Smells like fresh tea in there I love it! Small space and it gets pretty busy sometimes so it's very cramped when there are people waiting. I think the ones in China had more selections but pretty good overall.

I tried Heytea for the first time when I was in NY but I am not a fan of that drink. I saw the jasmine honeydew drink when I was walking by and get it after dinner. I totally forgot about it, I ended up ordering pistachio cloud jasmine coconut, I still like the jasmine from Molly Tea more. First time ordering through the app. It was quick, it worried me when I always see people outside waiting. I ordered it when I was around the corner and my drink was ready less than 5 min. But I will definitely try Heytea again (mango drink) when Chinatown location open since it is more close to my workplace.

We've tried HEYTEA in Seattle and back in China before, so after moving to the Boston area, we figured why not try this location as well. We ordered delivery, and it took quite a while to arrive, but the packaging was surprisingly good. Even after about an hour, both drinks still arrived cold and in great condition. More importantly, the taste was just as good and consistent as the other HEYTEA locations we've tried. Both drinks had the same quality and flavor we expected, and we definitely preferred them over the local CoCo. We can't really comment on the in-store service or atmosphere since we ordered delivery, but based on the drinks and packaging, it was a solid experience. We'll definitely order from here again.

The drinks are good - worth the hype. Been here few times - if you are gonna visit this store- here are couple of things to keep in mind. The store is packed most the time, order online - the mobile app is good and gives the live status of your drink. I would recommend ordering it online rather than waiting in the line for the kiosk to order a drink.

This place does a fantastic job in getting customers morning to close. It's so popular that there's always a crowd outside. The place itself is very nice looking, clean, quaint, and pack full of workers ready to get customers' orders completed. I went with the coconut mango blue which looked delicious but it was too sweet for me. Inside it smelled very fragrant, light, and clean. Unfortunately, there's no options to change tea sizes, and it came to $7.50 with tax! I'm sure there's a flavor out there which I would like, but I would have to drink too many teas and try all too many iterations

been here a few times now, have gotten a number of teas with different varieties. The quality has been consistent. The teas have been strong and smooth. The fruit flavors in each tea have really paired well with each tea they've chosen. i have finally downloaded the app and it does really save time.

Green grape drink
Charis W.

High quality boba, probably the best in Boston, but one star off for the exorbitant price! Interior is small, standing room only and meant just for pick up, not hanging out. Ordered a green grape drink via Uber eats which was a seamless process.

Mango grapefruit boom
Connie C.

I'm obsessed with the coconut mango boom. Lots of coconut flavor with bits and pieces of sago with chunks of mango in every sip. It is very addicting -- sometimes even one is not enough. It's more of a dessert but it's amazing. I would suggest to pre-order it on the app and then pick up (and your earn points and rewards). It does get busy in the Allston store only because it's very small inside. Depends what you feel like drinking, but it's my favorite on the block.

First time trying Hey Tea. I ordered two of their recommended drinks: Mango Grapefruit Boom: I ordered less ice and less sugar. There were chunks of fresh ripe mango and mango puree. I can taste the coconut milk. There were tapioca. Reminded me of mango sticky rice or the Chinese mango tapioca dessert. Definitely not too sweet. Supreme Matcha Latter: Regular ice and less sugar. The matcha foam on top was really good. A strong matcha flavor overall, no bitterness, pretty smooth overall.

Coconut mango boom Cloud Crisp Grape
Michelle C.

We were craving something sweet after a filling lunch. We chose HeyTea and ordered the following: Coconut mango boom - a drink for those who love coconuts and mangos Cloud Crisp Grape - incredible combination of frozen grape pieces and a fun twist on a grape flavor There is no seating so be prepared to grab the boba and go on a walk with friends while drinking the drink!!! The service is quick in spite of the long line. You order through a kiosk. Each of the drinks are made with care and are standardized in a way I appreciate the quality assurance! The lighting and aesthetics of everything is synchronous!

Coconut Mango Blue
Jackie D.

High quality ingredients with a great blend of flavors intermingled. Had the pleasure of trying the Coconut Mango Blue (from spirulina) which was a refreshing treat. This location is also crazy busy, and the online ordering isn't always made available given the high volume of orders. Like the other HeyTea in the Boston / Newbury area, there's barely enough standing room to order. As such, not really such a thing as ambiance when it's just order and/or pick-up then go. HeyTea in the Bay Area has seating area and a nice interior aesthetic to drink tea while catching up with a friend or work. Taste of drinks is consistent across the board though!

Mango cloud
Kayla L.

Came on a Friday evening 15 mins before closing thinking it will be a shorter wait. I waited for 20 mins which isn't bad but advice to order online if you dont like to wait. Staff were efficient and friendly and their work flow is great as I was observing while waiting. The mango cloud is like drinking a dessert and so fresh and the mix with a bit of the lightly salted cloud foam is perfect. The east coast hey tea seems to have less items on their menu like no mulberry. The location is cozy and clean with good lighting but no space for seating.

Scratch anything I have ever said about the best boba tea place in the past. This! This place is the best! The ordering process is quick and simple, all ingredients are high quality and the best part is, they brew the tea in front of you. I got the Cloud Matcha Latte and Supreme Brown Sugar Bobo Milk (caffeine free). Both were made to perfection. I got my matcha latte with extra matcha, it was creamy and delicious. The cloud foam was fluffy and really pulled everything together. Lastly, I really like their process- from ordering to pick up. Everything is super organized and all happening right in front of the customers. You can order online, at the self ordering kiosk or at the register. Though the space is limited but is enough for standing and waiting for the pickup.

Absolutely love Yi Soon, it's one of my go-to's in the area. An above-average Chinese bakery…read morelocated on the main street. They do orders on Chowbus, but I usually just walk over since I live so close. Spatial description for accessibility: I keep forgetting to take pictures of the shop, it's quite small. Set up like your typical Asian bakery, you'll serve yourself for most items but they do not offer tongs or trays as all of their items are pre-packed. After walking in, the right-hand side has 4 levels of shelving along the span of the entire front window. The closest column usually holds Wife's pastries, taro & coconut buns, essentially most of your sweet buns. The next column usually holds most of your savory buns (hot dog, hot dog scallion, Danish corn & ham, etc. The last column, farthest from the door, holds your cookies & biscuits. Then the wall farthest from the entrance (counter clock-wise from the shelves) has a large fridge; I believe it has 6 levels and it holds most of the simple cakes as well as soy milk. Turning counter clock-wise from the fridge is the cash register; they accept credit cards for purchases over $10 & have tap capabilities. To the left of the register is a display cooler of their fancier desserts; cheese tarts, specialty cakes, etc. If you want anything in there, you'll have to ask the staff to pick it out for you. My personal favourites are the ham & corn bun, hot dog scallion buns, and coffee tiger cake! I love eating them as small meals or snacks while I study.

This is a really good Asian bakery. I like their selection of buns, breads, cakes, and more. They…read morehad a large variety. The cakes in the case were beautiful. You could get slices or a a whole cake. The coconut cream bun was really and good and had a lot of cream inside even though it didn't look like it. Two pastries was only $6.05. Really good deal. I have to go back and try other items since it was so hard to only choose two things. No seating.
