T4

T4 has always been one of my favorite spots to grab boba and snacks! Snacks and drinks are always made fresh. I always get their oolong milk tea with grass jelly. Their other drinks are great as well. You can't go wrong with any of their drinks or snacks here. There is a self ordering kiosk at this location to make ordering easy. I have been to many T4 locations and have found that they differ slightly at each location. This location does not have small boba but everything is about the same. Parking here can be tricky because this store is located in a very busy area with other boba spots and restaurants.

Man, this T4 location in Millbrae is just not it. I thought I was being harsh giving this place 2 stars a couple years ago and I came back willing to give it another chance, but it turned out to be a mistake. I've never dropped a rating from 2 stars to 1 star, but here we are. The experience was all bad from drink quality to the outdated interior to the lack of customer service. You order on the kiosks now which means service is minimal, but the service even when you are being served the drinks isn't friendly. The drinks are either watery and bland or too sweet.What my family and I ordered:- Almond Milk Tea ($6.55 for a Large with Pearls)- Taro Pearl Milk Tea ($6.80 for a Large)Where do I even begin. The "Almond Milk Tea" just left me speechless. It wasn't an Almond Milk Tea at all. It was straight up an Earl Grey pure tea and had no Almond flavor at all. The Earl Grey flavor was watery and gross. I ended up tossing it and didn't even bother getting a replacement because I was given the Taro Pearl Milk Tea, but that ended up being horrible too.The Taro Pearl Milk Tea you can see all the powder on the bottom of the cup. I saw the team member pouring in 6 scoops of Taro Powder which left me shook because when I made Taro Milk Teas in the past I definitely did not add that many scoops. That is an absurd amount of sweetness in the powder already. Even with 30% sweetness it tasted like it was extra sweetness. It was so bad that I drank 1/4 of the drink and tossed it. The boba pearls are actually not bad and have a nice chewy texture, but if the drinks itself are such bad quality then it doesn't matter any ways.Millbrae has some decent options for boba, but this is one I would personally avoid this shop because there is an issue with the quality of the drinks and just fails at every aspect that makes a boba shop good.To add insult to injury I also had the runs and had to use the toilet immediately after drinking the Taro Milk Tea...

We were craving popcorn chicken to go along with the boba that we purchased from a nearby shop. The popcorn chicken was solid and satisfied our cravings. The basil complemented the chicken well. There is also pepper and salt available which you can use to season the popcorn chicken to your preference. Overall, I find that popcorn chicken is best consumed while its hot and fresh so try to eat it inside the restaurant or nearby. There's a good amount of tables and seating available inside to enjoy your food/drinks.

Easy to order, kiosks are user friendly. Super nice, very welcoming. Drinks and food are delicious.

They had me with the Korean fried chicken sign.Unfortunately, the chicken was horrible and tasted like something you could have bought at the frozen food section of your local grocery store for double the price.There's nothing like bland semi fried chicken. The sauce on the side was some weird sweet and spicy crap that's worse than Wendy's. You've been warned, don't buy the chicken here.

I mainly come here for the plain milk boba tea and basil popcorn chicken because the other beverages and snack items I've tried have been disappointing. The KFC taco and beef rice plate are plain gross sorry. Customer service is okay it's mostly young people working here.

Why do I have to give this business my phone number just so I can order a milk tea?! This was through their ordering kiosk since the employees weren't taking orders through the regular cashier. This is ridiculous.

A bag is always a good thing. I was curious to taste this Lemon Smoothie, just as my husband was curious to change his regular choice of classic Black Tea with Milk to Thai Milk Tea. What can I say after the first sip is that my drink was super fresh and, well, lemony - and I loved it. My husband was also pleased and said he would remember this tea and try it occasionally instead of his regular option. At this point, it's hard for me to review this place because, unfortunately, while we enjoyed our drinks, I can't say that I'd prefer to go here over my other main places. However, since there are more interesting options at T4, as well as sitting inside the place - I think we might go here again (plus I approve of the bonus system where the tenth drink goes as a gift).

The tea here is pretty mediocre and tastes watery and not strong at all. Less ice = less drink too. The only redeeming factor is that they allow you to split cup for no charge. This place is always overrun with teenagers and feels a little dirty, especially the shelf with all the games.

Your average boba shop, spacious without much decor. I got the passionfruit slush and it was fine.
