50 Best Bubble Tea in Brooklyn

“I stumbled upon this place because I was in the area. I got a brown sugar bubble tea. It was delicious, I love that I could taste the richness of the tea. I also got the unagi and spicy mayo salmon inari. They were really yummy! I would recommend giving this place a try.“

“Chictea has a really wonderful atmosphere – totally loved the vibe there! And the service was absolutely top-notch, super friendly and attentive. The food was good, though I've had better. Still, the fantastic service and atmosphere make it a place I'd definitely recommend for a chill visit!“

“Sooo good, the boba is nice and sweet just as I like it, the rice balls are very good and hot. The place is nice and calming with a bunch of choices on the menu that fit my liking. Overall the place is very clean and people should visit it more😊.“

“Huge selection of board games. Catan, Wingspan, Coup, Heat, Betrayal, Exploding Kittens to name a few of my favorites that I saw. Shout out to Aron for suggesting some new stuff and chatting with me about pokemon he knows his stuff, super friendly! Also alot of tgc being magic and Pokemon alot of the new sets too. Good vibes and energy here.“

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

“the queen of oolong milk tea and spice crab avocado onigiri is my go to and never ever disappoints. oolong milk tea is my favorite and i can never find it anywhere so i’m so happy there’s a spot near me now that has it and it’s delicious. the onigiri… no notes. so good. especially the spicy crab and avocado one. it’s my current hyperfixation, i’m obsessed. the customer service is also always great.“

“This spot is a go-to spot for me. Love the products and the sushi is great here for everything Japanese. There’s 50% off sushi after 8pm deal is genuinely so amazing for dinners. Can’t find it anywhere else that I’ve been too. Service is a 10/10 too.“

“Stopped by after work ordered a Passion Fruit Green tea and a crab rice roll. The bubble tea and the rice roll were both delicious!

The service was also great, very nice and welcoming workers.

Will definitely be coming here often“

“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.“

“I really enjoyed going to the store. Me and my friend got magic matcha and rose Sakura (I believe there called) it seems to be a small business but even besides that the women ordering my drink was very sweet and spared me off 50cents because I didn't have the full money to pay. We sat there and it was very clean and smelt nice. I enjoyed seeing the family vibe of the store, the father playing with the little baby and how nice there was to us. I recommend going here it genuinely so nice and welcoming I'm definitely coming back again“

“The MUST-TRY Golden Mango Strawberry Pomelo!! 🥭🍓
This used to be my favorite seasonal drink, and now it’s finally available all year round! The mango is super sweet, the pomelo adds the perfect citrus kick, and the strawberry ties everything together. If you see this on the menu, you HAVE to try it!“

“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“

“Delicious homemade crepes with customized fillings. I prefer savory crepes and the crepe itself is seasoned well and stuffed generously. Affordable prices and lots of options available. Staff answers all questions and works to create a customized crepe if you want.“

“I came in and ordered 3Q Milk Tea and the Waffle Custard Filling.
The milk tea tastes really different from your usual bubble milk tea. At first, I didn't like the initial taste but it grew on me the more I drank it.
As for the Waffle Custard Filling, it tastes really soft when eaten fresh and it's not super sweet. So the waffle might be ideal for someone who isn't a strong sweet tooth.“

“Tbaar is my favorite bubble tea spot across all boroughs. I order the standard milk tea (black tea base) with boba from all bubble tea places, and Tbaar holds as my favorite. It's got a little something extra with a sweet, roasted flavor and the boba itself is solid. I usually get 50% sweetness with every drink, as their fruit tea is also nice, specifically the aloe grapefruit. Lucky to have it in Park Slope.“

“I had an amazing experience at Pokeworks! The teriyaki chicken poke bowl was incredibly fresh and flavorful, with generous toppings like avocado and spicy mayo. The quality of the ingredients was top-notch, and the portions were satisfying. The atmosphere was casual and inviting, perfect for a quick meal. Highly recommend trying it for delicious poke!

​“

“They have an amazing selection of fruit tea flavors compared to most bubble tea places. The owner was extremely nice, and I could tell how much she cares about her shop and her customers. The tea I got was not overly sweetened and was extremely refreshing. Will definitely be coming here when I can!“

“Musha Sushi is such a great spot in Brooklyn! I came here recently and everything was super fresh and delicious. The sushi rolls were made perfectly — great texture, clean flavors, and the ingredients tasted high quality. The presentation was also beautiful and looked like something from a higher-end restaurant.

The staff was friendly and the place felt cozy and welcoming. Prices were very reasonable for the quality. If you’re in the area near Sterling Pl, this is definitely a sushi spot worth trying.

Highly recommend and I’ll be coming back again!

📍 Musha Sushi – 863 Sterling Pl, Brooklyn, NY 11216“

“Amazing food, friendly staff two thumbs up“

“Great bubble tea, great service, and a great atmosphere. The drinks are always fresh and taste amazing, with just the right amount of sweetness. The staff are very polite, friendly, and welcoming, which makes every visit enjoyable.

The shop is clean, and orders are prepared quickly. You can tell they care about both the quality of their drinks and their customers. Definitely one of my favorite bubble tea spots, and I will be coming back again. Highly recommended!“

“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.“

“Gong Cha is such a fun and refreshing spot! The staff are always friendly, welcoming, and super helpful, making every visit smooth and enjoyable. The atmosphere is bright, cozy, and perfect to chill with friends, family, or even on your own. Their bubble teas and drinks are always fresh, flavorful, and customizable to your taste, and the toppings like boba or pudding make every drink extra fun. It’s a great place to treat yourself to a delicious drink any time!“

“I like this bubble tea store. Price is cheap than other bubble tea.Because it always has promotion. They sell drink, food, and macaroon.

My favorite drink is Carmel milk tea with coffee jelly or tiramisu milk tea with bubble. They also chicken nuggets or wing or egg waffles or BBQ sausage,my favorite food in this store takoyaki and Gyoza( Japanese fried dumplings is crispy, my favorite is sea food,it also selling vegetable or chicken flavor.
And then, their worker is nice and friendly. In addition, when you waiting for your drink. You can check some phone accessories, both store sharing this area. That is good“

“I absolutely love Gong Cha, it’s the best bubble tea place I’ve ever been to. I was obsessed with their brown‑sugar series. The boba is soft, the milk tea is rich, and the staff are super friendly. This is my go‑to spot for a little happiness in my day.“

“This place is great! The tea is amazing. The flavors are wonderful. The staff goes above and beyond. I couldn't leave my sleeping infant in the car to pick up my order, so Shirley was nice enough to come to my car with my order. This new mama really needed that small bit of kindness.“

“After trying all the pricy food at Japan Village, I start ordering the Egg and Ham burger as lunch here because it’s more affordable and the portion size is great. My work place is at Industry City. I used to get a lot Onigiri at Japan Village, but I found out the quality has been going down recently. This place is decent. I really hope they can open the online order for pick up soon, so I don’t have to wait there for 15 mins.“

“Visited the Lafayette, LA location today and had the strawberry supernova- AMAZING!“

“Finally, we found some amazing, fresh homemade taro! It was a tiny cafe, and I don’t recall being able to sit inside. The customer service was friendly, with everyone looking bright and cheery. There were a handful of customers which was a good sign too. Will definitely be back again!“

“I love this place! It is a tiny shop, so I usually get take-out (but they do have tables, and I have eaten inside, and it is nice). Something about the food feels comforting to me. I have been getting it about once a week for the last few months. With the colder weather, it is perfect for it. I like their beef dishes, and I look forward to ordering each week. It is a great little pick-me-up. I highly recommend!!“

“Good service and nice atmosphere ...“

“I’ve only been once but I’ll be back! Will update my review as I try more things.

On my first visit I tried an iced rose jasmine tea with boba and white jelly(?), regular ice and 25% sweetness. The drink was perfectly refreshing for a hot spring day.

For a small establishment there’s lots of seating and the AC works great. Paid about $8.30. Very fair price.“

“Service is great. Bubble tea tastes delightful & delicious. You can also choose your level of sweetness. The most important part is bubble is so chewy & fresh. They do have a lot of tea choices. I would order it again.“

“recently stumbled upon a hidden gem of a bubble tea shop on 8th Avenue in Brooklyn:
I tried a few different options, and honestly, you can't go wrong with any of them 👇
🍊 Orchid Green Tangerine Lemon
(Green Tangerine & Lemon Tea)
A truly refreshing contender!!
The zesty tang of the green tangerine combined with the lemon cuts
🍇 Orchid Grape Milk Tea
(Green Grape Iced Milk Tea)
The green grape flavor is incredibly fresh.
The milkiness isn't heavy or cloying; the whole drink goes down very smoothly.
🍍 Jasmine Pineapple Lemon Tea
(Pineapple Iced Lemon Tea)
It captures the essence of summer perfectly!!
The combination of pineapple and lemon is incredibly refreshing.
🥥 Pistachio Jasmine Coconut
(Pistachio, Jasmine & Coconut)
This cup is quite unique.
It features a blend of jasmine tea fragrance, coconut, and pistachio—
The layers of aroma are incredibly rich and complex.
🧇 Original Flavor Egg Waffle
(Original Egg Waffle)
Made fresh to order—crispy on the outside, soft on the inside.
It pairs absolutely perfectly with the lemon tea!“

“just opened recently and very friendly so 5 star. taste is good, however it tasted a bit watered down. i had the brown sugar bubble tea. typically the drink would be on the creamier side at the junction location. the bubbles were also too soft and not chewy like it should be. there is always room for improvement, good luck with your business.“

“That place was wonderful their food was exquisite“

“Yaya Tea is always a go-to spot! The rice balls with tempura shrimp are delicious crispy, flavorful, and perfectly satisfying. Their bubble teas are consistently good too. The customer service is always excellent, friendly, attentive, and welcoming. Highly recommend! 🍙❤️🧋“

“Great spot! I got a strawberry milk tea with Boba and loved it, the Boba was fresh and the milk tea was delicious! I will say that the milk tea was on the sweeter side and had more if an artificial strawberry taste, (which I personally like) but if you don't like that kind of taste maybe get something else, there is an option to get get less sweetness as well. I really liked it though! The server was really nice too! Also, random but the ice was really tasty for some reason. 🤷‍♀️😅“

“Nice cozy restaurant. Very decent lunch with affordable price, the server is very attentive, Food are great and unlike many restaurant, i don't feel thirsty after meal, i think MSG was not used. We will visit again when we are in the neighborhood.“

“Vegan chicken bowl is delicious 😋“

“Food: Delicious! Ordered the popcorn chicken and snow cheese french fries. They were both very good and flavorful.

The popcorn chicken was not as crispy as i would like but flavor wise 10/10

Service: Very friendly staff

Atmosphere: Not a place I would sit down to eat my lunch. Very tiny, and not the most comfortable. But other than that, i would be coming back for sure“

“The cafe is always clean. The interior is very cute and minimalistic.

It's one of my daughter's favorite places!
She loves everything from their menu, I'm more picky. But it's good
Especially their onion rings?? and popcorn chicken
And last our visit, they gave us a new cool lunch bag. It was so nice of them“

“Today was my second time ordering from this restaurant and I have to say I’m absolutely impressed! I ordered delivery and my food arrived hot and delicious. The empanadas are super, super good — I highly recommend them! The delivery service was also 10/10. I’ll definitely be ordering again!“

“A must-try milk tea from this restaurant when you go to Brook! ! It really doesn’t make any mistakes! ! I really like them all! ! Special fruit tea series, traffic light! Strawberry nectar! Yangzhi nectar! Durian nectar! Taozhiyaoyao! Succulent grapes! All are super delicious! !“

“Very clean establishment, well lit, and the quality of the tea is great. I got a hot jasmine and green tea along with the blue Galaxy. Teas were delectable, especially with 70% sugar on the jasmine. I also ordered the curry popcorn chicken, it was piping hot and crispy and yummy.

Wendy at the register was a perfect example of exceptional customer service from me ordering over the phone to making sure my order was prepared correctly and letting me know the best tips to enjoy my tea. Incredibly kind, warm, and attentive. Something you don't see in this neighborhood.“

“Best coffee I have ever had and their chocolate chip cookie is amazing!!!“

“Their grilled pork bahn mi (extra meat, extra mayo) is still the best banh mi I’ve had in the city after 5+ years here. Doesn’t hurt too that the staff is so kind and the prices are great! Really a takeout/delivery spot - there’s not a lot of seating. You won’t be disappointed!“

“The most creative, beautiful and delicious cakes EVER! You will not be disappointed - I promise! Since discovering JM, I will drive 2 1/2 hours to get a cake for special occasions..I’ve been doing this for 4 years and never disappointed Gorgeous cake designs and exotic fillings - truly appreciated by everyone. Whenever I bring 1 or even 3 cakes (each with a different theme) - the crowd is in awe and the recipients never want to cut it because the cakes are honestly that beautiful and everyone is in awe. Crystal is an absolute gem and sooooo helpful with every order. I simply love her (happy birthday again Crystal) HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“Sip N Play is a fun place to play. Our first time here today and we wanted to play games that we don't have at home and games we have not played in a long time.“

“I love the milk tea also juices and brown sugar milk tea ☕️“

“update 10/22 - Decided to visit again after the last terrible experience, this time everything was prompt and the staff handling my drink seemed careful and meticulous. The spanish latte tasted as good as I remembered.

2 stars - Came back here after a while and this place really has a way of souring my mood. Ordered my drink at 2:01 and by the time they finally made my drink it was 2:40. How is this acceptable? I would have understood if there were a long list of orders ahead of me. But my order being 20, even 26,25,28 were made ahead of mine. I asked about my order and was told a few more minutes. A few minutes later I ask again and the employee finally sees an empty cup and they finally start making my order. Only gave more than one star because the spanish latte with the devocion espresso is good which is why I even come back here but I guess Ill just stick to 60th st even though its a longer walk.“
