    Mango Slush Smoothie / Bamboo Oolong Tea / Americano
    Kendra K.

    The drinks are always so refreshing! From the fruit teas with lots of flavor to bold coffee drinks, we are never disappointed. The kids love the fruit slushies & boba! Baristas are always so friendly and quickly make the drinks. Plenty of indoor seating and even a space you can close off for a meeting.

    Oolong Green Tea + cheese foam + taro balls
    Katrina M.

    Of the seemingly hundreds of boba spots in Katy Asia Town, this one is my favorite! My usual order is the Wintermelon Alpine Green Tea with cheese foam and boba. The sweetness of the drink is consistently perfect at half percentage, and the boba usually always has the perfect chew without being too soft. And the main reason I pick Tea Top over its hundreds of boba neighbors is the fact that they have absolutely perfected their cheese foam recipe. It has the thick texture and slight salty-savoriness that I love adding to sweet drinks, so if you're into that kind of thing, you're going to love this. The service here is also always great. Last night I opted to try their Oolong Tea with cheese foam and taro balls because I was craving the same order I'd had from another boba shop out of town. It's not listed on the menu, but this is the only boba place that offers taro balls here (as far as I know - let me know if you know otherwise!). I walked in 30 minutes to close and asked if they had taro balls, and they were about to finish brewing up a fresh batch. The fact that they were still brewing up fresh ingredients so close to the end of the night - on a MONDAY - just felt so above and beyond. It's a bit of a drive for me to get here, but for all these reasons, I'll happily make the trip. - Drinks: 5/5 - Toppings: 4.5/5 - Service: 5/5

    Taro Milk Tea, Passion Fruit Green Tea, Milk Tea with Grass Jelly
    Fiona L.

    I really enjoyed the bubble tea here! My family and I ordered Passion Fruit Green Tea, Taro Milk Tea and Milk Tea with Grass Jelly. They were all very good! I like that they make the milk teas with non dairy, lactose free creamer powder as it tasted very similar to the Vitasoy soy milk I had as a kid! Also really liked the big globs of grass jelly that was in the drink versus other places which has small lego size grass jMy husband also liked that they use real taro blended into chunks instead of the powder. Overall the staff were very friendly and informative! The vibe in there was very industrial like with cute window seating perfect for couples or hanging out with your bestie!

    Really fast and very very clean. The stuff is pretty friendly. Boba is really good. Passion fruit green tea is good too.

    Sitting at a different table today and I noticed that they have the best charging outlet by far from all boba shops I've been to. Just like coworking Spaces at Lifetime Work! Except....better cuz they've got the off the menu Rose Milk tea that I get at 30% sugar (so I can drink multiples in one sitting!). I love agar boba it's super chewy and taste great. Rose suggested the Rose milk tea a few weeks ago and I'm totally addicted to it! Will be burning off all the sugar on the pickleball courts though so I can drink more of these delicious liquidy goodness!

    Quick service, delicious boba, excellent ambiance with plenty of seating. Pricing is not too bad. One of the best bubble tea spot in Katy Asian Town. Avoid the Fresh Milk Trifecta if you are not a sweets person.

    Passion Fruit Green Tea with Cheese Foam
    Melodi D.

    Had a good experience at Tea Top! The menu has a large variety of drinks and everything is very customizable. The person taking my order was super helpful in helping me figure out what to order. I eventually got the Passionfruit Green Tea with Cheese Foam. I thought it was good, but not spectacular. I think the cheese foam was a little too cheesy; I may have preferred the milk foam. We also asked for a water cup at one point and they really went above and beyond--putting water in a boba cup and sealing it with a lid! Thought it was worth a mention. :)

    Came here with a friend, and I ordered the strawberry matcha latte, which was a bit tooooo sweet. Next time, I'd probably opt for a lower sugar level. After maybe 10 or so minutes passed, one of the employees came to our table and said there was a problem with the milk they used in my drink so they took it from me and said they'd make me a new one... thought that was kinda sus, but I'm not having any issues w my digestive system, so we good. I signed up for their rewards program and got 10% off on the spot which was nice! Employees are kind, and overall vibes of the place are good. Parking is gonna be a hit or miss depending on when you go.

    The place is nice and clean. The drinks at tea top are consistently good and I appreciate that they have hot options as well! And even the hot drinks are the perfect temperature, not too much that it burned when I got it. The sago was mildly overcooked but otherwise good. The service was great though. They gave us the wrong drink but gave us a tea to make it up.

    Great place to get boba! I love that they have a self serve ordering system. Their menu was huge! We got the matcha strawberry and it was pretty good! The strawberry jam was one of the better ones I've had. The matcha was a bit light/watered down than I would liked but overall good drink! Lovely seating area too!

    There are a plethora of milk tea places to fuel our addiction to sugars here in Katy Asia. But if you must - this place is the best. Taro with Sago, order light ice. NO SUGAR. YES it is sweet enough with the TARO. You can feel /taste the real TARO root with those mini SLIMY SAGO balls . Add some GRASSY jelly to make it interesting. Inside clean and neat, including the bathrooms. Staff here are very helpful so you don't overdose on that glucose. Brought my friends here . They were ALL SATISFIED with their choices.

    Fresh taro balls!
    Thao N.

    1. Made in-house taro balls 2. Foam top: choose regular milk or cheese How Tea Top differs from other boba shops. The taro balls/boba has a extra chewy dense texture that I really enjoyed. The foam top! I've always only seen cheese foam but here they also offer non-cheese flavor. The milk/regular foam has a very strong milk flavor but its not tangy like your typical cheese foam. I got the winter melon alpine green tea. I like how the green tea cuts the sweetness of wintermelon. Katy Asian Town has at least 6 boba shops in the plaza. It's hard to choose which one.

This is a great place to come study or do work on your computer. Some tables have outlets too. The service was good. No complaints. I came here because I heard their matcha is good. Each matcha is $8.5. They claim to use ceremonial grade matcha but under the matcha latte list, there is only one drink labeled CG (ceremonial grade) while others do not. The CG is the basic and they use agave for sweetening. They also don't hand mix per cup. It is pre-batched. I'm not a pre-batch hater although I do prefer each cup to be hand mixed, so I will give it a chance if it tastes good. The CG latte was surprisingly smooth and pretty good! Not bitter at all imo, but it was slightly grainy. They used the perfect amount of agave to balance. It wasn't sweet either. Just perfect balanced flavor for a regular CG matcha latte. The other matcha latte I ordered was the banana. It is SO GOOD! A lot grainier than the CG, though. But I would definitely order that again if I come to Katy. It has a cinnamon flavor in it (probably why it felt grainier than CG) and mixed with the banana flavor was just very yummy. Highly recommend!

Wow so good! Even at 50% the milk tea was not too sweet so I might could have went up to maybe 75% or they do have the option to use a sugar free substitute.

    After making their hyped debut nearly 2 years ago, Wanpo Tea Shop has remained one of my favorite…read morestops in Katy Asian Town (KAT). Their line of beverages have hit the spot in a way where I can laud them for their consistency in both customer service and selection of drinks. Their selection of drinks are broken down in milk tea, fruit tea, latte, "pure" tea, traditional, and cheese. Toppings include aiyu, grass, red bean, tapioca, pearl, and combined boba with sugar level adjustments. The standouts in each section for me are as follows: (pure) jinxuan oolong, kumquat lemon tea (fruit), winter melon lemonade (traditional), yamamasa koyamaen's matcha (latte), and their regular wanpo milk tea. If I'm feeling really indulgent, I'll get a cheese cream oreo but that's a rare occasion. They've done a good job of opening up the interior space and the layout is ideal for groups and solo action. This is likely to accommodate lines (if any) throughout the week. The illuminated tea areas is a nice decorative touch, There are some table + board games and the place is really pretty during the daytime when the natural light kicks in. WiFi is also on point. The staff is young, friendly, and mostly bilingual in Mandarin + English. Prices are the standard $5-7 per drink, and parking is always abundant in this part of KAT. Given Wanpo's Taiwanese roots and celebrated global brand, it only legitimizes (and further saturates) the greater Houston tea scene.

    I had a very...weird experience at Wanpo. I ordered a Sugarcane Lemonade and when I tasted it, it…read moredidn't taste like Sugarcane, just straight lemon. Wanting to give Wanpo the benefit of the doubt, I asked if it could be remade because it was a $8 drink. The worker, whose name I believe is Eric, SNIFFED my drink through the straw and said that it's Sugarcane and gave it back to me.....He then said he wouldn't remake it because it smells like it...Huh..? I walked out in shock because, what? Out of all the boba spots that I have been to, never has anyone smelled my drink. In fact, I used to work at a boba shop and never has it occurred to me to smell a drink and not remake it for a customer. Like, I don't know what methods you use to confirm ingredients but you couldn't even take the drink to the back to smell it? You did it in front of my face? I don't ever ask for drinks to be remade unless it tastes nothing like I ordered, I just go about and let it be but this genuinely appalled me. I go to Wanpo and I enjoy their Mango Sago drink but this experience has led me to never come back because... are you serious?

I like what I like, just as others like what they like. So I wasn't sure what I was going to get stuck with. So on the way to the outskirts of Katy, we stopped in at Ding Tea. Let me tell you how busy this area was on a beautiful Sunday before lunar New Year. There wasn't a single parking space to be had in three different lots. There was traffic everywhere in people. Do not drive well when they're looking for a parking spot. People just stopped in the middle of the parking lot and didn't move. Waiting for someone to walk out of a building. Super annoying. Luckily, Ding Tea is located behind lot of the larger restaurants and the golf course and other super busy areas. There was a parking spot waiting for me out front and it was easy to get in and out. We ended up getting a tea to share, and two to go with us to the party. We also got an order of the popcorn chicken. I wish they would have it a little bit spicier on its own, without having to dip it into things. A little seasoning goes a long way! The staff were also super nowledgeable about the menu, courteous, and efficient. Will definitely be back, but not on lunar new year. So busy!!
