I love Yin Yang Tea! When you walk in, you'll see an adorable post-it wall that seems to be from customers, and you will always be greeted by staff! The times I've been here, I've usually seen the same man who never fails to ask if I have any questions and if I wanted something specific, which is pretty cool as I never came across a tea shop that did that! Drinks gotten: -ube matcha -salted vietnamese coffee -taro milk tea w/popping boba -sunset passion w/ boba All of these drinks have been delicious so far! My favorite so far has been the ube matcha (so creamy!!) I definitely will continue coming back as they have so much variety in loose leaf blends, speciality flavors (what do you mean you have a blended neopolitan and Pina colada), and premium oolong tea! P.s their 3 for $10 deal on spam masubi/big cookie/ snacks is so fun! Their cookies have been delicious and I love how big they are, and the chips are a good salty option to eat with your tea. read more

This place is a MUST for you guys to give a try. It is a small business where owner makes drink for you. The drinks are so tasty and price is quite competitive. My husband order vietnamese coffee, it came out great, also nicely He gets the upgrade as part of promotion that day. My yogurt slush so tasty and sour in good way, got free 1 topping. Decor is quite oriental classic and there're many seating area whether by sofa or plastic chairs to hang around. And also there's board game provided ;) read more

You can ask for a post it to add to their wall. Parking- Plenty read more

Yin Yang Tea - A person holds a cup of bubble tea from YIN YANG TEA in front of a bulletin board filled with colorful notes and papers. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Pasadena, California

Yin Yang Tea has a wide selection of milk teas and slushies. They do a really nice job customizing drinks to your desired sweetness and they do it dairy free! My usual orders include: Vietnamese coffee, taro milk tea, cookies & crème, and jasmine milk tea. I've never been disappointed. The staff are kind and helpful, genuinely nice folks. The place is small, quiet, and family friendly. Most people get their drinks to go, but you can get cozy at a table and play one of the many board games they provide. Finally, there's a place to get good boba in NW Pasadena! I hope they're here to stay! read more

I was in the area and needed a boba milk tea for the road to drive back to SF Valley and found this place. I wanted to go somewhere that has its own parking lot and dont want to have to go to downtown Pasadena. The place was empty when I got here and the guy working there asked if I knew what I wanted. Then he asked if it was my first time there which I said it was. I asked for a regular or house milk tea to which he said they have a regular milk tea. Then I saw on the menu that they have winter melon and I asked if I can change my order ti that. He made it for me and told me if I don't like it, he can make me something else. As soon as I took a sip....I liked it. It reminds me of a familiar taste but I dont know what though. I got it in 50% sweet but its still a little sweet for me. The price is reasonable. I will be back if I am in the area. Kudos to the guy working there today in the early evening. read more

There were plenty of parkings. The service was great. But not having a dairy option is insane to me. I ordered the black tea for my friend and Vietnamese coffee for me to go. I didn't like the Vietnamese coffee since she put a nondairy choice. It tasted horrible. I usually love the Vietnamese coffee but the nondairy milk made it taste rather strange not in a good way. I might come back for ice tea or something but not for Vietnamese coffee. read more

Yin Yang Tea - Vietnamese coffee and Black Iced Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Pasadena, California

Since it's national Bubble Tea day, I decided to try a new Boba spot in my area. I picked my kids up from school and headed over. As soon as we opened the door, the girl working yelled out at me saying that she is not taking any more customers and that she is backed up. Mind you there were five people inside. She then continued to say something under her breath and when I asked her what she said, she told me to leave and goodbye, and to complain to her manager about her. I was in complete shock. The fact that there were other patrons and she continued to show her ass in front of them is beyond me. I have never in my entire life encountered someone more rude and miserable than this girl. Memo to the owner, if I were you, I would try to hire friendly people to work at your establishment. I would hate for you guys to have a bad reputation because of one miserable employee. Needless to say, I will continue to frequent other local boba spots with better customer service. read more

Amazing! Hole in the wall place. It's in the Food 4 Leas shopping center by all of the other food places and beauty supply. You have to actively look for it. It's very clean! And it's really fun. They have a section for board games if you want to play while you enjoy your boba. They have a variety of flavors. And the service is super quick!!! Like our orders took less than five minutes with just one person behind the counter. I got the brown sugar milk tea with boba (you can also choose what fillings you want, including the type of boba!) and my son got the Thai iced tea with boba. Very filling! I love the decor and the service on top. I wish I could give this 10 stars. Highly recommend! read more

Trying a new style for the review: Perks: Easy Parking, Free WiFi, and strong AC so its nice for a hot summer day (which we have been seeing a lot of) Downsides: No Public Bathroom so you are limited in the amount of time you can spend there and only 4 tables I tried the Passion Fruit Jasmine Tea (50% sweet) with the aiyu jelly and the seasonal Basil Herbal Tea. I liked that it included 1 free topping with the drink but the sweetness was overpowering for the Passion Fruit Tea. The worker was nice enough to dilute the drink out further. I think their flavors are created using the flavored syrup pumps. Overall, I think this is a middle of the road type boba place but can offer a nice place to get some work / studying done read more

Came on a Saturday and ordered the Brown Sugar Milk Tea with Boba. The drink was solid and the boba was very chewy. The drink was a bit too sweet for my liking but I can't complain as I didn't adjust the sweetness - I'd opt for 75% next time. Was pleasantly surprised at the quality as the shop was located in an unassuming strip mall. They have plenty of options to choose from. Prices are average, and they have double deals which is around $1 off for buying 2 drinks in the same category. The workers are quick and friendly. There are lots of tables inside to stay and hang out, though a downside is that they don't have restrooms available (you can go to Food4Less). read more

I love yin yang tea. I have only been to the location in Pasadena and i haven't had a bad experience! My teas are so yummy and i love that they have so many different flavors to pick and try. The space is big and welcoming. The walls are decorated with drawings on sticky notes, it's super cute. They have different deals Monday through Friday and if you put your number in you can accumulate points and eventually get a free drink! Give this place a try. read more

This simple yet delicious boba place is a refreshing spot to hit up on a hot day! Inside is a brightly lit, minimal area with lots of great drinks to choose from. They often have daily specials that are discounted - for example, Thai Tea Tuesdays. You can also get 10% off by checking in on Yelp. I went here on a Tuesday afternoon and there was no wait, no fuss, just a girl grabbing a couple drinks (me) and I was in and out in less than 10 minutes. The worker who helped me was very friendly and rang up my discounts no problem. Though I was in a rush and drank my strawberry fruit tea elsewhere (so good! Sweet and refreshing, not too syrupy), I could easily imagine spending an hour or two inside just sipping leisurely. The vibe is relaxing and pleasant. If I lived in SoCal, I would come here all the time! read more

I did not know this place existed ! It is so delicious! A must try in Pasadena . Can never go wrong with boba

Fun to go great taste some fun games we recommend this place . They also have some snacks super yummy

Pretty good boba! Many of their drinks are on the sweeter side so I usually get 50% sweet. Not my favorite boba spot but I love the convenience of their location and hours. read more

I found this cafe when I was looking for a place to study, so excited to finally have a boba option north of the 210! (Pasadena locals, you'll understand ) . With the Yelp Check-In 20% off, my Jasmine Milk tea with boba came out to be $4.25. There are steeped milk tea and fruit tea options; the standard menu that one would expect. At half-sweet, the tea was strong, but the boba lacked sweetness and wasn't chewy enough. Overall, a decent drink that satisfies the craving. Don't think they have any one specialty drink just yet. While I was sitting at the cafe, a lot of people ordered Thai tea, so will try it next time! Yin Yang Tea is located in the Food 4 Less plaza in the corner, so hooray for the parking lot! There isn't much signage since it's in its soft opening phase, so it might be easy to miss. The store wasn't too busy, but there definitely was a steady flow of customers. Their wifi wasn't set up yet, according to their Yelp page it'll be coming soon. The tables inside were fast food restaurant-style booths, so they weren't super comfortable. It definitely isn't an "aesthetic" boba shop, but a nice and quiet place to get work done. Also, on the menu, they have some $8-$9 buy-2 deals. Will be back if I'm looking for a quick milk tea fix in the area! read more

This is a new boba spot that recently opened up. It's located in the same plaza as Food 4 Less, and it was easy to find parking. It was very quiet when i went. Check in on Yelp to get a 20% off. There are also other deals like the Double Deals, two drinks for a price. I got the Signature Milk Tea, which includes black milk tea, boba, and pudding. Loved the pudding. The boba was good but I do prefer softer boba. Never forget to request less ice! I forgot and got a huge chunk of ice. (They should make it smaller ice.) I spent a lot of time trying to get to the boba that was stuck at the bottom and within the ice. read more

#101 in my Teaholic Diaries. I used postmates to order from Yin Yang Tea one night after I had already changed into my pajamas, and was unmotivated to change back. Haha. Anyways, I tried their golden milk tea and strawberry milk tea. The golden milk tea tasted chalky, while the strawberry milk tea had that artificial and borderline medicinal taste. Suffice to say, I didn't care for either drink and won't be ordering from here again. ****************** My Ratings: 1 Star: Terrible; just thinking about it makes me angry. 2 Stars: Wasn't a fan so Not likely to return. 3 Stars: Meh. Average. Might return if others drag me. 4 Stars: Yum! Likely to return. 5 Stars: Amazing! Would plan my day around it. read more

Drinks are solid, boba had the right chew to it, and the selection is good. It's the kind of place you can take anyone and they'll find something they'll like. I like that parking is easy and when I have to study, there's usually always tables. It's also very clean and the drinks come out fast. There's a fun wall of post-it notes that customers contribute to with inspirational, funny, and silly notes and drawings. Downside is there is no bathroom so can only see myself doing a medium study session here Part of my study spot rotation and a good choice when you're in the area! read more

Yin Yang Tea is nestled in the corner of a large plaza, which also means that parking is not a chore at night. I ordered a large Thai Tea with 50% sugar, and I must admit that this is the first time where 50% was not sweet enough! Usually, I'm complaining that 50% sugar is the "best" level for most places, but their much lighter on the sugar here. The Thai tea itself didn't taste too delicious, and it was quite watery... Perhaps this is not the go-to drink, though it is one of their featured ones for a Tuesday "Double Deals" night. read more

Love love love Yin Yang tea, my favorites are: - Okinawa tea with boba(super recommend) - Vietnamese coffee with sea salt cream - Strawberry matcha(no piping pearls though, tried it once and was way too sweet, tasted okay with boba) - Taro smoothie with boba - Passion fruit jasmine tea with boba I decided to try this place out due to the proximity to where I live and was pleasantly surprised to say the least. I come here at least once a week now, and absolutely love it. Highly recommend if you're in the area. read more

Our family LOVE LOVE LOVE this place. We usually drive out to Santa Ana or an Arcadia for some good milk tea or Little Tokyo and Ktown when we are in LA but we no longer do ever since discovering Ying Yang Tea! Their bobas and ingredients are always fresh and they always have everything in stock even when it's busy. They also offer VARIETY of options to choose from milk tea to slushy to fruit teas and more. Their service is amazing and they are always welcoming. Their space is clean and spacious and we usually see only one staff out but they are efficient and fast! Also very very accommodating and will work with substitutions which is bonus brownie points for a lactose intolerant person like me. My personal go to is taro anything and one cold day back in December, out of curiosity I asked if I can have any of the drinks warm and they said pick a drink and they will make it happen. I asked for warm taro milk tea and my life hasn't been the same since. I just got a text from them for a special for the heat wave this week so I will be there once again this week it seems. read more

Tucked in a little plaza north of Lake Ave, there's a new boba shop in town. The lady serving me was real nice and after handing me my drink, she told me to try the drink first and let her know if I wanted to adjust the sweetness! She was so kind! There's currently three two seaters tables available so seating is limited. But they do have open space so maybe that will change! Overall a really positive experience. read more

Nice little spot, it used to be a Subway, and they took over, so the layout may seem familiar when you're inside. It's still a work in process, so you may not find tables and chairs, but if you're just looking for something to go, this is a great spot. I would recommend the strawberry matcha, as it is a little sweet but not overwhelming, sweet It is located in the corner next to Pizza Hut and Maki Yaki Staff is very friendly and welcoming! read more

This is my first time trying this place out and they been open since May 2023. We were greeted when we walked in which told me they have great customer service in general. The interior is very open and big but theres only like 4 or 5 tables for customers to sit at. There was only one or 2 workers there and the lady that helped me was very nice in helping to recommend a drink since it was my first time. I ordered the okinawa (honey green milk tea) with lychee and boba and this might be my new favorite drink. The boba was perfect in texture and wasnt too hard or too soft and the lychee jelly was really a good mix with the drink and boba but just a heads up when they put the toppings they put A LOT like it felt like the toppings were growing in the cup but it was definitely worth the price. I got it with 50% sugar and it was perfect sweetness level. There isnt a lot of boba places in this part of Pasadena but if youre in the area and is one whos craving boba i do highly recommend this place. read more
