50 Best Bubble Tea near Astoria

“My friends who live in Astoria took us (me & my cousin & her son) to this boba place. I had Brown Sugar Milk Tea w/ black pearl, and boy, I loved it esp the soft, chewy pearl! I highly recommend it!

PS: service could improve though. I guess the girl who served us had a long day already - she had this poker face and dealt with us like she wasn’t feeling well.“

“love the protein bowl! love all the juices!“

“Excitedly ran into this place after watching a boring movie & it cheered me up! I asked the nice gentleman which one was there best seller, he replied " Toro" so I had to try that.

My drink was yum, right amount of sweetness! Excipient customer service. Very clean & colorful . Loved the use of bright green, very inviting!“

“Small & quaint & have WiFi & charging stations. Matcha green te was awesome“

“Edit: Thank you for the reply. I visited the shop again on a Sunday afternoon and I was positively surprised by the rapidity of the service (less than 10 minutes wait). The drinks were very good and tasty too.

Good menu choice, however I have been here twice and both times I waited an unacceptable long time (40+ minutes) for a single simple drink. The pick up process is unstructured and unreliable. What's the point in waiting if you cannot even receive your drink. Strongly not recommended.“

“Best Taro bubble tea in NY & NJ!“

“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’ve been wanting to come here for the past 2 months here. Last night, finally I was able to come. I am shocked that they’ve been in business for more than a year and I just found them now?Being an avid bubble tea lover along with my kids, I can’t say enough good things about this place. It is a hidden gem in the heart of JSQ. The owner is very down to earth and a people person. You won’t step out of that place without a smile. She will make your drink according to your preference. You can make as many adjustments as you’d like and she will do it with a smile.

We ordered 2 Oreo shakes and a latte bubble tea. I ordered them in M size, but she gave me in L size? and still charged me for M. My kids loved their Oreo shakes and I very much enjoyed my latte. I can’t wait to go back and try the other bubble tea flavors and the waffles and crepes.

I pray that their business thrives and expands!“

“This is one of the best Boba places I ever been too. The lady at the front first greeted me how was your day with the most kindest attitude. May god bless her. Then I got my Boba and it was filled with surprises and it was so yummy. When I left she interested me in a cheesecake. When I got i almost cried because of how good it was. Great place recommended to others.

Kid-friendliness: Said my son was cute“

“I would give this place a million billion stars if I could. Every single employee that I saw there is SO friendly. The milk tea is the best I’ve ever had, and I absolutely loved the tofu/inari pockets, fresh, delicious seafood. The eel literally gets torched in front of you which is just such a lovely detail to how much they care about their customers’ experience. The people here brighten my day, especially tonight when I wasn’t having such a great day, their attitude just gave me such a wonderful vibe and energy… honestly made me happy. thank you guys so much for being who you are, and stay that way, our world needs it :’)“

“Maple sugar tea packed w gingerm“

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

“The staff member who took my order was super sweet, and my food was ready within 10 minutes. The popcorn chicken was juicy, crispy, and flavorful. There were photos of Taipei, fitting for the food served. The restaurant was modern with a few tables for small groups and individuals.“

“Walked in with my 19 year old son and was and greeted with friendly and pleasant conversation. Regular bubble tea and crushed lime green tea was great. Very friendly female working there. Gave recommendations of things to try next time and spoke with my son about the asian version of "Lays" snacks that they're selling in the store. Good vibe estabishment and I wish em the best.“

“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.“

“Clean and amazing food! The kids got taro bubble tea, strawberry mango smoothies. Both were so refreshing. We also got the Bahmi sandwich with marinated grilled pork. The sandwich was packed with flavor and bread was fresh. Overall a great place for a quick bite!“

“Great little spot for anytime of the day. The inside is welcoming and bright. Beautifully decorated and has a few seats to sit down and relax and enjoy your treats. There’s also a little nook that has some books to enjoy while sipping on your delicious beverage.The staff was friendly and efficient.Can’t wait to return and try some waffles and other drinks.“

“Our family had a pleasant experience during our visit. The establishment was well-maintained and peaceful, and the cuisine was delicious. The staff provided excellent service. We highly recommend this establishment and look forward to returning in the future.“

“Second time stopping by, even more impressed than the first. I got the Rose Blossom the first time, and it was amazing, but oooh I love Star Girl. I got less sugar or 30% or something and it was perfect.

Never been much of a fruit tea girlie but my mind has been changed. Stopping by every time I’m in the neighborhood now.“

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

“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.“

“The quality here is great, with flavors that cater to every tastebud. Each ingredient, from the fresh fruits selected to the freshly brewed coffee and tea, shows the attention to detail, which truly sets this place apart. They use real taro, mango, persimmon, watermelon..etc for the drinks, a rare find! Sugar level and other modifications can be easily made.

I highly recommend trying their seasonal specialties, which rotate regularly to showcase the freshest ingredients. And of course, the classic flavors are always a hit. Even your furry friends will love it, making this a must-visit spot in JC! Very accessible and right next to the Path

Kid-friendliness: Super kid friendly located in a safe, and not crowded plaza for families to enjoy the drinks.

Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of ramps for wheel chair to access the store.“

“Please replace the go holders for plastic cups you actually use! 😔. The ones you have are useless to say the least. They don’t fix drinks , which wobble while you ride and always fall leaking out whenever you make even a lean car turn or brake .“

“A gem of a place, with phenomenal products - high quality, refined flavors, and no gimmicks. Have tried several of the teas and I'm excited to return. It's a small space, with limited but nice staff, and service is slightly slow but worth it. This place is not only worth a stop, but is also worth a special detour if you're in the area.“

“The store has a beautiful concept and the drinks are soooo good!!“

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

“I came across this boba tea shop on a Thursday evening after a friend recommended. It had a few indoor seats so I was able to order my drinks and chat with friends for awhile. I ordered the classic bubble milk tea with 25% sugar and it was just sweet enough (but not too sweet)! This was honestly so yummy and the boba was super soft. It's one of the best bobas I've had in awhile in NYC and reminds me of the ones I've had in China. I honestly preferred this over Kung Fu tea which is right across the street. Not to mention, my drink was under $5 which is way more affordable than other tea shops. I was craving this so much that I had to come back the next day to try their popcorn chicken as well. To my surprise, their popcorn chicken is also delicious. It's has a crispy crunch and the chicken is tender and well seasoned. It also came with a spicy chili sauce on the side. Overall, I highly recommend to stop by for a quick drink and snack! Now I'm craving more boba!“

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

“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.“

“I always go to the one in downtown Brooklyn but I believe they shut down so I went here.
The lady in the front was nice & I asked for cheese form but I don’t think she heard me so she gave a regular queen drink, mango & strawberry. She was pretty quick with the drink, around 5 minutes it took.
I definitely do recommend the cheese form drinks, mango & strawberry, with white pearls! Those are my fav.“

“I patronized this place for the first time today and this was purely by happenstance. I was delighted with the service and the cleanliness of the place, it was refreshing to actually find a place that looked clean and served quality cold beverages. The majority of businesses in that general area, with similar products are of a lower quality, and just did not seem appealing to me, to finally find a place like this little nook was a relief! The servers are young and eager to deliver and very pleasant as well. This place is clean and offers quality food, and service and the prices are affordable too. Please give them a try.“

“Delicious bubble tea and they have tables & chairs to sit down :) We were in town, tired from walking all day, and craving bubble tea. Their boba is beautifully cooked and easy to chew. Lots of flavor and topping options and you can customize ice and sweetness. Bonus: dairy-free milk alternatives. The staff were friendly and helpful. You can order online ahead of time, at a kiosk, or with an actual person. We’ll be back!“

“Staff is super sweet and lovely, tea is TO DIE FOR like literally amazing. Do not hesitate to get this!!! It's fairly priced and super vegan friendly (no up charge 😍😍😍😍) will literally be here every time I'm at Chelsea“

“Great takoyaki. And tried the Gemini tea. Soooo good! A must and will definitely come back again.

Kid-friendliness: It's fun for kids to sit by their little bar stools. Although tight space, design wise it ok. My son loved the Gemini tea as well, less sugar with jelly.“

“Want tea around NYU campus? Sip perfection with customized drinks like Unforgivable and Chijito here at Chihiro Tea. Best tea in the neighborhood! Cute, cozy interior, though a bit cramped with students. Don't miss the NYU student discount. A must-visit oasis, especially in steamy summer!“

“I was pleasantly surprised by the drinks that this place has. I came in with low expectations and was found myself enjoying the drinks here a lot. It doesn’t have the fake artificial taste that we’ve grown accustomed to, and the latte was also amazing. Fries are made fresh to order and require you to wait a few minutes, but it comes out piping hot and you will burn your mouth if you eat it right away. It has amazing crisp and the Cajun has good spice to it.“

“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. 😍“

“It’s my first time trying that spot. It’s okay, but they have poor customer service. The lady serving seems unhappy, probably overwhelmed by the number of people ordering. The price is reasonable, so I might try another again when I go back“

“They make the best bubble tea. They're also really hospitable. I go there a lot. Buy ten teas and get one free. I've done this twice already, and I'm almost at my third free tea.

Parking: It's in a mall area“

“Great local boba shop. Good selection of caffeine free options for the kiddos. My daughter likes the dragon mango coconut slush. I sometimes have a roast pork bun.

Kid-friendliness: Good selection of caffeine free options and if you are lucky they’ll give you a sticker!“

“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 ?.“

“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.“

“Muy delicioso 😋 me encantaría que esté en mi país Ecuador“

“Ones I come to this cafe , I feel so much better then I am ever. Cause the food they serve is always delicious and well made with full of love and care. I would recommend to everyone who wants to get the cute and sweet vibes . As the employees are really welcoming and nice all the time. Thank you for this!??“

“This is by far the BEST boba tea place in NYC, if not the country (I've tried quite a few up and down the east coast). In fact, I didn't think I liked boba until having Shiny Tea's tasty pearls. Their tea has so much flavor, so much depth. I highly recommend coming here, as often as you can, and trying as many combinations as possible. Passionfruit wenshan, pineapple black, and their winter melon oolong (or mint--both quite different from each other) are some of my favorites. Their milk teas are fantastic as well. Treat yourself!!!! :)“

“I get takeout from here all the time and the food is AMAZING but for some reason the plastic fork they provide always breaks while eating and I'll find myself biting into a loose prong halfway through my bowl??? This happens like every 2 out of 3 times too so I know it's not just a one off thing. Super odd but that would be my only ask that they get better utensils lol

Also the spam musubi here is fire, def try that“

“When I looked at the menu, I thought this cup tastes delicious and the three-layer color is quite beautiful. It's not bad to drink. I ordered sugar-free. Strawberries themselves are already sweet, so it will be just right to drink after stirring😃👍“

“You can taste freshly baked walnut cookies at Cocohodo, and they are so delicious!! The atmosphere is cozy and cute, and the coffee is delicious!!“
