Sunright Tea Studio - Arcadia

Pretty good experience at this Tea Shop compared to other location I went to in Rowland. They have two order yourself stations and I was able to take a look more closely this time at their selection. This is located at the front, and although there isn’t any seating, besides a bench, you could take your drink and walk inside towards the food court. I tried and enjoyed the Sunlight Fruit Tea. Got it with less sugar and less ice. We got our drinks really fast, it was clean, what else can you ask for at a Boba place?

Clean, great variety of drinks, quick and easy and loved it. I will definitely return again. I loved that they made different flavors of boba as well. I tried the regular, brown sugar, and honey boba. The Oreo brûlée milk tea is a must try too! Sooo yum!

Delicious boba drinks. I’ve visited this location several times and the employees are always efficient, but the prices have been rising similar to other tea places in LA. Two options to order: at two self-service kiosks or with a worker at the register. I recommend the Oreo brûlée boba milk which was $6.95. They also have several kids menu options which are great for a smaller 16 oz drink instead of the normal 22 oz. They’re located at the entrance of a food court in a shared plaza with a super market and other stores, so there’s enough shared lot parking.

Sunright Tea Studio has became one of my weekly boba stop! Everytime I visit 99 ranch I would go to Sunright for boba! We usually go for a fresh milk tea or Brown Sugar boba milk (with boba) and add an additional cream pudding topping. As a sweet tooth, I would always get 100% sweetness and less ice. Their cream pudding tastes just like those milk pudding you could get from Taiwanese 7-11's !! Additionally, if you are a mango fan, I recommend their frost mango with jasmine tea jelly. You can tell they really put in the effort to make their toppings because the cream pudding is filled with milky flavor and their jasmine tea jelly has the perfect jasmine tea aroma! Not long ago they had a collaboration with Maple Story which came with a super cute cup and the Kiwi Maple Story Collab was pretty good. The balance between sweet and sour was just perfect which made the drink super refreshing. I don't think they have it anymore since I visited again today and they did not have the cute cups nor the special drinks.. Give their fresh milk series a try or substitute your milk tea using fresh milk instead of house milk, it is completely a game changer! The one lacking in flavor for me from their fresh milk series would be the creme brulee boba milk. The creme brulee foam is really tasty but was, in my opinion, not strong enough for the whole cup of milk.

I have been visiting different Sunright locations over the last two weeks to purchase drinks for the LaDS Collab. 4 locations in my area have confirmed and allowed me to order drinks in one order, as long as I had my friends or family with me to show that we each were getting a drink. At this location, I ordered two drinks, one for myself and one for my mom. When picking up, I asked why there was only one merch set. The girl working said it's one per order. I told her that I've never had this issue at other locations, and she asked "don't you see the sign says 1 per person?", to which my mom responded and said yeah I'm the second person. The girl then said it has to be one per person per order, and that she can refund me for a drink and just do a repurchase. I thought she'd process the refund and do the recharge on the spot, but she only took down my phone number and said that I should get a refund receipt via text within 2 weeks. After that, she just walked back to the bar. Confused, I asked if I had to wait in line and reorder at the kiosk myself and she said yes. I am appalled at the customer service and lack of communication. There were 3 people waiting for drinks when I came in, so it is wasn't even busy. I'm not sure why 4 other sunright locations have been okay to do group orders like this over the course of almost 3 weeks, but this ONE location couldn't. Let's say every location has been doing it wrong and this is the only one doing it right, but the girl was so rude in the way she responded about the sign as if it were a comprehension issue. Excuse me for having 4 other locations in LA/SB and 1 in SD TELL ME it's ok, ALLOWED the orders, and to assume this 6th location would too. This is the worst customer service I've received in all the time of being a loyal sunright customer and this shop, manager, or worker at the very least needs to do BETTER. Now I also need to look out for a refund that may or may not even be processed on top of it all! Lastly, there is no reason why two of our drinks took 10-15 minutes to make when every store location has been able to push out the same drinks in just a few minutes, even during rush hour AND when the stores were packed. Ridiculous. When calling back to ask for a manager, guess who picked up and said there was no manager to speak to? UNACCEPTABLE.

I know the 626 is full of boba connoisseurs, but let me preface this by saying I've had lots of boba in the 626, Seattle, Portland, and Taiwan. I drink boba at least 4 times a week. Sunright is my new favorite boba chain and has set a new standard of franchise boba for me. I’ve been to multiple locations, including Chino, Rancho, Rowland Heights. They’ve all been consistent, especially their fruit teas. My go-to is the grapefruit yakult, especially after dinner when you're craving boba but need it to be caffeine-free. Their 100% is a little too sweet for me, so I go for 75% for fruity ones and 50% for the milky ones. For milky drinks, I like the four seasons latte and taro milk tea. Although milky, four seasons is light with a distinct tea taste that makes it really good with either brown sugar or honey boba. The taro milk tea is made with a swirl of taro puree that is somehow also not too heavy. Their boba is on point. The honey boba, especially, is chewy and springy with the perfect amount of sweetness and a hint of honey. The amount of boba is proportional to the amount of tea. Small tip: use their Toast Takeout app to order ahead of time to skip the lines and get points! I've found the Arcadia location with particularly long lines.

**UPDATE** I ordered the mango milk tea (4.95) and matcha brulee latte with oat milk this time. The mango milk tea was better than I expected, not too sweet but still having the tea taste. I got less ice and 75% sugar though. However, the matcha brulee just tasted like a matcha latte but with stronger matcha taste. Maybe it had to do with how I got less ice and 50% sugar. Mango milk tea will be my go-to drink now though. Ordered the green milk tea ($4.95) and oolong milk tea ($4.75). They tasted pretty good and the quantity is pretty worth it for the price. The drinks were also ready less than 10 minutes after I ordered. However, they only accept card and you have to order through their self-order kiosk. The ordering was easy so it was nice but it is inconvenient if I wanted to use cash. Their menu had a lot of options too and the cup is pretty. I will probably come back again to try something else.

This is nice boba tea shop it's clean and the staff is friendly. Their easy in-store kiosk ordering is easy and efficient with plenty of customization options with just the right amount of ice. Highly recommend the Mango Milk Tea! Located inside the President Square Food Court immediately to your right when you walk in. Plenty of free parking in lot.
