Seattle Bubble Tea Guide: Young Tea and TP Tea

Sep 24, 2026 — by Seattle Beautiful Editorial Team

Looking for Seattle bubble tea? Start with a neighborhood that fits your day, then compare the current menus at Young Tea and TP Tea. This guide highlights three Seattle locations listed on the shops’ official websites, rather than claiming an exhaustive ranking.

Young Tea in Wallingford

Young Tea lists its Seattle shop at 2110 N 45th Street in Wallingford. Its focus is Taiwanese milk tea and the flavor of the tea itself. The business describes using quality tea leaves, fresh milk and housemade syrup, with sweetness and milk choices that customers can adjust.

If you want a tea-focused stop, look through the current menu before ordering and ask which drink best suits your taste. Young Tea also lists a Bellevue location; choose the Seattle ordering option when planning a Wallingford pickup.

TP Tea in the University District

TP Tea’s official Washington location directory lists its UW shop at 1312 NE 45th Street, Seattle. This is the Seattle location to check if your plans already center on the University District.

Confirm the menu, opening hours and pickup arrangements directly with the shop before making a special trip. Location-specific offerings can change, so use the address to make sure you are viewing the correct branch.

TP Tea in the Chinatown–International District

The same official directory lists TP Tea’s Seattle ID shop at 679 S King Street. Choose this location when exploring the Chinatown–International District rather than crossing town simply to follow a list.

TP Tea also lists a Tukwila branch. That location is outside Seattle proper; check the city and street address before placing an order.

How to choose your bubble-tea stop

For a useful comparison, decide what matters most: the tea flavor, milk choice, sweetness, toppings or convenience. Ask about available adjustments instead of assuming every drink can be customized in the same way. Check ingredient and dietary questions directly with staff.

Keep your route simple. Pick one shop near your other plans, check its current hours and choose a backup nearby if needed. Prices, hours and menus are not fixed in this guide because the shops’ own information is the best place to confirm them before you go.

Plan the rest of your Seattle outing

Pair your stop with our Seattle Food and Coffee guide, explore the Seattle neighborhoods guide, or use the Seattle Explorer Map to build a route.
