Bubble Tea near Palisades Park

“Favorite place to get boba - especially for my lactose intolerant guys+girlies because Boba Land makes my order with almond milk and I order the same thing every time. It hits EVERY TIME. *** I already had some huge sips before doing this review / taking this photo lolllllll sorry“

“Appreciation post😃 Since 4 days my freshly turned teenage daughter has been saying one thing when I ask her what you want to do on New Year’s Eve …” I want to have kudos bubble tea as the last thing I drink in 2022”. It’s been a tough few months for her and i wanted to make sure she gets her wish. So yesterday morning I called kudos. Asked when they will close for the day. They said 10pm. We scheduled all our plans in such a way that at 9pm we go and get the much anticipated bubble tea. At 9 my husband, son and daughter headed out to kudos… only to find that they have closed at 7 for a private event. This is my back story. On the other side of the story… which probably has its own back story… Cherie the owner had shut the bakery as her daughter wanted to celebrate with her friends and family. As a mother myself I can totally understand that. When she saw my family she informed them that they are closed. But when she heard we had called in morning and saw my daughters dejected face… she opened her doors. Made a quick bubble tea and even gave some extra cookies as a New Years treat. My kids came back so happy saying “mommy it was a holiday miracle!” Thank you Kudo Society Cafe. For providing us one last 2022 miracle. Thank you Cherie for understanding. We have been Kudos patrons since it was at palisades park but now we are die hard advocating neighbors of yours. Ps: pic of the cookie treat. My son ate the red velvet on way home.“

“Gong cha is located on the Broad St of palisade park area. Very convenient location. Street parking.

Some tables inside but mostly are take outs. Their drinks are very consistent. Boba is well prepared, sweet with great texture. We had Thai milk tea + boba, dirty brown sugar + boba and oolong + boba. I suggest 30%-50% sugar.

My daughter got a boba tea keychain. Cute merchandise for kids.“

“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..“

“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!“

“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.“

“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“

“Have a chat with Santa he is a treat ! 🥰“

“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 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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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!

“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.“

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

“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.“

“Went to gong cha for the first time ever and I got a mango milk slushee with mango pearls and it was absolutely fantastic. I also got a strawberry milk tea with pearls which was ok I personally didn’t like it but the slushee was just amazing. The person working was an absolute sweetheart ?.“

“Amazing place, owned by amazing people. I have been coming here for years. The bubble tea is the best I have ever had. Try their lychee fruit tea and their mango fruit tea. It’s fresh and yum. They just started catering as well! Needless to say highly highly recommend! Nothing but good things to say!!!“

“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!)“

“i tried the mango milk and my gf had matcha milk. we also got nuggets, mozzi sticks, fries and i think my gf got a eel onigiri. i cant speak for the onigiri cause i didnt try it but all of the food was hot and crispy and honestly the nuggets gave better mcd nuggets. and it was all pretty affordable. we got all that for under 35$ if i remember correctly. the drinks were sweet and creamy but a good price for the size.“

“Absolutely outstanding ice cream! Nice inside, plenty of space and the cakes and chocolates looked lovely, 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!“

“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.“

“Wow! That Popcorn Chicken Has to be The BEST I’ve ever had in my life, and almost safe to say might be For the rest of it! Chicken was Juicy and Fresh and Full of crunch and flavor. I got the Pomegranate Slushy and it was PPERFECT! He told me it would be a bit sour before ordering to make sure I was ok with that, I find that Very Key to a Great food spot Making sure the customer Understands and is Satisfied with the Order. I will be Returning %100! THANK YOU“

“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~“

“This place is the only place in bergen county area if you happen to be craving bubble tea at midnight, they are open. Met Mau today and he rang me and as I'm sensitive to corn syrup, I appreciated that he shared that with me unlike my previous visits. It will be my go-to bubble tea place from now on“

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

“*Shoyu Ramen (pork-mild spicy) + extra egg + extra grilled pork belly
*Mango Bubble Tea
*Taro Bubble Tea

Total $ 33.63 (Uber Eats)

Definitely I will go this weekend to the restaurant!!
Delicious!!“

“Delicious bubble tea and very friendly service 🤗“

“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.“

“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 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. 😍“

“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.“

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

“Cool refreshing drinks 😎clean nice place“

“they workers are super sweet!! great costumer service“

“The tea is amazing and refreshing. I got the dong ding oolong tea with fresh milk and grass jelly. The tea is great and not too strong, but not too weak either. The grass jelly was the perfect amount of sweet. I would definitely recommend this place to whoever likes boba places.“

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