The Best Bubble Tea in Santa Ana

Feng Cha Teahouse

★★★★★ 4.6 (134) • $$

"Fragrant tea, delicious sweetened drinks and best of all.., the boba texture is PERFECT every time!The foam toppings take milk teas up a notch and sooo good! Also love that we can substitute non caffeinated drinks with sparkling water which I haven't seen other boba shops offer."

ChaPlus Modern Tea Room

★★★★★ 4.6 (89)

"New owners! Great service and drinks! Mango pineapple smoothie: fresh fruit and not too sweet! Perfect for this sunny weather. Vietnamese coffee: not overly sweet and coffee focused. Perfectly balance for my husband. Definitely will be coming back to try different drinks!"

Titan's Pho

★★★★★ 4.7 (50)

"Located in Huntington Beach, this place has a little bit of everything and the entire menu had up to 50% price cuts which we all need to catch a break in prices when it comes to surviving! But hurry this offer is only until September and time has been going fast for sure! This isn't on the Main Street where everything is hectic and crazy, it's a nice quiet area with plenty of metered parking in the front. I ordered the Sesame chicken, egg rolls, popcorn chicken and Peach green tea. Everything was yummy and very affordable for sure. Service was fast and portions were just right. My friends all ordered the pho and they finished it, even ordered to-go."

DK's Donuts of Orange

★★★★☆ 4.3 (969) • $

"Who doesn't love donuts?! It's notoriously bad for us but it's so satisfyingly gooood. A donut is so much more than I thinks! I have the fondest memories of coming here since I was in elementary school! My mom would take my brother and I here early in the morning to pick up a dozen variety of donuts in their signature pink box. So fresh, so delish! Now we can get donuts during anytime of the day (during their working hours)! Love grabbing some of our classic favs: donut holes, glazed old fashion, sugar donuts and maple bars! They got cronuts but I haven't yet tried but will one of these upcoming visits. Other than the sweet stuff we do like their savory as well - especially the breakfast croissants. The staff has been very courteous and helpful. Parking spots are kind of limited in this tiny lil run-down plaza. But if you don't go during the busy times you'll be ok!I didn't even know DK stood for Donut King until I recently watched The Donut King documentary (an immigrant story with a twist) on Netflix. it gave us quite an insight into an overlooked Cambodian community and the touching story of Ted Ngoy's journey of becoming the Donut King. I was surprised to know that I grew up where he started the business here in Orange/Tustin!! Oh, and I don't want to spoil it if you haven't watched it. But I will say the documentary has an excellent moral teaching about the importance of contentment and not falling for temptation. It is a powerful film that is certainly worth the 1.5 hour investment of time."

OMOMO Tea Shoppe

★★★★☆ 4.3 • $$

"omomo is still to this day my favorite boba spot! the omomo matcha and strawberry tornado are always my go to and i love how consistent the quality is irvine location is always busy but have been to both chino hills and brea which are less busy"

Donut Star

★★★★☆ 4.3 (80) • $

"This is one of my two favorites donut shops. The service here is always amazing! The ham and cheese croissants are my favorite and their iced coffee Is a must have! Haven't been in a while because I've been trying to eat too many donuts. lol... but I will definitely recommend this place and will continue to come here. Family owned and managed so you know you can count on having extraordinary service and quality!"

Green Leaves Tea Café

★★★★★ 4.8 (299) • $$

"Sadly, I don't agree with all of the 5-star reviews of the drinks here at Green Leaves. I ordered the Signature Milk Tea ($4.75) and Four Seasons Fruit Tea ($6.49) both with less ice and less sweet. They were just okay. Many Yelpers claim that their Signature Milk Tea has a distinct or strong tea flavor. It sort of does, but it reminds me of the "tea" flavor like the milk tea from Lollicup. Lollicup had a distinct and unique "tea" taste that isn't quite artificial, but it wasn't quite real either. Lollicup definitely used powder tea to make their milk teas and Green Leaves Signature Milk Tea reminds me of that taste. It's not bad at all, but just not what I hoped for it to be. The Four Seasons Fruit Tea was also not a drink to write home about, it didn't hit the spots of a fruit tea like the ones from Yifang or Sunright. Service was friendly! This place has a forest-like décor. It was interesting and too busy for me. I wasn't a fan of the 3% added fee if you choose to use a credit card...."

Fourtea

★★★★★ 4.6 (547) • $$

"One of my go to places for boba milk tea!I always order the Oreo slush- it's basically like a milk shake! So yummy!! I also like the strawberry one. The Thai tea is alright. My husband gets the milk tea drinks. He loves those. Service is always good. No issues there. Ambiance is a typical boba place. The boba is chewy and fresh at Fourtea."

Holy Sheep

★★★★☆ 4.2 (105) • $$

"Holy shiet this Holy Sheep place is cute, has good drinks and soothing music. Came on a Sunday while waiting to pick up our order of chicken. The rose tea had a wonderful refreshing rose flavor that didn't taste artificial. The Vietnamese coffee was nice and strong. Service was good. Restroom is very clean."

HNTea Organic Tea House

★★★★☆ 4.4 (159) • $$

"Please bring back the Longjin cheese cap tea!I discovered it just last week and really loved it. It is delicious and is the low caffeine tea option I need. I was planning come back long term just for this drink. But when I was ordering again today I had the shocking discovery that it's no longer on the menu. This would have been a five star review for the Longjin tea alone. I would highly recommend others to try the Longjin tea if/when it is back for it strikes a perfect balance of tea flavor, bouquet and caffeine."

Niftea Cafe & Donuts

★★★☆☆ 3 (112) • $$

"First time coming here and good service. They have a ton of donut options but I opted to try one of their breakfast sandwiches instead. I ordered a saisage, egg, and cheese croissant sandwich. When I received it, I was pleasantly surprised at how large it was! The taste was what you would expect; and while the croissant was oily, it wasn't as greasy as you would think (which is a plus!). Price was $6.50, as stated on their menu. Looks like tax is included in the prices you see (double plus!).The interior is your typical mom-and-pop donut shop. They have an atm machine inside beside a little crane game. They also sell other small snacks and a variety of cold beverages. While there aren't any tables inside, they do have bench seating. Overall, I'd come again."

Boba Flip

★★★★★ 4.8 (208) • $$

"The first time I tried this place was last year when they first opened up and the owner was very welcoming. My second visit was just earlier today and the staff member working the front was super welcoming and provided exceptional service.I've had their Thai Tea Swirl, Hokkaido Milk Tea, and Assam Black Milk Tea. All drinks exceeded expectations and the boba had a great texture; not too soft and not too firm either. It's not your typical boba shop with premium teas and signature drinks but still way better than Ding Tea for example. This mom & pop boba shop was well needed in the Fullerton/Brea area. Come get your drinks here and you won't be disappointed!"

Katsubo Tea

★★★★☆ 4.3 (200) • $$

"Stopped by here since I was in the plaza running errands and was craving milk tea. Ordered: - Katsubo Sugar: made no adjustments, decent, and found the mixed boba to be a new twist!- Egg Pudding Sugar (ordered with 50% sugar): good; still pretty sweet but when I was getting towards the end of the drink - then all I tasted was unflavored milk. ** I'm also knocking points since the boba was pretty firm and hard to chew ** This place does have a lot of potential. The male staff member was friendly and brought out our drinks pretty fast. My friend and I decided to sit down to enjoy our drinks. There is minimal seating, minimal décor, but music is played throughout. There was a pretty good stream of customers coming through the door, so I'm guessing there must be some heavy hitters on their menu. I think I'm going to stick with their bestsellers the next time."

Sunright Tea Studio

★★★★☆ 4.3 (292) • $$

"This is my second time ordering from sunright tea studio. The first time I ordered from this tea studio, I went with the sun right drink. That drink was very fruity and delicious, but this time I was looking for a different flavor.This time I ordered the Thai milk tea with oat milk and black Boba. I normally love Thai tea drinks, so I thought I'd give this one a try. The Thai flavor was really smooth, and it went really well with the oat milk. I enjoyed the black Boba inside the drink. Overall, I enjoyed this drink more than the sun right fruit tea. I would order the Thai milk tea again. 10/10Thai milk tea Oat milkBlack boba"

BenGong's Tea - Garden Grove

★★★★☆ 4.1 (41)

"Update: I tried their mango sago pomelo and it's even better than the Peach Oolong tea!! That's our go to drink now. It's like drinking dessert in a cup. It's the only drink I'm willing to pay almost $7 for, literally twice a week! They still have their 10% off promotion!!!"

Chaplus Anaheim

★★★★☆ 3.7 (153) • $$

"Stopped in for a quick snack before a concert at the HOB and was pleasantly surprised! Quality of the tea was perfect, not too sweet. The staff were helpful and kind when we were asking questions about the bubble waffle. And the bubble waffle itself (we got Nutella and strawberry) was delicious! I've had soggy ones at other places and the texture here was totally perfect. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with a nice taste. It was also a good spot to sit around and people watch hahaWe'll definitely come back!"

Wushiland Boba

★★★★☆ 4.4 (29)

"I love the four seasons tea! Not too sweet and I get less topping of mini pearls. Definitely would come back and try other drinks!"

Leaf N Cream

★★★★☆ 4.1 (908) • $$

"A very cute and modern boba shop in Tustin with specialty drinks and even acai bowls! They have Wi-Fi and a few tables where you can enjoy your boba or do work. I was stuck picking a drink because everything looked so good, but I got the Rose Vanilla Milk Tea and would 100% get this again. It was the perfect sweetness, and the custard pudding was the icing on the cake, which made the drink amazing. I got the drink with 75% sweetness but would get 50% next time. Parking was easy, and there were plenty of available spots. I would come back and recommend this place to anyone."

Chaplus Modern Tea Room

★★★★★ 4.7 (6)

"Stopped by to get some Boba and ended up ordering the waffle. I'm very picky with boba and hands down this is the top 5 on my list now. The waffle is also amazing. The service was very fast and the vibe was good."

naricha tea & coffee

★★★★☆ 4.3 (38)

"Went to check out Yoo's Place for lunch and couldn't help but notice the absolute cuteness of naricha next door!Located in Irvine, naricha is a SUPER adorable tea shop! So many cute decorations and backgrounds to take pictures in front of. Service was average and the selection of drinks was pretty standard in selection and taste. Not the winner here was the Dubai strawberries in a cup- it was HEAVENLY!!! It's about $15 and it was just so, so delicious! Do NOT hesitate to order this if it's available when you're here!Definitely a must for anytime looking for a super cute place to take instagrammable photos and a sweet treat!"

Da Vien Coffee

★★★★★ 4.7 (128) • $$

"Da Vien coffee hits Beach Blvd in the old Lees building. They serve top knotch coffee and tea drinks with a unique twist. The Banana latte is a creamy delight. A nice combination of ice, milk, espresso and a banana cream froth. I also tried their regular iced coffee which had a huge kick in it which jump started my day.They open really early and close late. The drive thru moves quickly. A little birdie told me there will be another location closer to me in Cypress."

Ding Tea - Anaheim Hills

★★★★☆ 4.1 (75) • $

"This location has corrected the issue without hesitating. My family enjoys this friendly atmosphere. Thank you!"

Da Vien Coffee

★★★★★ 4.6 (945) • $$

"As if 6 cream tops weren't enough, Da Vien came out with banana cream!It reminded me exactly of banana pudding and it's so creamy that you can pretty much eat it by the spoonful. There's no artificial flavor and it's available for matcha and coffee lovers alike.If that's not your cup of tea, don't hold back on trying any of the other cream tops. My favorites are matcha and black sesame but you can't go wrong with any."

Urban Location Boba Tea House

★★★★☆ 4 (159) • $$

"My little niece and I wanted boba so I placed an online order here and had Grubhub delivered. Service was within a good time frame from when I placed my order about 30 minutes. We both got the jasmine milk tea with boba and rainbow jelly. Boba was a little hard but the rainbow jelly was perfect. The drink itself was a bit too sweet for me I should had put half sweet but my little niece loved it.Overall, not bad and planning to try out their other drinks they carry here."

Titan's Pho Asian Bistro

★★★★☆ 4.1 (289) • $$

"The staff here are always so friendly and helpful. This is one of my favorite spots for Pho. The rare beef pho is my favorite and a frequent purchase of mine. The shrimp spring rolls and cream cheese and avocado wontons are another couple of items that I LOVE. Highly recommend if you want quick service with quality food!"

CaliTea Organic Coffee & Tea

★★★★★ 4.5 (132) • $$

"Drinks taste fresh and can be easily be modified for sweetness and alternative milks. I'm a fan of their milk teas (large selection of tea flavors) and their fruit slushes. Service is always spot on and quick!"

Krak Boba Anaheim Hills

★★★★★ 4.6 (44)

"Friendly service and their Taro Crush is my absolute favorite! Perfectly balanced flavors every time. Highly recommend."

Pink Pig Boba & Pizza

★★★★☆ 4 (98)

"Ok I go to Disneyland about 3 times a year always see this place! My daughter loves boba and we always say ok next time we will go! We finally went!!! And it was amazing!!! The service was fast and easy. She loved her boba. The pizza was crisp and so d-lish...what a great experience we will come back on our next visit!"

Ma Juicy

★★★★☆ 4.3 (143) • $$

"I love Ma Juicy! I have been coming here since November 2024 when their Brookhurst/ Garden Grove Blvd location closed due to fire damage. This place is very unique and carries a modernized version of a drink I grew up with: pennywort or rau má in Vietnamese. The drinks are delicious and refreshing, and you can customize the ice and sugar level to your liking. Pennywort is a great medicinal herb which helps detoxify the liver, brighten your skin, help you sleep, and reduce stress. I come here almost weekly, and I feel refreshed every time!My favorite drink is the #12- pennywort juice/ube combination with coconut milk, pandan jelly, and chia seed jelly. I also like the #6- pennywort juice/mung bean with coconut milk, pandan jelly, and chia seed jelly. I have also had the P2- large 24 oz pennywort juice. They also sell wintermelon tea with chia seed jelly which is delicious as well. I would like to try their soursop and chrysanthemum tea in the future. They also have a sugar cane and fruit juice mix available. There is seating inside and it is a good place to study or catch up with friends. Stay thirsty!"

Bay Poke & Tea House

★★★★☆ 3.7 (300) • $$

"This is my favorite Poke spot right by my house! They serve up generous portions of fresh seafood and delicious toppings. I recommend ordering ahead for a quick and easy pick-up. They always seem to be busy, and it's easy to understand why! Plus, their boba drinks are super yummy too!"

Tea Maru - Housemade Boba

★★★★☆ 3.6 (76) • $$

"Located in apartment complex, it is a little hidden. The store is in the front facing the main street. Drinks are made really quick. Cars can be parked on the rear. Highlights of the menu:1. Maru milk with pudding2. Tea maru latte3. Uji matcha cheese foam4. Peach green tea - seasonal white peach series5. Taro fluffy matcha"

4Seasons Tea Cafe

★★★★★ 4.6 (142) • $

"I really love this place to get my regular matcha latte drink!I am a matcha lover and the worker recommended that I try their iced blueberry matcha latte!I love how they use good quality matcha powder and good quality milk!I also tried their strawberry matcha latte and I think it's so amazing!I also love the cute decor and games that they have.I love sitting here to get my drinks and do a bit of work and relax here! A great place to study or catch up with friends. Service is also great, friendly workers and fast service!I love talking to the owner here she's very nice and sweet. Definitely coming back here as a regular customer!"

Sweet Boba Co.

★★★★☆ 4.3 (222) • $$

"This delicious drink makes my taste buds have a mouthwatering explosion hahaha sorry if it's too graphic.. it is honestly such a yummy drink the whole combination is delicious. The inside of the store is clean and unkept. I love their flowered dangling from the ceiling. The cashier was helpful and patient while we were making our selection."

Taty's Specialty Coffee & Tea

★★★★★ 4.6 (139) • $$

"Nothing more to say than I am OBSESSED with the Banana Matcha. If you like more of a sweet matcha, 100% sweetness is perfect. It is not too sweet nor does it have an artificial banana taste! I would come back to try other matcha lattes they have!"

Da Vien Coffee

★★★★★ 4.5 • $

"I've been a long-time fan of Da Vien and have been to both locations! They have always had great matcha and coffee drinks, and favorite is the black sesame latte! Service is always friendly and drinks come out fast. At this location, I was able to order using the self-serve kiosk and it was simple to use."
