Yi Fang Taiwan Fruit Tea, Colma

Yifang is a great place to go if you're lactose intolerant, since they're known for their fruit teas! They don't have indoor seating at this location, so it's mostly for takeout, and there's a tablet for you to order. The drink I got, the yakult passion fruit green tea, ended up being just a bit too sour for me, and even at 50% sweetness, it feels very sweet.

I was a bit surprised that the drink didn't look like what I expected from the menu. It turned out to be chunks of watermelon with coconut milk, which wasn't quite what I had in mind. I thought it would be more like a slush or watermelon juice. However, I still gave it a try and decided to keep it. The staff were really friendly, even though they were busy, which I appreciated! Overall, I'd give this drink about a 1/5, especially for the $9 price tag.

Removing one star 12/9/23 8:00 PM This evening, I placed an online order. When my order was ready, a smug employee slid four drinks towards me, slammed the straws on top and said there you go I politely asked if there was an easier way to carry the four drinks, since they normally bag them. He flipped over two drinks, stacked them and said that 's how , sarcastically. Drinks were still good. Some employees need a refresher in customer service. Ambiance was the same as usual and they weren 't even busy. View menu

The place is very small and strictly takeout. There was a long line on a hot Sunday. So we decided to try ordering through their app but the menu was difficult to use to when customizing our drinks. We finally stood in line to use the in-store ordering kiosk. Our first visit here and the wait time to get our drinks exceeded 30 minutes. People were standing outside patiently waiting but were not happy campers. The drinks I ordered had orange and apple slices, a nice twist to a tea drink. Their huge variety of quality drinks is undermined by the long wait time.

My go to is the fruit tea since I'm lactose intolerant.. the fruit tea always hits the spot whenever I'm craving for something refreshing and somewhat healthy lol. It contains bits of pineapple bits, passion fruit seeds, apples slices and orange slices. Not sure what tea they use, but it's a great combo. Hits the spot every time ; I don't usually add any toppings since there's already a bunch of fruits in there. At the end I like to open up the seal and eat the fruits, cuz why not? Overall, one of my go to spots for boba, great location for when I'm running errands!

Disclaimer: I don't usually drink Asian boba teas so I'm probably not the best critic for this type of beverage. I was shopping at the Carter's store on a late Tuesday morning and noticed this newish Yi Feng Tea shop. Not having tried their teas before, I thought it was a good treat for a warm day. No line at all. Service was friendly enough. I ordered the grass jelly almond latte on the kiosk. It was ready within minutes. I thought it was refreshing and enjoyed the beverage. Would reorder this again. I'm not a huge fan of the fruit tea selection but would be willing to try another grass jelly or red bean drink. Wouldn't necessarily get it if there was a long line, but that's just me. View menu

This is the place to come to if you're a fan of fruit teas as they have so many options for you to choose from. For me, I'm more of a classic milk tea type of girlie so my options are a bit more limited but I do tend to get their black tea latte, with boba, and customized with my preferred levels of ice and sweetness. This is a very cramped retail space with no seating. When you come in, you order at one of the two kiosks and then wait for your number to be called. It's easier to wait outside as otherwise you're in the way of other people looking to put their order in. What struck me when I first came in was how overly sweet the entire place smelled, which wasn't the most pleasant thing tbh.

My husband and I always love visiting any Yi Fang locations whenever we have milk tea cravings. While driving on our way back from our hiking activities in the Pacifica area, our cravings brought us to this Colma location. What attracts us to Yi Fang is the variety of drinks to order for the lactose intolerance. I usually order a strawberry milk tea with oat milk substitution and the flavor is always so vibrant along with small strawberry chunks. I usually get 25-30% sweetness and it was just the perfect amount for me. This is truly a grab and go location (which is fine) but something to take note of when visiting as some Yi Fang locations have a sit down area. There are two kiosks to order...

Yi Fang in Colma not only excels in providing efficient service and delightful beverages but also offers a unique ambiance tailored for the grab-and-go experience. During my visit, I chose the large red bean purple rice milk tea, and despite a line of customers at the door, the ordering process was remarkably swift. The absence of seating space indicated a clear focus on quick service, encouraging patrons to grab their favorite drinks and continue with their day. Multiple staff members worked seamlessly behind the counter, creating an atmosphere of organized hustle. The lack of seating, while limiting for those seeking a cozy spot, enhances the overall efficiency and caters to the establishm... View menu
