17 Best Bubble Tea in Long Island City

“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.“

“Soothr LIC delivered an exceptional dining experience for our 8th wedding anniversary. The vibrant atmosphere strikes the perfect balance between high-energy and intimate, making it a stellar spot to mark a special occasion.
Our server, Jelly, was incredible from start to finish—attentive, warm, and seamless with her recommendations, ensuring the evening felt like a true celebration.
The Meal
* Mop Dang Puff: A fantastic start to the meal. The pastry was impossibly flaky, packed with rich, deeply seasoned filling that set a high bar for the rest of the night.
* Had Yai Chicken: Perfectly executed. The fried chicken achieved that crisp outer crunch while remaining tender and juicy inside, highlighted by fried shallots and authentic southern Thai spices.
* Crab Fried Rice: Generous portions of sweet lump crab meat folded into fragrant, perfectly separated rice. It had that distinct wok hei (breath of the wok) flavor that elevates simple fried rice into a standout dish.
* Panang Duck Lychee: The highlight of the night. The rich, creamy Panang curry sauce had just the right amount of heat, beautifully offset by the juicy sweetness of the lychee. The duck was rich and tender with crispy skin, binding all the sweet and savory flavors together.
Soothr LIC brought the heat, flavor, and top-notch hospitality for our milestone night. We couldn't have picked a better place to celebrate eight years!“

“yeah sure the boba is fine and fun but at this specific location it’s always the KINDEST STAFF IN THE WORLD i adore them. i don’t come here often but they remember my order and they are so sweet to my friends and I when we come here nobody say antsy thing mean about them they are my kindness support staff!!!“

“Tried this place for the first time today and we loved it! The filter coffee was great and we had the minis as well, definitely coming here again! Maisha and Ronnie were extremely helpful with the orders as well with giving us suggestions! Highly recommend.“

“Are you going to reopen in LIC“

“So cute, so yummy! An instant hit with our family and we're already planning on coming back, plus they have many milk teas without caffeine and awesome fruit combinations like strawberry and avocado to try.
The shop staff were also SO kind and gave my kiddo mini squishies! ♥ Thank you!“

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

“A MUST TRY!!!! I enjoyed an Espresso real fruit smoothie (Espresso shot, peanut butter, milk, banana, protien poweder)and I must say it was absolutely perfectly blended. Wasn't too heavy and hit all the right spots. Try then out if you pass by cute spot“

“Super yummy! Mangos are fresh. Definitely recommend“

“This is a great restaurant. The owner and staff are very kind and serve amazing dishes. I could definitely taste my beef noodle soup was made with fresh ingredient and homemade noodles. Everything was perfectly spiced. Will definitely come here more often.“

“Me and my friend went to this spot today and we loved it. The flavor was delicious, we are going back soon, it’s really yummy. I’ll give this place a 10. It’s on my favorite list. I’ll recommend.“

“Store layout is great! Would be a really good hangout place if no covid to worry about. Their "cold signature milk tea" is the HK style tea and different than the other bubble tea you had. Highly recommend the "curry fish ball" and their egg waffle (we had the classic style). Will definitely visit again!“

“EDIT#2: I finally got to try the new Papaya Mango Coconut slush and it was really good with alot of papaya flavor and pieces of the papaya fruit. That drink is a 5 stars one. As usual, the Peach Four Season Fusion is also great.

EDIT: The store reached out and apologized fairly quickly and rectify their mistake. This was appreciated so thank you. When the fusion fruit teas are made properly it is definitely 5 stars. The peach and mango teas are really good. I tried the drink they gave me by accident and some of the bobas in the drink were a bit too hard for me. Felt like the center wasn’t thoroughly cooked through. I like the soft chewy type more.

This Teazzi is horrible. Last time I ordered from here my drinks were diluted. It was towards closing time so maybe they were running out of tea but they should have mentioned something when I picked up or make something else. This time the drinks were not as diluted but they gave me a wrong drink and I didnt noticed until I got home. I got someone else’s milk tea and I am missing the papaya drink which is way more expensive than what I was given. DOUBLE CHECK your order!“

“I had a great experience at this place! The staff were so friendly and the service was amazing everyone was kind, and made sure everything was perfect. The food was delicious and very presentable. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and a comfy place to relax.“

“I want to thank the nice man working here tonight, he made my passion fruit tea with black tea even though the menu only showed green tea option! And it was delicious. Can’t wait to come back and try other yummy options on the menu“

“HeyTea in Long Island City brings the brand's signature drink lineup to the area, and for fans of the menu it is a welcome addition.

The drinks themselves are the main draw and largely deliver. The Coconut Mango Boom is the standout order and comes loaded with a generous chunk of actual mango that makes the whole thing feel more substantial than your average fruit tea. The Triple Matcha is another strong option for anyone looking for a matcha drink. Toppings are consistently chewy and the flavor balance across most of the lineup leans on the lighter, less sweet side, which works well.

The atmosphere is cozy and the space has a comfortable feel to it that makes it easy to settle in for a bit. Staff are generally efficient and straightforward, which suits the format well.

Where things get complicated is the wait. This location runs long on order times fairly regularly, and during busier stretches or when delivery orders are stacking up, a single drink can take thirty to forty minutes.

If you are already a HeyTea regular the Long Island City location is a convenient option for the area, and the menu quality holds up to what the brand does elsewhere. Just plan accordingly on timing and you will leave happy.“

“I eat at this spot often and always have a good experience. I order ahead and arrive about when it is expected to be down and only had to wait an extra minute one time. Once had to put in a large group order and they completed everything on time and packaged everything together very well. I love the variety of vegetarian options and always add cilantro to everything. I really like the mushroom banh mi sandwich.“
