Honey Berry

Came here just cause I was craving dessert and I was in the plaza. The staff was really friendly when I was ordering. I got the churro ice cream sandwich and a roti bun. The churro was kind of soggy and weird tasting, and it wasn’t cheap either. I’ve had other things on the menu that were better, so that’s why I gave 4 stars. While I was eating at my table one of the workers came up to me and told me the froyo was free this weekend so I could take some. So I did of course. Their boba drinks are alright, the only thing I would come here for are roti buns, gelato, and honey toast, but I had a pleasant experience overall.

If I could, I would give them no stars. I only went to this location because the one in Milpitas is being remodeled. When I went to this Honeyberry location I noticed that a lady was ahead of me and was still waiting for her drink. So, I went to use the restroom first before ordering. Once I got out of the restroom, no one was there. I was just waiting for someone to come out from the back, but no one came. I was saying «hello?» And I could clearly hear them talking in the back about me. I waited until I realized this is not worth it. I was already starting to walk out and I waved at their camera goodbye. Once I was already outside of the Honeyberry, the lady finally decided to come out from the back. But, I just kept walking and left. Go to this Honeyberry if you want bad service :-)

Was expecting something yummy. Churros weren’t crunchy. Almost tasted microwaved. Asked for roti buns instead. Those aren’t bad. But definitely had my hopes up.

Wasn’t too happy with the chocolate butter roti bun and honey dew tea I ordered. I’ve been to this Honey Berry once before and I didn’t have a problem with the food or drinks. However, this time around the roti bun was slightly stale and lacked the familiar crunch we’ve all come to love. My tea was alright, but it tasted more bitter than I was accustom too, especially for being «honey dew» flavor.
The one redeeming quality of this place is the excellent service. Both times I’ve been here the employees have been nothing short of polite and professional to me. I’ve yet to try their ice cream, it looks really good too. 2.5 stars, mostly for the service and the roti buns (when they’re fresh).

I’ve been going to this place on and off. Compared to other HoneyBerry I’ve been to this one is mediocre. The roti buns I’ve gotten here are hit or miss. Sometimes they are nice and fluffy with a nice crunch and other times they are pretty flat and stale… Milk tea here is alright and the gelato isn’t bad either. Personally wouldn’t be my first choice if I had to find get dessert but if you’re low on options amor just have to have a roti bun right away give it a shot, you might get a fresh one.

yeah.
Just skip this one and go to the san felipe honeybe

yeah.
Just skip this one and go to the san felipe honeyberry, much better quality. This honeyberry ain’t the same. I hope this place closes down so that a better boba shop or food place can open up!

I have no idea what I just ate. It surely was not a deliciously warm and crunchy Roti bun that I expected.
Don’t let the cute and chic décor of this location fool you. It’s all smokes and mirrors really.
Let’s be real, I LOVE Roti buns and crave them constantly. I came in just now and only wanted one cream cheese Roti bun, but was told that they only accepted card payments of $ 3 or more. Uhm, excuse me… where is the sign for that? If you’re going to require a minimum charge on card, at least put it up so that your patrons are aware. I ended up having to get two Roti buns, which usually I wouldn’t have minded had they been the deliciously warm and crunchy buns I expected.
Although the cashier was nice, she asked me if I wanted my buns warmed up after placing them into the bags already. Uhm… is it not procedure to warm up the buns? Am I suppose to go home and warm it up myself? I told her yes and she just threw them into the oven while still in the bag. I figured maybe the heat would be hot enough to deliver me my expected bun. Boy was I wrong.
I left the place and took a bite into my first bun… it was slightly warm, similar to that of eating lukewarm phở. Not appetizing at all. Some parts of my bun were even room temperature to say the least.
It was not a pleasant experience at all. I ate my second bun and it was slightly warmer, similar to that of toast you let sit in the toaster 15 minutes after you toasted it up. But still, it was not melt in your mouth quality and that’s what I always loved about these things.
Everyone is better off going to the location on San Felipe. Better customer service and better quality of food. ¹⁵⁄₁₀ would never come here again.

Roti Bun plain goes great with iced coffee on the go also opened late 11pm. Their Gelato is amazing must try atleast once

Honeyberry has longed ceased being froyo only. offers different kinds of desserts
menu: froyo (french vanilla, dutch chocolate, pomegrate raspberry), waffles, shaved ice, toast, milk teas, teas, gelato, etc.
eats: chocolate butter roti (1.95)
–slight chocolate, buttery, same roti tasre
–only low priced item present.
drips:
–quick service, one person on duty (same as other stores)

Why do these people own a boba place? They don’t know shit. Not only did it take them 15 minutes to make one drink and one honey toast with TWO workers, and me & my boyfriend being the only two in the store– I did not get the drink I thought I was ordering. I drink boba everyday of my life. My green milk tea is usually white. My drink comes out green, and as I soon as I come to get it and he already begins explaining that green milk tea is green. Like he was a boba expert. Why didn’t he make that clarification before making my drink ??? Why would you make a drink knowing that your menu is obviously misleading to people? They gave me matcha, there’s a difference
**and their management has the balls to continue to say I’m wrong. Please go to a real boba place and educate yourselves ! And there is no matcha flavor under milk tea on your menu. Thanks. And the toast came before the boba so you’re excuse for why it took so long does NOT make sense.
The frozen yogurt machine has been broken for months according to reviews, and was still broken during my visit.
Also my boyfriend’s small gelato was laughable. Why do you have 3 different sized cups if you don’t even fill them up? Not even half way!
This place is POOR/​CHEAP, instead– go to Cool Tea Bar, gong cha, soyful, meow tea, or even a different honey berry location– this place is garbage.

Unless this Honey Berry switches management, I’m NEVER coming back to this location again.
I’ve been to this Honey Berry location a couple of times since 2012 & it was under decent management. Three years ago, I was able to buy warm & crispy roti buns without feeling cheated by the workers. Recently this Honey Berry served me semi-​stale roti buns & one particular worker tried sooo hard to sell me their food. Really? Honey Berry’s roti buns should speak for themselves. In this case, the roti buns were semi-​stale & deformed!
Also, I was unaware this Honeyberry had a minimum credit card charge. There were no signs of «credit card minimum» present anywhere in the store or at the cashier. For customers convenience, I suggested to the worker/​manager to put up a «credit card minimum» sign for customers. His response? He doesn’t want to put «credit card minimum» signs because «it’ll turn customers away from the store.» Annoyed by his response, I paid him in a dollar & coins for my two semi-​stale roti buns.
Bottom line: this Honeyberry serves VERY disappointing roti buns & has terrible customer service.

I try to eat healthy as much as I can, but Honey Berry is my guilty pleasure! I always get a waffle gelato when I come here. Let me just start off by saying the waffle is made fresh, so it takes around ⁵⁄₁₀ minutes to come out, but it is worth the wait! It comes out warm and fresh with two scoops of gelato and fresh fruits on top. I usually get strawberry gelato, (and salted caramel, if they have it). It’s a pretty big dessert, but I usually tell whoever came with me to order their own, this is my cheat food! Lol
The owners are friendly, and of course the roti buns are good too.

I fell in love with the Roti buns here. Omg this place is so much friendlier than snow crave. I prefer this place for friend gathering of snow crave is filled with people… Get a roti bun

My order was messed up twice. The owner didn’t come out until the second time just to collect more money from me. I ordered a chocolate roti bun with only gelato ice cream. Instead I received a banana, strawberry, Nutella and chocolate gelato roti bun. The young worker didnt understand that I ordered 2 buns, so I had to be charged for a second bun but at a higher price for no reason. I don’t blame the young man because he was trying his best to serve and make the food at the same time.
The chocolate roti bun did taste good but because it was hot the gelato melted too fast making it more like a bread ice cream. Don’t think I will come back any time soon as there are plenty of other ice cream shops in San Jose.

I had the «roti bun» is what they call it. Best tasting desert by far. I also had them put in «Nutella, bananas, and strawberries». Oh and I can’t forget the «gelato»!!! You can not beat the price for this great of tasting deserts. Not to mention the customer service was the best. The new owner was super nice and really helpful. Overall really great place I give it 5 stars!

Finally tried the Roti Bun, which came much recommended and I have to state that it did not disappoint. We ordered couple and my favorite is the banana and nutella.
Aside from that, I had an opportunity to speak directly with the owners and they’re the nicest people. I love that this is a local shop and the owners genuinely want to know what people think of the food and what they can do to make it better.
Look for Mr. and Mrs. Sharma, the husband and wife duo running this place and say hey. Great place and i’ll be back!

I had the plain roti buns for the first time today and loved it but nothing else on the menu looked appealing. The gelato in the freezer didn’t look very appetizing either.
There is only one person working in the store and he was accommodating but because he’s alone, it took a little longer for food to be ready.
3 stars for a good roti bun. Minus 2 for the unappealing atmosphere (there was a lot of sun exposure at the sitting booths and nothing to block the sunlight –burning my neck.) and for the slow service.

The roti buns are the only reason why I go to Honey Berry. Once you enter the place, the smell of roti buns are baked and being warmed up. There are 3 flavors, plain, yogurt cream cheese, and chocolate chip, my favorite is the chocolate chip. There’s a filling inside and when you bite into the bun it has a slight crunch and once you taste the bread, it’s tasty. It smells like coffee but it doesn’t have the taste. They usually take a few minutes to warm up the roti buns in the oven. I’ve also tasted their milk tea and smoothie drinks with boba and it’s decent. Their service is a bit slow because it seems like only one person is working there everytime I go so while I’m waiting to order my roti buns the other customer is going at it taste testing the Gelato with a party of 4+ kids, and that’s not fun.

New worker/​owner? They seem like they didn’t what they were doing.
The Roti bun was good, the original milk tea was okay, the peach smoothie was horrible!
After leaving my peach smoothie out for awhile. It separated into water and ice cream? Gross! Just ice and ice cream, no actual fruits.
If you’re craving for roti buns, just go to the milpitas location.

I love Honey Berry but this review is for this location.
Pretty slow and the menu is different than the one in Milpitas. Every time I come here, I order a sundae and my ice cream is kinda melted by the time I get it. It’s like it just sits on a plate for a while before i get it.
I had their taro milk tea with pearls and i could not even take 2 sips. It was just gross. I will stick with the location in Milptas which is bigger and has fun games to play while you enjoy your desserts.

Honey Berry = roti buns. If you haven’t tried a roti bun ever in your life, then you need to drive to a Honey Berry near you and get one right now.
My favorite is the chocolate butter one, the cream cheese and plain are cool too, but who doesn’t love buttered mocha bread? Their milk teas are also great. As for froyo, it’s okay. But their ice cream is delicious! I don’t think this location has board/​card games for their customers though for you to just chill and hang out.

I think about Quang every time I crave for roti buns. Quang is a tattoo artist whom made me eat one because my session was long (we were in the 3^rd hour). I’m not into Asian baked goods at all. I like my desserts sweet and rich but for some reason, Honey Berry’s roti bun stole my heart.
— cream cheese roti buns
— chocolate roti buns
Buy one get one half off for the roti buns baked from the day prior. By itself was good but if you ask them to warm it up, it will still melt in your mouth.
Been craving one forever. Sadly, not a Honey Berry conveniently located where I work or live so last Sunday I made it my single quest to come here. This is new to me. A location located in the plaza w/​In N Out off of Tully Rd. and Capitol Expwy. A cute, clean, small, bright, and inviting dessert spot.
— gelato
— frozen yogurt
— roti buns
— brick toasts
— shaves ice
— caffeinated drinks
— etc.
The girl that was there was super sweet and soft spoken. In the end I got the chocolate but one get one free deal and 2 cream cheese roti buns.
I was extremely satisfied after.
It’s sweet and light; almost guilt free.

***THIS REVIEW IS MOSTLY FOR THE SERVICE***
Service: 1 Star
Food: 4 Stars
I came here with my family last summer: my folks, sis and her fiancé, and cousin and his girlfriend visiting from out of town. We wanted to go somewhere nice and yummy to hang out before having an early dinner.
I LOVE roti buns so I was very happy to come here. Its a cute little café and were lucky to find a table that fits all 7 of us!
So I decided to order for our party one of every roti bun flavor they had (3) and a taro flavored tea boba drink.
Right after I placed my order, the cashier girl told me that it will take 15 minutes for the buns to be done (just like the sign said). So I waited…15 minutes later the buns still weren’t ready. SHe told me 15 more minutes. We waited 15 more minutes. While I waited I noticed she was serving roti buns to customers who came AFTER me! So I had to speak up. Pretty much if I hadnt said anything, I would have probably never gotten my buns! Grr!!! I had to ask other servers there for my buns because the other girl would give me my buns!
I must have waited at least half an hour for them. We tried all 3 flavors:
PLAIN
BUTTER
CREAM CHEESE
These buns were really good. Warm, fresh, flaky… sweet but not too sweet. I really enjoyed them. It’s a shame how terrible the service was. I wished I could reach back into thier tip jar… hehe, just kidding :)
The atmosphere is nice. I cute small place to meet up with friends to hang out… for high schoolers though. It has a very young feel.
This place should have a drive thru service, haha. I just want my roti buns!!!
