    This is my go to place for cheap good tasting boba! There are lots of boba places in the bay area. But, if you need to get your boba fix really quick and cheap. There's no place better than Tpumps. Specially on Tuesday's, you get a free upgrade to their humongous Pumbo size. The honey boba is always fresh and soft. They have tons of flavored teas and exotic flavors too. The staff are always friendly and service is quick. The place sometimes gets messy because of the high volume of people coming in. The lines do move pretty quickly. Next time you're in Burlingame and want to satisfy your boba craving, give Tpumps a try. They also have a location on Irving Street in SF.

    I wanted to grab a nice cold drink before my shift so here I am. I ordered the mango passion fruit tea w/black tea. The drink was pretty good and my drink came out in like a minute which I was really happy about. Definitely recommend checking out if you like good drinks and quick service. Try it out if you like. :)

    Refreshing drinks for a warm afternoon. Not the best boba drinks out there but does the job. They usually have long lines to get through so efficiency is prioritized over customer service. That works for me though as staff is pleasant.

    Parking here is a pain -- Burlingame isn't exactly known for being easy to park in. But once you finally get your drink, it hits you... yeah, this was worth it. I got the iced Tpumps-sized strawberry mango lychee black milk tea, regular sweet, with boba -- easily a 5/5. Brought me back to high school days when I used to have Tpumps all the time. Kinda nostalgic, and still just as good as I remember. My boyfriend ordered the green apple lychee green tea, and he said it was a 4/5 -- refreshing, but mine definitely won this round. Only downside was the sticky floors -- definitely could use a quick mop here and there. But aside from that, it's a solid spot. 5/5 from me.

    super sweet drink in the marked down fridge!

    i wonder if the staff that makes the drinks in the fridge taste the drinks before they put them out to sell! the service could be better if customers made a line for others to go and checkout what they have in the fridge ambiance is a walk in boba place with no seats btw i got a kiwi raspberry PA (?) yesterday and from the photo, i didnt drink much today! why? bc its like drinking diabetes! holy moly its soooooo sweet your teeth will fall out swallowing what wouldve been a refreshing drink turned into your heart just palpitating much faster for how sweet this was! i think i will stick to getting drinks at san mateo and sunnyvale where the drinks are a little more consistent will definitely have to add a bottle of water to this one!

    I love T Pumps. Every time I go I'm met with such kind people, quick service, and great quality drinks. There's this one barista, I think her name was Hali and she remembers my name and has such a good work ethic. I got the Peach, Raspberry, blackberry green tea, and she literally helped me come up with the right flavors to use. The ambience made by the staff, Tv, and music is just amazing. 5 stars!!

    I went on t pumo tuesday where you got a free upgrade to a large! I got the lychee green tea with boba. Its really good but its not on my top list of boba places. Theres only two tables and the place was empty when i went. It doesn't have a tea taste and it just tastes like sugar water. There was just music playing and it wasnt too noisey.

    I had so many great things over the years about Trumps and finally had a chance to try this location. It's great being able to have a blend of custom flavors for your drink. The serving was a sizeable portion for larger order and really nice to have on a nice to have on a warm day. Service: The wait wasn't too long at all Ambiance: the place is small, wish there were seats and it was bigger.

    mango peach lychee bmt with honey boba
    Alyssa B.

    Bay Area locals KNOW about Tpump Tuesdays. Every Tuesday after school, my parents would take my friends and I to the OG San Mateo one or this one for a pumbo drink. Lines would be out the door but we all remember how worth it it was. The vibes inside would always be lit, especially before a game or on the weekends. Nowadays it's mainly the teens who post up here now or adults who haven't outgrown torani syrup boba quite yet (no judgement haha.) My classic order: Mango Peach Lychee - Black Milk Tea - Normal Sweetness - Honey Boba **or if I'm feeling extra - honeydew vanilla bmt

    Strawberry guava mango with black tea
    Hope L.

    Came here right before closing and it was empty. I got a strawberry mango guava drink with black tea which was really tasty as I added milk to it. It was refreshing and paired well with my tacos! My boyfriend got the blackberry rose vanilla with black milk tea and it had a subtle sweetness and was delicious. However, the service wasn't great as the worker definitely didn't want to be there and she was a bit rude to us by rushing us to choose a drink. Overall, I do love coming here but I wasn't impressed with the service which is why I gave it 4 stars.

    Finally checked out the Burlingame location. I want to say this location isn't as nice inside as the one here in Fremont, but the drinks taste just the same! The prices are matched, and the service is quick!

    Passion fruit tangerine green tea with milk
    Natalie M.

    They have great flavors and a mix of things to be good for anyone's tastebuds. I like their milk teas with passion fruit and tangerine. It is a bit on the sweet side but you can adjust sweetness if needed. This place gets busy! You can always choose iced/hot options that are unsweet as well.

    I love all their different flavors and boba they have! Usually I get the same thing but here, it's too good not to try every drink lol

I watched their reactions when taking the first sip, it was a lot of head nodding and thumbs upping to their friends so I felt like I had to go in and try for myself. Went in and ordered an earl gray matcha and my partner ordered a passion mango tea w boba. The matcha & the passion fruit was so good! The boba was chewy and sweet. I would definitely recommend coming and trying! I really wanted to try their strawberry matcha but I'm always so skeptical (I have trust issues w bad strawb matchas) but the earl gray was good, so maybe I'll try next visit. The interior was nice, menu was straight forward on the wall and on the check out table -- only thing is the description of the drinks weren't shown on the menus until you're on the self check out kiosk. I was curious about the sunny side up matcha thinking it was made with real egg yolk (which I thought kinda weird?) but the kiosk said that it was mango. You didn't really talk to staff at all & the drinks came out pretty fast! Would come back again.

I later found out they closed that same day due to some kind of sewage/health inspection issue, so I decided to give them another chance after they reopened, especially since friends recommended their other locations. My visits since then have definitely been better. My go-to is now the Double Matcha at 50% sweet. It has a strong matcha flavor, is creamy, and is really good when made right. I definitely won't be getting the matcha einspanner again though. The biggest issue is consistency. Not every visit tastes the same, but when it's good, it's good. The shop also sometimes has a noticeable bathroom/cleaning chemical smell, which isn't the most pleasant when you're sitting inside.

    Sama Coffee Shop in San Mateo understands that a café can be more than a place to consume coffee;…read moreit can be an exercise in atmosphere and appetite. The room is quietly elegant, its Middle Eastern influences expressed through considered décor rather than theatrical excess. There is an appealing sense of decorum here; a place designed to encourage lingering rather than turnover. The coffee is similarly assured. Turkish coffee possesses the requisite depth and bitterness, while the rose-cardamom-honey latte introduces floral sweetness and spice with admirable restraint. The pastries and sweets--particularly the baklava and kunafeh--provide a luxurious counterpoint without descending entirely into confectionery excess. At roughly $10-$20 per person, Sama occupies a sensible price point for an experience that feels considerably more considered than the average neighborhood coffee shop. Sama is, ultimately, a café with a point of view and that is increasingly rare. The service was designed to provide you with a feeling that you're like a beloved family member.
