I got the White Grape Oolong Tea at 50% sugar with Brown Sugar Crystal Boba. It's a bit sweet at this level but any lower and it'll be bitter. It came out within 5 minutes. It tastes like grape was in the tea mix. Brown sugar crystal boba tastes like tapioca and is a bit sweet! This place is great for late night boba cravings! There's so much parking close to 11 PM. I recommend this place if you want to get boba to go or to sit outside on the bench or tables! read more

There are plenty of boba chains in the Bay Area. What I appreciate about Teaspoon is how frequently they are updating their menu with fun, exciting options. Currently they're featuring chai drinks; I haven't seen anyone else with a Cookie Butter Chai. And even with the variety, the baseline quality is pretty high. The sugar is usually just right, and I'm satisfied with the tea & coffee. Having said this, if you have specific preferences, then Teaspoon is unlikely to be the "best" option for any one. Teaspoon have been experimenting with some snacks too. I only tried the Waffle Dipper, and it was enjoyable with the Sea Salt Foam to contrast the sweetness. I'd like to try the Bites and Mochi Donuts in the future. This particular location only has outdoor seating, but the interior is sufficient for ordering & waiting. The service is generally good too. There was one day where they had a mishap with their fridge, meaning a bunch of menu items were unavailable, but they were able to manage the situation without too much customer dissatisfaction. read more

Been a regular at this Teaspoon location recently. And I liked this store! They have some small bites as well and all items looked pretty good! Not a fan of macaroons - but you may wanna try 'em! It's conveniently located. A small store, but they have two self order kiosks and the regular cashier way as well. There's enough seats outside - about 15- 20ish people can sit. I liked their mini egg bites, they air fry the frozen item. Used paper boxes- yay! They have pizza bites and some more savory items too- haven't tried those. I like almost everything I've taken from teaspoon- not a fan of creamy jasmine tea (not really creamy) read more

Excellent boba still! There's a lot of competition for drinks & desserts these days but this is still top notch. Highly recommend

I recently ordered a traveler from Teaspoon and was disappointed with my experience. I've now ordered a traveler from Teaspoon twice, and unfortunately, both times my order was late (over 30 minutes). Despite setting a specific time for pick-up, my order was consistently delayed. This raises the question of why they bother providing a time if the order is not going to be ready. When I reached out to express my frustrations, I received an apology, but there was no effort to rectify the situation. I believe they could improve their service by being more punctual and responsive to customer concerns. read more

They have a good variety of drinks and also have seasonal / specials every now and then . read more

Relatively new location and a great spot to meet with friends. Outdoor seating and conveniently on El Camino & San Antonio. There's quality non-sweet options like their Oolong Osmanthus tea and Peach Oolong, plus all the sweeter selections that the younger set likes. Visited here after watching a movie at Cinemark Mountain View and this was a good late night spot (closes at 11p) as most other tea places were closed. read more

Overall: A // 5 stars The original teaspoon before it was a chain and they served the fluffiest of snows that tasted so amazing. Since then, it's been exciting to watch their incredible growth outside the Bay Area and keep innovating with consistently new items on their menu that are always aesthetic first; you cannot order a drink that does not look good! It is impressive that their pioneering efforts are usually a hit, and any copycats in the area always fail to live up to the original drink. I do find their prices to be at a high price point these days, but that premium is worth paying for knowing that the quality is always high, whether delivered or ordering in person. Highly recommend. (Mango on Fire: A+) - This is the best variation of the mango smoothie drink that could exist; it's undisputed. The chamoy brings such a flavorful spice that has a saline contrast to the sweet mango, a heat to contrast the icy slush, and a passionate red to beautify the yellow aesthetically. This drink is addictingly palatable, without being overly filling such as HeyTea's Mango Coconut Boom. (Coconut Coffee: B) - I love their expansion into the coffee space at the same time of when I started drinking coffee. I think the blend of coconut and coffee works well being two strong flavors that do not overpower one another. (Lychee on Lychee: B) - Beautifully simple drink consisting of black tea, lychee syrup, and lychee jelly that works well in both hot and cold form. The simplicity of this drink works well, though kind of pricey at Teaspoon's latest price point. Food: +1 Presentation: +1 Price: E Overall: Insta/Beli/Yelp/TikTok: @amei_eats read more

Solid drinks, interesting options like chai milk tea and strawberry colada, good chewy boba.

Great setup and aesthetic, very cozy and also good drinks! Personal favorite is ladybug, as the passion fruit flavor is so tangy! Would recommend and come back. read more

Came I today- ordered a drink! Waited 20 minutes and it was not ready! I don't know what kind of tea takes almost 1/2 hour. Horrible ! I will never return read more

Teaspoon's drinks aren't mind-blowing, but when you have a tea craving, they're good enough to hit the spot. Their black, green, and oolong milk teas taste proper and competently made. (Skip their Thai Tea though -- it's generic, pre-made stuff that's overly sweet.) I also like how if you dig deep into their menu, there's the option to custom-design your own tea with more obscure flavors like Earl Grey. Also, credit the Los Altos location for being the best of the Teaspoons. They have more reasonable pricing than the Palo Alto branch, they stay open the latest (11:00 PM), and just about everyone I've encountered working here in the past ten years has seemed pretty dang nice. Room for improvement: Their app is frequently turned off an hour early, or just not working. read more

We always order this special when the coffee shop at work is close. They have a lot selection. Service is okay, but we keep missing a order or straws not enough. Parking kinda tight. I just go in and out. read more

Love their Lychee on Lychee boba! I love the lychee jelly that is used. Has a nice sweetness and chewyness. Love that they allow you to customize the drink to your liking. I have my drink with zero sweetness and sometimes treat myself to extra lychee jelly! They make seasonal flavors as well. Service is fast and friendly. Easy to order on the app as well as via the various meal delivery service - doordash, Uber, GrubHub. read more

Love this place! Amazing service and great selection of teas. I highly recommend this place.

We usually come here if we are looking to charge our Tesla as there is a Tesla Supercharger station a block away behind this shopping plaza. The teas are good, with the fruit teas probably being the better options. That being said, I've lately been getting hot drinks here as the weather has been chilly, and those have been great. Pro-tip: look for the Teaspoon gift cards at Costco to get extra savings. read more

Solid boba spot and their mochi donuts are decent too. I am a fan of their taro lover drink, and I like the consistency across their locations. Service can be hit or miss but usually the wait isn't bad. read more

This is an average boba spot overall. The drinks are good and reliable, which is why I keep coming back. I have always enjoyed the passion fruit tea because it is refreshing and consistently tasty. During the summer they offered some watermelon drinks that I really liked as well. The flavors were bright and perfect for hot days. Unfortunately, the service at this location leaves a lot to be desired. It can be slow and sometimes the staff seem inattentive or distracted. That definitely takes away from the overall experience. I have been to their Palo Alto location and found the service there to be much better, which makes a big difference. If you are mainly interested in good drinks and can overlook the service, this spot works. But if you want a smoother experience, I would recommend going to the Palo Alto location instead. read more

Love teaspoon, been coming for years. Friendly service and open late. Tea is great and I like the texture of the boba.

I enjoyed the Taro lovers as it had chunks of real taro inside as well as the Crystal boba I paired with it. I've been on a tear lately switching out regular boba to either Crystal or Aiyu Jelly. Boba drink without any topping in general is just so generic- you need a sidekick topping to pair with your drink. Service was friendly and easy to order using touch pad. Come time to pay I tried inserting my debit card because I didn't know where to tap for payment but apparently it was able to read my card by tapping near the car insertion device on the side although there was no label indicating where to exactly tap your card. Some have it directly on the screen but this system did not. Nobody was around so I went outside and sat on one of their tables and enjoyed my drink. I remember passing by this place in the summertime and it can get packed really fast. Today- not so much. read more

Teaspoon Los Altos - Taro Lover with Crystal boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Los Altos, California

Happy Five Star Friday! This is one of the first Teaspoon locations I remember in the South Bay. Always consistent on quality and customer service and lots of creative flavors. It's always fun to try drinks from the seasonal menu, many which have become favorites, such as the *Dirty Ube* - coconut infused ube with organic coffee and milk. And of course they offer oat milk, which I always opt for. I do 50% sugar and less ice on this drink, but you can always customize it however you want. If you're looking for something fruity and refreshing, I highly recommend the *Guava Sunset*. It is sublime! The combination of guava, marmalade, and lemon is incredible. Definitely helps during all the heat waves. I get this drink 50% sweet, less ice. Also tasty are the the mango drinks (*Silky Mango* and *Mango Funtime* smoothie. You also can't go wrong with any of the matcha drinks such as the *Matcha Royale* or add strawberry. The *Taro Lovers* drink is also amaaaazing if you adore taro -- it's caffeine free! So a very popular choice later at night. Plenty of parking in the plaza but it can get crowded. Shoutout to Mariel on being helpful and knowledgeable every time! TIP: There's something for everyone. Let your adventurous side out and try everything. DATE TIP: Any of these beautiful tasty drinks is sure to win them over. The real test is if you can choose one that fits them best! Plus get the dairy, sugar, ice level, toppings correct and you're sure to impress. read more

All the servers were really really nice and answered all my questions in a really good way. The drinks all came out really fast even though there were many people in the store. The overall character and personality of the store was just so unique and quaint. read more

Teaspoon is great at both milk and fruit teas, and I love how they keep things interesting with unique flavors. The Lychee on Lychee is a must-try if you're as lychee-obsessed as I am. The Strawberry Matcha Royale is so refreshing, with just the right amount of sweetness to keep it light. There's no seating inside, but you'll find a few tables outside the store. The drinks come out fast, so it's easy to swing by for a quick drink. Definitely one of my go-to boba spots in the South Bay! read more

They have drinks. Those drinks are tasty. Some have caffeine, some don't. I'm thankful this location exists for my caffeinated and non-caffeinated drink needs read more

I enjoy it here. I come here a lot. The drinks are good and the service is quick. Only problem is that if you order toppings or customizations to your drink they sometimes forget and don't include them. If I am bringing drinks home, I don't realize until I am back home. I recently got a Banana matcha royale with almond milk and honey boba x2. Now that I am home. I realize my drink is without any boba and I don't think they were able to do the almond milk. The drinks are good, I would probably be careful if you are making any customizations. read more

It's been a long time since I've been here at this location. I'm giving this place two stars for a few reasons. * the boba barista gave me a defective lid for the hot Jasmine boba milk tea I ordered. It would not stay secured on the cup. The lid popped off so easily a few times and spilled in the car! * the boba barista threw so much attitude after asking her so nicely about the store hours. Customer service goes a long way, and she didn't deserve a tip after being so rude! She needs to get retrained on how to talk with customers. * the tablet doesn't seem to be updated with all of the drinks they offer. Overall, location is small but there's plenty of parking. Some outdoor seating provided, but I'd prefer going to another Teaspoon location or just another boba stop in general. read more

I really love Teaspoon. going with my friends is so fun and they have so many options to choose from. I also love their boba it's very fresh. read more

i love teaspoon. definitely recommend as best boba in the area. very fresh tea. irreplaceable taste.

This is my favorite Teaspoon location~ I unfortunately avoided Teaspoon for aa very long time as I'd visited several other locations, and did have good experiences. Am happy to report that since I tried this particular location (due to them being open a bit earlier than other tea shops.) and had a great experience I've kept coming back~ only once (out of many, many visits) did my drink not come out how I'd hoped. Some of my favorites are Guava Sunset, and Ladybug. I've enjoyed all the drinks I've tried at this location, and they often do seasonal drinks that I enjoy~ One of the last seasonal drinks was my favorite, but unfortunately it's no longer available. They also have some snacks like cookies, and chips. There is a screen you can order from as well as at cash register. They accept Apple Pay as well as cash. There's some seating outside. Great service! There's parking in a parking lot out front, and no restroom. read more

A variety of interesting drink options. I went with the creamy Jasmine, since I wanted something more simple. Tasted good but not better than any other boba shop. The line seems to fluctuate and there was only 1 person working (making drinks and taking orders at the register). When I ordered there was only 1 person in front. By the time my drink was ready there were about 8 people waiting. read more

Very fun concept with many many options. Be warned their drinks are very very sweet! The location is a little small on the inside so make sure to place your order and stand outside where there is a good amount of outdoor seating. You can either order in person or they have a tablet where you can view the different options they have and customize everything from the sweetness level to the ice level. I did have mine at the lowest level of sweetness and still too much. read more

Teaspoon has been one of my favourite chain of boba tea shops for years. Mom and I have frequented this location in Los Altos for years, but have recently noticed some of their aspects diminish in quality. Located in the Village Court Shopping Center, there is ample parking for patrons. The interior of the shop is tiny - maximum occupancy can't be more than fifteen. They do, however, have an outdoor patio with a few tables for those who want to stick around and drink. The full menu is no longer posted on the wall; only Seasonal, Classics, and Signature drinks are reflected on the digital menus on the walls. Under the Create Your Own section, in fine print, there is a line indicating, "Ask our team for the complete menu options." Weird and inefficient. To boot, they have removed some Toppings like red bean (so now Mom has scratched this place as a favourite for boba). Service could be taken up a notch as well. They take orders in batches of parties, pause, then resume. The ineffective manner creates the long line out the door. When serving the drinks, the cups are consistently wet/dirty with beverage residue that I almost always need to ask them to wipe them down. They once also totally forgot about a drink order. My favourite drinks: CREAMY JASMINE with Almond Pudding THAI TEA with Grass Jelly Roasted Oolong Milk Tea with Honey Boba and Almond Pudding MATCHA ROYAL with Honey Boba Hojicha Green Milk Tea with Grass Jelly and Almond Pudding Now that they have discontinued serving red bean as a Topping, I might need to persuade Mom to return... read more
