This Gong Cha is conveniently located near the mid point of Washington Street in Hoboken. It's not very large inside, but there are a couple tables for customers to sit and enjoy. Most people grab and go although. We didn't have to wait when visiting on a Sunday afternoon. There was one employee who took our order and prepared both beverages. No complaints...both were prepared correctly and both tasted great. Sign up for their rewards and you'll get coupons at a regular frequency based on your spends. Sometimes $5 off, sometimes a percentage off. Nice location for grabbing a bubble tea! read more

Gong Cha - Strawberry Milk Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

Worst server ever. She would yell at you if you do not make selection right away and then and she's very reluctant to explain properly about my selection. then I ask again she said she already explained everything and then she does not want to repeat. and then I expressed my issue with her. She says you never meet me so you don't know me. I don't think this is how GongCha trained their employees.. I think it's issue of the server. I'm not sure it is beneficial for the owner to keep hiring her because it makes me not buy anything because of her attitude and her comment. Surprise surprise. I was the only customer there read more

The space isn't very inviting.. but the product is good! Definitely pricey for a cup of sugary milk but it hit the spot on a lazy rainy Sunday. read more

So happy there is a reliable bubble tea spot in Hoboken. We came here on a weekday around 8pm and were able to place and receive our order of four milk teas quickly. The drinks tasted just as we would expect. Would recommend coming! read more

Ordered delivery and it was delivered early and order was correct. I ordered the large iced matcha tea (no milk!) with extra bubbles and no sugar, and my boyfriend wanted the large dirty brown sugar milk tea w/milk foam and bubbles, zero sugar added and light ice. Both were excellent!! He said his was the best bubble tea he's ever had! Highly recommend that drink!! The matcha was great quality. Delicious! And I love the extra bubbles! So good!! Prices are fair. We will order from here again. read more

This place used to be amazing, now they can differentiate between green tea, oolong tea and black tea, what happened?

One of my favorite bubble tea brands in the tri-state area. Today, I tried grapefruit ai-yu with white pearls. It was a little too sweet even with 0% sugar but tasted great. The wait time was just under a minute. read more

Located on the main street of Hoboken. Strawberry matcha latte with strawberry boba - their milk is not as good as Boba Guy's but still not too bad. The strawberry boba is a fun consistency - similar to nata de coco (chewy jelly). Dirty brown sugar milk tea with boba - love the salty foam at the top of the drink. Boba isn't warm/chewy as I would have liked, but still pretty ok. Got this at 70% sugar level and still a tad too sweet. I'd go for 50% next time. There's a groupon+ deal where you can get 30% off your purchase. There's also 10% discount for paying with cash read more

I love this boba place and their dirty brown sugar milk tea and Thai milk tea with boba. This location provided quick service but it's very hard to find parking if you are driving there. I get my dirty brown milk tea with light ice, 30% sugar, with plant based milk and I like it! read more

I've ordered here without problems for years. Today I went in at around 5:00 pm and order a drink with less sweet. I've done this millions times, and have always get 30% sweetness. This time, the (new staff i think) get my order with "regular sweetness" I ask why does she get me regular, and she replied because i ordered "less sweet" it means "regular" sweetness level. She said if I want remake she will charge me new drink Im amazed on what type of training she gets to assume less is regular, and then charge customer for her mistakes. I've been to this location so many time, but this will be the last read more

The teas here are excellent. Since it is my first time at Gong Cha, I stuck to the original milk tea. The milk tea did not disappoint, it was great. Will try the creme brûlée tea next time I am here. Also, there is a Kung Fu Tea next door, so you can taste test to see which one you liked best. read more

Went to this location recently and I am obsessed. It's pricy but it's the most authentic I have ever tasted. There are probably ways not to make it so expensive but mine was 9.33. Taro large bubble tea, no ice, no added sugar, almond milk, white pearls, red bean. Excellent quality taro- not too sweet at all. The add ins were also fresh. It was amazing and it was honestly my lunch. I want to say it's expensive and it will limit my visits. But I would be lying. I will just need to learn how to order better. read more

LOVE IT SO MUCH SO GOOD I KEEP COMING. Great boba, quick service, and tucked into a nice corner between a couple other Asian stores. Would recommend. read more

Always a reliable good bubble tea spot in Hoboken. Sometimes they don't fill the hot drinks up all the way though which is kinda annoying . I love getting the pudding topping, the drinks here are always good, the workers are always nice, the place is always clean! I reccomend! read more

We've gotten bubble tea here before and it wasn't bad. But this time, it was pretty bad. I had the strawberry matcha tea with strawberry tapioca. The tea was okay, but the tapioca was terrible. It had a weird texture and taste to it. Guess we'll just go back to Kung Fu Tea across the street (not a great option either, but better than this). read more

Dirty brown sugar milk tea is amazing. The fact that you get to choose the sugar and ice level is a plus.Definitely worth trying. read more

Ordered the strawberry matcha, taro, and lemonade wintermelon with 100% sugar for each. I really liked the taro. I wouldn't say it's the best I've had but I would order it again if I happen to be around the area. The strawberry matcha is unique and the combination of flavors is surprisingly good. Lastly, the lemonade wintermelon - this drink is definitely not for me. It had a weird jelly texture not suitable for people with my kind of taste buds. Will come back for the strawberry matcha on days when I crave. read more

Gong Cha Hoboken has finally opened! The grand opening date kept getting pushed back but the day has come! Come in to get buy one get one free (select) drinks until 1/20. So excited that there is another boba contender in Hoboken :D Boba are fresh and not mushy, chewier than those served at the other two boba places on Washington St. The tea is a little sweeter and less tea-ey at this Gong Cha location that the Manhattan ones seem to be, but not by much. I'd recommend half sweet unless you have a super sweet tooth! Come and support the boba scene in Hoboken! read more

I love Gong Cha. It's one of my favorite boba places. The shops always smell good as soon as you walk in, so you feel like it is a legit tea spot. I'm so happy there is one in Hoboken now! Tried the Earl Grey Milk Tea latte with pearls, grass jelly, and pudding. It was delicious! read more

First time ordering via Uber Eats and from Hoboken location. Used to live near Montclair location and they weren't as busy as this location. I put in order at 4:30pm and didn't arrive until 6:05pm so know for next time a side note to self -sunny spring Sunday is not the best day to order because it will take forever for 3 drinks. The flavors ordered today were all firsts-Panda milk tea includes bubble pearls in the order so a tip there you don't pay extra for the pearl topping and it had white and black pearls to the milk tea, the other new flavor is a twist of taro which is Strawberry Taro with strawberry pearls which ended up tasting like strawberry milk overpowered the taro flavor. Brown sugar matcha latte no ice and no toppings-is not too sweet and the brown sugar plays down the bitterness usually of matcha flavor. I like it!!! Either way I like Gong Cha variety of drinks much better than Kung Fu but unfortunately limited locations only in Jersey and NYC. read more

Fast and tasty! I love that you can pick the sugar and ice levels, and really customize to what you want the flavor to be like. read more

Gong Cha - Milk foam Mango Milk Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

My favorite bubble tea chain that I will always go out of my way to go to no matter what. I was so happy when this local one opened! It's in a convenient part of hoboken and I can always grab some fried chicken or a cheese steak to go with a great boba. For the boba, my favorites are the classic pearl milk tea, or if I have a sweet tooth, the dirty brown sugar milk tea. When it's too hot and I can't handle the milk I'll go for a mango yogurt or mango shake. Other fruity ones I like include the strawberry green tea and the peach oolong with coconut jelly. Def the spot to grab some high quality bubble tea and walk across the waterfront when you're in the area. read more

If I could leave 0 stars I would. This place has to have the worst customer service that I've ever experienced. I placed a pickup order via DoorDash, 5 min later got a notification that it was ready. I sent my boyfriend inside to grab our drinks and he told me it wasn't ready, even though we got a notification saying it was. So he waited, 20 mins pass, 30 mins pass, I call him and ask him what's going on? The male worker behind the counter had him just standing there for almost 40 mins to tell him "oh we don't have pearls" so he had him just standing there instead of telling him. The worker never started the order either. So then I go inside and I tell the worker to cancel and refund the order because it shouldn't take an hour to make 2 drinks, and him and the girl behind the counter are literally ignoring me. Worst place ever. On top of that it was empty on a Sunday night!!!! read more

Got the brown sugar boba with milk foam. My favorite boba for sure. Gong cha never dissapoints. read more

Gong Cha - Bubble Tea Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

Authentic Asian tea house.. they make the best bubble tea in NJ area .. no kidding.. they maintain Strict COVID protocols. This places gets a big Big YAYYYY!! Reasonably priced as they source the most authentic ingredients...there are other tea shops that probably give you same menus for less $ but don't get fooled. Menu option is massive and you get what you pay for I.e delishhhh drink. Check out other healthy tea drinks also with some really cool toppings like aloe, herbal jelly etc.. Taste is consistent irrespective which gong cha you land in as they always maintain the best quality. Me and Gong cha go way back.. I used to get my oolong tea everyday for 3.5 yrs in Singapore from GOng Cha. read more

I've always loved this place but I fell 10x more in love with it after they let me order just as they were closing out. My sister and I were craving their matcha strawberry and dirty brown sugar bubble teas & they literally were so nice and gave me no trouble ordering. The drinks came out perfect too!! Uzi & Jason y'all are my saviors tonight!! Thank youuu. This won't be my last visit for sure. read more

I love getting boba from here, it is sad how they are underrated. But I love their strawberry milk tea a lot and their winter melon with herbal jelly. I would definitely recommend trying their boba read more

This place has been open a few months but I'm a creature of habit and go to Kung Fu tea across the street. But I recently went to Tokyo and noticed there are lines of 20+ people out the door at all the locations at all times of the day at the Gong cha Tokyo locations and decided to give this place a try. No line! (Not out the door anyway). My friend and I both got the Pearl Milk tea, 50% sugar, less ice. The tapioca was super fresh and I agree with the other reviewer that our drinks tasted less "tea"-y. Delicious all the same. I appreciate their late hours and that they're open until 10pm on a Sunday! There was only 1 girl there working and in the few minutes I was there getting my drink there was 6 customers back to back. She did a great job managing her time. I will definitely come back! PS there's free WiFi! read more

Yesterday I tried the Gong Cha Hoboken location. I had the oolong lychee tea with the bubbles and it was a refreshing drink. They have a variety of tea, and slush drinks and a variety of toppings. They can also adjust the ice and sweetness level to you liking. This place is a good place for bubble tea and they have locations located in New York and New Jersey. read more

Horrible branch. They make employees work for free for more than 6 hours and later on ghost them. They also always "looking" to "hire" and make people work for free different days and proceed to ghost them. read more

Another bubble tea spot in Hoboken but strictly focusing on selling bubble tea compared to the other establishments, I normally test any place with taro with 30% sugar with tapioca and was pleased with the result, went back to try their pearl milk tea and would recommend this, they have WiFi and bathroom. They do accept credit card/cash. If you're a college student let them know and sign up to their membership to get free drinks when you spend over $50 there. Not really a place to bring big crowds but enough space for like 4 people max and play cards (they do have board games). Parking and bike parking are available on Washington St. No food for sale here. Enjoy! read more

I usually go to the gong cha in garden state mall cause that's closest to me and for some reason I was really craving gong cha od and I didn't even know they opened one up in Hoboken till I passed by it looking for parking! Super friendly staff and they go into detail with how you would want your drink to be made to fit your taste buds. I went with my go to strawberry green tea with regular ice and 30% sugar and it was made perfectly. They also had a sign on the counter to try their new strawberry pearl and I got that with my drink. Tasted sooo good. My little brother also got the Oreo milk tea that he enjoyed very much. Also if you pay with cash you get a 10% off discount with your order! read more

I've found my go-to bubble tea shop for when I need a fix. Gong Cha is by far the best bubble tea spot in all of Hoboken, and I'm so happy they opened on Washington St. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and pretty quick at making orders. They're very popular and can get slammed at times, but I've never really had to wait long for drinks even when they're busy. You can tell a bubble tea place is good when they can nail down the basics. The milk tea at Kung Fu Tea and Vivi do not compare to Gong Cha, and Gong Cha's taro is on another level. Also, I found out that they freshly brew their tea with tea leaves instead of with powder (you can definitely tell when you drink it). I really appreciate that you can customize your drinks by choosing the sugar level, ice level and milk type. Their toppings are great, and definitely try some of the other toppings (I'm partial to their milk foam and red bean) besides the pearls. The Dirty Brown Sugar Milk Tea with that amazing milk foam is addictive and probably one of the best bubble teas that I've ever had (yes, it really is that good). And I'll be drinking a ton of their mango milk slush over the summer. read more
