Twinkle Boba & Tea Lounge 7878 Clairemont Mesa Boulevard, San Diego, CA 92111

"I'm so sad that this place doesn't get more attention. It is always empty despite its rave reviews, excellent drinks, and friendly staff. It's ever so slightly off the main drag of Convoy, but worth the drive and infinitely easier to park. The brown sugar brûlée latte is what drew me here in the first place and what keeps me coming back. Maybe someday l'll break free from its hold on me and actually order something different... but until then I'll enjoy its caramelized goodness (and stress free parking)!"

"Great Boba spot that has been only open for about four months. I thought the flavor was really good and their Boba and pudding were also really good. The inside is very clean and aesthetically pleasing. They also have a little bit of seating outside. Solid place."

"Today I tried Twinkle Boba & Tea Lounge for the first time and I'm so glad I stopped by. If you're looking for a quick review all you need to know is that the Tea is excellent (and fresh brewed!), the boba was perfect and I can't wait to stop by again soon. Definitely give it a try. If you want more detail, here you go. I was greeted by the owner, Derick. He greeted me warmly and answered all of my (many) questions. I ordered the "Half&Half" milk tea which has boba and pudding. The tea was fresh brewed and delicious. Not too sweet (and adjustable if you'd like more sweetness, but the base level was great). The boba was made fresh that morning, which he said they do everyday. Some shops obviously don't make it fresh, and that's the worst! the pudding had a great flavor and great texture too. I love when it has some firmness, it's more satisfying that way. So many tea shops are out of pudding when I visit, it drives me crazy, so I was super happy to find that they had some freshly made and that it was so tasty. I ended up chatting with Derick while enjoying my tea and he was a really nice guy. Our conversation was great, a perfect addition to the tea and I'm so glad he took the time to speak with me. I'll definitely be back again soon, and I'm so glad to have them here in San Diego. My kids are going to love it, and my wife is excited to try the cheese foam. I'll report back once we've tried more stuff. If you're in the area it's worth a visit for sure."

"Today was our first time here. Their drinks were delicious and the staff was helpful. We went on a Sunday around noon so there was plenty of parking. I could easily see parking filling up in the evening."

"new boba place! great ambience and creative drinks. easy parking, is not in one of those busy Convoy plazas. I had the taro cloud which has taro chunks in it! some recommendations : the drinks didn’t have descriptions on what’s in them on menu, which can be confusing for nontraditional drink names. would recommend including them on menu. Would also recommend including if drink has caffeine or not."
