District Tea

Service is a little slow, but the picnic deal is such a good!Also, it's the best proper hot Hong Kong style milk tea I've had in a while.Their signage is nearly invisible from the street . I had no idea they were there. I had walked past them dozens of times before realizing there was boba so close by!

This Boba spot has been on my list for sometime so when my friends came into the city we came here for some Boba and snacks. The popcorn chicken was on point, nice and hot. We ordered the iced Grass jelly, hot sweet potato latte, and hot Hojicha tea crema. The ice grass jelly was pretty tasty although quite sweet even with low sugar we were impressed with the sweet potato latte. It was really good, slightly sweet but not overpowering. Even though I did not get the Hojicha with milk, the salted caramel cream was strong enough to taste like milk tea. The service was quick. The place was to go only, no table nothing. It was cold outside, so we actually ate by the counter. I think it would be nice to have some standing tables available. Everything was great, but for almost 7 dollars a drink for a tiny cup was not worth it. We strongly feel like the drinks with that price should be automatically the large.

Very solid place to to fulfill your boba or fun drink craving! It was a cold rainy night and we wanted something warm to drink and decided to pop in and peruse the menu. A hot HK milk tea sounded like a solid choice. It turned out to be the perfect thing to warm us up while we walked around the Mission. Not too sweet and had a strong tea taste but not bitter at all. Their in store ordering system was out of order so we ordered with the cashier. While waiting for my drink, I was surprised to see they had such an extensive drink and food menu from onigiris to Korean corn dogs! Seems like they have a little something for everyone. Service was friendly and fast. Would 100% come back again.

District Tea is a ~5 min walk from the 16th Street Mission BART station. My friend and I were craving boba, but there were very few options around the area so we decided to try this one. We ordered using the kiosk inside. I tried the Mung Bean Latte. The drink was on the pricier side ($6.50 for a 16 oz iced drink + $0.85 for boba). My drink was a little grainy for my preference, but I can look past it considering that it had real blended mung bean and fresh pandan leaves. The boba pearls were soft and chewy. Overall, the drink was okay...but considering the price and portion size, District Tea would not be my first pick for boba. However, they had interesting menu offerings that you wouldn't see at your typical boba shop (i.e., mangonadas), which might be worth trying!

Decided to try this out from Yelp Instagram account recommendation. We got the golden oolong milk tea with grass jelly and mangonada. The service was a bit slower but there was only one worker. The location is small but does not look cramped and is very welcoming

Great spot for boba in the Mission! The service was wonderful - we felt well taken care of in the shop. The popcorn chicken was SO good and the spicy powder that came with it. The egg salad sandwich was also done well - soft bread and very flavorful. We both got lychee based teas and it came with bits of lychee which is a nice touch (you don't get this at many spots). The spot is mini and meant for To-Go. We wanted to try the spam musubi but they were out so we are very excited to return again! Highly recommend!

Stopped by District Tea after my sister had recommended it to me and I think it's great for tea lovers! I tried their peach oolong tea easy sweet with a few toppings and I thought it was wonderfully tea forward. The peach flavor tastes like real fruit, nothing artificial or powdery. It was super refreshing and the perfect pick me up. I ordered ahead online and my drinks were ready on time. While there's no seating, it's a great grab and go spot. Parking can be a bit tricky since the street is busy, but it's worth it. Highly recommend stopping by!

I'm glad I got to try this place! I found there 25-30% sweet pretty good and their normal sweetness were a bit much. The drinks were great the tea wasn't too strong and it wasn't watery.The sandwiches were worth the wait a bit pricy but really good.They have some picnic bundles is would go back for as well with the park near by.FYI no sitting inside and parking is kinda hard.

I visited in the summer. For starters, I ordered a mason jar mug because I'm a collector for reusable boba cups and they skipped it entirely. I had to wait a few minutes to even get the attention of the worker and tell it to them, to which they simply looked at the order and said "oh you did" and handed me one. No apology, no emotion, as if I was being told "here you go, get out of here." I can understand a long, busy day or whatever, but stuff like this definitely leaves an impression.Hong Kong Milk Tea with Boba - boba was alright, a bit too soft as if overcooked. Not a lot of flavor with the boba either. Flavor wise, the boba was average and on par with a lot of boba here. Tea was pretty strong and powerful in the drink. I threw away the cup with some boba left but finished the drink so I loved the tea but would skip the boba.That being said, I can understand one-off experiences so I figure there's potential to revisit in the future and see if I was just unlucky.

Small unassuming shop on Mission. Just a window to order, but no seating. Service is quick. Our drinks tasted a little watery and I would not seek this out again. It was just okay...
