    TP TEA @ SOUTHCENTER Parking is available, but there honestly aren't that many spots probably around 5-6 dedicated spaces. The rest are shared with nearby businesses like AT&T, and it was surprisingly packed for a Thursday afternoon. Luckily, we found one spot all the way in the back under AT&T, but I do wish there was more parking available or a larger lot. Getting there from the freeway is pretty easy though, you basically just make a quick right turn straight into TP Tea, but it can be easy to miss if you're not paying attention. I've been to this boba shop before in San Diego, so when I saw a location in Washington, I knew I had to bring my dad. I ordered the lychee fruit tea, and he got the mango tea with light ice and added boba. One downside is that this location doesn't allow substitutions like the San Diego one does, I usually swap lychee jelly for boba at no extra cost, but here they charge extra. The service wasn't the best. When we walked in, the staff didn't seem very welcoming and mostly just looked at us. There was only one self-order kiosk, and a couple was taking a while on it (which is totally fine), but the employees didn't step in to help take orders either. It felt a bit inconvenient since we were just waiting to see if anyone would help us, but eventually they did take our order. The drinks themselves were pretty good. My dad's mango tea ended up being more icy than expected even though we asked for light ice, I think it's because it's a blended drink, so the consistency was thinner rather than thicker. My lychee tea was really good though, I'd definitely recommend it. Even at 50% sweetness, it leaned on the sweeter side, but still very enjoyable. The ambiance is nice, the space is big with plenty of seating, and there's a steady flow of people coming in and out. Overall, it's still a solid spot to check out. Just be prepared for limited parking and slightly inconsistent service.

    Stopped by right before closing on a Wednesday and it was still pretty busy definitely a popular spot. The staff was fast paced but still friendly, handling orders smoothly even near closing time. The place itself is very clean, bright, and has a modern feel. Drinks were solid. I like that you can customize sweetness and ice levels to your preference. We tried the Treasure Taro Milk Tea and Pearl Milk Tea both were good, with a nice balance of flavor and texture. Overall, a great spot if you're craving milk tea. Quick service, clean environment, and consistent drinks

    My favorite bubble teashop in town.Very clean, and nice location. Staff always so nice and friendly. I'm here almost every week...

    Tasty tea. Brewed well and mixed well. The sugar and ice levels are well adjusted. Fast service after ordering on the self-order pad. Chill and quiet inside on a Tuesday at 2pm with two baristas working the counter. Ok the parking lot tho. Gotta be careful entering, careful exiting. Might even suggest parking elsewhere to cross the street on foot to reach this location.

    My husband really wanted to write a review so here it is: this TP Tea location is clean and spacious, easy place to meetup at. The music is too loud inside and there is an entrance from the road that can be mistaken for an exit, but there is no way to leave from that direction without risking getting in a car crash.

    This place just recently opened and it was very crowded when we went. We came on a Sunday around 4 PM and waited about 30 minutes from walking in to getting our order. The store is clean and nicely decorated, though it could use a little more seating. The boba was really good and had a soft, chewy texture. The drinks were yummy overall, and the mango tea was a favorite. It had fresh mango pieces in it which made it extra refreshing. Parking is limited and many people were using the AT&T spots nearby. I think the long wait was probably because the store is still new. We will have to come back again and see if the wait time improves.

    I'm glad another quality chained boba store has opened in Tukwila/Southcenter area! There's no need to go to DT or Bellevue for it anymore especially now that another competitor also opened around the region not long ago as well. The location is new, so the interior design is modern and clean. Imo while the design if nice, since it's fairly open concept from the kitchen as well as the music, it gets quite loud imo to hang out. Tea is great, staffs are young and friendly as well.

    TP Tea is one of my favorite boba spots is around the Greater Seattle area. I went during the BOGO special on their grand opening. It is located in it's own building and there is a small lot but I would say that it could be hard to find parking. The interior is really nice and there's a decent amount of seating on the interior. I'm definitely coming here for my boba if I'm in the area. Staff: Nice (5/5) Sanitation status: Really clean (5/5) Strawberry Milk Tea (5/5) This drink is a slushy type drink where they blend some strawberries with the milk tea. There are some seeds inside the drink if you're not a fan then beware. It has a refreshing taste of fruit if you're also looking to get a milk tea. Egg Cake (3.5/5) The egg cake was alright, it wasn't exactly crispy on the outside it was kind of like the taste of a waffle, I was expecting something similar to a bubble waffle but it was different.

    always a solid spot for boba. not my go to anymore as I was introduced to HeyTea but it's a solid spot. drinks are always consistent and yummy. space was clean but parking is a little tight at this location

    we tried TP tea over the weekend and the service was quick and friendly. it took awhile to look over the menu, and the staff was very patient and willing to help. i ended up getting the taro matcha latte 80% sweetness. it was the perfect amount of sweet and the taro was a nice touch! i loved that it was a fresh mix of taro. i could've added maybe an extra bit of matcha, but overall, i would definitely come back here to try their other drinks. there's some seats and tables set up in a big open space, and surrounded by windows. a cute little day cafe or quick pick up spot. :) parking is a bit tight but doable! note: it says dogs are allowed on their yelp page. i brought my pup in to order and while i waited. not sure how pet friendly they really are, but nobody objected and there are no signs stating pets are not allowed!

    TP tea opened up this year right by south center and the drinks were all good and solid. I also like how they have QQ noodles which is an interesting topping that not many other chains carry. My only gripe is that the location is kind of wonky. If you're heading south on Southcetner Pkwy, it's a little difficult to cut across the right lane and then immediately turn into the plaza. Other than that, solid spot for tea.

    Very easy to miss so make sure you turn into the AT&T parking lot to get here. They have self-order kiosk as well as someone at the front desk to take your ordered as well. Very clean and modern inside. There isn't a lot of seating though. It got quite busy after we went around 8PM Friday night. Service was quick! I do think their drinks are more on the sweeter side so I'd probably lessen the sugar level next time. Sea salt crema mango tea was good but also thought it was mango tea was very sweet. Their teas are also pretty strong imo. I ordered the sea salt crema wintermelon tea once and my heart was racing and I almost did zoomies after I drank it lol.

    Good tea! The mango flavor felt a little weird to me, but the boba was nice and chewy. I liked that they have a self-order kiosk, which makes it easy to order. Went around 8 PM and didn't have to wait long to get my drink.

I had the African Spice Latte without the syrup, and it was still absolutely delicious. The service was wonderful, friendly, welcoming, and genuinely engaging. You can tell they have a lot of regular customers, and after my experience, I can definitely see why! But what really made this place special was what happened with my wallet. I had accidentally dropped it outside the coffee shop and spent the evening worried sick, having no idea where I had lost it, since I noticed it was missing until late at night... When I came back to the coffee shop the next day, he surprised me by telling me he had my wallet! Not only had he kept it safe, but he had actually tried to personally return it to the address on my driver's license. Unfortunately, I had recently moved, so I no longer lived there. The fact that he went that far out of his way to try to get it back to me meant so much! Since my wallet had been missing, I had locked all my cards the night before. After getting it back, I unlocked them and tried to pay for my coffee, but they wouldn't go through right away. I was mortified! Instead of making me feel uncomfortable, he simply told me not to worry and that I could come back and pay later, which, of course, I did! After such a stressful start to my birthday weekend, his honesty and kindness completely turned things around. Great coffee, wonderful service, and genuinely good people. I'm incredibly grateful and will absolutely be back!

The pastries are buttery, flaky, and somehow manage to ruin every grocery store croissant for the rest of your life. The coffee is excellent, the staff is consistently friendly, and it's one of those places where it's impossible to leave with only the one thing you came in for.
