Junbi Matcha & Tea - Rowland Heights

One of the best and most consistent places if you want good matcha drinks. Visit the Rowland heights location often and I rarely ever have any complaints about their drinks. Healthier and much more consistent than the other drinks place on the plaza. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. The place itself is small, but has enough seating if you wanted to stay a bit. You can order off a device or from a staff who can help you decide on your drinks From their seasonal selection to their core menu, I love all their matcha drinks. If you want something with more caffeine, you can always have a “dirty” option with an espresso shot. My go to drink is always the guava matcha cold brew with chia seeds. Delicious and refreshing. Great balance of matcha and guava flavor.

This was a cute little place near the ramen spot - I wanted to give this 5 but the only reason I’m giving it a four because of the way they fill the ice cream - it is in fact hollow in the middle so you definitely get jipped - idk why they do that ? Other ice cream spots don’t do this so you get more ice cream overall ! Bummer because the flavor is decent ! Just look at the other reviews with the pictures of the hollowed out ice creams I wish I took one of my own :(

The menu options at Junbi are so wide, it takes a minute to pick what drink you're feeling that day. Lately I have been appreciating the classic Matcha cold brews. Strawberry and Mango are my faves. I haven't tried their food options yet but they look good. I also got some of the Miffy collab merch and it is the cutest!

I would say I'm very impressed by the Matcha Cold Brew series drinks! I've tried most of them, and each one is very flavorful. If you also love matcha, I definitely recommend them!

If you want to drink some bomb matcha drinks. Junbi is the place to go. I never been to a place where they have fresh matcha like they do. The way they make their matcha drinks are perfect. It's not too sweet, it's just right. The food they have there is also incredibly drooling for and it's called the onimatcha. The employees are kind and they are quick with serving your order. My personal favorite is the aloe matcha. All in all this place is amazing I recommend this place if you are in desire a very healthy drink, but at the same time fulfill your tastebuds.

Drinks are solid, mostly matcha drinks, with three different types of plant based milk options - oat, coconut, and soy. They have a variety of toppings as well. No vegan soft serve. Few tables, no public restrooms.

One of my favorite boba spots to go to, especially since they specialize in matcha drinks and matcha is my favorite. Their drinks are refreshing and just the right amount of sweetness. I live 30 minutes away and I always make go here or when I'm in the area. Their onigiri is also very good and will tide you over if you are dying for a snack. Service is super helpful and friendly. Definitely will recommend. I recommend getting: their matcha cold brew that come with fruit puree: my current favorite is guava and blueberry and you can add milk if you would like. I often get less sweet in my drinks. I also recommend blended ceremonial matcha if you want something similar to a frappe or dessert after a good dinner.

This location has gone downhill. Used to come here all the time, almost weekly in 2023-2024 for their blueberry matcha cold brew, but at some point they started skimping out on the matcha concentration. It used to be a vibrant green color with a pleasant matcha taste but the last 10 times I tried it (I cannot believe I even gave them that many chances) it was pastel green and only tasted like milk. I’m not sure if this location has changed their recipe but I’m just really disappointed that I don’t have a go-to matcha place anymore ):

Date of visit: 1/24/25 and multiple times after it has changed to Junbi Love the drink here. Most of the time it's the blueberry matcha for me and the kids. Today, however, I tried their cold brew ceremonial matcha no sugar with lychee bits for topping. Yep! Bits of real lychee FRUIT and NOT lychee jelly. I must have lived under the rock for not knowing about this until now T.T Will def come back for more drinks with the lychee bits for topping lol.

I visited Junbi after having dim sum in the same plaza. There is a ton of parking and in this plaza so that should never be an issue if you were to visit Junbi. We got to the store right as they opened and their staff was very attentive in helping my party order. Since it was our first time at Junbi, we also received recommendations from the staff. Great service. I got the Matcha Swirl along with the Mango Matcha. The Matcha swirl was like any other matcha-flavored ice cream. I did like the fact that it was not super sweet but overall it was pretty underwhelming to be honest as I have heard from a lot of my friends how good their ice cream was. Maybe I just chose the wrong flavor and will need to choose a different one when I revisit. The Mango Matcha drink was much better! The amount of matcha they used was great as the mango was actually very subtle. The ratio was perfect and I enjoyed it so much. They also have ceremonial matcha for sale and I got the Miffy collab tin as well. If you need a quick matcha pick me up, this is a good place to go!

Kind of hard to go wrong at a Junbi, although this one almost did-- they were (temporarily, thankfully) out of spoons! Staff were upfront about that tho, and had the menu updated accordingly til more spoons showed up. Very much typical for a Junbi, just a handful of seats, constantly busy to the point they felt full but not crowded, and the matcha soft serve is consistent just like every other Junbi.

Gave me a whole new prospective of matcha! I had no idea it can be mixed this way, I loved it! Price was decent too, I much prefer this over boba milk tea no! Inside was nice, they had board games for those who want to hang out and ordering can be done via person or iPad.

I got the matcha vanilla swirl soft serve! It was good. Slightly too sweet for me. And also I liked that the matcha wasn't super strong. There wasn't much space to sit inside so I think it's more of a grab and go type of place. The service was nice. They allow you to sample the different soft serve flavors. And when I chose my flavor, I was surprised it was such a generous portion! I could have shared with someone. I am def interested in coming back and trying their drinks. :)

04/01/2019 Did you know Sip Matcha donates proceeds to the Woolsey-Hill Fire? All you have to do is make a purchase. I really like the green tea soft serve matcha with mochi because it's not too sweet like most ice cream or soft serve. The mochi is just regular gluten rice ball that is not sweetened and that's just how I like it. I wonder how you enter their customer appreciation giveaway to win the Junbi Gift Card? Do I just look on their IG page and wait for my name to be announced? Let's go here and check it out again.

Junbi is still a solid spot to get matcha drinks. I tried the Madagascar vanilla recently and it was a pass. The guava matcha latte was so good though.

Why was the hojicha latte here so good? I was pretty shocked at how fragrant and nutty it was! Not too much milk too :) The staff here are quick and super sweet. They helped me figure out what Miffy merch was in-stock.

I love coming to Junbi whenever I'm in the plaza! My favorite drink is the blueberry matcha and sometimes I sub for oatmilk. Perfect for any season and the blueberry taste is refreshing and sweet. There's some seating inside; bright and vibrant! Some outdoor seating too. Quick service :) I also have ordered the junbi matcha tins for my bridesmaids and they finished it so quickly. Always a great gift for your matcha lovers

Finally got to try this place in September, and I enjoyed myself. Always on the look out for matcha that just hitssss, I knew I had to get two drinks for myself here LOL. I got the matcha guava and the strawberry chrysanthemum. I was excited for both. I always get my drinks 50% sweetness and that's how I got both of these drinks. I liked the matcha guava but I felt like the matcha didn't hit as hard as I would like lol...It was subtle and the guava was "not too sweet," so you know I enjoyed the guava part. I definitely wish the matcha was stronger? I put a question mark because I don't know the right term but I would like for it to be more bitter? More matcha-y for lack of better word hahaha. I LOVED the strawberry chrysanthemum!! My two favorites combined into one great drink. I usually hate floral flavors but chrysanthemum is my exception and I'm an absolute sucker for strawberry. I feel like the 50% sweetness was just right and "not too sweet" so you know I liked it HAHAH. Would probably come back to Junbi just for that! I do want to try their other drinks though!

Best matcha blueberry drink in town! Never had anything like this and always my go to drink whenever I go! It's a weird combo but still so good! It's always freshly made to order and never frozen! Service is always fast and friendly which I like!

Update: They have the Miffy collaboration happening right now and if you get all 4 drinks and collect the cup sleeves, then they will give you a keychain! I usually go to the Junbi in Rowland Heights since it's closer to me! I haven't tried the onigiri flight yet just due to always eating before. The staff and service are ALWAYS amazing!!! I ordered a pretty big order of drinks (12+ drinks) before and they made it pretty well! The ambiance is average! Tip: There's ample parking in the plaza! However, Junbi is small so there's not too much space! But you can casually hang out outside since there's tables and chairs outside!

I did online ordering through Yelp for the Miffy orange creamsicle matcha latte. I wasn't expecting the wait, but it took about 25 minutes for my drink to be ready for pick up. They were pretty busy on a Thursday afternoon probably because of the collaboration. The drink was alright. It defnitely tastes like an orange creamsicle but it would've been better if the drink had a stronger matcha taste. I was bummed to find out that adding a ceremonial matcha shot costed $1.30 and that it wasn't included. I went with regular whole milk and no toppings and thought the drink was pretty expensive for what it is while the matcha wasn't ceremonial grade. Not sure if it was because I did an online order or if they were sold out of the miffy cup sleeves but I didn't get one. Seating is very limited with 2-3 small tables but there is ample free parking.

Before Junbi made its way to Orange County, I would seize any opportunity to head to Rowland Heights for their Yuzu Matcha drinks and a refill of their blueberry matcha. This location remains a standout, and I honestly prefer it over their Irvine spot. You can't go wrong with any of their beverages, especially on hot summer days. If you find yourself in the area, give them a try. While parking can be a bit tight, you're bound to find a spot.

Today was the launch of Junbi & Miffy! The store was adequately stocked with merchandise!! The menu is available on the screens, paper & laminated print in store with lots of variety to cater to the cravings of coffee lovers, latte enthusiasts and fruit tea connoisseurs! There's tons of street and underground Parking, with designated ADA & 20 minutes parking. Depending on the time you go, drivers are circling around like sharks on the street level. Some people are rude and will take your spot, despite clearly signaling you're waiting for the parking spot. The shop is vibrant, clean with 2-3 small seating areas. It gets crowded quickly, and isn't conducive to hanging out & chatting. I typically do pick up. They are on DoorDash :) however the miffy drinks & merchandise are not available via DoorDash at this time. There is a display of miffy items for sale, next to the self order kiosk. You must purchase miffy items through the register. They'll ring you up and go to the back end of the store to pick up your merchandise. They've got bamboo stickers, tins of daily ceremonial matcha, glass tumbler with straw & straw cleaner by shirts, tote bag & pin! The staff were wonderful in sharing the t shirts run small and will shrink! Thank you Joey & Kristin! The Miffy keychain is a trade in program. Purchase any 4 drinks from the miffy menu & you can choose from 2 Miffy design keychains (Miffy peaking out from behind a junbi drink or Miffy with an orange shirt sitting behind cups of matcha tea). The Rowland Heights location is currently out of the pin, the glass tumbler & the tea shirt with Miffy's face painted on it (not the pocket t-shirt). They will restock next month & may be offering products online. They cannot sell the items on display, trust me, I went shopping for answers. I called the day before the Miffy event to gauge, how busy it would be, and the staff member with me a lot of people have been calling about the event. My mom went to Junbi for me since I had work! She arrived at 10 am (shop opens at 11am) & was 4th in line. I got everything I wanted (the pin & non- pocket t-shirt are cuter in person- GET IT!). My mom was out within 20 minutes!! The line went from Junbi to JJ bakery once she was out, around 11:20am. Thank you to the Junbi staff who saved a shirt for me, when I came to exchange my shirt size. Yes, you still wait in line. Check your stickers and tin before you leave. Luckily I had to drive back to return a shirt, so I exchanged my sticker. It was missing spots of paint and looked burnt in some areas. I got a freebie sticker, which made my day! :) thank you!!

They currently have a collaboration with Miffy, so I stopped by out of curiosity. I tried the Miffy's Orange Creamsicle matcha latte. The drink looks very visually pleasing--separated by distinct layers of orange, white and green. If you're a fan of orange creamsicle, this would be your drink. It was refreshing for me and not too sweet since I asked for less sweet. There's still some Miffy merchandise and it's pretty cute...got the glass cup for a gift. :) the shirts feel quite soft in person and not thin, so quality seems pretty decent.

I've been wanting to visit Junbi forever especially since I've been following June one of the co founders forever. Just never really gotten the chance to. It's drinks w all things Matcha. They also sell merchandise here. I've come to Slurp Ramen or Half & Half, which is located in the same outdoor strip mall. Finally this time after Jazz Cat, decided to come here per my girlfriends recommendation. What we ordered ~ Lavender Honey Matcha Latte. It was seasonal and came on the last day to try it. Boba was good and chewy, just how I love it. The drink itself was pretty yum! Highly recommended. The honey was overly sweet nor the lavender was strong. It was subtle. Loved it. The boba shop is simple and nicely clean, Only one long indoor bench seating w a table I recall, Not too big. Would love to return to try the Strawberry Matcha, what my girlfriend got and usually gets whenever she visits and recommends it. Service was fast and friendly. Lots of parking available.

This is the best matcha place! Within the top 3 matcha places I've been to. I liked that the matcha was clean and simple, yet with a strong flavor. A lot of places tend to over-sweeten or water down their matcha but this place has a good balance.

We recently stopped by this establishment after hearing rave reviews, and we were not disappointed. The matcha flavor was rich and authentic, unlike the diluted versions often found elsewhere. I opted for the soft serve matcha vanilla swirl, which was generously portioned and easily sharable. My sister selected the matcha espresso affogato soft serve, comprising two separate cups that allowed her to pour the espresso affogato over the soft serve. Additionally, we ordered the sea salt, caramel, banana, matcha blended, and cold mango matcha cold brew. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their chosen treats. The service was exceptional, with the cashier being particularly informative and helpful during our first visit.

Been here once and still thinking about the orange matcha creamsicle tea I ordered. It was delicious. Pretty bummed there isn't one closer to me. But next time I'm in area I will for sure go back an order.

Most recently 3.5/5 stars I always love coming here, my favorite Junbi spot out of all of the ones I've visited and I've come here since it was called Sip Matcha. Kirsten is always so amazing I came here last time with my bf and there was also a random group of 8 (so 10 people total) that wanted to come get matcha. I admit, really close to closing time (around 9:50pm on a Saturday evening) and we all really wanted to come to Junbi but unfortunately came to a closed store. I checked the instagram for the location and no announcements of early closure so it was disappointing finding that they're closing earlier than what was posted for a Saturday. Staff has also been slacking in a sense of friendliness from the previous time I came. Maybe an off day or two

I always come here whenever I'm craving something with matcha. I've tried many drinks from their menu and they all taste really good. I love the quality of the matcha that they use and have even bought their matcha powder to use at home! They also have matcha soft serve and onigiri too which are also yummy. The workers are always really nice and make the drinks very fast.

Matcha is everything you would think of going i to this place. From match tea kits to powder match. The menu is so unique i never would have thought matcha yuzu and pomegranate would be amazing taste. Refreshing and delicious. I myself ordered a swirl soft serve with red bean paste. You can't go wrong with matcha latte. This little space is so inviting with options to stay and play games. This time they had a lucky red envelope mystery price. We won a glass cup, sticker and key chain.

The store is located in a big plaza. It was easy to find parking. There are a few tables inside if you wanted to eat there. Thru IG influence I was super excited to try this place so ended up trying a bit everything on the menu. I got the flight of 3 rice balls which includes salmon, mentaiko, and spam & egg. Very nice packaging but the flavor was a bit lacking and was just too much rice. The portion of rice to filling was off. I tried the matcha latte 0% sugar with almond jelly. They say it's made inhouse. The alond jelly was good. The matcha latte wasn't anything special. I also got the yuzu dragonfruit matcha coldbrew 50% sugar. It was OK. I was hoping for more intense matcha without milk in this one. Lastly also got lychee oolong tea with milk at 50% sugar. Of all the teas I think this one was most unique. It had real bits of lychee which gave for a nice flavor. I was just disappointed for a matcha spot their matcha wasn't too special. I do like that they have a large large variety of flavored matcha that you're not likely to find elsewhere. Would I drive 40min to get this matcha? Not likely. If I was in the neighborhood maybe. They do have alot of choices in terms of teas. Staff was very friendly.

Cold mango matcha latte: unfortunately a 1/5. I tasted no matcha and mango at all. The mango bits were crunchy and lacked a lot of flavor. The milk was overpowering. I'm quite disappointed as this place is supposed to be known for their matcha Service: 4/5 standard interaction and made the drinks quickly

This is right around the corner of Pelicana Chicken and has a unique menu! The inside is a little small but nice if you're hanging with one other person. Drink: good! I really like their almond jelly. It's hard to find a place that has a nice silky jelly that hits the spot! Their strawberry chrysanthemum is very refreshing as well. I can't wait to try their other drinks! Service: good! Both servers were very helpful and super nice. They were warm and friendly :)

Love the ceremonial matcha cold brew with no sugar...so refreshing and healthy! The staff is really friendly and the drinks are made fast even with a line out the door. The seating is minimal but this is the kind of place you're usually in and out of, so works fine. They have a lot of miffy stuff bags, shirts, etc. great place and reasonable price!

If you are a matcha lover, please come here. I didn't order anything matcha but instead tried out their tea. Ordered the regular size green milk tea. Flavor of the tea was just right, not too strong and not too weak. You can also adjust the ice and sugar level. Not in percentage form though. Just less ice, no ice, or more ice. Same goes for sugar level. They do have a background wall for taking nice insta photos with your drink. Solid drink place.

Plenty of parking, located in Seasons Place Plaza. Service was quick and helpful. Their drinks have vegan options. My drink was okay, ordered the Matcha Mango Latte. Can adjust the ice and sweetness level.

I usually frequent the location near UCLA but decided to visit this one since I was nearby. I usually order the strawberry matcha with oatmilk and boba and it was just as delicious as their other location. The boba was perfectly sweet and chewy and the matcha was delicious. I also tried out their salmon rice ball and it was okay but the rice was heavily vinegary that day. Hopefully that was a fluke and their rice balls are improved.

I originally first tried Junbi in Westwood and came to the Rowland Heights location recently. I love coming to Junbi for decent matcha. I saw that they had Hojicha options on their menu so I would definitely love to get that next time! When I come to Junbi I usually like trying out a new flavor since they offer a lot of different flavors. This time I just ordered a regular iced matcha latte. I ordered on the kiosk and it was done pretty quickly! I was just a little bothered with the cups being sticky after made so would recommend to just clean more thoroughly next time. Will still look forward to coming back!

the miffy x junbi collab is so cute! the workers said they will be restocking their miffy collab items on sat 10/26/2025 just fyi ~ junbi never fails to impress me with their perfectly ratio'd drinks of tea & milk! not too sweet and brewed to perfection imo. the hojicha & hojicha with matcha shot drinks were really good. definitely would get again parking: pretty hard to find a spot at times because its in the shared lot with slurpin ramen bar & pelicana chicken. but large lot with underground parking!

Too many people today. There was some mix up on other people's drinks. It was quite a wait for ours. Miffy promotion : collect 4 different drink sleeves and exchange it for a Miffy keychain.

This review is primarily for the Junbi x Miffy collab! (: Service was super quick and effective, especially since it was the Miffy launch day. Random note, but I always love the music that plays at this location haha. We ordered two drinks from the collab: Miffy's Orange Creamsicle Matcha Latte = 3/5. I love matcha in general, but this matcha + orange combination in particular wasn't quite my cup of tea. I think the orange overpowered the matcha just a tad. and Boris' Blended Orange Creamsicle. = 4/5. Tasted like orange vanilla ice cream in a cup, and not too sweet! I preferred this one a bit more. I might try the other drinks in the line to try and get the free keychain if you collect all 4 of the Miffy cup sleeves to trade in.

After lunch we walked over to this establishment. Friendly staff. My Fresh lychee in my delicious cold black tea was refreshing on such a hot day. I'm grateful the cashier recommended it! All of us got something different, the boy with his strawberry, half sugar, with oat-milk boba drink and Rdawg ordered something he really enjoyed. We will return when we are in the area.

Came here with a couple friends after dinner for some drinks. You order at a kiosk of at the front counter. I got a matcha drink with passion fruit in it which isn't my usual go-to but it was alright to me. The drinks cane out quickly and the workers were nice when they fixed my friend's drink. There arent a few tables there, so we grabbed chairs and crowded around one of the booths.

My friend took me here after lunch, and normally I'm not a big fan of matcha since it can be bitter. However, Junbi has the best matcha. I ordered the one with strawberry to sweeten the taste, and it was delicious. You can use the kiosk to place your order or ask the server for help. The place is small, but there is outdoor seating.

Junbi updated their menu. Their previous Blueberry Milk Tea is now Blueberry Matcha Cold Brew. You can order either and it'll be the same drink. It is still hands down the best Blueberry milk tea drink I've had and one of the most unique Milk Tea drink - creamy and just the right amount of blueberry sweetness. I would advise against getting the dry blue berry if they ask you if you want that as an add-on. Having to chew blueberry with similar texture as a dried raisin is actually a really bad experience. They do not abuse the ice here so don't worry about getting normal ice. The boba though is delicious! It was soft and tasty. I would recommend getting it if you can spare the calories and monies. Came here on a Saturday at 3:30pm and the store was relatively empty.

It's been a while since I've updated my review, so thought I'd go ahead with it. I still like to visit this location because the service is always fast and friendly. Their drinks are delicious and I love the flexibility that I can have with them when it comes to sweetness, ice, dairy/non-fairy choice, and my mood...(aka am I in a matcha, coffee, tea mood...do I want something fruity, creamy, or fresh?) I love the seasonal drinks that come out and the Strawberry Chrysanthemum has been my favorite. You can tell the boba is made fresh regularly as well. They have great food options too - their rice balls are really delicious. Parking is still easy and there are other great places to eat at nearby while in the area!

I love Junbi! Everytime I go to LA i always stop by Junbi and get myself a cup of matcha :) So far I've tried their seasonal Lavendar Matcha, Mango Matcha, and Strawberry Matcha! Service is always great as well. Will be coming back again soon!

ngl fam, i'm not a huge fan of matcha, but since my girl is in her matcha era, i'm also in my matcha era. on top of that, this jawn is having a miffy collab and my girl is a simp for miffy. and since i'm a simp for my girl, i'm thus now a simp for miffy. the miffy merch was aiite, a little pricey but it is what it is. now for the good stuff, the drinks. my girlfriend is pretty picky with her matcha and while she did enjoy her drink, the integrity of the drink didn't last long. i found that to be the case with my boris blended drink as well. after about thirty minutes, the drink began to separate and the blended was no longer blended. kinda felt like i was drinking orange juice and ice, separately if that makes sense. taste was good though. do i regret coming? never. girlfriend got her miffy merch. would i come again? only if she wanted more.

quick and convenient to order. love that you can order online. my favorite is the strawberry matcha cons: I've had a few hit and misses on the almond jelly-/ sometimes I'll get a large and fresh piece, while other time it looks like I got old, leftover crumbs

Great company with creative leadership! Although I may not be the biggest fan of all their drinks, I will have to say that I appreciate their creativeness and boldness to do things that other companies do not try. Above all other drinks, anything with their matcha is great. The shop is always clean so I know my drink is safe to consume and tasty. Would recommend trying their matcha ice cream as they make it with ceremonial matcha.

Courteous fast and friendly service! Delightful, fresh drinks! Very cute aesthetic! Love the whole environment.

Junbi is one of the unique stores that offer focuses on matcha. They're seasonal drinks always keeping things fresh and new when visiting their stores. However, they do tend to change their menu up for their seasonal stuff. I recalled their lavender matcha was a thing, and then they got rid of it for the season ;( . I go to Junbi for a refreshing matcha experience! But for a good matcha latte fix I would like something more on the stronger side. But this is just preference! Service is always great! The staff are always very friendly and open to your questions about their drinks. The vibes are very clean and great after a big meal, especially after the nearby restaurants in the area.

Good quality matcha and lots of options to choose from. I liked the soft serve as well. Only the hojicha was not as good as some other places.

Everytime I'm in the area, I'll always stop by Junbi. My favorite thing to order is the Blueberry Matcha Latte with Oat Milk and Aloe. This has been my go to drink for the last 4/5 years. I've also tried their strawberry and mango matcha before and they're also tasty! Everything is so refreshing especially on a hot day!

One of my favorite boba spots to go to, especially since they specialize in matcha drinks and matcha is my favorite. Their drinks are refreshing and just the right amount of sweetness. I live 30 minutes away and I always make go here or when I'm in the area. Their onigiri is also very good and will tide you over if you are dying for a snack. Service is super helpful and friendly. Definitely will recommend. I recommend getting: their matcha cold brew that come with fruit puree: my current favorite is guava and blueberry and you can add milk if you would like. I often get less sweet in my drinks. I also recommend blended ceremonial matcha if you want something similar to a frappe or dessert after a good dinner.
