One of the worse locations for heytea. The wait isn't too bad if you order in person, but big tip…read morewould always be to order ahead on the app! The drinks here are a little less quality in comparison to the norm for heytea- not sure what goes wrong for this place to not be consistent with the other stores. Personal favorites are the triple matcha, mango boom, or their guava drinks! Drinks are strong in flavor without being too sweet. Also the SMELL?? No it's not the perfume or scents that heytea normally uses- it smells like straight sewage. Again, the only store to smell like that so it just further reinforces my feelings about this one being the worst heytea location :/

Tried their osmanthus cloud latte today, and it tastes like their other osmanthus rice drink... I…read morepersonally don't care for the rice so I wanted to try their other osmanthus drink because it's one of my favorite milk teas. I didn't like it because it's overly floral and it has the rice. Maybe I misread about the rice? But even so, the drink doesn't taste like a cloud latte. I got 50% sweetness and it tastes more like 75%. I think it's because the fermented rice is already sweetened. Service was good, I ordered ahead and picked up with no issues. The inside has some seating if you want to enjoy your drink inside. Outside, there are also some tables and benches if you prefer. Overall, the drink prices are pretty standard in today's market I'd say. The other drinks I've tried before include the osmanthus rice drink, black sesame slushy, mango pomelo, and the taro milk. Of the ones I have tried, maybe only the mango pomelo one is good. The rest are just okay. Unsure if I'd come back because there are other mango pomelo drinks out there that are better.

Server was kind, helpful, and patient (as we were trying to decide what to order) Lots of drink choices and love they have BOGO specials. The names of their drinks are creative and so interesting makes me want to try them all. The drinks we ordered hit the spot, they were good just nothing spectacular. The highlight were the Black Sesame Umeyaki. The outside was crispy and inside was soft and so yummy with the black sesame. It comes in box of 4. The Portuguese egg tarts were delish as well. I will definitely come back and need to get their BOGO deals.

They have some tables but not enough for a place to hangout to be honest. Their whole concept is pretty much a open kitchen, order and walk to the back and wait for your order. Can get pretty cramped but that's just how their shop is designed. Parking - Free in a one way outdoor lot. If it's full, there's the plaza right next door and/or street parking, plenty overall. Their menu is quite extensive, from teas, boba, coffee, fruit teas, they've got it all. For first timers, they have a signature section which I think is basically their most popular drinks, they're all recommended to try. My wife and I ordered the Oreo Matcha Brulee and the Uji Matcha Latte to share, both came out pretty quickly, around 5 minutes or so. I'm a huge sucker for oreo matcha brulee type drinks and this place made it perfectly. Each sip is full of the ingredients, very refreshing, and perfect sweetness in my opinion with 30% - 60% sugar level. Overall, great tea shop, it's pretty ironic to find a place that's just called "The Tea" which can be hard to search up, but their drinks are high quality, staff is quick, and their shop is clean. Very impressed.

Tea Brick!

While the shop is pretty small, it's more ideal for a grab and go type of shop rather than a hangout spot. Although they do have some small tables and bench seating. Free street parking + parking lot in the back, underground parking as well along with free Wi-Fi in the shop. Staff here is pretty mixed. While they're friendly, they seem a bit slow at times. They can take up to 10-15 minutes per order even if there's not much customers, not sure what the exact process is but sometimes they're fast but sometimes slow, could be just a off chance experience. Most pictures you see from Tea Brick are their amazing and unique bottle designs, which you can pay a tad bit extra to get the bottle with your drink rather than the standard cups. I'd say it's pretty worth it considering it's not too much of a expensive and it's definitely worth the social media posts. It's very cute and they have plenty of designs from time to time. As a dog owner, I love their designs. They can be reusable in a sense even though there's a hole for your straw that you can't seal yourself. As for the drinks, they're not the best but not the worse either. They can be refreshing at times especially on a warmer day. Overall, a decent experience, more of a experience to get their cute bottle cups rather than the drinks. Regardless, happy overall with their decent quality drinks and their amazing cup designs.
