Coco Fresh Tea & Juice - Lava Pearl Latte - Bubble Tea Near Me - New York, New York

I've had a few bad experiences at Coco and wasn't really a fan, but I gave this place a try when I was in the Central Park area! There weren't many options to choose from in that area. They only allowed 1 customer inside the small area at a time so I had to wait a few minutes outside- no biggie. We ordered a hot taro milk tea and a passion fruit slush with bubbles, of course. I recommend cutting back on your sugar level as we ordered 50% for the slush and 70% for the taro and it was still pretty sweet. They were both pretty good! The passion fruit tasted pretty standard. I liked the taro milk tea although it did leave a fake aftertaste in my mouth. The bubbles were great- nice and chewy! read more

Coco Fresh Tea & Juice - Passion fruit slush and taro milk tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - New York, New York

Small store with nowhere to sit but you order on the kiosk and the drinks come pretty quick. I got the lava pearl matcha latte and it was super sweet despite me getting 70% sugar so if you don't like sweet things make sure to really lower the sugar amount. The drink itself was still very delicious but wasn't very grassy like you expect most matcha to be. I enjoyed it though and would come back. Also I think the drinks already come with pearls so don't add any tapioca like I did if you just want the regular amount. I ended up accidentally getting extra tapioca but the tapioca itself is good and chewy so I didn't mind. read more

Coco Fresh Tea & Juice - Lava Pearl Matcha Latte - Bubble Tea Near Me - New York, New York

Great option for boba in uws. Love places that allow you to adjust ice and sugar levels. Have not visited physical location but delivery has always been quick and on point. They have a good variety of flavors so you're likely to find whatever will quench your thirst. read more

This is probably my favorite boba place and when it's warm out, I can't stop myself from coming by. One of my friends lived in Taiwan and this is a place that's super popular there so it's very authentic. read more

Coco Fresh Tea & Juice - a hand holding a cup of iced coffee - Bubble Tea Near Me - New York, New York

I went to Coco for the first time in a while before going to Shakespeare in the Park and, I must say, they seem to have improved a lot from what I remembered. As always, Coco is small, just enough room to order your bubble tea and leave. But it is clean and modern looking and looks quite nice. I ordered their new special, Lava Pearl bubble tea, which seems inspired by the recent trend of brown sugar bubble tea. Unlike their usual boba bubbles, the boba for this tea are marinating in molten brown sugar. The molten sugar drips down the side of the cup giving a very pretty look to the drink. And the taste is super good. I've had brown sugar bubble tea before, most bubble tea places have that. But they don't use molten sugar and it is more of a flavoring. This molten brown sugar taste was quite good and I really enjoyed it. The bubbles were a good texture, too. They could have been slightly softer, but not a big deal. I look forward to coming back to this Coco. It is a good location near the 72nd St subway stations and the bubble tea is quite good. read more

See all

I was a bit surprised to find a Coco location out here on Upper West Side but it goes to show how bubble tea has really gotten popular. I placed a Seamless pick up order but honestly I think might have been better if I just ordered from the store as they didn't really follow my less sugar requests. Its bit understandable since they were a bit busy at a time to miss the details but it would be nice since almost all bubble tea places allow customization on the ice and sugar levels. They currently are limiting about 2 customers inside the small store at a time and I had a wait a little bit but my order was ready when I walked inside. Its a great location though since only about a block away from the 72nd street stop and close to my dentist. I would consider giving them another chance but probably ordering in person this time just to be sure they got the order correct. read more

Coco Fresh Tea & Juice - Front door was little hard to see since there are scaffolds above - Bubble Tea Near Me - New York, New York

Delicious! The milk tea was made perfectly. Selected: 70% sweetness, the option of lactaid milk, and foam-- absolute perfection. Boba was a good consistency-- not overly cooked, the perfect amount of chew and sweetness. Will return!! read more

So on 118 west 72nd street the coco bubble tea closed down. My review at that location was 2 star due to the rude employee that made my drinks. I clearly notified him what I need in that drinks but ignored my order and just did it on his way. 124 west 72nd street the coco bubble tea opened up so I decided to give them a try today The interior it's similar to other location, here they have table stand but no chair. When I walked in I dont think she greeted but greeted afterward when I handed her the paper of the drinks I needed. On the Google contributions they did had rainbow jelly and sago when I saw their pictures for this location but the girl said sorry we don't have it. Their prices is cheaper compared to other bubble tea places around 72nd street. I brought total 5 drinks and came out as $33 They either have medium or large size drink. No small!! Their sugar level are 0% 30% and etc. My drink was grapefruit bubble tea with lychee jelly and egg pudding with 30% sugar. It was too sour, so I didn't like my drink. Overall it wasn't the fantastic experience but will come by again to try their new drinks. read more

Coco Fresh Tea & Juice - Outside the - Bubble Tea Near Me - New York, New York

Yay! Coco has an adorable storefront and mascot, both of which really pulled me in. I opted for the Thai tea boba with half sweetness. It was tasty and the boba was perfectly chewy. I sort of wish I got it with full sweetness, but really, even with 50% it was a satisfying and refreshing drink. The person working was really friendly and though the shop is small, they did a great job of making sure only 1-2 folks were in the store at a time (writing this during COVID). read more

Coco Fresh Tea & Juice - Thai tea, half sweet and half gone in my tummy! - Bubble Tea Near Me - New York, New York

The taste of the salt and pepper chicken is authentic! The bubble tea drinks are also fantastic! They even close at 10 PM, allowing my wife and me to enjoy such authentic Taiwanese cuisine after work when we're hungry! Highly recommended! read more

This is essentially just a store-front with a counter indoors, there's no room for seating, but it's great to grab-and-go and is only a few blocks from Central Park. A large milk bubble tea is $5.05 (comes out to exactly $5.50 with tax) which is pricey but fairly standard for NYC bubble tea chains. The counter and prep area was clean and drinks came out quickly. read more

My favorite back when I was in college in China. Still have favorite right now after trying many bubble tea places in NYC. Basically I can never go wrong with any item on the menu. read more

Coco Fresh Tea & Juice - Taro Milk Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - New York, New York

This is a great place for bubble tea! They are very accommodating with adjusting the amount of sugar, ice, etc. in your drink, and add the right ratio of tapioca topping and drink so that you finish both at around the same time. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. read more

The milk tea I got had egg pudding and boba pearls. It was extremely milky and the milk tea and egg pudding were flavorless and simultaneously sugary enough to make me feel nauseous. Please spend that $7+ at another boba place. read more

Excellent drinks and friendly staff! I like how you can alternate the ice and sugar levels of the drinks. Would recommend to anyone.

Wow!! I was pleasantly surprised by this place. I've never been to a Coco bubble tea location before and now I'm wondering why I've never been. I ordered the Three Guys which is milk tea with tapioca, grass jelly, and pudding. The large was only slightly more than $5. The price point is much lower than other bubble tea places and you get more bang for your buck! Staff members were extremely friendly. Currently 2 person limit inside the store at a time. read more

Love this place so much! I'm a milk tea lover and I recently tried the hoji milk tea and it was so good!

There's not many places to get bubble tea in the UWS so I'm grateful this place exists. While pregnant, it also became my go-to place to get a lactose free and caffeine free version of a brown sugar boba, known as a Lava Pearl Milk Tea on their menu. 100% sugar level is less sweet than a Starbucks concoction and they let you adjust the ice, add more boba and customize with a few other fun things like red adzuki beans. I wish they offered oat milk or almond milk but beggars can't be choosers. read more

If I would give this place no star I will!!! We were to this store around 8pm and I know they close at 10pm. The lady with blond hair with HORRIBLE attitude. She show me her back after we call her 3 time. Me and my friend was shock by her and FINALLY she turned the back with no smile, no hello and no word? If you don't like your job, please quit. read more

The staff at this location are such a delight to be around! I love stopping in to say hi to them and I always ask for their recommendations. They are quite knowledgable and make me want to keep coming back. One thing I will say, is I am a MASSIVE fan of the Lava Pearls. I was very sad when they were gone. It would be really nice to have other bubble options besides the normal tapioca balls. I would pay extra every time to be able to have the lava pearls on a consistent basis and I would come much more often than I do currently. They were the best part of the menu. I will continue to cross my fingers! Otherwise, wonderful location and looking forward to going back! read more

Wonderful staff, great flavors, consistently good. I really enjoyed that I could customize my drink based on sugar level, amount of ice, etc. Such a wide variety and such a wonderful company. read more

Place is terrible they give you really small straws so when you drink the bubble tea the bubbles don't go up the straw. Otherwise I'm sure the place is great but the whole purpose is to drink it out of the straw not have to pull the straw and suck out the bubbles are getting stuck at the bottom . the solution is a wider straw so what if it cost a little bit more money better than getting dirty read more

Every time I go here, I always order the grapefruit green tea with aloe. In my personal experience, this place makes it the best out of all the places that I've been to. The aloe and grapefruit they use tastes very fresh. read more

I regard myself as a bubble tea aficionado. I have been across the country and globe tasting bubble teas far and wide. Coco's is by far the best bubble tea place that I have ever been to. Their myriad of flavors coupled with an expansive menu ordain this fine tea establishment as supreme over all others. Upon first glance, finishing the generous helpings of boba seems like an unsurmountable feat, however, once you taste the succulent boba, you know that you are exactly where you belong. This is far better than any other bubble tea place, for those are simply futile attempts to possess the true gift that Coco's provides for its loyal customers. Take Tea Magic, for example, the closest thing to 'magic' that they possess is having a location now only two blocks away from Coco's. At least their employees can know what it is like to have TRUE bubble tea when they make their journey back to the Mecca of bubble tea itself: Coco's. I recommend that everyone go to Coco's, it will change your life for the better. read more

I love this damn place. Yea is so good and I'm a regular! Please please check out if your in the area!

I've been going to the old location on 72nd street for years and the new location is a nice upgrade. After waiting for months for it to open up, I finally went in and got a bubble tea, exactly the same as how I remembered it. Coco is an excellent chain, they are definitely top 3 on my favorite bubble teas (I've tried way too many places ). They also literally have thousands of locations outside of the US so they aren't some random place. I've lived on the UWS my whole life and this is definitely the best. The boba is chewy and sweet( unsweetened boba is gross) and it's pretty much fresh all the time. The location is also convenient, right next to the subway. If you are a bubble tea pro (whatever that means) or if you've never tried it before, this is the place for you. (Pro tip: if you don't like your bubble tea so sweet, ask for less sugar. I prefer 70% or 50%) read more

I've had a couple times bubble tea before in California, but I didn't like it, until I came to New York got the Coco. It literally changed my mind. The staffs were so friendly and enthusiastic. I asked for recommendations, the "Supreme" guy strongly recommended the BERRY LOVERS. WOWOW! I'm in love with it! It's just perfect and literally can chew these berries. And it doesn't taste like has any additives, highly recommended it. Overall it was a GREAT experience in NY. I'll definitely come back again. read more

I'm so glad they haven't closed! Nearly had a heart attack when I went for my weekly (ok, sometimes a lot more than that) bubble tea fix and they were gone. Turns out they just moved to a bigger more modern space. The neighborhood is saved! read more

$6.25 for a small hoji cha bubble tea? I saw the "new" sign and decided to try it. I'm happy to pay for quality, but the tea taste was weak, it was not fragrant and the boba was nothing special. I can't believe I overpaid for a poor quality product. read more

Quick, tasty, and perfect for a summer day. I walked up from around Columbus Circle to pick up bubble tea from here. No regrets, I just want to get more! read more

Coco for the gogo! You haven't lived until you've tried Coco! No kid has ever not loved Coco!
