The boba was one of the best I ever had and just because the boba isn’t like gongcha’s doesn’t mean that its bad. The claw machines were super fun and the toys are very high quality. THE KIMBAP IS AWSOME! Very recommended!?
Kid-friendliness: My kids enjoyed the workers very much!
They handle many situation (long story involving a car crash with the owner) professionally and their drink was amazing. I wish everyone the best.

I'm staying at Palpark for a while and stopping by all the cafes. The atmosphere is nice and relaxed.

My partner and I took my nephew and nieces here for bubble tea. Each of us ordered different flavors. My nephew ordered lemonade since he's not a fan of bubble tea. The staff was friendly. She answered all our questions and was patient with us. There were seatings so we were able to sit and wait for our order. Now the reason for two less star. Too much sugar. We all agreed our bubble teas were way too sweet. Even the lemonade had too much sugar. I got taro and I was too overwhelmed with the sugar to even enjoy it. I would recommend informing them how sweet you want your bubble tea. Another interesting thing was my taro bubble tea had a slushy consistency. It was creamy. Not actual milk tea. Same with the coconut and cookies&cream flavors. Another thing was the cookies&cream. It looked like chocolate. I'm used to seeing cookies& cream being off white with crushed Oreo looking pieces. In terms of the decor, the place is cozy. They serve shaved ice. On the weekday you can easily find seating to enjoy it. There are two arcade games inside. I found the price to play them to be pricey.

I’ve been coming here for years … until now. Injeolmi bingsu was our go-to thanks to the generous amount of ingredients, but it seems like they’ve finally succumbed to inflation and reduced the ingredient portion by a third. Now it’s just a typical milk bingsu with some sprinkles of nuts and injeolmi powder—nothing special about it. Say goodbye to the multiple layers of red bean, nuts, and injeolmi. Considering the inflation everywhere, I would have paid more as long as the quality of the dish remained the same. How disappointing.

Ordered mango bubble tea no bubbles, less ice . Unfortunately my bubble tea didn’t look like it at all, more like ice slush, was too sweet. I asked if it’s bubble tea , they said yes, it how their bubble looks like. I have a feeling that they just made wrong drink and didn’t want to say it.

Unclear what time they stop serving desserts. First time they told us they stopped serving bingsu at 830, so the next time we came in at 8 but was told their machine was off for the night. Only rating 3 stars due to the miscommunication, we enjoy the desserts when we can actually order them!
Came in for dessert after eating dinner elsewhere. The place is a little cramped but also had a cozy vibe. The staff is very friendly.Knew I had to try their bingsu. So glad it's offered even in the winter. We ordered the injeolmi bingsu. It took a few mins to create but it's well worth it and the presentation is beautiful. Definitely big enough to serve 2 people.All the ingredients tasted fresh. It's full of flavor and texture. I love that they use milk ice and also had a small cup of condensed milk to pour over top of the bingsu. They do not skimp out of any of the toppings. So many nuts, red bean, rice cake, and injeolmi powder.Definitely will be back to try the other flavors.

My absolute favorite cafe in NJ! Been going to cafe oak for about 6 years now and love to see how much it’s grown and can’t see myself going to any other cafe. You can get lots of work done here cause the atmosphere is really good to focus. Also the staff is really nice many people have worked here but never met a mean worker. and the owner is lovely. I bring lots of family here that need help with homework or studies. theres plenty of room and good food options. The kimbap is so good, usually sells out by the afternoon. The cold brew or americano is good and strong, and the bingsu and tteokbokki are also delicious.

The wasabi kimbap here is the most delicious. I've tried other things, but there's nothing like wasabi kimbap. I take it with me every time I go out and it's so delicious.
