TP Tea Berryessa is a dangerous kind of convenient: the type of place that sits right around the corner from my childhood home and suddenly turns a quick errand into "we might as well grab drinks and waffles." But convenience only gets you in the door. The quality is what makes you come back. The Lychee Berry Smoothie is my personal favorite: bright, refreshing, clean, and balanced without being overly sweet. My kids loved the egg waffles, especially because they come out warm, crisp, and fun to share. My son went straight for the Brown Sugar Boba Milk, and that one has that rich, smooth, classic brown sugar flavor that tastes like comfort in a cup. What impressed me most is the value. Everything feels polished, fresh, and well put together without feeling overpriced for what you get. Great drinks, great waffles, great location, and the kind of consistency that makes this an easy family go-to. Beautiful quality, strong value, and dangerously convenient in the best possible way. Easy 5 stars. read more

I've been here twice now, and unfortunately this visit was a disappointing experience. I decided to try something new--the Lychee Berry Smoothie--but it didn't turn out well. While I generally like strawberries, the strawberry sauce in this drink tasted off. Not sure if it taste bad because it's near the end of the day. I noticed a sign stating that if you're not satisfied with your drink, it can be remade. So I politely asked if they could remake mine without the strawberry since that was the only issue. At first, the employee told me they couldn't remake it without strawberry, which was confusing given the posted policy. I explained again that the strawberry tasted bad and pointed out the sign. Only then did she agree to remake it. Everything else about the drink was fine, and I wouldn't have asked for a remake if the strawberry sauce hadn't tasted spoiled. The interaction just felt unnecessarily difficult and left a bad impression. It was upsetting to end my day with this kind of experience. Honestly, this place isn't my favorite to begin with--I only came because my boyfriend likes it--but after this, I probably won't be ordering anything for myself again. read more

OK, the first time I tried this place I got the fruit tea and honestly wasn't crazy about it. It's very tart and sweet. I had to go home and dilute the crap out of it (I got 80% sweet), but the tartness was too much. Then I tried their Taro milk (I usually get this at another spot and it was closed) and it is SOOOO Good. I'm definitely coming back for this again and again. You order via their tablets or if you're having a hard time, there is also someone at the front register to assist. Clean, fast, efficient! Tried the thai tea cremebrulee drink too. It was good but very creamy. read more

Been ordering using Snackpass. Drinks are consistent and ready on time. Getting 4 Seasons Osmanthus 80% sweet with tea jelly hits the tea and sweetness craving just right. Fiancee prefers 50% sweet with boba. read more

Such a nice looking location! They make online orders fast. The new velvet Jasmine line was tasty so I'd be back for that. I'm a tieguanyin fan and I would say their version tasted like a regular roasted oolong which is still good, just not quite yet what I'm looking for. Overall the tea taste comes through in their drinks so I'm happy. No outdoor dining tables - only nearby ones from a competitor. It's located in a plaza with a good amount of parking. read more

TP Tea - Outside - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

I bought 4 boba drinks and asked for a bag to carry them in. I thought it would be either the cardboard drink holder or the bags with 2 compartments, but it was just a normal bag. We just came home and put the bag on the table, but because the drinks were sitting in a plastic bag without any support, they toppled over. Two drinks opened up. The paper cup opened at the top where the plastic seal is, but the seal is weak. The plastic cup busted open on two sides, split all the way from top to bottom with the drink pouring out. This has never happened to me before. PI called and told them about the weak cups and lack of support for the drinks, but they wouldn't offer a refund or replacement for the drinks (though I told them I can bring the broken cups as proof). I am extremely disappointed and will never return to this shop again. read more

First time trying this location! Ordered usual via snackpass: boba mango milk tea passion fruit green tea Some seating inside. Parking probably tough during peak hours. read more

Super easy experience, placing an order online and picking up once ready. The store itself is super small and can see maybe 6 to 10 people maximum. There are two self order kiosk inside the store, but I would highly recommend ordering ahead of time online. YGF family milk tea was so good. Would not recommend getting the Bubble Egg Waffle though, it's supposed to be crisp but moist and even a little chewy on the inside, like a waffle, but this rendition tasted (texture-wise) crisp like a waffle cone and lacked the flavor of the classic bubble egg waffle batter. read more

I was needing some boba on my way home from work and well I have a lot of options now so we decided to try the TP Tea at Berryessa. In short, maybe it was just a bad day, but my hubby's Jasmine Milk Tea did not treat his tummy well and mine was slightly questionable but it was the perfect sweetness with solid grass jelly and the service was quick! L O C A T I O N TP Tea is located in a plaza off of N. Capitol Blvd and easy access right off of 680. They have a shared parking lot and though there are a number of compact spots, they're much wider than your typical ones and could be treated as normal parking spots. I easily found a spot not too far away. I N S I D E It's small inside. There are two kiosks to the right when you enter and there are maybe 2-3 small tables where you can sit but it's really not a place to hang out. M E N U I perused their menu at the kiosk. I decided to go and order something classic. I've had TP Tea before at other locations. I got their House Milk Tea with Grass Jelly and my hubby a Jasmine Milk Tea with boba. I typically get no sugar and no ice whenever I get a topping and for me my drink was perfect in terms of sweetness from their grass jelly. It was milky. My hubby unfortunately had some stomach issues after only drinking a few sips. I don't know if it was the tea or the creamer or even the boba they use but yeah he did not have a great experience. Mine seemed fine. S E R V I C E I believe they use SnackPass as their ordering system so may be easy to just order and pick up, though it took very little time from my ordering at the kiosk to when I picked up my order. I paid by touchless payment. O V E R A L L Not a bad spot to grab a milk tea or drink of your choice. Be wary though of the jasmine but perhaps it was just that batch that day. The spot is tiny so don't expect to hang out there but for a quick boba grab, it was good! read more

Ordered the Lychee Berry smoothie with 80% sugar. Place was really small, so not meant to hold many people. It was pretty busy when I got there. Made my order through the kiosk instead. I wanted something not too sweet, but fruity. The lychee berry looked good, so I ended up getting that. I knew it was a blended drink, so I intentionally did not order any toppings like boba or lychee jelly. I feel like it would be challenging to drink a smoothie with toppings. The smoothie was perfect for me. The lychee flavor was not overpowering. It was thoroughly blended. Rarely had any chunks of ice. The strawberry bits were nice. They weren't big or frozen. I don't go to many boba places often. This place is not too bad. Good drink, good service and easy to order. read more

This TP Tea is located in the Berryessa Hills plaza. They have plenty of parking available but maybe the closer spots are harder to find. They are located close to Christy's Donuts, Frank & Further's, Tastea, etc. The place is small and only has a few inside tables and seats. Two kiosks & an cashier to order from. The large display shows you when drinks are ready or where in the queue. They were offering a BOGO on their Orange Series Drinks. *California Sunset: w/cube pearl, strawberry, orange (4/5). 80% sweet and less ice. The drink was tasty, though, still a tad sweet. The cube pearls were unique and pleasantly good, soft, and chewy. Support your local business. read more

TGY family milk tea is my go to and it's always consistent. Their service is quick and they're very friendly!

TP Tea is poppin' off and opening multiple franchises all across the Bay Area. I originally tried the TP Tea in Berkeley and thought it was just ok. Recently, I tried something else at the Sunnyvale location and loved it! Ever since, we go to TP Tea all the time. My absolute favorite is the Taiwan Milk Tea which includes 3 toppings, but the Classic Boba Milk Tea, Lemon Green Tea, and Black Tea Crema are all delicious. The only drink I didn't enjoy is the Strawberry Milk Tea. Unfortunately, at this Berryessa location, they don't allow preordering through Snackpass yet so you have to order in person and wait for your drink(s). They mentioned it's because they want to interact with customers but I'm sure people would prefer to just order online and pick up to minimize wait time and increase convenience like at all the other locations. Overall, I'm so glad that they're opening more shops and cannot wait for the Milpitas one. In the meantime, we'll continue to visit this Berryessa location. read more

I recently took notice of TP Tea while stopping by the strip mall to grab some dinner. Though I didn't end up getting boba of the time, I did try the place a week or so later as I came to find out that my sister was a huge fan of it. We visited TP Tea around 1pm on a Friday. The place was so busy, but the crowd was a mix of mobile orders and on the spot to-go orders. TP Tea was in a small space, which made it feel a bit cramped with all the guests in there. That said, we didn't have to wait very long for our drinks. We placed our orders on the kiosk and waited about 5 minutes until we received them. My sister got the 4 seasons milk tea, which was had a nice floral flavor and a well balanced amount of sweetness. I got the mango boba milk tea that my husband and I enjoyed. It was more of a slushy because of fhe blended ice, but it had a creaminess to it almost like smoothie. I thought their boba was great in terms of taste, texture, and firmness. I'd be back to try other flavors. It appeared that they specialized in exotic flavores teas instead of your run of the mill milk teas. read more

I'm such a sucker for black sesame. They had a whole series surrounded around it which was really exciting for me. I ordered the Sesame Iron Goddess Cube Pearls Milk Tea -- perfectly nutty and sweet. I will forsure be coming back to order this! Two ordering kiosks upon entering. I went on a Saturday night and it was not busy at all which was surprising to me. Pretty chill environment. They make it easy to obtain your order as they have a huge screen monitoring your order status, a loud speaker that announces your order, and designated spots on the counter that coordinate with your order number. read more

Pricey but good! Use to frequent TP Tea a lot back in Cal and it's always a solid spot for Jasmine and blended strawberry. Got smaller straws for smaller boba/grass jelly/ no boba and large straws for drinks with boba in it. If you order on Snackpass be sure to ask for no bags otherwise it's an extra 10cents. Insides got 3 tables and is pretty small / warm, this a grab n go spot for me. read more

Strawberry milk tea 5/5 - I love this drink! Tastes like I'm drinking a pocky smoothie. Very flavorful and the tea flavor is strong which I like but it's still a good balance with the strawberry. Not too sweet. Bits of strawberry is good too and it doesn't taste like artificial strawberry Parking lot is big. Only downside is there isn't much seating inside so more of a pick up and go boba spot read more

Hmmm.... I'm just not impressed. Had TP Tea for the first time since they had recently opened its Berryessa location. I'm typically not huge on boba and only have few places where I visit to satisfy this kind of craving. Purchases: PREMIUM JASMINE GREEN TEA LATTE x2 GOLDEN OSMANTHUS AIYU LEMONADE WINTER MELON TIE GUAN YIN TIE GUAN YIN OOLONG LATTE This was the first time the entire fam unanimously agreed that these purchases were a waste of money, calories, and an absolute DISAPPOINTMENT. Drinks were either super super sweet, including the lemonade!! With a lemonade you'd assume you would be receiving some kind of tart effect and it was just a punch of heavy sweetness straight to the throat! OR!! The drinks were super bland- containing no tea flavor or sweetener. 1 star. I can't see myself wanting to come back. I'd like to assume these disastrous buys were due to staff being new and still trying to learn the ropes.... But who knows. read more

Was picking up lunch from Frankfurter's and saw TP tea a couple stores down. I decided to try their milk tea. A very modern looking store which seats 8-10 people. No one was at the register so I ordered from the kiosk. There were two of them. As usual, I order the standard boba milk tea. Their advertisement says they are the best and they certainly are. I look forward to trying their other flavors out. read more

This is one of my favorite boba shops. I love their milk tea! it's creamy, consistent, and you can actually taste the tea. I know they have many locations, but this one is especially good. Oh i also love the qq noodles! I also really like their passion fruit tea because it doesn't taste overly syrupy like some other places. The flavors taste more fresh and balanced. They're also very fast, and I never really have to wait long for my drinks. I definitely appreciate the quick and efficient service. read more

Another new boba spot in the Berryessa area! TP tea just recently open so expect a line when you come here. Very small location with only 3 small tables, so very limited seating. Expect to wait outside the store and/or get your drinks to-go. Just tried the Four Season Osmanthus Fresh Milk Tea and Mango Matcha Latte. Both very good drinks! You can customize the sweetness and ice level, just keep in mind some drinks cannot be adjusted. They also ran out of boba when we arrived and it was going to be a longer wait, so fair warning you may have to wait longer if you really want your boba. Plenty of parking, the spots directly in front might be taken but just park further over by McDonald's or Dollar Tree, just a few steps away! read more

TP Tea - Tie Guan Yin Milk Tea with Boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

TP Tea - Berryessa Now I no longer have to travel to the Cupertino or Oakridge locations - thank you! This specific location was under construction all summer long (2024) and finally on social, there were posts about a grand opening. I had to stop by and check it out. Food/Drinks Tie Guan Yin Milk Tea - $5.95 I ordered a large Tie Guan Yin Milk Tea with regular sweetness and less ice. The quality of the drink was consistent with the Cupertino location. It wasn't overly creamy and had the subtle tea flavor notes. The boba was nice and chewy (not al dente). Ambiance Small boba shop for grab-and-go or lounge at the tables inside. There were Christmas decorations hung around the boba shop and a tree. It was bright inside with the standard menu displayed from the ceiling and printed hardcopy. When I visited, it was in the soft opening phase and there were already quite a bit of customers ordering drinks. It felt a bit claustrophobic with the line to order and waiting around for ordering both inside and outside of the storefront. Parking/Location It is located in the same plaza as McDonalds, Tastea, and next door to Christy's donuts. Parking can be tough during peak hours. Customer Service The customer service was quick and friendly. It took a few minutes from placing the order to picking it up. I waited at one of the tables until my number was called. read more

Location Same plaza as Tastea. Across the street of the Safeway plaza on Berryessa. Tucked away on the side of a smaller lot. Next to a donut shop. Service after grand opening rather slow which is understandable. They have the snack pass app but it was not open to take orders yet. I was able to get a text notification for when my drink order would be ready but it's just an estimate (~20 -25 mins) . I went to Safeway and came back by the estimated time but they still needed like 3 more minutes fyi. Maybe it will be faster next time or on a weekday Small store not really a space to sit except for 2 small tables maybe. Mostly occupied by those waiting for the orders.. My go to drinks are tie guan ying milk tea with coffee jelly 50% sweetness and the strawberry milk tea (its more of like a smoothie but really good fresh strawberry taste) 50-80% sweetness Glad it opened up near by. read more

Located in the same plaza as Tastea on berryessa and former umai hotdogs. They're currently having their soft opening but will be having their grand opening mid-December. I love TP tea and I'm excited I won't have to travel to Cupertino for quality tea. My favorite drink is the tie guan yin fresh milk tea or four seasons osmanthus fresh milk tea with pudding or house made Taro paste. I love how tea forward their drinks are, so you can really taste the tea. The store is sleek and modern. The service was very quick and polite! The store isn't big, it's more of a grab and go store. read more

Visited on a Saturday afternoon and it was packed. Lots of people wait outside bc the store isn't big enough for everyone. I waited about 15 minutes for my drink. I ordered a boba milk tea with egg pudding and it was pretty solid. No complaints! They have 3 kiosks to order from. They also have a machine that shows all the order #s, and the wait time for each order. Parking was difficult bc of the crowd. Hoping to try mobile ordering ahead next time to cut the wait. read more

Came on the first day of their grand opening and they were offering BOGO for 6 specific drinks which were their boba milk tea, strawberry milk tea, oats tie guan yin fresh milk tea, tie guan yin fresh milk tea, passion fruit green tea, and TYG family milk tea. We got all except for their boba milk tea and oats tie guan yin fresh milk tea. My rating for the drinks I got today in order of favorite to least favorite is strawberry milk tea, passion fruit green tea, TYG family milk tea, then tie guan yin fresh milk tea. I would highly recommend their strawberry milk tea, followed by their passion fruit green tea, and their TYG family milk tea. As expected, the promotion was a great offer so there was a line, but the line moved at a fair pace. Service was friendly and the staff were knowledgeable in their drinks. The interior design was white marble and black themed, small, cozy, and clean. There are three tables inside which can seat 6 people indoors. read more

I ordered a drink with less ice, but when it came out, about half the cup was still filled with ice. I went back and asked if they could remove some, and when they returned it, the cup was only about 70% full. I was told this was because I had asked for "less topping." it was disappointing they gave this kind of service. I hope the staff can be more attentive to customer requests and clearer about modifications in the future. read more

Got the pineapple ice tea with tea jelly. One of worst fruit teas ever. There's some disgusting lemon peels and shavings that just make it feel like you're drinking paper. Tasteless drink with little to no fluids or jelly. The straw meant for boba is just sucking up chunks of ice like they think it's enjoyable to chew or swallow ice whole. Skip on this. Paid a premium to drink paper and break my teeth on tasteless water. read more

I'm giving this place a 3.75-4. Overall this tea spot is new, clean, friendly staff and quick service. It's a small space so no outdoor seating and about 4 tables inside. I ordered the salted Cream Jasmine with a 50% sugar option. I also ordered the strawberry smoothie and the salted cream mango. All three were delicious and perfect of sweetness. You can tell the tea they use is legit and not flavored. Very authentic and has a clean taste. The Mango tea also had mango bits for texture. read more

I LOVE TP TEA so I was so happy to find out that they finally opened in the Berryessa area! This location is a few doors down from Tastea. I came on a weekday around 3PM and it took about 13 minutes for my drink to be ready. I love that they text you when your drink is ready so I just went back to my car until I received a text since the store was pretty busy. I always get the strawberry milk tea with boba here since it never disappoints! I've also heard great things about the tie guan yin milk tea with qq noodles! This location is pretty small. They have a small bench that can seat about 6 people total. They're currently in their soft opening phase so definitely come get a drink before it gets busy! Hopefully they open their Snackpass ordering soon. They're open everyday from 12-6PM! read more

TP Tea - Strawberry milk tea with boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

Drinks of choice today were Tieguanyin Milk Tea with Boba and the Strawberry Milk Tea. Both are favorites I return to time and time again. I enjoy the flavor profile of tieguanyin tea; it's complex, balancing floral and nutty notes, and pairs well with milk. The TP Tea drink I'm always craving especially during San Jose 90 degree days is the Strawberry-- it's blended with ice; one sip and I'm transported back to balancing a cone underneath strawberry ice cream and cannonballing in neighborhood pools. Texturally perfect, lightly sweet, and the right balance of strawberry and black tea. More of a grab and go spot with 3 small tables and not a ton of standing room inside. It's kept clean and the decor is bright and friendly. Quick service at this location and consistent quality makes this a spot I'd happily return to. read more

There was a dispute when I came in. Some customer was complaining about her husband's drink but didn't have a receipt to prove their purchase. This was in the morning after they open. I was appalled by the customer having the audacity to come in and try to get a free drink without a receipt. They handle that customer as much as they could. They even have video proof that the husband would come in and say the drink was too much and stole a drink. Good for them. I love how they have a menu of non caffeinated drinks and it's printed on the display menu. My honey lemonade was just right. They have maybe 5 different levels of sugar level which I thought was inclusive. I got 30% and I'm glad I did because it's lemonade. It's already sweet with actual lemonade and honey. It's a small shop with a few seating. I feel that seating can fit 6 people comfortably. I really like how they text you if your order is done and have a screen that tells you how many minutes to wait for your drink. read more

Got the winter melon tie guan yin tea with boba and it was decent! Caffeine is strong so beware.

This is a fairly new location to Berryessa so my friend and I stopped by here since it's closer. This location was more of a pick up and go as the inside is small. They did have three small tables and chairs to sit but mostly everyone was standing outside waiting for their drink. I ordered the mango fruit tea with jelly and reduced sweetness. It was nice and refreshing and it tasted like it was made with real mango rather than mango syrup. When I drank it, you can taste the mango grainy ish texture when it's in a drink. The tea flavor however wasn't as strong as I was expecting. They do have competition next door so if nothing interests you from TP, you can walk two stores down to check out Tastea. Next time I visit, I would want to try out some of their signature milk teas or teas. read more
