Nest Tea House in Arcadia is one of my go to boba spots. Reasonable prices, ample seating and quick parking. You can also do a phone order and pick up within 10-15 minutes! The only reason I knocked a star down was because the quality of the drink always changes.I always get the Milkstache green tea with 50% sugar and boba which is my absolute favorite. Sometimes the boba is too hard while other times the tea is too bitter or watered down.
January 2022 - I went to this Arcadia location before trying the San Gabriel location the next day. It was a weekend full of Nest Tea House drinks. No regrets.Food/Pricing - Drinks are one size and about $5 something without toppings. I got the Earl Grey Milk Tea with lychee jelly. It was good! Though I wish I got it without toppings so I could taste the tea more but I enjoyed it nonetheless.Service/Ambiance - The staff was okay, not super friendly but not rude either. Be sure to ask for a stamp card!! I totally forgot to ask and they didn't offer it when we were there. ☹Will I be back? Most likely!
Great tea, but popular so is usually packed.
The boba is super delicious. The drink is a bit of pricy compare to other trees place. But overall taste is fine. They serve with "fresh" dairy.
nice place to study! drinks are decent and workers are very nice
Honey boba milk tea thing was good
Long version - A new gem in the heart of old Pasadena. This place has some of freshest tasting tea drinks I have had outside of Asia! I'm usually disgusted by the run-of-the-mill asian tea places where you get overpriced drinks made with powder and artificially flavored syrups. I could tell this place use REAL TEA LEAVES! That's very rare. We ordered the Cheese Mousse Pu-erh tea and Green Jade Fruit Melody were very very impressed with the flavor and texture. The decor is bright and chic. There's selfie corner for those who are into that... AKA wives and gf's -__-"
I love boba here a lot because it's always chewy, flavorful, and sweet. My addiction here is green tea, but their milk tea also very good, and I would highly recommend.
I got the winter melon milk tea and the grapefruit green tea. The winter melon milk tea is good. I WOULD NOT order the boba. It's unpalatable.
Kind people, great tea & good vibes. I love this place!
