Hi Tea is back!! I was so excited to visit thier new location today and the inside was so cute! Much more spacious and the decor is great. Grabbed my favorite tea, Honeydew Iced tea with watermelon and also tried out thier new dim sum. The barbeque pork rice rolls were delicious... but I admit I have gotten those before. As always the owner is so sweet and stopped to check on how we liked everything, and welcomed us to the new location. I wanted to make sure to share out since they have been working on opening for awhile and they are certainly back better than ever. read more

We had a family emergency after just getting back from vacation so we were at crouse for a while after barely eating that day. I needed something quick and filling and found hi tea just searching for what was still open. Mobile ordered it and walked right over. They had just finished my drink and were finishing up the food. Very quick turn around which was great probably 15 minutes. The aesthetic of the store is adorable powder pink seating and lots of stuffed animals. The employees are super nice and friendly too. My milk tea was delicious and the sweet treat I needed, loved the cold foam they put on it and I got to decide the sugar level which I chose 50% and that was still very sweet. The rice noodles were delicious, perfect chewy consistency and great flavor. There was lots of shrimp and pork, I gave half to my boyfriend. Highly recommend if you're looking for something quick and easy but want something different from the usual chain. read more

The menu got me intrigued, the food will keep me coming back. I ordered bbq pork rice rolls which were great and a lean duck burger with lettuce, onion, fried egg, duck breast and hoisin sauce was also a winner. They have an extensive menu of teas, juices, shakes and dim sum items. We ordered for pick up and will do so again. Great spot. read more

I will waste no time. I have been wanting to come in here for a long time but I am always in a hurry to catch the bus. But today I was finally able to come in and I must absolutely love it!!!! For a small place everything is just too adorable! The bubble milk tea was a delight. The decor everywhere so cute and pink!!! The owner a lovely lady. It was only me when I first walked in but soon other customers walked in. Simply a joy to sit in for a couple minutes. I look forward to trying so many other of the drinks and desserts.

I used to love this place but it's gone down hill. So sad! I ordered take out today and was so disappointed when I took my first bite. The noodles were cooked improperly, all lumped together, a big ball of mush. read more

Best bubble tea in Syracuse. If you are looking for a spot to quench your bubble tea cravings, this is the place to go. Ordering down the menu, not once was I disappointed with my order. They offer a variety of bubble teas, and my favorite would have to be the Thai Milk Tea. There is a lot of customization, and they use real and fresh fruits. You can really taste the tea in their drinks, not powdery at all. The relaxed ambience of the store makes it an ideal spot for studying. Not to mention, that their staff is very well trained and sweet. If you are currently in the Syracuse area and want some bubble tea, you should definitely come here! read more

A fun little spot to play board games and enjoy boba tea and snacks at Marshall street. I tried crepe cake for the first time, and it was good. The mochi was not my favorite, but I definitely recommend the brown sugar boba. read more

Great place to grab tea (robust combination menu) and lunch. All sorts of tea are available and the staff will help you through a decision if you're not familiar. You can order ahead through Yelp for pick up also which is a huge plus. The sesame seed duck with fried noodle is if you're on the fence about getting it. read more

Came here for a treat after work & I had such a great experience! The workers were all friendly and attentive. The inside was clean & everyone was following social distancing rules, even in this semi-small shop. The prices are good, the quality is great! I got their Mango Sabo with Pomelo drink - refreshing & light. My fiancé got their Oreo Cheesecake drink - tastes just like an Oreo, a bit more tart which we both liked! Both of these are regular sizes, which is just a great deal because you get so much! Next time I'll definitely be getting their food!! read more

Stopped by for a quick boba randomly. I ordered the milk taro under the recommendation of the worker. My friend ordered the bursting dragon fruit and kiwi basil green tea. The milk taro tea was served hot with chunks of cooked taro. Really hit the spot for a cold December day. The place has some card games for people to hang out, connect four, playing cards and cards against humanity. Great place to hang out, study or grab a quick drink. They also have desserts but I did not get a chance to try any of them. read more

I love coming here as it is a relaxing environment and the drinks are delicious. Highly recommend!

BOWO: Best Option When Stranded (in Syracuse) They've gotten better but there has still been times where the drinks are made off - not flavored enough. [EDITED since last visit] Opened up last week replacing the old sushi place on Marshall. Interior was designed to be aesthetically pleasing & decorated as best as they could based off location & target customers as college students don't really look too deeply into every aspect of the teahouse (like the fact that the ceilings aren't covered - you can see pipes and stuff). The walls are nicely covered with posters showing off the the drinks & food they offer however it'd be nicer if both posters were the same color (pink) so they can pair up nicely with the pink couch and everything else. I got the rose oolong tea with sea salt milk foam & it was pretty good. But the tea didn't have the rose taste - I wish it was a stronger taste since you can barley tell that it's rose. The price is pretty decent for a tea shop on Marshall where everyone usually goes. I also got the golden curry fish balls. It was overpriced considering there was only 8 pieces. The fishball also tasted more like fish cake because of the texture. But the curry sauce was pretty good. I would definitely come back as I feel like I'm getting more authentic stuff here compared to Unique Tea House, which is also on the same street. read more

Super cute little cafe style to hang out with friends or do some hw. Located at a convenient spot. I came here multiple times for their milk tea and I love how strong the tea taste and it is all brew fresh. I always get the Earl grey bubble milk tea and the jasmine milk tea. The tea bags are kept in the drinks. Highly recommended for drinks. read more

Love this place! Super cute and staff is friendly. The bubble tea is authentic and not too sweet. I love the cups because you can sip from it or put a straw into it. Will definitely return soon! read more

Loved their cakes here! Super light and fluffy, and you don't feel heavy afterwards. The matcha crepe cake is the best

Their coffee is top notch, service is amazing and seriously their cups are the cutest most functional to go cups I have EVER seen!

Decent cozy place for 2-3 girl's talk with classic boba tea. Nothing fancy but it's a regular tea house. Crowd is pretty much in and out to grab some milk tea. Bbq pork rice is not clay pot but it's prepackaged and simply heat it up. It's nice. read more

Good bubble tea with a good variety of flavors, but it is very expensive and took about 45 minutes for the order to be ready. To be fair, it was very busy as it was lunch time but there are other bubble tea options on Marshall street if you're not able to wait that long during the work day for your drink. read more

So many options to choose from, but I went with what I'm familiar with and that's the Thai tea. I've tried many before and this one really hit the spot. Will definitely now move on to trying other options, they passed the Thai tea test! read more

We can all rejoice now because this place exists. This place brings the asian community of Syracuse together. They have various tea, snacks, rice plates, and dessert. FC is located on the proximal end of the plaza in relation to the strip (sorry, anatomy lingo has overtaken my life) There is a slight ramp walking into the store, becareful not to trip or miss step... there are 5 tables with half booth seats and half chairs that are not very structured or sturdy (beware if you are over 150 lbs) The decor is random but cute, they have card games and board games. did not see many electrical outlets. Music choice is top 40s.. The price is a little steep compared to the other options if you're going to add toppings to your drink. I've had: lightly roasted oolong with milk, classic black milk tea, and jasmine green tea. Every drink has been pretty good. If you have a senstivity for sweetness, you'll probably want 50% sugar level. My friend has tried the soy sauce claypot chicken, she states that it was good but there wasn't enough chicken compared to bone. (typical) in my opinion, the matcha mille crepe is comparable to lady M, but only because we are stranded in syracuse with no other option. 8.5/10 would recommend read more

Tips: The classic milk tea is made from the roasted black tea. I recommend at most 50% sweetness for anyone who is a tea lover for their milk teas. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I'm so happy that another milk tea spot has opened up in Syracuse! This is a great place to grab some milk tea and hang out with your friends. There is a small assortment of games to play and about 4 tables for groups of 4. The milk tea tastes great and I am a huge fan of tea flavor so I'll usually get 50% sweetness at most. I've stuck to the classic milk tea and that is my go to. This place reminds me a lot of the milk tea places back home in the Bay Area in California and I would recommend it to anyone who is on the search for milk tea. read more

I really enjoy their bubble teas. However i ordered 'seafood fried rice' on Oct 27 2021 and some of the shrimp in it was clearly spoilt. It was mushy instead of firm. I felt a bit sick and i don't think i'll ever order seafood from them again. Teas maybe. But they are relatively pricey. read more

This location changed their name from Feng Cha to Hi Tea. I am not too sure if ther menu changed as well but from what I heard, the milk tea still tastes the same. This location is placed conveniently around other restaurants and shops so it's a great spot to stop by after having a meal. I came around 1:30 on a Tuesday evening and luckily for around 2 hours it stayed empty and quiet. I know that during later hours it would probably be a little more hectic since students would be getting out a little later during the day. However, during the quiet hours it's a great place to get some work done and hangout with a friend. The bubble teas ice level and sugar level is adjustable to your taste. I have no complaints abour the milk tea and the tapioca. They also serve hot foods like rice rolls, clay pot rice, Roast duck rice, etc. It's a great place to get some boba and I'd come here whenever I'm around. read more

I feel compelled to write this review after my recent visit to Feng Cha. I have been going regularly for a while and always have a great time. The staff is fantastic and the tea is the best in Syracuse. However, this past weekend I noticed a beta fish being housed in an incredibly undersized "bowl" (see attached photo). I am sure that the owners are just unaware but the condition in which they are keeping this fish is cruel. According to the College of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, beta fish should be housed in a "5-gallon glass or plastic tank or larger" with a low-flow filter and temperature control. Again, I am sure that the owners are just uniformed as they probably purchased a product marketed as a habitat for beta fish, however beta fish specific products are notoriously too small and not properly filtered. Kept in the current condition the water quality will be difficult or impossible to maintain and toxins can build up leading to immunosuppression and other diseases. Again, I really enjoy the service and quality of Feng Cha but I hate to see an animal needlessly suffering. I am posting this review in hopes that the owners see it and either rehome the fish or create an appropriate habitat for it at which point I will gladly change my review to a well-deserved 5 stars. It is important to remember that fish are sentient and should not be used as decoration with no consideration to their well-being. I encourage the owners to look into the bevy of information on proper beta fish care available online. When the beta fish is cared for humanely and compassionately customers will be able to admire the beauty of the fish in a way that is respectful to the animal. read more

Hi Tea - Amazing staff and tea but very disappointed by the inhumanely kept beta fish. Please consider providing him with a more appropriate habitat. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Syracuse, New York

I enjoyed their collection of tea drinks, especially the matcha one. I don't think one can go wrong. However their dishes are quite disappointing. I tried the duck noodle and beef brisket noodle, and both are very bad. Try their beverages but skip their dishes. read more

They are located at the ever so popular Marshall street and they are most definitely a welcome edition there. We now once again have 2 fantastic choices for boba on the hill. (We miss you Bobba Suite). Right when you walk in here you will absolutely love the decode. It's extremely cute and decorated to be inviting. While there is no probably walking in and leaving with your tea, I recommend having a seat and hanging with friends. They have a large selection of your classic fruity flavors, regular milk teas, and other drinks as well. I also highly recommend you try out some of their delicious house made desserts. They pair perfectly with a cold milk tea. The service is right on point with extremely friendly staff who will make you feel more than welcome. The prices are also on point with the market when it comes to bubble teas. I highly recommend coming here. read more

Great drinks overall and nice shop vibe. My favorite is the strawberry overload! Perfect ratio of sweetness and tea flavor. Most shops make this drink too sweet, but this was perfect. read more

What a great addition to Syracuse! I wouldn't and couldn't complain if Syracuse had 800 boba places. I really cannot get enough milk tea. This place sells a lot more than just bubble tea. They have egg tarts, crepe cake, clay pot chicken and pork dishes, and much more. I tried the rose oolong tea with taro foam, the lychee oolong tea with cheese foam topping and the matcha crepe cake. I thought the crepe cake was great because the layers of crepe were super thin. I liked that you could really adjust the level of sweetness with your drinks. The interior has window bar-style seating and tables that fit around 4 people. They have board games inside for you to borrow too. Parking is difficult since this place is located around the university campus. I loved that they had durian topping as an option. This is the only milk tea place so far that does the cheese foam-style milk teas. I liked the cute little squishy toys they had on the tables and the lamps that had kawaii faces. Staff members were friendly. I'd love to come back and try their egg tarts and savory foods. read more

Stopped in randomly looking for late night food. The restaurant was very bright and cute inside. I order their duck shred garlic soy sauce fried noodles and was sadly disappointed. The food was very salty and carried one taste. I was hoping for awesome flavor but the only thing awesome about the restaurant was the music and looking at the desserts. read more

I am not a tea person to start but when I saw they had a strawberry tea I thought I'd try it. It was sweet with a semi strong tea background flavor. I could get used to it honestly. It was visually pleasing as well. I think I would certainly get it again to see how it grows on me. If you enjoy tea though definitely check this one out :) read more

The mango drink I got was pretty yogurty, but tasty. The food was good! We managed to feed three people with plenty of leftovers. The sausage rice roll I ordered seemed to not have any meat in it? The garlic noodles with duck were very tasty, and so was the fried rice with pork. read more

A friend and I dropped by later in the evening to have a couple of fruit teas. The seating area was adorably decorated with plush character pillows and was brightly lit. I ordered the Kiwi Basil Green Tea and my friend ordered the Strawberry Overload. The fruit teas were most excellent and we liked that there were actual fruit in them. My friend unfortunately found the unhappy surprise of a piece of plastic in her drink. She simply removed the plastic and continued drinking her fruit tea. read more

Went here yesterday for bubble tea. Pretty great honestly. Wasn't expecting it to be so cute on the inside !! There is stuffed animals everywhere, and it's just a really nice environment overall. Staff was friendly, and let me sample like 5 different things before I made a decision. Got some mango thing that was a specialty that I didn't really like that much, and a REALLY good strawberry tea thing. Just know what your ordering honestly and you'll be good. read more

Tried their bubble tea on a whim and the bf and I are absolutely in love with this place! Just visiting from NYC so we really didn't have high expectations but we were pleasantly surprised and have basically been having their bubble tea every day. We have been trying something new everytime and so far have not been disappointed. Tried 11 different flavors and we loved them all! I highly recommend! This place does not disappoint! read more

My favorite place ever. I come every week. Their tapioca balls are THE BEST. I suggest a peach oolong tea- my go too. Or a Thai tea or brown sugar milk tea. Delicious every time read more

Solid bubble tea. While they don't have as much selection as Kung fu tea, they offer more selections of the milk foam. Can't get enough of the taro version! They also have crape cake, which haven't seen in other places at Syracuse. Nice sitting space with a good atmosphere. read more
