Very good milk tea and tea. Love it and there is free sample to try. Nice service. But no seat inside.

This is a to go order place. They always have free samples of some crazy mix, but let me say, they're usually delicious. They have hot and cold drinks. In a hurry? They have a selection of pre-made drinks for$2.50 w/no ice and regular sweet. Staff is always friendly and helpful. They usually have a line, but don't let the long line scare you away. They're quick!!

Love that service is set up so customers are outside and staff inside wear masks. Great and efficient system where the customer orders, gives a name and waits outdoors until their name is called. Great variety of flavors. I got black iced tea passion fruit flavor. Great taste and refreshing. Parking lot has plenty of spots.

The employees are friendly, the tea and boba tastes delicious, and they have lots of flavor options and ways to customize your tea! You’re able to add up to three flavors to your tea, so there’s lots of unique combinations you can have. There’s also a really nice rewards program where you can have every 10th drink you order be free, so it’s very convenient if you come here often!

Edit: Seems like they reversed their lids back to the old ones! Been a big fan of tpumps for a long time - unfortunately, their new lids are a massive inconvenience, and significantly hurt the experience. For those unaware, they used to use the standard “sealed” plastic wrap over cups. However, in the past couple months, they’ve switched to a hard plastic lid, similar to what you might find when getting soda at McDonalds. Moreover, they *continue to use soft plastic cups*, unlike the hard ones typically paired with these cups. The combination of these things means that any slight squeeze, any slight jostle, and the drink itself spills out of the cup (you can see an example in the photo). Given that this is a sugary drink, this makes the overall experience much more unpleasant, typically resulting in sticky fingers or other spillage (like in your car cupholder…) I can’t imagine I’m the only one who’s had this issue, given that 1. They have a large sign telling you to not flip your drink over (not an issue with the old kids), and 2. There was a large spill outside, undoubtedly because somebody dropped their drink (also not an issue with the old lids). Apologies for the essay, but it’s pretty disappointing to have a place you’ve gone to for years substantially degrade their experience. Unless you’re fine with sticky fingers and potentially a larger mess, I’d recommend going somewhere else. Ps: Is this petty? Yes. But the spill was quite irritating.

I love the milk teas in Tpumps they are very refreshing, although they are on the sweet side. The customer service is on the friendly side, so I have no complaints. If you want to get some boba, have Tpumps in your mind.

Bubble tea with fully customizable flavours! I chose lavender lychee peach green tea. Pretty worth it for $5, honey boba included. Wish there was a little more boba but it's fine. They even had a dispenser of lavender fruit tea outside the shop for you to take samples.

Trumps . Where do I begin, the great customer Service, Delicous samples, great options, and tasty drinks. I went here yesterday at around 1:50ish, the samples were very good. The worker that took are order was very nice and chill, it only took 5 minutes to get our drinks. I recommend coming here

Great prices and perks throughout the week. Boba and tea is mid-pack, but price and size makes up for it! One of my regular stops.

this place's honey boba was surprisingly soft! as for the drink, pretty standard taste for what you pay for, but honestly the consistency of the tapioca boba blew me away. it doesn't have an oddly hard center like many other cheap-ish boba places, and for that i applaud tpumps!

I love Tpumps. The price is low and consistent, and while they don't serve the best quality boba, you get your money's worth, which is something I can't say for many OTHER boba places. The drink is a good size for just 5 dollars and 50 cents (if you are getting the Tpumps size) and the boba is tasty. The pearl-tea ratio isn't my favorite, there's usually about half of the tea left after all of the boba has been finished. I like the variety of flavors and customization, though I will say their non-caffeinated drinks just taste like syrup and water. Those are really my only complaint about the drinks themselves, I have never encountered problems with the service. They are fast, kind, and make your drinks just how you want them. My favorite quirks about Tpumps is their Tpumps Tuesdays, where you can upgrade to a Pumpbo size cup for free, and their free samples. What makes this Tpumps especially nice is its location. It is at the Metro Center, so you can get boba after your grocery run at Safeway or take your boba with you to the Leo J. Ryan park just across the street. All around, it's a great cheap boba joint that I encourage you to visit. 4/5.

Total Score: 8.275 Ambiance: 3.25/5 There were some fun Halloween decorations, and the menu was so cutesy. But the metal kitchen ruined the vibes. Also literally no place to wait in line Food: 5/5 Boba was super duper omega chewy it was so satisfying to drink up the balls. Also loved the hints of fruit in the tea, wasn’t overly sweet Wow: 0/1 Normal boba place Total Score = 3.5*AM + 6*FOOD + 0.5*WOW

Sneha Shankar

Free samples and an insane number of flavor combos - definitely worth swinging by to try out a wild flavor combo. The boba itself is excellent in taste and texture. The syrups themselves are pretty average, flavors aren’t very strong; however, given that it’s $5 and you can pick any three flavors of your choice, it’s a pretty good value for your money. Zero sugar is really the only way to go here — vegan milk options are available as well!

J
James Wang

If you're here for a premium milk tea experience, you've come to the wrong place. But if you're looking for a cheap, sweet drink, consider Tpumps as they're known for using syrups and flavored teas. What I like about them is that they have affordable drinks ($6 for a 32 oz) and the boba doesn't cost extra. They also have premade monthly specials and are quite fast.

This Boba place offers a satisfactory experience. The service is friendly, and they boast a wide range of flavors, both fruit-based and milk-based. They even provide options to combine two or three flavors in one Boba tea. However, it's worth noting that they use formula powder instead of original milk. I opted for almond milk, so I can't speak for the regular milk powder, but my overall experience was decent.

Seems they have artificial flavors which is not fun. Trying the regular oolong tea, with honey boba and fresh ginger.

I really wanted to like this place because there are so many custom options and the staff are super cool and understanding. but despite choosing zero sugar for the drink it felt like I was pouring pure sugar down my throat. The Bobo was also pure sugar. couldn't even finish the drink but if you have a massive sweet tooth I guess you'll like it...

It's cool how you can choose various flavors. I got taro everything. While I love taro, I wish it had been smaller chunks so I could eat it through the straw.

Iʻm visiting home from out the country and I love Tpumps so I went about 5 times and about 3 of the times my drinks were not correct. Even when they would remake it, it would still be wrong. Not sure why they kept making my drinks incorrectly but it got annoying so I just gave up.

Sweet as hell even with 50% sweetness. And these guys don’t get ur order. No flavor. Just green tea with milk. Make it green milk tea. Still I got flavors. Why!
