Nice drinks, good service

I randomly walked in an hour before closing looking for something to warm me up. I had a surprisingly delicious mocha. One of the better mochas I’ve tried I’ve had around the bay. My recommendation is get the mocha with no whip and 30% sugar with the salt creamer, genuinely amazing. Staff was really down to earth aswell.

Great customizable drinks, love the Vietnamese ice coffee and milk teas with boba etc! Can replace or add plant based milk for most drinks. All the staff are really nice too

I’m totally obsessed with Presotea! Their menu is bursting with options—milk teas, fruit teas, you name it, and I love playing around with the sweetness and toppings. The Brown Sugar Milk Tea is my happy place—so creamy with that warm, caramel-y vibe, and the boba’s just chewy perfection. Then there’s the Passion Fruit Green Tea, which is like a tropical burst of sunshine, super zesty and refreshing with a bit of jelly for fun. The shop’s got this bright, friendly energy, and the staff is always chill, even when I’m taking forever to order. Got my drinks in like 10 minutes last time, and for about $6 each, it’s such a steal. Every sip feels like a little treat, and I’m already daydreaming about my next visit—maybe I’ll mix it up with a new topping!

Excellent customer service, delicious assortment of boba tea and drinks, welcoming atmosphere - thank you!

Affordable and lots of options! The owner is really nice too ❤️

Seriously some of the best boba in Berkeley! The atmosphere of the shop was super nice too! They had games, gatcha machines, comfy chairs, and even cute free keychains! I'll definitely be back and will take my friends:)

Drinks are very good and they’re relatively cheap. Boba is a bit less chewy than I’d like but otherwise very good

The tea had a great selection of flavors, the place is adorable, and the bathroom was so clean. A CLEAN bathroom!! This place truly deserves the five stars. Check it out!

Delicious! Store is super organized and clean. Service is wonderful

Almost missed the place! Cozy interior with lots of drinks selection. Restroom! A little expensive but good quantity and quality.

Very cute decor, great boba and the fruit teas taste amazing :) looking forward to coming again!

Came here in the last hour. We got 5 drinks. The staff was super friendly and patient. (I had 3 kids with me). Quick service, drinks were good and we were able to adjust sugar and ice levels. Likely because it was the end of the day, but the boba were a little soggy. It's a tiny place right next to an apartment building entrance, a bit hidden. There's a bathroom and 2 claw machiness. They set out a display with cute trinkets and stickers and allow for each customer to take one. My nieces were definitely too distracted by the options available. Would definitely come again if we're headed this way.

Wanted to like this place since it’s one of the few boba places that opens early. Drink was ok but boba and grass jelly always tastes old. The boba especially. Doesn’t have that fresh chew and tastes like it’s been left out overnight. ETA: I’ve tried their drinks over 4+ times now

It pains me to leave a bad review because I can tell they are independently owned business but the boba was really soggy and melted in my mouth without much chewing. It’s as if they reheated some leftover boba from the previous day. Berkeley has a lot of boba places, this is sadly on my avoid list.

Gross. The boba is the wrong consistency. It’s so soft. The tea is low quality and more brewed strong enough. Watery milk tea. Yuck.
