Sharetea Fairfax

==== Nov 2023 ====
And the ramen vending machine now works! The soup is super thick and full-body. The noodles are what you should expect to get from a ramen machine and they are QQ but I'm more jealous than anything because I only wish there were more of these ramen vending machines decades ago. Ramen vending machines are just genius.

[🤔 Update] As of August 2018, this is my favorite bubble tea shop. We just returned to Sharetea and just take a look at the line 20 min before opening in pic ..... Wow. And it's only Wednesday. 😱

🥁🥁 Hard to find and only at Sharetea: Taro Milk boba drink ..... made with fresh mashed taro. 🤘

With bubble tea cafes sprouting all over, this place is the only place where you can find authentic flavor of tea in your bubble tea. While most places morph your drink with crazy powders or syrups based off one or two carafes of brewed tea (black, green), this place has close to 3 to 4 carafes of brewed tea bases used for your drink. What is more is that this chain is one of the originals with tea, ingredients, recipes from TW, birthplace of bubble tea. Plus boba are just right and flavorful. Lastly, it's close compared to TenRen Tea in Maryland where the tea in bubble tea is the most crisp.

I ordered the taro milk tea and loved it. I highly recommend the friendly staff .I especially enjoy the many sugar levels and the ability to minimize ice so that my drink is not too cold.

I go here all the time , the tea is great and really pretty , most customer service is good but there is one employee who is fairly new like in the last like 6 months or his hours where changed not sure but it’s really hard to understand him because he has a really strong accent maybe change his position so he’s not having to communicate with customers . I’ve been going for years and best boba I have ever had and best prices

Yummy tea, fast service, friendly and clean. Very affordable too! There was more choices than the two pictures I took. There was another menu but didn't get a chance to snap that one.

Edit: Went back and got a fruit tea with mini boba, it was okay but the boba was a bit too much lol! I was literally just drinking boba. My husband got a mango passionfruit tea and also complained that it was super sweet. Im assuming all their drinks are a bit on the sweeter side here so I'll be getting less sweetness next time!

The young man who made my boba took extra time and care to make my drink extra special. I would 6 stars if I could.

Very good strawberry ice blended with lychee jelly and ice cream.

My go to boba place
They have the best prices for the size. The picture is cocoa creama with herb jelly I think, i bought it a while back. The pearls are good and chewy.

This place offers good drinks. Make sure you ask them about natural options. Tea and kiwi drinks are what we tried. No jelly stuff in deinks at all.....

fast service, nice customer service, and the tea is really good! i love it! the boba itself is sweet and chewy. I would recommend this place.

Aww yeah, awesome boba place I found while visiting some family. Reasonably priced for an expensive area and tastes great!

I experienced wonderful service by the lady in the front. Gotta try the QQ happy in a green milk tea. It is like magic in your mouth!

So happy they do curbside pickup!

Order online beforehand and the drink is ready for pick up and you don't even need to be within 6 feet of the staff

Quick service
Great welcoming staff
Awesome flavored green teas

Kungfu Tea will do in a pinch, but Sharetea is richer and more flavorful. Just give it a good shake before you plunge that straw.

So good! Very cute store and professional staff 👍🏼 The sticky note wall was super cute, I loved it, and there’s tons of options on the menu! All 5 of the teas I ordered came out within 5 mins and I loved them! Definitely coming back as soon as I can.

Delicious boba teas and a great selection of flavors. Service was quick and staff were friendly. Everyone was wearing masks too. What a great spot, so glad to see it busy everytime I go, but it's never a long wait, and the drinks are always good! Great spot in Fairfax!

Best boba place in Fairfax. It's their first store in NoVA. Totally hooked on their Creama tea. Their ice blended (Husky and Strawberry), Thai tea, matcha milk tea, coffee oolong milk tea and fruit tea are all good. Prices are lower than other bubble tea stores. All large size. Most of drinks come with boba or lychee topping. Some even include ice cream! My kids LOVE their QQ family, their go-to order, which comes with 6 toppings for the same price. Topping lovers should give it a try. I was told that their tea is freshly made with real tea, not the powder stuff. No wonder the drinks taste like real tea drinks and stronger than others.

It's an authentic Taiwanese boba store. They have many stores in Taiwan, US west coast, Texas and Canada.

The place is always crowded durning weekends. Good deco in the store.

It takes them longer to make tea than other bubble tea locations. However I have found them to be polite and patient even when the line is going out the door. They did run out of boba once but offered other toppings instead. I've never been to a bubble tea place that has run out but maybe they had a busier day than expected? I like the kpop music they play and the sticky note wall but wish they kept more sticky notes out to write on. I have never had a bad bubble tea here they are consistently good. I recommend the Happy Family one, its unique!

Your price is unbeatable. I purchased Taro Pearl Milk Tea with boba and lychee for $6.04 and it is large. Other bubble tea house will charge me for that to almost closed to $10. It tasted really good.

I LOVE THIS PLACE! It's so cute, the staff is friendly, they have so many options and all are delicious, they play kpop music (which I adore), and they have a wall where people draw or write notes or anything really and put them all over the wall. It's a cute and unique idea and I've left several post it notes with my name or praises of the establishment on the wall. 10/10 would recommend. When I'm not at college, I drive the 30 minutes from my house at least twice a week to come here.
