7 Leaves Cafe

Favorite boba place! Their thai tea and assam milk tea are my go to drinks. I come here a lot and I’m always happy with my drinks!

Japanese Matcha Soy Boba the best and the Japanese Matcha Tea boba love love love

They are so nice i asked where they have wifi and he just gave me a free sample. Super delicious I will go back forever

Quick stops to 7Leaves are the best and I'm so glad I found this one in Irvine. I didn't expect it to be a bit hidden in a corner, but of course the quality of their drinks were consistent with other locations. Happy to find a local one now that I can stop to when I'm in the area. Service was super fast and attentive!

Quick stop shop for tea and coffee, as well as great boba and macarons. The workers are always friendly, and the drinks are worth it!

Extremely quick and tasty. Simply awesome

Easily some of the best coffee available in Irvine. I highly recommend their house coffee, it is perfectly crafted. The staff are warm, friendly and quick! Lines can get long here, but, the staff make up for that by somehow being both personable and fast sacrificing neither in the process. Definitely a clutch experience. I also recommend the Thai tea! Could drink a gallon of it on my own it's so good!

Love this business. The macarons and milk tea are my favorite.

Service here is amazing. I ordered the mango green tea with regular amount of sugar and after I tried it, I realized I forgot to ask for half sweet. Employee overheard me saying that I forgot to do half sweet, and offered to remake my drink. I didn't want to hassle them, but the offer to do so was exceptional service imo. I've been here about 5x and each time, the employees are always friendly.

7 Leaves is a great spot for milk tea and boba drinks. They are open till 11pm which is great. My daughter and I go here at least twice a week and it has become our little ritual. The staff is always friendly and if for some reason you're order is wrong they are quick to fix it and will go the extra mile by offering you the incorrect order along with your correct order. The rewards could be a little better but that's not a reason to stop you from trying them. Overall my fav spot outside of Westminster.

I love going to this place! The coffee is strong, they have a nice variety of drinks and have fast service! Plus they have a stamp card so every 10th drink is free! Only downside is that the place is pretty small so it can be a bit awkward while you wait for your drink. But if you go before the rush then you should be good!

Danny really hooked up with the the recommendation and gave me the chance to try true 7leaves Assam milk tea and it was honestly one of the best cups I’ve had. The flavor was bold, rich, and perfectly balanced with the milk, without being overpowering or watered down. You can really taste the quality of the Assam tea it has that deep, malty flavor that makes it stand out from regular milk tea. What really made the experience special, though, was how knowledgeable Danny is. He clearly knows exactly what he’s talking about when it comes to tea from explaining where the leaves come from to how the brewing process affects the flavor. You can tell he’s passionate and well educated about his craft, and it shows in every sip.

Quick place to get a coffee or tea. This is not a high end coffee shop, but it’s quick and convenient. I always order on the app, drive over and pick up. I prefer the sea cream black coffee easy sweet. The Vietnamese coffee and mint sereno are good too This place is take out only and parking is usually not too bad since it’s in the back corner of the shopping center

Awesome coffee!! Check out the shh...menu from the 7 Leaves app to find my favorite coffee drink - Caramel Macchiato. It's delicious!!! If you're not in the mood for coffee, then try any of their teas. Hot or cold, they are all delicious and different from the usual teas. Customer service is the best and all the employees there are so wonderful and kind. It's always a pleasure going into this shop and walking out happy with my favorite drinks. 😍

Food: Ordered a signature Latte. Plenty of caffeine and sugar in there, it was delicious! They also sell a variety of macaron flavors. Service: I've only been here a couple of times and the clerk was more than happy to give me a recommendations. A nice alternative to Starbucks.

Great drinks, fast service and good prices! It's a tiny little place but the employees are friendly and drinks come out quick. Their boba is really good, not too chewy and not too hard. Thai tea is always a go to!

Their Vietnamese iced coffee is a a great choice! A solid drink to start off for first time visitors

Love this place. Great service, they are very friendly and fast. Love the teas and coffee. The macaroons are okay, I've had better. I will keep coming back for the drinks.

I love this 7 leaves. My wife and I come here often. We've taken several of our friends and family here. Always a good experience. Thai tea is my thing and I've tried so many others. No one beats 7 leaves in my opinion.

I go here regularly after my IVC classes and it's the BEST choice for boba near there. The workers are always nice, and it seems like there are always a lot of employees; which tells me they are not overworked/super stressed/ and that the place is well-managed. My favorite is the green thai tea. It's always pleasantly sweet, which the right richesness and flavor of the Thai and Jasmine tea combo, and tastes constant for the most part. I also love that when I ask for "extra boba" they never disappoint!! This place has my respect, thank you for the sweet experience & boba

7Leaves is the best boba place in the world. I’ve tried to find somewhere even equal to 7Leaves in every country that I’ve been to. But there is none. And also, Anaya is the most helpful worker ever

A popular Vietnamese‑inspired tea and coffee cafe with refreshing drinks like Thai tea, jasmine milk tea, and signature Vietnamese coffee — many fans highlight the flavorful beverages and friendly service. It’s a casual, mostly takeout spot ideal for a quick pick‑me‑up or late‑night drink, though sweetness levels can be a bit high for some.

I've tried several other local spots and this is my go-to for Thai iced tea. I've tried both the green and black Thai teas here. I prefer the black Thai tea - the astringency of black tea is a better contrast against the sweetness and spices. But the Thai green tea is also good, especially if you prefer a milder, less astringent palate. Can't go wrong either way - have never had a disappointing drink from 7 Leaves.

Yummy drinks. Service is great. The house coffee is always good, if you like your coffee sweet. This place is small, not really ideal for hanging out. It does have some seating, but it's a place you grab your dinks to go. They have macaroons here. The parking lot gets really crowded on the weekends.

I stop by to get the mung bean milk tea, which tastes great, some say it might be too sweet, but I'm good with it. When you first walk up the line might be out the door to the parking lot. Looks intimidating, but the line usually goes fairly quickly. Once you do get to the counter and place your order, they turn it around pretty quickly and have it ready before you get ready to wait for it.

+ Services is quick. + Tea is good per usual. * They have sandwiches that they stock in the morning, but they run out sometimes. - This location doesn't offer popcorn chicken or other snacks like in the Euclid and Garden Grove location. - This is the only 7leaves I've encountered so far that actually charges for half-sweet on some items.

Aside form the parking, this is a great place to stop by to get a quick drink to go. The strawberry croissants are pretty good, but they source them from Cream Pan so they are not always available early on. My favorite has been the House coffee and the jasmine tea.

Minus 1 star for the long wait and inefficient way of tasting. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the fact that you can get a sample before you buy. But sampling before you order holds up the line. But seriously, why is this chain not in NorCal yet???!! Drinks: I cannot recommend the mung bean milk tea enough. It has a strong pleasant taste from pandan and the slightly grainy texture of the mung bean, perfect with chewy boba. I also tried the assam milk tea with sea cream. If you enjoy a strong tea flavor and sweet drinks, this may be a good choice for you.

They made the process completely stress free

I have not been to this location before but finally tried it. It’s actually just a place to get drinks and or pick up orders. It’s located inside a shopping center. I placed my order and was able to get there in 5 minutes and my drink was ready. I got a Japanese matcha soy and picked it up in the pickup section. Would definitely recommend this place.

I wanted a hot milk tea to warm up during the cool, wet winter. The friendly cashier recommended the hot jasmine, but I thought I’d try the taro. Unfamiliar with taro milk tea, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Despite her thinking it wasn’t sweet enough, I felt the tea was very sweet, but I am accustomed to unsweetened tea. The cashier then suggested “easy sweet”, which would mean more half and half, so I ordered a 12 oz hot. It was still sweet, and satisfying. Surprisingly, the taro wasn’t as earthy as I expected, and had more of a coconut and vanilla aroma. Still, I would have preferred a less sweet option, and was slightly disappointed they didn’t have unsweet or barely sweet, given the online claims of daily brewing and blending. I guess they make a single “base” for flavored brews, and dilute as requested. I recommend the hot taro “easy sweet” to anyone who doesn’t mind sweetened milk tea, since you don’t lose much taro flavor with the dilution.

To make this simple . Don't expect the drink to be fresh, everything is premix even the house coffee. Everything got sugar premix No hot coffee but ice coffee with a paper cup.

Ordered the matcha soy milk. No idea if the sugar level can be altered. The original recipe is quite sweet. Seems a lot of people did online order; therefore, no place to sit inside, which is quite disappointing.

Been a regular customer at 7 Leaves. It's my first time coming at this location. The service is not great at this one. I ordered a total of 6 items for Togo. The female service was rushing obviously. She kept asking if that would be all for several times after I added each drink. The store was not crowded and I was clear of what I ordered. She did not verify or either ask me to check the orders like other stores did before closing out. They messed up one of the drink.

I am ASTOUNDED that I check reviews for a cafe and cannot determine from them whether there is a comfortable place to sit and have a conversation (my DEFINITION of a cafe) but I do see a lot of photos of hands holding cups. Yessiree, they do have cups that fit into a hand. Thank you for those helpful reviews!

Why is there so much drink missing (see photo, it’s at least 1 inch)? 7Leaves Irvine on Jeffrey. When I’m paying $6+ for a drink, it should be more filled to the top; foam should not account for space…unless a customer wants foam/requests empty space.

Consistently terrible service. Multiple times I have gone inside with no other customers around, and the people behind the counter look at me, don't say hello, and continue doing whatever they are doing for quite some time before returning to take my order. Basic customer service is quite lacking.

Taste is good, but they put so much sugar in everything, on average each drink has 35gm sugar in 20fl oz. That's freaking unhealthy. And that's not the sad part, they don't display this information clearly in cafe. You have to go on their website and click on each coffee in menu to see amount of sugar.

7 leaves have the worst boba drink in Irvine. Tastes very artificial

I ordered up sized no ice for my wife because she can't drink iced drink during her period. But they instead gave a half-filled cup to her with the drink super sweet. What's the point of having a no ice option if we are only getting a half-sized drink. Either notify us on the app, or remove that option altogether.
