Crema's Take

Tucked inside Tacoma Mall, this Taiwanese bubble tea institution brings nearly three decades of expertise to a surprisingly unassuming storefront that punches well above its weight. Staff genuinely care about getting your order right, offering thoughtful suggestions as they craft fresh teas with precision—whether you're ordering a classic milk tea or exploring their signature creative drinks with customizable sweetness and ice levels. Long-time boba enthusiasts consistently rank it among the best they've found across the country, making it worth the small effort to locate the entrance near Sushi Express or Nordstrom.

Service is fine, drinks are whatever. There’s better boba shops in the mall and around the area for a better price.

Very positive experience here at Sharetea in Tacoma mall. The staff was extremely friendly who offered excellent suggestions. The teas were made very fresh and were so refreshing.

I love Boba Tea, so I was excited to try Sharetea, which started in Taiwan in 1992. The storefront in the Tacoma Mall is pretty nondescript, but the drinks are excellent! I ordered a Classic Pearl Milk Tea ($4.75). It was indeed, Bubblelicious!

We have been enjoying bubble teas for well over 20 years in cities across the US and this is one of the best places we have found. With a large selection of great drinks from original milk tea to ice cream blended fruity beverages with all kinds of fun toppings, you are guaranteed to find something you like. This may seem obvious and not worth mentioning, but the milk teas are made with actual brewed tea and not a powder. Sadly, this is not the most common practice and many places use powder mixes for everything, even the basic black tea, making for a far inferior product. Another great feature of this place is the ability to adjust to sweetness level from 0-100. This is not possible at the places using a pre-sweetened powder mix. The one downside is that this place can be busy and there may be a long line. However, there is no need to wait in line, since you can use the Clover app to place your order and then just pick it up when it’s done. As you are waiting for your drink, there are plenty of chairs and tables close by outside Nordstrom, and right next to Sharetea is a cell phone charging area with lounge chairs. As great as the bubble tea is here, the best part is the friendly and competent service. The young people behind the counter always greet you with a smile and even remember your favorite drinks!

I went there at grand opening day. lots of people but worth to wait. its in the mall n recommend entering from sushi express or Nordstrom. You choose basic drink n alternatives ice n sweetness amount. I love it. u must have experience that u just only taste sugar/syrup.the amount of tea is enough to drink. I love 50% sweetness or zero. lots of black pearls make u bubblicious. satisfaction! the workers r helpful n friendly. there r no tables n seats in the store but right in front of store there ia sofa.
