    Unrestricted parking across the street near BMO bank & Casa Del Toro as suggested by T4 worker
    Sherri W.

    While passing through Hayward & wanting a boba tea, T4 was one of the suggested places. I've gone to the one in San Leandro but not to this store. It was quite spacious, so I could see people studying or hanging out at this location. Service was done in person so bc it wasn't busy I was able to just tell the cashier my order. Unfortunately instead of her hearing I wanted the Rose Tea, she gave me the Roasted Oolong tea. I didn't bother to go back to correct it but next time would probably just order it from the kiosk. Order: Roasted Oolong Tea w/boba-fragrant oolong tea with 50% sugar & no ice was the right amount of sweetness, but I would rather have had the Rose Tea. Despite this order mishap, the service is great. I was even shown where to park when I come back next time. Just go across the street & you don't need to worry about a time limit. I thought this was very helpful info. So I'll be back to visit soon.

    Great location in downtown Hayward and open late, which is always a plus. The staff was friendly and super helpful, and the place was clean inside. They even have games you can play while you're there, which is a fun touch. I ordered the chocolate milkshake with 50% sweetness and almond milk--so good. Highly recommend!

    Quickly / T4 not sure of the branding. Either way they make a delicious Brown Sugar Boba Milk Tea, added Oreo for personal preference

    Rose milk tea
    Erly M.

    I can't find rose milk tea in other places so I was over the moon when I saw that there was a T4 while I was walking. There was one in Castro Valley that closed a while ago. Since then I moved and I always kept my eye on finding rose milk tea but didn't have much luck. It was good I'm no expert on bobba tea but I found the flavor that I was looking for so that's great! I got 50% sweetness and it was perfect sweetness for me, not too sweet.

    Popcorn Chicken nice and crispy
    Lore M.

    Ordered on DoorDash for me and some coworkers. Loved my drink order Taro Milk Tea w/ sea salt cream. My coworkers were happy with their drink orders as well. Popcorn chicken is good, I asked for a side of chili powder which wasn't given. I know when you go in person you put your own chili powder, but they should have a better system for people who order on DoorDash.

    T4 is always my go to place when I want to get boba drinks. The staffs are nice and service is always great. Love the variety of drinks and food.

    Service was amazing and they were so patient with me! Nice and spacious and it smelled amazing. I tried a new tea and the popcorn chicken! So glad I found a place that I can relax in. I'll definitely be back!

    Inside

    I decided to stop by to get a hot drink since it was cold outside. I didn't have to wait long after I placed my order since there were only a few people inside. My go-to order is The Earl Grey Milk Tea with Agar Pearl 50% sweet. The agar was super melted when the drink was hot, but once the drink started to cool down, the pearl was the perfect texture (super chewy). I have ordered this drink in the past, and from my memory, it was always chewy even when the drink was hot. Guess this means I will have to come back again to give this drink a try and do 0% sweet.

    Popcorn Chicken
    Brenda M.

    I stopped here on my way to the movies next door and it did not disappoint! I ordered popcorn chicken and it was cooked perfectly plus they had Sriracha sauce! The caramel milk tea tastes authentic and not powdery. It is also very spacious with 9 tables inside and restrooms available for customers. The employees are very kind and provide quick service. I'll definitely come back next time I'm in the area!

    5 snacks and a drink $43.26
    Rebecca B.

    Ordered fried lobster ball, egg puff, popcorn chicken, takoyaki, fried squid, and taro milktea with honeydew popping boba for delivery. Decent snacks and drinks, nothing to rave about. Popcorn chicken didn't come with spicy powder. Tip: heat the egg puffs in the toaster oven to make them crispy.

    Strawberry lemonade & Oreo
    Javier P.

    It's been a few years since I've had T4. Not into it like I used to be. Walked in with my six year old niece because she was thirsty and wanted the Oreo drink and the strawberry lemonade for me. I returned 30 minutes later with my mom, my sister, and my seven month old niece past out in my arms because they were getting their nails done earlier. My niece started making moves on the new drinks lol. It wasn't busy Sunday afternoon which made the service fast.

    My favorite popcorn chicken
    Lai L.

    T4 has always been one of my favorite boba places to go. We usually always order the same thing each time we go because we know what we like. I usually like to call in before I go, because their online ordering system is a little slow. I think ordering via phone or in person is faster. The staff is pretty friendly and their drinks always hit the spot. I always have to get the basil popcorn chicken when I go. They have the best popcorn chicken! I don't know what they put in there, but I know there are a lot of spices! My go-to milk tea is always the wintermelon, and my husband and son always get their favorites: pineapple slush and strawberry milkshake -- all with boba! I like that all the T4 drinks are consistent every location I go to! I also think the location is great...a little of a drive for me, but worth it.

    Ricca Cathrina E.

    Love the service when we go here. Staff is always friendly and service is fast. Place is always clean and organized. Nice location in downtown near other establishments in case you want to hit other stores. Limited strew parking but there is a free parking by the movie theater, walking distance from the location.

    I came to this I-Tea on my lunch break last week. Ordering was easy with a girl at the cash…read moreregister. She was friendly & nice. I ordered the B4 Tofuhua & Red bean Milk Tea and Basil Popcorn chicken. The wait was not fast, but that's okay. They gave me a buzzer so it vibrated when my order was ready. The place had plenty of seating along the wall for people to sit while waiting for their items, but no tables though. So it's definitely a more grab and go vibe. The place seemed clean and colorful. The drink was creamy & yummy. The popcorn chicken was spicy, hot, and delicious! I loved them both! I would definitely return again the next time I'm in the area! :)

We originally came for the Fresh Strawberry Lemon Breeze, but they were sold out. No worries though, the staff recommended the Mango Pomelo, and it ended up being a great choice. The kids absolutely loved it and finished every last drop. We also ordered the Popcorn Chicken and Golden Sesame Balls, and both were excellent. The popcorn chicken was crispy, juicy, and came with a surprisingly generous portion. The chopped garlic on top is such a simple touch, but it really takes the flavor up a notch. The golden sesame balls came out hot and fresh with the perfect chewy texture. Friendly service, tasty food, and a convenient location make this an easy recommendation. If you're in Castro Valley and looking for a quick snack or boba run, i-Tea is definitely worth a visit. Looking forward to coming back to finally try that Strawberry Lemon Breeze!

My friend called ahead to reserve a table, and just a heads up--they do have a cancellation fee, so be sure your group is committed before booking. The space is small, cozy, and beautifully decorated, making it feel really homey. They have a great selection of teas, and with the afternoon tea set you get to choose three sandwich flavors. I picked the smoked salmon, chicken curry, and kaya toast, and they were all delicious. I especially loved that they incorporated Malaysian-inspired flavors into a traditional afternoon tea experience. For my tea, I chose the Earl Grey Lavender, which was fragrant and delicious. I also added the Malaysian pulled tea for an extra $7. It was a fun experience and a generous serving since you also get a full pot of tea. Overall, everything was delicious, the atmosphere was adorable, and the service was great. I'd definitely recommend Malaya Tea Room if you're looking for a cozy afternoon tea spot with a unique Malaysian twist for a special occasion or a catch-up with friends!

The set up is very tight - we got the window table and people had to scootch into the corner, with no way out unless everyone left. The staff were nice to wait for all of our attendees prior to starting, and then they promptly took our tea orders. We had already put in our food order when we made the reservation, so they brought out the tiered plates after the tea was served. - FOOD/DRINK - I enjoyed my White Tea, but unfortunately, I don't remember what it was called. Each pair got a tower, so since we had 10 people, we got 5 towers. My favorites from our selection: - Kaya Sandwich - Umami meatfloss with basil house spread Sandwich - Curry Chicken Sandwich - Scone The desserts were a bit lackluster in my opinion. I was really looking forward to the pandan cake, but it didn't taste a lot like pandan. - OVERALL - A cute spot for afternoon tea, or if you're celebrating something! Just would recommend a smaller party for comfort!

It's small but cozy and clean. I wanted to try all of the flavors - regular, chili oil scallion, and corn cheese. The regular was the best out of the other two in my opinion since it was simple but the bread could have been crisper even though it was warmed up. The other two flavors were very oily and too heavy. Glad I finally tried it, but I think I'm just going to stick to their macaroons.
