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!“

“The quality here rises to heights that demand recognition. The food here reaches impressive heights. The staff balances information with attentive care. The meals show attention to quality and freshness unexpected in quick-service places. Lifting my glass in appreciation!“

“I ordered the garlic fried pork and the beef with garlic green beans—both were incredible! The pork was tender and packed with flavor, while the beef dish was hearty and comforting. I also tried the strawberry fizzy drink, which was so refreshing with just the right touch of sweetness. The staff were super friendly, the portions generous, and the prices very fair. I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend!“

“It’s so nice to have a boba place in the neighborhood. The boba is pretty fresh from what I’ve had, and the fact that the store closes so late is a huge benefit for a night owl like me. Their selection is pretty fruit-heavy. Just be aware that the kitchen closes earlier than the store as a whole.“

“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.“

“Best Taro bubble tea in NY & NJ!“

“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..“

“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.“

“I’ve been coming to this place since their grand opening. The food is always so good! And the drinks are really nice and pretty and the staff is always really understanding. A go to spot for me. They also close really late so I can always come for a late night craving.“

“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!“

“Maple sugar tea packed w gingerm“

“They are genuinely too nice the worker Chaurise Moore is the best she saw has a big ball of energy and she is so fun to be around I could always go to Sakura Japan and get boba over there since it closed to my bus stop but I take my time instead to get this boba cause it is genuinely the best.☺️“

“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.“

“The other reviews already say everything, of if i could go beyond 5 stars. I had a cold and asked if they had hot tea. The lady offered to make me a hot lemon honey tea which wasnt even on the menu and asked me if i wanted it any sweeter after my first sip. I also ordered a mochi donut and it was the most delightful thing ive ever tried. Im a cheapskate, but those 4.25 were worth every penny. Super nice people and just a calm atmosphere, can only recommend!!!“

“Their dishes never disappoint. Staff responds promptly. Prices match experience. Yumpling combines trendy style with attentive service. The savory dishes we tasted were fantastic, artfully displayed and well-matched. Employees combined outstanding assistance with genuine kindness and giving nature. My return is a certainty.“

“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!“

“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!“

“I really REALLY liked that Place! The Café was so cute and the staff was so nice i almost fainted! Its Like a Dream come true 🤓🤓🤓 i just wanted a delicious boba 🧋 After the Sushi Restaurant! The boba i got was peach pink Limonade with lichee Gelee and topioca bobas. The Logo,i think, was very cute! They also have Sandwiches noodles and stuff! I would totaly come back here whatever Chance i got! The boba it Self was kinda chewy (or how u spell it) but idk if its good or Bad. But one Word to discribe the boba: delicious !“

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

“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!

“Amazing Drinks To Get And So Many Delicious Food Options. You Can Also Play Arcade Games To Win Prizes.“

“I’ve been coming here for close to a decade and the drinks have always been consistently great, with kind and fast service. I usually make a mad dash here after waiting in the Wah Fung line and the owner is always courteous to let me eat outside food in his store, which he doesn’t have to do. There’s lot of chain options on this block (KFT, Molly a few steps away, etc) but I always come back here because the tea is great (I love the Oolong Peach!) and not corporate-backed. Three sets of tables and chairs to hang with friends and take a reprieve from the heat“

“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.“

“Hidden gem you must try! I had the most delicious Matcha Taro bubble tea. Fresh ingredients, no processed or added sugar. Owner was kind and super friendly. 10/10 would recommend. Their tacos made with a soft sweet plantain look amazing, will try next time I go back.“

“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.“

“Ten Ichi Mart is incredible! My mom has been coming for over a year and loves the sushi, especially the popular half off deal after 8pm. The quality speaks for itself. They also have a wide range of Japanese products that are hard to find in other markets. Their matcha is high quality and sourced from Japan. Thank you!! 🙏🏼☺️“

“I loved the service it was so clean they are so creative and the boba is so good it is delicious“

“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!)“

“It's possible that I was just hot and thirsty, but I swear to god, this was the best eight dollar frozen grapefruit drink I've ever had the pleasure of drinking. i got mine thirty percent sweet and added aloe. is it expensive as all get out? yes. would I go back? also yes.“

“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!“

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

“Love this spot! Bobba Huba has a super creamy milk chocolate boba tea and an amazing chocolate chunk cookie—both hit the spot. There’s also a claw machine for some fun while waiting, and the place works as an internet cafe if you want to hang out or get work done. Bonus: they give out a loyalty card and after buying 8 drinks, the 9th one is free. Friendly staff and a chill vibe make it a go-to for a sweet treat and a little break in the city.“

“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.“

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

“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“

“Came here on a cold night after my friends wanted to play board games. My friend’s house was super far away but this place was great!

There were lots of selections and we decided to play Catan and exploding kittens. I have not tried a drink but I would next time. Workers were really nice too :)“

“Low key one of my favorite (if not favorite outright) bubble tea places in the entire city. The service is great, the prices are reasonable (bubble tea is so expensive these days), and it just has a nice casual vibe. It's never too packed or rowdy. And most importantly, the bubble tea is always great.

My go-to here is the peach oolong with tea jelly and it never disappoints. The peach flavoring isn't overly artificial or cloyingly sweet like it can be at other places. It's really good!

Location is really nice as well, you can take your tea to go and chill in Washington Square Park nearby. Makes for a great afternoon or evening.“

“I’ve visited Modern Tea Shop before, and was super happy with my drink (rose milk tea). Today I decided to try it again and go for a different flavor! They have a lot of floral-inspired teas which is unique and a great reason to go. I got the matcha jasmine milk tea (oat milk) with boba (50% sugar), and thought it was 7/10. The oat milk wasn’t as creamy, so it caused the drink to be a bit watery unfortunately. Also, the jasmine flavor was not very pronounced, either due to the way it’s made or the sugar level I chose. Not sure I would get that drink again, but would recommend the rose milk!“

“worker at the store who took my order was super nice, prices are reasonable too, but the space was a little small (doesn't really matter if you want to take out), they also take tap/apple pay if you don't carry cash, drink itself was very good too (i got the brown sugar black milk tea, medium) though it was too sweet at the bottom, but you just have to mix the sugar in with the tea first, definitely recommend coming to this place!“

“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~“

“Saw a review that said they weren't as busy on early Wednesdays, so I went on an early Wednesday and sure enough there was no line. I got a strawberry matcha which tasted really good, but do note that the strawberry is highly concentrated and may overpower the matcha if you prefer a stronger matcha flavor. Still very satisfied and will be back to try more options. Picture of the nearly-finished drink included, with a picture in the dark for reference.“

“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.“

“Delicious bubble tea and very friendly service 🤗“

“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. 😍“

“Such a cute and tasty hidden gem . We came for a car wash and I wandered across the street to this magical little spot .
Honestly you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu, everything is gonna treat you right but my personal favorite is the A6 .“
