50 Best Bubble Tea near Hoboken

“Really nice blend of foam, sugar, and taro—meaning that none was overwhelming but refreshing in a way that’s rare for a flavor this intense. Love the pleasing colors and most importantly, the smooth as cream texture of the slushie drink. Would definitely recommend and I’m planning on getting the matcha flavor next time!“

“I stumbled upon this place because I was in the area. I got a brown sugar bubble tea. It was delicious, I love that I could taste the richness of the tea. I also got the unagi and spicy mayo salmon inari. They were really yummy! I would recommend giving this place a try.“

“Best Taro bubble tea in NY & NJ!“

“This is a hidden gem in the Lower East Side. They make pretty good boba but I want to talk about the interior. The nostalgia in here is amazing. Everything looks like it was personally selected. The the curation of this place is sick. I got the Grapefruit Delight. I was skeptical of trying it because I thought it would be tart but it was actually smooth. No tartness at all. With amount of lychee. Not to discredit how good the boba but this spot is fire to me and I would just chill in here if I could. Whoever did the decor needs a raise lol. Shout out to my guy Kenny great service and hospitality.“

“Chictea has a really wonderful atmosphere – totally loved the vibe there! And the service was absolutely top-notch, super friendly and attentive. The food was good, though I've had better. Still, the fantastic service and atmosphere make it a place I'd definitely recommend for a chill visit!“

“First, the owners that run this place are so friendly and go out of their way to make you feel welcome. I ordered a noodle bowl with marinated tofu and veggies, it was fresh and flavorful. I will definitely be back soon, I got my eye on them baos..“

“Maple sugar tea packed w gingerm“

“I love Heytea and this place was great. This time I tried the brown sugar milk boba without the tea since I can’t have caffeine. It was really good. I think the milk was thicker than I expected. I wish I got 25% sugar instead of half but it still tasted good. My friend got the mango coconut boom and she liked it.“

“We were first timer’s today… the girl that help us was so sweet and kind! The service was excellent! My son loved the brown sugar milk with bubbles!“

“I came in close to closing on a really rainy day, but Sharice (I’m so sorry if I misspelled it😭🙏🏼) was so sweet and took my order! Has great taste in music too! 🙂‍↕️ I had a really frustrating and tiring day, so thank you so much for making my day 🥹❤️“

“This is some of the highest quality tea I have ever had . They use hi quality tea leaves and fresh fruit that are custom made to order. So each drink is tasty and refreshing. The boba is the perfect chew and the various Jellies all have a unique and delicious flavor from sweet to sour.
I love how they offer the NO SUGAR option if you want to be healthier but still enjoy fresh bubble tea.
I was happy to get a full menu explanation of the different teas , jellies, and options from the sweet and very knowledgeable Emily at the order kiosk.
She has a great smile and energy that made me feel right at home. So I will see you all there next Saturday for some of the greatest boba in NYC!“

“So happy this place opened! Overall friendly service and nice selection of drinks and snacks. The waffles are delicious. My daughter and I usually get the fruit teas. My mom always order their taro bubble tea. Their classic milk tea and brown sugar milk tea are always good. I’m glad they offer oat milk.“

“Great shop It’s the best drinks around The owners are awesome !! Go back for more and more“

“Lots of board games, events all the time and very price efficient memberships for regulars. The two private rooms have their own temperature regulation for different preferences and going solo is an option because there’s usually staff open to playing with you, though I highly suggest bringing friends. I like their drinks :)“

“Delicious dumplings. They're so good. Also, I recommend the garlicky cucumbers for a light & tasty appetizer. Very clean, cozy, polite staff. 5 stars for sure.“

“I really enjoyed my visit to Rui Tea! I tried the Mango Bobo Coco and it was delicious—refreshing, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The staff was also super friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Definitely a place I’ll be coming back to!“

“Bubble tea and their pastries are amazing! I had the matcha cheesecake and it was delicious! Love the staff over there!“

“As someone who drinks boba often, I judge a boba spot based on boba texture not too soft or too hard and tea quality. This spot is a go to for me because they’re always consistent with their boba and tea. My go tos are the super fruit four seasons oolong tea when I’m feeling something refreshing and fruity. Then I get the dahongpao milk tea when I want something more caffeinated!“

“My years of restaurant visits finally led to this perfect meal. Beautiful space matched with genuinely friendly staff. They served good food with attentive service. All team members display pleasant attitudes. We'll definitely bring the family back here.“

“Hello everyone,
From classic milk teas to fruit teas and creative seasonal specials, this place truly has it all. I ordered the brown sugar milk tea with tapioca, and it was perfect — the boba was fresh, and you can tell they really care about quality here. The staff was patient and happy to explain the different options and give recommendations. I always stop by whenever I can to enjoy this delicious treat. I definitely recommend trying it!

“masarap yung chicken nila, and mag eenjoy talaga sa mga claw machine“

“After picking up shrimp rice rolls, conveniently went to the corner to pick up bubble tea. Clean, cozy & warm inside. I went for the cold coconut bubble tea. Menus are extensive and service was quick & friendly. Coconut flavor was delicious.“

“Delicious place first tome going today and I really liked it the pineapple green tea Nata jelly was super good. I’ll be going back for more.“

“I bought ice cream from this place instead of a cake for my birthday, and I'm glad I did! INCREDIBLY delicious flavorful ice cream with a nice, stretchy texture alongside soft fresh toppings, and they make sure you get a good amount of them too! The milk teas are good too! A lot of boba tea places I've bought from put too much milk, and it completely overpowers the tea flavor, but not this place! I strongly recommend the Earl Grey Milk Tea; it tastes like Earl Grey tea mixed with melted choco-vanilla ice cream in the best way possible. My personal favorites are the Thai Moment ice cream, and The Honeydew Milk Tea! 10/10 sweet treats! <3“

“Tried the juice bubble tea and fries- fries had a perfect crunch and the juices were a great blend of sweetness and chewiness. However, the spices on the fries felt a bit flat and lacked depth. Overall, a decent snack with bubble tea, but the seasoning could use some improvement. Place is small with a few seats, but i will say the price is perfect“

“Love coming here for bubble tea! Some of the best I’ve had in lower Manhattan. Service is quick and friendly too. Only a couple of barstools for seating so it’s more of an in-and-out kind of place. Their drinks tend to be on the sweeter end but if you let them know to make it half sweet then they turn out perfect for me.“

“Her boba has delicious coffee! My boyfriend and I come here all the time for a nice coffee treat ❤️ It is a small and cute cafe, and very relaxing. Definitely a gem of a coffee place for this area. Today I got the warm brown sugar latte since it was freezing outside., but I’ve also had the pb&j latte and it was delicious. My boyfriend got the tiramisu latte. The workers are very nice they also give my dog a pup cup and try their hardest to make she we are taken care of.“

“You cannot go wrong with Tenichi Mart. A great variety of Japanese foods from fresh and packaged groceries to snacks. (Seaweed potato chips? Yes please!) The sushi is always so fresh here and the staff is always very kind. 50% off their sushi, poke as well as hot entrees cannot be beat especially with the quality. (Tenichi used to have a highly rated full blown restaurant as well, and the quality has stayed intact). Arigatou to the Tenichi team for helping me feel the nostalgia of my Tokyo childhood with all my favorite snacks and continuing to feed into my adult-found love of sushi.“

“Amazing Fresh Onigari (rice balls) & delicious teas! (Cold, Hot, Bubble, No-Bubble) Support a local Mom & Pop shop & get fresh tasty food & drinks — win win win!!! (The line outside moves, one customer/group inside at a time due to COVID, & everything is made fresh to order — your patience will be rewarded!)“

“We looove this place and stop by almost every day for teas and food, it’s ridiculous! Everything is so tasty, and I could literally drink the rose lychee tea every day — it’s so good. All of the teas are incredibly flavorful. The sweetest people work there too!“

“The drinks are really good and well made. I usually get the mango milk tea with cheese foam and mango popping bubbles, and it’s so good!! Their brown sugar milk tea is also really good, probably one of the best I’ve had so far. And their cups are always so pretty with cute designs. Would definitely recommend!“

“Rating this 5-Stars. This new boba drink cafe is unlike any other boring same-old franchises out there. It has its own identity. You will absolutely love it once you step into the cafe. The interior decor is very warm and all filled with cute piggies everywhere once you walk in. Service was friendly and great. The entire time I was there, I witnessed both staffs working there were hands-on greeting every guests with bright smiles, preparing and making all the drinks by themselves with love. This is called great hospitality the whole nine yards👍👍👍 Definitely would come back. Best of luck!!! The following drinks are some of my favorites: Brown Sugar Milk Tea with Boba Mango Kumquat Lemon Green Tea Dragon Fruit Green Tea Passion Fruit Green Tea with Lychee Jelly Lychee Slush with Lychee Jelly“

“This has to be my FAVORITE boba tea shop in Staten Island! It has a great variety of boba teas to try so you can try something different every time!! My favorite has to definitely be getting the smoothies and adding popping boba. The owner is super sweet and makes the drinks always taste good when I go. The prices are good and it’s worth it since it just tastes so good!!!! If your looking for a new place to try some boba tea definitely come to Boba Le tea Cafe:) you won’t regret it 🫶🏼🫶🏼“

“As the title says… they make great boba and fries. One thing I don’t like though is how sugary their drinks are but you can modify that. The coconut milk tea and spicy fries are so good. The staff is really sweet and it’s a nice place to hang out since it’s never too busy.“

“Got their Brown Sugar Oolong Tea with Signature Cream and Brown Sugar Earl Grey Milk Tea with Signature Cream to go. I always appreciate free milk substitutions (lactose intolerance is a lifestyle at this point). I really liked how pronounced the tea flavors were and it wasn't too sweet at the regular sugar levels either. The prices are on the lower end compared to other bubble tea spots in this area.“

“Located in LIC, this location of I'Milky is right next to Court Square and a convenient stop for a small bite or quick drink. The inside of the shop is fairly small and probably can't fit more than ~5 people in there, so it's definitely a grab and go spot.

They have a deal here where you can get two onigiri and a drink starting from $15.95 (it gets more expensive if you get one of the premium onigiri or an expensive drink). When I went, I got their marinated pork and mala beef onigiri as well as their taro milk tea with purple rice. Their onigiri is a great deal and I loved them. It had flavorful meat, a great meat:rice ratio, and was a good size. Their drinks were good too. Would come back to try other drinks or get onigiri again~“

“I got the Pisces drink (mango/lychee/jasmine green tea) 70% sweet and less ice. It was perfectly sweet without being overly sweet or watery. The strawberry heart jelly was unique so I couldn’t help but try it!! I was told that the brown sugar milk tea was good as well and the prices are very reasonable considering the size (they only have one size, the drinks are about $5.50 but it might depend what you get) I’ll definitely come back again to try their other drinks, food, and desserts. They sell ice cream and mochi donuts too! They have a kiosk where you can order from and indoor seating. The service is fast.“

“it's a great place! the servers are also very nice and accommodating“

“Delicious! Ordered a strawberry matcha latte, a strawberry bingsoo, and a seasonal pick-- yakgwa bingsoo. It was so busy today but I didn't have a long wait after making my order. Very cute decor, decent seating; definitely will come back to try more drinks.“

“I got to know about this brand of pearl milk tea from the sharing of Taiwan YouTubers, I never thought I could enjoy it in New York. A Taiwanese friend of mine told me that she is a bubble tea lover. After trying it, I fell in love with it. 😍“

“Delicious bubble tea and very friendly service 🤗“

“Sparkling fruit boba, milk teas, fruit teas, everything I have tried so far is fantastic! They have a wide variety of flavors and types of drinks that gives you plenty of options to choose from. I want to try the food here soon as I have seen positive reviews of the waffles and other snacks. So glad to have this spot in the neighborhood“

“I went to Mogee Tea and ordered a brown sugar bubble milk tea, and it was already amazing. Then I accidentally spilled it (totally my fault), but the staff were incredibly kind about it. They immediately helped clean it up and even made me a brand-new drink for free. No attitude, no hesitation—just pure kindness and great service. The boba was 11/10, and the experience somehow made it even better. Truly the best boba spot.“

“The Fresh Fruits Coconut water is absolutely delicious 😋 & the dragon drink“

“Small store front that serves delicious bubble tea 🧋 and rice balls. They use all natural real ingredients for their teas (no powders). They also have non dairy milk options for teas including lactaid and soy milk. It was cold so we ordered the hot jasmine green milk tea with soy and boba. Very delicious. Also the rice balls 🍙 are made to order so you it was a awesome snack for the cold weather!!“

“Great quick service. Get the passion fruit bubble tea.“

“Cool refreshing drinks 😎clean nice place“
