I enjoyed my most recent visit to Boba Bless in San Mateo! The owner there is super friendly and personable while also offering free tea samples. The service is great and it's also a pretty comfortable place to hang out or get work done. There are a couple kiosks you can use to order so the ordering process is pretty simple. I ordered the Large Four Seasons Milk Tea with Boba with total being $7.25 which is pretty standard. The large is truly large though compared to their small size. It's almost doubled in size which makes the upgrade to a large much more worth it. The boba is also great. I liked the soft chewy texture while being just sweet enough. The tea I got at 75% which I think I should have gotten a little lower, but sometimes it's hard to get an idea of how sweet a drink from a boba shop on your first experience. The owner was also nice enough to tell us to let him know if there is any need for sweetness adjustments. I thought the Four Seasons Milk Tea was really tasty and has a really nice strong tea flavor.Would recommend trying this boba shop out!

Having opened last year, Boba Bless is one of the newer offerings in the boba saturated downtown San Mateo area. Located on 3rd close to El Camino, it is a bit removed from most of the hustle and bustle of the busy downtown. Yet this spot remains crazy packed on the weekends with patrons both ordering to-go, as well as dining in and enjoying the many tables and board games available.Although not very big, the shop itself has a very nice, open air concept with bar stool seating on one side facing open windows towards the street. The interior is well lit with both artificial as well as natural lighting. And the shop owners have done a great job decorating the interior to make it inviting yet modern.Service here is very friendly, but wait times are rather long due to the popularity. Highly recommend upgrading to a large, as their regular size is VERY small. There is also very little boba inside a small cup, so it does feel less than satisfying to deplete all the boba balls after a few sips.

Wow service went above and beyond! The server was super nice and offered a variety of samples to try. We sampled roasted oolong and 4 seasons and I think assam? Soooo good! You can really taste the tea. I ended up getting 4 seasons with no sugar and it was so good! :9 the server also gave us Thai tea jello, also really yummy! I like the interior too, pretty cozy. Overall, highly recommend and will be back~

Five stars for friendly service and interior. It was nice to be greeted by a person as I walked in and not a kiosk. Something you don't see all the time anymore, along with seating and tables. This place has a cute cafe interior to sit in, chat, or work. If you're on an introvert kinda day, they do have a kiosk and online ordering if you want to keep to yourself or keep it no contact. Owner shared some background on the mission of their shop, they're out to do good and spread the love. I was offered I think four different samples of fruit milk teas which all tasted great and I'd come back for them, but for the first visit I went for the assam boba milk tea, 25% sweet, which was just right. Boba had perfect chew. Also liked that they offer the smaller (formerly regular!) size and it wasn't watered down or overly milky. Will be back.

12/10 stars !! Walked in and was greeted by the staff (I think owner too) and they were so nice, conversational, and personable. Offered us samples and I loved all of them but had to go with the mango jasmine! The tea was so good... I love when milk tea still tastes like tea and not just milk haha. Not to mention the boba was very fresh and warm. I was a quick in and out order but I saw people peacefully sitting doing laptop and book work, so it looks like it's a nice place to be productive. I especially like the open windows by the bar stools too.I really loved my experience at this place! Will be returning for more if anyone is interested, they are gathering folks in the community and handing out drinks to underserved communities and the homeless on Thanksgiving day. They really stand for good things and I understand the meaning behind Boba Bless.

I've been here twice in the last week and can't say enough about Boba Bless. Let's start with the obvious...the tea is great. I always start with milk teas when I visit a spot and then eventually venture out to other drinks. Twice now, I've stuck with their milk teas because the brew is on point. And then the unobvious...the owner here does so much amazing stuff for the local community and the world. They've traveled to build homes and even install water filtration systems. Locally, they head out to civic center and take care of our homeless population.The owner is real, super friendly, and can tell you about his journey and what he hopes for the future. Another plus? Goodness, their Thai tea jelly is delicious. He had us try some samples and I'm so glad I did. Lots of layers to Boba Bless. Can't help but make this my go to spot every time I'm in the area.A well-deserved 5 solid stars.

Stopped by here on a Saturday, I ordered the Guava fruit tea and my gf ordered the Passion Mango. Their ordering kiosks were down and the owner offered the drinks on the house for the inconvenience. We just paid him the cost in tips instead. Drinks were fantastic, the owner was nice and super friendly and the vibes were great. Its obvious the owner cares about his customers and is passionate about his business.

Wonderful new boba shop that has extremely high quality tea! The shop feels bright yet calming, and there's plenty of space to drink and chat. The staff are all really nice and offered a number of samples to us. I loved that you could actually taste the strength of the tea in the boba, versus a lot of other places tend to water down the tea and focus on other flavors. Will be back to try more of the menu!
