    A boba lover's dream come at Teapresso.
    Rebecca C.

    A boba lover's dream come at Teapresso. I got the iced Assam Milk Tea with mini boba! Milk tea is my all time favorite no matter where I go to get a boba drink. In my humble opinion, I love their milk tea than most places I've been. The Kaimuki have limited parking stalls. It's free. I think they have 3 - 4 stalls so make sure to go with a driver so the other passenger can pick up the drinks. The price ranges between $6.39 - $8.29 before tax. The store is small but it's super cute with mini instax films/photos. I wish I got to take a photo. I was in a rush to get my drink. Thank you for reading my review. Have a great weekend!

    I tried the honeydew milk tea. The boba tasted fresh and the flavor was really good! The base tea flavor (I think black tea) is also pretty strong and the drink doesn't taste like straight powder/sugar compared to other places which is exactly what I like. It's pretty chill and there is lots of seating for people and the worker was very attentive knowledgeable and kind.

    In the midst of busy Waialae is this place... Heading up Waialae just before the weird triangular intersection with McDonald's, Kaimuki Shopping Center, and Sacred Heart Teapresso Bar on the left in an older structure. With that it's super spacious inside with lots of seating which I'd have pics but friends of the staff were there as it was completely slow and empty granted but took up the banquette seating and didn't really want a pic of that besides them staring at me taking some pics was a bit annoying. Well ordering my drink I got my usual and it was made fast and efficient I was just a bit annoyed with the staff taking my order in between having the convo with their friends instead of just finishing up my order then continuing I found it quite rude. I do love the spacious decor though there were no outlet to keep your electronics charged is probably one reason it's empty versus the competitor across the street but the drink is yummy as usual and there are a few free parking stalls right beside the building...oh and don't forget the 10% off with Yelp check in! Thank you!

    Located on Waialae Avenue, it's easy to get your boba fix when you're in the area. Easy parking in the private lot. They're really quick and very friendly. Strawberry milk with boba and strawberry popping boba

    Teapresso Milk Tea

    Side of the shop offers a couple parking spaces Teapresso Milk Tea - good, a bit subtle in terms of tea and sugar level so might just take it up a notch next time with the sugar level Plenty of other drinks I want to try on the menu Kuya orders from here a lot and has nothing but positive things to say about them, so A++ customer service there Thanks for being so great to my brother Can't wait to be back !

    Vietnamese Coffee & Thai Coffee (both with no ice)
    Nicole O.

    I was given less-than-stellar customer service at a different Teapresso and wanted to try another location. Kaimuki - specifically the barista, Ha - was awesome! She mentioned that "no ice" with my Thai Coffee and Vietnamese Coffee would be at the line shown in the sample and if I was OK with that. Yes, I am good with the sample line! Both drinks met my expectations and were awesome. I really appreciate this business being upfront and meeting customer expectations (i.e. telling me coffees only come in a large & if I was still ok with purchasing it). I would definitely come back to this location the next time I'm in the area. Thanks, Ha!

    I ordered through DoorDash a Tropic Osmanthus and a Strawberry Lilikoi Organic Lemonade. It was fast and easy! When I got home, the bag was tightly tied, which makes it very difficult to get the drinks out. I get why they do it though. It's because they don't want the drinks to tip. Well, when I tried to take one of them out, the cup exploded and my drink was all over the counter and floor, instead of in my mouth! Upon further inspection, I realized that the plastic was so thin, that cracked and bursted. Not gonna lie, I was pretty upset since the drink was about $6. The drink is delicious, but you may want to invest in thicker cups as other boba tea shops have cups upon holding the drink. It gets better, the one drink I did had hair and black dirt in it. I always wonder why I'm so particular about my food and drinks that I always notice the debris in it. Now, I'm not upset, I'm kinda grossed out...

    They always make good milk tea boba but today I tried their ube latte boba and it did not disappoint! It was the right amount of sweet and creamy, and the boba was cooked just right.

    Been doing errands the whole morning (doing laundry, washing baby black, washing those dirty rags, cooking, cleaning the bathroom & scrubbing the kitchen sink). It leaves us exhausted & thirsty to the nth level. Cold water ain't enough, nor a sweaty can of ginger ale. So, we decided to treat ourselves ~ bandits on the go for some quenching! As per my throat's request, milk tea is strong but since I'm sick because my hyperacidity attacked me I need to calm down the food intake esp. SWEETS!!!!! My eyes were glued on the Signature Iced Tea Menu; HIBISCUS BLEND captured my throat! LoL. 50% sweetness level with flaxseed & no lemon on it. The best quencher for today! Never did I regret the drink! My husband is the only person who regretted not getting the drink that I got. (insert evil laugh) Customer service is fantastic. The lady (Vietnamese) who serves us is so genuine & indeed possessed Goddess Pele's Aloha spirit! Mahalo for making the drink for me. I totally love it! It was so good and I am enjoying the flaxseeds on my drink. T'was the 1st time I chose flaxseed as add-ons. Most of all, mahalo for my flabby bandit for always spoiling me esp. for treating & driving me to places. You're the best hubby! (blush face) For sure we'll be coming back! Mahalo nui loa Teapresso for opening your door for us! Keep safe!

    My son picked up some refreshments from here so can't speak to the parking or the shop but my drink was delicious! I had the brown sugar boba and LOVED it! Will definitely be back for more!
