NamasTEA — Restaurant in Friendswood

I try to visit at least once a week if not more(often more since it's hard to stay away) and has been my favorite place to get drinks since they opened!

The way they remodeled the building is beyond gorgeous and offers a very comfortable, welcome space. The drinks are the best I've had-and I mean this in the most sincere way as someone who goes out of their way to try new places when I see them. I had never had a Lavender Milk Tea before coming here but it is my number 1 go-to drink for hard or long days and genuinely almost brought tears to my eyes the first time I tried it. The bakery treats are some of the best I've found as I believe most if not all of them come from Jenny's Bakery across the lot, and the ice creams I have yet to try but am looking forward to! They also have a wide selection of bagged teas in the shelves for folks to purchase and make at home, though I can never choose just one, and the freezer always has the Most fun types of snacks inside (mochi, brown sugar ice boba ice cream and little animal scoops!). The folks working there include the owner herself-who puts a lot of time and energy into supporting our local community and especially our wonderful artists- as well as a fantastic staff team, all of which are a sincere delight to see and talk with when I come in. Tip them well, they deserve it! Never felt more welcome and at home and cannot...

I absolutely love this place, they have coffee, tea, macarons, cake pops, brownies, mini cakes, ice cream, and more. I used to go to this place when I went to the driving school across the shop. It was the best sweet treat that I could have when I finished school hours. I loved their brown sugar milk tea with popping strawberry Boba, with a side of cotton candy, and Oreo flavored macarons. They inspired me to make macarons and even to start up my own business since I also make cake pops. It is the best price that a sweet treat can have, and they do not use tax, or ask for tip. It is best to tip your workers because it is incredibly amazing. I try going there more often but it is such a good price, and the treats are just the best. I love that they are a small business and I would like to even invite them to my graduation party. It was so good that I wanted to encourage people to go to this place, as the environment is so calming. If it were closer to my house I would go there every day. The small shop is soothing, and will forever hold something special...

What I know about this place is that it is more than a place to get a tea. I’m not from the area, I’ve been on the struggle bus today. I decided that I would google map a location near me for Boba because I just needed some happy for my heart. Google said they closed at 6, and at 5:55 I was so stressed that I wasnt going to make it. I got stuck at a light and when I pulled in I held my breath as I went in, assuming the people there would tell me they were closing and to go. I cannot express how opposite it was. The kindness, the absolute love and kindness that these strangers showed me was the hug my heart actually needed. They were patient and helpful and helped my hurting heart. This isn’t just a tea place, this place - the people who were there today - they are special. You never know what people are hurting through and what an amazing example of kindness healing. Thank you NamasTea. I would recommend you a million times over.

The drink was pretty darn...
