Cha For Tea - Long Beach
5720 E 7th St, Long Beach, CA
Crema's Take
“Cha For Tea is a vibrant student hangout right next to Cal State Long Beach that's built a loyal following for customizable milk teas and creative specialty drinks where you can really make it your own. They've earned genuine affection for their solid food offerings and thoughtful touches like multiple milk options, though recent visitors note the execution can be inconsistent—sometimes missing custom orders or presentation fumbles that feel careless for the price point. If you're in the area craving a matcha or boba with flexibility in how you build your drink, it's still worth the stop, especially if you catch them on an attentive day.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. Quick-grab spot. Light food on the menu.

I love that they have various milk options. I would however say that the default on the peach green tea milk tea was five pumps of sweetener, which was way too much for me personally. Points off for the straw being a paper straw and the lid being like a dixie cup sort of lid and…
