One of the better options for milk tea in Hoboken. I really enjoyed their classic bubble milk tea which I ordered as hot and it came out steaming.I appreciate that they don't charge extra for having non-dairy milk options, although toppings, size, and even making it hot costs extra.One can order through Snackpass or the kiosks in the store and they make the drinks rather quickly.

Cute and cozy, drinks are delicious but no place to sit and enjoy.

Best Bubble Tea I've had. The tapioca is always fresh (even when I get one minutes before they close ?)

The shop is cute and small. The staff was friendly and had a beautiful smile. The tea is okay here, and one of the warm bubble tea orders was in a soft plastic cup. That's a little disappointing. I like they have an option for almond milkParking: Terrible to find parking here.

came here spontaneously when i saw it pop up on desserts on yelp while i was in the area. was craving a fruit drink and this satisfied just that. we got the passion fruit lychee and mango milk. the passion fruit lychee was exactly what i thought it would-not too sour/overpowering whereas the mango milk was a definitely mango (not your typical mango milk if that makes sense-they use actual mangos so you taste natural mango flavor). both drinks came out to $13 which i believe is on the cheaper side for two large drinks w/ toppings. the only thing is, the place is small. no where to sit. you can order with them or on the kiosk. parking is limited so that may also be a challenge but overall i'm pleased with the grab & go drink!

Love this boba shop! We were regular customers and the staff were super friendly. We always forgot our stamp card that offers one free drink after purchasing 10, but they’d give us new ones and let us combine them later. Moved out of Hoboken a few months ago and really miss this boba shop.

Nice little boba tea spot for hoboken! I like using the self- service kiosks, and they are always quick. The drinks are delicious!

Came here for a quick midday pick me, my usual Matcha latte w/ 30% sweetness. I love that you can customize the sweetness it's one of my favorite things about Asian tea places. It's a very small shop with two self-service ordering kiosks but I love to order & interact with people, so took almost 5 minutes for them to take my order, but also the hot Matcha I wanted was not on the self ordering kiosk; came out pretty fast and it was delicious!
