when i want boba i come here, its 5 minutes from my house and the staff are always so friendly :)) love this place

Really enjoyed my visit to Gong Cha. The drinks were fresh, flavorful, and made exactly how I wanted. I love the vibes here and easy to talk. The staff were friendly and service was quick even during a busy time. read more

Drinks taste consistent, which I appreciate. But the pearls were a bit too chewy this visit and the cup was filled with more ice than drink. Would still come back, just not out of my way. read more

This is one of the many Gong Cha locations I've tried and this one did not let me down! My girlfriend and I got our drinks super quick, it was suuuuper spacious with a ton of room to sit and relax, and they offered complimentary water. The cups were even Snoopy themed which was absolutely adorable. Loved it! read more

Biggest Gong Cha I've ever seen! Really great bubble tea!!! My girlfriend and I got a quick pick-me-up here: a 30% sugar strawberry iced tea with jellies and a 30% sugar lemon iced tea. Great stuff! Free water. Love it. read more

The drink was great and the bubble waffle was amazing! Not gonna lie, the bubble waffle was hella goooooooooooood!!! They also have soft serve ice cream. Everyday a different flavor. I've been to many Gong Cha's, but this was the best one I have ever had! The staffs were really nice too. Will be back! read more

Food: I always love ordering my Boba tea here, it's probably by far my favorite location to stop by if I'm in the area. I usually get the brown sugar, milk, tea or sometimes I switch it up, but they always make the perfect amount. Service: it's a much younger crowd so they tend to be very nice and make sure that you have everything you need for your drink. Ambiance: it's so cute little café that you can sit down and hang out with your friends or go a little study. It's a newly build interior so you can appreciate the decor. Location accommodation: parking is not really that great as there is some side street parking and a little alleyway that you can possibly park sometimes but again it's very limited. It's right next to the Hanover theater, which has a parking garage right across. read more

I really enjoy the quality of the bubble tea here. Gong Cha is a smaller chain that doesn't cut corners when it comes to quality. My pearl milk tea tasted authentic. Ordering was very easy on the mobile app. I've been converted from Vivi's to Gong Cha! read more

It's a very new store, clean and bright! The service wasn't too bad. However, the store music was way too loud. I couldn't even hear what the staff was saying when tried to order. In addition, I'm not sure if it's because it's new, I don't feel the tea, mocha latte with tapioca in this case, wasn't too authentic. To be fair, I would give it another try in the future when I get a chance and see if the flavor improves! read more

Gong Cha - a woman sitting at a table in a restaurant - Bubble Tea Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

I got service from here through good to go and the bubble teas were so good!!! I also bouhht the matcha waffle cone and savored it's sweet tangy flavor. It's definitely one of my go to places now. And they have it decorated so prettily with the plants now. They were very generous in giving me three teas for the price of one through too good to go. That being said if they tun out rest assured that they are well worth the out of pocket price for their regular orders. read more

I have been visiting regularly Gong Cha in Worcester, MA for the last six months - once every week on Tuesday. Every time I order the same drink - One Large Pearl Milk tea with light ice and 30 % sugar and extra pearls. The drink that was made today was *bad* - it tasted like sweet watered milk (without any flavour of tea), and when I reported it, the people at the counter laughed at me. Their response was we don't make the tea it comes prepared from the factory. Sad experience. read more

Gong Cha - Bubble Tea Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

Strawberry Green Tea with Basil Seed is my favorite in the entire menu. Oolong Milk tea with pudding or herbal jelly is good as well. Locations Natick Mall and Quincy, MA as well as Denver, CO and Chinatown NYC that I been there are consistent. read more

This Gong Cha location is very aesthetically pleasing inside. The prices are fair, and the service was prompt. I got the large dirty brown sugar milk tea ($6.43?) and it was a good size for the price. Lots of tapioca pearls as well. Definitely want to try their strawberry milk tea and other drinks. Street parking, but there's spots right next to the shop. Would come back again if I'm in Worcester! read more

Gong Cha - Dirty Brown Sugar Fresh Milk with Milk Foam - Bubble Tea Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

I frequent Gong Cha often and have been to enough to say that this location is pretty nice! Their staff are always very friendly and just want to make sure you get what you ordered. Service is always fairly quick and it's easy to get in and out. What's nice about this location as well is that it's part of the FiveStars loyalty rewards program, so every now and then you can get a free drink or discounts (speaking from experience since I frequent this location quite often). They do have your typical variety of drinks and also some signature blends that are unique to Gong Cha, just like any other location. They do also offer bubble/egg waffles which can come with toppings or boba in the waffle itself. I've had this a few times, and personally it's not my cup of tea because the batter is just way too sweet and doesn't quite resemble the traditional batter of egg waffles you'd get in Taiwan or Hong Kong. It is a decent sugary snack if you're in need of a pick me up that doesn't involve the endless selection of drink combinations. My favorite drink to get here is the lychee oolong at zero sweetness with coconut jelly. Definitely recommend heading here if you're looking for a refreshing drink! read more

Gong Cha - Menu - Bubble Tea Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

To Tea or not to Tea? That is the question. The establishment is located next to the old movie theater in downtown Worcester for those who can remember but I digress. They have a small selection of flavors/varieties but that will probably change as time goes on. I've ordered the "dirty brown sugar milk tea" and the "taro milk tea slush" and the quality is OK but not worth the wait if the lines are too long. Prices are on-par with other similar places. Street parking is limited and can be difficult to find on normal weekdays which leads to the title. read more

Gong Cha - Inside the establishment. Limited menu selection as you can see on the screen. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

This popular bubble tea chain is less than a year old in worcester. But I'm so glad they opened up a shop in central mass! The store boasts a wide variety of milk teas ranging from regular milk tea to milk foam green tea. Try any of the top 10. They are all great, I mainly go for the 3Js and Dirty Brown Sugar Milk Tea. For a more clean refreshing taste, I would go for the green tea on a hot day. As with many tea shops, you can customize your drinks to less or more sugar, more or less ice for your optimal taste as well. I would say their drinks are on the sweeter side so I usually opt to say 50% less sugar. Their service is quick usually. Parking is limited, I would park across the screen by the graphic mural. read more

Gong Cha - Bubble Tea Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

Best boba in Worcester, hands down! Best texture. Freshest tasting. I've always liked boba, but this place brought it to the next level.

Visiting the in laws from the Bay Area and been craving some boba and this hits the spot. Love my foam topping. I had the dirty brown sugar with foam. My MIL had the green tea with foam and we both licked our cup clean. My FIL had the crème brûlée with pudding. Both bookmarked this place to go back to since their local read more

This is quite literally the worst Gong Cha I've been to. The bubble tea and waffles are good, but the service is terrible. I came in on a Tuesday at 8pm hoping to get a waffle. The store closes at 9pm and was told they "do not want to make my waffle because they already cleaned the machine." They shouldn't say they close at 9pm if they were planning to clean everything by 8pm in hopes of leaving early. The guys that were working also seemed absolutely miserable that they were there. Nonetheless I went 2 days later at 5:30pm (!!!) to get my waffle because I was still craving it and gave them the benefit of the doubt. I kid you not I waited 40 MINUTES for 2 waffles. The guy making it did not want be there and there was no one in the store. When I walked out they didn't even include the toppings I wanted. I walked back in and they said "oh they ran out." They didn't even bother telling me when I was the ONLY person at the store waiting and paid more for my toppings? They could've asked if I wanted something else. I ended up wasting 40 mins on 2 waffles that could have been ready in 10 mins. They need to hire better staff. read more

I am not the type to write a review but if I can give this location zero stars I will! I placed an order online today for the "Creme Brulee Strawberry Latte" The creme brulee in my order was missing. When I brought it to the attention of the store representative instead of making a new drink for me, she had the brilliant idea of opening my already sealed drink pouring some of the drink out, and adding the milk foam to the top. This was disgusting and clearly, she does not know anything about customer service. If this is how they handle business I will not return to Gong Cha again. For the time being, I've lost all interest in this franchise. read more

Amazing love there drinks & service!!! I'm always taken care of my fiancé and I go here all the time we love them!!!!

I love gong cha, every drink has hit the spot , & they're pretty consistent. Staff are quick & location is clean. My go to is the strawberry early grey milk tea & the mango green tea . read more

Not sure how many boba chains are in Worcester, but so glad Gong Cha exists here! It's always one of my top chains, and I can always rely on their quality. My strawberry milk tea with boba here didn't disappoint. read more

I ordered taro slushy boba, and it taste like straight up water. I don't know who made it but dam.....

This is my first time at this location, I was visiting my family from New York. I went the location at southbridge MA. This customer service was not great, they didn't greet when u first walk in. I ordered a passion fruit lemonade with coconut jelly and White pearl. Got my drink on the way home the pearl wasn't coming out of my Straw I didn't understand why so when Home open the top and realize that I got chunky of white pearls in my drink. Which I was very disappointed after $8.83 for my drink. read more

Gong Cha - How I get the Passionfruit Green Tea with white pearl and coconut jelly - Bubble Tea Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

Delicious! Love a bubble tea and boba pearls and they have so many options and variations. I tried the strawberry milk tea with boba and it was delicious!! The boba was the perfect chew and very fresh. My husband tried the brown sugar milk tea and it was also super yummy! They come in two sizes: medium and large. Medium is a good size but definitely get a large if you really want to enjoy! Super clean inside. Greeted by two friendly employees. There's a few parking spots close by but on street parking. It's kinda hidden-- next to the Hanover Theater! Worth the visit! They also do delivery through the major delivery apps or order ahead. Can't wait for my next visit! read more

Delicious bubble tea and one of my go-to bubble tea is the milk tea with half sugar, half ice, and bobas! I've tried the brown sugar boba drink but it was too sweet for me! Highly recommend to any boba lovers! If you're feeling adventurous try the egg custard topping! read more

Gong Cha - Getting my boba fixe - Bubble Tea Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

maybe because i usually have big orders.. literally every time i go, somehow always gets the orders wrong. something is either missing, wrong size, wrong drink... but wether if i order one drink or 100 drinks, if u read everything correctly on the online invoice/double check, you wouldn't have consistent mistakes. i wasn't going to say anything... because it's just a drink at the end of the day.. but all i'm saying is... if ur not going to be 100% consistent, at least have 100% customer service. people make mistakes... but a smile/greeting never hurt nobody (with or without a mask) read more

Gong Cha - Dirty Brown Sugar Milk Tea with Milk Foam and boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

I'm so glad Gong Cha opened up near me because I used to drive all the way to Boston JUST for boba! Their drinks are a little on the sweeter side for me, so I always ask for 50% sugar. I have tried a few different drinks but my favorite is the earl grey milk tea with herbal jelly. I order this the most and I can proudly say that Gong Cha is very consistent with the quality of their drinks! read more

Gong Cha - Strawberry Milk Tea! Delicious! - Bubble Tea Near Me - Worcester, Massachusetts

The customer service here is so bad. I don't know if they are rude in general or just rasist towards Muslims. The girl at the front counter was rolling her eyes at me like I did some kinda of bad thing to her. And afterwards when I went back to them to consult how I didn't get boba pearl she grabbed my drink and just took to the side saying they were out of boba and when I consulted about what she was doing with my drink then she replied oh we have it now. I don't know what to make of this kinda service. Also today was national boba day. I understand they may be tired but she didn't wanna give me any boba pins because I did a pick up order. read more

Love this place. I always get the same thing, though. They're the only bubble tea spot that serves hibiscus green tea, and I love it with the strawberry pearls, 0% sugar. Never disappointed. The staff in Worcester were friendly and attentive and had my order ready and waiting when I arrived. I'll definitely be back! read more

Excellent drinks! Parking is a bit easier on the weekends when traffic in the area is less. No seats inside currently, but the space is clean and well kept. Most customers seemed like they ordered ahead and came in to pick up orders, and it was surprisingly busy. We tried the earl grey 3J milk tea which comes with black boba, herb jelly, and pudding. Very delicious and the earl grey tea flavor really came though. My daughter got the passion fruit yogurt slush with added black boba and loved it. I got hibiscus green tea with white boba and basil seeds and would highly recommend it. I love the "crunchier" white boba over the chewier black boba, and seeing basil seeds as a menu option is nice. They also make bubble waffles, so the inside smells like sweet waffles. read more

This location is really awesome, they have tasty treats & delicious drinks and are always so quick to get customers through the line & they are quick to fulfill the orders too. Friendly employees! So lucky I live right around the corner from them (: read more

I am only a casual bubble tea connoisseur, but I was slightly disappointed. There are only a few milk tea flavors offered, but there is a lot of opportunity for customization. I ordered the brown sugar milk tea and it tasted fine overall, but nothing special. The boba was delicious and chewy, but I love my teas with a mix of boba and popping bubbles and the latter aren't offered here. I was mostly turned off by the wait times; there were so many employees moving back and forth behind the counter but when I walked in, there were ~4 folks ahead of me waiting for their orders but no one was being served. I waited about 25 minutes for a single tea. The upside is that if you do have to wait for your order, the store smells absolutely heavenly because of the waffles. All in all, there are many other bubble tea options in Worcester and I'll likely visit any one of those before I return here. read more

Just very disappointed. Been to tempe arizona were they have some true and good places. Such as dayungs. With that being said this place looks nice but you can almost smell right as you walk in how the tea almost seems like a powder. I got a strawberry milk to try something with flavor from my normal classic milk tea. I got 50% less sugar and It literally had no taste at all of tea and also the bobba was some of the worst it seemed like i was sitting for weeks and getting slimy.very sad and only gave two stars cause the place is beautiful but the quality was terrible. Definitely could do so much better. read more

Gong Cha just became my favorite place. When I visited Gong Cha, it gave me an aesthetic positive vibe, like a nice hangout café type of vibe. I ordered the Brown Sugar Milk Tea and it was DELICIOUS! Mind you it's the first drink I ever had from this place. What I love the most about this place is that the employees are super nice and helpful, they ask you the level of sugar you want in your drink and the amount of ice you want as well. The majority of other places I've been, do not ask these certain questions and I've received drinks that are either too sweet or too bitter. I also like that Gong Cha has a rewarding system. I believe that for every dollar spent, you get 1 point. Around 50 points you can redeem for a small free drink I believe. *Please do further research as I'm not 100% sure about the point system* The only cons about Gong Cha is that parking is very limited, it's super hard to find parking, luckily I was able to find one. I suggest that if you live near downtown or close by to just walk there. I LOVE giveaways! and turns out that Gong Cha has a giveaway but only for the month of July. I really do hope that there will be more giveaways coming but I believe that it's a very good way to get people's attention haha :) I will for sure be coming back to this place to try out other flavors. read more
