4 stars bc the drinks are a hit or a miss! My friend got the Hokkaido Peal Milk Tea and it tasted too heavily of coconuts. All is fine and dandy if you’re into coconuts but sadly it was not well received haha. I got the Okinawa Pearl Milk Tea and it was 20% off for the month of February hehe, really good and tasted like brown sugar. Definitely will come back for some simple drinks like their fruit teas!

They are too slow, we have been waiting for almost 20 minutes for a drink, I understand maybe this is busy place and popular but waiting long time without noticed is not cool.

A small tea place to «sharetea» with friends. One of the better tea places that I know around Chino Hills area. The location isn’t very big and only limited seating so not recommended for a large group hang out. Tea taste great. The flavor teas tend to be very sweet and would recommend asking for less sugar. One of my favorite tea is Hokkaido Milk tea(less sugar). I honestly don’t know if their boba is good or not because I usually opt out the boba. Would also recommend the Matcha Red Bean. My friend sewers by this drink but I find it really sweet.

First time here yesterday & it wasn’t as great as I thought. The cashier wasn’t helpful at all. She told me their special was the milk tea. Well obviously? There’s a bunch of milk teas on the menu, how am I gonna know which one to try. I got two drinks & they both were horrible.

Welps, I’ve pretty much been to every boba place under the sun, so naturally, I had to check out Sharetea. I’ve heard a lot about this place from my friends in NorCal and have been wondering how it stacks up to TenRen’s and Half & Half(my two favorite places). Unfortunately, I don’t think this place quite measures up — the tea still seems more catered to American tastebuds, as the tea is obviously more diluted(less strong brewed and distinct) and still way too sweet for my liking. I tried a mango and passionfruit green tea with aiyu jelly, which is basically a light-tasting lemon flavored jelly I grew up eating. They allow you to customize your sugar level in percentages of 30, 50, and 80. Since I don’t like things too sweet and knew the jelly would already add extra sweetness, I chose 30 percent sugar. The cashier was really friendly and assured me that my selection would taste great because my exact combination had recently been a suggested drink in their store. Unfortunately, once I got in my car and tried the drink, it was sickeningly sweet. I honestly think the drink itself would have probably been okay had they simply used less sugar… but because they didn’t, my teeth literally hurt to the point where I felt like I was getting cavities with each sip. I kind of wonder if they just forgot to reduce the sugar as I had requested, or if the drink really IS that sweet even after a sugar adjustment, but… it’s hard to know either way for sure. Needless to say, I was highly disappointed in my drink, considering Sharetea is supposedly from Taiwan, so you would think their drinks would have a strong brewed, more distinct tea flavor with just a hint of sweetness, instead of a heaping mouthful of sugar. I also ordered an okinawa milk tea for my husband, which I thought was much better and way less sweet — even though I didn’t even adjust the sugar level, so you would think his drink would have been even sweeter than mine! The roasted brown sugar flavor was very aromatic and a nice change from typical milk tea flavors. This drink definitely tasted more like the authentic Asian stuff that I prefer. All in all, Sharetea is middle-of-the-road for drinks. I’m surprised their drinks aren’t better, considering they don’t serve any food or desserts… so you would think their drinks would really be on point, since that’s their only specialty! Also, this location is still on the newer side, so the staff still seems very unsure of themselves. For instance, the cashier was super nice, but didn’t even know the difference between grass jelly and herbal jelly(there’s a difference, peeps — and for the record, they only serve the latter here). On the bright side, there’s plenty of parking here, it’s located in the same plaza as 99 Ranch for convenient shopping, and the prices are pretty reasonable if you take advantage of their specials. For instance, right now they’re offering 20% off on all mango drinks or on any drink if you check in on Unilocal(not advertised, so you have to ask). They only have one size for their drinks, which is a large, and most drinks normally cost around $ 4…so with the discounts, was able to get two drinks with toppings for a little under $ 8, which is much cheaper than TenRen’s! Then again, you get what you pay for. Like I said, this place is just a-okay for boba… I’d say it’s worse than Cha for Tea, Guppy House, and Tea Station, but about on par with Cha2O and still better than Lollicup, TapEx, and those other fake powdery tea places. Haha, as you can tell… I drink A TON of milk tea, so I have a pretty vast basis for comparison!

There were 2 younger girls working when I came in(first time) and one customer ahead of me. After the first customer placed their order, I waited for a while and ended up having to interrupt one of the girls to ask a question because I wasn’t acknowledged the whole time… just to find out there’s a $ 10 minimum for cards.

Sharetea! I first had Sharetea back in the bay area and I remembered it as being pretty good. I was super excited when I heard they opened up a Sharetea in my hometown! Sharetea was established in Taiwan in 1992 and has expanded to over 200 stores today. Luckily, Chino Hills has one of those locations. I’ve been here like 5 times now and each time has been great. The boba is perfect in terms of sweetness and chewiness. The milk tea is also great tasting as well. I usually always get Taiwanese Classic Black Milk Tea, so I can’t say much about the other menu choices. But in terms of boba, this is as good as it gets. The milk tea is solid here and I usually get 50 or 75% sugar and that’s plenty sweet for me. Service here is good, they are pretty fast and usually not too busy. It’s located in a pretty busy plaza containing 99 Ranch Market and Daiso, and many various Asian eateries. Parking can be difficult though, but I haven’t had much of an issue, especially if you’re willing to walk. Overall, this is my favorite boba stop in Chino Hills! So glad Sharetea came to my hometown!

So, my family and I love love love boba! We drove all the way from Fullerton since chino hills is the closest sharetea from us and they are out of boba! How frustrating is it for us to crave boba and they run out of boba. This is the 3rd time it’s happened to us. We come to sharetea bc they have wintermelon milk tea. Not a lot of places serve this type of tea, so of course we always come back to sharetea for our boba cravings. And of course, the last time we came one of the workers seemed«sick». She was blowing her nose and making drinks without … washing her hands. Talk about, sanitation! So, here’s the thing … this is a boba place where they serve various teas with additional toppings so shouldn’t they keep their toppings well stocked? I mean, it’s Friday night and they will have more customers so make enough toppings that will last until they close.

The shop itself is kind of small. There’s only 3 tables available, 2 being a 2 seater that is awkwardly low. And one big table that sits 8 people. The customer service is mediocre. She got our orders and they came out fine. No complaints, but no praise either. I ordered the strawberry black tea with boba and it was pretty good! My friend ordered green tea with 30% sugar and he liked it. I had no complaints, but my friend said they played really awkward music for a boba shop. It was kind of funny. They played Classic Disney movie songs. After he said so, I couldn’t help but realize that it was kind of odd too. Restrooms are clean! Haha it’s located in the back, just ask them where! Only 3 stars because there’s not really anything special about them.

I really like this place for drinks. The boba is soft and chewy every time. I’m happy they offer wintermelon tea, because a lot of places don’t know what that is. Overall, I’m just happy there’s finally a great boba place here in Chino Hills. The service and drinks are always on point. I don’t have a complaint about it so far. They give you the option to adjust the sweetness and ice level. That’s a big plus! My personal go-to drinks are their oolong milk tea or matcha with fresh milk. Soo delicious. Edit: Open till 10pm on weekends! Awesome. Get a stamp card. I’ve gotten 2 free drinks so far. =) PS: Cash only or $ 10 minimum purchase on credit cards.

Great service! We came in here and they immediately welcomed us. The employee informed us of the promotion going on. If we get the almond milk or black sesame milk drink then we get a scratcher that could win an iPhone 6s! I asked to try a sample and they gladly obliged. She made us(3 of us) each a small cup to try. We ordered our drinks and they quickly made it.

4 stars because drink flavors are good. But, I don’t like getting boba with the drinks here, as they are not too well cooked. (Always a hard lil’ center instead not soft & chewy) Very nice & fast service. Always very clean.

Came here for the first time with my friend! My friend got a green tea crema with mini boba & I got a green team crema with aloe vera. I personally like my drinks not too sweet so I got it half sweetened and it was perfect! They are pretty generous with the toppings which was something that I noticed and appreciated. The vibe here is also super chill– def a great place to do work or just catch up with friends. Oh, and Daiso is also next door… Which is a huge plus

Omg OMG omg OMG. First time here. My hometown is OC — where all the Asian fusion is at! This spot, I got the green tea in creama! Dawwww it’s very similar to the sea cream jasmine tea at 7 Leaves! Very close to the drink. Shake up the drink and enjoy! Very refreshing! A bit more expensive than 7 Leaves though. But for IE, I’ll settle for this.

$ 10 minimum for card… luckily I had cash. The service is very good. They have some genuinely friendly people working here. The drinks are nothing to rave about but it’s a relaxing spot to hang out. You won’t feel rushed to leave or anything. I also like the music which is upbeat. I like that you can customize your drink with the amount of ice and the amount of sugar. The associates are knowledgeable and considerate. When i ordered my drink with 30% sugar(the lowest option i was given) the cashier let me know: by the way the jelly in your drink is pretty sweet. You can tell they really care and that’s rare to find nowadays.

Yesterday was my third time here and my last. The drinks here are SO milky that it gave me a stomach ache. I’m an avid milk tea drinker and I rarely have this problem. I eat ice cream like there’s no tomorrow, so I know I’m not lactose intolerant. It’s like drinking sweet milk. No hint of tea whatsoever. Both my sister and I got the Green Milk Tea. I had a sip and asked them if they could add more tea to my drink. The girl who helped us was super sweet and helpful. She made our drinks again but it wasn’t any better. I opted to get the Green Milk Tea because it’s usually a safe go to drink. Sadly, it wasn’t any better than any of the other drinks I’ve had here. Oh yeah, I attempted to redeem my 20% off Unilocal check-in and they said it’s an expired deal… If I’m in the area again, I’ll opt for 85 degrees for drinks or drive to Rowland Heights for my milk tea fix.

–$ 10MINIMUMFORCARD– This kinda sucks since they only have drinks. So unless you plan on being the whole gang, BRINGCASH! The customer service here is mediocre. The employees are clearly enjoying their job because their always talking to one another. Even when they’re taking your order. This happened to me once but all of the other times I’ve been here, they were all very nice. Their milk tea is amazing. This is one of the best milk teas I’ve had.
