    Dino Boba is such a chill, cozy, and cute spot right in downtown Cranford. If you're looking for a quiet place to study or just hang out with friends without dealing with big crowds, this is definitely the place. I went on a Tuesday night, and it was pretty calm. The couches are super comfortable, and the staff was really nice and patient with me. I originally wanted a hot tea, but the strawberry lemon green tea only comes iced. I do wish they offered some of their fruity drinks hot, but the cold version was still really refreshing!

    Today they introduced their strawberry matcha so it was buy one get one free. The service was great, the cashier explained the menu to me and ingredients. She made the drinks so quickly and they tasted so good. Their strawberry puree is very good and they put a good amount. The ambiance was very casual, someone even brought their dog in. They even had board games for people to play.

    Dino Boba is a cute spot with clean, modern aesthetic. The staff were friendly, which always makes a difference. I tried the Thai and Taro bubble teas and it was okay. Not bad by any means, just nothing memorable. The flavors were standard, and while it satisfied my craving, it didn't exactly make me want to run back for another drink. I do think that this is a lovely place to sit and relax or meet up with friends. So, if you're looking for atmosphere, it delivers. But, if you're looking for a next level tea experience, it might not be your go to.

    I came here half an hour before they closed at 9pm. I've been eyeing to come here after the old $15 barbershop went down the road. Ordered a large Taro bubble tea with less sugar with boba. I took a sip when I got home and I really liked it the boba was still warm and chewy. Usually, the boba would be stale and dense when I get bubble before closing at another Bubble tea spot. The sugar level was not too sweet too. The staff was really nice. I saw that there was plenty of seating inside. I also, saw kiosk if you're an introvert.

    Found this place on TikTok and my best friend and I decided to check it out. It's a cute cozy place perfect for kids and adults. They have board games that you can use while you are sitting and having your boba. We tried their croffle with whipped cream, banana and Nutella and it did not disappoint. You can tell it was freshly made. The service was quick, but we did not feel rushed. We felt like we could stay there all day.

    I am hooked on their Ube Latte (with oatmilk). It's so pretty with its inherent colors and the coffee has a good kick to it. I want to try other flavors, like the mocha tiramisu, but I love the Ube Latte so much, I just keep going back to it when the craving hits. It's not overly sweet and they don't over ice it either. I'm a fan and will keep going back. Staff is always friendly.

    Super cute boba place. The drinks are great and the little Dino eggs are the cutest desserts. The staff is super nice as well. 10/10 recommend!

    The boba here is really delicous! The strawberry milk is so good. The texture is very soft, the tapioca is really tasty as well.

    My friends and I usually come here every 2 months to eat. However, within the recent few visits,…read morethe restaurant has changed a bit. BBQ Steak rice in stone pot: The rice is cooked to perfection to make it taste like the rice in the stone pot. The broccoli has a crunch to it and is not flavored. The egg is cooked and tastes a bit like a tea egg. The bbq steak was flavored and delicious. Shacha Beef Hot Pot: This tastes good and is filling without any rice to go with it. However, this dish is a little pricey and would be better if it was a little cheaper. Popcorn Chicken: This needs some work as it is not that crunchy and lacks flavor. Takoyaki: The takoyaki lacks flavor that it should have. There is not enough squid inside and is mostly hollow. Spicy & sour shredded potatoes: This is delicious and has a hint of spice. It is a flavorful appetizer. Sichuan Spicy hot pot: This is delicious, but I wish they would add some noodles to this dish. Mango Green Tea with chia seeds: The mango green tea tastes fantastic without the hard chia seeds. I do not know why the chia seeds are super hard, so I always order it without it. Overall: This is a good restaurant to get something that feels like hotpot and some appetizers. The food here is delicious but some items could be made to taste better.

    Big group dinner with friends. Definitely love all the food here…read more Stinky tofu pot is mild flavor so don't expect it like Taiwan style. But as a hotpot, it's good.

    Following a delightful lunch nearby neighboring business of Lao Wu Authentic Shanghai Dumpling, I…read moresummon bubble tea. This Gong Cha location in Edison, NJ is gargantuan with abundant tables and chairs! It is a clean, well light relaxing atmosphere. I can imagine the table hibernation occupied by patrons lingering for hours as I would with journaling and poetry separately. The atmosphere is decorated with Japanese animation sketches of characters throughout this traditional brick and mortar store. The drink lid also contain animation sketches. As a Asian American woman, I do not have a iota for taken an interest in Asian animation sketches and never did. However, I have a strong predilection for traditional fictional cartoon characters as Hello Kitty, Charlie Brown, Snoopy, or Paddington Bear. This Edison, NJ Gong Cha contains a free parking lot that is shared among neighboring business of a shopping complex 863 Logan Plaza. There are two large Japanese beckoning cats maneki-neko 招き猫 at the register which are adorable and beautiful. Customer service is prompt and efficient because I was the sole customer at that moment. A fleeting moment is all I need to attain my default drink. The female server/cashier Keshia is efficient and attentive. I did receive a sales receipt. Peach green tea, medium $6.50 I requested Oolong tea, but the cashier inadvertently inputted my order in the register as green tea. However, my sales receipt attained stated "Notes: oolong." The tea actually did taste Oolong as well as the dark coloring which my order is accurate. One medium drink with grass jelly loeng4 fan2 涼粉 $.075, regular ice 100%, and sugar 30%. I desired this drink to be cold and no milk which my requests were fulfilled and satisfied. The tea was standard but good quality. I have a predilection for Oolong and green tea - particularly Matcha green tea. The ice, as usual, entirely melted and my drink became room temperature - this time during my long-haul car ride returning to NYC. The grass jelly is average, somewhat served chilled and paucity for minimal quantity but a nice delight. I strongly believe there is a price discrimination for preferential treatment as New Jersey is significantly lowered price than its neighbor state New York. For $6.50 medium drink it is very reasonable price by the economic standards of stagflation 2026 era. If I live within distance from Edison, New Jersey and have driving skills enabling car ownership I would surely make the occasional trek to this Edison, NJ bubble tea business.

    Line is pretty long & orders come out pretty slow from my experience going here couple of times…read more Menu is same as other locations, but if you're a first timer, I highly recommend the honey oolong milk tea with no sugar except from the honey and medium ice. I found it not overly sweet where you feel thirsty, but hits the sweet tooth craving. Their bubble waffle is great too, especially if you get boba inside. There are few tables and chairs for dine in option, but most seem to order to go. Facilities are clean, fairly quiet, and plenty of parking.

No real interaction with the staff but they are efficient. Place is clean with some space for seating.

This location is accessible via A train at 42nd Street Port Authority. Upon arriving there was a woman in front of me arguing with the staff persistently haggling the price to be lowered, but to no avail. Woman, no means no! There are other bubble tea businesses within the locale that may appease your needs, but not this particular Gong Cha whom apologized for the inconvenience of the inability to lower the price on the product ordered. As I waited patiently, I took photos of this business' environment. The staff stated the cash register is not working and currently unable to accept either credit or debit cards, but cash only payments. Ergo, I was unable to obtain a sales receipt nor a drink label printed. I wonder if the staff reboot the register or check their internet connection to be offline as the cause of non-functioning O/O/O. [1] Customer service is average. Well... if the staff can lower the price for one customer why not lower it for ALL customers? Surely, why not make my drink order as inclusion for lowering the price, please? Hell no, of course not! The conclusion was ironclad. In the real world, this cannot happen. As I stood on line waiting for this woman to let go and walk away from her argument I had shrunk to my own gnawing thoughts. I took photos of the atmospheric environment. There is a cute signage: "Bubble tea where refreshment meets creativity." The pink metal water bottle is very adorably cute which is something that I would certainly purchase. Peach green tea, medium $7.25 My favorite default topping grass jelly (aka herbal jelly) loeng4 fan2 涼粉 is my standard request for $0.75 which was good, but not served chilled. At 30% sugar level request, it was slightly higher in sugar content. Former NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg would shake his head at me in disbelief with disapproval and disappointment for consuming this excessively sugary drink. The peach green tea was not the cause of the sweetness but a man-made sugar embed measurement error. Nevertheless, this Gong Cha satisfied my bubble tea fix as it is now my addiction - in addition to my other addiction, writing. [1] O/O/O = Out Of Order
