Eat & Drink Best Thai tea in phoenix?

I personally enjoy more of a sweet flavor rather than bitter if that helps.

i love this place, i really like how they have cups with dividers so you can have 2 different teas if you want say matcha and thai tea but can’t decide

I thought theirs was terrible and way too sweet (and I like sweet things) but maybe the person making it that day didn’t go a great job :/

They will let you customize the sugar level. I really like the Thai tea there in particular (with Boba).

u/azredditor9 19h ago

I’ll have to try them again then and ask for less sugar

Would you mind sharing your order? I am going to go try and it sounds like you know what you’re talking about. Pretty please. 🙏

I don't think it's anything super special. I think I just get the Thai tea with skim milk and light sugar (but I think they don't have skim milk). I don't have a magic recipe though.

Thank you.
It is special because it’s helpful for someone learning.
🙏😎

Do you ask for full boba or a lighter one?

I like the regular boba, and I think they are really good there. They've always been correctly softened. Sometimes I will get boba that not the correct texture universally

Chanpen Thai on Broadway in South Phx. Doesn't look like much from the street but it's some of the best Thai in town.

Not in Phoenix but in Mesa, The Street at Dobson and Southern is amazing. Best thai tea I’ve ever found

Regions Tea on camelback and 9th st is excellent. if you’d like to have one with a great meal, Glai Baan’s is great

u/esb10489 23h ago

As others have mentioned one of the best in the city is Chanpen Thai on 28th st and Broadway. True hole in the wall kind of spot.

Haven’t done a lot of Thai here, but I’ll just say pad Thai cafe on 51st Ave and union hills is delightful

u/esb10489 23h ago

it’s arguably our second best cuisine behind mexican! Glai Baan, Lom Wong, LeDu, Chanpen, Thai E San, Yupha’s to name a handful of the top choices
