50 Best Bubble Tea near Elmhurst

“I’m a fan of this corner cafe. It’s right in the heart of Little Thailand and they have sweet and savory dishes to try. I had Thai hotpot for the first time here and it was much different than the hotpot I’m used to eating, but I liked it. It was much more intense in flavor with more notes of acidity. They also have an amazing duck noodle soup and the boat noodles that I’d recommend. The dessert option is great too, I didn’t know what to expect from the Rooty Tooty but it was perfectly sweet. The staff here were super nice as well, we definitely felt welcomed here!“

“I have gone in plenty of times with friends and family, the manager always remembers us and welcomes us with open arms, she has had very special details with my little cousins and they always look forward to go to CoCo just to talk to the manager, this is always a plus when it comes to customer service, thank you Vanesa!“

“😍great tea, fresh, quick and service is great!“

“�First time tried Spicy fried squid ball. So in love with it. Bubble tea... All time favorite..“

“Mmm... They take card! �� I really enjoy the setting. Great for after work cool down.“

“Red mango has great fro yo, just like 16 handles but healthier. I really like their flavors, and they also have all the good toppings. The last thing I like about red mango is the inside if the place: the decor was nice, and they had comfy seats. (Customer service was also good)“

“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!“

“The quality of ingredients is top-notch, and the staff is always friendly and accommodating.The cozy atmosphere and attentive service make it a favorite spot for catching up with friends or enjoying a relaxing drink on my own.Highly recommend. Nice and friendly service!“

“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“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Love Love Love her work!!! Received many compliments for my daughter’s wedding. Worth every cent❤️“

“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!)“

“Came here on a cold night after my friends wanted to play board games. My friend’s house was super far away but this place was great!

There were lots of selections and we decided to play Catan and exploding kittens. I have not tried a drink but I would next time. Workers were really nice too :)“

“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“

“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.“

“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!??“

“First time came here feeling thirsty the drink I ordered was 30% sugar did not taste sweet that’s how I wanted pretty good service and the donut feel fresh and delicious very good quality i recommend for anyone to have a treat after school. The food here is good and fresh place and music feel welcome definitely coming back. There a lot of options of food as well.“

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

“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“

“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!!!! :)“

“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!!“

“Excellent boba place where one can see the making of the fresh and warm boba 🤩 excellent boba milk drinks plus more. If one wants to go super fancy, add a little gold foil toppings🤣. Overall, very nice drinks and also love the ship at Hudson Yards in Manhattan👍. Excellent boba milk is not too far away🥰“

“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. 😍“

“The BEST bubble tea!!! Love love love!!! ❤️❤️❤️“

“Lovely little spot. Went with a group of coworkers and had a great experience. They gave us some beef jerky because of the "wait" (there were a lot of us, service wasn't actually slow, that's just the reason he gave!) and because a coworker was interested in trying it earlier on. Super friendly, will go back the next time I'm in NYC.“

“Taiwanese style bubble tea - not too sweet, and the tea has an interesting flavor that is a bit earthy and rich, similar to another tea I've had in the past, but can't quite place. Bubbles are firm and not too sweet, too, which was nice. Ordering was through the kiosk.“

“Fresh and homemade Chinese food. An amazing cheff, cooking with passion and love. Highly recommended 💯“

“I came here because of their amazing 4.9 rating on Google Maps, however, I was not amazed by their food. I got curry puffs to start my dinner. The puffs were nice and flavorful. The outside was light and flaky, and the insides were well seasoned with nice texture. The sauce came with was too sweet to my liking. Personally I prefer eating it as it is. I pad see ew with shrimp and added beef($5). The flavor was nice and the shrimp was fresh and clean. However, the beef wasn’t so good especially when I paid $5 extra for them. It was too dry and chewy.
Overall, it’s a standard Thai restaurant. The food was nice but nothing special about it.“
