Based on my experience this summer, I have to lower my review to 3 stars. The quality of the food and drinks are not as good as before. It might be because they have different staff for the summer? For the most part, the food is ok. They did have less food selections in the summer because they are less busy so they order less food, which is fine. My problem is my husband and I both got a little sick the last time we ordered food from them. We ordered the popcorn chicken (which we always do), and we also decided to try the Curry pork Tonkastu. I did notice the curry tasted a little off, but couldn't pin point why. Since we waited so long for our food, we were so hungry by the time we got our food that we just ate everything. My stomach didn't feel well for a couple days afterwards, and food from Kung Fu Tea was the only thing I ate differently from my normal routine. The pork was either not fresh and the curry might have turned. I still like the place because they do have the best milk tea in Buffalo but I just have to make sure I don't order food in the summer because the products might not be the freshest. The service is also really slow in the summer. Each time we went, we have to wait at least 15 mins for our drinks and they weren't even busy. One time in particular, we waited over half an hour for our order because the girl forgot to make our drinks. The food was ready before our drinks were. There were maybe a couple other customers at the time waiting for their order. Instead of making the drinks, the girl was busy chatting with her friend. I did go back today just for drinks and it went a lot quicker because there were more people working since the semester is starting on Monday. I tend to avoid this place during the semester because it gets busy, but I think I have to come back more during the school year and less during the winter break or summer to get better food and services. read more

This place can become addicting, make sure you have the stomach to try new things or you might get bored with the basics. Passion fruit green tea at 50% sugar is my recommendation read more

Very nice interior but not so nice staff. The barista with the bow tie shirt seems like she's always in a bad mood. Drinks are good but over priced. read more

Tea is good but food still have space to improve. （The popcorn chicken is nasty）. The cashier has attitude and is very impolite.

Let me clarify Kung Fu Tea for you: Kung Fu Tea is a bubble tea house on the campus of Univerity at Buffalo staffed by college students with a very limited selection of teas and an even more limited menu of snacks. If you have ever bubble tea especially the real variety in cities like Houston, you will be disappointed. This a a poor execution of bubble tea intended for the bubble naïve. Please do not come here for the food. You will be disappointed in both the food, tea and service. read more

My husband and I discovered this on campus gem by accident one late afternoon and become saddened in the "off season" when their hours change. The food is always on point, but if you are a bubble tea fan, this is the place to be! Delicious! read more

I honestly don't know how this KFT run their business. SMFH. recently i visit KFT again and i realized they raised the price and the portion is smaller. when i ordered the popcorn chicken over rice, there is only a few piece of chicken.. and the worst part is the rice is fucking smush, it's like fucking rice pudding but plain. They need to know the different between rice and rice pudding. Here comes the ridiculous part, they don't have fucking big strew for customer to drink their bubble milk tea and etc. are you serious kft? you gonna sell people bubble milk teas and don't have the big strews for people? you mind as well tell customers you guy got no toppings for the drink, cause we ain't gonna use forks or our finger to eat the toppings for the drinks. Lastly, customer service. do your workers know how to smile? every-time i go order something, they seem like they're in a damn funereal. Making the customers loose their appetite. Good luck with the business . PS. I aint hating, this place is just too fucking bad. ` read more

Hands down my favorite KFT due to the atmosphere and the FOOD MENU!!! I like to order the classic milk tea with a side of their bulgogi over rice & french fries (little spicy). Perfect lunch meal if I do say so myself read more

They have this new promotion on their new drink Mango Green Tea. It comes with the jelly. For all you thirsty people out there, get this drink and your thirst will be quenched. And for you meat lovers, they got the new Popcorn Chicken and Braised Pork over Rice. Comes with an egg and cabbage. read more

I love the bubble tea here! My favorite drink is yogurt grapefruit! It's awesome that you can adjust your sugar levels at this place. They also have really good food, their popcorn chicken is really unique! Overall I love this place! read more

My first time trying Bubble tea, and it was delicious. The location of the store was difficult to find on the UB campus.

Came back today and told them what happened last time. The manager offered me a free drink in apology. Next time I would check before leaving to make sure order is right. Really happy with the customer service. read more

Kung Fu Tea is hands down the best place for authentic bubble tea in Buffalo. They have a variety of flavors (my favorites include: passionfruit green tea, mango green tea and taro milk green tea) and a variety of toppings (herbal jelly, bubbles, nata jelly, red/green bean and even pudding!) They offer food as well (my go to meal = Curry Pork Tonkatsu or Chicken Leg Over Rice) Staff is friendly and very helpful in recommendations. Pricing is reasonable as well for the quality provided. read more

Probably, the best ambience by far in UB cafes. Food is decent enough. Combo pricing seems perfect. Popcorn chicken and rice with Bubble tea for $9 seems a good deal. Each serving is just enough for a person, so that might be deal breaker. But overall in UB this gives best bang for buck. read more

Bad,it said open 12 I been stood there for half hour no one come, never open. Just shuts the business please

Their drinks are my favourites around town and foods are quite good. But they have the worst customer service.

Had it not been my somewhat recent negative experience with the employees, this place would receive a 3-star review for its somewhat decent Taiwanese-style popcorn chicken. Putting customer service aside for now: This establishment is another branch of a ubiquitous chain that can be found everywhere in New York City. What differentiates this one from the others is that you can order actual meals with your bubble tea and the interior may remind you of a nightclub. However, the food can be mediocre as the pork belly dish tends to be on a fattier side with less lean meat, and its popcorn chicken is typically overseasoned with various spices and MSG. The bubble tea is also very watered down when you compare it the ones served by Tea Leaf Cafe. It should also be mentioned the cook does not wear a hat, which I am pretty sure is a violation of the health code. This restaurant is also not maintained very well considering how dirty the seats and tables can get. There is no one ensuring the tables are wiped down and there are occasional diners that do not carry their trash with them to the exit. This tends to result in a seating area with very oily tables and very messy containers left on top. Napkins are also rarely refilled to make matters worse. The most important bit of this review is the customer service. EVERY time I come to this place, the employees seem to look like they either had a bad day or they really hate their jobs. It is very disconcerting to order meals from an employee that can only give you a grumpy look with an attitude. On top of that, the wait time for a simple bubble tea order can last up to 30 minutes or more. This may be attributed to the fact that there is not a lot of hands working behind the counter. Perhaps it has to do with the girl "not showing up on time because she wants to take a nap". What really gave this place a 1-star review from me is one of its extremely rude employees that handled my order. I ordered a drink without knowing the price because of the fact it was not written on the menu (I probably should have asked). The one handling my order notified me FIFTEEN MINUTES later that they ran out of that particular drink. I was initially denied a refund for whatever reason and was told to choose any drink. The problem here was that the drink I ordered was apparently the most expensive drink than anything else on the menu. It may sound petty, but I was hard pressed in choosing a drink that was cheaper than what I initially ordered especially after waiting 15 minutes for a measly drink. The girl may not have realized the price difference, but she still lost her patience with me while I was browsing the menu and started shouting at me with extremely rude remarks which basically translated to "are you blind?". In my mind, I was really puzzled as to why she is shouting at me as if I was wasting her time. To make matters even worse, she thought it was appropriate to talk to her co-worker behind my back with rude remarks thinking her loud voice would not carry over. In the end, I got my refund but still left the place with a very bitter taste in my mouth as I should not have to leave an establishment with a pissed off mood especially when I wasted my time just to get yelled at. Overall, in its current state, I can not recommend this place unless you have no means of getting bubble tea at Tea Leaf, or absolutely must have some kind of Taiwanese dish to satisfy your cravings. If these shortcomings are addressed, this place has potential especially in a University with a lot of students from the Greater New York City area that are into these kinds of trendy places. read more

I walked in to do some promoting in the store and I was the one that learned about the store. Very nice atmosphere and really nice look. The receptionist was pretty and friendly. The owner was extremely nice and welcoming. After trying the Kung Fu Green Tea I felt great! It tasted good and loved the little chew balls in the drink, filling and fun. Go try it! read more

I've been to kungfutea in the city and it tastes just like it! But it's a bit pricier than in the city. The food is better than I expected! ... If it's available... I'm upset with the amount of food they have in stock. I've been to kungfutea multiple times and a quarter of the time something's unavailable. I asked for the popcorn chicken and it was unavailable. Then I asked for avocado fries... Not available. I remember one time when they actually had NO Boba. Maybe it's my luck but its a bit disappointing to see items sold out. End story... Drinks and food are good. read more

Kung Fu Tea - The dumpling is glistening in oil. But taste fantastic. The sauce is awesome - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Amherst, New York

I ordered Lemon Green Tea here and it has to be some of the worst that I have had. Very bitter and the pearls were not the right texture. The venue itself was extremely dirty as well. Would love to see these thing improve as it is very convenient this is on campus and the venue itself is amazing. Great atmosphere and decor with sub par tea and dirty tables and floors. read more

Trust me. Get the oolong milk tea. It is great. The food choices seem to be growing and i would recommend the braised pork rice. The food and the environment is great. The staffs are not too bad. If I'm not mistaken they sometimes have a buy one get one free promotion, so look out for that one. read more

Nice tea based restaurant. When I walked in the restaurant had a smell of ramen, didn't exactly know why being that they did not sell ramen. I liked the ambiance the establishment gives off its calm and connected to a college perfect for students on the go looking for a caffeinated get up. read more

Very good bubble tea if with 30% sugar. Now the food are 50% off so they are really worth the price! read more

Kung Fu Tea - Pineapple tea and honey tomato twister - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Amherst, New York

Best bubble tea cafe in the area! Drinks are made to order with a variety of delicious toppings you can add to your order. They also serve delicious Asian style food, such as Taiwanese popcorn chicken, Bulgolgi, pork belly and many more! Stop by, I'm sure you will be impressed with their delicious food and drinks at a very reasonable price! read more

I come here more frequently these few weeks because of the groupon deal. It's definitely one of the best place to get bubble tea in Buffalo. But if you are coming from the city and expect it to be as good as that, it wouldn't be a good comparison. For the food wise, I usually get the braised pork rice. It is good and the portion is just nice. Braised pork with buns is good too but can be a little fat at times. Chicken pop corns is good but my roommate said that sometimes it is a little oily. Deep fried tofu is too oily. The tea leaf eggs didn't cook long enough. So it wasn't flavorful enough. I tried the curry skewer twice. The first time was tofu skewer and it was good. The second time I got the fishball skewer. I didn't really like it. It seems like they didn't cook it long enough or something. I don't think I will get the skewer anymore. I tried the deep fried chicken wings too. I don't really like it and don't think I will try it again. All in all, the place is pretty good with great atmosphere. read more

Omg I'm so happy that there's kff here in buffalo!!!!! I drink this stuff all day!!! I espically like the oolong milk tea with herbal jelly!

The food is decent, especially given the choices of where to eat on campus. The only food I didn't like was the pork belly. I prefer mine crispy on the outside and smooth in the center, but it was just soft. The portions are not large for the money. A solid four stars, but the staff drops that to two. Some of them are extremely nice when it is slow, but when they start getting busy one girl can get extremely rude. read more

The drinks are great but the customer service not so much. Every time I come here I always get this vibe from whoever is taking my order like "ugh why are you here" but the most recent time was the worst I was second in line and only ordered three drinks they were calling everybody but me. I waited maybe 25-30 minutes and had to wait an extra five because they didn't seal one of the drinks properly. And one of the dumbest things was when I was finally called up the same girl that took my order and saw me standing there waiting for my order asked me for my receipt AND I WAS THE ONLY ONE SHE ASKED and when I handed it to her she just threw it out?? Probably never coming here again since I'm treated like scum obviously they don't need my money. read more

Says hours are until 11 but often close at around 9/10... you've been warned. For some reason, more expensive than the locations in NYC. Extremely crowded and doesn't seem well-managed, especially if employees are closing earlier than they're supposed to read more

So I went to kungfu tea for the first time, and this girl named Victoria gave me the worst attitude ever! She really needs to learn how to treat customers. I wasn't even being disrespectful or anything. Her attitude was completely outta nowhere! I love the food but I would never go back because of her shitty attitude. sorry kungfu tea read more

very rude employee. The lady in black hard and strong made-up, tall, skinny, who did not wear uniform? has terrible attitudes. First thing is, I have ordered the chicken leg combo and she charged me. Then I found that the Pork Bulgogi is the same price as the chicken leg and I am wondering if I could change it. So I asked ," sorry can I change the meal to pork Bulgogi" she looked at me like I am an idiot. And said," sorry I already charged you." And I said," yeah but isn't the price is the same?" She then replied rudely saying," next time remember to know what you want to order before you order." I was like...unbelievable! I don't need you to educate me. If it's not okay to change the order, then say sorry we can't change it, which is totally fine. If it's okay to change it, then change it, save your words. Second thing is, she gave me a large milk tea which I did not order. I in fact ordered a small one. But I don't want to interact with her anymore so I just took it and pay for something extra that I don't need. Would go to the dancing chopsticks next time for sure. read more

bought dinner here and yet I was denied a glass of water...like really? don't go here, these guys don't deserve your business.

I went there twice, both gave me very terrible impressions. First time, I got a hot drink with full sugar, that was ridiculous sweet. The second time, mine was milk green tea without any sugar, that tasted nothing but like ice water. In addition, the price compare to those in NYC was much higher with lesser quality. read more

I love Kung fu tea, specifically red bean wow milk. They put in the perfect combination, not too sweet and not saturated with red beans. I also like the lounge area. Feels relaxing and classy. read more

I ordered a taro bubble tea, but i think they gave me sugar water with purple food coloring (Diabetes in a cup?). I see from the comments you can ask for different sugar levels but nobody at register mentioned this option... read more

Best bubble tea in buffalo! Great prices and great atmosphere. Sooo much better than Tea Leaf .

Wanted to try the avocado fries, but when I went tried to order them, they didn't have any. They were very nice about it and gave me back my money and asked if I wanted something else instead. I ordered the golden oolong milk tea with herbal jelly. I ordered it half sweetened because they usually make it really sweet. Overall, my experience was fairly good read more

Great tea and wonderful selection of snacks as well! Cool place to chill with friends or grab a bite and hang out! Very nice interior design and friendly staff. Would recommend to bubble tea drinkers and to people unfamiliar with it as well! read more

As a lifelong resident of Buffalo, I can say it was impossible to find QUALITY bubble tea until the arrival of Kung Fu Tea. In addition to being the most attractive establishment on the University of Buffalo campus, Kung Fu Tea's efficient and professional service coupled with their authentic bubble tea flavors makes this place worth every bit of the 15+ minutes commute to campus. If you have not had Kung Fu Tea, you haven't had bubble tea. Period. read more

I'm in town visiting and I heard they opened a new bubble tea place and I had to stop by!! So I was a bit worried because of the parking but the library parking lot is right next to the location and easy to find! When I went in the place looked like a lounge or a bar, definitely surprised me! I had the oolong milk tea with herbal jelly as recommended to me by the nice cashier, the tea was amazing and the herbal jelly complimented the drink very well. I also ordered the mince pork rice with Taiwanese popcorn chicken! The chicken was crisp and full of flavor, the rice was in a quart but surprisingly filling, the flavor reminded me of home. I spent less than $15 here, I would definitely say that this is the best bubble tea / cafe in WNY right now! read more
