50 Best Bubble Tea near Oceanside

“My husband and I love Hawaii and love poke. Obviously, poke on the mainland will never be the same as it is in Hawaii. That said, we had very delicious and beautiful poke bowls at Ocean Poke in Oceanside NY today. The short version is give it a try, you won’t be disappointed and will probably be impressed. They also have Ramen and really good bubble tea. Oh, the Aloha juices, the same ones served on Hawaiian Airlines flights and available in Hawaii, were a nice touch.
Now, let me backup to share the very long version. I usually send my husband into food places to scope them out before I even go into them. He will only eat raw fish in places that look clean and visually appealing. He gave Ocean Poke the once over and gave it the okay for us to eat there. (He even asked a diner what he thought of the place. Turns out the diner was a regular and he highly recommended the food.) When we made our way to the counter, we were greeted by a very pleasant, young man named Jeremy. He was extremely helpful and smiled through all of my questions. (I am very inquisitive and fussy.) He even spoke to his manager, Willie, so I could sample the spicy tuna. Willie was as nice and helpful as Jeremy. What a great team, they really have the customer service part down pat. Willie was approachable, engaging and helpful, but was not intrusive.
Now for the food. My husband and I both had create your own poke bowls. I had the regular size for $14.50. It allows for the choice of up to two bases, (I selected white rice and mixed greens), two proteins, (I selected raw ahi and crab sticks), an extensive variety of toppings at no additional cost (I loaded up to try them, next time I’ll be more selective and limit my selections), a few upcharge toppings (I went for the avocado for $1.00), and several sauce options.
My husband had the large bowl for $16.50. It allows for three protein selections (he went with raw ahi, raw salmon and spicy tuna).
I should have taken photos, the bowls were big and beautiful. Presentation is important to me. I cannot eat food that looks like slop. The items in the bowls were nicely arranged and the bowls looked very appealing and appetizing. Everything was fresh. The avocado was beautifully cut and fanned. The other items were uniformly cut and made for perfect spoonfuls. (I don’t like food that is difficult to eat.) The poke shoyu sauce was traditional and tasty as it should be. The ahi was fresh, Willie said they cut their fish fresh every day. All of the toppings were fresh and flavorful. The bowls were great.
Even though I am very grown, ha, I enjoy bubble tea, but I don’t like it overly sweet. Willie said they can adjust the sweetness in 25% increments. My milk tea at 25% sweet was delish.
Oh, the pork gyoza were tasty and nicely pan fried and had good, thin wrappers.
We enjoyed our food and drinks. I think you will, too. Like I said earlier, try it you won’t be disappointed.“

“Truly the best spot in Long Island for bubble tea. Superior drinks and customer service. Don't sleep on the coffee either!“

“The boba is insanely delicious and way more affordable than other boba shops I’ve been to, the workers are so kind and welcoming and they even gave me some of the extra slushy from the boba I ordered which was insanely kind because it was basically a free boba ! This was our second time there and again we’re so satisfied ! We will definitely recommend this store to our friends because they love boba too and we are 100% going to start buying our boba from here from now on .“

“I am originally from a place that does not have a gongcha and my first experience was overseas. Needless to say, I was so excited to see one literally 2 blocks away from me.

I love gongcha! The bubble waffle is super crispy and fluffy. I got a crème brûlée brown sugar milk tea today and didn’t get any pearls… which I thought were included per the app. Might be wrong though. I should’ve checked my online order before leaving but no problem, my love for gongcha is still the same.“

“Picture this: a steamy bowl of savory ramen in one hand and a sweet brown sugar boba from Tbaar in the other. Absolute harmony. The boba was fresh, chewy perfection, and the brown sugar milk tea? Like a warm hug for my taste buds. Sweet meets savory, and they lived happily ever after—on my plate.“

“I love the poke bowls and boba here. Nice and clean atmosphere with lovely paintings as well. The staff were very helpful and fast. Has a distinct smell of a traditional east asian restaurant but if you are asian or have been to asia before it should not be a problem. very underrated boba tea place it definitely competes with teavour“

Highly recommended. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ again we got delivery from a half hour drive and was spot on ! Try try try. You won’t be disappointed. ✌🏼“

“Baby shower venue

The venue was absolutely ideal for my baby shower celebration. I was feeling quite overwhelmed and anxious about having to move my outdoor party at the last minute. Fortunately, we discovered this location, which turned out to be perfect and incredibly convenient. Sharon was incredibly kind and took the time to explain all the details, assisting us with everything on such short notice and at a great price! If you're looking for a charming and aesthetically pleasing venue, I highly recommend booking this place—it was very affordable!“

“This place is such a hidden gem inside a charming pharmacy! The owner is so sweet, and it was my first time trying Kashmiri milk tea, which was absolutely delightful. I couldn't resist writing a review about it! Additionally, the boba has the perfect texture. I'll definitely be coming back soon!“

“First time here and won’t be the last.
Ordered the cookies n cream milk tea, sister ordered the Oreo Brown Sugar Milk Tea.
I loved my drink, but the other drink felt a little more milk than the Oreo flavor but still very good !!
Drinks came out fast ! Will be back to try the Ube drink !“

“pre order to avoid the wait! always a treat visiting this location. teas made fresh as ordered and always tasty!!!“

“INCREDIBLE! Finally, a legitimate bubble tea shop has arrived in Long Island. This little shop just opened and is coming in HOT! Everything from the teas to the toppings, it's all made right on the spot and comes out with the most authentic bubble tea I've tasted since childhood. They even make handmade dumplings and skewers right there. An amazing place that serves both delicious tea and authentic snacks is hard enough to find in FLUSHING, but just 2 months ago, arrives Tea Break to absolutely destroy every other establishment around. A small operation, but delivers incredible flavors and service.“

“I love this place. I wish I could frequent it more often but i moved out of that part of the island.“

“Great place for Boba Tea. My kids like the Pina Colada slush with mango boba, the Oreo Wow and the Oreo Slush. My husband got the passion fruit slush (it was delicious). I got the passion fruit green tea with mango boba. I highly recommend! Great customer service.“

“Wanted brown sugar boba and this place this not disappoint. Ordered a large and did not expect a small bucket for a drink 🤣. But it’s fine now I know for the next time.

Also got the Nutella egg waffles and those are delish. Lil man really enjoyed them.“

“Great tea spot in Little Neck. All the classic things you love about tea joints - the bubbles, the jelly, the tea options and the variety of lattes or fruity drinks if you don't want tea. Enjoyed my Lychee Oolong very much and I was able to adjust the ice and sweetness levels. Awesome place to chill as well. Open till 9pm daily.“

“Love the Bubble Teas here! I am going to try the Ramen next!!“

“I had the Oolong Milk Tea at Drunk Tea, and it was absolutely delightful! The tea was perfectly brewed, and the creamy texture of the milk complemented it perfectly. The ambiance of the place is cozy and welcoming, making it a great spot to relax and enjoy a delicious drink. I highly recommend Drunk Tea for tea enthusiasts looking for a top-notch experience!“

“love this place so much! have been going here for a few years and every time I go everything is so good :)“

“The best chai in New York.“

“I like this place, good place to order hot soup ramen with chicken when you are feeling something brothy warm. My bf thinks it is too expensive for its quality of the food, however I don't think so. He had 2 bad dishes here before maybe that's why and the place is usually empty whenever I go pick up or dine in. The cashier is always nice :)“

“I couldn’t resist stopping by Gong Cha when I heard about their Snowman bottles—and wow, they’re even cuter in person! Just look at that tiny pom-pom scarf and the classic top hat—it’s pure holiday magic.
I ordered the earl grey milk tea, and sipping it from this adorable bottle 10/10. The tea was delicious and the pearls had that ideal chewy texture!! The whole experience was cozy!☃️❄️
These Snowman bottles are limited edition, so don’t wait—I’m already planning to grab another one!“

“Great quick service. Get the passion fruit bubble tea.“

“I love their bubble tea! Have ordered multiple times at the store and online.Always customized to perfection and great taste.I highly recommend their bubble waffles! Delicious and filling. Courteous staff and neat tables( although all are wobbly at this location).You have a loyal customer in me!“

“Best Marathon Station EVER!!!“

“The ramen is a little above average. Their service was a little slow due to lack of wait staff. Will i go back? maybe. They have small Chinese dim sum menu, had their pan fried buns it was just ok. Likely won’t get it again.

Update: 9/23 Came back recently, their service is Alot better now, great combo deal.“

“Mom and Sally are so nice. They have the best bubble tea that I’ve ever had. The melon is fantastic.“

“The drinks were what was expected. Barista did a good job.
The cashier could be friendlier, especially when asking for additional supplies.
The napkins holder had no napkins.
The atmosphere is roomy for takeout, they closed off 2-3 tables in the back and added claw machines.“

“OMG Tasty House serves some of the best food I've ever tried, I've never had Vietnamese before, I'm such a fan now. The seating area is small and quaint, but the atmosphere is welcoming. Manna our hostess was friendly and helpful. She answered every question and explained the menu items and specials. I had Pho Special and my wife the Curry Chicken, we also tried the scallion pancakes and delicious mango milk tea. Everything was delicious! We'll definitely be returning soon. Thank you so much!!“

“Fun friendly staff! They have great treats, including ones from my childhood!“

“I stopped by Kung Fu Tea on the way home. It looks very nice inside with lots of color designs on the wall. Easily the best looking Kung Fu Tea I've been to so far. Very clean and spacious. They also sell TKK Fried Chicken here, maybe a colab location. The staff were very friendly and fast. We ordered the Oreo Wow Milk and the Mango Milk tea. They were both delicious!!“

“Bubble Tea is to die for! The staff is welcoming, talkative, and kind. And the hours of operation work perfectly in our local high school educational hours and after-school extracurricular activities. 100000/10“

“Defintely one of my favorite drinks from Kungfu tea! The classic KF Milk Tea with Pudding and Herbel Jelly is delicious. It has rich black tea and you can actually taste the freshly pudding and jelly; the combination of pudding and Herbel jelly was perfect! Customer service was good as always and the staff there always willing to explain the drink. Kong Fu Tea never disappoints!!!“

“The place is connected to ranch 99. Staff was helpful in suggesting some drinks. We got the tora Milk tea, boba tea, lemon Green Tea and passion fruit. Everything was refreshing and yummy. Price is average.“

“I absolutely love this place! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and amazing. The workers are so kind and welcoming—it really feels like a special little spot. Highly recommend to anyone who loves great Vietnamese food and amazing service!“

“Excellent food and service.“

“I have been coming to this restaurant since I was a baby, so I might be a little biased. But this restaurant is the BEST. Their bourbon chicken never disappoints. It’s sweet, tangy, and delicious. Coupled with their sides of rice and beans, it is amazing.

Also, the food is very cheap. One meal can cost only 11 dollars, and for the amount of food that comes with it, it’s a great deal.

In addition, the lady who runs this restaurant is extremely nice. She recognizes me and my family every time we go, even saying my name.

I love this woman. I love this restaurant. I really don’t understand the negative reviews, the restaurant is great.“

“Dango in Little Neck is a solid spot for bubble tea with plenty of good options. I tried the chicken teriyaki bowl, which was tasty and came with a generous portion. Great for a quick lunch or afternoon tea break. Friendly service and a clean, modern vibe round out the experience.“

“Delicious and fresh food. Entire family enjoyed!“

“Their food is okay, but a few hours before close they had already run out of options. Would have been better if they had all the flavors they typically offer and you can tell that some of the ones they had left had been sitting there for a while. When they come out fresh, they taste great and the flavors they have like Oreo, Uber, Cappuccino, Strawberry, and Matcha are typically good.“

“We are always satisfied with our experience at the Bowl!! The food is so good, I really like the options, and they are always so kind and communicative. We usually order online for pickup, and they will call right away if they have any questions, so our order is always right. Also, the bubble tea is vegan and they use dairy-free creamer, which tastes great and has previously been hard for me to find at other places. We highly recommend it!“
