One of my go-to boba shops if I'm ever in the area shopping. Yi Fang has some of the best quality teas in Boston (in my opinion). Located on Newbury, this place can be super packed depending when you're visiting. They have a wide variety of teas, milk teas, and even hot teas. I can definitely say this is a place that even older people would enjoy since the teas are not too sweet, but you can always adjust to your liking. They have hands down one of the best fruit teas, made with fresh fruit. I love this on a hot summer day as it is super refreshing and so good to have while walking on Newbury. Another favorite of mine is their wintermelon latte with boba. Subtly creamy and sweet, pairs well with the perfectly cooked, chewy boba!! They also offer snacks such as these cute boba filled pastries. I haven't had them but them smell amazing! Be sure to stop by! read more

I came here few times with my friend but never really interest with their drinks. I always want to try their egg pancake but never got the chance. Finally, I ordered the original and custard... each order contained 5 pieces, not worth the prices. Around 6 minutes wait to make it, so it is fresh and hot. read more

I love this place! My favorite bubble tea places of all in Boston. The bubbles are always so fresh and chewy, soft and not hard, and flavorful (not bland). Their teas are very good, fresh and not too strong/bitter or light, and they use fresh dairy and also have non dairy options for anyone who needs non dairy options. I personally like the wintermelon latte (they call it latte here but it's milk tea) with tapioca / bubbles. Their drinks are good both iced and cold. I've had their hot drinks (ginger milk tea, taro milk tea, black milk tea) before which are all good. The menu will list all the bubble milk teas as "lattes" I noticed but it's really milk tea. read more

We came here because of the reviews, but am disappointed to say that it was ok at best. I got the Brown Sugar Matcha Latte iced. I'm not sure exactly how to describe it, but this bubble tea just wasn't satisfying to drink. The bubble texture was also not anywhere near the better ones that I've had. My friends had some other drinks and most of them didn't like the flavors at all. read more

Very generic tasting brown sugar bubble tea and incredibly slow service, especially considering that there wasn't many other people there. I would not recommend the french cocoa bubble tea, which tasted like straight chocolate milk. read more

Gave the Brown Sugar Latte one last try. Still a little disappointed having been to two other locations in LA but Yifang definitely has the softest and chewiest boba. Other people in my party got other drinks and they all enjoyed it. I've accepted that I should go elsewhere for brown sugar boba drinks. read more

Ok boba but overpriced in my opinion. Could be because it's in a more expensive area and have limited customers. Got the Yifang Fruit Tea that was fine and hit the spot after not having boba for a while. There were big pieces of fruit in it as well. Nothing mind blowing. I cannot justify paying about $8 for this after tax+tip. The prices could be high because of the expensive real estate, and maybe they don't get enough walk-ins to offset the cost? They do have other slightly cheaper options for boba too. Service and ambience: friendly and cute store. There weren't many people there at the time. COVID precaution: employees were wearing masks. They need to wipe their iPad screen. read more

So happy that Yi Fang has opened up in Boston! We went during the soft opening on Friday, July 2, and it was busy but the line still moved decently fast. I got the fruit tea and it tasted a bit watered down but I still enjoyed it! My boyfriend got the pineapple green tea and he liked his too. Because it was soft opening, all the drinks were 50% off. This made our drinks pretty cheap, but if I recall correctly, normal prices are not too bad either. As for the quality of the drinks, you can definitely tell that they put a lot of thought into both the ingredients and actually making it. Would highly recommend at least giving it a try, also because they have some drinks that are more unique and you can't find elsewhere! read more

Disclaimer: I am very particular about my brown sugar black tea milk tea, and this milk tea shop didn't cut it. An ideal cup of milk tea for me is creamier and roaster with strong tea and brown sugar smeared down the sides of the cup as advertised. The reality cup I got was a thin flavored sugary milk drink. Although the oolong tea flavor did come through fragrantly, the viscosity of the tea was very thin. The boba balls are also very translucent and low quality in my person opinion. read more

This place is one of my favorites for boba. I love their fruit teas and the boba is always very nicely cooked. The regular milk teas are also good but I do think their fruit teas are the star of the show. There is limited seating in the back but it is cute and secluded if you do get a seat. They use the kiosks to order so human interaction is minimal if you're into that. read more

I'm obsessed with their Strawberry Latte! I've ordered it twice now and it's so refreshing, especially on hot days They also have a variety of teas, milk teas, fruit teas, and boba! Their fluffy egg pancakes are good for a little snack too. You can customize your order in terms of how much ice and sugar you want, and what toppings you'd like. You can order via the kiosk in the store to save time, and the baristas are so nice. Also loved the Winter Melon Latte and the Mango Sago. read more

Only give 3 pancakes instead of 5 on a $10 egg pancakes. Called the store, the bad and curt attitude was beyond frustrating. Their response was just as short and unhelpful and no solution. Seriously, how hard is it to get an order right? Won't be wasting my time or money here again. read more

High quality boba that lives up to its name/reputation. Truly the ingredients tasted so fresh and there was no sense of anything artificial -- and the fact that this difference can be tasted says a lot! One star down because it is expensive though... $7 for a medium cup on average. Prime (but small) location on Newbury St. with steady traffic but they make the drinks incredibly fast. Was disappointed that they ran out of mango for the mango pomelo sago drink when I was there (1 hour until closing) but I still really enjoyed the taro green tea I got. read more

I cannot recommend this place enough. After finding out that there is a location in Stamford, I was thrilled and have been going there ever since. Their service, communication have been fantastic. If you have not tried their signature fruit tea, you must try it. They are delicious! I would give 5 stars if their fruit tea is on par with the flushing locations. Flushing still seems to have more variety of fruits filled up in the tea. Also, the tea quality taste better made by the owners instead of staffs, but given this is a new location, I am sure it will only get better! read more

I loved all of the options this boba tea shop had to offer. I felt like I could customize everything to my liking and I really did love the black milk tea at 70% sugar. It was lightly sweet but the main flavor was still the black tea. I do however wish they had bigger tapioca bubbles as eating those felt like more of a snack - whereas these ones were easily unnoticed. read more

Great bubbles tea here, even though prices are slightly more expensive than other bubble tea spots. I ordered the mango pomelo sago and the peach soda pop, both were great! The sago has a chewier texture than other mango sago which I enjoyed! The store is beautifully decorated as well! Would recommend trying! read more

Very small location with few tables for seating. Bubble tea is overpriced and okay quality

Another amazing boba place on Newbury St. to try out! As you walk in you can smell the aroma of egg pancakes being made. So many drink choices to choose from, but since they're known for fruit tea I went with multi-floral honey mountain tea with boba and custard egg pancakes. They have a minimum charge of $10 for using credit cards. They have small boba, but there is a lot of it. The drink was sweet from the honey and you could also taste the tea flavor that wasn't over-brewed. The egg pancakes were fluffy and the custard inside them was tasty. Nothing overly sweet, but the egg pancakes were a great snack to enjoy with the drink. This place also has a few tables in the back of the store, a perfect nook to get some work done. I'd definitely recommend trying this place out and I hope to be back soon to try out more drinks! read more

Got the Yi Fang Fruit tea and brown sugar pearl latte to go. My Wife really liked the brown sugar latte as it was not too sweet and the small boba was flavorful and still chewy after 40 min drive. Fruit tea was good but not the best I had before. The passion fruit is a bit annoying if not expected but common ingredient for fruit tea. Also menu in store is a bit different on the website. I hope my pic of menu is readable. Also note there is egg pancakes currently. It is seasonal so only in the Fall according to cashier. read more

The best fruit tea I've ever had - very refreshing and an interesting concept. The dragon fruit acts as your natural boba. I also got the custard pancakes - I wish they sold them individually versus having to buy 5 - they tasted okay. read more

This place is Tea-riffic! Cute little shop in the back bay area. Visited recently and love the variety of fresh brewed teas they have to comingle with my choice of toppings. I also love they use real tea and fruit to flavor the drinks--none of the powdery randomness other places might have. I appreciate being able to adjust my ice and sugar preferences. I tried the Yi Fang Fruit Tea with green tea jelly and it was so refreshing and flavorful. read more

excellent bubble tea place with fast service, a calm setting, and delicious fruit teas! read more

Highly recommend for some of the most soft and chewy pearls in Boston! The matcha latte was so tasty and made with quality ingredients. I also enjoyed the egg pancakes that came out shaped like adorable little boba cups. They are made to order so the outer shell remains slightly crispy while the inside oozes out hot molten custard when you bite into it. Wish they had more dairy free milk/creamer options though! read more

Came here briefly with my friend after lunch on a Friday at noon. I ordered the Brown Sugar Pearl Oolong Tea Latte per my friends recommendation. No modifications can be made in terms of sweetness or ice level which was fine with me as I found it to satisfy my boba tea cravings. We had waited until we got back to her apartment before drinking them, which allowed the boba to cool and harden every so slightly giving the preferred chewy texture. Would order more from here again. read more

First time here and I was pleasantly surprised by their fruit teas! They truly have fresh tasting teas. I got the peach fruit tea and it has a refreshing taste. The peach flavor wasn't artificial, and had peach chunks in the drink. It paired nicely with the green tea jelly! The baristas inside were super helpful with giving us recommendations. Inside, there's not too many seats for it to be a good sit down area. Def recommend this spot for bubble tea if you're in the area! read more

I know this tea place from the Philippines, and I was waiting for them to finally open in Boston. My favorite is the Yi Fang signature fruit tea, which comes with pieces of fruits mixed in (I get it with 0% sugar, which I think is perfect - super refreshing!). Only downside is how expensive it is for a medium drink - definitely a treat, but a well-worth one. read more

Known for fruit teas, Yi Fang's simple aesthetics really captures the mood when you first enter. I tried their signature fruit tea and the lemon green tea and really enjoyed both. The pineapple green tea was a disappointment though and wouldn't recommend. Newly added to their menu, I tried the taro pancakes and it was very good though a bit pricey. read more

We came here for the grand opening and waited in line for the buy one get one free. The brown sugar milk tea was standard, not the best. The honey tea really tasted like honey, very sweet can't taste any tea. Overall, 6/10. They weren't bad but maybe just don't get these drinks. Nothing floral about the honey tea. read more

Great boba and great service! Best boba in Boston hands down, can't beat the location either. My go to every time.

Have stopped into Yi Fang a few times and enjoy their drinks. Main reason I gave them 4 stars is because the price point is slightly higher for comparable bubble tea stores in the area. Drinks: 1. Mango pomelo sago (3.5/5) 2. Yi Fang fruit tea (4.5/4) read more

Yi Fang is a fan favorite, I really wish they'd open more locations. They are known for their fruit teas but I find their traditional milk teas just as desirable. I ordered the taro green tea latte, which is green tea mixed with milk poured over a layer of mashed taro. (This is not the same as taro flavored boba which is a pigmented purple.) I picked 30% sweetness which was perfect. There was a lot of ice in this drink, and the ice level was not adjustable. Next time I'd opt for the large. The green tea brown sugar latte had a strong, creamy matcha flavor (which I liked). The ginger tea also offered some needed warmth in the chilly Boston weather. read more

First time trying this place and plan to be back! Tip: if you don't know what to order, try one of their "recommended" orders indicated with the red mark on the wall photo menu. Pros - I had the brown sugar boba matcha latte, and it was DELICIOUS. The tea + real milk was SMOOTH. Tapioca a great consistency, medium sized. You can taste the brown sugar without it being overwhelming. I got it 30% sugar. Will get 0 sugar next time because it is plenty sweet from the brown sugar boba. - A couple little tables for seating if needed. Nothing fancy. - Fast service, standard for boba places. Cons (not dealbreakers personally) - Some drinks like the one I got is not completely customizable. The ice level was fixed for my drink, but turned out to be perfect for me. - A bit pricier maybe due to location on Newbury. read more

Staff here are super friendly and the drinks really shine with their tea flavor. I find that many places have drinks where the tea flavor disappears as soon as toppings or fruits are added. Their fruit tea retains that nice flavor with perfumed fruity-ness balancing it out. The average cost for a drink is around $5-$6 which is on par with boba places these days. read more

The bubble tea here is just alright. I ordered the black tea latte with pearls and wasn't too impressed, especially after spending a little over $7 for a medium and waiting quite a while for my order. The black tea flavor was good and the pearls had a nice chew to them, but I felt like the drink lacked creaminess and was too sweet even after opting for less sugar. I don't think I'll be returning here. read more

I never give poor reviews, but I must say I had an unpleasant surprise getting Taro boba at Yi Fang. I always get Taro and have always loved it so I was pretty excited to order at a new place. However, the taro I got tasted nothing like any others, it was super bland and had a weird texture to it. I'm not sure if that's what it typically tastes like but I didn't love it. I actually ended up throwing away my drink because I couldn't drink it anymore. If I go to Yi Fang again I'll probably get a fruit tea but will pass on the Taro. read more

Wonderful staff and delicious bubble tea made from real ingredients without the typical artificial gunk.

This is my second time to repost this rating. To business owner: if your employees make mistake , you should retrain them instead of requesting Yelp to remove or filter my posting.

I did know realize my drink was missing ice until we left . I would not head back finding parking again just for your reckless employee remaking my drink ????

I really wanted to like this place but was unfortunately disappointed. I ordered the brown sugar black tea latte. The pearls were great--perfectly sweet and chewy. However, the rest of the drink was sour and watery. I'm thinking I maybe should have tried one of their fruit teas instead. read more

Matcha brown sugar pearl latte: 3.5/5 Yi Fang fruit tea: 4.5/5 Yi Fang is a cute new tea house on Newbury St. I love fruit teas so was really looking forward to visiting. I was a bit disappointed that there weren't that many fruit tea options. We got the Yi Fang fruit tea 50% sugar no ice and it was delicious! It has a lot of delicious passion fruit flavor/pulp and seeds. It has the apple and orange slices that need to be dredged out afterwards if desired. My all time favorite fruit tea is from Twinkle Brown Sugar in the SGV -- they chop up the kiwi, strawberry, and mango or pineapple into pieces that can be sipped up with a boba straw. I have yet to find such a place in the Boston area! Anyways, the fruit tea was very solid and I would get it again. The matcha brown sugar pearl latte was pretty disappointing. The pearls were very nice and soft but the latte part was quite grainy -- likely due to failed incorporation of matcha powder? Also, we got 50% sugar and were expecting it to be sweet enough given the big layer of brown sugar pearls, but it was lacking flavor a bit. I would not get this again, but am open to trying another pearl latte since the boba had great texture. read more
