    Fantastic place to grab a quick drink! My favorite part is that you can ask for 0% sweetness even on their special drinks. 0% is by far enough because the honey boba and the creme brulee foam by themselves are already sweet. I got the Ube Astra which was packed with ube and coconut, absolutely delicious. The creme brulee foam didn't integrate super well with the rest of the drink and I'd recommend just blending it in directly next time. Honey boba on the bottom was super tasty and always a fun challenge to try and snipe the last few boba off the bottom of the cup with the straw. I'm intrigued by the Black Sesame version that they also offer and might get that one the next time I am back up north in the area!

    Lid

    Wasn't aware teaspoon meant one teaspoon of tea. Ordered the peach oolong tea with house cream and was unfortunately disappointed in the lack of flavor. Aside from the mango jelly ordered along with the drink, it was practically flavorless. The lids also need some work, it easily broke after trying to pierce it with the straw. 1/5 stars

    Silky Mango
    Kasey N.

    Stopped by Teaspoon this afternoon and it hit the spot. The inside is cute,bright, clean, and perfect for grabbing a quick drink or hanging out for a bit. The staff was friendly and helped double check our order to make sure it was correct. They also have the option to order on the touch screen kiosk with snackpass and the staff will call your number when your order is ready. I got the Silky Mango, I'm obsessed. It's smooth, refreshing, and not overly sweet, just the right balance. The mix of mango with a creamy twist makes it feel almost like a dessert, but way lighter. It also comes with honey boba. It was the perfect refreshing drink for a warm day. Definitely coming back to try more drinks, but cant go wrong with the Silky Mango. There is parking around the redwood city downtown area, but the lots can get crowded. There is limited indoor seating, just a few tables so i would recommend ordering to-go. there are also a lot of restaurants nearby within walking distance so its a great drink option after a meal! They no longer serve the snow ice at this location but am hoping it might make an appearance for summer.

    Dirty Ube
    Michele T.

    Needed a caffeine pick me up, so decided to check out Teaspoon. The Dirty Ube caught my attention, and I quite enjoyed this drink. The coffee wasn't bitter, the ube flavor came through, and it wasn't too sweet.

    Matcha royal mango with oatmilk. No boba
    Lynnelle E.

    I've been to a few of their locations, and they never disappoint. It was my first time here in Redwood City, and I tried the: Matcha royal mango with oatmilk no boba- so amazing. I loved being able to see the layers, and I could definitely taste the mango. Surprisingly, the oat milk or the matcha didn't overpower the mango. The flavors were just right, and I couldn't get enough. Highly recommend if you're in the area.

    House Milk Tea with Boba
    Natasha H.

    Located in downtown Redwood City! Super cute interior with some seating, and a pretty mural decorating the outside. This location is clean, and the service is friendly. Parking is also pretty easy! I frequent Teaspoon's and their drinks are always great. Today I got the house milk tea with boba and the grasshopper. The milk tea is always good, but it was my first time trying to grasshopper (lychee green tea with cucumber juice). It was super refreshing and perfectly sweet for me at 50%. We added boba to both drinks, and the total was around $13. Drinks came out quickly, but it was not very busy for a Sunday. Would visit again!

    Not your typical boba spot. its more like a Seattle style coffe shop. The drinks are cute and many flavor options to choose from. That's about it.

    Banana milk latte with pudding
    Anna A.

    I got the seasonal Banana milk latte with pudding. They didn't have any of honeycomb crumbs which usually come with it but otherwise still very good! Pleasant banana taste that isn't overwhelming and compliments the coffee well. My husband got his usual milk tea but said it was too watery today. They aren't consistent with their milk tea.

    Pumpkin king with brown sugar crystal
    Angelica L.

    This was our go to spot for milk tea when we lived in Redwood City. It was nostalgic to return a year after we moved. The menu has expanded so we tried their new and seasonal drinks. Pumpkin King With Brown Sugar Crystals: You can really taste the pumpkin, the tea, & crystal flavors separately as they hit your taste buds at different times. It literally is a pumpkin pie in a drink form so this was quite an interesting experience. Matcha Royale With Strawberries: This definitely rivals Boba Guy's version but is sweeter for sure. There's a lot of honey and the strawberry puree is also sweeten. I would stick to their regular stable drinks since that's what they do best.

    Lychee on lychee. Super stingy with the lychee jelly, barely any there.
    Nancy C.

    Not busy on a Friday evening around 6. Cashier nice, drink didn't take too long to come out. Got a lychee on lychee. Not anywhere near enough lychee jelly, there was barely any there. See photo. Maybe Teaspoon is going downhill, my taro drink last visit (albeit to Burlingame location, not RC) was super light on taro topping. I used to like Teaspoon but I don't think I'll be back to this chain. The price is simply not worth it if they're skimping.

    You can tell its not good just by the color

    Matcha Royal is baaadddddd. Sooo sugary, does not taste like matcha at all. Just sugar and milk. I was actually confused when i got the drink like this.

    Store front

    While in the heart of RWC, we stopped by Teaspoon for some drinks. Street parking available with meters. Very cute and clean indoors. Friendly service. We ordered the taro lover. I was a bit bummed because the taro chunks were more so gritty than smooth in chunks. Will have to try a different drink next time.

    Dairy free options like almond/soy milk?

    There's an option for oat milk, which my friend selected. Side by side with another friend's milk tea, the oat milk looks more watered down and doesn't make the tea as sweet and creamy like you should want and expect.

    When will Teaspoon open in Redwood City?

    They are open now!

I wasn't sure when I'd get a chance to come back since I don't live nearby, so when I joined a book club meetup and found out it was being held here, I was so excited! I love how many different seating options they have. There are indoor and outdoor tables, a grassy area, and even swings, they really have something for everyone :) They also offer yoga classes in the outdoor area, and it looks like they regularly have different activities and events going on based on the posters they have up. As for the coffee, there's a cute little walk-up counter where you place your order, and they call your name when it's ready. The staff was really friendly, and I thought it was a great idea to have all the event and activity information displayed right by the ordering area. My latte was excellent, and I love that they offer ceramic cups if you're staying to enjoy your coffee there. I honestly loved the vibe of this place. It has such a welcoming, wholesome, community feel, and I can't wait to come back again :)

I finally had the pleasure of going here, and it wasn't too busy. The person who took my order was super nice and helpful in narrowing down items to try. Everything here is made to order, so they do recommend using the app. Especially if you are in a hurry. I ordered: 1. Vietnamese coffee with salted cream: Surprisingly, this was a little sweet to me. I do recommend sipping it, instead of drinking it through a straw to get the full flavor. 2. Croffle w/ nutella: This was crispy and chewy. The nutella gave it a messy yumminess 3. Egg, cheese, and bacon croissant: This was delicious and surprisingly it didn't have that greasy oily feeling. It is very hearty. 4. Perfect green smoothie: My co-worker loved this and found it very delicious. Perfect balance of all the items. I look forward to coming back soon and will pre-order next time.

We were able to catch up for a good while without feeling like someone needed our table or that we were overstaying our welcome here. I tried the regular size of their Iced Hojicha Latte ($7). Yum.

I've purchased a little spider plant and an alocasia polly, which have both been great. The employees are knowledgeable about plants and give great recommendations, especially regarding succulents. They also have a fun selection of cards and gifts by local artists, although some of the prices are a bit unreasonable (like $40 for a tiny planter pot). The coffee shop is fine, but less exciting. Most recently, I tried the Bicerin off their seasonal specials, which was a Cortado with Nutella. I thought the Nutella would be somewhat mixed in for sweetness, but it was literally just a teaspoon of Nutella in my drink. I've tried their Chaga Matcha in the past, and it was also just okay. Will return for the plants and ambiance!

My first time here but my girlfriend who was visiting from Texas has eaten here recently while flying through to see her brother. This place very close to SFO airport so a great place to have breakfast Brunch or Lunch before picking up or dropping off at SFO as only 12 to 15 min based on traffic. THE FOOD: Cortado 10/10, Ice Tea 9/10 Flat White 8/10 (from Australian in our foursome) Hot Chocolate 9/10 Mixed salad Amazing. Soft boiled eggs perfectly cooked and balsamic on point. They have great sourdough served with delicious jam. We also had the prosciutto fig and goat cheese which was 10/10 and our friend from Texas enjoyed her GF Sammie. Husband had the Tuna Melt which he said 9/10 only because of the bread, he said 10 if he's had it on the acme sourdough ;-) Next time... The Place: Great location with lots of parking but not this past Sunday as huge event in town but in general loads of street and lot parking near by. Quaint seating inside and outside seating on both sides of this corner location. You order inside and seating is first come first serve so I imagine depending on the time of day it could be hard for any groups over 4 Employee Interaction: Super until the last person we interacted with. You order inside and they bring stuff out as made which is just the nature of busy brunch place. For example we had food come out in staggered spurts which is what you expect so as a example our friend who ordered first (10 min before us ) got her fig Sammie first but we got half our drinks first. Our food was staggered over a 15 min period also very expected at this type of brunch place. The problem came when the lady would brought the last food item the GF item and she said hey are we missing anything and I said yes my cortado and friend who ordered 10 min before we did so half and hour ago said she never got her hot coco. She was Super polite and brought them pretty quickly . We said thanks for finding them for us and she lectured us on how busy they are etc etc and were like WHOA THERE we did not complain although my friend could have as he drink came after she had eaten and 30 min after she ordered and yet we never complained. My complaint is with this staff members attitude, and I "assume" it came from dealing with folks expecting the food or drinks to all come out at same time and thats not how these types of places work. WE GET THAT and again it would have been a 5 had we not been lectured after thanking her for hunting down our drinks ;-) Will I be back SURE the food was great
