Reviews for TRA Tea & Juice Bar Bellevue in Bellevue, WA
This is a place that is good for grab and go bubble tea. There is no outdoor or indoor seating so not a place to catch up with... friends. There is one long bench inside , probably for people to sit while waiting for their order. There are no tablesinside.\n\nparking: There is some street parking, probably easiest to park at bellevue sqaure and walk over. I suppose you canpark at Safeway too.\n\nWhen I went on a weekend, I was the only customer. There was nobody behind the counter. You can order atthe counter or do self check out. I did self checkout via this tablet. Once the tablet printed my order I saw someone come outand made it. This feels like a place for introverts ( allows one to avoid social interactions with the workers).\n\nThe drinkaas nothing special, kind of expensive. It is almost $7 after taxes. I don\'t think I would come again. There are so many otherbubble tea options in this area.\n\nTheir menu didn\'t feel like a juice bar. this is more of a bubble tea with smoothies andlemonade drinks. It is not the healthy place with ginger shots, wheatgrass, pressed juice and acai bowls. The business name is alittle misleading. Read more
Great first impression of Bellevue, this was the first tea place I?ve seen with the most variety of containers for tea! I love... the little robot container that you can get! Read more
I order Hong Kong Milk Tea and Jasmine Tea. I can taste the Tea very well and milk tea is not too sweet, but rather has the... perfect sweetness! Boba is well-made, nice chewy texture. Totally recommend this boba place. You can grab some boba and walkaround the park right next to it, enjoying Bellevue summer weather ???? Read more

love love tra!! i?m obsessed with their osmanthus milk tea, it?s a flavor i can?t seem to find anywhere else. their fruit... flavored lemonades are also amazing. i absolutely recommend tra to anyone, but i will say their tapioca isn?t very sweet, whichdoesn?t bother me given the sweetness of the milk teas themselves. 10/10 and very friendly staff!!

Decent boba tea and friendly service in a small but cute store in downtown Bellevue. I had the Hong Kong style milk tea with... boba while my friend had the Saigon iced coffee. The drinks are good although not really outstandingly so. Good to havesomething iced on a hot summer day. Read more
Claire took our orders & prepared our drinks- she was super courteous & helpful. We ordered a brown sugar milk tea and a... honeydew milk tea with lychee jelly added in. It was my first time having brown sugar milk tea- I honestly wasn?t a fan of it.But that?s okay it?s nice to try new things.\n\nFast service & nice atmosphere. No dine in. Read more
TL;DR: refreshing and nice strong tea aromas.\n\nParking: street parking.\n\nAtmosphere: no dine-in options. Just order and... leave. You\'re not allowed to stay unless waiting for an order.\n\nMenu: on the kiosk, you can customize ice and sugarlevels.\n\nService: order and pay at the front or on the kiosk, your order number will be called.\n\nTeas here are brewed withstronger notes compared to other bubble tea joints so expect to actually taste the tea in your drink as opposed to having itdrowned out and overpowered by the fruit flavor!\n\nOstmanthus Iced Tea: what a delightful toasted floral note. Very uniquecompared to the normal green and black teas and the flavor is not an acquired taste. Try it out!\n\nLongan and Chia Iced Tea:very refreshing. The longan fruit is similar to lychee but not as tart and more sweet. The tea helps mute the sweetness of thefruit and the fruit compliments the tea. Longan is usually a rare fruit add-on in the bubble tea world so I suggest you give ita try if it\'s an option! The chia seeds add a nice texture to the tea as well. Read more
