Crema's Take
“Umbrella Tea House makes their boba pearls fresh twice daily, and you can taste the difference in every sip—drinks arrive perfectly balanced and never cloyingly sweet, which puts them leagues ahead of typical bubble tea spots. The space hits that rare sweet spot of being both Instagram-worthy and genuinely comfortable for camping out with a laptop or friends, and they've recently expanded beyond tea into Korean corn dogs, bagels, and Vietnamese coffee, making it easy to spend an entire afternoon here.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Light food on the menu. Parking available.
