#11 passion fruit milk tea
Vania B.

Consistently good tea, friendly staff, quick service. Always love Ten Ren Milpitas! No other notes.

Ten Ren Tea is an OG grab and go boba tea institution in the bay. They sell loose leaf tea too, some satchels, and other tea items. They are known for cheaper pricing, stronger tea taste, no frills quick service (hopefully you have an idea of what you want when you get here), and consistent chewy and flavorful boba. Their pearl drinks come with boba automatically. I wish they had some flavored drinks that had homemade purees instead of syrups (my main criticism). At least they don't overdo the syrups, so they taste pleasant and balanced enough that I don't mind the artificial flavor. Their ice teazers/blended ice drinks are quite smooth and fluffy tasting slushies! They have a list of top 10 flavors & recommendations, but I'd really just get whatever flavor you typically like. I purchased a box of their genmaicha satchels and found it to be a little less potent than I prefer, but it's definitely better than some other genmaicha brands I've tried. Ten Ren is a great consistent boba place to grab drinks at if you're in the area, and especially if you are more fond of an old school taste with good tea strength.

This used to be my go-to spot for boba and I was looking forward to come back again to redeem my birthday drink! I was surprised to find that the prices were reasonable compared to its competitors in the area. The owners were nice enough for me to bring my dog inside. I opted for the standard black milk tea with boba (light sweetness) and the tea had great tea flavor. The boba was just okay and I wish it had more sweetness to it. I would come back to again to try something else!

The store is closed from 11/24-12/09/2025!

Been coming here for years, love the standard black milk tea but it seems they use real milk (I'm lactose intolerant). There is plenty of parking as it's in a court with lots of other stores, restaurants and a Lion Supermarket. They take cash and card. FYI, came by again on 11/29/2025 and saw they posted a sign that shows they are closed 11/24-12/09.

Peach milk tea is amazing. The family owned business is always fast. Always have a great experience here. Service is fast. 9 times coming here and will come again

This place has an extensive drink menu. They are more known for their teas than the sweet frozen slushy stuff, but they do offer the frozen drinks if that's your preference. Prices are acceptable and comparable to other places that sell boba drinks. Courteous staff. Small shop located in an Asian plaza. To-go as there is no seating inside.

Terrible experience! I ordered two drinks; Large:Green tea with milk, boba + grass jelly Large: Green tea with milk, white boba (I was ordering for someone else) I paid with cash. For a total of $10.75. Paid $20. They gave me $8. It took a while to get my money back. I offered to take $.75, but they didn't even give to me. The reason is because they made a mistake after I gave them money! They didn't even show me the right order price on the cashier!! The "true total" $12. I will NOT be ordering here again. I do not, recommend this location.

Osmanthus green milk tea with boba passionfruit milk tea with boba

My friends and I have been coming to Tenren since high school and we are never disappointed. With price increases and inflation, a large milktea with boba is still $5.50 at this Tenren location, which is amazing! I got the Osmanthus milk tea with boba and it was delicious! I forgot to ask for less sweet but the drink was still really good. My friend got the passionfruit milk tea with boba, but she forgot to ask for less sweet. Her drink was so much sweeter than mine so she asked the worker to make it less sweet. The service was amazing as they were accommodating and added more tea to make the drink less sweet. When you come into the store, you order on the counter on the right side, and you pay for your order afterward. The workers are really nice and they also sell loose tea leaves at the store. This is more of a grab and go type of boba shop.

I don't know why there are so many good reviews, but honestly, this is the worst milk tea I've ever had in the Bay Area. I've been to the Ten Ren Tea in Cupertino multiple times and I really like the milk tea there, so I thought this one would be the same. I ordered White Peach Oolong milk tea and it came out a weird color that looks like diluted tea with a few drops of milk. The taste is even worse. I was expecting a hint of white peach, but it turned out that the white peach flavor was from very sweet syrup. Other than the syrup, the milk tea was almost tasteless - it didn't taste like tea nor milk. My partner ordered green milk tea with pearls and it was basically the same - diluted tea with a few drops of milk. Even worse, the pearls were tasteless and the texture was like rubber. It was a very disappointing experience at this Ten Ren Tea place.

Green Tea with Milk and Grass Jelly
Lloyd C.

Ten Ren consistently provides quality tea drinks and other non-tea offerings. Customer service is always friendly, efficient, and polite. Jasmine Milk Green Tea with Grass Jelly. You can taste the tea and the grass jelly is herbally and smooth.

Remodeled and asthesticly pleasing and relaxing with cushioned seats and tables to relax at. The restroom is in the gas station market. The service was super friendly and helpful. I wasn't sure what to get and he patiently explained some of the drinks that had banana and the type. The menu selection is quite large.

It was a decent matcha, though the matcha could definitely be stronger. Matcha cream was smooth and added extra sweetness. I also tried their large grilled pork banh mi. Decent portion, and was filled enough. Wish there was more meat spread throughout the sandwich, but otherwise, there was a decent amount of filling. The cilantro and pickled veggies tasted good, as well as their bread. However, I wish there was either more mayo or pate spread as it felt a little on the dryer side. The banh mi did take a while to come out. I got my drink fist and probably waited roughly 15-20 minutes for the banh mi. The staff were friendly! Overall not the best, but also not bad. They have a variety of coffees and matchas so I might return to try more or possibly their pandan waffle!

Everything feels intentional. The drinks are smooth, well-balanced, and clearly made with care. Whether you're getting a matcha or an espresso, the quality stands out right away. I also appreciate that they encourage bringing a reusable cup. It fits the whole vibe of the place, thoughtful, minimal, and community-oriented. The space itself is small but super inviting. It's perfect for a quiet coffee run or a relaxed catch-up. No tips expected. They bring you your craft drink. Service +! If you're looking for a full food menu, this isn't that kind of café, but if you want really well-crafted drinks in a cozy setting, this place delivers.

I personally do not like oat milk so this factor already prevented me from enjoying my drink I ordered a matcha with cream top and even though they seem to use good quality matcha, the matcha flavor itself wasn't very strong so the drink tasted very watered down I do like the concept of them being more eco-friendly but the hassle of bringing my own cup to avoid the upcharge, in addition to the slow service and oat milk only option is discouraging me from wanting to visit again
