About HEYTEA (Long Island City)

HEYTEA in Long Island City is a favorite bubble tea spot for many, known for delicious drinks like the Triple Matcha and Mango Grapefruit. The drinks are absolutely delicious, amazing, and totally worth the wait, making it a place worth coming back to. However, the store is almost always busy, and getting your order usually takes about 20 minutes.

A significant issue at this location involves order updates. There are consistently problems with the HEYTEA app and the TVs in the restaurant, which are out-of-sync with what orders are actually ready. The app does not accurately update the wait time, sometimes showing a wait that is much longer than reality. This causes confusion, with crowds blocking the counter and people waiting longer than needed. Even the workers can be confused about order status. While using the app to order ahead is recommended, this location also has limitations, such as not being able to add brown sugar boba online for some drinks. Parking can also be a little tricky.
