Absolutely insane. I will be back. That soft serve with the chia is Something ELSE. Highly recommend. This is a gem the matcha was delish too and my friend enjoyed her strawberry foam drink. This is the spot trust. Fast service

Matcha NEW Hot Lavender Honey Matcha Latte

Maggie H.

Came back to junbi, left with a mediocre matcha. They just opened with the golden peach series so i got a golden peach blended matcha. It has a very weak matcha flavor nor is there a peach taste. Tasted like a semi sweet matcha slush. But in the bright side, they have these cute miffy cup sleeves now!

Tracy F.

Came all the way from NY to try Junbi and sadly, it did not live up to the hype. I had high hopes for both the drinks and riceball and although the drinks were good, it was not phenomenal. The riceball on the other hand was just terrible. It was mold into a triangle and a seaweed was provided so you can DIY yourself. Once I took the riceball out of the bag, everything fell apart. The rice did not hold together and it was just very messy to eat. I would not recommended this as a to go snack.

One of the best mango Matcha's ! Delicious matcha with an extensive menu and wonderful options to customize. The cutest photo op place and they had a Polaroid wall to add a Polaroid to it that they take of you there. It was so cute and loved the vibes. Very popular and quick service.

A fantastic spot for matcha-based boba drinks. It's a staple in the community. Service is generally pretty fast, and there's plenty of seating (though may be occupied with students doing work). Nice ambience and generally pretty clean. There are also small hires available here, like onigiri and sandwiches. I love the variety of selections here and the creativity of the seasonal drinks. My go-to order is the iced dirty matcha (two shots of espresso) with boba. The blend of flavors from the espresso and matcha are my favorite!

Matcha Cold Strawberry Matcha Latte** Orange Cream drink

Ashley Y.

Refreshing drinks. My husband and I both enjoyed our drinks very much. I got the strawberry matcha and he got the orange drink which tasted like creamsicle. It came with a cute little cup sleeve

Sarah L.

I ended up checking out this spot because they had a collaboration with MIFFY and I really wanted to pick up the MIFFY cup. The service was mediocre as they messed up the milk in my drink but it was still decent. If I'm craving a sweetened matcha drink I would definitely check this place out again but it is a bit more pricier since it's a specialized matcha spot.

Usually character collabs are only in the west coast so I was soo excited to see that there was a Miffy collab on the east coast that's not in New York. I got the orange creamsicle matcha latte and my partner got the blended orange creamsicle. Many times when there's a collab company's won't put in too much thought and use the name to sell product but I could tell there was a lot of thought put in. The offerings were unique and worked well together - never thought orange and matcha could complement each other. Drinks came out pretty fast, a bit pricey but they seemed to use high grade ingredients and use eco friendly packaging.

It was a cold day in Princeton and I loved my warm strawberry matcha drink I asked for it with coconut milk and cold foam and my soul was happy. I could taste what I think was strawberry pulp almost tasted like watermelon. Definitely something different but tasty. The place was cute and the barista was helpful . Thanks Junbi

Pamela L.

I was super excited to see this boba chain hit the East Coast. I ordered the matcha latte with 0% sugar level and no ice. I would have preferred it if there was a choice of a smaller size. Don't know why the drinks are so large these days. I feel like I am forced to pay a higher price for something that only comes in one size. After placing the order, it was ready in less than a minute. In other words, it is probably premade. Interior is old and not that inviting. Service was alright, and so was the drink. Tastes like a watered down matcha latte even though it is made with oat milk. Will not be returning.

Visited here the second time and it was just as good as the first. I really enjoyed my Cold Strawberry Matcha Latte. The perfect blend of strawberry and matcha flavors. My friend ordered the Spiced Hojicha Latte w/ Vanilla Cold Cap but asked for no pumpkin spice. Her drink was stronger on the hojicha flavor and a light espresso flavor at the end. It was a good combo, we never had hojicha latte before... different but good!

Terri C.

Cute hang out bubble tea spot. The tea menu is a little different from your typical boba place. There are a lot of matcha flavored variations. The add-one are a little more unique too, with almond jelly being a stand out. My kids said the bubble tea is really good. The place is pretty spacious, with seating and tables. There are a couple of self serve kiosks where you can order your drinks.

Simon W.

Soft serve is matcha perfect! I've not been able to get past ordering other items on the menu other than the the soft serve. This soft serve has a great matcha flavor that really comes through even with a cold taste. As far as the sweetness level, it's just perfect to complement the matcha. Each serving is also a solid portion leaving you not wanting much more. I'd like to try other items on the menu because there are other items I'd like to try that look just as perfect. They also have a limited selection of popular Doughnut Plant doughnuts as well. They didn't identify them as such in my first visit but I clearly recognized them, given the fact I've had more than my fair share. On my visits, staff service was pleasant with good advice. Seating in the dining area was available and inviting with free WiFi.

Such a cute store! So surprised this popped up in Princeton. I ordered a hot matcha with vanilla syrup and oat milk ($6). Not the best, my drink tasted pretty watered down and more syrup than vanilla, wish they added more matcha powder! I'm thinking because they specialize in cold matcha drinks, this is why. Nevertheless, such a cute atmosphere and this will definitely be a student hotspot come post-COVID. read more

I always like going for their matcha at junbi as they are known for their good quality matcha drinks! When I went to junbi, I got the matcha peach lemonade drink with less sugar and less ice and then walked all around Princeton with the drink - let me say it was really refreshing and the right amount of fruity for me at that time. Junbi is also a great place to study and is a great environment with good ambiance! The aesthetic is more on the light academia side and has modern finishes. In comparison to other boba shops around like fruity yogurt and kungfu tea, the simplicity of the aesthetic and drinks makes, in my opinion, the better boba shop. read more

The staff is amazing - very heart warming and welcoming! The RICEBALLS are ABSOLUTELY TO DIE FOR. My family and I come like every weekend now even though it is a 45 minute drive from us because this place is really good. Our favorite drinks at the moment are - Strawberry Matcha (extra sweet, soy/oat milk, regular ice), Madagascar (extra sweet, coconut milk, regular ice) and the Dirty Matcha (extra sweet, oat milk, regular ice). The Dragonfruit Matcha is very refreshing to try as well! We've also tried the Oolong Lychee Milk Tea and this place is the best I've had so far (Tried at Gong Cha and KFT) but that's also just my opinion so take that with a grain of salt. The location is awesome plenty of parking! Seating is such a nice place to work or relax - also the location is SUPER clean! If I lived any closer I'd come here more often haha. read more

In all honesty. One of the best bubble tea places I've ever had. I would consider it my favorite to be quite honest with you. Staying on just the set up of the establishment, it' draws you in. It's very very nice on the inside and out and makes you feel very welcomed. They have touch screen pads so that you can order without having to go to the front to do so which makes the process easier on everyone. It's clearly a very popular place as both times I've been here there was a massive crowd on both sides of the door and that's immediately let's you know, this is a place to be for bubble tea. The Vanilla ice cream I got was absolutely delicious, and this is coming from someone with a sweet tooth. It's very simple yet very good and in my opinion, a must try. The drink I got if I can remember correctly was the Yuzu Dragonfruit which explains the colors and it tastes exactly how it looks, beautiful. I don't need any other drink on the menu when this is there. The cashiers and etc were fantastic and they do a great job every time. Salud to y'all and merci. I will absolutely be coming back here for my bubble tea, as should you. read more

Matcha isn't good, especially hot matcha. It's bitter. There is no comparison between Junbi's matcha(probably culinary grade) and ceremonial grade matcha from Japan. It's what you can expect from a franchise. The quality of the matcha that they sell does not justify the prices they charge. Is it better than Starbucks? Sure. read more

My friends and I ordered the Lychee Oolong tea, Rose milk tea, and Jasmine milk tea. All three drinks had a weird, hard to describe after taste and the boba tasted old and stale.

Ooika

Best. Matcha. Cafe. Anywhere. Seriously, hands down the best…read morematcha in town and dare I say even in the NY/NJ area. Wow!!! Graduated a few months ago and I already miss Ooika matcha. Their lattes are out of this world. The matcha is milled in house, and the staff and owner are seriously so knowledgeable about the milling and cultivation processes, which is highly appreciated after the shortages and in a way, gentrification of a traditional Japanese practice. Their matcha is perfectly fresh, with a very intense flavor profile that I'd describe as umami, rich, and seaweed like. It tastes amazing! They only use oat milk which in my opinion is the perfect pairing for matcha. Can't recommend enough.

There's only one person making these one at a time. If you're looking for a quick bite, can't say this is it. More efficient system would be great.

Tell me how, by the time I order (which the girl with the hat at the front seemed super uninterested to take), the two drinks were done! So I thought to myself, "Oh wow, that's quick." Well, let me just give you a quick spoiler alert: there's a reason WHY the drinks came out that FAST! The (bleeping) drinks were not even shaken and both tasted horrible! Like, what kind of boba tea barista doesn't even shake the drinks before they give them to you? My guess is she skipped the easy-to-use machine that literally shakes the drinks for you. Save yourself the headache and drive past this one. There might be a Kung Fu Tea that actually cares about your experience and will make your drinks with care. Never going back to this location ever again.

The people that work here are also so nice and very insightful! Offered great recommendations and were extremely patient. The location is clean and cute and cozy to sit and drink your drink. The mango smoothie isn't too sweet or artificial it taste like genuine mango and I love that. 10 out of 10, Take allllll my moneyyyy

It was creamy, fresh, and full of real mango flavor. The concept is unique too -- instead of picking up your order at the counter, someone actually brings it to your table, which makes the experience feel more special than most dessert spots. We also tried the mango pancake. It looked amazing and was beautifully presented, but the taste was just okay and not very sweet. Still, the overall vibe made it a great place to visit.

The shop was very cute and we had some quick service from Bee who told us about what they do there on a monthly basis with different specials as well as a weekly drink. My partner and I each got an iced holy cannoli coffee. It was delicious. Will definitely try to stop by another time and hang out in the shop. They also do cigar nights, which we told some friends about! We will def be back for more delicious coffee!

After having lunch in the Princeton area, illy popped up on my Yelp app. The only other times I've had illy was in San Francisco and at an airport in Rome, Italy. And both times it was memorable. We ordered the Espresso Freddo Shakerato, Caffè Latte, and Cappuccino Viennese. Each one crafted with love and attention. You know it's good coffee when it doesn't leave a nasty coffee and sugary taste in your mouth. I savored each sip. Service here is a standout, super friendly with big smiles. Highly recommend.
