Mountain Boba Tea

Loved the matcha tea with almond milk. Will try the popping flavor filled boba next time because I've never had that!

Mountain Boba Tea is located in the busy downtown SF area. Parking is mainly street parking or in one of the parking garages / lots nearby. This is a tiny storefront, just enough room for a couple of people to be in there at the same time. Not much service, ordering is online or through the kiosk inside.I ordered a jasmine milk tea with boba. What I received both looked and tasted like a black tea based milk tea. I asked the employee, if it my drink was jasmine tea based and he told me it was. What a bummer, I did not enjoyed my drink, as much as I wanted to. The only good thing about it was it was only $6 for a decent sized cup, especially for the city.

I really wanted to like this place! It's a cute hole in the wall, has a HUGE menu, and the service by the gentleman behind the counter was great. He explained the menu and was really patient with us as we asked a bunch of questions. But my friends and I had a few issues... for one, the menu implies that you can make anything decaf, which when we actually ordered, is not the case. Instead they just remove the tea from certain menu items. So no decaf tea, just no tea at all... That means the mango passion drink I ordered decaf was just water with syrup? A bit oddMy friends got regular milk tea and a taro milk tea (with no tea). They weren't fans of either. The taro tasted like a melted sweetheart candy - very artificial. We couldn't drink it! My mango passion was just OK but I couldn't get over the fact that it was just water and syrup seemingly? On top of that, they gave very little boba compared to other places I've been to. See the pic for what one order of boba looks, compared to a 3X order...Anyways, maybe you'll have better luck if you stay away from "decaf" options. Hope this place improves and does well!

Very small store front that can be easily passed if driving by car, so look for the Asian Artwork store on the corner as a point of reference.Mt. Boba Tea had a BOGO promo of BOGO so this was my incentive to try it out. While ordering at the counter, I had to ask for the BOGO 3 times, it may have been better to use the kiosk.Orders: Brown Sugar Milk Tea($5.49) with a .25 cent additional for Almond Milk substitute. You could hardly tell it was a milk tea drink & neither could you taste the black tea brew. It was very watered down & a drink I wouldn't order again.Berry Kiwi Bliss ($5.49 with agar jelly included)had a good strawberry taste with a slight hint of Kiwi, the sweetness was normal & maybe slightly iced, but it was still a little sweeter than what I would have preferred. While the price was reasonable, & with all the options of Boba teas, I would not go out of my way to visit.

Great and tasty Boba. Cute little shop. They were fast and the employee was nice. Reasonably priced too

Wow great boba in SAN Francisco and quick service i will definitely come again love this tiny store....

I like that they have a lot options for boba tea! You may not notice the place as it's really small but cute location!

Nice place and nice kids working in there. I got two Thai iced tea, Bogo deal, very nice drinks. Will return for other drinks.
