Factory Tea - Reserva de mesa

I'm pleasantly surprised that factory tea bar has kept up its quality of boba and food after being around for so many years.I recall coming here a few times when I was in early college. This place used to be so busy, I usually would get the boba, maybe get to sit for a bit, and dip. It was very fast paced and even though the drinks were good, nothing stood out at the time besides how dark the interior was.After a decade or so, I finally got the chance to visit again and I was impressed by most of the changes there's an expanded area for claw machines, arcade games, very nice looking new pool tables, ping pong tables, and even karaoke rooms!So we wanted to try out the karaoke rooms and got th...

My friend and I came on 4/30 for National Boba Day! This was my first time here. It's located in the Mission District in San Gabriel.I heard about the tower of boba that serves more than a couple people, so I was interested in that. We arrived around 230pm, and it was a little busy inside, but not too busy.There's a gaming room, pool table area, and karaoke rooms! We didn't play any games or sing that day, but I want to come back with more friends to enjoy the games.They also have a small outside sitting area, which we took advantage of. There was no one out there, and my friend wanted to get some social media content done, so it was the perfect spot for us. The patio is located in the front...

This Factory Tea Bar location is definitely a must visit in the SGV for their newly renovated arcade and karaoke rooms. They have Fun House which includes claw machines, ping pong, pool tables, arcade games, and karaoke rooms. I had a lot of fun playing these activities while enjoying their drinks. Parking can be pretty tight in their small parking lot though.Their boba drinks aren't spectacular and are pretty mediocre but they make a nice refresher while hanging out with friends. They have a spacious lounge and plenty of seats available. I tried their newer drinks on the menu which they recently released, the OJ chemistry which is a Jasmine oolong milk tea, and the Aloha which is a tropical...

I had a really disappointing experience here. The service was terrible. There was one girl who just seemed not to care; when we brought back a drink that was supposed to be a slush but was mostly melted and tasted like an iced drink, she handled the situation poorly. Instead of being helpful, she was rude and dismissive while we tried to explain the issue. When we requested a remake, she carelessly tossed the drink in the trash for no apparent reason. I've been coming here since high school, and I've never had such a negative experience; in the past, they would just remake a drink without any hassle. I don’t want to blame the entire staff, but this particular girl with dark blonde hair who w... Reserva una mesa ahora

On a positive note, they have longer hours compared to other boba shops, plenty of seating, and parking is available, even though the lot is small. They also have arcade games and karaoke available, and I noticed they now accept credit cards! I remembered an old review mentioning they only accepted cash, which shows how much boba shops have evolved to attract more customers with cashless options. However, there were issues during my visit: the power went out twice on a weeknight! The music was quite loud, making it hard to hold a conversation. Overall, this place seems more suited for twenty-somethings or teenagers looking to hang out. I honestly can’t see how anyone could study here; it fe...

I placed my order at 9:04 PM (as noted on my receipt), selecting three items. One drink was ready in about five minutes, but my other two items didn't arrive until 9:47 PM. I handed my wife her drink so she could join our friends while I waited for my order. A young staff member noticed I was still waiting and inquired about my order. After checking my receipt, she realized they had forgotten to prepare my drink and food. She apologized once she brought them to me, which I appreciated, but it still wasted a lot of time that I could have spent with my group. Regrettably, I will not be returning. I understand that sometimes mistakes happen, but this was a significant oversight and has turn...

I had the thai milk tea here recently. In the past the drinks and snacks have been decent for the price, but I was somewhat disappointed with the taste of the Thai milk teas today. The drinks tasted rather bland. The drinks did come in sturdy drink cups with tops that will prevent any spilling. Factory tea bar still isn't too bad of a place if you want to come and chat with friends. Albeit it can get noisy there if you're aiming for easy to listen to conservations. They've got tables and booths for studying too. There's also some pool and ping pong tables in the back.

This place is a great hangout spot as it is spacious and there are more activities than a typical tea spot.My friends and I enjoy some of their food like popcorn chicken and fries. We did try elote fries once but I wasn't a huge fan. The mayo taste was overwhelming and weirdly sweet (maybe emphasis on the Asian fusion elote). I'd say the drinks especially the teas are not good to me. I make much better tea at home for a fraction of the cost. The service and parking tend to vary. I would still say this is a great hangout spot but I would not order any drinks. Reserva una mesa ahora

I have good memories here going karaoke with my friends and I made some good memories again trying some of their new drinks.Rock N Roll: This red oolong milk tea was topped with tiramisu foam which had a good level of sweetness. I would call it more of a dessert drink because it was extra creamy but addictingly good.Peach Oolong Tea Cold Brew with Sea Salt Cream: This one comes unsweetened but the fresh peach and boba add a slight hint of sweetness. The sea salt cream is also delicious and it makes me want to try all the other drinks with the same cream.
