Honeybear Boba

This is one of my FAVORITE spots for Boba tea! Very clean and welcoming staff they have a unique variety of flavors as well as some organic Larry June merch available for sale. I had the Brown Sugar Milk w/ Crema 🔥🔥🔥 Good Job Larry & Staff. A Must Visit. I forgot to mention the prices are extremely affordable.

Loved the orange creamsicle drink. Taste like orange juice with some salty cream cheese foam in it. I thought it was a weird combo but it surprisingly tasted excellent. The traditional Hong Kong milk tea was excellent as well.

first-time here! & the 🍓🍋 was refreshing! delicious! Will be stopping by when I'm in SF again. 🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊

Not good at all. I ordered 50% sweetness on my drinks and it was so sweet that I had to toss it after one sip. It was ridiculous how much sugar they put if that was 50% and if that wasn't 50% then I'm very disappointed to the attention to detail when it was an online order and it is literally written right there and should be a very routine thing to check for sweetness.

Very good! Both drink we ordered were a bit sweet, so perhaps order less sugar. The strawberry matcha latte with oat milk was excellent.

The shop was a bit dirty and very bare. There were about 5 singular shirts to select from as far as merchandise was concerned.

Best boba shop and finally a Go To Boba shop! So delicious and not overly sweet! We love their Hong Kong and Honey Milk Teas

One of the best boba’s in SF! The tarp milk tea was very flavorful and the boba had a good texture. The Hong Kong milk tea was super good as well! They have cute cups and logo too! I will be back and recommend to anyone who is looking for boba. It’s worth the drive even if it’s not right by where you are.

The boba here is delicious. Best boba I've ever had. The service was awesome, the employees are pretty laid back. I love the corner spot wheres at, it's a nice ambiance.

needed a quick boba break after getting off the Caltrain! The customer service here was great (thanks Jordan) and I love the design of the logo after the owner's dog! Boba consistency is nice - good qq texture and the crema here isn't too sweet!

This spot is located near the 22nd St Caltrain station so we made a quick pitstop. The logo on all the cups and signage is super cute so we were excited to try this spot! We ordered: - Strawberry Matcha with boba - Wintermelon Crema with boba (30% sweet) The Wintermelon crema was pretty good as expected, and the boba consistency was QQ. However I wasn't a huge fan of my Strawberry Matcha. After mixing it as recommended before drinking, I didn't get much of a strong matcha taste, it was almost watery, and the strawberry was leaning closer to the sweetness of preserves which can get a little overwhelming sometimes. I do have a sweet tooth so usually overly sweet additions I don't mind but this one was even a bit much for me.

02.25.2024 - Boba time! After getting my piercing at Body Manipulations, my hubby found a nearby boba spot that was within walking distance. Being a milk tea freak that I am, of course I agree to check this place out. Love that their menu was not overwhelming with "stuff." Several options under each section made my order easy to make. I'm a sucker for crema teas. Something about having a strong/bitter tea base that evenly balances out with the sweet/salty, fluffy crema gets me sipping this all day, everyday. My go-to is always black tea, but Honeybear Boba had Wintermelon with Crema. I ordered the 16oz. Wintermelon Crema, 50% ice and 25% sugar. It took less than 3 minutes for my drink to be ready. Kudos to quick delivery! Such adorable cups! I shake, shake, shake - stab my straw in and I take a big gulp. Oh boy, it tasted like I got 110% sugar. It was super sweet and almost syrupy. But the flavor was delish! Caramel-like, toasty, brûlée goodness. I know with Wintermelon drinks, oftentimes the sugar cannot be adjusted due to its natural sweet state, but it was way too sweet for my taste. I needed the ice to hurry up and melt in order to enjoy my drink. Even after the ice melted, the strong taste of Wintermelon was still present. I absolutely loved this. The people working here appeared to be disconnected though. It felt like "just hurry up and order, and leave" kinda vibe. Still had about an hour before they closed, but felt like we walked in 5min prior to closing. Opps.

Came to the Restoration Hardware nearby and was in the mood for some boba so we stopped by this place on the way there. Cool, trendy store with some cool looking merch out front. We went with the honey milk tea with boba. Pretty average tea and the boba was also not super impressive. At 75% sweetness was still a little too sweet.

I got the honey milk tea in 50% sugar and it was still super sweet! I felt that my drink lacked the black tea taste and was just extremely sweet. Next time I think I'll go for a different drink. The service was fast though. I got my drink soon after ordering. The interior is also pretty cute with some decorations and some merch they are selling. There are no seats though.

Small corner shop, I didn't know what to expect, but it's cute. No seating options, street parking only. My bf wanted to visit since he is a huge Larry June fan! Mostly just boba drinks, we were both surprised there were no juices really. He got some flavored green tea and I got the strawberry matcha. I didn't love the matcha as the drink didn't really blend well together. The strawberry just seemed to be a purée at the bottom and the matcha just feel kind of flat. I would come back but order something different!

Such a cute spot! Had the strawberry matcha latte and it was the perfect boba for a warm day! Ordered it with less sweetness and oat milk, I was surprised they use REAL strawberries and the boba was nice and chewy. Make sure you shake it reaaal good! Service was great too. Would definitely be back to try the brown sugar boba ;)

3.5 stars to be more accurate. I really enjoyed the matcha but the strawberry syrup at the bottom was way too sweet for me. Next time I come back I would order the matcha again but without the strawberry. Would be nice if they were fresh. There's not really any matcha spots in this area of the city so the matcha being great is very much appreciated.

I would visit this boba shop more often if I lived closer. I've been here multiple times and tried different drinks. I've liked everything I have tried so far. The ones I like the most are Uncle Larry's Dreamsicle and Matcha Crema. I am lactose sensitive so I usually sub with oat milk. The boba is nice and chewy. This is quick service with no seating so be prepared to take your drink with you. I like supporting small businesses, and even more reason to support Mr. Larry June. Good job Larry.

It took us a little to find it, but well worth it!! So fresh and delicious!! and they have this cute picture wall!!

One of the few boba shops in Dogpatch! No seating inside with wood walls and some merch. Service was fast here. I ordered 4 drinks with my friends and they all came out with 5 minutes of me ordering. Passionfruit Green Tea - 3/5 This drink was very syrupy. I asked for half ice and half sugar, and I still felt that the passion fruit syrup was too sweet and artificial. Not my favorite for sure

Quick service, friendly. The menu is small but has great selections. I enjoyed the flavor of the mango green tea and also purchased another one that is Uncle John's? It has an orange creamsicle flavor. The neighborhood is decent and the staff were pleasant.

Great quality boba - had a great chewy and fresh texture and bite to it. I tried a few boba flavors and listed my favorites below. All of the flavors were unique and good quality. I would recommend stopping by and trying! 1. Birthday cake milk tea 2. Brown sugar milk tea with boba 3. Creamsicle 4. Green tea In terms of the location and shop- it's located in an area that has easy to find parking which is always nice. The shop wasn't crowded or loud when I went and the service was good as well.

Yummy boba with a wide selection of options. This spot is my sisters favorite place to go when she visits the bay so I had to give it a try. I ordered the brown sugar milk tea with cream foam on the specialty menu. Though I said half sweet it was still fairly sweet so if you like your drinks on the less sweet side you might want to try something else. My sister got the dreamsickle which tasted just like an orange cream in milk tea form. Definitely a fun place to grab boba and it's not where I normally frequent but there's a ton of things nearby to walk around while you enjoy your drink.

Super cute little boba shop in dog patch. The boba is fresh but the drinks come very sweet so ask for 50% if you don't wanna be overwhelmed.

Came here after the giants game since it was close by. Nice location and not somewhere in sf where it's shady if you know what I mean. Pretty quiet area on the weekend I would say. There is street parking around it. Ordered the green tea with boba which was good and also the honey lemon green tea which I would say was pretty strong in the tea area but still good. The place is small and gets hot inside, but you can go outside and wait for your drink. They make your drinks fast and I wish Larry June had more merch other than sweaters and stickers and keychains since I know other ppl were also looking for other kind of souvenirs. Would come here again to try other drinks since they have a lot of choices to choose from.

The drinks are fairly priced and decent boba. I always come when in the area because I'm a Larry June fan. Service is accommodating and helpful. Store is generally clean with a lovely neon photo op! I never fail to take a pic with my drink there.

The drinks were very sweet. Would likely have to order 0% sugar if we return. There is no seating inside, but the drinks were made quickly.

Needed a milk tea/boba break after getting a tattoo and my boyfriend found Honeybear Boba to try. We ordered the Mango Green Tea, Thai Tea, Hong Kong Milk Tea, & Black Milk Tea. The Hong Milk Tea was mine and I was excited to try it since only so many boba places have it. Unfortunately I was not impressed as it didn't taste like Hong Kong Milk Tea. It tasted more like milk. My boyfriend didn't have an issue with the Thai Tea, but it isn't hard to mess up. My best friend thought the black milk tea was just average. I wasn't really impressed with the drinks and think the quality can be increased. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly though!

Local to the Dogpatch neighborhood, Honeybear Boba is one of the most affordable bobas I have gotten in the Bay Area. I was surprised to see that the prices for the smaller size are less than $6.00. This place doesn't have a seating area. It's more of a grab and go place. It's near a couple of restaurants which makes it convenient if you want to go out and eat for dinner. The servers were very kind and welcoming. They were very patient when I asked questions and specifications about the drink I want. I often go for the matcha latte. The other flavors look really cool. They have a neon sign on one of the walls and the walls have a wooden setup, which is really cool. The matcha tasted so good - you can taste the equality and the bitterness of the organic matcha. I would definitely come here again, trying out a different flavor.

Visited Honeybear Boba with some friends while visiting the city. The location is small but it's well organized. I ordered the strawberry matcha and it was good. Wish there was more space to have a place to sit but over all it was a good experience.

I ordered the Taro tea and it was very good! I was looking for options that didn't have caffeine but weren't fruit teas. I felt the sweetness was perfect and I also liked the consistency quite a bit. I'd definitely order the Taro milk tea again. Also, the boba was sooo nice. I've had other flavors from Honey Bear Boba and they haven't been my favorite, so I was pleasantly surprised by the Taro! The staff and service was quick and friendly. They took my order and in under 6 minutes had the boba ready. It was a bit loud so hard to hear but that didn't mean much to me! The ambiance is very neighborhood boba shop plus music venue. I know a local Bay Area artist owns the boba shop, so their influence is very prevalent in the shop!

This is a quaint little Dogpatch neighborhood find. The inside had a modern day vibe with bright colors and simplistic decor. The menu is very to the point & easy to read. The service is friendly, down to Earth, & knowledgeable. I ordered a strawberry matcha with oat milk, honey boba, & 25% sweetness. The flavor was mild, refreshing, & the perfect amount of sweetness for me. The best part is the honey boba which has a great texture & consistency. There's even a cute little park with great shade a block away. We will definitely be back when I'm looking for a midday boba tea pick me up.

Overall good service and cute store, but the birthday cake boba was so sweet. Id honestly suggest getting 0% sugar (I got 25). The milk tea didn't have that decadent flavor, but mostly tasted like sugary water. But the vibes were very cute.

Visited Honeybear Boba as I had a Boba craving and it was the closest nearby. I think it's been my second or third time, trying it, and in the past, I've gotten the brown sugar milk tea. Strawberry Matcha latte is actually one of my favorite combinations so I thought I would give it a try here. My friend was the one who handled the ordering and pick up so I can't speak to that portion of the service, which, in the past has been friendly and efficient, but I can speak to the drink. The Matcha component was very well done and I could taste the realness of the Matcha used. For me, it's always important that matcha drinks feature a distinct and quality matcha flavor or else it isn't worth it. My one critique would be the strawberry portion of the drink, which I thought was a bit lacking. You can see in the photo that there isn't much of a strawberry element in the drink and this is also reflected in the flavor, so I mostly tasted Matcha latte with small hint of strawberry. I think that upping the amount of strawberry in the drink to fully round out the flavors would push this specific drink to five stars

I ordered a strawberry matcha latte on my way home from the grocery store. I think I waited about 10 minutes or so and was the only customer besides a mobile order an hour or so before the store closed. The logo for the store is cute. Who doesn't love a little bear winking with a smile on its face?? But the boba, an extra 50 cents. $7 total. And I had maybe 8 pearls total in the bottom of my cup. They used a ton of ice so the flavor was diluted. Could hardly taste the strawberry, mostly green matcha. I found some sort of plastic stem in my drink which dropped this to a 3 star. I normally don't find anything inedible in my drinks from boba shops. You are able to adjust the sweetness of the drink and the ice according to my receipt, but the cashier didn't tell me that. Neither was it listed anywhere on the menu. I'll give this place another chance since the hours are excellent and I go by this area frequently. However, I am dissatisfied with the product this time around. Edit: Went back for a second time. Ordered ahead of time to pickup. Honey milk tea with extra boba. The pearls felt very processed, over the top chewy. The honey that was supposedly stirred into the drink was condensed in my first sip. Like a really really sweet first sip. After stirring it around the honey blended nicely. This experience affirmed my initial impression. Mid grade boba place despite the popularity Anyways try it for yourself. Just keep in mind the extra charges to actually have boba in your tea.

I really love their strawberry milk boba flavor tea. It comes with their sweet strawberry puree. BUT I knocked off one star because every time I come here they seem to be out of Oat milk! The young gentlemen behind the counter kindly runs out to buy oat milk across the street. Besides that, the boba itself is great!

Great boba spot in the Dogpatch! I came here with a friend on a Thursday around 1:30pm, and it wasn't too busy, which was great for us! I ordered the Uncle Larry's Dreamsicle, which is basically like an orange creamsicle, and a strawberry matcha latte. The Dreamsicle was delicious, and definitely mix it well before drinking to get the full creamsicle experience. The strawberry matcha latte was good, but there was a little too much strawberry, and the matcha flavor wasn't as pronounced. Parking is street parking, and it took us a few rounds of driving around to find a spot nearby. Overall, great boba in the Dogpatch!

I've been wanting a to try Honeybear so I was thrilled when my boyfriend suggested we go! It's a small place and we went on a Sunday around 1, it was raining so it wasn't busy. I got the 16oz Hong Kong milk tea with boba and my boyfriend got the 16oz taro milk tea with boba. Both were soooo good! I already want to go back.

It's a small place that uses space well. One wall has merchandise for sale and another wall with a small help yourself to refrigerated bottle coffee. The refrigerated coffee with cream and sugar was good 2 days later ( I forgot I bought it). The staff is welcoming and friendly. All drinks we ordered had a good balance of flavors and sweetness.

I decided to come again since it's been a while since I last stopped by, and I ordered a strawberry matcha latte, 25% sweet, at the regular size, which is $5.75 before tip. The drink was done within a couple of minutes. I thought it was decent flavor wise since it has a good ratio of matcha, milk, and strawberry bits so I thought it was actually decently sweet at 25% sweetness. However, I don't know if it's a matter of me having a poor judgment of volume by vision and the cup being shorter than most that I see, but the regular size cup, despite being labeled at the store as 16oz, felt and looked like less than 16oz to me, so it didn't feel very worth the cost. That's really the only gripe I had and the reason that I ultimately ended up lowering the rating to 3 stars rather than just 4 stars; I don't recall if I ordered the regular or large size when I last visited, but I only hope there hasn't been a downgrade in the value of size per value.

Good boba for fair prices. My boyfriend liked the strawberry milk boba so much that he drank way more than his half of the boba. Will definitely come back again in the future!

It's recently been a few wet days in San Francisco, and I've been meaning to check out the Boba Naicha place down the street. I was pleasantly surprised with how easy it was to order online. They have a bunch of regular flavors as well as seasoning flavors. Once I paid, it was a 5-minute wait, which was perfect because I had just walked to the shop, and it was waiting for me with my name on it--super cute interior with neon lighting and their honey bear logo. I wish there were indoor seating, but I don't know if they kept it just being a to-go place because many people would be lining up out of the door. I opted for Passionfruit Green Tea with Aloe, one of my favorite go-tos living in Shanghai. They also allow you to customize how much ice you'd like, the toppings you'd like inside your Naicha, and the sweetness level, which was a big deal to me because I'm used to going to places where they put in too much ice! I selected 25% sweetness, but it was still a little too sweet for my tastes - I like less sweetness and tasting more of the passionfruit itself, but the Aloe helped to balance out the overall flavor. I will be back soon, but I will most likely try their milk teas like the Hong Kong, Thai, or Taro teas.

A few minutes walk from the 22nd Street Caltrain so not bad. I thought their sugar levels are pretty distinct, at 50% you could tell there's some sweetness but it's very light and you get the tea flavor more. No dine in, no outlets, no restrooms. Pretty small shop with space inside to merely stand and wait. Green Milk Tea with Boba - very strong tea flavor, balance is definitely skewed to the tea over milk. Boba is chewy with a light flavor, seems to be honey boba not brown sugar. 50% sweetness was close to 25% at other places but that's perfect with me.

After work I wanted to treat myself to some boba and Honeybear Boba is a solid option to go to in SF. It's a small shop with good options and solid customer service. The parking situation is brutal as there is only street parking which is a downside. I wish anyone luck when it comes to parking if you try this place out. Moving onto my order I didn't have to wait long since there isn't really a line. I opted to get the Hong Kong Milk Tea which costs $6 total because I got their 24 oz. size and also added boba which is an extra charge of 50 cents. Pretty standard price wise. I ordered it with 75% sweetness which felt closer to 100% which was the perfect choice for me. Their boba had a nice flavor and chewy texture. I always enjoy a good Hong Kong Milk Tea. It hit the spot and gave me a nostalgic feeling of growing up having a HK Milk Tea with a Chinese breakfast. I'd definitely recommend it. Their cups when I went today sadly didn't have their cute Honeybear branding on the side of their cup that stands out to a lot of other boba shop brands. Of course it was not unbearable that it was missing and the drink itself mattered most. I really liked the interior of the shop and their merch displayed on the walls is a nice touch. There is also no seating inside. Overall I'd recommend it here if you're ever in the area and the only difficult part is finding parking.

Ordered on postmates and 2 out of the 3 drinks we got had pudding as a topping but there was barely any pudding. One of the 2 had slightly more than the other but the best way to describe it would be: the last bits at the bottom of the barrel. Not sure if thats just the norm here but, disappointed as a first time customer.

The cup may look small but it's actually 16oz. The strawberry matcha latte is the best I've ever had in the Bay Area. The strawberry blend is perfect, you could taste the strawberry bits. The milk base is not too sweet. The matcha is refreshing! The taro drink was alright! It tasted a little plain. Not a fan of this drink here unfortunately! But I'll definitely come back for the strawberry matcha latte with boba!

The boba here was pretty decent! I got the black milk tea and enjoyed my drink. The cozy little shop doesn't have any seating so all orders have to be to go. The service is pretty fast though and we were able to get our drinks quickly even though we had a fairly large party.

You already know I had to stop by Larry June's boba shop while being in the Bay! Such a cute little spot with cool vibes. I got myself a simple Honey Milk Tea w/Boba. The cups and logo were so adorable! They sell merch there and I definitely wanted to cop some at the time but didn't get to. My drink was pretty tasty and staff was friendly. Overall a dope spot to hit up if you're in the area!

Such good boba!! I got the roasted oolong milk tea with Boba. I would get double boba next time bc their boba is delicious. I want to try the pudding next time. Service was quick and efficient with ordering through an iPad. They only have one caffeine free tea, would love another one or two options

Honeybear Boba is located in a quieter area of SF. I was drawn by the cute name and logo, even though I am confused why their logo is of a dog when the name is honey bear. Parking is street parking, but there were plenty of parking down the street when I came by. I tried the green milk tea with boba and strawberry matcha latte with boba. The green milk tea had a stronger tea taste and not much creaminess to it. It was also not sweet at all and tasted a bit watered down. The strawberry matcha latte was not sweet at all either, the sweetness for this drink came from solely the strawberry puree. The strawberries kind of overpowered the drink and you can not taste much matcha, so it tasted more like a strawberry milk instead. The boba was kind of slimy and tough as well.

I like getting their peach black tea with boba. The extra peach bits it comes with are . Extra bonus stars for today's service because I clumsily dropped my drink as soon as I stepped out the door.. went back in to buy another one.. and the wonderful cashier offered a replacement gratis.

Way too sweet. Got 25% and it tastes like at least 100%. My friend got 0% sweet last time and she said it still tasted like 100% sweet. Not sure if they don't read the label or if they're just heavy on the sweetener but would not recommend to anyone who regularly gets boba at 75% or below sweetness.

This place is mos def top 5 in the city. The flavors and boba are solid and consistently good. They've extended the menu and merch is on point. Unfortunately the other consistent factor is a minus and that's the attention to detail. I've had four online orders missing a topping. It's on the ticket and I'm definitely getting charged. So as much as I recommend Honeybear I would add CHECK YOUR ORDER. It's something that doesn't happen at a lot of the other top tier spots.

I got the honey milk tea with boba and it was pretty decent, the boba is super good nice and chewy. My friend got the brown sugar and that was my favorite. If you have a sweet tooth definitely try it. Probably one of the best brown sugar milk I've tried in the area. My other friend got the Orange creamsicle and it was mid, I wouldn't have gotten that again. The location is good too, easy to find parking. Staff were kind and drinks came out fast.

Got the taro milk tea with boba and coworker got the strawberry match latte with boba. I usually opt to get less ice for a more concentrated flavor but had forgotten to request that this time and it was surprisingly still good. The boba wasn't too sweet which I preferred; coworker said the SML had a good mix of strawberry and matcha flavor and said was comparable to Boba Guys. It def has a hipster vibe if that's your thing. They also have this game where you try to shoot a mini basketball and make it in the hoop and you'll get a free drink. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take!

I love honeybear boba!! I'm so glad this shop is in this neighborhood! My go to drink is usually the taro milk tea with boba at 75% sweet and the boba is very chewy! I also heard the brown sugar crema drink is delicious so I'll have to try that next time. They're fast at making drinks and there's not usually a huge wait which is great if you don't like long lines. I always peruse and take a peek around the cute merchandise and decor on the wall. This store decor will be sure to perk up your day and mood! Visit this place for an afternoon treat and you won't be disappointed!

Second time here, enough to make me want to tell you how good they are. We've tried the mango green tea, honey milk tea, taro milk tea and boba milk tea which all hit the spot. There's an orange creamsicle that's on my mind to try too. No frills great at what they do and reliable, local spot that I'll keep coming back to

Boba wasn't hard, drink wasn't overly sweet, staff was help and recommended options. Overall great experience and they also have little key chains / stickers which is awesome.
