    I'm not a matcha connoisseur, I just started getting into it recently. I like a matcha that's thick, creamy, and has a strong earthy taste and tomo tea house delivered. I got the strawberry Matcha and it was delicious. At first it wasn't that sweet, but the more you mix the drink together it becomes sweeter. If you are someone who likes a very sweet drink, you might want to ask them to make it extra sweet for you. They also have Vietnamese coffee and mochi donuts which I didn't get to try, but I'll be back to try it the ambience is also very kid friendly, they have a soft play area so it's great if you have a little ones. The place is also various aesthetically pleasing.

    The play area

    Did a mommy and daughter play date with my girlfriend at Tomo Tea House and we had the best time!! I ordered the Assam black milk tea at 50% sweetness with lite brown sugar boba. To be honest, I came in with low expectations (due to the reviews being hit or miss) but I was pleasantly surprised with my drink. I enjoyed the tea flavor and appreciated that the drink was not overly milky. Also, the boba had a good chewy consistency to it too. I got to try my friend's mochi donut and mochi corn dog and both were pretty good too. The play area, which is no extra charge, was the best for our 2 year old and 3 year old daughters. You just have to sign a waiver before allowing them to enter. Socks are required. They have a ball pit, climbing structures, slide, and bouncy animals. Our girls were able to independently play and have so much fun running around together. We hung out for around two hours! However, my daughter ended up getting sick and got mommy and daddy sick too :( I had a great experience, but we had to pay the price afterwards, so be mindful with your little ones!

    Egg coffee and milk tea

    ===TL;DR=== - Egg coffee - Roasted oolong milk tea - Dubai croffle ===TMI=== Hmmmm, two word: very pink. Although I'm not a fan of pink, this will be a pink persons heaven. Pink walls, chairs, floral photo walls and a swing chair?? Literally for all the props for a photoshoot, a very girly and pink one. Talk about convenience.. make your order on one of the 3 touch screens on the wall. Waited for some time for our order but it's ok because you get distracted by all the decors. In terms of my order, both the egg coffee and the milk tea were really sweet. I think it was one of the sweetest egg coffee I've had. It'll be best if the coffee taste was stronger. I think the drinks were average, just a cute instagram friendly place. Dessert wise, the Dubai croffle was good. I thought it would be warmer so it gets flakier. It was a bit hard to cut through since it wasn't warm enough. Also super sweet. If you have a sweet tooth, this place is for you. As I was enjoying my snack, I noticed many kids were in the indoor playground area. I think this would be a great place for playdates where the kids can have a blast and the parents can get their caffeine or sweets fix. Win win. P.S. some chairs are on the wobbly end so be careful when you sit on those pink chairs.

    Decor!

    Came by here with a couple of co-workers today as we waited for Mintleaf to open up at 11:30 am. There was plenty of seating available (both inside and out) and the lot has a ton of parking spots. There wasn't a line and I got my drink very quickly! They also had some good deals, including getting a mochi doughnut for just $1 with a purchase of a drink on Tuesdays (how lucky of me to end up here on a Tuesday!). The decor is beautiful! So many places to take pictures. I was looking for a hot drink, but it really is a boba spot, so I went with the classic jasmine milk tea with boba, very light ice, and 25% sugar. Also grabbed a strawberry funnel cake mochi doughnut for my co-workers. The mochi doughnut was very good and the milk tea was standard. Next time I'll pick something a little extra to figure out HOW good the drinks really are! I have high hopes :)

    Tomo used to be Bober and the interior is basically the same since it was Bober. This place is an introverts dream, I placed my order through the kiosk and because it was a Tuesday I was able to add a mochi donut to my each one of my drink orders. I ordered a strawberries & cream smoothie with a strawberry donut, strawberry matcha latte with a churro donut, mango sago with a churro donut, mochi corn dog with half dog and half cheese, and the Dubai chocolate croffle. My total came out to be $45.74. And a note, if you select email receipt, you'll have to click your order number for it to show you the itemized list! For someone who has never had Dubai chocolate, I loved the croffle. I didn't want something super heavy and for $10 I thought it was worth it. The mango sago didn't have any flavor at all. I actually loved the mochi corn dog, its a different texture compared to a Korean hot dog. Mochi donuts were good, I always love that their not too sweet, very light. I wish I had a picture of all 3 drinks but I thought it was funny and strange that they came in all 3 different sizes and cups.

    I ordered online and everything was ready within 10 minutes - very efficient. I got 3 drinks and the dubai chocolate strawberries. The drinks were decent - the coconut sugarcane mostly tasted like coconut water though. Was hoping for more of the sugarcane taste. The dubai chocolate seemed old though. The kanafeh was soggy... and I've made it at home before and left it on the counter overnight and it was still crispy. So this one must've been DAYS old, or they didn't toast it properly? On tuesdays you can get $1 mochidonuts, so I also picked up 2 of those. Overall it was an okay experience.

    WHEN: Sun @2pm Decided to come here instead of any other cafe to work in because I decided to meet up with my sis and her lil ones and they have a play area for them. I've been here before when it was under new management, so I sort of had an idea on what to expect, and the kids loved it, and we enjoyed the drinks. Seems to be about the same, with maybe less wall decor and more dessert options. There's still mochi, but sadly no more of the Pandan Mung Bean drink I really loved. That's okay. It was quite busy but I came early enough to snag a table otherwise this place is packed with mom's and their kids going on play dates. It was already a rainy day so I can see how a place like this would be busy. You can order 2 ways: at their kiosk through a digital device near the entrance or at the counter with a breathing human staff member. Here's what my sister I ordered: HONEYDEW MILK TEA - $7.35 Fragrant floral notes of jasmine milk tea infused with light and refreshing honeydew melon. 50% sweetness is plenty and this was a nice sweet drink. PANDAN CLOUD - $6.80 Refreshing organic coconut water topped with a creamy housemade pandan cloud foam. Totally did not look like the menu photo but that's okay. I"m just concerned at how green it is haha especially compared to the honeydew milk tea. All in all I really like it here. Even if there's no seating inside, there are a few outside. The location allows there to be plenty of free parking, and there is WiFi. So I can't complain about the prices when my niblings have a play area for them at no additional price.

    Super cute boba tea and snack shop in Alameda. There is a pretty ample kids' play area (as depicted in the photo), and the decorations are very pink-y and cute. They mostly sell boba and sweet snacks (think waffles, mochi donuts, etc.). I ordered a Honey Jasmine Tea with boba, and my friend ordered some mochi donuts and a Milk Tea. My drink order was half sweet and less ice. There was no milk in mine, and I could generally taste the tea. However, I would have preferred the honey flavor to be a little stronger and for the boba itself to have more flavor. My friend's tea was actually very good, and I would consider going back for Milk Tea based drinks. Out of the donuts we had, I enjoyed the churro donut the most - a light sprinkle of cinnamon sugar was the perfect way to highlight the fried dough. Overall, not a bad place to enjoy a casual afternoon/late morning snack!

    $1 Mochi on Tuesday. Mango Cloud (6.80)

    Tomo Tea House replaced Bober Tea with similar infrastructure & expanded food menu. Offerings (drinks): classics, specialties, Phin coffee, Fresh fruit tea, coconut cloud foam, matcha, matcha, espresso. Food: croffles, mochi donuts/waffles. Bites: Tuesday's special: mochi donut (1) with purchase of drink. -mochi donut fresh & nice chewiness. Churro flavoring just "dust". Not exciting. Tried ordering on kiosk which didn't register mochi donut for $1. Protocol is to order Drink lst, then donut. Remedy problem at counter. Sipes: Mango Cloud (6.8) less ice. -no mango fruit used, haziness of mango hints at purée. Not cool for a premium drink. -coconut water didn't seem adequate for a premium drink. Purée + water = bland sweetness. * a China boba company makes fresh coconut juice in a cloud drink for $1 more.

    First time visiting and I can't believe I haven't been here before. Great place for boba tea and mochi donuts. Good seating area and play area for the little kids. Instagram worthy areas too. I got the jasmine milk tea. Wonderful to taste the jasmine and 50% was good enough. I need to come back and try the others. The mochi donuts were good too. Right consistency of topping to donut. This place has hot to be a secret as I would imagine more people would come here if they knew about it.

    Reeven S.

    They have a playground inside the shop! This is one of those very picturesque, Instagram-story worthy boba pics, and they're actually delicious! I ordered the Strawberry Matcha drink and I finished it so fast. It was sweet, tasty, and I can't wait to get another one. This shop seems like a hidden gem and really deserves more attention.

    Saw this place on TikTok and really wanted to try the viral Dubai chocolate strawberries without dealing with crazy wait times or crowds. Tomo is a nice little tea shop with drinks and treats like mochi donuts and croffles. As far as the strawberries go, it was okay. Very heavy on the Nutella and like three xl strawberries cut in half. Which there were a few more considering the price. I believe this item is available for a limited time.

    Such a cute experience, British afternoon tea meets Malaysian comfort!…read more I came here recently with my partner for our anniversary and was completely delighted with the experience. Heads up, this place is street parking only so come prepared! I would also recommend making a reservation since it is a smaller space (it was busy when I came!) The menu is pretty straight forward and majority of folks including us ordered a set for $45 each person. It comes with two choices of sandwiches, a scone, an array of sweets, and tea of choice. What makes this place so great too is that they allow you to pick sandwiches that are traditional to English Breakfast or you can go out of your way to pick traditionally Asian flavors. Between my partner and I we ordered: Meat floss sandwich (my favorite but that is because I have an affinity for meat floss), beef jerky (love how it paired with the creamy mayo), kaya jam with butter (a delicious salty sweet blend), and chicken curry (comfort food at best). We both enjoyed the scone with clotted cream and jam, very typical for afternoon tea, and in the dessert tier we got chocolate rocks (fun!), macarons, ube chiffon cake, and a strawberry sago pudding. Heads up everyone in your party gets their own tea set so you can mix and match to share with folks. Btw, they do have square sugar cubes, a nice accent. Overall, I feel like you should try this place at least once! Everything was great including our service!
