    Thai Tea w/ Grass Jelly
    Mai W.

    This used to be my favorite boba spot in Carlsbad. Unfortunately now, drinks are just subpar. It's become more of a place my kids wants to come for the dopamine hits of the claw machine. It's actually super frustrating that drinks that "come with boba" you can't just sub it out for another topping. I literally had to fight with the cashier that I wanted grass jelly instead of boba with my Thai tea and she still wanted to charge me an extra $1 for the change. It's A SUBSTITUTION. I hope they get back to figuring out better drinks instead of robbing my kids with their claw machines!!!!

    Great spot for some boba in Carlsbad! Lots of fruit options and fun specials as well. There's rarely a line so drinks come out pretty fast too

    i've been here a few times and i will say that the tea drinks don't really have a strong tea flavor but are still good. The coffees however are amazing and strong.

    Osmanthus Oolong Tea w/ Honey Boba & Brown Sugar Crystal Boba
    Alyssa N.

    Stopped by on a Thursday afternoon and the shop was pretty empty but there's sufficient seating for those who want to hangout after work or school. Ordered an osmanthus milk tea with brown sugar boba and crystal jelly and it was pretty decent. I will say, the boba had a bit of a sour aftertaste (i noticed it when I was driving so didn't bother going back). I wouldn't say that it's from the boba going bad but I'd recommend the shop to test with different types of honey/syrups. Some react oddly to the starch of the boba and creates a sour taste. (Experienced this with a few shops before so it's not a major alarming thing for me, though I could see why other customers might flag this). Consistency of the pearls was good at least. The tea itself was floral, not too strong so for a younger audience, this is good. Service was good and employees were nice and kept the place clean. I'm a little neutral on the shop, so idk if I'd come back or not. Tbd. Overall rating: Food: 7/10 Service: 10/10 Menu: 10/10 Restaurant Vibes: 10/10 Price to Overall Dining (POD): 8/10 Update: The shop clarified that this is the natural taste from a boba brand they use. It makes sense and it's probably why other shops have the same boba after taste. I appreciate the information :)

    Amazing boba and amazing service! Heaven and Haley are the best!!

    Absolutely LOVE this boba shop!! The drinks are so good, the ambience is really nice, and the service is amazing. Heaven and Haley are the sweetest and make the whole experience even better. Definitely recommend coming here for some really good boba!

    Double Matcha with oat milk
    Grace C.

    Teaspoon is a solid spot to get boba. Their drinks are refreshing and unique. I was excited when they announced that they would have their double matcha so I had to try it. I got it with oat milk and 25% sweet. It was a solid 3.5/5. It was on the sweeter side and the matcha flavor was not as strong as I'd like it to be. It's definitely better than a Starbucks or Better buzzed matcha but not something I would go out of my way for. Service was great and our drinks came out pretty quick. Update: Teaspoon reached out to me and let me know that I could have adjusted the matcha pour and made it stronger. That would have definitely improved the drink and make it a 5/5. I recommend trying the double matcha and requesting a heavy pour of matcha. Once again service was great and I'll definitely have to try this new adjustment!

    I came in after dinner to relax with friends, the atmosphere was very welcoming with board games to play and nonrigged claw machines. I was able to win 2 prizes for 10 dollars. The drinks themself were very refreshing and accurate especially since I make alot of modifications next time I come back to san diego I'm coming here to unwind!

    I love their taro drink, which is non-dairy. It has the perfect consistency and sweetness. I enjoyed having the taro bits in there, but they tend to clog the straw. Service was friendly and efficient, but it's not particularly noteworthy.

    Left: Liquid Gold Right: Classic Thai Tea
    Kaitlyn W.

    Teaspoon is one my go-tos for boba and always has the strong tea flavor that I look for in my milk tea. The liquid gold drink was very creamy and refreshing, and also had the perfect sweetness. The classic thai tea was also very good and came with boba, which was average if I'm being honest. I loved the ambience inside Teaspoon. There were many tables for people to sit and sip their drinks while doing work. Would definitely recommend and will be coming back for more!

    Jasmine green tea with boba
    Christopher S.

    Nice spot for boba. Very nice service and clean. Ordered jasmine green tea with boba, light ice, 50% sweet. Tea was good, ice was light, and not too sweet, but also kinda light on the boba. For the volume or drink I'd expect a little more boba. The boba was good and consistent though still.

    Location is easy to find. We are not locals and just happen to be in the area. I like how their drinks are not very sweet and their portions are bigger. They look very nice on camera. Wait isn't very long and the girls making the drinks are nice and friendly. For a small store, they have a lot of tables and seats provided. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because of the price. They are on the pricier side. Overall, I will come back again if we are ever back in the area.

    Came here for Sunday breakfast and had such a good experience! We got here around 9am and…read moresurprisingly had no wait. The seating was spacious and comfortable, and the service was great throughout. We tried the goat cheese & spinach quiche, summer salad, crème brûlée, and lemon meringue tart. The quiche was probably my favorite savory item -- super thick and fluffy with a generous piece of goat cheese on top, and the roasted potatoes on the side were really good too. The summer salad was fresh and loaded with smoked salmon, avocado, mango, and pistachios. Definitely save room for dessert. The crème brûlée had that perfect crunchy caramelized top, and the lemon meringue tart was really cute and had a nice balance of tart and sweet. I love the wide variety pastry selection and how pretty everything looks in the display case. Overall, a really nice breakfast spot -- good food, lots of space, great service, and no crazy Sunday morning wait when we went

We stood in line to get in for about 10 minutes-it's definitely a busy place and probably could get busier! Service was good, but again they were busy...food was great! This was our first time here and we didn't get to try the pastries, but they look very promising. I am always on the hunt for the best pastries around because after visiting Europe and having pastries there, nothing here in the US compares!

We have ordered a few different lattes from the menu and we can't choose the favorite one, because they are all delicious. We recommend: Hazelnut divinity Latte and Honey Latte- it's a MUST TRY! It's a perfect blend of flavors , not too sweet and not too bitter either. They roast their beans to perfection in a small batches and I think that is a secret recipe to get that perfect coffee! We have also tried their food : Bacon Ciabatta sandwich. The food was delicious, fresh and a ciabatta bread was soft. Highly recommend it!!! The shop is not that big inside and it can get quite busy with long lines . But surprisingly we did not wait too long and the staff were fantastic and they were quick and efficient. The outside seating area is a very nice place to sit and enjoy your latte in a beautiful Encinitas weather. Overall: it's a cute little coffee shop, the staff were very friendly and welcoming and their lattes are just pure perfection!!! Can't wait to go back!!!
