Nest Tea House
556 Las Tunas Dr #108, Temple City, CA
Crema's Take
“Tucked away in Temple City, Nest Tea House is a quiet refuge where the Hokkaido milk tea series genuinely lives up to the hype—creamy, balanced, and worth ordering with a sea salt topping for that extra dimension. The friendly staff make drink decisions easy with genuine recommendations, and their affordable creative beverages (from matcha to cold brew) are so good people grab extras to enjoy the next day. It's the kind of unpretentious spot that rewards you for seeking it out.”

Love their drinks as I would have one and grab one more for the next day. Their drinks are good! I had: 1. Hokkaido milkstache green tea w grass jelly 2. Rose green milk tea w grass jelly 3. Sea salt milkstache green tea w boba
This is my favorite place for boba. Their Hokkaido series drinks just hit the right spot every time I come here. I would recommend adding sea salt as a topping for an extra kick. The staff is really friendly and usually makes your drinks fast. The place has a nice cozy vibe, so people often come here to do homework and projects. Therefore, the tables get filled up on weekends pretty fast.
The location is so tucked away, this place can be largely forgettable, to be honest. BUT that makes it a nice quiet place to hang out and just talk. Drinks aren't too expensive.
Cashiers are friendly. I read good reviews about Hokkaido milk tea and Hokkaido green/ black tea (milkstache). I often have trouble making decision, so I asked the cashier for recommendation. He told me that the green tea is lighter, and I should go for the milk tea if I like something that is stronger. I took his recommendation and ordered a Hokkaido milk tea with grass jelly. I believed the proportion of the milk is more than the tea. It tasted more like milk than tea. However, it is not too bad overall. It would be better if the tea base is a bit stronger.
Friendly staff and manager! They have a wide selection of drinks on the front and back of the menus they have at the counter. I ended up getting an iced coffee to save for the next morning. They got free WiFi, a lot of seating, and I found parking easily on a Sat evening.
