    Strawberry Cloud Matcha Coco
    Jocelyn C.

    This location of Ume is delish! I loveee their matchas! They're surprisingly smooth and creamy. Love their strawberry matcha and the just came out with the strawberry cloud coco and I love that one even more! The coconut jelly bits on the bottom remind me of a firmer melo melo jelly, soooo goooood. Everything is a bit on the sweet side so make sure to dial down the sugar level during customization.

    HOW THE STORE LOOKS!!

    VERY AWESOME DESIGN! place looks clean and my friend who ordered got their drink very fast :D; worker also helped me with the ZZZ magnet thing!

    [UMe]Coco Mango Jasmine Bloom

    It was a bit busy because it's closer to the holidays but I got my drink pretty quickly. I like how there were two kiosks to order from so you don't get stuck waiting on someone who's taking a long time on the kiosk. I got their coco mango jasmine bloom in the default regular size but didn't realize how small the cups were! I remember when I got their same drink in their Santa Clara location (same drink and same size of a medium) it was in a much bigger cup. So that was disappointing. I wonder if it's because their location is in the mall. I would probably go to their other location since there is another one in Milpitas rather than visiting this one again

    Came by with a friend on Black Friday, so there was a slight wait to order at the kiosks, but it wasn't too long! After ordering, we got our orders in less than 10 min. - Coconut Mango Jasmine Bloom - I got 50% sugar for this, and though the drink itself was enjoyable, I couldn't taste the jasmine at all. - Boba Milk Tea with Mochi - my friend ordered this and liked the mochi! It was still warm when she was drinking it Overall good but nothing mind blowing. I also didn't expect the default medium sizes to be so small - for $7+ per drink after tax, I would've expected a bigger cup. Would be open to trying their other drinks!

    This Ume Tea location still isn't better than other Ume locations, but it's a tiny stand, convenient and good to have inside the Great Mall in Milpitas. I only go for the 5/5 good tasting cloud drink: mango coconut twilight because of the flavors and colors. It's very good to have at all Ume locations. I like it. Experience wasn't as great during grand opening here and to be honest, the wait time nowadays still takes a long 15-20 minutes before getting the drink after ordering around lunch hour on weekdays. I came here a few times throughout the year and there's always a new staff member there. Lines are usually busy. Ume's beverages are a bit small in size and higher priced compared to other places for similar value. Customers are usually happy with their orders though. Cashier was ok this time. At least the lids and packaging are fine now. No leaks or bursts. The mango coconut twilight beverage is worth it for sure.

    I like this place. Their rice yogurt seasonal drink is honestly really good, refreshing, and something you don't see everywhere. They also have a big variety of milk teas , and so many of them are actually yummy, not just pretty on the menu. The drinks taste clean and well balanced, and the shop has good flow. If you haven't tried Ume Milk Tea yet, give it a shot. It's one of those places you end up coming back to. Oh the service is good very friendly the steasy-going

    Cute decor, good variety in the menu with several drink types I like, and I believe the only boba spot inside Great Mall (I do not count those froyo spots as legit boba lol). The Lychee & Watermelon Green Tea was a great thirst quencher for my stroll around the mall and I always appreciate boba spots that allow me to adjust my sugar and ice levels. 4/5 for the drink itself - it meets my needs, but it's not the best I've had in terms of quality of tea flavor. -1 star overall for charging a service fee at a kiosk. This is getting ridiculous.

    Osmanthus Longan Green Tea Slush, Purple Rice Milk Tea
    Alisa B.

    Viral for their surprise cups (aka $3.50 random plushies), this is actually a really solid spot for boba in the plaza! They have a pretty unique menu! Service is quick and there's a few tables inside to sit. Cute pink interior, and prices are reasonable. Drinks I recommend: + Osmanthus Longan Green Tea Slush + Blossom Latte + Purple Rice Milk Tea + Rice Mochi Milk Tea

    mango yogurt and lychee rose
    Shivangi K.

    Nice pit stop for boba in the mall. The drinks were refreshing and a good energy boost from all the shopping. I got the peach oolong milk tea and loved it! The peach flavor complimented the tea well and wasn't overpowering. My friends got the mango yogurt and the lychee rose fruit tea. The mango drink tasted like an indian mango lassi (no complaints here) and the lychee rose was more lychee with a hint of rose which was what we were hoping for anyways. Everyone was happy with their orders! Ordering process itself is at a kiosk. The drinks are pricey and taxed on top of all the drink/toppings costs. So not sure it was worth $8+ but it was good.

    The location is inside great mall so there are crowds and it can get busy and loud. You can order at the counter where they have a paper menu or via the computer. Really enjoy my refreshing Logan osmanthus tea slush with aiyu jelly. I got it 50% sweet and it was still sweet. It may be due to the aiyu jelly. I like the light Logan taste and fragrant osmanthus tea. Hubby also like his mango mango which has a creamy mango taste. He really enjoyed it. I'm sure we will be seeing more of this place.

I'm a creature of habit: since they removed the king jasmine I have been loyal to the longjing milk tea. It's nutty, it's tea forward, it's everything.

Took me a while but I did found some drinks I do like! My faves are the King Guava (limited time) and Coconut Mango Blue/boom drinks!! I've tried their triple matcha... probably my least favorite tbh.. the matcha is not my fav I do like their jasmine milk tea and assam milk tea, those are good too very tea flavor. Can be very busy, but servers are really nice and quick with making the drinks. I recommend ordering ahead online or the app and pick it up when it's ready, just because it's also a really small location so nowhere to sit really. However in the Milpitas location is in this huge plaza with other foods around, so you can walk around and there are couple tables outside! For those who love heytea please recommend a drink for me!!

I will say that the drinks are on the pricier side; everything her ranges from 6 to 8 dollars, even for the smaller-sizd drinks. This spot is a bit small, but it is well-lit and comfortable to sit in. It's clean and stylish inside, and orders are primarily taken through a standing tablet. It's relatively easy to find parking, even though the lot is somewhat busy, especially right after work. The drinks come out pretty quickly and taste really good, though even their "less sweet" options tend to err on the side of being too sweet. I am usually a bit suspect of matcha or hojicha served by places that mostly serve other boba drinks, but I have tried both the matcha and hojicha here, and I liked both. They don't serve food or snacks, which I don't mind! I would absolutely recommend this spot to others; it's a nice experience and their drinks (at least the ones I've tried) are solid.

I ordered their Green Milk Tea with boba and grass jelly - about $7 for a large, which is not that expensive compared to most other competitors for that size. The milk tea tasted so watered down and overly sweeten though, so I was not able to finish drinking it. I went a few stores down for another boba drink.

My only frame of reference nowadays is seeing how much tea cost in Asia. And in Taiwan (the birthplace of boba) I got boba for $3 ;( *sigh oh well I live in one of the most expensive places in the country but also I cannot believe I let myself think this is okay.

Since their boba is made fresh and kept in a warm walk, the boba is always soft and warm and doesn't get hard even when it's put in the drinks. Another thing I like is that they do have drink options that don't have caffeine in it. I especially like coming here during the weekday since they're usually not busy so the drinks come out really fast. On busier days, sometimes they do run out of boba, but they do let you know ahead of time or they give you other options.
