I like mine to be at about half the sweetness of the usual, but you can also get it at full sweetness, 3/4 sweetness and 1/4 sweetness.īecause I love boba (tapioca pearls), I had never bothered to try popping boba, which was a hot trend several years ago. Both were excellent, not least of all because you can choose the level of sweetness you prefer. I tried the rose milk tea with boba and the plain milk tea with popping strawberry boba. However, Honeycreek appeals to a broader range of customers who want to get food or dessert with their tea. I usually grab my tea at those places, and leave immediately. It would probably be best appreciated by groups of friends who can split and share items or young well-paid professionals looking for a cool place to hang out after dark.Īlthough it was popular in the 1980s in Taiwan where it originated, bubble tea only became extremely popular in Mountain View at the tail end of the 1990s and it feels like every year since then brings a new and crowded bubble tea place within twenty minutes of my house. The food is reasonably good, if sometimes presented in excessively large portions and at high prices due to its location on Castro Street. Honeycreek is a relatively new and decadent Chinese tearoom and lounge located at 124 Castro Street that serves Taiwanese bubble tea, hot tea, desserts, snack food and restaurant fare.
