    First time and the staff helped us pick the best options. I loved my hojicha latte. I got 50% sweet as they told me and it was perfect. The oolong boba was good too but is different from the boba he was used to.

    Sweet place for a stop, very friendly. The boba was good hence there was lack of taste where I couldn't find.

    Solid boba tea spot. We ordered Roasted Oolong Tea Latte, Golden bubble Milk Tea, and Lychee Milk Tea. We lessened the sweetness on these drinks and the balance of tea flavor, sweetness, and creaminess was top notch imo. I was impressed with the roasted oolong and Lychee Milk Tea profile. No issues with service. This is mainly order to go style.

    Been here a few times, and it's managed to distinguish itself from the sea of other boba spots that have saturated NYC by being the "Yuzu Tea" spot. It's where I go when I want some strong yuzu flavor a la candied yuzu rinds mixed with my green tea of choice. The golden bubbles are actually very well made and chewy, but I've come to realize that without any toppings, the yuzu tea is kind of lackluster on its own--and their other flavors aren't all that interesting. So I wouldn't classify Fiftylan a must-visit unless you really like those rinds.

    No construction sign could block my view of 50Lan, an incredibly iconic Taiwanese shop that has finally made its way to the U.S. Unfortunately, just like in Taiwan, they don't yet offer any non-dairy milk alternatives so getting a milk tea was a bust. They even have items labeled as "vegan friendly," but it would've been nice to try a milk tea since that's normally my go-to drink. Instead, I ordered their Peach Green Tea and it was a refreshing drink on a rather humid day. The sugar and ice levels were good, and the boba was on the chewier side if you enjoy that texture. Inside was aesthetically cute and I hope to see them expand further here in the States with more options. Maybe get one to open in the west coast next?

    This location is a little hidden behind some scaffolding and construction but it's clean and inviting. The tea and pearls are very fresh and if you want a solid boba then FIFTYLAN is a great choice! I usually order ahead and it's always ready and the service is friendly too.

    Went to get the brown sugar & coffee Konjac milk tea and is so good! Will come back try other drinks

    FIFTYLAN has quickly become one of my favorite bubble tea spots. I love their golden bubbles, which have the perfect amount of bounce and chew. You can't go wrong with the classic golden bubble milk tea, and the lychee milk tea's also floral and tasty. My most recent obsession is their delicious pistachio green milk tea, which has a great roasted nutty flavor. My one qualm is that it's annoyingly hard to mix in the pistachio paste, which sticks to the side and firms up. And no, shaking won't do squat! I always need to actively scrape and swirl those pieces in with my straw, so I wish it was more of an easy-to-mix liquid. The drinks are pricey, like all quality bubble tea spots these days. But if I'm gonna spend the equivalent of a cheap meal here, it'd better deliver, and this place does.

    Heard about all the hype about this Boba tea shop and decided to pay them a visit. This location doesn't have much seating, just some wooden benches along the wall. Ordering was fairly easy, and staff was pretty friendly. Ordered the popular Golden milk tea with boba- wait time was about ten minutes. The tea itself was okay, it was the orangery Bobas that made the tea taste better. Boba has just the right texture and bounce that makes you want to sip more of the drink. Overall, I enjoyed the tea drink.

    Golden Bubble Milk Tea
    Sylvia T.

    Surprisingly good. Tea flavor was decently strong but sweet. The boba was nicely chewy and flavorful as well. Picked up to go but there is some seating in the store.

    Stopped here on a really hot day for a cold bubble tea and it did not disappoint! The exterior is under construction but the interior is clean and finished. There's one long bench but this is mostly a grab-and-go set up. There's a pretty decent menu to choose from and they let you customize ice and sugar level (a MUST in my book!) I got the honey green tea with boba ($8.06 after tax)

    Fiftylan is hands-down one of my favorite boba spots in NYC. I've truly never had a drink there I didn't love. Riding the wave of the pistachio trend, they're bringing back their fan-favorite pistachio drink. As a pistachio lover, of course I had to give it a try. *Pistachio Green Milk Tea I'd recommend taking your first sip straight, then trying it with the pistachio spread. It was rich, nutty, and almond-y for some reason, even though there wasn't any almonds in the drink--just a heads up in case you don't like the taste of almond. Note that it's not dairy-free and does contain nuts. I asked and they said they could make a non-cream version to avoid dairy. Golden bubbles are the only topping option, and they recommend going with 50% sugar--it was the perfect level of sweetness in my opinion. *Peach Green Tea with Golden Bubble So refreshing and fruity! Their peach tea is my go-to order. We asked for 25% sugar and it was just perfect. I don't usually add boba to my drinks, but their golden bubble really impressed me. It was transparent, and chewier than typical boba.

    Golden Bubble Milk Tea
    Carina H.

    This was my first time trying Fiftylan, and the Golden Bubble Milk Tea did not disappoint. The bubbles were chewy, and the milk tea was a classic. The store was fairly quiet when I stepped in, but there was a steady flow of customers. There were standing tables, and some seating was available.

    Tea tasted watered down, worse than Lipton. Bubbles were small and not chewy. Very disappointing. Better off going to Flushing.

Upon arrival we noticed the difference in crowds. Not as busy and packed sidewalks. Also it was a lot cleaner than Chinatown. Since we just ate at C-Town, it was time to find a good dessert place in K-Town. So we walked and we walked until I saw a banner sign showing shaved ice desserts. Then I noticed the name of the business is Grace Street. How fitting, because that is my wife's name. So we went in and what caught my eye was a mango shaved ice with mangoes, mochi, strawberries, and condensed milk, however I was over ruled by my wife and we went with the black sesame and mochi and condensed milk. It also had red bean, but that had to be on the side, since that gives me gout. Such nice staff taking orders and we went into the dining area to find a seat. What a large spacious area with many tables. Our order came out and it looked so good. The black sesame shaved ice or snow as it's also referred to as, was perfectly sweetened by the condensed milk and the chewy mochi. Definitely cleaned my pallet from our Chinese lunch and it helped cool me down from the New York heat. We got water, but there was no ice offered, so I asked one of the workers and he was kind enough to get me some. We are through that dessert like, if we didn't finish it fast, it was going to melt. We did not give it a chance to melt one bit. The staff here are efficient, as they saw we were done, they asked to clear our dessert bowl away. It was a nice experience even if it was just dessert. They definitely had more dessert options to offer, but i

Located on 32nd St, between Broadway & 5th Ave Train: 34 St-Herald Sq (N/Q/R/W); also an easy walk from Penn Station. Overall, a great casual dessert stop after exploring K-Town, Midtown or nearby Chelsea.

And I commonly see the upstairs for private events like baby showers, bridal showers, or birthday parties on social media. After dinner with my friends, I was looking for dessert and I was glad to see this location closes relatively late on a weekday night at 11 pm. Upon walking in, I was greeted by a waiter who led us to one of the purple velvet chair booths that was perfect for two people and another waiter brought us a pitcher of water almost immediately. The menu is on a QR code already on the table and we were given ample of time to decide. My friend and I both already knew what we wanted to order. I got the purple Yam Souffle which takes 25 minutes to make and my friend got the fried squid tails. We also got a signature Rose Green Milk Tea to share. The waitress who took our order has great memory and recalled all of our items without writing it down. She also reminded me that I could adjust the ice and sugar levels of my drink which I had completely forgotten and would have got annoyed if my drink came out 100% sweetness. Another thing is that my drink order frequently comes out wrong at other locations so I was glad she got it right! Green tea instead of black tea and with milk instead of without milk. The purple Yam Souffle is just like the other locations. Hot, soft cakey texture balanced with an ice cold red bean Ice-Cream. So delicious! The squid tails on the other hand was not what we expected. It came out burnt and hard. The outer batter was not crispy either. We informed one of the waiters and he brought it back to inform the kitchen staff. We received a new batch that was not as burnt and had more flavoring this time around. However, the squid was still hard and not like the ones we get from other locations with smaller crispier pieces. Overall, it was still a good experience and I love the decorations at this location! This might be my second favorite location after the Flushing one. Would love to come back for brunch or hi-tea. Or regular food options when I have not already eaten dinner. My usual go-tos are the twister fries, Santa Fe chicken rolls, fried salted crispy chicken, and the trio dessert combo. However, this location has a lot more variety! FYI - there are two unisex restrooms in the rear for customers to use with really cute wallpapers too.

We ordered potted rose milk tea to share, Dubai affogato and Brown Sugar Boba Mille Crêpes Cake. We came on a Friday around 4pm. Originally I wanted to try the strawberry matchamisu, however, was told that it sold out. What a bummer. The rose milk tea came with a themed pot and cups which is really cute. The rose fragrant smelled so good and the milk tea also tasted good and has a hint of rose taste. The cake was good, the boba was well cooked, chewy and flavorful! This time there was an unpleasant experience. At first when the Dubai affogato was served, we did not realize that the amount of the coffee was little until we saw another customer's dish that the volume of their coffee looked significantly more than ours. My friend brought it to the waitress attention but the waitress brushed it off and did not acknowledge our concern. When we finished and were about to leave, the same waitress came over and showed us that the container of the coffee was different and hence the volume of the coffee looked different. At this point, we did not care for it anymore. We would have been fine if the staff acknowledged our concern. We thought that maybe using standardized containers for the coffee would avoid this problem. Other than that, the food and drinks were good.
