I got a passion fruit slushie and it was soo good! This place was very clean, customer service was A+. I think I'll be treating myself to this every weekend it was soo good. They have a large menu with soo many things you can order. I didn't think to take a picture. But give them I try. I highly recommend. I find it soo interesting how they don't give lids. So first they make the juice, mix it up then a machine grabs the cup and places the plastic cover over the top. It's something to watch while you're there waiting lol. read more

Kung Fu Tea - I threw it away after seeing how it was given 2 me it's unacceptable - Bubble Tea Near Me - Union, New Jersey

Friendly service but it's all about the tea. I've tried the same order twice here months apart which was Taro Milk Green Tea with zero sugar and zero ice. The first time, my drink had very little taro nor green tea flavor and just tasted like watery milk with hard, undercooked boba. Then the second time, the boba was still hard and they added regular amounts of sugar and ice, though my order printed on the sticker on the cup was correct and stated zero for both. I didn't bother posting pix because the quali-tea just isn't there. NOTES/TIPS: **Adjacent space to Bonchon Chicken. **Pretty easy street parking. read more

This was my first time trying bubble tea. Service could have been better. I asked a question, they seemed annoyed. I went with the Coconut milk tea with bubbles. It was very tasty! I would have preferred it without the balls, it ruined it for me. The balls tasted like gummy candy. I would come back again. They are connected to Bon Chon fried chicken. read more

Kung Fu Tea - Coconut Milk Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Union, New Jersey

KFT was the highlight of my day!! I'm craving another tea just thinking about it. I went in on a Saturday and parking was tough. They have a parking lot in the back so I'm going to try that next time. It's a fun looking shop, tons of seating. A bright and colorful menu greets you by the register and gives you tons of options. Really, teas I had never heard of! The workers are very friendly and move quickly. I decided on a taro milk tea and my friend got the winter melon milk green tea. Both large sizes with bubbles. The total was around 10 bucks. Very fair for quality bubble tea. The taro was delicious, very smooth and almost a thick quality to it. The bubbles were also super fresh. The winter melon tea was soooo good! Such a refreshing choice. Absolutely delicious. I wish there was a location closer to me but I can absolutely see myself taking the trip here to come back. Just really impressive quality flavors. It's also located right next to bonchon! read more

Visited this store for the first time after passing by for YEARS. I had spicy chicken from bonchon & desperately needed a beverage. I had questions, the two employees were extremely impatient & borderline rude whilst replying. I requested no ice in a plain tea. The employee put ice in the cup & snarked that she didn't want me to have warm tea. She got upset when I reminded her...no ice. She sealed the cup & slammed the beverage on the counter Her coworker's behavior wasn't any better. $4 for a cup of plain tea? I will continue to pass by. Bon Chon was delicious read more

It has been months since I last had Kung Fu Tea back in January. Once lockdown began, most branches I passed by were closed. Even once the one I frequented in Queens reopened, they took online orders only and frankly, I didn't have time to download their app, sign up etc. just to order a Red Bean Slush. Fast forward to August 2020 and I was hanging around Union, NJ and was surprised to see the Kung Fu Tea. Usually if I want to see chain bubble tea joints I have to head towards NYC or Edison. Yet here was one not too far from me so I went to check it out. Much to my delight, this branch did not require online orders. I went in and ordered. The staff was masked and it gets loud so...it might actually help to either write down your order or order online otherwise you'll wind up yelling at each other (as I did with the cashier). Despite that, I was in and out in 10 minutes so it was fine, just kind of funny. The Red Bean Slush (no sweetener, with bubbles) is my favorite drink at Kung Fu Tea, and I know the flavor well. I am happy to say that this was every bit as good as I remembered. I'm very happy I found this branch and look forward to going again! read more

Ambiance? It's dirty and it smells like raw chicken. Service? It was alright. The drinks? I got the Ube bubble tea. Let's just say the person who made my drink just smeared a teaspoon of ube around the cup, then added ice and milk. There was no other hint of ube or at the very least sweetness. It was straight up milk. Never coming back. read more

I feel like I've been spoiled at the Edison location since there could be only 2 people working but they work through a long line of orders super quick. It could be that they have more equipment there and have been there for more years so that's why their process is more efficient. I was standing at the cash register for around 10 minutes with no one taking my order because they were so backed up and all 3 - 4 employees were working on making the orders. For one of my friend's orders, it's like they just put a pinch of bubbles in her order. I think it's because they were really backed up and didn't want to waste more time making more bubbles so they were not that generous with them. The Taro Milk Tea that my sister got didn't taste like taro, and tasted really off. The bubbles in both of our drinks were too chewy, and some even had hard centers. Despite the chewy bubbles in my Coco Cream Wow Milk Cap, I actually really liked my drink because I have a major sweet tooth and the brown sugar syrup was plenty sweet. The milk cap helped balance the sweetness of the syrup. I'd love to try it at Edison for comparison. I did appreciate that there was parking in the back and that the shop had some fun wall art. There's only one bigger table for a group of 8, so I wouldn't recommend huge groups coming and staying. I've only been to 2 Kung Fu Teas, the Edison one and this one, and I feel like Edison KFT has really refined their system and bubbles. There's a lot of room for improvement for this location, which is why I view it as a bit below average. read more

I'm bananas about bubble tea. The tea I get is okay, and honestly better than I get elsewhere at times. GF got a drink she never had and she really did not like it. It was a tea where chocolate POWDER was used in a cold drink that had extra ice. It made the cocoa very hydrophobic. As in it made her feel like she was swallowing cinnamon, just ice, beans, sugar and powder with a few drops of water lol. I wanted to just get it changed for a basic hot tea. Any normal business would have complied. Who I presumed is the manager claimed that's how it's supposed to be and refused. I didn't chimp out because she had a baby. In a way having a newborn baby at the register during COVID times is a sign of how the place is ran Most likely under staffed and underpay staff as well because I come here regularly in the evenings and they always close 1-2 hours earlier than they post online. Long story short to lose business over what can't be more than $1-$2 worth of tea is an interesting strategy... In summary, standard place for bubble tea, don't expect to be wowed especially when it comes to customer service. The above is NOT the first time I've seen poor customer service here. Used to be an observer like a zoo goer, but then eventually I became the main event! read more

So, when my mom and I went here today, my mom saw a cup fall to the floor. The cashier picked it up and put it back. He tried to use it for my mom's order and my mom told him not to cuz it tell on the floor. He chuckled and set it to the side. Once our order was done, we saw them put the cup back on the stack. Gross. :/ They blatantly did it without care to who was watching. Otherwise, the drinks are yummy. Just the service is much to be desired. read more

Kung Fu Tea - Cup that fell on the floor. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Union, New Jersey

This was my first visit to this location. I usually go to Edison but I was at a friends and we were craving bubble teas. When we arrived we had a two people in front of us . We had a very large order 10 or 12 bubbles teas I believe . They handled themselves well considering the large order except for the fact they ran out of Boba just before our last 3 drinks were made. So we had to wait an extra 10min or so for another batch to finish. Appearance wise they could use a little spiffing up but not horrible. All in all I had a decent experience. read more

Had the oreo slush with extra oreo pieces. Omg it was so tasty and delicious. The only thing that wasn't good is that they seem to have alot of things out of stock and your presented with a chalkboard list of what they don't have when you come in. What I originally wanted was on the out of stock list so I tried something new for me which was the oreo slush. read more

Accessible, spacious, street parking and parking at back of store available. Union finally got its own boba tea house. The store is spacious and clean. Currently they don't have the full menu available yet( milk, yogurt and espresso aren't available yet). There's a lot of different varieties to choose from which is interesting from fruity, milky, tea varieties and the different toppings to go along with it! They had these tea samplings in small paper cups which is great so you can tastes it first before buying the big cup! Overall, it's basically similar tea experience with the other Kung Fu tea houses but now it's in my town then i can just grab one anytime! Keep up the great service ! Keep it fresh, clean and fast! Will absolutely come back! read more

This specific location I highly recommend to NOT order from there. Me and my wife ordered today for a pickup. When we got home, her drink wasn't fully sealed and everything fell out. Mines was sealed wayyyyy too tight to push anything through and it was already cracked at the bottom (didn't notice until we got inside). When I pushed my straw through finally, the whole cup collapsed on itself. Long story short they need to re train the employees on how to properly seal people's drinks. We did get a refund but that's not sufficient enough for me to continue this franchise. No thanks read more

Best place for Bubble Tea in Union! Offers a great variety of flavors and customization - even if you've never tried it there's a flavor for everyone! The location right next to bonchon is a great mix (although you can't bring your bonchon into KFT, you can bring your KFT to bonchon if you order to stay in). If you're unsure of what to get, the staff is ready to ask you questions. Great service, free wifi, and wide variety of drinks! read more

Kung Fu Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Union, New Jersey

We ordered three drinks online through the app. Out of all three, somehow mine was ROYALLY messed up. I ordered a large iced wintermelon green tea, 50% sweet. I got a large HOT BLACK MILK TEA, 50% sweet. On a 90°F day. I don't see a single excuse for this, especially if it was 1) an online order, and 2) the only drink out of three that was wrong. The name sticker had the right order name, so no, someone didn't accidentally put the wrong drink in the wrong bag. I've worked boba in a boba hot spot. There's no excuses. read more

When you walk in, you can smell the bubbles (or is it the tea?). I listened to one of the reviews and for the first time, instead of ordering my usual black tea or taro or coffee, I decided to try the winter melon at 30% sugar. There's $10 credit card minimum and the server waited patiently as I went back to my car to get cash. The drink was bold and good. It almost makes me doubt it is at 30% sugar but oh well it tastes great! Bubbles were soft chewy sweet and full of edible flavor. I've gotten bubble from other Kung fu shops in Hoboken and even ViVi tea and this was the best tea so far. read more

Best place to get bubble tea in the area!! The Asian cuisine and aesthetics is slowly making their way into this part of town and it's great! Attached to Bon Chon (korean cuisine restaurant next door), Kung Fu Tea has a wide range of teas from milk tea, regular tea, slush, and more. You can pay using the app or with cash/card. There are a good number of seats for groups and single customers. The service is very fast and the employees are quite nice. I have come here on more than one occasion...each visit I try a different tea. This time around I got the Honey Milk Tea which is AMAZING. Another flavor that is also good is the Winter Melon Milk Tea. Definitely try this place out, you won't regret it! read more

Cool atmosphere. I loved the decorations on the walls. The only two negative things were that the music was way too loud at the front. It was literally blasting right next to where the employees were taking orders. I could barely hear myself which was kind of annoying. Also, it was a really tight space and when it's busy (which it was when we first arrived) it can get a little overwhelming if you don't like crowds. However, these two things weren't enough to make me remove a star from this review. Parking is pretty easy if you just go around the corner and park in the back. We went on a holiday when most people are out and we still were able to find a spot. Plenty of spaces. The service was quick. There were only two girls taking orders and preparing the drinks, but for the volume they had, they killed it. We were in and out in no more than 15 minutes, probably less. Kudos to them! The tea itself was fantastic! Great flavor and the boba was fresh, sweet, and had a perfectly firm consistency. I'm not sure why there aren't more positive reviews of this place! They say they make their bubbles fresh every two hours and brew their tea every three hours, which is great. It shows they actually care about quality. I got the hot winter melon milk green tea with extra bubbles and my boyfriend got the iced oolong milk tea. We both loved them. This location is pretty far from my house, however I would make the trip out to get this bubble tea again. read more

The cashier is nothing but rude. I was here and learned about that there's an app-download deal to get a free drink. When I asked upon, he said it's only valid on the day 4/30. He said: Urgh did you even check the date? I have been to multiple KF Tea store before but never been treated so unfriendly ever. Nevertheless, I still ordered a drink that I wanted with less sugar, light ice. The drink I got at the end is beyond tolerable sweet. It's impossible to even take a second sip. I either have to throw it away or will have to carry it home to make some adjustment to it.... Worst experience ever. read more

Kung Fu Tea isn't my favorite bubble tea chain, so I already have bias. However, this particular one seemed a little off compared to others. It's a clean location, which I would hope for in a new location. I ordered a milk green tea with herbal jelly, less ice and 30% sugar, my go to order. They made it where it basically tasted like milk with a splash of tea and barely any herbal jelly. I asked them to remake it with more tea, which they did but then they forgot the sugar. I also asked for a spoon so I could eat the herbal jelly alone and they didn't have one. How do you not have utensils even being a beverage shop? I came into knowing I probably wouldn't have a good experience but I was excited to here about a new bubble tea place opening in the area. read more

I love KFT but I am not a fan of this location at all. This was the second time and it was wack as well. I can taste the difference in how they make it and how fresh the bubbles are. I wouldn't go to this location.. the workers need to learn how to keep the KFT standards up but I know this is a somewhat new location. read more

Slow service, I went there at 11:00 in the morning and I was the only customer and they took like 5 minutes to make my one boba order. I also don't like how it cost more to add bubbles:/ but the restaurant overall seemed clean and it was nicely kept. read more

I have to admit, I have never set foot in this particular KFT, my sons come here all the time and bring me my usual "Taro Milk Tea 25% sugar with bubble" I am extremely happy to see a another franchise come into this sleepy township of Union. I drive by all the time and it is usually full of patrons. The bubble tea is reliable and consistent. Once you have had bad bubble tea, you will know what good bubble tea tastes like. I have had better bubble tea, but KFT in Union is pretty good! A welcome franchise to the neighborhood a MUST do while you are here! read more

I'll never use the store again I made an order through the app so I wouldn't have to go into the store due to the whole coronavirus situation when I arrived they told me that as soon as I had put in my order on their app they ran out of bubbles for the bubble tea so I asked them to cancel it they told me I would have to do the cancellation on their app which there's no option for additionally when I open the door to pick up my order I told them I didn't wanna go into the store and the employees there made fun of me for not wanting to step into the store but rather have my order brought to me at the door which they didn't have anyway read more

Happy to see places like Kung Fu Tea and Bonchon (next door) are coming to Union. The area desperately needed some restaurants and retail to bring back some life to the center. Kung Fu Tea is a chain so you get what most chains offer. I think that this place opened relatively recently so they may be getting their efficiency together. There wasn't many people but it took quite a while to get my single drink together. I hope with time they can speed things up because it's nice to be able to grab and go and not be worried about getting your drink quickly on your way to somewhere else. I ordered a herbal jelly milk tea with 30% sugar. In my opinion, it's always better to order less sugar or it's just too sweet. Parking around back is a great feature so you can park and run in. read more

0/5 stars if I could. This was the worst bubble tea I've ever had. I got the taro flavor and it tasted as if the milk was expired. My stomach started to hurt immediately after trying one sip. My boyfriend got the Thai milk tea and it was also very disappointing, it tasted more like coffee and it was not good. Will not be recommending to anyone and definitely will NOT be coming back. read more

out of all the kung fu tea's i have been to in the area (millburn, montclair), this place was definitely the better out of all of them. parking is easy to find and the service is quick and easy. the staff is super friendly and my drink was great . i always go back and forth on the milk teas (hot and cold) but the bubbles at kung fu are always the best - squishy, never hard. definitely a great dessert pair after eating next door at bonchon read more

I can't believe I just wasted money in this place, the bubble tea was the absolute worst I have ever had and I expect better from this reputable chain. The honey black tea was an abomination of basically syrup, it's like they dumped the entire bottle of syrup in one cup. I could not drink it as it was obviously not made properly and was basically a cup of pure sugar syrup. It was run by a bunch of apathetic children who do not know how to make a proper bubble tea nor did they care to learn. On top of that they have a credit minimum of six dollars when their drinks are five dollars. They just exhort money and do not care about their client experience or to train their employees properly. read more

Wouldn't really recommend this location. They're drinks are very disappointing I got the Oreo boba tea. The bubbles was hard asl had to throw it away. I would recommend Kung fu tea in Montclair they're more better. Gong cha In Montclair is good to would definitely recommend. read more

The two young employees were so bad. They didnt fully seal the lids for my milk tea and it spilled all over my car and clothes.
