    Teaspoon has been around for over 10 years and growing nationwide for its popular handcrafted boba tea and this is our first time that Bro and I came by on a Saturday morning. Placing an order can be done via on line or by self-service kiosk. Prices are far more reasonable which is why we chose this boba cafe Vietnamese iced coffee is what I order regular size no toppings and Bro had the caramel cream no toppings regular size both price at $6.50. One can dine-in or outdoor seating ample parking though best to come by early more so on a weekend than on a weekday. Definitely be back for sure and the best part they opened till 11 in the evening whereas alot of business are closed less traffic less shoppers.

    Teaspoon makes a consistent milk tea and other fruit tea drinks. It was easy to order online. Kiosk ordering or with the cashier. Inside and outside seating available. Maybe outside seating is from Poke House. LOL.

    I like that Teaspoon has a limed menu and what they do have, they do well. I usually order on the app ahead of time and pick up here. You also accumulate points so that's a plus. My last couple of orders have included the pineapple shine and lychee breeze. Lychee breeze is a summer seasonal drink and it's one of my favs. It's a good mix of lychee tea with watermelon juice. I love watermelon flavored drinks. So refreshing. Then I usually get the pineapple shine because it already includes a topping - osmanthus jelly. And I like pineapple. The lychee on lychee also has lychee jelly topping included in the drink. If I don't want a topping, my other favs are the guava sunset, and the ladybug. Have not had a bad drink here.

    Wish i could give 0 stars. Order the lychee on lychee and they forgot to add any sugar so the drink tasted like straight up black tea with lychee jelly. This has happened another time as well when they messed up our drink and forgot to add sugar and told us to come back tomorrow to get it fixed. Not sure how you can mess this up when we request 100% sugar.

    I came with my partner on a Sunday night and we got our drinks fairly quick. You can order at the kiosk or at the register if you're paying cash. We got the ube astra and hojicha with oat milk. The drinks were light and creamy. You can choose your sweetness and ice levels too. The ube had a great flavor and was super smooth. The hojicha was nutty and sweet. There was plenty of seating inside and it looked nice and clean inside. There's even a small claw machine where you can get tokens beside it. Haven't tried it, but it looks fun!

    Topping portion has significantly went down. Tried this location twice and both ended up in disappointment. You'd think they'd want to be more competitive with new shops opening, not the case. Drinks decent though.

    Mandan mochi donut 2/5

    I'm not sure if they get their mochi donuts from an outside provider or local shop, since I haven't seen them at every teaspoon location, but was interested to try to pandan mochi donut. It was unfortunately a let down as it tasted stale and not flavorful at all. I'm not sure if I just got a bad batch or day old. The texture didn't taste like mochi at all and I didn't get event a hint of pandan flavor. I would just stick to their drinks and not try their snacks or baked items as multiple locations I was not satisfied with the quality. Just a heads up this locations is located in a very popular Asian square with places like 99 ranch so it could get very congested and crowded.

    We got the House milk tea and Paradise lime. Both were good.The menu has a decent variety. Lots of fresh fruit drinks here. You can order in person at front or on the screen. Service was neutral. Clean on the inside. Private lot in front

    I ordered 4 DRINKS, Everything looks fine but my Drink is NOT RIGHT. I ask for Banana Matcha Royale but they only gave me ALMOND MILK ONLY WITH ICE NOTHING ELSE ON IT . I'm so disappointed with this order and this is the 1st time I encountered this.

    Came in for a quick boba fix and was satisfied with the speed of order fulfillment and variety of drinks, caffeinated and non-caffeinated! This Teaspoon shares a huge parking lot with some popular spots but there are still plenty of spots no matter the time you come. As with all Teaspoon, they also take online orders if you're looking for a quick take out. They have an app if you're looking to earn rewards with your purchases. If you choose to order in-house, they operate a couple kiosks and can also take your order at the traditional register. We ordered the black sugar assam and the silky strawberry. When placing your order, there are customizations you can make as well including ice level and toppings. Both drinks were deliciously made and matched our specifications. One suggestion for newcomers is to shake your drink to mix up the syrup first. Should you decide to hang out in the store, they have a few tables and chairs and can accommodate small groups. They also have a gender neutral bathroom for customers. The staff were friendly and quick to complete our order. Overall, the drinks were above average, service was great, and prices were reasonable. It's definitely worth visiting if you've never been and it's a good one to be a regular at if you're close by.

    Overwhelmed and understaffed? Even on a Tuesday evening a few minutes before 9pm, this place is busy busy busy, but with only 2 servers working back and forth taking orders and making drinks. I can't blame them for looking like they're overwhelmed and understaffed. My wife ordered our drinks via Uber Eats. The ETA was 8:50. I didn't get my drink until at around 9:00. As I was walking up to ask about my drink, I noticed someone else coming back because... they forgot his boba. I then walked up and saw my drinks... they forgot our boba. I brought this up and the worker took a look at the label, and proceeded to make a new one. While I do understand that they seemed to be over worked, there still is no excuse to mis-read a label on multiple drinks. That said, our Paradise Lime were well made and tasty.

    Quite a bit of seating inside! The decor is really cute and very clean inside too. It wasn't too busy when we came in to order drinks. I ordered a few drinks for family which mainly taro lover, black sugar assam, golden brew and the creamy jasmine. I think the taro lover was really smooth and the taro milk went well with the taro chunks! Sometimes places make the chunks too chunky or it's dry and crumbly, but this had more of a paste texture? Another favorite is the creamy jasmine, a nice tea taste that is prominent and not watered down by ice! Also wasn't a creamer based so this drink was also smooth and didn't leave me with a filmy texture or taste. Would definitely come back!

    What a solid boba place! We stopped by Teaspoon after getting lunch at Kura Sushi Bar. The location is quite convenient, as it is walking distance in the same plaza (vs the nearby Sharetea that is difficult to park at). This Teaspoon was similar to other locations I have been to - there is a kiosk you can order from or you can order at the register. They also have a menu with their signature drinks on the wall and handheld menus at the register. This makes ordering easy because you can easily read descriptions of the drinks! I like how they have unique, signature drinks to choose from. You can also create your own drink, which I love. They have more niche flavors like hojicha and white peach. I usually go for one of those or their creamy jasmine. I like how you can taste the floral tea flavor pretty well in their creamy jasmine. Overall, I think this is a satisfying boba place to stop by if you're in the Hostetter plaza. Quick service and good boba are great finds amongst the numerous boba places out there now.

I will say that the drinks are on the pricier side; everything her ranges from 6 to 8 dollars, even for the smaller-sizd drinks. This spot is a bit small, but it is well-lit and comfortable to sit in. It's clean and stylish inside, and orders are primarily taken through a standing tablet. It's relatively easy to find parking, even though the lot is somewhat busy, especially right after work. The drinks come out pretty quickly and taste really good, though even their "less sweet" options tend to err on the side of being too sweet. I am usually a bit suspect of matcha or hojicha served by places that mostly serve other boba drinks, but I have tried both the matcha and hojicha here, and I liked both. They don't serve food or snacks, which I don't mind! I would absolutely recommend this spot to others; it's a nice experience and their drinks (at least the ones I've tried) are solid.

While I generally like strawberries, the strawberry sauce in this drink tasted off. Not sure if it taste bad because it's near the end of the day. I noticed a sign stating that if you're not satisfied with your drink, it can be remade. So I politely asked if they could remake mine without the strawberry since that was the only issue. At first, the employee told me they couldn't remake it without strawberry, which was confusing given the posted policy. I explained again that the strawberry tasted bad and pointed out the sign. Only then did she agree to remake it. Everything else about the drink was fine, and I wouldn't have asked for a remake if the strawberry sauce hadn't tasted spoiled. The interaction just felt unnecessarily difficult and left a bad impression. It was upsetting to end my day with this kind of experience. Honestly, this place isn't my favorite to begin with--I only came because my boyfriend likes it--but after this, I probably won't be ordering anything for myself again.

I appreciated that when my drink came out a little short, the server made more so that it would fill to the top.

I can absolutely see why their products are more expensive and totally think the quality of their dessert drinks surpass Bambu or similar dessert cafes.
