I really liked this tea place! It's spacious and has tables and seating for enjoying in the shop. I ordered at the counter and decided on a Matcha Dirty Boba Milk Tea with almond milk. It was DELICIOUS. Once you mix everything in, including the matcha cheezo topping, it's divine. One of those matchas that I have to pace myself with. It's sweet too so I definitely needed to take breaks but I would absolutely go here again. Service was nice and fast too. read more

I've been meaning to check this spot out for awhile and was finally in the neighborhood one afternoon. I was most intrigued by the Garlic Cheese Bun ($5.95) and Spicy Pork Floss Bagel ($7.95). I have to say that the prices are pretty high, but these are some unique Asian pastries. I enjoyed the garlic cheese bread the most as it was exactly as it sounded with so much flavor. The bread was also so fluffy and still great even a day later. As for the pork floss bagel, this was quite a unique combination of two things a love. The pork floss did have a good kick of spice but it filled the bagel so well, which makes this a great on-the-go snack. The bagel was chewy and dense, but flavor was nice. The pastries are really special here; I just wish they were a tad less expensive, but that's NYC for you. It's worth the splurge every once in awhile. read more

I came here yesterday night and it was honestly such a mess and was completely at the fault of upper management. My friend and I placed our orders a little before 8pm and waited about 30-40min before the monitor notified us that our drinks were ready. It actually wasn't and they were actually still 20 orders behind so my friend and I left for half an hour and came back right before they were closing (9pm). Our drinks still weren't made and at this point I noticed all the remaining customers were getting a bit agitated. It's important to note that there are only TWO workers the entire time making orders. We later learn that those two workers have both been employed here for LESS THAN A WEEK and were working a closing shift alone. That is actually insane and it's no wonder they were struggling to handle the large volume of orders. Not only that, but they had been trying to reach out to their managers and weren't getting any response. This is such a poor way of running a business because not only do your customers end up having a bad experience, but this is actually such a terrible way to treat your employees--but if that's not important to you, you also end up losing revenue since lots of people asked for a refund. I actually commend the two workers for trying the best they could and staying level headed in the face of such stress because if that was ME, I would've quit on the spot because that's so disrespectful. read more

Super yummy pastries. Not much seating inside so more of a grab and go situation. We came on a weekday evening and there was a slight wait.

Lelecha's got an interesting variety of pastries and drinks. Their goods are pricey, with pastries about $6-7 a pop, but that feels par for the course these days with trendy bakeries. I loved the giant sausage roll from the refrigerated section, which uses Taiwanese sausage and is topped with egg salad. While cold sausage wouldn't be my first choice, I actually didn't mind too much. The sweetness worked well with the creamier egg salad on top. The spicy pork jerky and floss bagel was also great, very savory and flavorful with a nice kick. The purple rice milk custard bun was fluffy and chewy, and not too sweet. But the older I get, the more I veer toward savory snacks, so I'm not sure if I'd get this again. The honeydew coconut bliss was highly recommended, and I can see why. There are actual blended pieces of honeydew in the drink, and it's light and refreshing. It was meant to be a slush, but the ice completely disappeared on this 100-degree day. If you're experiencing sticker shock, we swung by near closing time (8:20-ish) on a weekday and a few of their pastries were buy one get one free. read more

I came to Lelecha for a small bite, drawn by its Asian pastries. The menu is phenomenal, and after carefully perusing the shelves for my chosen treat, I decided to try the pork floss bun. The bun was tender (I do love soft breads, more so than the hard, flaky croissant and sourdough iterations you often see in New York). The pork floss had the same smoky, sweet taste as char siu. While I enjoyed it overall, I did find each bite to be a tad dry. I mean, it is pork floss on bread - what else did I expect? Would I get it again? No. Would I come here a second time? Maybe, if I'm in the area. I did like the look of that cream cheese garlic bun. read more

Hmm based on initial impressions I'm not entirely convinced though I only tried one drink so I'm open to trying some other items and updating this review when I do. Storefront is fairly generic though quite open and spacious with seating and standing room for about 20 at curvy metallic bar-height tables. Looks like originally when they opened there were patches of wheat placed around these tables though they've since been removed. Baked goods are placed on shelves along the left side of the store. On the right along the wall there are digital kiosks for ordering however most people went directly up to the counter to order. I didn't notice the digital touch screens until I turned around and faced the front of the store. Seeing other Yelp friends' posts, the baked goods are fairly unique, in terms of flavor profile and technique, they're not your average Chinese bakery buns. That being said they're also more than twice your average Chinese bakery prices, so I did have some sticker shock. However compared to non-Asian bakeries that charge around the same prices or more, I suppose it's in the realm of reality in this mid-town neighborhood. Their custard tarts $6.49 are popular signature bakery item which I may try on my next visit. The black sesame and milk crumble sweet bun $6.79 and salted egg yolk mochi pork floss bun $6.99 intrigued me also. Staff was cordial and helpful when I had questions and my order took about 5 minutes to prepare. For my drink I got the red date ginger milk $5.95. What was great is that they served it steaming hot, but I didn't taste the red date flavor, it was sweetish but not distinguishable. The ginger flavor was also on the light side. I'd probably stick to regular teas and milk tea flavors next time. They carry alt milks too. read more

Checked out what I thought originally was an Asian bakery by Bryant Park, which turns out they also serve boba tea. Drinks you order at the counter, which in the way back of the store. If you want to make a purchase of bakery items, you pick up a tray and pick out whatever they have on display along the left side of the shop. You then bring the tray to the counter where they check you out there. I had their Brown Sugar Dirty Boba Milk Tea ($7), which is their signature drink and it's good. It's just as good as any of the other boba brands. I also tried their Tremella & Pear Herbal Tea ($7), which is a more refreshing drink, but it's served hot. I was a fan of it. For the baked items, I got their Tiramisu Tart ($6.50), which was made really well. They're known for their Dirty Bun ($7.50), which I was indifferent about it. I really liked their Coffee Crumble Loaf ($13). Other things I look forward trying in the future include their Spicy Pork Floss Bagel and Matcha Dirty Bun. read more

I am someone who really likes carbs so as soon as I found out there was a new bakery that opened up that sold unique breads, I knew I had to try it out. I enjoyed everything that I got this day. I do not fully remember the names but I will be back to try more of their pastries in the future. Starting off, the egg tart. It was so crispy and flaky with a nice creamy middle. Then we got a garlic cream cheese bread which was very nice. One thing to be wary about though is that most of the filling is in the middle and can get overpowering. Maybe try to spread it more evenly through the cracks yourself before eating it. Then we got a bread with black rice and cram in the middle. The bread itself was super fluffy and the middle was not too sweet but had a nice chewy texture which my sister and I both enjoyed. And last but not least, we got a bread that that a salted egg mochi with pork floss. It sounded extremely weird and like something that could work or would be gross so we knew we had to try it. Somehow, they made it work perfectly! It was my fiancés favorite out of everything that we picked. This is definitely the top bakery for me currently and I will be back soon to try more items. read more

Overall: 3.6/5 I was browsing their menu when the pastry selection caught my eye, so we stopped by and picked up the matcha taro bun ($7.49) and the salted egg yolk mochi pork bun ($6.99). These buns are soft and huge, great for snacking throughout the day or sharing. The salted egg yolk mochi pork bun was super underwhelming though. The filling to bread ratio was off, there wasn't a lot of pork floss, and I couldn't really taste the salted egg yolk at all. The matcha taro bun on the other hand was delicious. The taro paste was so good and paired really well with the matcha. A great dessert to satisfy my sweet tooth after dinner. read more

Ordered the brown sugar boba and tiramisu tart. The drink was OK. I loved the texture of the boba - chewy and soft. But the standout to me was the tiramisu tart. It was a tiramisu combined with an egg tart, two of my favorite desserts and wow it was so good! Service was also super fast. read more

Originally found in Shanghai, this is one of the many bubble tea chains that have come over from China. I have been to this spot a handful of times, and they are always pretty crowded. The place has a good location, being close enough to Bryant Park but not too close, and far enough from Herald Square that you don't get the K-Town crowd. As expected, the workers here seemed overwhelmed the first time I was here, but they improved on subsequent visits. The first time, I didn't bother with tea and bought a pastry instead. I got the $6.99 Luigi Pistachio "Mini," with a full-sized version for $11.99. There is also a "Mario" version made with walnuts instead of pistachios. The small oat loaf had sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, and pistachios embedded in it and was filled with pistachio cream. The bread had a pillowy, slightly chewy texture, with pistachio and the two seeds adding a bit of texture and some sweetness. There wasn't that much cream inside, but what was there was well-flavored. It was tasty overall, very lightly sweet, as is typical for Asian desserts, and would be a good option if you want a less buttery version of the pistachio croissants you find everywhere. The other times I've been here, I ordered drinks. I'm generally not someone who loves most bubble teas, as I prefer my drinks less sweet and with more tea flavor. The Oolong Breeze I once ordered was a bit above average. It was better than your generic spots like Vivi or Kung Fu, and it smelled nicely fragrant. The other time, I had an Osmanthus Oolong Milk Tea, as it was cold out. The cup was a bit awkward to puncture, but I eventually got into it, and the flavor was alright. I prefer the osmanthus flavor from some other spots, as I found there was a bit too much milk. It was alright overall. This place is pretty solid. It's not the best at anything, but it's above average and certainly beats most spots in the surrounding area. read more

mhmmmm CAKE! Stumbled upon this store as we were strolling around. Stepped inside and saw a lot of tasty looking bread. Brought home a couple and they were all so good. Asian pastries are superior. Always the right amount of sweet. What makes it even better is that you can order boba here! Just a nice bakery with lovely staff. read more

I got their Matcha dirty bun and their Matcha Taro Bun - both were huge especially the Matcha Taro Bun! There is a large table in the middle with seating around so I would say there is plenty of space to sit and enjoy. I got their stuff to go because it seems like most of it is prepackaged in foam containers and plastic bags anyway so figured it will travel well and it did. The Matcha dirty bun is indeed named appropriately; the powder will go everywhere if you aren't careful with your bite. I guess hold your breath when taking a bite to avoid inhaling the matcha lol. The Matcha Taro Bun was huge - definitely couldn't have finished it by myself. The bread was soft and had a nice chew to it. The bread was not too sweet but had a slight natural sweetness due to the raisins and read bean paste throughout the bread. The filling in the middle is the best part - lots of delicious taro! The person at the counter was very helpful and friendly. read more

Lelecha's Valentine's rose series is actually worth trying. The hot rose milk tea was my favorite -- comforting, floral, and not overly sweet. Great on a freezing day. The sparkling rose drink was lighter and had jelly inside, which was fun. Bakery items were solid too. The spicy pork floss bagel had real heat, and the matcha dirty bun was packed with matcha cream and powder (definitely shareable). Black sesame swirl bun is better heated. Nice casual stop for tea and pastries. Weekend crowds are real. read more

There were people sitting/hanging out in the store when I arrived (I think there was some sort of pop up or event happening), but there were not a lot of people in line to order. You get a tray and grab your own breads along the wall, and then can order extra things at the counter when you pay. The breads were all pretty large and on the denser side. The egg tart was good! read more

I have to say if you love Taro this is the bakery for you! Highly recommend their coconut taro drink made with fresh Taro. It was super delicious and they had small taro mochi balls in the drink too. The taro was a bit cold, I asked for a hot drink, also I waited a good 15 min for my drink. Also tried the matcha taro bun, it was very sweet but good, I'd prefer if they made the buns less sweet. Also the buns are massive in size. The staff are very nice and sweet and told me all about their pastries. Also had to try the egg tart and it don't disappoint, very tasty and so soft the egg part. Luckily I came on a Monday morning and not to many people were here. read more

Went there on a Tuesday night and unfortunately, many of their items were sold out. I was able to pick up one plain and one butter caramel egg tarts, and a garlic cheese buns. I also ordered their jasmine breeze, which I didn't particularly liked because it tasted very bland. The tea flavor was not enough for me even though I already requested less ice and there was too much milk. All the other items, I got them to go and tried them the next day. The egg tarts were decent. The crust was flaky and the center was creamy. I honestly couldn't taste too much of a difference between the plain and butter caramel. The size was great and I guess it's because they have to justify the cost but I definitely prefer Portuguese egg tarts over this. To my surprise, I really enjoyed their garlic cheese bun. I reheated it a little, enough for it to be warm but not hot enough to for the cream to completely melt. The bread was soft and pillowy, extremely garlic and fragrant and had just the right about of creaminess and sweetness to balance out the flavors. As for the shop itself, there's a counter in the middle that splits and store in half with some stools for you to sit. The counter was quite dirty and no one was cleaning it up. There's also a lot of people that appears to be working behind the counter but I waited for quite some time to order even though there's only 1 person in front of me. And after she was done ordering, the person working the cashier just stood around and waited awhile before she took my order. They also seemed a little disorganized. My order number on the screen still says it's being prepared when my drink was already done waiting for me to pick it up. Overall, the flavors seem interesting but not enough when there's so much competition in the city. Nothing really stood out and nothing you couldn't find elsewhere. I most likely won't be back. read more

I really enjoyed the unique flavors. This is not an Americanized Chinese tea and pastry bakery. The flavors are different and a real treat. I can't say if this is authentic, but I would assume so. I ordered Red Date Ginger Milk, Tremella & Pear Herbal Tea, Butter Caramel Egg Tart, Blueberry Basque Cheese Tart, Garlic Cheese Bun and a Matcha Dirty Bun. The Butter Caramel Egg Tart was wonderful, and the Blueberry Basque Cheese Tart really satisfied my sweet tooth. The Matcha Dirty Bun is delicious. The savory Garlic Cheese Bun was less to my taste. Highly recommended for a distinctly authentic Chinese bakery with traditional flavors. I think some will love the food and some will not, but no one can say they are Americanized for commercial reasons. The flavors are unique. They are truly playing to their own drummer, and faithful to their traditional cuisine. IMO, a must try, just for the different flavors, even if you don't love everything. Maybe, you will surprise yourself! After all, what is food and life, if not an adventure? read more

I love the spicy pork floss, chicken avocado, and salted egg taro buns! Get these! The egg tart and garlic bun is good as well. I tried one of the drinks but forgot which, it wasn't anything different. Would need to try others to get a better gauge.

There is a bit of seating inside, but the store interior is very small. read more

I visited this bakery because my friend works quite close to them. I got a couple of items from them but only remembered to take pictures of one of them. I think I got the matcha dirty bun? It was fine, it was very bready but also had a strong matcha flavor. I didn't like it as much as I thought I would. I also took home the spicy pork floss bagel, which was very spicy. I also took home a pork floss bun with a mochi and egg inside and it was fine. I steamed the bun when I ate it the next day and the mochi melted into a nice custardy interior. Place is... meh. My friend ordered the same pork floss bun with the mochi and egg but asked them to reheat it. Not sure what happened, maybe my friend should have stayed standing there but they basically reheated it and then left it there until my friend went back to the front to check on it about ten minutes later. It was literally just sitting in the microwave. On the screen, it said that her order was still being prepared and neither of us heard them call her order number. When I paid for my items, they were also very busy and didn't acknowledge me for a few minutes even though I was ready to pay. We went during lunchtime so they were also getting online orders, but it was a little odd that they didn't even say "sorry give me a moment." I was studiously ignored and had to stand and wait like a shmuck for maybe five minutes. read more

This bubble tea and Asian snack place was near my hotel. I kept walking by it, so eventually I needed to try it! The inside is bright and airy. They do a pretty good takeout and delivery business. There's not much seating inside, but there is some public seating outside. They have matcha cakes, egg tarts, and because it was around the holidays, cute holiday baked goods like a Christmas Reindeer Chocolate Bagel!! They were adorable (but pricey.) I ordered the Hot Fuding White Milk Tea because it was so cold and I didn't want anything caffeinated. Service was fine. The milk tea was good. Very accessible via transit. read more

I'm so excited to see the Asian bagel trend making its way to the US. The fillings are rolled inside the bagels, and the texture is fluffier than NY style bagels. I was skeptical about their egg tart (as I've had some of the best back in Hong Kong), but I was so wrong.. IT'S GOING TO BLOW YOUR MIND! Their drinks are surprisingly affordable, and you can add milk mochi (my fave!) as a topping. I asked for minimal sugar, and they were actually lightly sweetened. ＊Butter Caramel Egg Tart 黃油焦糖盒子撻 $5.49 *** Their egg tart boasts a 1:1.8 egg-to-milk ratio: the custard was creamy, and jiggly. The laminated pastry stayed crisp and flaky even without reheating, thanks to how fresh they make them. They even have a tiramisu version that I've been eyeing. ＊Garlic Pretzel Bagel 蒜香鹼水貝果 $5.49 * This low-oil, low-sugar pretzel bagel makes it more guilt-free, and I really wish pretzel bagels were more common here. You can imagine it as a mix between a salty pretzel and a chewy bagel. Heads up: the garlic aroma is INTENSE. You can even smell it through the packaging lol. Bring breath mints. You've been warned. ＊ Spicy Pork Floss Bagel 豬肉脯辣肉鬆貝果 $5.49 *** SPICY ALERT! It was a soft, chewy dough rolled with pork floss, then topped with a crunchy topping. Every bite hit me with heat and savory. I'd get this again. ＊Taro Mochi Black Ceylon 芋泥麻薯紅錫蘭 $6.49 ** My favorite drink! Get this if you love taro and milk mochi. I only wished they offered alternative milk. ＊Supreme Grape Tea Smoothie巨大顆手剝葡萄 (冰沙) $5.89 The grape was decently sweet even though I got it with 30% sugar. It was refreshing and low in calories. ＊Matcha Dirty Boba Milk Tea 抹茶波霸髒髒茶 $6.89 It came with matcha cheese foam, oolong milk tea and brown sugar boba. If you always find brown sugar boba too sweet for your liking, this would be perfect. read more

Cute little cafe, with limited seating. Service is great, some of the bread is out to grab while the tarts are heated behind glass. We got the basque cheese and the tiramisu. The basque cheese was yummy, warm ~ good flaky crust and soft center. The tiramisu was ok, not so much tiramisu flavor, could maybe have soaked in coffee a bit more. Tastes more like a mocha tart. The latte was good, oat milk version was a bit off. Took around 15 min to get drinks. They also had a little scratch and win if you spent more than $20. Got a free magnet, cute place to try once ~ read more

Service: 4.6/5 Food: 3.4/5 Price: $10-$20 Like a bougie Chinese bakery, they take the classics + elevate them. Very futuristic aesthetic with a row of seats. I like that they have model pastries displayed so it doesn't create a bottleneck for first-timers looking at the selection. Ordering + packing process is a little confusing especially since they have a packing counter + self-order kiosks that are a little hidden. What I Ordered: - Garlic Pretzel Bagel: garlic, chewy, def not a bagel texture - Avocado Smoked Chicken Bun: peppery chicken, couldn't taste the avo - Matcha Dirty Bun: one-note, too much matcha, no balance - Luigi Pistachio Loaf: well balanced, not too sweet - Golden Rice Mochi Oolong: slightly floral, rice texture reminds me of those yogurt drinks, mochi was better than I expecte - Honeydew Coconut Bliss: like a melona, creamy, not too heavy, didn't care for the jelly read more

I would stick to eating the egg tarts and chocolate buns/bread here. Tiramisu tart is very good. I like the crunchy chocolate topping of the chocolate bun and the loaf. I wish they put more boba per drink when you order. Tons of tea options though. "Mango Pomelo Sago Cake" is a misnomer - not a cake but just a slice of mango with some yogurt and a sprinkle of pomelo and weird crunchy fake boba (not actual sago). Total ripoff The luigi bread needs a lot more pistachio cream. The ratio is completely off and it would be way better if it had more cream to bread. read more

Stumble upon this bakery/bubble tea place and decided to try since I have seen a lot of people reviewing them on tik tok. I do like the decor of the place. I love the giant bread that spells out New York. It is a bakery/bubble tea place, but we only got their breads and not the drinks so cannot talk about them. But bread wise I do like the variety. They have some unique flavors that you don't see in other Asian bakeries. With that said I do feel that their products are okay. Nothing that really blew my mind comparing to other bakeries. But if you are looking for a quick bite or craving for some Asian pastries I would say give them a try. read more

Lelecha, which has only been open for one year, is a nice addition to the city's bakery scene. This new Chinese bakery brings a unique blend of traditional baked goods and modern beverage trends, offering a diverse and authentic culinary experience for both local residents and Chinese expatriates.  The location is long and narrow and you could place your order either on the wall mounted screens or at the cashier. During my visit, there were many customers and the staff was very busy. They did a very good job with displaying each item and the center decor was unique and appealing. I purchased their Tiramisu and the Pretzel Garlic Bagel. The Tiramisu was created like I prefer it....tight, on the drier side, and was artistically created. The combination of garlic and pretzel made the bagel a good choice and was thoroughly enjoyed. read more

Lelecha is a popular Chinese bakery that now has a location in NYC & is quite popular & rightfully so. I went in to try one of their egg tarts & soon realized they have many different options. I opted for the basque cheesecake egg tart & the tiramisu egg tart. The former was absolutely delicious but the latter was alright at best. It was simply a bit too much going on for me, & the crust was soggy as well. All in all, I would opt for their simple menu items here versus anything else. read more

After brunch, my friends and I were looking for some sort of café with seats, so that we could exchange our Secret Santa gifts. We found Lelecha. It was a Sunday at around 3 PM, and it wasn't too busy at that time. They have limited seating, but it worked out. We also ordered some drinks - I was looking for something caffeine-free since I already had two cups of coffee that day. Apparently, there are only two options: some sort of herbal tea, and a taro milk tea. I went with the taro milk tea with taro balls, and I enjoyed it. I especially liked the taro balls. They had a nice chew to them, and you can't find this at a lot of bubble tea spots. For this drink in particular, you couldn't choose the 30% sweetness level for some reason. It was either unsweet, 50% or 100%. I opted for the unsweet, which was the right move, because it still tasted like there was some sugar in there. Some feedback - they need a new menu system because they use a screen for it, but it flashes between the menu and pictures of drinks, so you have to speed read in order to decide what you want to order. Not sure I'd come back, just because there are so many other bubble tea spots around I'd like to try, the next time I'm in the area. read more

The drinks and food were both above average not perfect. Also the place is a bit chaotic - they mixed up our drinks and then forgot to make my friend's so we waited like half an hour. Both drinks I had were decent but nothing super special - a coconut drink that tasted a bit artificial and a coconut taro drink that was fine but also not that different from what I've had from other places. The dirty bun I had was humongous and dense w enough carbs to feed a family of four. It was tasty esp the chocolate shell and the chocolate stuffing but just.. a lot. I would not go out of my way to go here unless I'm on a carb binge or have the metabolism of a toddler. But fine to stop by if you are in the area and in the mood to try a new place. read more

Buns and tarts looked delicious. The bakery had a few seats in the center but service was a bit slow. I waited a while to check out even though there was only one person in front of me. That said, the butter caramel tart was good - not too sweet, flaky and for a tart, on the larger side. The flavor itself wasn't anything special, but I would still get it again if I was in the area craving an egg tart. I also got the mochi salted egg pork floss bun which is mostly bread and mochi so carb on carb. For the price I probably wouldn't get again as you can barely taste the salted egg or pork floss. read more
