The Whale Tea — Restaurant in Beverly

The best boba in the North Shore —period. We found this place almost a year ago after moving here from SoCal where the boba competition was FIERCE and this place rivals even my favorite spots from there. The creme brulee series is my personal favorite from here.

They use real ingredients to flavor their drinks. Most places just use powders to flavor their teas and it tastes very artificial. Here, if you get a taro tea for example, they'll use actual taro that you'll be able to get smooth chunks of as you drink your tea.

They strike the perfect balance with flavor and sweetness. Rest assured, you won't just be drinking a cup of milk, sugar, powder, and sugar when you order here.

They also offered crème brûlée versions of their milk teas/ fresh milks. While some stores may have a wider variety of fruit teas and fruit milks, i still do recommend trying here. For what they do currently offer, it’s...

When one utters the words perfection I think of three things, Adam Sandler, Billy Joel and of course The Whale Tea. In my life I have wandered tirelessly for an authentic Boba experience I no longer have to look. Their excellent prices and welcoming atmosphere set this shop apart from all modern tea locations in the area, I applaud it. Very clean, sleek, and most importantly delicious. 10/10 would...
