My Litto really loves boba, so I had to swing by Tastea for their dank dranks! We ordered the peach me sweetea, oolong milk tea, and strawberry milktea. Peach me sweetea definitely was the sweetest of the three. Strawberry milk tea and oolong milk tea were both amazing in their own way. I love how vibrant the colors looked and the taste were on point. Please note that this location only serves drinks and does not provide food. Friendly and welcoming staffs definitely makes ordering a lot easier. Definitely gotta come back to try their different flavors. read more

Wanted to try a new boba place so went there last week. I tried The Unknown (Mango and passion fruit black tea with diced longan) drink. I liked the diced longan in the drink. Crunchy. The drink was ok although a tad expensive for the size of the drink. They have some drinks that are unique. Very fast service. There are a few tables to sit, wish they had free wifi. read more

When I first visited, I thought it was a little sketchy just because my GPS took me through some weird roads & it was dark out already. I'm absolutely obsessed with their avocado avalanche, I don't think I've tried anything else LOL I always get large 'cause their large cup size is MASSIVE & my fiancé and I always share it! You can really taste the avocado and they crush the ice well (sometimes) so you don't end up crunching it in your mouth. Bummed that they don't sell snacks though - wish they did! During one of my last visits, the lid wasn't sealed properly so when I grabbed the drink, almost half the drink spilled. I asked if I can get a replacement 'cause it wasn't fully closed. The lady gave me attitude and said I had to pay for it and I told her but I literally just picked it up and the lid came off and she rolled her eyes at me and said you'll have to wait for my manager. I wasn't sure who the manager was but she never came back from wherever she went off to so I just left. 4 stars for my avocado avalanche but 2 stars for service. read more

Hmm not my favorite boba place. I've been here twice and have tried a few drinks: tiger milk tea, strawberry fruit tea, avocado smoothie, horchata drink. All of these were just okay to me, nothing great. The prices are also really expensive. The boba is pretty good but other places have equally good boba if not better. The service is usually quick, the inside is small and can house a few parties. read more

Tastea - Tiger Milk Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Newark, California

I am a very observant person; it maybe a flaw. I went here on a weekday night. Ordered a smoothie. The cashier who was helping me was wringing a towel that appeared dirty. She then poured out my smoothie and gave it to me. I will say she changed her gloves, but didn't use hand sanitizer. I didn't want them to re-make my drink so I just asked for a refund. I looked today and they did refund me, but not the tip. Like really? It's in the principal of it. That's fine. Here's a tip to people thinking of going - don't go if you care about cleanliness and your health! You can look at the proof in the pictures of the receipt and how it appeared on my banking app. read more

I'm not a huge boba person, but I love Tastea because of their huge menu option. I love Vietnamese iced coffee and their green Thai teas. Super delicious and fast service. I recently got their Tiger boba milk tea with oat milk which was super bomb! Their prices are a bit obsurd, $7.30 before tip for the Tiger boba milk tea but worth it once in a while. Also, the ice filled all the way to the top makes it hard to put the straw in causing the drink to spill and over flow which is the only con I have. I love that you can order on their app and just go pick it up. This Tastea is a little smaller than other locations but not a big deal. Plenty of parking in the lot. Friendly and fast service so I will return whenever I want boba. Highly recommend! read more

Tastea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Newark, California

The good: I tried a horchata crunch smoothie and asked for light sweetness. I liked that it wasn't too sweet and that the texture was smooth. There are Tastea locations all over California. The other location I went to had some drinks that were too sweet for my liking but it's nice that you can adjust the sweetness. The bad: There is no outdoor seating. The "crunch" for the horchata smoothie was just cinnamon toast crunch cereal on top. It would've been nice if there was some crunch aspect incorporated in the drink itself. On the plus side, the cereal didn't get soggy. The interesting: There were at least 6 workers at the time I came in. A few of them seemed to be messing around like a group of high school students on lunch break. It seemed like a lot of people for such a small shop. At the ordering counter they have a speakerphone to talk to you even though you're right in front of the cashier. It might have been something implemented during the pandemic. read more

Tastea - Horchata Crunch Smoothie - Bubble Tea Near Me - Newark, California

Came across Tastea and the only reason why I was so curious to try it was due to JustKiddingFilms YT video they did in 2010: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAwWcfqJvqc&t=132s I never seen it in the bay area until recently so I was excited and decided to give it a try. LOCATION: Off the 880 freeway Mowry Exit and in the same plaza as Central Computers, Lazy Dog, Pop Churros, etc. Plenty of parking in my opinion but half the of parking lot is loose gravel in a way so just a heads up. STORE: It's located on the corner of the plaza and its pretty COVID safe with a one way in and one way out system. After you order your drink (either in person or through the app) you wait outside until they call you to get the drink. There is a speaker outside of the shop so you don't have to constantly worry if your drink is ready and you didn't hear the call out. DRINKS: I think you are supposed to come here for the Fruit Tea drinks which I think taste better based on the recommendation by the staff but I'm a big milk tea drinker and I got the Matcha Thai Milk Tea instead. It was okay where the Matcha wasn't very strong and Thai tea was also muted so it didn't blow me away. It still tasted good though. CONCLUSION: I think I have to come back and try one of their Fruit Drinks in order to get the full experience though. I'll be back. read more

Just letting you know...this is the very first boba shop I know that offers stevia!! They also pump sultry sexy music outside while you wait for your drink to be made. When I visited, they had a bunch of online orders ready to go, so it seems like online ordering is a convenient option too. I got the horchata with lite stevia, and it was plenty sweet! But still tasted like Cinnamon Toast Crunch milk. Perhaps I will ask for xxxtra light stevia next time. This location of Tastea has shot up to first place in my book! As a diet conscious fatty, having a stevia option is a great treat! read more

Tastea - Horchata Milk Tea w stevia. Love the tamper proof seal! - Bubble Tea Near Me - Newark, California

Been a fan of Tastea for many years and it's nice that there is now a location much closer to me than going all the way to SJ. My favorite drink is their Strawberry Sensation slushie. I feel that Tastea is better known for their fruit drinks than milk tea, so would recommend trying out their fruity drinks more. Downside is this location is not obvious unless you know about it, its behind the McDonalds at NewPark and there is plenty of parking and inside seating. read more

I've found my latest boba obsession: Tastea's Almond Milk Tea, No Sweet, add holiday red & green Honey Boba + Cheese Foam! Couldn't believe the cheese foam topping is only 30 cents!! IKR, since when has an add on been less than 50 cents? When I saw the 1/2 inch layer, I realized why it was so cheap, but it definitely increases the creamy factor! A friend ordered Tastea for our group of work friends before, but it was still Summer so I went for a classic fruit tea in the form of Passion Attraction: passionfruit black tea w/ coconut jelly. I'm a less sugar, more tea kinda gal (for boba at least) so the no sweet option was perfect since coconut jelly & its syrup sweetened it quite well. I personally went to visit with a friend after stopping by Pop Churros in the same plaza and decided to order Ann S.'s drink: Almond MT w/ cheese foam (& honey boba). CHANGED. MY. WORLD. for the good or the bad, I'm not sure because I had this drink 3x this week! That's how much I loved it!! I DoorDashed from the location closest to my job mere days later. The honey boba is normally green but they add red to the mix for the holidays. I was so impressed with how chewy, seriously BOUNCY this boba was! Must've been a hot fresh batch. No indication of a hard center whatsoever. Have not enjoyed a boba experience this much in years. Kinda bummed the third drink didn't have red boba, just green. Gave in & got 32 oz for a Friday caffeine fix. It took me a while to figure out why the standard size cup says "Plenty Twentea." I only figured it out after seeing the large cup: "thirtea-two for a thirsty you" haha. I ordered drinks for some friends: taro fantasy smoothie, classic black milk tea, and avocado avalanche smoothies. Big hits! Customer service was nice, the employee even asked if there was anything else she could get for me. Nah, I'm good, thank you. *Regular boba without honey is typical black pearls. *Order & pay online for a quick pick up. Go right up to the pick up window in front of you after entering, or go left to order in store. *They offer Stevia sweetener! *I heard there's a promotion for a free prize scratcher with $30 gift card purchase. Man, I should do that. Why haven't I experienced Tastea before? Enjoy your boba! read more

I was hesitant to stop by Tastea as I wasn't sure how authentic the tea would taste. My cousins wanted some fruity boba so we made our way over to this spot. Upon entering, I was overwhelmed by all the options they offered. There was classic, jasmine, matcha, & horchata! The super nice girl at the register, Harneet, went above and beyond in helping me choose a drink by giving me recommendations on what's popular and what her favorites were. I ended up with the matcha milk tea. Hands. Down. Yummiest. Matcha. Milk. Tea!! The colorful honey boba was a fun add on and tasted delish. The fruity teas/smoothies my cousins chose were also really good; Lychee Peachee and the Yummy Gummy. Customer service was super friendly. I will definitely be back to try out other flavors! Cheers. read more

When I first tried Tastea in SJ, I didn't like them :D. My drink was way too sweet even at 50% sugar. Think I got the Bootea Shaker. Anyway, this new location shares the plaza with PopChurros, gyro shop, liquor store and Mcds is nearby too! Parking is not a problem. So, downloaded their app to get a free drink and earn points. I've tried the Lychee Peachee, Strawberry Milk Tea & Peach Me Sweet Tea so far. Love that they use real fruit in their drinks and offer Stevia options! It tastes less syrupy than other boba spots and their prices/portions are pretty good! The fruit teas taste light n refreshing. The strawberry milk tea is sweet and creamy (reminds me of in-n-out shakes but less sweet n not as thick). Just wish they offered more green tea options. Will be returning to try more from their menu. You can order in person or thru the app (select pickup time). Nice staff and they have different promos from time to time. read more

Yay, I was pretty excited to try Tastea as I've seen it on IG already, but I never got to try it whenever I was in SoCal. So for our 2nd meeting, the guy that I just started seeing chose this place for us to get boba. This place is like next to The Lazy Dog restaurant which is in this low-key plaza. This place was definitely implementing safety measures which is good. I got the lychee smoothie while he got the black milk tea. We both enjoyed our drinks during our walk at Coyote Hills afterwards. I would definitely come here again sometime soon to try their other drinks. :) read more

This review is for match thai tea and cheese foam winter melon, both are bad. Matcha thai tea is tasteless, neither matcha taste nor thai tea taste. Cheese foam winter melon is worse, their cheese foam is disgusting and it smells bad, like made by low quality cream. The cheese foam precipitated at the bottom of the drinks the minute I got it. read more

When I'd heard that Tastea came to town I honestly didn't think too much about it only because I'm more of a coffee drinker. It wasn't until my daughter in all her boba wisdom came to me one day overly excited with delight and begged me to bring her there. Didn't know that they also offered drinks like Vietnamese Iced coffee (served with the condensed milk or served as a plain iced black coffee). I was also surprised to see that they had Horchata on the menu. Something I am very eager to try soon is their very creative variation called a dirty Horchata with a shot of espresso. Hmmm... sounds like my cuppa tea. Since I found out that they'd opened earlier this I've been there 3 times already! So with that said it's safe that I'm a new fan. I most likely go back again in a few days. read more

Let me start by saying, I woke up and wanted coffee, but browsing on Yelp made me even happier because I soon realized one of my favorite boba shops had opened up nearby, Tastea!!!! Omg this made me so nostalgic as I used to go to Tastea regularly (on a weekly basis back in HS -- too many yeaaaaars ago) when I used to live in SoCal! Seeing SoCal shops expand in the Bay Area makes me extremely ecstatic! It's like a little piece of my hometown is there with me. :) Anyways, I had to get the almond milk tea at medium sweetness with honey boba for old times sake. I got a house coffee for my bf. When both drinks arrived by Door Dash, I was like a cheerful little kid on Christmas Day! The almond milk tea was just as good as I remembered it to be. It's not artificial flavoring and quite almondy. The boba was the perfect texture, a little chewy and firm, but not overly squishy. The house coffee reminded me of 7 Leaves as it had a hint of hazelnut which makes it sooo amazing! The sea salt cream just brings the drink together. I will definitely be ordering lots and lots of drinks from Tastea. Now can we just get 7 Leaves closer? :P Highly recommend this place. Their fruit smoothies do not disappoint! read more

That's Taro-fic! Back with my boba posts! Its been a while! I'm behind with my posting I've been super swamped with school. I finally tried the Wintermelon Green Milk Tea with honey boba! Ya'll where the heck have I been!!? This drink is the bomb!! It's my new favorite drink! If I ever wanted milk tea instead of the fruit tea this is my go-to! It's so refreshing and satisfying! I got mine with 50% sweetness and standard ice. I also got the Taro Milk Tea. I thought it a bit sweet, but it was my brother's drink and he enjoyed it how it was which mattered the most. It did not have the powdery texture compared to other places I've tried, but I would prefer the Wintermelon over the Taro. read more

This place is really expanding everywhere, glad to have it finally open in the east bay! There's so many drink choices from coffee to smoothies and purchase a jug (gallon) of your favorite milk tea or tea!!! Their drinks tend to be on the sweeter side (even with adjustments) for their coffee at least, but the teas/milk teas are fine. My favorite things to get here are their house special coffee and the bootea shaker tea! They have a lot of fruit and refreshing tea options which I highly recommend trying, plus some of the drinks come with fresh fruit! Make sure to download the tasty app to order ahead of time plus also earn rewards! note: if you make any ice adjustments, they'll warn you that your cup might not be filled to the top! read more

So I tried Tastea (clever name) for the first time today and I'm already hooked! My friend had previously tried this place, loved it so much that she recommended it to me as a last minute drink grab and I'm glad she did! The drinks were prepared surprisingly fast! I don't think we waited more than 5 minutes before all 4 of our drinks were ready, very impressive! The customer service was also excellent! I can't stress that enough. My friend had certain questions about some new drinks she wanted to try and they were very patient answering every question she had carefully so we greatly appreciate that! Overall, if you're in Newark or in the surrounding area and looking for a new milk tea spot, this might be your new favorite one! If I could give more than just 5 stars, I would! read more

Tastea takes over the old Subway location in the strip mall with Central Computers in Newark. I heard that Tastea was opening at this location for awhile. I was watching the progress, but with the pandemic, I figured it would be some time before it would open. To my surprise, they were going to do a Soft Opening. I got there on Opening Day around 3pm. There was a crowd outside. When I asked where the line was, I was told it was inside -- Social Distancing in place. The crowd outside were waiting for there orders. As it turned out, they stopped the line after I got in -- they were behind on processing their online orders, so they were taking care of those first. I had to wait 30-45 minutes, which gave me time to snap photos of the place where I would not have been able otherwise. Eventually, I made it to the counter and ordered my drinks (Strawberry Ecsteasy and Watermelon Heaven) and made my way outside. By that time, the crowd had vanished. My drinks were ready in under 10 minutes. The lucky folks still in line were offered free drinks from those abandoned orders (up to 20). The crowd was completely gone after that! The manager apologized for the wait. I understood -- first day kinks being worked out plus the huge turnout. The drinks were great and refreshing. I'll definitely be back -- maybe when the initial rush has died down. read more

Love coming here when craving boba or tea, it's in a small plaza across from lion and even though weird people come in and out of the smoke shop it's far enough away to not be a problem.

Second time trying this spot in NorCal and compared to all the times I've had it in OC, I'd definitely say that the consistently with Tastea is great! I enjoyed that here you can decided both the sugar and ice levels and have a lot of options for toppings! Personally I think their drinks are on the sweeter side so I order them half or less sweet. Overall, I had a good experience and the service was pretty quick. It's a nice spot to hangout at night with friends too! read more

We ordered the 20oz Lychee Peachie ($5) and the 20oz Peach Me Sweetea ($5) both with boba ($0.70 more). It took a few minutes before our drinks were ready. The Lychee Peachie was good and wasn't too sweet to me. The Peach Me Sweetea was also good. They were both similar to other Tastea locations which was good. Tastea was a good place to have a drink especially when it's hotter weather and I would recommend it. read more

I'm a new transplant and as a boba lover, I was recommended to try Tastea. I tried their Thai milk tea first and I loved it. Since then, I've tried pretty much all of their milk tea. I've only been in the Bay Area for about 3 weeks and have made this place my go-to spot for milk tea. That being said, sometimes my order is rushed and incorrect. For example, I ordered no ice but they gave me little ice. This has happened to me a few times. I guess it depends on who makes your drink. I know this is a busy place but at least get the order correct. Overall, this is one of the pricier boba places but it is worth it. When they get my drink right, the taste is amazing. read more
