Tata Teahouse

I can’t think of any boba shop around Fremont Blvd other than Q Cup (it’s been around since I was in elementary school I feel…), but I never bothered giving it a try, so when I heard that they opened a boba shop near Trader Joe’s (in the Fremont Hub plaza), I had to go check it out for myself.
As I walked in, the interior of the store? Love at first sight! The first time I came here was with a coworker. I decided to get a passion fruit green tea with lychee jelly and my coworker got a rose green tea. We both were pleased with our drinks as they were not incredibly sweet. I like my drinks more on the strong tea side if you know what I am saying…
The second time I came here was with my friend Paula B. I got the mango milk tea with egg pudding and she got the strawberry milk with egg pudding. We ended up switching drinks with each other because we both enjoyed each other’s drinks more. Either way, both drinks were pretty good. Mango one was a little too sweet for me, but I still enjoyed it.
The cashier even offered to take polaroids for us because she noticed I had my polaroid camera with me, lol. Thanks! They put polaroids on their wall near the kitchen too!
$ 5 minimum for card but if you want to use it under $ 5, there will be a 50 cent charge.

I have tried three of their drinks so far and like them. So far my to go place for pearl drinks. :)

The tea house is located in a huge plaza in Fremont. My friend ordered a roasted oolong while i ordered the famous rainbow cereal smoothie. The oolong was alright. A bit watered down and lacking in flavor and the pearls tasted really old. Not freshly made like other places. For the rainbow cereal smoothie it literally tastes just like the fruity pebbles cereal but in a drink form. Way too sweet. It was nice to try out but there’s other places that are better.

Tea is ok… probably what ul get at any other tea place. I rate it as a ²⁄₅ as they don’t take cards for transactions less than $ 10… I didn’t have cash the 2^nd time so we just left.

This boba house has pretty good drinks. We usually order grass jelly milk tea, strawberry milk tea, or matcha green tea. Their boba always has a good chewy texture. They also have white pearls now if you’re looking for a healthy alternative. Their spam musubi and popcorn chicken is pretty good also. Will probably try their dessert crepes as they look tasty.

Wanted to do a quick boba run before work. I ordered a regular Thai tea ($ 4.00) and a regular milk tea ($ 3.75) with boba. At first, my total was $ 7.25, but they charged .50 cents for using my card. Stores that charge .50 cents for using cards sort of irritate me because we have to pay to use our card and pay for the drinks, which in my opinion sucks. The service was pretty fast, not a long line or wait. The boba inside the drinks were chewy, not too sweet (sort of had no flavor). The Thai tea was good and enjoyable. I’ve ordered a green apple slush here a few weeks ago– very yummy if you like sour apples! I wish they had fresh watermelon drinks here. Overall, pretty decent place.

Meh, their drinks are okay.
This business is new and therefore enticing, but their drinks could use a little work. They have a very large selection though, from smoothies to «mojitos» (non-​alcoholic) to flavored sodas and milk/​fruit tea. They also serve dessert and spam musubi (for a limited time only since it was sold out when we went).
Needing a boba spot that was open in Fremont after dinner, the gang and I ended up here, figuring we’d try something new since not much was open at 9:00pm.
They are open late, and it is clean, well-​lit and inviting inside, all strengths for them. But they have a $ 10 credit card minimum (seriously?) so someone will be forced to pay for everyone. After ordering two large drinks and a regular, the total came out to $ 14.50. Uhhh, why so expensive?
The «larges» ended up just being really tall cups, and didn’t seem larger in width than the regular. In fact, it held less volume cuz ya know, physics. You can compare in the photos. I thought this very strange lol.
And on top of that, the flavors weren’t that great. They have unique drinks like «Rainbow Cereal Milk Smoothie» which my friend said tasted like «the milk at the bottom of a fruity pebbles bowl» but that was the point and he liked it. My friend liked her sour plum drink but my Grapefruit Green Tea was aiite. It wasn’t horrible but also nothing to write home about. Their egg pudding is super fresh though! It floated at the top of my drink when egg pudding usually sinks at the bottom (from being old or stale). This one seemed freshly made! So extra points for that. But my friend did not like her pearls and said it was too tough.
Since they’re still new, I’m sure they’ll continue to improve and I wouldn’t mind coming back here to get the spam musubi and try something else. But as of writing, there are better milk tea places in Fremont but I hope this place gets better! I really do.
‘Til next time!

A good place to unwind with a pearl tea. The ambiance is chic and they have free wifi.
The menu boasts of flavored teas, milk teas, smoothies, slush, mojitos, and cereal smoothies (that is new to me)
There are crepes and some chicken to snack on.
I ordered the Taro milk tea and popcorn chicken.
The Taro milk tea was a little too sweet to my liking. The popcorn chicken is great.
They have several tables and it was almost full on a Saturday evening.
Definitely recommend this place and I will be back!

I’ve only tried the passion fruit green tea from here, so my review is mostly just based off of that.
The drink was good, but I mostly tasted the tea with a slight taste of passion fruit. So for those who like most tea based drinks, give this place a try.

My friends and I were at Trader Joes and we needed a little something sweet to drink so we went next door and found ourselves here. Maybe we didn’t come at such a great time or something, but we asked to order one of their fancier fun drinks and they said that they were out. We were there at like 2 pm on a Sunday. I have no clue.
So I ended up getting a black tea with sea salt cream with 50% sweet. It didn’t taste too bad, but it was really sweet. So thank god I didn’t get the 100% sweet one. That would have been a cavity in a cup. I don’t remember the drinks that my friends got, but they said that it was a little on the sweet side and on the blander side.
Also, the service was not great. When we wanted to order the cashier wasn’t even at the register. Then she came out, looked at us and then walked back to the back. Then she finally came back, about 7 mins later and didn’t even acknowledge that we were waiting or apologized. Probably won’t be back here ever again.

Tata Teahouse gives you variety and quality in a local boba shop. The staff has always been friendly and helpful, plus they have a few extra options of items to much on like: crispy chicken, spam misbui, and crepes.
Their menu includes green and black tea alongside smoothies, milk tea, and cereal smoothies. You can upgrade your drink to a larger size for only a dollar if you are feeling very thirsty. I have received my drink a few times and the jellies have been cut into cute small star shapes… talk about the small details put into a drink!
Decent priced and good quality. If you are in the area and looking for a boba drink, check this place out.

In a nutshell.
Nice, presentation-​wise, but taste and price is meh.
Wi-​Fi connection is spotty. I have to retype the password each time I come here. I have their phone number memorized by now.
Employees are nice so far.
Teriyaki Crêpe:
Try asking if you can get it on a plate. Having it on that metal rack and a cardboard wrapper is inconvenient, and the sauce might drip down.
Red Bean Mocha Crêpe
The crêpe is hard to cut through and inside it, are red beans and whipped cream. You get a scoop of green tea ice cream on top. Very sweet.
Teriyaki Chicken and Broccoli with Rice:
¹⁰⁄₁₀. I had it once and thought it was perfect. Broccoli was salted and there was a lot of chicken. They also used short grain white rice. I’m definitely getting this again.
Strawberry Mojito:
Tastes kind of like 7UP with strawberry chunks. Why did I think there would be alcohol…
Rose Peach Green Tea:
The lady said I could only get 80% sweetness with it, but 80% is too sweet and tastes like 150%. I would’ve preferred 30%… OR BETTER YET, 0%!!!
Okinawa Fruit Tea: Very pretty, but so-​so. I don’t know why it’s called Okinawa.
I keep coming back because the Fremont Hub is halfway between the BART station and my house, so I walk over here to chill out at a quiet spot and charge my phone as I wait for my ride.

This tea house is nicely located in a large plaza with a lot of other stores, so parking is abundant. I honestly didn’t think anything of the name of this place until we got to the plaza, had trouble finding the tea house, and my friend was like, «where are the tatas?» All immaturity and jokes aside, this place was pretty decent. Lots of space and seats inside. The menu is pretty extensive ranging from milk teas, milk tea floats, crema drinks, «mojitos,» smoothies, waffles, toast, and crepes.
We ordered a plain milk tea, the infamous fruity pebbles rainbow cereal smoothie, and strawberry mojito. I think you can usually tell if a milk tea place is good by a plain simple milk tea and they pass! If you’ve eaten fruity pebbles, it literally tastes just like the cereal, but in smoothie form. The strawberry mojito was basically 7up with strawberries, except much more carbonated and fizzy, and no mint flavor. It was very comparable to Izze sparking soda. Spam musubi was good, just lacked on the sauce that musubi usually has. $ 5 for 2 though I think it was worth it.
Service was okay. The older woman who took our order was nice with explaining what things were. The second girl who helped us had an attitude. We ended up having to leave early and couldn’t finish our drinks we ordered for there so we asked to have a to go cup. She rolled her eyes and ran into chairs as she walked away.
All together, it was a cool place! Worth a try because their fruity pebbles smoothie is pretty unique.

Came here a couple of days ago with my friends to get our boba fix. There were a bunch of other boba places to choose from on Unilocal,but the picture of the Rainbow Cereal Smoothie caught our attention haha…
They have a pretty good selection of drinks to choose from on the menu… there’s a little sign near the cash register that has the top five drinks customers usually get, the top one being the Rainbow Cereal Smoothie. Unlike other boba places, this place doesn’t really sell snack foods, other than a handful of crepes, spam musubi, and salt n pepper chicken poppers, or whatever they are… on top of that, this place is pricey… my friend and I ordered the Rainbow Cereal Smoothie in a large and strawberry-​chocolate crêpe… damn, almost 19 bucks just for those three orders?
On the upside, the drink was really good… as some of the other reviewers have said, it’s like eating cereal from a bowl, but with the consistency of a smoothie. I should have opted out on the pearls though… i liked the chewiness of the pearls, but they put too much… it was hard sucking the leftover cereal at the bottom of the cup without having to choke on a couple of pearls hahaha…
The lady that rung us up was nice enough to add extra rainbow cereal to our drink without charge…
The strawberry crêpe was just okay… the crêpe itself looked intimidating though… it looked raw b/​c the crêpe was so light in color… the presentation of putting the crêpe on a rack is nice, but can be inconvenient in that as you’re working you’re way to eating the entire crêpe, you have to use your hands to pick it up and eat it and/​or tear pieces of it with your hand if you’re sharing it with someone else…
Overall it was an okay experience, just wish the drinks were cheaper…
Oh yeah, card is accepted here, but it’s a 50 cent charge if you’re order is 5 bux and under… just fyi…

Very pricey for your typical boba drinks. Location is nice, I guess; It’s located in the Fremont Hub plaza, between Popeye’s and King Noodle.
Interior décor was pretty cute. I was thinking it’d be a good place to study since they have free wi-​fi, and no one was using their comps at that time so internet speed would be decent. But! They cheap on AC, and I would die of heat trying to study in that sauna.
If you wanna give the place a try, I suggest ordering the rainbow cereal smoothie. It’s probably the only drink that makes this place unique. Oh and the mojitos too. What’s up with that?! Is it virgin or nah? Maybe I’ll try one of the mojitos the next time I’m in this plaza and in need of something to cool me off.

What attracted me here was the Rainbow Cereal Smoothie (Fruity Pebbles).
I drove all the way from San Jose to get it lol
Shop is located in a giant plaza with Trader Joe’s and other shops.
Looks like any other milk tea joint. Several tables, some games like Jenga and Uno. Lol
5 dollar card minimum or else it’s a 50 cent charge but their card machine wasn’t working yesterday. Luckily I had cash.
I ordered a regular rainbow cereal smoothie.
It came out pretty quick. ⁵⁄₅ stars for the taste. If you love fruity pebbles cereal, I suggest getting this drink. It’s also really sweet. It tastes like the milk after you drink your fruity pebbles cereal but with the consistency of a milkshake. :) it is delicious lol
Wish I had gotten a large! It was too good! 5 bucks for a large.
Haven’t tried the other drinks but my friends got large black milk teas with ice cream in it and they finished their drinks lol

It’s across from Marshalls :)
This is a typical boba place. Cute tables, huge menu, etc.
They have a little more variation with their drinks & snacks.
You can customize sugar & ice levels.
It’s also convenient they have a «Top 5 Flavors» list.
I ordered:
Large Caramel Milk Tea with boba and pudding.
1 Spam musubi.
The drink was sweet but I got used to it. The boba was ON POINT! It’s sort of like «al dente» absolutely perfect to chew on. The pudding was good…
The spam musubi was also super yummy. $ 2.65 was a decent price too.
Upon paying, I was handed a…
STAMP CARD.
Yep, I didn’t even inquire.
Sweet. Almost as sweet as my drink.
I’m excited to come try more Flavors.

LOOOOVE THIS PLACE! I’m so happy there’s a new boba place in this area! Nice environment, comfy seating with plenty of tables. Definitely a new hang out spot :)
I got a black sugar milk tea with pudding and boba which is a staple for me to try if it’s ever offered and it was AMAZING. Not too sweet and the pudding was so nice.
Can’t wait to come back. Thanks for he good experience :)

1 star for the quality of the drink I ordered which was a Black Bubble Milk Tea. The «tea» in this drink was nowhere to be tasted. It looks like your average milk tea beverage, but it tastes like a cup of whole milk.
Despite only trying 1 drink from this place, here’s why I gave it 2 stars instead of 1:
–The Milk (tea) quenched my thirst which has got to count for something
–The ambiance of the shoppe is modern and pleasant
–The lady at the cash register was ridiculously nice and patient with me. I originally wanted to use my credit card until I found out there was a $ 5 minimum which then prompted me to scavenge through my bag. I managed to find a $ 100 bill. The lady was very courteous and accommodating throughout the whole checkout process.
–My milk tea was ready before I could even sit down at a table.
I may try this place again or wait for some more reviews and recommendations. Afterall, it wasn’t a horrible experience.

I noticed this place maybe a month ago when I was eating next door to it. I have been wanting to try this place out since then. I am very glad I did! My husband and I came here because I didnt want to go to Tapioca Express. I ordered the large honey milk tea ($ 4.75) with tapioca pearls and my husband got the mango slush ($ 4.50) with tapioca pearls (+.50). My drink tasted great! Enough sweetness in it that it wasnt overbearing.
We also ordered a chicken teriyaki crêpe and spam musubi. Spam musubi was good, not fresh as it was in one of those heated box things. But the chicken teriyaki tasted really good! Never had a crêpe with chicken before so I was surprised at how good it was. I forgot the price of the crêpe, but it was worth it. I will definitely come here more often! I hope by then they will expand their menu for food.
