refreshing and tasty, and I enjoyed it at the 30% sugar level. The Basil Popcorn Chicken was also good; my bf really liked it. Would like to try other fruit tea flavors. read more

Seattle-Area Boba Shop Review #94 I used to have a T4 within walking distance of where I lived. It wasn't my store of choice for boba, but whenever we had friends over who wanted both drinks and fried snacks, it was a great place to hang out, especially given the ample seating. I certainly wasn't expecting to see a location open up in Bellevue! This particular store, at Factoria, doesn't have quite the same atmosphere, given that it's in a busy mall. But the decor is the same and the menu looks somewhat familiar. There are two large kiosks right in front for ordering. Unfortunately the employees are so busy in the back making boba that they aren't available for questions (and I had several to ask). I do like how the kiosks show how many drinks are in the queue and the estimated wait time. For us, it stated 15 drinks and 6 minutes. It actually took 8 minutes so I guess it's pretty accurate. Soy Milk Tea, 30% Ice, 50% Sugar w/ Boba ($6.70) - The tea is actually quite strong in this drink, tasting deeply woody and earthy with quite a bit of smoky charcoal notes, which reminds me of a strong lapsong souchang. It's dark in color even after mixing with the soymilk and is a pretty thin and watery drink rather than being rich and thick in mouthfeel. The sweetness level, recommended at half, is not too sweet at all. Compared to many other boba shops, it's probably actually around 25% sweet (I'm guessing this only applies to the soy milk drinks since some other reviews state the drinks are actually on the sweet side at 50%). The boba isn't great however. The pearls are quite firm so they don't have a great chew or bounce. They are marinated decently, however, leaving the exterior softly disintegrating and sweet. Milk Tea Rating: 4.5/5 Boba Rating: 3.5/5 I'm actually surprised that the tea flavor was so good since my experience with the other T4 location wasn't nearly as good. Unfortunately the boba isn't the best. I guess T4 is a good choice if I find myself shopping at the T&T next door again (doubtful given that the Lynnwood location will be opening up next month!). Bathrooms - None in store, but T4 is situated right next door to the larger mall bathrooms. read more

I think this place definitely has potential for 5 star but I would need to come back to try their other items. This place have been on my list for a bit and so I finally had the Chance to check them out. I came right when they were open and they already had a few people waiting to order. The lady there seems nice and knowledgeable. She was helping one of the customer with questions and even asked if I needed a bag for my items. What I got: Wintermelon with jelly warm 5/5: I love that you have the option of warm or hot. Warm was the perfect temperature to drink it right away. I got 0 sugar and was surprised at how sweet it was. The lady Said it was all from the wintermelon. Popcorn chicken 4/5; very flavorful but needs a crunch. Tofu 3/5; needs crunch, needs salt. I was surprised at how bland this was Overall, i definitely want to come back to try other things read more

T4 is a needed and nice addition in the Factoria mall as surprisingly, there was no boba spot here before. I was glad to learn of T4 opening in the area, especially since it's a busy shopping area and neighborhood. I ordered the mango jasmine tea and added coconut jelly, which was solid. I was able to order and pay on the touchscreen and customize the amount of ice and sugar I wanted. The order didn't take long at all to make on a Sunday afternoon. There were a few patrons sitting inside as there are a few tables and chairs here. The menu is large, with a lot to choose from. Whatever kind of boba or tea you're craving, they likely have it. In addition to drinks, they have snacks, like popcorn chicken and they also sell collectible toys in blind boxes. Glad to get my boba fix at T4 in the Factoria mall. read more

Pretty cool to have a T4 in Washington! I wouldn't say they're that well known but wouldn't be surprised if there's a decent following. I hadn't heard of them until I interned in the bay area and they were pretty common. That, combined with being in convenient locations, made me stop by every so often. Their tea is pretty good. Located in the mall by Factoria, there's plenty of parking, but it does get packed with T&T in the same area. Grocery shopping and getting boba is a great combo though. There are two machines to order from and they also sell some blind box items. Washroom available for the entire mall right next to T4. Felt a little slow, so expect a bit of a wait compared to other spots. Roasted Oolong Milk Tea w/ Mixed Pearl - I was expecting the mixed pearl to be regular boba and amber boba but it's a triple threat with the baby boba! Getting to try a variety is always nice. Regular boba was good, had a solid chew and actual flavor. Amber boba was new to me but was squishier and more fun to chew with a fantastic bounce. Almost like boba made in house elsewhere (so possibly made in house here). Unfortunately the tea was just okay. There wasn't a solid roast flavor and was more of a black tea base rather than oolong which means the tea was oxidized too much, or I got the wrong tea. read more

I came here inside Factoria Mall to have lunch. The inside is literally a light blue color with a simple and clean feel and blind boxes displayed around, and there's three tables to sit at inside if you do decide to dine in. It feels like a cute European cafe inside that's been cleaned daily. For ordering, you may either do so at the kiosk up front or order up at the counter. Servers will ask the same questions as shown on the kiosk in terms of ice levels, sweetness and toppings, so you won't miss out ordering either way. If you want boba in your drinks, you'll have to wait until around 12:45pm if you do come to get stuff before then. I got their royal fresh milk tea (30% ice, 50% sweetness, boba) and basil popcorn chicken (mild spicy). Together, they balanced each other; one was really salty and a little spicy but as expected of popcorn chicken, and the other was slightly watered down for 50% but oddly worked well. Tea is fresh and boba is average but relatively chewy. Popcorn chicken was definitely mildly spicy, though there was hardly any basil inside to be considered basil popcorn chicken. Everything I got was still quite enjoyable and I waited about 10 or so minutes to get my order. Servers were also really friendly. There's the jadelite royal tea and other specialty drinks I wanna give a try when I make another visit to Factoria Mall in the future. read more

T4 is inside the Factoria Mall. It replaced the previous boba spot that was there. T4 is honestly one of my favorite boba spots because of the Jadeite Royal Tea. Staff: Nice (5/5) Sanitation status: Super Clean (5/5) Jadeite Royal Tea(5/5) This taste like a high mountain Oolong Tea. My life hack is getting it with no ice and lychee jelly then putting it in the freezer. I love eating it this way like an icee Fried Calamari (5/5) I really do like the fried calamari here as well. I would definitely say it does taste really fishy so if you're not into that you probably won't like it that much. I like to get extra spice and seasoning as well. It stays pretty crispy and the inside is pretty soft. read more

Excited to have boba back in Factoria! The owner Joy is super friendly and takes the time to explain all the choices and a bit about their brand. Bright and a few tables available to dine in. You can adjust the sugar and ice levels. I would say it is on the sweeter side. The boba was perfect consistency and enjoyed the basil chicken too! Will definitely be back to try other drinks and food items. read more

We decided to go and try this out! They just opened yesterday! They have many things on their menu but I decided on the boba cake milk tea (80% sweet). The lady did say it was on the sweeter side but when I tasted the 80% I actually wish I went with the regular sweet. She was really nice and explained the history of the brand, along with explaining each drink! They have hot items as well, such as curly fries, and popcorn chicken, etc. It is located in the factoria mall! I'd come back here again to try other drinks. Next time I'd go with regular sweetness. Also be nice, it's backed up a little because of new workers probably. read more

Really great drinks! I love their mochi cloud drink! Very different, and unique cloud foam with mochi texture. Definitely a must get when you're in factoria mall. If there are lines, the wait to be longer than what you want to wait for bbtea. But indefinitely a diamond in the rough if there is no lines. Highly recommend trying. Only downside was that the place is a bit run down. And the floors are super sticky. Get my bbtea to go, and walk around target or T&T! read more

T4's taro milk tea is Super rich and creamy with a real taro flavor instead of just sweetness. Adding the Royal Tea version is the best -- makes it extra flavorful and perfectly balanced without being too heavy. Smooth, comforting, and definitely one of my favorite taro milk teas in Seattle. read more

this spot in the mall has been a rotating bubble tea spot for a long LOONG time - every time the spot shuts down because the drinks are mid. I fear this may happen again... it is cuter than all the other shops that have been in this space, but this is much much lower in quality compared to the spots in downtown Bellevue. T4 has a larger variety of drink types compared to previous shops here but the quality continues to be mediocre. It took us 15 minutes to receive our drinks on a Saturday afternoon when it was moderately busy. They also have other snacks and they took around 20 minutes to come out. They also sell a small variety of blind boxes. read more

What a great place to get popcorn, chicken and milk teas and other drinks in Factoria. I've always been a huge fan of T4 for outside of Washington state I'm glad that they have one here. The popcorn chicken was very good, I did notice that there wasn't really any basil or basil flavor, but the chicken was very juicy and delicious . The drink was a little bit too sweet for me. Service was really good and I would come back. read more

The soy milk tea was pretty good and I really liked the mini boba. The cake milk tea was very tasty and quite rich. I wish they had more nondairy options than just the two drinks but they have lots of flavors. They also have fruit teas too. The servers were efficient. You order on the screen and they call it out when it's ready. They have a few small booths for dine in but all drinks are packaged to go. read more

T4 is a new bubble tea place which just opened a few days ago in Factoria Mall, currently in their soft opening. Tried their lychee black tea with aloe, 30% sugar, 30% ice. The tea is good and lychee flavor is well balanced, and the tea goes well with the aloe topping. There's a touchscreen kiosk to order to drinks and some food items, and a few tables inside to enjoy your drinks. read more

I work at T-Mobile nearby and recently stopped by T4, Themed Tea House during my lunch break. Grabbed a classic milk tea and an egg waffle -- both were simple but really satisfying. The milk tea was smooth and balanced, and the egg waffle came out warm with the perfect crispy texture. Nice cozy spot to recharge for a bit before heading back to work read more

My favorite item here is definitely their stinky tofu, so flavorful and authentic! Their basil popcorn chicken is also really good, though I personally wish it was just a little bit crispier. My husband loved their bento box, and overall the flavors reminded us so much of Taiwan. We visited Taiwan twice in 2023 and 2024, and honestly, their street food style dishes here aren't far from the real thing. We also ordered drinks but forgot to take photos. I got the Honey Grass Jelly, and my husband had the drink that comes with his bento box (we forgot what he ordered ). Both were refreshing. The service is great, and they communicate with us clearly, even letting us know if we were missing anything in our order. The ambiance is very quiet since it's inside Factoria Mall, which makes the dining experience calm and relaxing. Overall, we definitely want to come back again whenever we're in the area and try more of their street food menu. I'm even thinking of bringing my husband's cousin who is actually Taiwanese because their menu is written in Mandarin too. read more

This gotta to be the cutest boba tea house/retailing shop I have seen in Seattle area. Their lychee black tea has a rich earl greg base but balanced perfectly with lychees sourness.

I wanted to give this place another chance, but unfortunately the service was extremely slow. I waited about 20 minutes for my order. The fried chicken was prepared faster than my drink, which was surprising. What was more concerning was a food safety issue: a piece of my chicken fell onto the table, and it was picked up with bare hands; no gloves or tongs. I was offered a refry, but that would make the chicken drier, and I was uncomfortable after seeing how it was handled. The staff should be retrained on proper food safety procedures. Additionally, having only one person making drinks significantly slows service; having at least two would greatly improve efficiency since it was a team of 3. read more

This a pretty convenient and cute store. It is located next to Dim Sum Factory and T&T. I ordered the cake milk tea and it was delicious. The tea flavor was really smooth with no powdery taste and the boba was the right consistency. I wish there was more cake cream in it. I had a feeling the sweetness levels here are high since I got mines 30% sweet but it was still sweet more like a normal 75%. It was also very decently priced. We were able to get two drink for about $14 that is almost impossible nowadays for boba. The only downside was it took a while to get our drinks. read more

This place is a month old and a wonderful new addition to the Factoria mall, considering there's not many great boba places in the immediate area, so I stopped here for a refreshing peach smoothie. It's been ridiculously hot outside. The manager or owner talked to me and was very nice and welcoming. The peach smoothie literally tasted like I was biting into a peach, completely natural taste. So if you like highly sugary stuff, this isn't the pick for you. The shop is tiny and very kawaii with these blind boxes of the 'Nanci' doll making it feel like a legit little gachapon place. I will definitely be back for a sweet treat to beat the heat read more

This T4 location really wasn't operating at the right frequency. The staff seemed distracted, like their minds were somewhere else. It wasn't even busy, but it took what felt like an eternity to get a couple of simple milk teas. My order was as basic as it gets: less ice, no toppings. Somehow, I still got a cup full of ice. I wasn't the only one, either. Customers before and after me had issues with their orders, too. This isn't complicated. Train your staff better. Read the labels--that's why they're there. Pay attention to what people are ordering. If you want your business to succeed, you have to do better, especially in a competitive market where there are plenty of tea spots that get it right. I hope to see better reviews in the future, because right now, this isn't worth coming back to. read more
