Q-Cup

I ordered a Taro Milk Tea and it tasted like Taro Water Tea. The location is terrible, parking is ridiculous and difficult to find.
A lot of high school students come here after 3PM because Andrew Hill High School is right around the corner.
Not recommended, I would rather spend my money on quality drinks at Fantasia.

Q-​Cup just burned down.
Thank you for the memories, awesome drinks, big ass crepes, fights in the parking lot, and for being here in high school.

I only come here when I’m in the area and driving to Milpitas or Mountain View for a really good drink is not possible.
The only thing I’ve ever ordered from here is green milk tea — which is pretty average. It’s no Fantasia, Ten Ren, or Tea Era by any means but it does the job. I hate hate HATE the pearls here though I’ve worked at 2 different boba joints back in high school and I can tell you, they’re not preparing their pearls correctly here. The pearls here are mushy and bland, whereas it should taste chewy, firm, and sweetened (by letting it sit in brown sugar).
This place is not good for sitting around and enjoying your drink there. The couches are filthy! I don’t think even the workers there would dare sit on the couches. And yea, I agree with the other reviewers. This area is sketchy. Always people loitering around and homeless men drinking Heinekens they bought from the 7-​Eleven.

UHM. I TAKE THAT BACK ABOUT THE COUCHES NOW… I just went back there and all the couches are extremely stained and dirty. I would definitely not sit on them to play games anymore. GROSS!

I love love love the mango scoop. The other dessert here isn’t too bad either. Had the crêpe and fried ice cream as well.
As for the jasmine milk tea here, its horrible. Still tastes like powder.

I usually go here for the crepes! but the drinks here are pretty decent!
I just wish this location was located at a better spot.
What I normally order:
vietnamese egg rolls
strawberry neutella crepes
fish balls
jasmine milk tea with pearls

Hmmm… so many bad reviews for this place. For some reason they were actually nice to me. I thought the service was okay. The food was decent and they were quick with m drinks.

TERRIBLE. I had the strawberry icy, which just tasted like strawberry powder and frozen water.
I had two scoops of their «gelato» — mango and raspberry sorbet, and they both tasted like artificial flavors.
They also sell packages of ramen noodles here, which I find terribly distasteful. Ugh.
The girl behind the counter played on her phone the whole time we were there and while she rang us up.
They played annoying videos while we were there the whole time.
I do not plan on coming back.

Pretty sketch area, but disregard those loiterers wandering in front of your car and Cadillac caddies rolling about.
I stopped in real quick with Stine H. I got the Green Tea Lychee Milk Tea with Boba, which was pretty good. Most places usually don’t make a Lychee Milk Tea besides TiiCafe– only Slushes and Icys, so this was a treat.
The cashier was pretty nice, but the guy who stepped in to give us a change seemed a bit new so it took a bit for him to realize we were supposed to get $ 3 back in change not $ 33– which would’ve been nice. Haha! Nonetheless, Stine and I left happy.
Only con, while the girl cashier took my order and the guy decided to make my drink they put way too much ice about 75% was ice and 5% boba … leaving the rest with the actual drink. Would’ve liked more … but that’s how I feel about most milk teas I like):

picked myself and a friend up a drink before heading over to her house. she warned me that it was nasty, but from my last memory they were ok. so, im gonna go with what i believe =P plus, i was in dire need of a pearl drink! this place had definitely gone downhill since ive last been!
UGH, i ordered the strawberry icy and it was HORRIBLE. pearls werent even sweet! it chewed as if it was sitting in the water from days before! mushy mushhhh! yuck! drink was just all bad.
interesting that they rearranged their place around to restaurant style and now serve hu tieu nam vang. heard it was ok. will def check that out next time.

I’m not too sure about the food here, I never order anything to eat… so I wouldn’t know anything about the hair ordeal. Sure the neighborhood is slightly sketchy, but hey I’m from E$$J, ain’t no thang.
Of all the milk tea boba places in proximity, I have to give qcup the crown for best milk tea in my neighborhood. I absolutely HATE tapioca express. Their tea is never consistent, and mostly bland. Qcup has been good to me, I like the lychee jasmine milk tea and almond black milk tea. Both have the perfect amount of sweetness, sans the overly bitter tea like Sweet Tea’s. Tastes the way milk tea should.
Please continue to quench my milk tea thirst. Thank you.

I don’t know why I even went here today, I am not in high school anymore and I don’t think I have ever gotten anything here that I really liked.
We stopped by because we were craving something sweet and I ended up getting fried bananas with ice cream. It was just ok. I usually love fried bananas, especially with ice cream. the batter they used was pretty weird. Maybe I was not use to it, because it is not as crunchy as I am use to or expected.

AVOID please! I just ordered two Jasmine Milk Teas with big pearls and an Avocado drink yesterday and their quality of drinks have extremely deteriorated! Oh dear me… We all threw our drinks away after about 3 sips. The Jasmin Milk Tea was so watered down it only tasted like water. Their pearls are really mushy. The avocado drink was bitter. Everything was horrible. It was a mistake to come in here just because we were lazy to drive down to Tapioca Express. Never again.

So many things wrong with this place! Where do I begin?
1. Hair in their food! GROSS!
2. Sketchy neighborhood
3. Cash Only
4. Snobby workers
5. Place could use a mop in certain areas
Enough ranting., just don’t come here!

Ugh. i should’ve checked in with Unilocal before coming to this, but i didn’t have internet and don’t have a smartphone either.
I should’ve ran out once i went in but it was so DARN HOT that i needed AC… fast! I scoped out all the boba places in this plaza and this one was the emptiest. The others were packed. I should’ve heeded to my parent’s suggestions. Crowded = Good. Empty = Bad. Somehow I ended up here. I think the heat got to me and I wasn’t thinking straight.
The passion fruit icy drink i ordered was BAD — sweet and very artificial tasting. mango pudding did not taste anything remotely close to the fruit. I drank ¹⁄₃ of it and had to throw it out. I was starting to feel sick in the stomach from it.

The only reason why I go to this place is for the YAM FRIES.
The place is typically decorated and nothing to fancy over. Depending on the day that I come do I get a nice employee (rare). The most disgusting thing about this place are the teeny boppers that hangs around in front of the shop smoking their lives away and are not hesitant to spit all over the place. EWWWWW!!! smoking kills children!

I really dislike this place, whether my friends work there or not. This location used to shine bright when I was but a wee teenager in high school.
However, since then, I’ve actually noticed a lot of things bothering me about this location. The unruly kids who stop by here often tend to bother you a lot, and management makes it seem as if it’s perfectly okay.
The chicken tastes… as if it’s mixed with every other snack on the menu. I know it’s probably cooked in the same oil, but the taste of calamari lingers in my chicken, and that really bothers me.
The drinks could honestly be better, the pearls always taste like rocks, and I feel sorry that there’s no more than 1 girl working when it does get a bit busy. (3PMish)
…I can’t stand the kids smoking outside of Q-​Cup… it bothers me because they look 10 years old.

This review is based solely on the crêpe.
Holy cow, that crêpe was huge! It’s $ 4-​$ 5 or so for their different crepes. My friend got the nutella crêpe and I got the banana. I thought it would be thin or something like all the other crepes that we’ve seen, and while my friend and I sat at a table talking, we were wondering why they were taking so long to finish it…
The employee called us over and we were really surprised. The crêpe fills (and is served in) one of those flat square take-​out boxes! You’ve just gotta see it… and eat it too. The body is mainly a ton of plain (not quite vanilla-​y) ice cream, and it’s layered with nutella and (for mine) banana on top. I had whipped cream and chocolate syrup on mine too. We soon realized that we’d really need a fork and knife to dig in.
I will say that the crust was kinda too thick for a crêpe and I wound up cutting into the foam below the crêpe several times. That’s a minus for me. But the sheer size and deliciousness of the rest of it more than makes up for that shortcoming. It’s an awesome helping for dessert or any time.
The place was dead empty at 3pm on Friday, so try to pick dead hours if you don’t want a tremendous wait. Or maybe you can try one of those games on the touch screen thing, or even ask them to change the tv channel to something you like. Yes, it works, it’s connected to the speakers that they play music on, and it runs Dish Network with a wide variety of cable channels.

This place isn’t like what most of the reviews I’ve read — maybe because it was the afternoon…
The milk tea here was okay — pearls are chewy. Milk tea with pearls was $ 3.09 and milk tea by itself was $ 2.71. The place was pretty small and from what I counted, it could seat about 17. I guess there could have been more room for seats but the froyo machine took up a good portion of the area. There were a lot of flies inside, too.

I went to this place a few times for consolation food. Usually after badminton practices or matches. My friends Ray and Kali were the ones who introduced me to this place. (By the way, Ray works at Sweetea, he’s the guy who will randomly dance to «whine up» by Kat Deluna at work.)
Anyways, I usually drive all the way here for one thing: FUNNEL CAKE! We get everything on it. From vanilla ice cream to strawberries.
It’s incredibly good, but it’s so expensive for such a small quantity =(It’s better than PGA’s, though. Beat it’s price and taste!
I usually get funnel cake accompanied by q-​pop calamari. It comes up to around 10 bucks, WITHOUT A DRINK.
It’s not exactly a place for «poe» teens.
The parking lot is puny, by the way.
