    Large Green Milk Tea Boba
    Lisa P.

    Come here if you want normal boba and nothing crazy. This place always does the trick. Their classic boba is the best. They made my drink quickly but boba prices have spiked. My drink costed $6.42 and I literally get a whole meal at McDonald's with that. It is kind of noisy and loud in here so bring your earphones if you want to work. Otherwise it is a great cheap hang out.

    I was in town for a conference and wanted to grab a bubble tea before hitting the road. There were 3 options on the same block. I went to each with this location being the last. After inspecting the reviews and the menu at each location, I chose Gong Cha (mainly because of the menu). I was very happy with my choice. The bubble tea here is definitely high quality. I got an iced black milk tea with pearls, with light ice and 30% sugar. They did not skimp on the pearls, which is what made the drink really enjoyable for me. The pearls were fresh, perfectly cooked and sweetened. The location in NJ puts a bit more sugar at 30% than this location so when I am in town, I will most likely increase my sugar percentage so I don't rely on the pearls for sweetness. But either way, because they included a large amount of pearls, I enjoyed every sip and chew.

    New, clean, and very efficient at making drinks -- took 2 minutes max! The large size is actually quite large - perfect for sharing with one other after dinner. You still have to be willing to shell out $5-6 for a drink, but that is consistent across the board with boba nowadays. Pretty standard flavors - I'd say the most interesting things they have that I don't see elsewhere are the lemon aiyu and earl grey milk tea. Minimal seating - about 3 tables. Lots of traffic given proximity to Northeastern and generally a busy area!

    Awesome!!! Absolutely delicious tea, my first time trying was in the Cambridge Mall, but I was pleased to find a closer location can't wait to have again awesome service as well!

    Tried two new drinks today, and the service was considerably better, even though it's New Year's Day. I ordered a Earl Grey Milk Tea with 3 J's (no Grass Jelly) and a Caramel Milk Tea with Pearls. I absolutely loved the flavor of the Earl Grey Milk Tea, and I think 50% sugar is perfect, especially if you get more than one topping. Pudding is also one of my favorite toppings to go with milk tea--it's silky smooth and has a very subtle custard sweetness! The Caramel Milk Tea tasted quite artificial (and very buttery), which didn't appeal to me, but my friend enjoyed the flavor. In both drinks, the pearls felt a little harder than usual, but it wasn't really bothersome. I also noticed that whatever "Ice Level" you choose, the drinks seem to be the same (slightly colder than room temp) temperature. Again, all the tables were very clean and the playlist was at the perfect background volume. By the way, if you live in/around Boston and frequent Gong Cha, it's definitely worth it to sign up for the Fivestars Reward app! they sometimes send you little discounts (like 1$ off a drink), and you receive a point for every dollar spent (at any Boston-area Gong Cha location) and $5 off when you reach 50 points.

    I absolutely love Gong Cha, so I hate to give this location a bad rating. However, I found a fly in my drink the last time I came, so I will not be coming back.

    Mediocre boba tea - however was disappointed with the incredible rude behavior by the folks who work there. Not worth the attitude

    I love HeyTea! Still my favorite location to go to in MA…read more I've experienced the least amount of problems here, compared to the other two (Newbury St. & Natick). PLUS, they close later than both. I have this bad habit of going here almost every time I have a meal in the area LOL. The addiction is real! I love that they keep adding new drinks to their menu... keeps it interesting. My favorite is still the Mango Coconut Boom but I'm a fan of most of their new drinks, like the Golden Oolong Yuzu & their King Jasmine Guava! I tried the Pistachio Cloud Jasmine Coconut, as well, and it's super similar to one of my favorites from MollyTea. I prefer the one from MollyTea more w/ champaca tea. Since their opening here, I have tried almost all of the drinks & their mango coconut boom is STILL superior! Highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys mango. It is pretty much their version of mango pomelo sago (they have a version with pomelo but I like it without). SO GOOD! ***Pro tip: order ahead of time via HeyTea app. This is a lifesaver, since the wait time is pretty atrocious most days still. Usually takes ~20 min to be ready.

    LOVEDDDD THIS! so refreshing and perfect for pistachio lovers…read more there's typically a ~20min wait for this location but it goes by fast honestly. i recommend ordering ahead on their app to avoid a long wait

    What a fun and funky place to randomly walk into! I waltzed in to Tea Do to find it absolutely…read morepacked (I'm sure a large portion of the patronage was due to the fact that it was Pride, but from what I've read this location is typically pretty busy regardless)! They have three tablet kiosks for self-ordering, and it's an intuitive UI, so the process was simple. Once I made my decision from their extensive list of options and combinations, it took me maybe 2 minutes from start to finish to build and submit my order. I ordered a large taro milk tea and it was everything I had hoped for. Flavorful, not too sweet, and the tapioca was a wonderful consistency. My only thing was that it was so busy and loud that the staff were unable to continuously call out when orders were complete, or you couldn't hear them. I eventually went up to the bar, noticed my drink had been sitting a few minutes, yelled over, "This is mine, thanks!!" Smiled, and then grabbed it. Beyond that? It was absolutely a great experience.
