Bad customer service. They make a lot of mistakes with your orders and they don't take appropriate corrective action. They messed up our order and told us to wait outside, every time we came in to check on our order they kept telling us to wait outside some more. Finally we got our drinks after about an hour. They didn't offer us a discount or any kind of reimbursement for our wasted time. I'm not coming back to tea leaf and I do not recommend this place to anyone . read more

The banh mi fries I got , the pork is so fatty I can't even chew it. Also, the pork was so burnt and hard I couldn't even bite into it. The owner, I don't know Her name, is also really rude. I won't be returning back to the business. The customer service is really bad. Only maybe one nice worker there, but I noticed also most of the nicer cashiers left. So it's still bad customer service and also bad food quality. Not a good experience. Not only that but the jalapeños are so huge and they are not sliced and small in the fries. read more

Update! Basil chicken and churros... Do it. The new furniture and decor makes you want to stay longer, so why not eat? They fry the chicken, and it's light and crispy, perfect to share. You can choose sriracha mayo or ranch if you'd like as well. The churros are cut into small pieces and you get to choose caramel or Nutella to dunk the bites into. Get them both. read more

TeaLeaf - Best. Matcha. Ever. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Gilroy, California

Ready to make our trip down to Monterey, the hubby and I decided to make a quick pit stop for boba to keep us hydrated for the long car ride. TeaLeaf looked promising enough on Yelp, but alas, it missed the mark. The establishment itself is vast and roomy, filled with an abundance of seats that sadly weren't taken up by a single guest. We were the only ones there when we entered that Saturday afternoon. Does that already spell doomsday for the business? The menu isn't typical of most boba places we've frequented, but some flavors were familiar. The hubby decided to try the Oreo S'mores smoothie while I got their classic milk tea with crystal boba. Service was a tad slow, considering we were the only customers there, and the prices were typical. I watched one of the ladies prepare the hubby's Oreo S'mores smoothie and was flabbergasted to see her use a hair dryer to "torch" the marshmallow. Honestly, with that kind of preparation, we would have rather had no marshmallow at all. Super weird! The hubby's drink was the best of the two, but by no means great. While there was an Oreo taste, it was certainly too subtle and the smoothie itself came off watery. As for my classic milk tea, it completely lacked the creaminess of a normal milk tea. Honestly, it tasted more like an overwhelmingly sweet tea, but at least the agar boba were good. Sorry TeaLeaf, but that's a hard pass from us. read more

No face diaper, no entry. make sure you check your drink before you leave. I ordered an almost $8 drink, and didn't realize it was wrong until I got home. I am a mother with another baby on the way, so after I had realized it, I wasn't in the mood to get packed up and go back to have them remake it. I called the next day and asked them to remake my drink and the owner said NO. Because apparently it has to be done the same day... I told her I had taken a photo of it and she still said no. That is ridiculous. It costs them cents to remake the drink, but they won't do it. Garbage. I won't be going back there. Make sure your customers are happy, we are the ones who help you keep your lights on and bills paid. read more

TeaLeaf - Paid for honey boba and they didn't put any. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Gilroy, California

This place DELICIOUS Vietnamese Coffee! That's what has brought me in before and has kept us coming back. Today I needed to get some work done and headed to Starbucks. It was packed and dirty! I needed some where I can get some food and plug in my laptop. That's when I remembered Tea leaf! They have the cutest decor and comfortable table settings. Hadn't tried the food before but I gave the chicken banh mi a try and I'm so glad I did. So yummy! I've found a more relaxing spot than Starbucks to get my coffee and lunch now :) read more

We came here after lunch and there was plenty of parking. The menu had a lot of options for drinks. We ordered the Jasmine Milk Tea with boba and the Classic Milk Tea with boba. There were a lot of people here eating and drinking. We waited a few minutes before we got our drinks. The Jasmine Milk Tea with boba was good and the flavor was there; however, the Classic Milk Tea with boba was just okay and actually a little sweet for black tea. Overall, I thought this place was okay for drinks. read more

Best boba tea in the city!! My fav is the Strawberry Crush! Authentic tea taste! Made the same way every time! yum!!

Had the pork banh mi and mango tango tea. Banh mi was fairly tasty, but pork was tough and dry like jerky. I like jerky but not in a bun mi. The tea was good but surprisingly sweet. read more

Ordered the popcorn chicken and it is ok only, their Banh Mi Fries is better. The chicken is dry I believe it's because they use breast meat. If they could change to chicken thigh popcorn chicken I think it will be much better! read more

I have been to tea leaf a couple of times and so far it has been good. It is now under new management, and the new owner is so sweet. She offers me samples and answers questions directly. The decor is so cute and shabby chic. Unfortunately, there isn't alot of customers but I think its due to lack of advertising. They would have been packed with people of people knew they were there. I recommend coming here if you want a sweet treat and good company. The only thing I do miss is when they could add less sugar to your drinks which they don't do anymore. The thai milk tea was still good though, and the shrimp spring rolls are so good!! My husband LOVES their Magonadas. I overheard the owner describing them as "Vietnam meets Mexico in flavors" lol So Cute. Try it out! read more

I finally found the spot to get the yummiest Taro smoothie ever. Mission accomplished, lol. Their food is really good here too. We had a Bahn Mi sandwich one grilled pork and the other chicken. Both were really good I personally will be going back for the chicken Mmm. I ordered a unsweetened black tea with boba and it was just how you want a black tea strong and flavorful. It's a must try if you live near Gilroy you The staff was very kind which just adds the cherry on the top for me. They are practicing Covid protocols. Your not able to enter the restaurant , sanitizer is provided if needed , staff is wearing masks and gloves, contactless payment is available. Also you'll order at the door where staff is behind plexiglass station you must be wearing a mask when ordering once your order is ready the staff will call your name so listen up and stay close. read more

Been following TeaLeaf on instagram for the past months and noticed how much effort their small business puts into promotion. Very impressive! It's not usual that I'm in Gilroy but I finally was in the area and got to try out TeaLeaf! My friends and I got four drinks and were delighted by each one! Their service is amazing as well. Didn't get to try their food menu but would love to try next time I'm back in the neighborhood. read more

TeaLeaf is a good spot for boba. The reason for the 4 star instead of 5 star is they aren't the quickest when it comes to getting your items. Yes they are typically busy but I've been to other spots where they are much more efficiently. The key which I've learned is to either order online or call ahead 20-30 minutes to feel like it's enough time where you can just go inside and out. Love the products they have here which they have done a good job on that and I'll always still come here. read more

Bad cashier! She was so rude and was rushing us when we ordered very quickly for a group of 6.. She also was so bad at understanding that we wanted to switch out the toppings. Unsure of her name but she was working tonight (Thursday). They close at 7PM but at 6:40PM the same girl started putting up the chairs on the tables which is fine but she did it for a table where another customer was sitting. I worked for a boba place in the past for many years and we were always told to never do that... that is very inconsiderate and rude knowing there was still 20 minutes left until they closed. Otherwise their drinks are super sweet.. I'd say go for a smoothie here. The matcha is very powdery as well. read more

I just love Tea Leaf! It's definitely my favorite local place to grab not only boba drinks, but also food too! I appreciate the assortment of boba and fruit toppings, and the Bahn Mi Fries with Pork Belly is AMAZING!! The churro bites are my kids favorite. The owner, Tina is super sweet and actively involved! read more

Employees are great here as well and are eager to make recommendations if you're unsure on what to order. They have a military discount here as well, for any of you active or reserves around here (be sure to show the cashier your military id for this discount) read more

Very impressed by how this place is run during these quarantine months! A very clean counter by the entrance with a very nice server who helped me pick a drink that's not on the menu. I mentioned I like icy drinks and she said she can ask to make a blended Thai Tea for me! It was delicious and can't wait to come regularly after things settle down! read more

Happy to see a business like this in Gilroy! Ordered the strawberry mint tea with basil seeds and two banh mis, pork and pork belly. The drink was refreshing, but the food was definitely the star. $10 a sandwich is steeper than most places in San Jose, but if you're in Gilroy and don't want to make the drive, these are worth it. Flavorful meat, crunchy bread, and a generous portion of veggies! Worth a visit for sure. read more

Everything was crafted to perfection! I would highly recommend the boba here along with their Banh Mi Fries. Tealeaf stands out compared to other boba stores because they care about the quality of their food and service. The boba had the perfect texture of slightly chewy, yet fresh. For the Banh Mi Fries they offer four different protein options and I decided to get pork belly, it was love at first sight. The fries were perfectly crispy and all the toppings just tied together, each bite was an explosion of flavor. Overall, I would definitely take another trip to Tealeaf again after an outstanding experience! The drive from San Jose was worth everything :-) read more

TeaLeaf - Banh Mi Fries , Strawberry Slushy , Taro Milk - Bubble Tea Near Me - Gilroy, California

I ordered a Strawberry Mint Tea and asked them to make it into a milk tea version. They said okay. The picture included is what I got. I don't see any sign of milk tea included. Also asked for boba toppings, they barely gave any because they ran and only scraped by. I also ordered fries. While waiting for my fries, another family behind me ordered some items. While I continued to wait, the employee, didn't call out my order loud enough (both the drink and fries) when it was ready. I managed to get my drink after a while of sitting on the counter and the family after me took my fries The workers also seemed to pay more attention to their friends that came into the store because they were constantly going out of the kitchen to talk to them rather than pay attention to making my order correctly and calling when the order is ready. 1 star, don't come here, bad customer service. read more

TeaLeaf - Asked Milk tea but this is just tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Gilroy, California

After coming up to the Bay Area to visit family I decided to pay another visit to TeaLeaf, and I'm still very impressed with the considerate service and delicious items they have on their menu. This time I was able to try out their Banh Mi Fries, popcorn chicken, Thai Tea smoothie with honey boba, and Earl Grey with Sea Salt Crema. The toppings added on to the fries are so good, so I definitely recommend trying them out. The popcorn chicken was tasty with spicy mayo and sweet and sour sauce, but personally I think it could benefit from some MSG . Both drinks were great, but the Thai smoothie hit different... for sure worth a try. Nice chew to the pearls and not too sweet. Overall this was well worth a stop, and service was wonderful with safety regulations in place. read more

Was driving around town and saw this place had an open sign. My baby cousins were so stoked to see this place open because it's been in the works for 1 year. The line wasn't long when I first got in. My baby cousins got in line but stepped outta line as I was getting a menu. They followed me and I turned pissed because they got outta line. We had to wait another 20 mins just because they got outta line. We got the matcha milk 50 perfect ice n 75 sweet with aloe Oolong tea with watermelon with strawberry bites Oolong tea 30% sweet and 25% Ice black pearls They were giving out free light bulb cups for their soft opening. Sweet. The drinks took about 20 mins to be made which is reasonable because it's their soft opening. In the oolong watermelon and matcha they forgot the toppings, but no big deal. I simply just asked them and they remade the drink. Overall love the ambiance. Will have to come back to try the other drinks and banh mi sandwiches. The space is clean and the decor was really cute. I liked the wall decor. The painting that said keep calm and banh mi On was awesome. read more

The food here is amazing! We got a grilled pork belly bánh mi and let me tell you this bánh mi was delicious! The boba was very refreshing alongside some crispy garlic fries.

TeaLeaf - Yummy grill pork sandwiches and drinks! - Bubble Tea Near Me - Gilroy, California

TeaLeaf uses organic tea & fresh fruits daily to create a product that's hand crafted to perfection. You can customize your own drinks or choose from their specialty drinks, smoothies, and coffee. What stood out to me is their selection of caffeine free specialty drinks. It's unlike any I've seen before which is what makes this joint unique. Definitely something new and different to try. *Kumquat w/ Salted Plums- My favorite hands down! It's a little sour. A little salty. Yet, very refreshing. Interesting drink. Don't let the name scare you off. *Spicy Watermelon Smoothie- If you like watermelon with tajin, you must try this! So satisfying with chunks of watermelon. It's a drink & meal all in one! :-) *Snacks- I've tried them ALL. Very tasty and worth it. The popcorn chicken, fried tofu w/ basil, and soy sauce chicken wings are my favorite. You can't go wrong with any of the choices. read more

As for food, their banh mi fries are super good, as is their popcorn chicken, which I asked about, and the freshly cut the chicken every day, so it's nice to know that they care about quality :) read more

The customer service at this place sucks ass. Waited in line on friday for like 15 mins to order. Then had to wait another 45 mins for the idiots to make 5 drinks and snacks. Had to ask multiple times for the drinks and the idiots start making them. All this while hella customers who ordered after got their drinks!!! Train ur people to make drinks faster! On top of that, the drinks were hella watered down, talk about a complete waste of time and . Fucking lame ass place, def aint coming back to shitty place read more

LOVE the food here and the fact that the teas served at this establishment are organic! YUM! I was pretty happy the workers told me that since I didn't see that listed anywhere on their menu. We got the Strawberry Green Tea, Jasmine Green Kumquat (ahahaha funny word) Salty Plum and the Spicy Watermelon Smoothie for drinks. The winner is the Jasmine Green followed by Spicy Watermelon then lastly Strawberry Green. Food wise, loved the chicken wings, garlic fries, banh mi and the churro with all that nutella and caramel. My top is of course the fried chicken!!!!! I will be back to try the popcorn chicken and their butterfly pea drink! We def went to town at TeaLeaf..... read more

I love love the Taro tea, how ever I think they put to much ice. Also the last time my son asked for a Chai milk tea, they ended up giving him a Thai tea (he hated it) he was to embarrassed to take it back. I think the staff needs to pay more attention when taking the orders read more

My first time here not impressed with their customer service. They definitely made me feel a little odd as I walked in; there was only one person waiting for their order. Minus one star for that first impression! - awkward! The stars come strictly on their food. 1. My drink which was the jasmine green tea with strawberries it tasted so refreshing and healthy! 2. Their grilled pork banh mi was to die for! Both as a combination was very rich on the palate! I'm very happy with their menu and I no longer have to drive all the way to San José to grab a good iced tea/ boba drink and a banh mi! read more

TeaLeaf - Loved it! Very Refreshing! - Bubble Tea Near Me - Gilroy, California

Yo this might be the best banh mi I've ever had and I've been eating good in SF and SJ. This thing hella good. Decided to venture out and get grilled pork from a usual chicken. Ordered no jalapeño but god damn there was a surprise in the middle. Currently my mouth and lips are on fire and it's been 15 minutes. But I ain't no bitch and finished that thing! The Thai tea may have helped. Edit: yo it might be the cucumbers that are spicy! I'm sweating. read more

Not in the menu but I asked if they can make a lemonade slushy. It is so good and refreshing in this hot Gilroy weather. Thank you guys! read more

TeaLeaf - Lemonade slushy with rainbow jelly - Bubble Tea Near Me - Gilroy, California

I really like this place and have been a regular since I discovered it a year and a half ago. Love the taro milk tea boba, sandwiches and spring rolls. Unfortunately, the last time I was there, the young woman working the register blew her nose into a Kleenex, right in front of me, then proceeded to continue serving drinks without washing her hands. In this day and age, that is entirely unacceptable. You touch your face, you wash your hands - food service 101 in 2022. I don't know how I can go back until they somehow demonstrate that their staff has been trained, and adheres to, standard food service and hygiene practices. read more
