3CAT Handcrafted Beverage
4917 Convoy St, San Diego, CA
Crema's Take
“This San Diego favorite crafts genuinely creative drinks that stand out in the boba scene—think fragrant mochi mango smoothies and vibrant fruit teas made with fresh ingredients that customers genuinely rave about. While their specialty beverages and matcha offerings are consistently praised for quality and unique flavor combinations, the ordering system struggles to keep pace during busy times, so expect either a quick grab during quiet hours or patience if you hit a weekend rush.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. Quick-grab spot. Family friendly.

Obviously I went here on a bad night, it was packed line out the door but that’s pretty normal for anywhere in convoy anyways with absolutely no parking. They have those kiosks where you take your own order, which I don’t care about but the software they used make it super janky…
