I returned to another Gong Cha bubble tea chain which this is located at 38th Street between 5th…read moreand 6th Avenues, Midtown West, Manhattan, NYC. This location is accessible via A train at 42nd Street Port Authority. Upon arriving there was a woman in front of me arguing with the staff persistently haggling the price to be lowered, but to no avail. Woman, no means no! There are other bubble tea businesses within the locale that may appease your needs, but not this particular Gong Cha whom apologized for the inconvenience of the inability to lower the price on the product ordered. As I waited patiently, I took photos of this business' environment. The staff stated the cash register is not working and currently unable to accept either credit or debit cards, but cash only payments. Ergo, I was unable to obtain a sales receipt nor a drink label printed. I wonder if the staff reboot the register or check their internet connection to be offline as the cause of non-functioning O/O/O. [1] Customer service is average. Well... if the staff can lower the price for one customer why not lower it for ALL customers? Surely, why not make my drink order as inclusion for lowering the price, please? Hell no, of course not! The conclusion was ironclad. In the real world, this cannot happen. As I stood on line waiting for this woman to let go and walk away from her argument I had shrunk to my own gnawing thoughts. I took photos of the atmospheric environment. There is a cute signage: "Bubble tea where refreshment meets creativity." The pink metal water bottle is very adorably cute which is something that I would certainly purchase. Peach green tea, medium $7.25 My favorite default topping grass jelly (aka herbal jelly) loeng4 fan2 涼粉 is my standard request for $0.75 which was good, but not served chilled. At 30% sugar level request, it was slightly higher in sugar content. Former NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg would shake his head at me in disbelief with disapproval and disappointment for consuming this excessively sugary drink. The peach green tea was not the cause of the sweetness but a man-made sugar embed measurement error. Nevertheless, this Gong Cha satisfied my bubble tea fix as it is now my addiction - in addition to my other addiction, writing. [1] O/O/O = Out Of Order

The first thing I noticed when I walked in was the owner's smile and friendliness which immediately made me smile too! I got the orange americano and orange matcha shiro and they were both delicious. The interior is also so cute with lots of decorations and plants that make the space feel cozy and neat. Not going to lie, i was a little hesitant to try this place at first because of the negative reviews I saw but I'm pretty sure it's from when there was a different owner. If you are ever in the area, I suggest giving this place a chance!!

We ordered the following drinks: - Multigrain Latte - Orange Coffee - Einspanner Mine was the multigrain latte and it was indeed very grainy and quite sweet.

BUT I will say the inside is very quiet, cute and pleasant, and the worker was very friendly. It's a good study spot for sure.

Tiger Sugar in Flushing has evolved into more than just a bubble tea shop. I walked into a bright,…read moremodern space near the Flushing subway station, and I noticed immediately that this location has expanded into desserts, pastries, cream puffs, and specialty sweets. It is an easy stop whether I am looking for a drink, a snack, or both, and its proximity to public transit makes it one of the more convenient bubble tea options in the neighborhood. The brown sugar fresh milk remains the signature order and the reason many people keep coming back. I tried it and the drink delivered the rich caramelized brown sugar flavor Tiger Sugar became known for, paired with chewy boba and creamy milk that stayed balanced without becoming overwhelmingly sweet. Variations like the brown sugar pudding milk and taro pudding fresh milk offer a slightly different texture while keeping the same rich, dessert like profile that defines the menu. What separates this location from many other bubble tea shops is the dessert selection. I also grabbed a cream puff, which received as much attention as the drinks. The shell was flaky and the filling was generous, making it feel like more than an afterthought. The strawberry cream puff regularly draws attention, while items such as éclairs, cakes, and mango pomelo sago give plenty of reasons to browse the pastry case alongside ordering a drink. Even if I am not specifically looking for bubble tea, the bakery side of the shop provides enough variety to justify a visit. Service moved efficiently, and the space felt designed for quick stops rather than long stays. Whether I stop in for a classic brown sugar milk, a cream puff, or a combination of both, Tiger Sugar offers a reliable mix of drinks and desserts that makes it easy to understand why it remains one of the neighborhood's most popular sweet treat destinations.

Wow I'm amazed that Ten Ren has stood the test of time. This may be the first place I ordered…read morebubble tea 20 yrs ago and I had it again today. Back then, bubble tea was about $3 or so with just a few flavors. I like how they still keep the menu fairly simple with milk teas and slushes. Today I ordered the black sugar oolong tea with boba, 50% sugar and less ice. Flavor was great but I could have skipped the black sugar. Overall, good classic bubble tea.

I'm a bit of a boba tea snob and I hail from South Florida, I'm just here visiting the area. I…read moredidn't expect much from Hartford, CT. I like my boba to be actual tea plus milk and the only sweetness added comes from the boba. So, I was really grateful when I asked about swapping out the powdered milk for liquid milk. They swapped to lactaid, which is my preferred milk for milk tea. They also allowed me to adjust the sweetness and the ice level. I was still skeptical, given the unassuming store front. But they mixed real, actual, brewed tea with the lactaid. Their boba was the perfect size and consistency. I tried their black and jasmine teas and both were perfectly brewed. You'd be surprised at how often people get the jasmine tea wrong, but these guys checked all the boxes. Keep on being your authentic selves, guys!

It's been so long--almost 10 years--since I last visited JoJu and tried their food. And guess what?…read moreIt still tastes just as good as I remembered! Same old location in the heart of Elmhurst, same old interior, and many of the same menu items. I think the only major addition is their rice bowl section. I was on my way to JFK and wanted to grab dinner to go, so I placed my order through their website. The ordering process was super easy. By the time I got through TSA and found a place to sit down and eat, a few hours had already passed, so the rice had cooled down quite a bit. But even then, everything still tasted just like I remembered--and even the rice was delicious! Can you imagine being surrounded by people lining up for overpriced airport food at JFK, while you're sitting there with a bowl of delicious JoJu goodness in front of you? Definitely worth bringing it through security! For sure, JoJu is a must-visit foodie stop whenever you're in New York. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town!

My friend and I ordered the same thing, so we just told him to double the recipe, since there was a long line outside lol Overall, the price is decent too. I paid under $7 for my drink, which is basically unheard of in today's bev scene! I'd come back if there's a super quick line.
