Well, the one in the Menlo Park mall food court is totally legit! Like the name of the shop, they use real fruit. You can see the staff cutting the mango and by the way, the mango they were cutting looked so juicy. My kids ordered mango diamond slush and mango pineapple smoothie. Both were good. The mango diamond comes with free mango chunks. We added lychee jelly. The mango pineapple does not come with free mango chunks but can be added as a topping for a fee. We ordered this with the mango chunks and rainbow jelly (you can only add 2 toppings). I ordered the coconut milk tea. I really enjoyed it but it was super sweet. It tasted like sweetened coconut milk. I added rainbow jelly which was really good.

I loved that the very friendly barista asked whether we had any allergies, preferred milk, or fruit, tea, and whether we liked Boba. There was an element of surprise, but also the ability to choose some aspects of the purchase. The deal was fantastic and the server was extremely pleasant and had a super positive demeanor. The café is also very cutely decorated, makes you want to spend some time there. We'll definitely be back!

We came in around 9:15 last Friday…read more What we ordered: - Passion Fruit Lemonade with Crystal Pearls - Torched Crème Brûlée Strawberry Boba Milk The passion fruit lemonade tasted so sour/fermented. I only drank 1/4 of it and tried to pawn it off on my husband who is not picky but even he couldn't drink it lol. His strawberry drink was super milky at first but tasted better after we mixed everything together. But having to mix it took away from the crème brûlée because it dissolved into the drink. I wish they premixed the milk and the strawberry sauce and put it in a sip top to actually enjoy the crème brûlée. Service was also notably worse than the other times we visited. The workers were just talking amongst themselves and it felt like a bother when we asked to order with them instead of waiting for the kiosk because there were already others there. Not sure if we would go out of our way to come here again since it has fallen off from our first visit.

We stumbled upon this place randomly while we were leaving the Marshall's plaza. There are a lot of…read moreoptions and some of them pretty unusual. I really like that they had 3 boba options: Brown sugar, Strawberry, and Honey. On their website there seems to be even more but they weren't advertised so maybe they weren't available at the time. The other boba listed on their website are Taro, Black Sesame, Mango, Chrysanthemum, and OneZo Triple. What we ordered: - Passion Fruit Green Tea with Strawberry Boba - Taro Sesame Milk Tea I am a big fan of the strawberry boba and both drinks were pretty good. I would definitely return to try out other things. I noticed that they also have ice cream as well There is a parking lot but it shares it with the other businesses and the apartment complex so it was limited. We snuck in a spot for "future residents". Not sure how much it is monitored but we were fine even though our drinks took a particularly long time. I think there might have been some issues with the order before us. They did apologize for the delay.

As I searched for a bubble tea shop in the area, I found this shop. I thought oh that must be new…read moresince I know that area and have never seen it before. To my surprise this shop is actually in an apartment complex. That's probably why it's a little out of the way and parking can be a concern as it's a private area. The spots near the shop all have signs on them so I am not sure if I was allowed to park there. By the register, I asked if it was okay to park there and they seemed unsure as well but said it should be fine to park and leave within the hour. It may designed in a way where you live in the complex and can just stop in without leaving the property which I have seen for a couple of these newer apartment buildings. The shop itself is fine, clean, small amount of seating. I think this may be the type of shop where I just pick up or get delivery from instead of bringing a big group to hang out for some bubble tea. I had ordered a Sesame milk tea. It was essentially a milk tea but sesame seeds were blended through it. It was gritty kinda like how red bean bobas are but not like sweet bean paste. It had that sesame seeds taste that you get from burger buns with sesame seeds on them. I wasn't sure what I was expecting but I can't say that's what it was. Maybe others like that as it's probably healthier than tapioca balls but I just was not into it. This shop online, prided itself on making their tapioca balls in house. I didn't get them cause I just wanted to try the shop and the balls were all $2+ add ons for whatever drinks I looked at. I didn't dislike coming here but I think if I come back I would order something else, probably something more flavorful

This place is a gem and really deserves to be highlighted! Although it looks like a small shop on…read moreMain Street in Metuchen, it's a booming and popular bubble tea place. Love coming here and seeing people from toddler age to folks with their grandparents. Bubble tea is for all! My husband loves to try the new fruity varieties that get added to the menu. Every few weeks there is a new, unique fruit combination that blows him away. I stick to my tried and true Thai iced tea with boba, and NOWHERE else has been able to compete. The details are what makes this place stand out. If you buy multiple drinks, they place your order in an adorable, reusable purple bag. Also, there is a rewards program. So if you're an avid boba drinker, make sure you sign up. Every few orders you can score a free bite to eat or bubble tea. Since it's a hit spot, this place can get packed at peak times (post work hours, and especially on weekends). So happy to have such a lovely shop in my town. Thanks, Akihi!

This Gong Cha location in Edison, NJ is gargantuan with abundant tables and chairs! It is a clean, well light relaxing atmosphere. I can imagine the table hibernation occupied by patrons lingering for hours as I would with journaling and poetry separately. The atmosphere is decorated with Japanese animation sketches of characters throughout this traditional brick and mortar store. The drink lid also contain animation sketches. As a Asian American woman, I do not have a iota for taken an interest in Asian animation sketches and never did. However, I have a strong predilection for traditional fictional cartoon characters as Hello Kitty, Charlie Brown, Snoopy, or Paddington Bear.

There are two large Japanese beckoning cats maneki-neko 招き猫 at the register which are adorable and beautiful. Customer service is prompt and efficient because I was the sole customer at that moment.

The ice, as usual, entirely melted and my drink became room temperature - this time during my long-haul car ride returning to NYC. The grass jelly is average, somewhat served chilled and paucity for minimal quantity but a nice delight. I strongly believe there is a price discrimination for preferential treatment as New Jersey is significantly lowered price than its neighbor state New York. For $6.50 medium drink it is very reasonable price by the economic standards of stagflation 2026 era. If I live within distance from Edison, New Jersey and have driving skills enabling car ownership I would surely make the occasional trek to this Edison, NJ bubble tea business.
