    Coffee Milk Tea, Mango Pomelo Sago, Lavender Lemonade
    Sam Y.

    Located in the Chinese Restaurant Great East at the entrance. The Mango Pomelo Sago has a good mango flavor with lots of sago on the bottom, and the salty cheese foam on top. I didn't expect the cheese foam but it balances out the sweetness of the mango. The Lavender Lemonade is a seasonal drink. Mostly tastes of lemonade and sparkling water. There is not much lavender. The Coffee Milk Tea with Pudding (less ice, less sugar) has a great coffee flavor. The sweetness of the pudding is perfect with the coffee and less sugar. The plastic drink tray was kind of flimsy for 3 drinks, so I left 2 in and carried the 3rd. Not much of a concern. Convenient if you don't want to go into Downtown Flushing, or you are in the area shopping or grabbing food!

    Keepin it real out here, it's an unassuming spot from the outside but they delivered. Don't expect to get the bougie boba we are all used to nowdays, this spot is more like a throwback but with updated prices and flavors. It's still a solid choice since it's in a quiet part of Flushing, inside a takeout restaurant, and they're def making it work

    This boba joint is definitely a neighborhood hidden gem! This boba place is located inside a well established takeout place (which also serves delicious food!!) they carefully handcraft each and every drink. The drinks can definitely rival big chains with added personal touch that large chains are limited to! I highly recommend! Oh! Did I mention they also serve freshly made musubi (traditionally triangle rice roll) which is perfect for someone who is on the go rushing to their next location!

    This is your local boba shop for quick serviced milk tea and fruit drinks. I'm so glad that I don't have to go all the way to main st just to get boba now. This boba bar is located inside an unassuming mom and pop Chinese Takeout Restaurant , right when you enter. The workers are so nice and recommended me my new fav go to drink: Taro Fresh Milk !!

    Disappointed that they were out of coconut jelly and a lot of other toppings. They put a note on…read morethe kiosk "no boba". I didn't know that meant other toppings as well. I got the passion fruit green tea and mango coconut. Both were actually very delicious. The staff was super apologetic for the lack of toppings and felt bad I didn't want to substitute the coconut jelly. I honestly just wanted something refreshing and it did the trick. This spot is small, but they have spots to sit and WiFi which is really good to know. Not a bad addition to this part of Northern. I think I officially like Gong Cha.

    Call us boba tea connoisseurs (and we are), but we have such a 'love and less love' relationship…read morewith Gong Cha, as with several other similar chains. The bottom line is that very few boba tea shops focus on a truly great brew. This is not surprising but still disappointing, because I'm aware that the vast majority of customers buy flavoured beverages rather than freshly brewed teas. What I liked about this particular location was the ease of touch screen ordering right in front of the person filling the order. I personally order in person much more frequently, but can't deny the convenience and definitely see the pros. Ultimately, their green tea was bland, and the decent boba couldn't quite make up for that. Still, it wasn't much better or worse than other Gong Cha locations or similar chains. I hope they continue to improve.
