Half & Half Tea Express

First time I like boba in my milk tea so good

Such a lovely small Boba place. My favorite is #4 Bob's coffee w/ Honey boba and Vanilla Latte. It is sweet, but that is how I like my coffee. The service personale are always friendly, it makes you want to come back. This October they wore costumes, and they all looked nice. I love that they have promotions such as a free size upgrade or sometimes they give out other stuff. Very clean small shop, and they have a huge variety to choose from. Just be careful, it can be very addictive lol.

One of my favorite milk tea place ever. Love the honey boba, soft,slightly chewy and hint of warm honey. Also the fresh tea is brew daily. Highly recommend, if you are ever in the area.

One of my favorite boba place. Got a free upgrade from regular size to a large size as well.

SO. DAM. MAGICAL! Easy parking. In and out each time within 5 minutes. EVERY DRINK IS INCREDIBLE. I myself have been a devout HNH worshipper since middle school (10+ years!!!). Cashiers are the friendliest homies to chat up with or even ask about drink recommendations. Every topping (boba, jelly, pudding) adds that perfect kiss to the top of a sweet drink to bring your taste buds to the big O. The boba is cooked so perfectly, the most sensual warmth, sweetness, and soft yet chewy texture in my mouth. For an extra special time, I highly recommend getting the ice milk, milk teas, or any smoothie (anything creamy in general). ;) HNH has been just as, if not more, life-changing than the time my partner and I got Come, Dawn to help with our sleep issues.

So I’m usually the typical Thai Tea or Milk Tea with boba... but the past two times I cane to Half & Half I got Mango Green Tea with Honey Boba 🙃 dam dam dam it is so good... Get it without the Latte so it won’t be Latte-ish... that’s my style... you can never go wrong with any of the drinks here 😋 trust me!!!

Come here for hot grass jelly drink, i like how they open pretty late compared to other location on foothill. Customer service is decent. Plenty of parking.

Wonderful staff! They were really nice! Or drinks came out fast! Ooh, I didn't get to take a picture of the inside, but they have little crane machines. You have to purchase tokens, but if you're looking to win a prize while you're waiting on drinks, you can! You just went have a lot of time.

Here one of the best bobba according to my self, specially who loves strawberry, you must order ice milk with strawberry, pudding and bobba, why? Because the milk strawberry taste like strawberry milk shake!! The place name is "Half and Half Tea Express". Last 3 weeks ago, they got promotion free upgrade for all the drinks, but now ended already! Hoping they could do this promotion again, because the price for me quite pricey for bobba drink! The funny is.... on their menu, they didnot put the price, so we only know when we finish order and got to pay. Like today i order the big size for : ice milk with strawberry, pudding and bobba plus the second drink is boss coffee, total I pay is $ 16.76 for 2 drinks as my picture!

After a full day of activities, we were looking for something sweet. The initial plan was to head over to a local Baskin-Robbins, but we were delighted to find this Half and Half Tea Express next door. I haven’t been to one in quite some time, and their menu is quite intimidating; however, I always like to go with either what’s on their Top 10. This location had an Employee’s Choice, and I went with the Brown Sugar Milk Tea with Taro Pudding. I’d like to thank the employee that recommended this drink by placing it on this special menu. Great service + great taste = great tea. - Ron (Instagram: thegreatlegaspi)

My favorite boba tea place. There are many new boba tea shops in SGV, Half and Half beats them all hands down. The teas prepared here are especially delicious and full of tea flavors. Although other boba tea shops offer similar flavor and varieties, this shop makes the teas with great quality teas and the right brewing techniques. The bobas are extra chewy and soft. To top it off, Half and Half uses crushed ice to make the tea extra cool and drinkable. I love their grass jolly and the yellow pudding to go in the tea. Slurping the puddings makes the boba tea drinking experience extra special. This place is popular. There is always a long line here. In order to avoid the long line and save time, you can call in to place your order. By the time you get to the shop, your tea is ready for you to pick up.

I ordered their employee top choice mango Jamaica with aloe and lychee jelly. The color and taste is not like mango （50% sugar) but more like Chinese bayberry 杨梅。 it’s otherwise refreshing and tasty, but this shop can get busy and I waited 20 mins for my drink.

Ordered an Iced Milk Black Tea with half sweetness and less ice. Generous size on the standard, funny wide cup shape though thankfully they do fit in the cupholders. Location is a bit secluded in a corner of the plaza. A neighboring store with a less than stellar drive thru may block traffic.

Best boba tea. Wish they could open some shops in bay area.

Great classic place to get some delicious boba. Lesson learned from most recent visit: If you usually get less sweet in other places, maybe bump it up one level higher, as their drinks lose flavor and thus taste watery. Nonetheless, they have a solid variety of drinks. And their honey boba is nicely chewy and is tasty even if your drink is less sweet.

First time visiting, usually go to the Pasadena location. The person at the counter was so kind and helpful, lovely gal. There was an odor inside the shop that smelled like old, raw fish. I don't know if that's what was causing the odor, but whatever it was, was very off-putting and offensive, I couldn't wait to receive my drink get outside. Definitely not interested in ordering food there. As far as the drink, the Boba itself was sweet, fresh, so good. Unfortunately the boba was freshly hot at the bottom of my iced milk tea, causing the ice to melt fast and the drink to become diluted. By the time I got to my car, I had a large warm, watery diluted milk tea with hot boba. :(

This boba shop is absolutely amazing, the drinks they offer are deliciously craveable. They are extremely clean inside and the atmosphere is similar to that of a small town coffee shop. Furthermore, they make the drinks very efficiently, their service is mostly speedy, as compared to others. Their price is a bit on the higher side of things but overall the quaility of these drinks is outstanding. If this review was helpful, please press the thumbs up button below.

ON Baldwin Ave & Naomi Ave. SouthWEST Corner. Nearby Moffett' Family Restaurant & Chicken Pie Shoppe.

I've tried this place 3 times and it has disappointed me three times. The first time I got a simple milk tea and the drink was okay but the boba was a little lacking like it was kinda old. Not a huge deal. I went back a few months later to give it a second shot. Ordered a lavender black milk tea with boba. They forgot the boba and I had unfortunately driven halfway home before I opened my drink. I was really angry and disappointed because it wasn't even busy when I ordered. I went back again to see if this place could redeem itself. (The only reason I even stop by is because it's next to a really good ramen restaurant). I ordered a taro black milk tea. The first sip was bad. For whatever reason, the drink wasn't strained and it still had taro pieces or whatever they use to make the drink in it. So every time you take even a small sip you end up eating something with the texture and taste of bits of rice. Will never be coming back. I went home and strained the drink to see what was in it. Included is a photo.

Having lived in Arcadia most of my life, I Am angered and disappointed with the owners and customers of Half and Half. They have no trash can for their customers and TRASH! Totally Disgraceful and disgusted with this!!! Either take responsibility or close down another one of your shops🙏
