Love this place! I've tried many of their drinks and my favorites are the Creamy Jasmine, Lady Bug, and Matcha Royal. Plus you can get crystal boba with all of them. I'm a sucker for good crystal boba! I also love that milk options include organic milk, signature dairy cream, classic lactose free cream, or oat milk. Although, take note that depending on the drink choice, some milk options are not available. Overall, excellent quality teas, fresh boba, and quick service. My go-to local sf spot! read more

This is our favorite boba place! We have had this location alone 30 times if not more! My husband and I get Boba almost every week. We almost treat it like our coffee because we love it so much! This location is definitely the smaller ones compared to all the other ones we have visited. However they are pretty fast! The parking can be difficult at times and the area at night can be a little unsafe do to the homeless but the Teaspoon always stays nice and clean and a light were they are. This is my favorite location but it definitely has one of the best service in being fast and so delicious!!!! You can't go wrong with most of there drinks! My favorite is the strawberry oolong tea, strawberry pina colada, Thai tea, cookies and cream, and there other fruit drinks are amazing! You really can't go wrong with what you get here! read more

Long over due review of teaspoon. This has turned into my go to for boba. I usually order the liquid gold, hojicha milk tea with boba, or a grasshopper with crystal boba. Each time I come here the drinks have always been consistent. I can order the same drink over and over and I will never be disappointed. The consistency is unbelievable. I'm glad that teaspoon came to Milpitas to share it's beautifully crafted boba drinks to the milpitians. Ps they have a five stars rewards program so be sure to enter your number to get the cool unlockables they have to offer. read more

They have clean fast and effective service. Silly mango is my favorite. Grapefruit garden, lady bug and paradise lime are also some Of the ones I recommend. I always order on line and by the time I reach there it's ready for me to pick up. read more

We came here for the BOGO deal (May 21-June 5) so it was a great chance to try it out. I originally tried Teaspoon at a another location but it wasn't memorable so I was willing to give it another try per a friend's recommendation. I've tried the Creamy Jasmine, Grasshopper, Liquid Gold, and Mango Mojito. They were all pretty decent and pretty fresh. The honey boba were good because it was very soft and chewy. I don't know why but the sweetness level was not on point for me, either it was too sweet or not sweet after adjusting for the sweetness on the drinks each time. However, the service here is pretty fast despite the long lines so that's a plus. Overall, come and give it a try because they have unique drinks. They have snow ice here too. read more

We were in the area and decided to give this boba tea a try. Small tea place, clean with nice wall decors. Simple menu with pictures. We ordered classic Thai tea with boba and lady bug (passion fruit green tea with kumquat juice). Boba had chewy texture. Our drinks made just right. They also have snow ice cup. Will give them a try next time. Too bad, this place didn't see any snacks. Will they could add few snacks items to their menu. read more

Gone here many times for their shaved ice since it comes in milk tea flavor:) Generally I go for milk teas however it is just decent for me here. However my go-to drink is the grasshopper, so refreshing and not too sweet even with regular sugar. Thai tea here is good but it's hard to mess up Thai tea unless they really dilute it which isn't the case here. Drinks are a bit pricier at $4.50+ but the cup is taller and thinner. If it wasn't for the grasshopper this place may just be 3 stars the awesomeness of the drink is quality. read more

Teaspoon Milpitas - Jasmine and Grasshopper - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Milpitas, California

Glad I could leave one star, because the California snow is great....-4 CUSTOMER SERVICE. So...I have been here many many many many many times with the entire family. Usually go with the California snow, and a few boba drinks. Covid-19 and all that aside. Wondering if any of these places have any customer service anymore. So there was a sign CLEAR AS DAY when I pulled up stating that they were taking phone orders, so I thought awesome, let me go to grocery outlet, and make my order on the phone while I pay for my groceries. Well my wife called, and for some reason, totally unexplained, they were not taking phone orders anymore. So I walked up to the door, and I saw a SIGN CLEAR AS DAY that said PHONE ORDERS. But again, the young African American lady (EXTREMELY RUDE) said no phone orders only online. 2-3 word, short, abrupt and rude answers. You would think during these times, some places would have some empathy, but naw, not this girl...all that mattered was Company policy this and that, TOTALLY FINE, THEN TAKE DOWN THE PHONE ORDER SIGN AND DON'T BE RUDE WHEN YOU ARE CALLED OUT. Oh and to make things even better, after I said thanks for taking down the PHONE ORDER SIGN SHE FLIPPED ME OFF, WITH customers around also. Totally classy Teaspoon. Looks like I'm a Happy Lemon shopper FOR LIFE NOW. read more

Every time I'm in the milpitas area TEASPOON is my go-to for boba. 2nd is TenRen hehe. I used to go here after lunch and there's kind of a line. Luckily, this time I went around 4ish so there was no line wait. When you order make sure to check-in on five stars!! Because my birthday was near, they sent me a BOGO Free Drink. Occasionally, they'll also send other coupons too(: However, once I went up to pay, it turned out it was buy one get one free. Although that was still a great deal, the coupon was misleading...Drinks here range from $4.50-$5.25. The downside is that none of the drinks here have toppings so if you want to add boba you'd have to add an extra 50 cents. After you order, be sure to try the samples! They always put different drinks for customers to try. Wait time was less than five minutes((: I loveee the cups they come in they're so cuteI ordered the Liquid Gold with 50% sweet. sweetness was perfect and had a strong oolong taste. Then my birth giver ordered the Early Grey MT with 25% sweet. She said the early grey wasn't strong enough :/ but the sweetness was perfect as well. i can't wait to come back next time hehe read more

Teaspoon Milpitas - Earl Grey Milk Tea with pudding(left) $5 Liquid Gold(right) $5 - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Milpitas, California

The tea at teaspoons is pretty good! I had heard about it from some friends and they raved about the tarp milk tea with the taro chucks inside. So due for this rating, we got this as well as the jasmine milk tea. I wasn't able to give it the full five stars because for a boba place I felt it should have a little more space to hang out and relax. This place didn't have to much seating, but they did have a very nice ambiance and everything. Just need to consider putting out more seats and possibly allowing people a place to hang out. read more

Teaspoon Milpitas - Taro milk tea in front. Jasmine milk tea on the left behind. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Milpitas, California

Last day for bogo grand opening. They close at 11. The wait is roughly half an hour. Can't blame the staff for being overwhelmed but I wish they switch up knowing the line is way out the door. To get bogo, show them you like and shared their link on Facebook. This is good advertisement but I feel like this wastes A LOT of time. I saw their wifi password and bogo requirement as i stepped in the doorway so I got it done quickly. However to those who are unaware of this will take longer than necessary ...which explains why it took a few customers so much extra time to place their order. They should've put the sign outside. Hojicha over Jasmine ! read more

Teaspoon Milpitas - Hojicha on the left, jasmine on the right - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Milpitas, California

This location is just like the other locations. I always get their grasshopper with lychee jelly or their creamy jasmine/liquid gold with almond pudding. The grasshopper is definitely on the sweeter side especially if you add on toppings, so get less sweetness on that and you'll be good! Their creamy jasmine is.....alright. I like my milk tea's creamy and their so called "creamy jasmine" does not deserve the title of creamy jasmine. It's more of a watered down jasmine milk tea which you can get at any other milk tea stores, cept the fact that they use real tea vs powder. Their liquid gold drink is gooooood, so i would definitely get that vs their creamy jasmine. The only downside of this place is that they have no bathrooms. It's a pretty small tea shop and has really cute and modern decorations, but it's not a place to hang out for long (unless you have a huge bladder). read more

My husband and I get Teaspoon on an almost weekly basis as part of our Saturday or Sunday routine. It's a small shop and usually pretty noisy so not really a place to hangout for a long period of time. Clean decor, cutesy quotes on the wall, and quick service. His favorite: creamy jasmine, 50% sweet, less ice, with almond pudding. My favorite: japanese rice milk tea, 50% sweet, less ice, with honey boba. You might say we're a bit obsessed because we even had them cater at our wedding in October 2017! My husband couldn't care less about the florals, photos, videography, etc... he's a man that knows what he wants, and he wanted his boba. Seriously, as soon as we were engaged, he knew he wanted Teaspoon to cater as well as which 4 specific drinks he wanted served. Amy Lai was our point of contact at Teaspoon catering and was always quick to respond to our emails. We had our 200 drink order prepackaged ahead of time, and they dropped it off quickly without a hitch right before cocktail hour as requested. Would highly recommend their catering services for large events or a visit to any of their locations to fulfill your milk tea addiction. If only we could have used our 5-star for the catering... read more

Teaspoon Milpitas - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Milpitas, California

Not from the area and truth be told we were looking for bingsoo. They no longer sell it at this establishment but the boba was good. The business is open later than most on a Sunday evening so I would definitely recommend if you're looking for a late night boba run, go here. read more

Visited this location at around 7pm on 7/10/22. I have been to many Teaspoon locations, and their drinks are great. However, this is the only Teaspoon location that serves "pre-made House Milk Tea." Where is the freshness and quality in that? The worker basically took a big plastic jug of refrigerated milk tea and poured it into the cup. Who knows how long it has been sitting in the refrigerator? What other drinks do they mass-produce? I asked the cashier if he could make the House Milk Tea fresh to order with creama just like all the other locations do, but he refused to do so. The cashier needs to learn customer service when customers ask you questions about the drinks. The hostility and the tone in your one word responses definitely shows. By the way, you should also not leave Clover Milk sitting out in the open when the weather is over 80 degrees on a hot summer day. It's a good thing there are other Teaspoon locations with better attitude and fresh to order House Milk Tea people can go to. The taste of the pre-made and mass-produced milk tea was not good. I won't be coming to this location again. read more

Teaspoon Milpitas - So many flavors to add ! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Milpitas, California

Came here and ordered Liquid Gold with honey boba (50% sweetness and less sugar). It was a bit expensive since it added up to $5.25 when I added on boba, but the cup is pretty big so that somewhat makes up for the price. The drink wasn't too watered down until towards the end and the pearls were still warm. This wouldn't be my go-to boba place since it's a bit pricey but if I'm in the area I would definitely stop by. read more

Teaspoon is expanding! There are so many of these now. This one is located in Milpitas in the same plaza as Paris Baguette and Jang Su Jang. The plaza itself looks kind of ghetto and is in need of a facelift, but there are good options here, and plenty of parking. The inside of the Teaspoon is cute and it feels a lot more spacious than the one at the Mitsuwa Plaza in San Jose. On this visit, I ordered the Liquid Gold, 75% sweet, with boba. The Liquid Gold had honey in it and I really liked it. And the boba was the perfect consistency. I like the drinks at Teaspoon - they make tasty ones, and the specialty combinations on their menu are good ones. You can also make your own custom drinks by picking your own teas and adding whatever you'd like. They also do snow ice, but I've never had it. The staff at this location are really friendly too. read more

Teaspoon Milpitas - Boba!!! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Milpitas, California

I heard about this place from some of my coworkers so I thought I'd try it out. After going through the Yelp reviews, it seems like a lot of people liked the Taro milk tea, which used to be my go-to drink during my college days, so I got that and the house milk tea. The house milk tea was on the sweet side. Note: I didn't change the sweetness levels on either of the drinks I got. The drink reminded me of the black tea from Tea Station. Now on to the taro milk tea... I'd say it lives up to its hype. It was really good, but I don't like the taro chunks. I'm not really a fan of toppings in my milk teas. I just like to enjoy the drink. Although I gave this place four stars, it's more of a 3.5. I wouldn't drive out of my way to this boba spot like I do with happy lemon (which is still my #1). read more

Wow, I was extremely impressed with the quality of drinks teaspoon has to offer. Given I only tried two of their drinks but I feel that's enough for me to say that their tea quality does not disappoint! The handcrafted honey oolong with cream and honey boba is absolutely DELICIOUS. You can really taste the oolong and I instantly knew it was high quality tea being used. I could smell and taste the roasted oolong in my drink, and the honey adds he perfect amount of sweetness. The cream was delicious! They pour the tea first and then the cream on top so you'll have to mix it yourself but it's nice to see the contrast of the two (and perfect picture opportunity!) I got 75% sweetness and that was perfect for me, but for those who don't have much of a sweet tooth I'd recommend 50% or less. I was also able to try my friend's jasmine milk tea and that was really good as well. Like I said before, you can really taste the tea and the quality is just out of this world! To be honest, the boba was just okay... kind of hard for my liking, maybe it was just an off day. Can't wait to come back and try all their other drinks! read more

You know I actually like this place, it's really good. However, I went the other day and my first sip of the Liquid Gold ended with a piece of plastic in my mouth. Maybe a piece of machinery broke somewhere but that's a bit worrying. Not sure which part of the process requires plastic moving parts but had I not sipped slowly...I probably would've ingested that piece on accident. They did replace the drink though. Also, this place does not have a/c so it isn't an ideal spot to chill at...especially on a hot day. Waiting in line can get a bit hot as well. Still, the drinks are good! read more

Teaspoon is hands down my favorite boba shop, it's always one of my first stops whenever I'm in San Jose to visit friends. All of their tea is really high quality, you can really taste the tea in the drink whereas at other places it fades behind the milk and sugar. They also have two samples (one milk tea and one iced tea) near the register that you can just pour out yourself to try. I believe their samples are always 50% sugar so don't be afraid to try it it you prefer your drinks on the less sweet side. They have a variety of teas to choose from as well as a board for their custom drinks. Personally, I fell in love with the grasshopper the first time I had it, the combination of lychee and cucumber juice is as close to perfection as tea can get. I get it almost every time I come here. The shop itself is really cute and has a lot of tea related puns on the walls. My personal favorite? "Hello, is it tea you're looking for?" In addition to the wall decor, there is a table in the back that has a blue bench to sit at and is perfect for taking pictures with your drink. If you're in the area and you're craving milk tea, do yourself the biggest favor on the planet and go to teaspoon, you're not going to regret it. read more

Teaspoon Milpitas - Grasshoppers, one with lychee jelly and one with pearls - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Milpitas, California

Teaspoon has been the best boba in the Bay Area for a long time. They have a lot of variety in their flavors, and even have snow ice and mochi donuts. It's a bit on the expensive side, but worth it for the quality. My favorite drink here is the Grasshopper, which is a combination of cucumber juice and lychee green tea. I get it with mango stars or passion fruit dolphins or lychee jelly - or some combination of all of those! Their service is excellent. During COVID, they are doing a great job of distancing and keeping the space clean. Back in pre-COVID times, it was always a friendly space to sit and grab tea with friends. Plus now they have biodegradable straws, which makes them (more) eco friendly!! read more

I got the chai tea snow and it was great! The portion size was way larger than expected and too much for any one person alone. Much better to be shared between 2-3 people. The mochi was sort of whatever, but the other toppings were good. The shaved snow melted extremely slowly so that was a big plus, granted we came on a chillier night. read more

Teaspoon has always been one of my favorite milk tea places, just because of their super friendly service and unique drink selections. My last visit, I ended up creating my own earl grey milk tea with white pearls. I love the taste of their earl grey tea; it's not overly sweet or too much tea flavor, but just right! My boyfriend ordered the turtle island, which is a passion fruit slushie with some other fruits included (kumquat?). As mentioned before, super unique flavors and it turned out to be really good! Teaspoon has a special place in my heart for milk tea and it doesn't help my wallet that there's so many locations nearby me! read more

This Teaspoon location is kind of hidden, I never would've known they were there if we hadn't been on google maps looking for the nearest boba shop! We placed an order on their square site and it said it would take 30 minutes, so we took our time driving over and waited in the car - turns out, our order was actually faster than expected and was ready for us the whole time! Teaspoon is pretty consistent in quality across locations, so our teas were as expected: the teas had good flavor and the boba had a great texture. We did notice there were quite a few people who did not order ahead and were trying to get around the tables and get closer to the register. Shout out to the staff who were super nice about instructing them to stay behind the table! read more

Teaspoon occupies the space where SWEET CUP used to be - the Vietnamese dessert place. Sad to see them go, but Teaspoon is a decent replacement. I like the boba milk teas here. I usually get the Taro Milk Tea. It's got the Taro Pudding in it, plus taro pieces. Doesn't taste artificial which is my main complaint when it comes to Milk Teas. Another thing I like about Teaspoon is I have never had to wait in a long line. It's pretty quick - in and out. I have only ordered Milk Tea here, so that's all I can speak for. They are respectable and worth a stop-by for sure. This review will be short and sweet. That's coincidentally how I like my Milk Tea. Actually, *tall* and sweet - no small sizes for Milk Tea - more is better when it comes to Milk Tea. read more

Trash! We ordered online and got the message said our order was ready, I went to pick up, but the pickup area was empty, I waited for 10 mins and still nothing. I had to ask one of their employees, and we saw they just put my order behind casher. I guess if I did not ask them, I won't get my drinks forever!!! So what's the pickup area for? Just for good looking??? And I got my drink, but it didn't seal at all. Half of the drink was spilt out all over my car. So Bad!!! read more

Teaspoon is one of my favorite places in the Bay Area. They have many places in the area which makes it perfect to grab a boba drink no matter where I am in the Bay.

I'd recommend the flavored snow over the tea. Their selection of flavored snow and uniqueness of their milk tea is what makes this place an above average establishment. The place itself is small and lines can be formed past the door. The milk teas they offer are different which catches many people's attentions. But I do have to applaud them for the flavored snow creations. Do note that the mochi on the flavored snow is what you'll see first. You'll reach the jellies, almonds, and bananas, whichever compliment is on for the snow, below most of the snow. 1. California Snow - The best choice in my opinion as it has avocados and isn't too sweet. Plus it includes almonds, condensed milk (a plus), and mochi. 2. Husky Sundae - The strawberry and banana were delicious. However, the sliced bananas are on the bottom which was a bit misleading from their menu picture. 3. Tropical Delight - Now if you really like sweets then this mango flavored snow accompanied by rainbow jelly will hit the spot. It also comes with condensed milk and mochi. read more

So don't get me wrong I LOVE teaspoon but not this location. The hostetter location is way better. This place always gives me super watered down tea. I hate that. I always get the lychee on lychee but lately it's more like lychee flavored water... even the color is super light compared to the lychee on lychee at other locations. I had the guys remake this just for it to taste the exact same. So disappointing considering the fact that I spend a lot of money here every other day. read more

There was no line upon arrival and the crew working were extremely welcoming and friendly :) I would definitely recommend this place if you're a fan of fruity drinks from Tpumps! Loved this place~ read more

Teaspoon is a really cute. I love their logo and the atmosphere. Servers are nice too. In terms of drinks, I'm unfortunately disappointed. I ordered both the taro and liquid gold options from their menu and neither were that great for me. The taro drink is nice in that it actually has real taro in it unlike many other taro drinks just made from powder. But what I didn't like was that it was really milky. It just tasted like melted ice cream and I hate melted ice cream. The liquid gold was a nice strong tea flavor and also had a strong honey flavor too but it wasn't floating my boat either. The boba was nice and soft and I like their real tea flavor but for it was expensive for a boba drink at $5 each and I really didn't like their special mixes. I'll try something else next time I'm there. read more

I've been to this teaspoon many times already and it never disappoints! It's small inside but it's very cozy and the workers there are very nice and always greet you with a smile. It's very clean inside and some of the decor on the walls are aesthetically pleasing. I usually order the jasmine green tea with no milk but I add their milk foam on top for extra. My last visit, I had the taro milk tea. I normally don't get taro milk tea because it makes my stomach feel weird afterwards but I wanted to try it out. They add taro bits into your drink which makes it 100x better! I definitely recommend their taro milk tea here, definitely one of the best I've had. PLUS my stomach was perfectly fine afterwards. They get your drinks out fast here too! So definitely a plus. It is in the same plaza as Paris Baguette. read more

Teaspoon Milpitas - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Milpitas, California

For some reason, out of all the boba places I've been to, this one tops them all. The vibe is so distinct from other tapioca spots and the drinks are super yummy. I don't think I've ever had a better tasting Taro Milk Tea, cause the one they made was BOMB. (Definitely digging the design of their cups too.) They even had tea samplers up front! Customer service was awesome, especially during the rush. They had messed up an order (not ours) and accidentally made an extra cup of that shaved ice cream which they just handed to us for free! The restaurant itself is a decent size and once you get indoors it gets super cute. They had lights everywhere and motivational quotes even on your cups. However, it's not super overpowering...I saw some kids studying there. Otherwise, it's a great spot to socialize. Love, love, love this place! I would definitely make a trip here again! read more
