Turnkey Bubble Tea Shop Opportunity in Prime Irvine Indoor/Outdoor Food-Court + In-line Retail.
Are you ready to own a buzzworthy bubble tea FRANCHISE destination in one of Irvine’s most trafficked retail zones? Here’s your chance to take over a well-established shop with food court presence and inline viability — giving you resilience even if the food hall traffic fluctuates.
Why This Shop Stands Out - Dual Format Flexibility
The business currently operates inside a bustling food hall, capturing strong foot traffic from adjacent restaurants. But the inline storefront is fully equipped to function independently — meaning even on off-hours for the court, you can continue serving loyal customers directly.
Proven Local Appeal
The location boasts a 4.1-star average from nearly 180 reviews on Yelp, reflecting a loyal base of tea lovers. Reviewers frequently praise quick service: “desserts in less than five minutes” and friendly staff.
Diverse, Customizable Menu
Customers rave about refreshing fruit teas, bubble waffles, and smooth cream teas. 10 unique teas are offered with fresh toppings made daily. Customizations to adjust sweetness, tea/coffee strength and toppings are key to repeat business.
Technology & Convenience Features
The shop is integrated with kiosk/self-order systems and mobile ordering (e.g. via Snackpass). Reviewers appreciate that the ordering process is “convenient and easy.”
High Visibility in a Retail Hub
Situated in a well-known retail / food hall complex. The location is prominent, with good walker traffic and name recognition among local tea drinkers. Located 2.5 miles from UCI and top rated high schools.

Fully built-out service space with tea brewing equipment, refrigeration, storage, POS/ordering kiosks
375 sf within a <4,000sf food court with other food retailers

Why This Is a Smart Acquisition
Resilient Business Model — The dual layout protects against dependence on food court foot traffic.
Latent Upside — With quality control improvements and sharper operations, profitability potential is high.
Strong Product Appeal — Bubble tea continues to trend upward, especially in Asian-American communities and among the younger demographic.
Built-in Demand — The name is already known locally (especially among tea fans), reducing the burden of starting from scratch.
Ideal Buyer: Absentee Owner
This business is best suited for a well-qualified buyer who is ready to grow a beverage-based retail shop.
