Destiny Coffee and Tea

Good tea. I was able to get hot milk tea not too sweet. The place is nicely decorated, very clean, with comfortable seating. The staff is very friendly. I’ll go back to relax and enjoy a hot drink.

Great tea shop! Stopped in for lunch today, this place is so calm beautiful music playing. Ordered the hot pastrami sandwich and it’s awesome. Highly recommended respite on the edge of the financial district.

Every afternoon, I go to Destiny Coffee and Tea to get the best hot jasmine milk tea. Addiction is an understatement. It’s the highlight of my work day break!
This small, cute little shop never disappoints. The hot tea is always consistent, just the right amount of hot and sweet and if you’re in FiDi, this is definitely a place I highly recommend. They have food and bobba teas also which I have yet to try.

This is a small mom and pop coffee/​tea house and café. Simone and I were just done shopping like crazy in ChinaTown looking for a performance martial arts outfit. We were exhausted. We wanted Boba or Milk Tea and we just wanted something to refresh ourselves.
As I tried doing a search on my Unilocal app and walking to find our car, we were lucky enough that this was just around the corner from the main strip of ChinaTown. We walked right in and there was a cute couple welcoming us in.
The environment was clean and well maintained. They even gave me samples of two different teas that I couldnt decide on. I was debating Jasmine Tea and Thai Tea. I was also indecisive with the lychee and grass jelly. They also made me sample.
I decided the lychee and Thai Milk Tea. It was super delicous. I loved it. As we we got our drinks and straws ready to head out and leave, they offered us HOLIDAY Lace cookies. OMG… it was the bomb delicous.
They look like Oatmeal lace cookies… coated half with dark chocolate. Super delicous.
They told us who made them, but my ears were shut to hear it because… I was so mesmerized at tasting the cookies. So good!
The couple here were super friendly and very sweet lovely people. You should visit them some time. They really are good people.

Been meaning to check this place out. Came from a doctor’s appointment and in the area.
Nice clean environment. Space is tight but tidy. A bit hard to find since it doesn’t really stand out. Near fidi and from the look of it usually not crowded so good for grabbing a quick boba or coffee.
Got hot black milk tea less sweet and less boba. Pretty good I would say slightly above average.
Nice place to grab a warm drink and take a break from the cold outside.

The 4 stars are due to the really nice service and pleasant ambiance. It was nice to sit, drink our tea, and make use of the wi-​fi. We had a mango strawberry slush with milk that was pretty good too. The only bummer is the boba itself. Some were still frozen in the middle and they didn’t have any flavor.

My favorite is Jasmine milk tea with red bean topings! So good! But of course you can tell the people there to have less sugar. I like it better that way! Oh they started selling home made yogurt now. That is really good too! Don’t forget to add honey in it. The people there are super friendly. I enjoy spending my time there.

I got a regular oolong bubble tea here (with tapioca). The tea was way too sweet but still tasted okay… The tapioca was terrible though… tasteless and overcooked :(
The café has free wifi and plenty of free tables when I went there in the middl of a weekday to get some work done. Wifi isn’t super reliable.

*takes sip of oolong milk tea* *confused* how can tapioca taste like nothing, but STILL leave a bad aftertaste?! Also, where is the oolong tea part of my milk?!

Jasmine Milk Tea (with less sugar)
–The jasmine flavor was moderately strong. The tea was pretty bold. I did like this! And I would definitely come back for this drink.
I liked the staff and it was a pleasant experience hanging out here!

Tried the Strawberry Slush and the Jasmine Milk Tea with less sugar. For the slush, the ice wasn’t chunky and it was made of real strawberries. I would recommend it for someone who likes fruity drinks, it’s not as sweet as slushes from other places maybe but I think that’s because it isn’t as artificial and I have no problem with that. I liked that I could really taste the fruit in it. I only tried a couple sips of the Jasmine Milk Tea, but it tasted pretty good. There is definitely a tea emphasis over the jasmine flavor so something to keep in mind if you are a jasmine tea aficionado.

Delicious hot pastrami sandwich and if you say everything, you get EVERYTHING, including jalapenos and advocado, so be careful how you order.
Thai milk tea was delicious, and I’m excited to go back and try the other offerings.

This was my first boba discovery since starting to work in FiDi. It has free wi-​fi, sandwiches and boba. Their boba selection is limited and they can make your tea with less sugar. I think I’ve tried most of the flavors, but the best so far is the lychee tea.
Seating is limited, but there is free wifi and it is cash only.

Ladies leave yo tea at home
The café’s full of bobas & they cups is full grown
And all you fellas leave coffee witcho friends
Cause it’s like 2:30 & the café is lunchinlunchin!
Though he say he got milk tea
Yeah it’s true my iced coffee
But the café ain’t gonn stop
So lets drink it hot hot!

Meh! It’s aight! I got the osmanthus and oolong milk tea and it tasted water down. For $ 3.75 I got a small size, ehhhh not worth it! On top of it, the boba is hard and tasteless.
Nahhh.

You know, I’m surprised why this place doesn’t get more foot traffic during the day. Maybe it’s because it’s a little farther away from all the companies in FiDi or something, but to me this place is worth the longer walk.
For one thing, their drinks are decently priced. I have ordered their regular sized jasmine milk tea twice now, at $ 3.25. I don’t know if you can beat that price at any other decent milk tea shop anywhere else in downtown. Looking at their menu I have in front of me, they have a couple of other special drinks that look interesting, like French Vanilla MT for $ 3.75. It’s still a far cry from $ 4 – 5 from the other milk tea places nearby.
Also, they taste just as decent as the tea at Cool Tea Bar and Plentea nearby also! No chalky, powdery taste to it. Awesome. I’ll most likely come back to try their French Vanilla MT one of these days.
Maybe it was my destiny to find this place. I’m glad I did.

Perfectly good milk tea.
My boyfriend and I tried the jasmine milk tea and oolong milk tea, both regular size, and both with boba. You could taste the tea flavor in both, but it wasn’t overwhelming or in-​your-​face if you’re looking for a super strong tea flavor. We didn’t adjust our sweetness, but the standard sweetness level was perfect for our tastes: not insanely sweet.
The boba was fine, but a little undercooked than ideal. We had to chew on the boba more than usual.
The price was fine: $ 7.00 for both of our regular sized milk teas and boba. They’re much more reasonable compared to the crazy prices of Plentea for premade milk tea in a glass bottle.
The shop is small but nice: wooden floors and tables, nice chairs, and large front windows. This shop also offers a variety of other items like smoothies, sandwiches, and chips.
The quality and price here aren’t spectacular, but I would go back if I were in the area craving milk tea.

I’ve tried their hot oolong milk tea with boba and their strawberry milk tea with pudding! Both drinks taste yummy!
There are strawberry pieces in their strawberry milk tea!
I like a little more tea flavor in my milk tea and their sweetness level was perfect!
Their boba was a little harder than I like but it was perfect with the hot milk tea I ordered.
Their pudding taste good too.
Their milk tea also tastes creamy and fluffy!
I will definitely go again to try other flavors!
Remember to get their stamp card!!!

One of the designers was having a bad day so I decided to treat her to a milk tea since she likes that sort of drink.
Maybe it was my destiny to be here because I thought the décor here was nice and we were able to have a nice conversation outside of the office.
The drinks here are more expensive than those in Chinatown, about the same price as Plentea.
I’m not a fan of their coffee milk tea. Even though they use real fresh espresso, it tastes rather odd with the milk.
The Thai tea was slightly better, since that’s what I usually order.
Also, on several occasions they will play live music from the Chinese harp.
Service is always friendly and they have a drink rewards program.
Nice incentive to return.

Popped in here a couple of days ago on a visit to San Francisco.
I ordered a Honey Milk Tea with the mango pudding and lychee boba… yum! I like the little plate by the register showing you the different types/​flavors you can get.
My drink was tasty and I had to stop myself from sucking it down in two minutes. All of the boba helped… I was chewing so much I forgot I was hungry for a little while!
The guys working were super nice. This is definitely a great place to stop in for a refreshing drink if you find yourself in Chinatown.
