    Matcha mango sticky rice
    Megan K.

    Great space with many tables for studying. The lychee had a good black tea flavor. The matcha mango sticky rice was really good, but the sticky rice at the bottom would be hard to drink, so I didn't have sticky rice with every bite (which was unfortunate, it would be nice if the sticky rice were in smaller pieces instead of a huge ball). Matcha flavor was decent, the mango flavor was stronger than the matcha. Overall, would come again if I was in the area.

    The typical counter to place order.

    Teaspoon is on the back side of Birch Street, next to the movie theater. The decor is cute -- love the stringed photographs as it makes the area welcoming. In a hurry, so I grabbed a matcha to stay up tonight. Good service, my matcha was good and a pretty run-of-the-mill boba setup.

    Super sweet employees, super sweet location, super sweet Photo Booth, and super sweet drinks. Not sure if there's an option to adjust sweetness like other boba places, but I wasn't offered, and my drink was so sweet it was hard to drink.

    Creamy Jasmine with Boba.

    Located in the downtown area. I love coming here if I ever am seeing a movie nearby or eating at Cha Cha's haha. PARKING: Free parking available in the nearby structure about 1-2 blocks away or 20 minute street parking. CREAMY JASMINE: Sweet jasmine green tea infused with cream. I like getting this with less ice, 75% sweetness, and boba as a topping. MATCHA ROYALE: Ceremonial matcha green tea infused with organic milk. You can get this plain matcha or add strawberries. I like getting it with strawberry. CLASSIC THAI TEA: Slow steeped thai tea topped with organic cream. I like getting this with less ice, 75% sweetness, and boba as a topping.

    Earl Grey Black Tea with honey boba
    Leanne D.

    I love my boba drinks so when I saw this place pop up in downtown Brea I had to try it! Mind you since I don't like my drinks very sweet I generally always order a fresh tea with no sugar and boba or coconut jelly. Today I ordered the Earl Grey tea, no sugar with light ice and the honey boba. The tea was good but the bobas were slightly mushy and they don't give you very much boba considering they charge $1 for the extra topping. The ambience is cute inside and the service was good. I do like their motto of " Enjoy life one teaspoon at a time". This is a good boba tea place but I just wish they gave a little more boba and it wasn't quite so mushy, in all fairness, maybe it was just an off day for their boba. Based on their service and ambience I would rate Teaspoon a 3.5.

    Phot op

    Nice Boba spot located on Birch Steet in Brea. I am not personally a fan of boba but my kiddo is. I'd personally recommend the spicy mango drink with tajin. Their matcha is good too. Best part is you can order on the kiosk and see the drink details if you want to take your time. They also have a free photo op! Download their app for discounts too.

    Drinks were really good and the young girl working the counter was super sweet. We will definitely be back.

    Creamy Jasmine
    Britney M.

    Cute boba shop located in Downtown Brea. I was wanting some boba tea after having a late lunch. This one was right down the street. Perfect! I walked in and there was a line. I guess that's a good thing, right? Lines means the boba is good I hope lol I waited for the 4 people in front of me and walked up to order. They have a sample of the day in a dish, on the counter. I wanted to try that sample of the day flavor. It was the guava and pineapple flavor. Not bad actually. I don't care for guava much. I ordered a Creamy Jasmine, and my husband ordered a Vietnamese Frapp. I liked the creamy jasmine. It was light and tasty. The drink itself is lower calorie compared to some of the others. My husband enjoyed his Frappuccino. The drinks were made pretty quick. I would come back here again. Probably order a different drink though.

    Silky Mango with Matcha foam add-on
    Michelle T.

    Came on a weekday early evening and it wasn't too busy. Parking situation is like any downtown area, either street or structure parking. Parking was free in the structure my friends and I parked at, and it was easy to find a spot as it was a weekday and it was multi-leveled. They have both ordering at the counter and through one self-order kiosk. Got the Silky Mango with matcha foam as a ~$1 add-on. They don't allow sweetness adjustment on this drink, so if you don't have a sweet tooth, just a heads up. I found it to be a little too sweet for my liking (I'm a 60-80% sweetness for boba type of person). The drink was alright on its own. It tasted a bit off and I'm thinking it might be the mango puree making it taste weird to me. I thought that the matcha foam helped it though and was nicely made. For the price, I personally wouldn't get this drink again. Overall, I don't think that this is the shop for me. Service seems nice though, parking is average, and there's a variety of drinks available. Quality and price of the drinks just wasn't for me.

    Ube Vietnamese Coffee
    Charmaine P.

    Glad I came back to try this place again. Really enjoyed the ube Vietnamese drink as well as the Taro Lover. Friendly service and pleasant atmosphere. Will return to try the limited Cupid's Kiss

    Guava Sunset
    Karissa L.

    The service was great from the second i walked in the young lady working was super sweet and recommended a few drinks because i was confused on what to get ! Very affordable! I thought the place was super cute ... i love the little photo machine they have when you pick up your drink you can take your picture and put it on the wall with all the others! That was the best part to me honestly i like places that have their own little thing to remember the place by! Fun atmosphere, id def come back again!

    matcha flight
    Anna W.

    I like how late Teaspoon stays open, so I usually come here to hang out with friends. They currently have a promotional matcha flight, and it was delicious. It consists of banana matcha, double matcha, ube matcha, and sea salt matcha. The service is good, and they even have a small picture taking machine near the drinks pick up counter. The interior is nice and cozy, with a few tables and seats available.

    Hojicha tea ($6 + $1 matcha foam)
    Megan L.

    Good location next to a free parking garage. Horrible WiFi, so wouldn't come here to work. + Hojicha tea ($6 + $1 matcha foam; less sweet): birthday discount so $6 off was a good deal, hojicha just tasted like green tea, couldn't really taste hojicha flavor but matcha foam was delicious, both sweet and strong (7/10)

The bread is soft, the garlic flavor is just right, and the cream cheese filling brings everything together perfectly. Their coffee drinks are also consistently good. My personal favorite is the Smokin' Spaniard, probably because I'm a sucker for anything made with condensed milk. It's rich, smooth, and just sweet enough without being over the top. On a recent visit, I decided to try their new Pineapple Express. It was a hot day, and I was in the mood for something fruity and refreshing without any caffeine. It was decent - light and refreshing, though it didn't quite stand out as much as their coffee drinks for me. Overall, this is still one of my favorite bakeries and coffee spots. Between the delicious pastries, solid drinks, and cozy atmosphere, it's a place I find myself returning to again and again.

The staff was incredibly patient and actually took the time to understand what we were looking for.
