Im not even a fan of bubble tea and I still love this place. Small selection of food/ pastries/ teas, but everything tastes fresh & quality. And the staff is super nice too. I just wish it wasnt so far away from the Columbia campus.... because the trek up the hill to get there... sometimes Im too tired to go.
Great tiny tea shop with a large variety of teas. You can choose your level of sweetness, as well as any milk. They also have bubble tea if desired that are of good consistency and sweetened to the proper level. Definitely a local gem.
Very good. This is how tea with or without bubbles should taste like. Flavorful and not overly sweet.
Very cute place near Columbia with a lot of boba options and a few nice looking Asian inspired lunch items.
In my opinion...best bubble tea in Manhattan!! Way better than the chain restaurants (Kung Fu, Gong Cha, Vivi, or Coco)Tea is prepared fresh and there are no artificial flavors. The boba are always perfectly cooked. I recommend getting light or less sugar because full sugar is quite sweet here.The food (a few sandwiches) is good too and the pastries arent bad.
The bubble tea is very natural, Taiwan oolong is my favorite flavor. And the strawberry creampuff is not that sweet and tastes really great! But no wifi here.
Really cute bakery with friendly staff members. They have a great selection of teas and drinks and they keep the place very clean.
The tea was very dissapointing and overpriced. Not worth it at all. There are other places you can go to with better prices and service as well.
Enjoyed their rose oolong milk tea with unsweetend boba, brownies were OK, croissant was really good. friendly, quick service
There are so many hidden gems on Broadway, this is one of them, lovely tea options and their chocolate pastries and mousse is to die for.
Best bubble tea I have ever had. may be slightly pricey but totally worth it
Best bubble tea 🧋 in morningside heights and probably the entire UWS
Super friendly staff, amazing teas, solid food, and decent prices considering the whole package
Really tasty tea, glad they have the flavors I like.
Really good croissant! (And people say they also have really good Banh Mi)
Small and cozy cafe. The bubble tea is different that what I was expecting but I liked it.
Decent tea, and good place to do some reading if you can snag a seat.
Small tea shop but wonderful drinks and delicious desserts.
Love love love, my go to for delicious tea and treats.
The odd flavor of cherry blossom matcha was like a lacking cherry milk tea....
Had no bubbles in the morning, what kind of bubble tea spot like this one doesn’t have bubbles, it should always have bubbles, waste of time.
Service is slow, but the boba is pretty good.
Delicious tea with so many varieties!
Their teas are great!
Best milk tea in town!
Tasty food reasonably priced
No wifi

Fun place to hang out!
Great tea!

2022-06-12The staff is so rude. She had customers wait for about five minutes, then finally appeared, but just glared at customers and sighed with a gloomy face. I dont want to pay for this service.

2022-01-22I like their oolong boba and matcha and this cafe is a good place to relax and chill. Their danishes are also pretty good. Try their red velvet cupcakes

2020-03-05Im kind of obsessed with their bubble tea. I LOVE the lavender black and rose black flavors. They dont even need sweetener. Their selection is amazing. So many teas to choose from! Also they have some food and pastries which are good. Service is great.

2019-11-05Good bubble tea place. The tea is tasty and not as sweet/artificial as other places. The sandwiches and pastries are good too. At the same time there arent as many options. One of the long time employees (who wears colored contact lenses) is really unfriendly to customers. There is no Wifi. I was told I couldnt use my punch card before my credit card was even swiped because my order had already been entered into the computer.

2020-02-17Adorable place to grab tea on-the-go on Broadway. Their collection of tea & desserts tastes well but the teas might be slightly overpriced. My all-time favorite is the Mango Black and among the desserts, its most definitely the banana pudding & creme brulee. They have a small cute seating area too, if youd want to hang-in there for a while & enjoy your tea.
