    UMe Sticky Rice Black Milk Tea
    Katrina C.

    The Sticky Rice Black Milk Tea is my favorite and I order it all the time. The person there was so sweet to my daughter and gave her extra toys when she wanted an exchange. The shop is tiny and has no sitting area, but it is worth it for the drink.

    great drinks here! my boba was the perfect chewiness! i didn't get a text until way after my drinks were ready, but luckily i was right outside so i got my drinks as soon as they were ready! probably one of the best boba spots on Burlingame Ave!

    Really yummy drink! It had a good balance of lychee, watermelon, and tea. I was super thirsty and looking for something refreshing. This place caught my eye as I was actually walking to another boba place and I changed my mind to come here. Only thing that I didn't like was the wait time. They only have 2 people working. Even though there were only 3 people standing there and waiting, I realized a lot of people ordered online and did large orders. I'd recommend ordering online way in advance. It would be nice if they had a screen showing when your order was ready or what they're working on. There's not much room to stand on the street and the shop is very very small.

    Was visiting family in SF and wanted to get boba. I have not tried this place so I got the Matcha flavored drink. The matcha flavor was good. The boba was chewy. The self service tablet was easy to navigate and order. Inside the shop is small, so we waited outside. There is no indoor seating. More of a grab and go especially with the outdoor shops in the area.

    Ume has a great variety of drinks but my favorite is the Coco Mango! I love that it's caffeine-free, so I don't have to worry about losing sleep and I love the pomelo inside. I recommend getting 70% sweetness or less since it can be quite sweet. Also FYI, the Burlingame location is usually less crowded than the Millbrae one, so drinks come out faster and both locations also do online order so I recommend doing that if you want to save time. The only downside is that parking isn't free before 6 PM.

    I wanted to give a big thank you to Htet for her great customer service today. She was incredibly sweet, kind, and attentive, which made my visit so much better. I really appreciate her positive attitude! Also, highly recommend the ume boba milk tea it was delicious.

    Tasty as always! Fast service in general on weekdays. On weekends they tend to get popular and there might be a line to order.

    Matcha Melon Coco

    I am a fan of the offerings on Ume's menu and have visited many of their other Bay Area locations. I decided to try their Matcha Melon Coco since Ume's IG post made it look really good, especially since the flavor combination of matcha, watermelon, and coconut is not something you usually find at the various boba shops and franchises. I ordered ahead on their website since I knew the business had minimal space inside and there is usually a line going out the door to order, mind you only 2-3 people will be long enough for the line to reach the door lol. I always have the issue of having incorrect promised times when ordering online; the site often quotes a couple minute wait after the order is placed though I usually end up waiting 5-10 minutes at the minimum depending on how busy the business is at that time. When I got my drink, my first thought was that it did not look close to the drink I saw on IG. The posts portray the drink as a clear red, white, and green drink however mine looked almost completely white with the matcha provided in a separate mini bottle to pour over myself. Although interesting, I didn't quite understand why the matcha wasn't automatically poured on the top of my drink. Also, the IG posts showed the bottle full of matcha but my bottle was only filled halfway. When I finally poured the matcha into my drink and tried it, I noticed the drink was mostly ice and almost tasteless. I'm not sure if my drink was made poorly but it barely had any watermelon chunks either. I asked the barista if increasing the % sweetness would correlate with more watermelon, since this is common practice for fruit matcha lattes at other boba shops, but he said it does not. I have had significantly more issues at this Ume location vs other locations such as Millbrae, one of them being consistency. I think I'll just go to the Millbrae location instead of Burlingame to help ensure my drink is made the same way every time.

    Ume Tea is hands-down my go-to Boba spot whenever I'm craving something fruity -- and by fruity, I mean actual fresh fruit, not just flavoring! One of my absolute favorites is their Watermelon drink -- it's refreshing, light, and hits the spot every single time. I always add crystal boba for that perfect chewy texture (highly recommend!). Another go-to is the Mango Coco, which is tropical perfection in a cup. Now, if anyone from Ume Tea happens to be reading this... I'm going to be a little selfish and say -- please bring back the Avocado Shake with mixed oats! It was one of my all-time favorite drinks (and toppings!), and honestly, I still miss it. Whether you're into classic milk teas or something fresh and fruity, Ume Tea always delivers -- great quality, great flavor, and super friendly staff. It's my little happy place in a cup every time. They also have so many cute brand items in their shop and I love all the pink and bunny vibes.

    Wanted to grab a drink before work and I haven't tried this place yet so here I am. I ordered the pistachio Jasmine delight with 30% sugar and less ice. The drink was okay however, my problem with this place lies more with the service speed... They take a really really long time. It took them 20 minutes to get my drink out and there was no one else waiting before me... Anyways... Try it out if you like. :(

    30% sweet was just enough sweet, I ordered 50% sweet for my boyfriend and he was impressed with how delicious the drink was.

That was an unfortunate discovery. But this bustling area seemed to have a few tea shops at our disposal and seeing that TP Tea was the busiest, I thought to try them. Natural sunlight filled this spacious tea shop as the sun was setting! Though for some reason, they have a fly problem in the center where at least a half dozen flies were circulating. That was a bit of a turn off! But I continued to order through their kiosk anyhow as I was taking this drink to go. The menu is pretty big, so as a first timer, it took a few minutes to figure out what I wanted. I ended up ordering a TREASURE TARO MILK TEA (With taro and pudding). I believe the base for this drink was a Tie Guan Yin tea. It was strong, yet the sweet taro helped mellow the tea's bitterness. I had this drink at zero extra sugar, but I think it could have used just a little more sweetness (10%). I mixed the drink up so the taro would sweeten the tea more, which helped. Service was speedy and I got my drink quickly even with many other customers in the shop. All around, it was a 4/5 experience.

They have a kiosk in which you can order or you can do so at the counter. I got the mango matcha latte w/30% sweetness and lychee jelly. The drink was good but it was lowkey a lil too sweet for 30% in my opinion. But other than that, the drink was enjoyable. Try it out if you like. :)

They also have pretty solid kids options as well as we come here pretty often with the kids they have the Boba milk and couple different flavors such as strawberry Boba milk, which my daughter loves. My favorite is the mango slushy where they blend fresh mangoes with dried mangoes and also put jasmine tea jelly. It is super flavorful taste like very creamy mango and it's just the perfect drink in my opinion. Service is great. The staff is always very friendly and the ambience is nice and theres space for you to sit no tables but just a very long bench. Our go to for Boba in Burlingame.

I usually frequent the Union City location, but I come by this location occasionally since it's close to work. Parking is a bit difficult. Usually, I street park a few blocks down and walk to the shop. The shop is smaller with some seating on the side but no tables. Whenever I order, I do a pickup, so I haven't interacted with the staff here, but my drinks have been pretty good so far. I've tried the Oreo Brulee Boba Milk at 25% sweetness. This drink is very decadent and filling by the time I was halfway through my drink. It's lightly sweet and delicious, but not really something I would pick all the time. I've had the Jasmine Milk Tea at 25% sweetness. This drink has a light floral taste which is good! I will say it's on the milkier side, so the tea flavor is a bit light. The Oolong Milk Tea at 25% sweetness is something I would also get, and I think it has a stronger tea flavor compared to the Jasmine Milk Tea. I recently tried the Hokkaido Milk Tea at 25% sweetness with boba. It has a light butterscotch flavor. It's very creamy, smooth, and decadent with a black tea taste. It's definitely on the milkier side. I did feel that I had a bit too much boba relative to the drink because I had 10-15 boba pearls left by the time I finished. The boba was more on the hard chewy side this time around. There's still so many drink options to try, so I will definitely come back again!
