Located right inside the entrance of the Asian Food Market, very bright and happy vibes. Great boba tea, I got the jasmine milk tea with boba. There was a good balance of tea and milk flavor and the boba was a good texture. Service was regular, not particularly efficient but not particularly slow, just normal. read more

Gong Cha - Jasmine milk tea w/ boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Plainsboro, New Jersey

Even though this is inside of a grocery store, this is by far the best bubble tea I've ever had from this chain, service is always incredibly fast, and my favourite part honestly is the level of consistency I've experienced over the years.highly recommend if you're in the area read more

Ever since their new batch of employees, the amount of pearls in the drinks has DECREASED and is EXTREMELY INCONSISTENT. It's gotten to the point where I've stopped purchasing drinks here altogether. For nearly $7 a drink, it's a complete waste of money to receive barely a tablespoon of pearls especially when the original baristas always give a fair and satisfying amount. I'm not the only one who's noticed this issue, as others have complained as well. Please use the same portion sizes the original staff uses, or at least establish a consistent pearl scooping standard and stick to it. read more

So happy Gong Cha also exists outside of NYC. Gong Cha is a bubble tea staple - up there with Coco and Kung Fu Tea. They have a great variety of tea, and the bubbles are always on point. This location is inside the Asian market, and is a takeout place. Staff are nice and knowledgeable. read more

Clean, exceptionally patient staff for those of us who have a hard time navigating our Apps. They are located inside the Asian Food Market. My favorite is the Earl Grey Milk Tea with the 3J's whereas Hubby's is the Dirty Brown Sugar Milk Tea. With my beverage, I can customize the ice amount, sugar level as well as the preferred non-dairy beverage. They offer almond and soy and as per the manager, he stated they will be offering oat milk soon. During these cold days, they also offer hot beverages. They do not offer as many promotions as other boba shops and their reward system is you earn 1 point for every $1 you spend at Gong Cha. Their Rewards Program powered by the FiveStar program which now tells me in advance many points I have left in order to earn my next free drink or if I achieved my free beverage, it shows. The staff members are friendly and very efficient. You can do contactless payment and the staff are all wearing masks. read more

If you are new to boba beverages (bubble tea), this place can be overwhelming because there are so many options. However, if you are a seasoned boba conesseur then this place is literally heaven. Their boba (black tapioca pearls) are always fresh, never over or under cooked. They are sweetened which is perfect for me because I don't get sugary drinks. But if you like your drinks sugary, the boba could send you into a diabetic attack. My order is always the same: Iced Black Tea (no milk); 30% sugar; light ice; black tapioca pearls Everytime they make it perfect and it's so refreshing. It's such a treat everytime. read more

I recently ordered a crème brûlée drink from Gong Cha through a mobile app service, and unfortunately, my experience wasn't the smoothest. When I arrived to pick up my drink, I went to the designated area for the app I ordered through. I waited there for quite some time over 20 minutes without anyone acknowledging me or checking if I needed help. I didn't want to rush the staff, so I patiently waited, assuming my drink was still being prepared. Eventually, I noticed drinks being placed at another pick-up area, and after seeing several orders come and go, I decided to ask about mine. It turned out my drink had been ready for a while and was sitting in the original spot I had checked. It would've been really helpful if someone had asked if I was picking up or offered a quick check, especially since I was clearly waiting for quite some time. When I finally got my drink, it unfortunately didn't live up to expectations. I think there's definitely room to improve the mobile order pick-up process so customers aren't left confused or waiting unnecessarily. Going forward, I'll likely choose Kung Fu Tea instead, as I've had more consistent experiences there with both service and pricing. read more

Drinks are made well and made quickly! Service is very friendly and I also appreciate the order ahead option.

Had a craving for bubble tea and decided to make the drive and try this place out. Personally, I loved the milk tea. Had a great flavor and better than other places I've tried which tend to sometimes taste Powdery. I also had a matcha latte which was just ok. Wasn't my favorite. It's located inside the Asian Food mart. As far as bubble tea places go, nice variety and I thought the drinks were great. However, I waited quite a while for my order. I don't know if I'd drive 20 min again but def worth stopping by if you're in the area or need to pick up groceries as well. read more

Gong Cha - Matcha Tea Latte - Bubble Tea Near Me - Plainsboro, New Jersey

They always seem to be busy, but are relatively quick with their orders. It can be difficult to hear them, with the masks and the plexiglass but that's to be expected. Gong cha never disappoints and I'm glad they opened one up in the Plainsboro area. Just wish they were closer! read more

So happy there is another boba place in Princeton! The location is convenient and the menu has a good variety of drinks to select from. I usually get the brown sugar milk tea, passion fruit green tea, and the earl grey milk tea with the 3J's which has pudding, boba, and grass jelly. The place is always busy but the line moves fast and I don't wait that long for my drinks to be ready! You can sign up for points for free boba in the future. I recommend coming to the place. The service is good and the drinks are delicious! read more

Amazing bubble tea, fast service, and wonderful tapioca pearls! Overall the best bubble tea place in my experience (I've tried many)!

Got some seasonal drink today! [MILK FOAM SESAME LATTE - HOT] - $6 - This was DELICIOUS!!!! It's great for the cold weather. I got mine with 50% sugar and it was PERFECT. Highly recommend! [BROWN SUGAR GINGER MILK TEA] - $5.75 - There are tiny bits and pieces of ginger (I think) on the bottom which I do like. Had this one cold and it was so yummy!! read more

Gong Cha - two cups of bubble tea on a counter - Bubble Tea Near Me - Plainsboro, New Jersey

Yummm, a solid spot to pick up teas or get delivery! Order has always been correct and quick.

So hooked to the brown sugar milk tea with boba. This time I tried their white boba. It's less calories but so chewy. I did not enjoy it as much as I would with the black ones but it's nice to have the boba in it and not make the drink super unhealthy. This store was super crowed. I had to wait for 25 minutes to get this tea and this place is inside an Asian store. read more

Gong Cha - where are my drinks - Bubble Tea Near Me - Plainsboro, New Jersey

Doesn't look like much from my first impression judging by how they stacked their cardboard boxes all over the place. But I like the taste of Gong Cha at other locations, so I decided to try it regardless. I am glad I did. Boba was super delicious. Soft and chewy. And has a great sweet rice flavor. I ordered hot green tea latte. Super hot , burnt my upper lips. Asked for 70% sweetness which was perfect for me as I don't like it too sweet and still can taste the green tea. Great service too. read more

Very busy location. Great service and very good assortment of drinks. We can't go anywhere near here without my kids asking to stop for a bubble tea read more

Truly the best bubble tea I've had! The brown sugar bubbles are amazing and I love the texture and sweetness! I love the milk teas especially the strawberry, mango and brown sugar ones. They're sweet and light and perfect for a hot day or with friends. They have a good point system as well so I would recommend signing up for that too. I always get it with light ice and 70% sugar but I love how you can adjust it to your taste. read more

Gong Cha - 3J's. So good - Bubble Tea Near Me - Plainsboro, New Jersey

New location of Gong Cha boba chain. Quality is better than rival KFT for sure, though the prices here are a bit high. Service is good. The black pearls lack flavor. The custard and herbal jelly is tasty. There's really not much bubble tea competition in the area, so Gong Cha is the best around here right now. read more

I mean every time we order we are happy. Consistently good and we have our go to flavors- Taro, Brown Sugar, Traditional Milk Tea, we like to add pearls, grass jelly and custard. The cookies n cream one is really good too. Love me some boba from Gong Cha read more

I absolutely LOVE this place! This is one of my all-time favorite places to get my bubble tea fix. They are very friendly and always willing to suggest new options. Also, the order is always on point! read more

Okay it's a Gong Cha so you if you like Gong Cha, you'll like this location. The tea is sweet but not way too sweet, the boba is always cooked just right, and the milk foam is delicious. This is my go-to in the Princeton area. It's quite busy because it's literally right inside the supermarket, but I've never experienced longer than a five minute wait. just wanted to shout out the service here though -- they are really, really polite, and when my mom's boba somehow exploded, one employee came out with a mop, helped us clean up everything, and even made my mom a new cup of tea. you don't service like that everywhere, and the fact that this employee went above and beyond despite the shop being so busy was so, so nice. Thanks to that employee and the other folks of this Gong Cha! read more

I love this tea place. However, this time, the tea I ordered 50% sugar tasted like 500%. Even my daughter was: wow, it is really sweet. But still, I am going back. read more
