The kids who work there are a hoot. The atmosphere and decor is obviously invested in and they have a lot of dietary-friendly options too. They change the decorations every season and make a mean aloe juice.Vegetarian options: If you let the barista know they'll help guide ya around milk. No meat in the teas. Lol.

Thank you so much for staying open late. My friend discovered this place. We were looking for a coffee shop thats open late and this place is “IT”. Great customer service, music 10/10, street parking, the drink tastes amazing, the place is aesthetically pleasing. Very clean and a great spot to hangout and study.

All good flavors and can adjust sweetness and ice levels. Can still taste the tea, not just syrups. Real fruit mash for some flavors. Regular drinks are fairly sweet so suggest less sweet for fruity drinks with sweet jellies if reguarly prefer not so sweet. Favorite go tos: monster boba, mashed taro with golden boba and creme brulee top, mulberry green tea.

I've been to a few Ding Tea locations, but this is hands-down the best one. Nice area (though parking can be a little difficult) and they're fast and efficient here, though I've rarely ever seen them get super busy and that's probably why. Their milk teas are creamy and tasty here, and they have a lot to offer in their menu.

This Ding Tea is in the hearts of Lents. You might have driven past and missed them, as their signs face the back of traffic. But it's worth stopping by. I enjoy the drinks here - most recently I got a matcha milk tea with boba and a hazelnut milk tea with boba. Both tasted good, and as usual it's nice to be able to adjust the ice and sweetness of the drink. The menu is pretty large so I'd love to keep coming back and trying new things. They're often busy but the staff is still friendly and works quickly! Plenty of seating and cute photo opportunities. Street parking only.

I came in on a Friday afternoon. Surprisingly was not too busy. However, the staff working didn't seem very friendly and or happy to take my order. I was not greeted upon entry or thanked on the way out. I hope the customer service here can improve.

A must go-to! Milk tea isnt too creamy, great taste of tea, and not overly sweet. Boba is just right!Parking is street but theres a parking lot across which has plenty of spaces!

The decor is gorgeous and was very relaxing and chill. Gave off an awesome vibe and the workers are extremely friendly. Get the Matcha Milk Tea, you won’t regret it!
Came in at 8:20pm today, left with two messed-up drinks that has me disappointed in this location- considering I've gone here for years now for consistently made drinks.The first thing I ordered was a matcha milk tea: a regular favorite of mine. What I got was a watery, soapy-tasting drink with old golden boba that lacked chewiness. I also got a Hokkaido oolong milk tea that had little to no oolong flavor and an odd Hokkaido taste. There was seemingly only one employee working at the front, having to handle the register as well as make drinks. If this was the case, management should have (at least) one more person to assist with drink-making and cleaning up for closing; the employee tonight reached a point where they were bringing a drink to the back and stirring it to do something in the back at the same time.Considering I brought a friend here to show them what Ding Tea is like, I will definitely reconsider coming here for boba in the future. A massive disappointment all around.

There are 2 ding tea locations in Portland, one on Williams and then this location. I have been to the one on Williams before and was blown away by how good their boba tea is, but it’s a hassle for find parking at that one so I have only been once. We were in the area, so we headed to the PDX location to try it out. While they don’t do blended boba tea at this location, their menu is huge and I think you could go there every day for a year and not try all the combinations. I got 2 drinks and they both were magical. I will absolutely come back for more and I already want to go again haha.

The Wintermelon was too sweet in my opinion, once the ice melted it was way better. The grass jelly had a nice texture and paired very well with the wintermelon. The service was quick and the worker provided some recommendations. The store is spacious and big. Parking can be difficult, I was able to find street parking right in front of their store but that's super rare.
