The boy with glasses, I think his name is Kit, makes drinks really good. But the place is understaffed and my order usually takes awhile.

The Strawberry Creme Brulee is good 😃

Ordered 2 other drinks and it did not take long at all.

I just went there and the matcha was so bad, so overly sweet. No matcha taste at all. Nothing was mixed in my drink, it wasn’t even a green color. I also ordered a dirty brown sugar milk tea with milk foam and it was horrible, this drink is consistently really good. The new workers have not been making the drinks good, they used to be very high quality.

I went to get a matcha latte with boba and the matcha was not properly mixed which also tasted quite powdery and you can clearly the the green tea powder itself in the drink.

I usually enjoy Gong Cha, but my recent experiences at this location have been consistently disappointing. Every time I order a drink with milk foam, they forget to add it—every single time. It might seem like a small detail, but it’s something I specifically pay extra for, and it’s frustrating when it’s repeatedly overlooked.

It makes me feel like attention to detail and customer care just aren’t a priority here. I expected better from a brand like Gong Cha.

Hoping they take this feedback seriously and improve their quality control, because right now, it’s not worth coming back.

I went yesterday and it was extremely disappointing, as someone who has managed a boba tea shop for three years, and has experience making drinks, they were way too slow. I waited 30 minutes in the shop for two drinks, and I could see the methods they used, (like machines and set up) were similar to my shop, but they simply were very slow. Also, I could see the number of cups and orders were approximately 10–15, which in my experience shouldn’t take that long. I ordered an earl grey milk tea with toppings which was good, as well as a mango mini boba smoothie, which the smoothie had very large chunks of ice in it, like almost whole ice cubes, probably not blended completely. The employees had pleasant attitudes, it was just the wait time that seemed ridiculous to me.

Ordered a medium drink for $5.75 but total came to $8.15 after I tapped my card. Requested for a receipt to see the break down and saw they charged a $2 tip. Asked the cashier and he said “maybe you accidentally tapped it” and didn’t offer to do anything. I don’t think I “accidentally” chose a custom tip of $2, because $2 is 34.78% and the screen wouldn’t have that option. Literally stealing smh

Good milk tea, spent $7 bucks for a large ice order

I recently visited this Gong Cha location, and unfortunately, my experience was disappointing. When I walked in, the guy at the counter seemed irritated, clearly more focused on his Chinese TV show than serving customers. I placed my order, and his attitude was immediately noticeable—rude and unprofessional.

When it came time to pay, he tossed my money onto the counter without a word and then threw my change back at me. It's frustrating when people working in customer service act like they don't want to be there. If you're not happy working, maybe it's time to consider a different job.

There are plenty of other bubble tea spots around, and I won't be returning to this one.

my go-to boba tea place in quincy! the boba tea is good & i'd definitely recommend trying all kinds of tea there including limited edition ones. even during limited time events where they give free stuff such as the pins or the final fantasy event, the items r cute and i could definitely make it work w/ everyday fashion!! the workers r friendly too and the atmosphere is quiet, but if its busy it can be a bit chatty there hahaha 😂 the service is good & the wait would only be a couple minutes

One of my favorite place to get my boba drink.

Seemed overly expensive. However, I don't typically go here or get this type of item. So I have no idea

The Attempt

I have been coming here (5+ times) despite a few unfriendly encounters, but the tea itself is really not worth the $5+ price tag. Not saying it’s the barista’s job to put on a show, but you’re working a customer facing gig, at least come prepared to deal with people. I had such great experiences with Gong Cha elsewhere that I’m thoroughly in shock that I’m even writing a 1-star review here.

Like no basic greetings when you come in, generally lack of passion for tea. Most times I walk in, it feels like I’m interrupting their break. Not saying the next door Kung Fu is any better, but it sucks so bad that after a nice lunch or dinner there’s really no enjoyable dedicated boba experiences around.

If I can make better bobas at home, WHY AM I PAYING FOR INCONSISTENT TEAS AND SERVICES? The one time I had tolerable tea and positive service was with a female staff that came to greet me even when she was restocking in the back room. What is in the air at this location? I hope they read the review and really think through why they’re in the business cause seriously this ain’t it chief. đŸ€Šâ€â™€ïž

Way understaffed. Came in and there was only one employee in the entire store. He had to take everyone’s order since the wall machine wasn’t working, and then had to make them all. He also kept having to retype everything from one tablet into an iPad on ten register that slowed him down. He was working so fast but couldn’t keep up with people coming in while being totally alone.
