The drink quality has gotten bad. The boba is sometimes tasteless. We ordered three green milk teas, but received two black milk teas. Considering that it takes around 20 minutes to get to this location, I strongly recommend going to the one in Fremont instead. I wish the drinks were better, since the inside is empty. I guess-slow means bad drinks. I missed when they took ordered by the door rather than opening the shop... the drinks were MUST better then. read more

Always the best boba in the bay area! We always line up on Tuesdays for the tpump tuesday deals. Drinks are never too sweet and are very customizable. I like going for simple drinks here. read more

The best time to go here is when they have their weekly special: Tpump Tuesdays! You can get a Pumbo size for the price of a regular sized drink, which is an awesome deal. Even without the deal, this boba shop is a much more affordable than other boba places that can cost upwards of $6 for a smaller sized drink. This place allows you to customize your drink very easily - you can pick up to three flavors (they have tons of options), black or green tea, milk or no milk, level of sweetness, amount of ice, and whatever add-ons you like. They even usually have samples so you can test out new concoctions! Choosing flavors for your drink can be overwhelming since there are so many options, but they have a recommended drink list to help out those who are indecisive. This Tpumps is located in a small corner plaza that shares its parking lot with Trader Joe's, Popeyes, and a bank. Parking can be difficult since sometimes Trader Joe's gets really crowded. There are some tables and couches, but seating is minimal. The line can get pretty long as it seems to be a place that people of all ages frequent. read more

I really enjoy their variety and uniqueness of flavors. Many of the drinks on their menu I would have never thought of trying/pairing together but to my surprise they are very delicious! Their boba is soft and chewy and I like that they have basil seeds. My favorite drink so far is the Almond Roca raspberry vanilla black milk tea with basil seeds and light sweetness. read more

Great price and great tea as always! I think they upgraded their regular size and it's huge now! Price is cheaper than other tea places. I love that I can customize my tea :) read more

Still one of the best places around. You can order ahead except on their discount Tuesdays too

Great location by Trader Joe's and a ton of parking. Great customer service and everyone working there was super nice. Clean location with bathroom, tables, area for waiting and such. read more

Easily the best tpumps I've been to out of 4 locations. The baristas were nice and friendly and the shop itself was very aesthetically pleasing. I came with a friend to study for finals and there was lots of space to sit and work. My drink, rose vanilla green milk tea was really creamy, sweet, and flavorful. In other tpumps I've visited, the tea flavor was very watered down but that was not the case with this location. Boba was also really soft and chewy. Overall, definitely gonna return! read more

This place will forever have a place in my heart. I seriously don't care what anyone says but this is hands down my favorite boba place. I discovered this place when I use to go to De Anza a while back and anytime i'm back in this neighborhood for errands I will forever always come back to this spot. This is the one that you get to choose your own flavors, sweetness adjustments, and milk options to your choice and liking. Not to mention, they serve the softest chewy boba pearls i've had and it's just so filling. I hated that they went up in price considering it use to be the cheapest boba place compared to the other spots but hey.... still worth it to me lol! since they're borderline Cupertino, I wish they were closer to where I live, it would just be so much better. I will always recommend this place! read more

Very good boba! Love their decaf option and their discount of the day drinks! Service is always great and drinks are ready quickly

Drinks here are pretty decent/okay and definitely will satisfy your boba craving. I would agree with most reviews that say the teas here are a bit sweeter than usual. The honey boba here are on point and are boba guys standard. The main drawback of this place is that it is located in the Trader Joe's complex with a very very small parking lot, which may cause you to have to circle around multiple times prior to actually getting a spot. read more

This Tpumps is leaps and bounds better than the other one. First, the other one pretty much has no seating. Second, the other one has virtually no parking (this one is tough, but still better). Third, the other one is tiny and this one is huge. Fourth... You get the gist! This is one huge step for Tpumps and a great addition for tea in the South Bay. Still not my favorite boba tea place, but it's definitely up there in my second tier shops! Nice interior for sitting / working. Good quality tea and nice flavor. And, as a bonus, you can grab some Popeye's and make a meal of it! read more

Giving them a low rating because their drinks tastes super artificial and I can't really taste the tea flavor. Honey boba could have been better as well. The reason I'm giving them 2-stars instead of 1 is because the interior looks great, price is cheap, and most importantly, their customer service is awesome. Give them a try if you don't mind the artificial flavoring - it's a good value if you just want a drink, but not if you want tea and/or good boba. read more

New location just opened today(10/11/18) not sure this particular location already got a negative review yesterday when it wasn't even open. This store has alot more room than their other location. The staff were all really nice and provided samples of their teas. There are tons of flavor combinations to choose from. They also have various boba flavors! The honey boba is really good! They also told me about the caffine free tea for the kiddos. A nice option so they don't bounce off the walls from the sugar and caffine combo. Yes, the parking lot is a tad small, but I usually manage to find a spot in the actual lot without a problem. Don't forget about T pump Tuesdays where you can get a Pumpbo size drink for $3.50! read more

These people are jokes. I don't know what happened to their previous staff but they had to re-make our order 3 times. Had ask for specifics that was on the cup and they neglected to read the order and said no of something yet when I got it, it was in it. On the last time they were re-making our drinks they were just laughing. One guy was just on his phone and it took forever to make just 3 drinks... when they had like 5 people working, clearly they don't know what an assembly line is. They weren't even busy! What is going on. I get that it is covid-19 but seriously 3 times and laughing with a guy on his phone. They think this shit is a fucking joke is what. I want to speak with the manager of this place and their behavior. Unacceptable. read more

I've always loved Tpumps and use to always go to the ones in SF and San Mateo. Tried this location since we were in area...sad to say it was disappointing. Got the regular milk tea and it was completely watered down.....took a few sips and decided to toss it. read more

Amazing, amazing, amazing. Tpumps makes the greatest bubble tea with the most tasty boba I've ever had in my life so we were so happy when they opened another location that's easier to get to right off highway 85! This location is way nicer than the other Cupertino location, and open later too (9:45 on weeknights, 10:45 on weekends) which is clutch when you get that late night craving for Tpumps. The owner was at the store when we were there and he was also *so* nice, we're glad to regularly support such a great place that also takes care of their employees. Check it out, you can't go wrong! read more

This place is super yummy! And super affordable! I got 2 teas for only $7.60! One of them was a slushee which was mine. It was delicious! Defiantly recommended ! read more

Tpumps - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

I think this is the only place in San Jose that still charge $3.50 per drink. The price is reasonable for milk teas. The only downsize is way too sweet, every drink seemed like they over did the sugar level to 200% even when we requested 25% sugar level. It's mediocre milk teas but creative on the mixed fruity drinks. Prop for being creative. read more

Tpumps - Overly sweet, more like 200% sugar level - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

Went to opening day and was not disappointed. The tea was made exactly to my specifications and tasted great! I look forward to trying other combinations. The customer service was also a plus. We were greeted with a smile and they were very friendly and accommodating. The place also looks very chic and welcoming. There are couches and chairs conveniently placed throughout the spacious shop. Though the parking lot is on the smaller side and has to accommodate customers for the likes of Trader Joes, Popeye's, and Wells Fargo, we had absolutely no issue with parking. read more

Alright I can say, 100%, this location is better than the one less than a mile away. Why? We literally went from one to another and got almost the same drink LOL. I like Tpumps because they have SO many different flavors combos and options. It's a little overwhelming actually. I also like how they have a fridge full of pre-made teas that go for $2-3 (just a random selection of teas off the menu). I got the caramel coconut black tea, with less sweetness and taro. It was kind of funny because the lady at the register was like 'do you know what taro is?' and I'm like 'uhh.....yes?' and then I got worried that the taro they use is somehow a lot different from other places or something LOL. But no, it was the same chunky gritty stuff that I'm used to. The tea was very flavorful and rich and creamy, while the other location's was bland and watery. Very obvious difference between the two. read more

My favorite boba place ever!!! Not only is it cheaper than a lot of other places, I think Tpumps is the most consistent with their drinks overall. I really like how you get to customize your drinks exactly the way you want. I get a brown sugar, caramel BMT with no sweetness, add honey boba and it's AMAAAZING. I love these two flavors together and it's not overwhelmingly sweet which I really appreciate. read more

Tpumps is absolutely amazing. My friend and I go to Tpumps in average 2 days a week. The price is very cheap for how good tpumps is. The boba used is a good consistency and taste is great compared to T4's hard unchewy boba. Always will be coming here and always will be my # 1 tea place. read more

Tpumps - guava peach green tea w honey boba & vanilla cinnamon black milk tea. - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

They need more recognitions! I visited Saturday afternoon and there was a long waits but it was worth it. I would order online next time so that I don't have to wait 20 minutes. I ordered Strawberry Mango Peach Black Milk Tea w/Boba. And I can say this is better than boba guys. read more

They have very interesting flavors and I have yet to try any of the sweet milky ones like caramel and the like. However, I do like the texture of their boba. Otherwise, the drinks are just too sweet. More like sweetened water than tea. Pretty cheap, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. read more

We have tried numerous boba places, and this is our new favorite. Why? Because of the decaf tea option. Our little one likes tea, but we don't want her to have caffeine. So everyone is happy here. They have samples by the counter, and I've ordered the sample almost every time. Mostly because it's good, but also because they have so many flavors I'd rather not be kicking myself for ordering a bad combination. One topping (honey boba, boba bran, taro, or red bean) is included in the drink price. Popping boba is an extra $.75. I just wish they had pudding as a topping option. We've been to the one on Stevens Creek, but prefer this location because of the parking. I suppose it could get crazy with Trader Joe's in the same center, but it hasn't been a problem so far. read more

Easily one of my favorite boba places in the area. There is a lot of seating and overall space compared to the Cupertino location a few miles away. During the times I've come here, there were people doing work on laptops and studying, which is always a good site to see considering that I'm a student and always looking for new places to get some work done. The service here is quick and friendly and the employees always seem to be in a happy mood. They push out drink orders pretty fast as well. My favorites are a strawberry lychee coconut black tea or a strawberry lavender black tea (I know, I love strawberry HAHA)! I get these drinks as milk teas sometimes too depending on my mood. read more

Stopped by here on the way home from a road trip. Walking in, I was impressed to see two sample trays of the teas. I had never experienced that before at a boba shop. When I saw the menu, I was definitely overwhelmed. You can choose up to three flavors with different types of tapioca and tea! After probably 10 min I was able to finally order. The quality of the tapioca was really good! read more

Tpumps - Free samples! - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

I recently got into drinking teas like this. What I like about tpumps compared to the other places is you can actually customize your tea. You get to pick what kind of tea, the flavors and toppings. I also got to upgrade for free to the bigger size. It wasn't necessary because they are pretty big but still really sweet of them to offer! If I'm ever in the area, I'll come back again. read more

I've been here many times, and it's getting steadily worse. The tea was always mediocre, the sweetness was always too high (even when ordering low sweetness), but the flavors are fun to play with. To me the redeeming quality was always the honey boba. However, the last two times I went there, the honey boba in my cup was all attached to each other (making one giant chunk) and was undercooked. Go to the one of the many boba places in South Bay. read more

Mediocre (weak) tea, and very little space to sit/hang out. I tried the pu-erh, but it was really flavorless. Which is surprising to me as pu-erh is a pretty bold tea. They have tons of flavored teas, and I think the drinks here are much more about fruity syrups than anything else. Nifty little $2 fridge full of $2 teas, which I guess is a good deal if nothing else! read more

Convenient location on the way up from Monterey. Made exactly the way I remember it years ago. Missed the honey boba!

MY. ABSOLUTE. FAVORITE. Tpumps has always been one of my favorite places to get boba even though it is quite far from where I live. Their pearls are softer and more flavorful than other places which is what I love most. In fact, their prices are under $5 even for their biggest size which is a 32 ounce! My personal favorite is their rose vanilla green milk tea and if i'm feeling something lighter then I'd go for their lychee guava green tea. I definitely would recommend this place if you're in the area, you won't regret it!! read more

Tpumps - rose vanilla green milk tea with boba! - Bubble Tea Near Me - San Jose, California

Awesome drinks and the staff is super friendly. Came here all the way from Gilroy, would definitely recommend!

Went here with a friend and got two drinks and both were watered down, I barely tasted the tea. Also the worst part was that I found a strand of hair in my drink! IT WAS IN THE BOBA, I PULLED THE HAIR OUT OF MY MOUTH AND THE BOBA CAME OUT WITH IT. I would've taken a picture but I was absolutely disgusted that I immediately threw it away. They need to tell their female workers to put their hair up so that this doesn't happen again. I will NEVER go to this location again. read more

I love Tpumps! As I was on my way to the Cupertino location I saw this one and was surprised because I did not know they had another location. This location is definitely more spacious and less busy. Hands down one of my favorite tea places + their honey boba is the best. read more

Raspberry mango vanilla black milk tea from tpumps will always be one of my all time fav boba beverages.

Tpumps will always have a piece of my heart. It's my go to tea place when I need my fix. Their drinks are fun and not too sweet. There's lots to choose from so it can be for anyone. My go to drink is a cookie dough black milk tea, normal sweetness. The only downside is I wish we had one in San Jose. read more

A much bigger Tpumps place than the one on Stevens Creek which has very limited parking. The few things that make Tpumps stand out from the rest of the boba places: 1)*they use TORANI syrup, unlike other boba places that use flavoring syrups in gallons from restaurant suppliers.* 2) you can create lots of combination with up to 3 flavors 3) relatively cheap 4) fast service. One downside is they can't serve 100% unsweet. read more
