    Coconut Milk Tea
    Natty C.

    This was my first time trying bubble tea. Service could have been better. I asked a question, they seemed annoyed. I went with the Coconut milk tea with bubbles. It was very tasty! I would have preferred it without the balls, it ruined it for me. The balls tasted like gummy candy. I would come back again. They are connected to Bon Chon fried chicken.

    I got a passion fruit slushie and it was soo good! This place was very clean, customer service was A+. I think I'll be treating myself to this every weekend it was soo good. They have a large menu with soo many things you can order. I didn't think to take a picture. But give them I try. I highly recommend. I find it soo interesting how they don't give lids. So first they make the juice, mix it up then a machine grabs the cup and places the plastic cover over the top. It's something to watch while you're there waiting lol.

    KFT was the highlight of my day!! I'm craving another tea just thinking about it. I went in on a Saturday and parking was tough. They have a parking lot in the back so I'm going to try that next time. It's a fun looking shop, tons of seating. A bright and colorful menu greets you by the register and gives you tons of options. Really, teas I had never heard of! The workers are very friendly and move quickly. I decided on a taro milk tea and my friend got the winter melon milk green tea. Both large sizes with bubbles. The total was around 10 bucks. Very fair for quality bubble tea. The taro was delicious, very smooth and almost a thick quality to it. The bubbles were also super fresh. The winter melon tea was soooo good! Such a refreshing choice. Absolutely delicious. I wish there was a location closer to me but I can absolutely see myself taking the trip here to come back. Just really impressive quality flavors. It's also located right next to bonchon!

    I feel like I've been spoiled at the Edison location since there could be only 2 people working but they work through a long line of orders super quick. It could be that they have more equipment there and have been there for more years so that's why their process is more efficient. I was standing at the cash register for around 10 minutes with no one taking my order because they were so backed up and all 3 - 4 employees were working on making the orders. For one of my friend's orders, it's like they just put a pinch of bubbles in her order. I think it's because they were really backed up and didn't want to waste more time making more bubbles so they were not that generous with them. The Taro Milk Tea that my sister got didn't taste like taro, and tasted really off. The bubbles in both of our drinks were too chewy, and some even had hard centers. Despite the chewy bubbles in my Coco Cream Wow Milk Cap, I actually really liked my drink because I have a major sweet tooth and the brown sugar syrup was plenty sweet. The milk cap helped balance the sweetness of the syrup. I'd love to try it at Edison for comparison. I did appreciate that there was parking in the back and that the shop had some fun wall art. There's only one bigger table for a group of 8, so I wouldn't recommend huge groups coming and staying. I've only been to 2 Kung Fu Teas, the Edison one and this one, and I feel like Edison KFT has really refined their system and bubbles. There's a lot of room for improvement for this location, which is why I view it as a bit below average.

    Passion fruit green tea with boba and mango poppers Fun fact: Shaking your tea and waiting till the ice is semi dissolved will 1000% enhance your experience. and check out the BOMB Korean chicken spot (BonChon) that's attached!

    Cup that fell on the floor.

    So, when my mom and I went here today, my mom saw a cup fall to the floor. The cashier picked it up and put it back. He tried to use it for my mom's order and my mom told him not to cuz it tell on the floor. He chuckled and set it to the side. Once our order was done, we saw them put the cup back on the stack. Gross. :/ They blatantly did it without care to who was watching. Otherwise, the drinks are yummy. Just the service is much to be desired.

    This was my first visit to this location. I usually go to Edison but I was at a friends and we were craving bubble teas. When we arrived we had a two people in front of us . We had a very large order 10 or 12 bubbles teas I believe . They handled themselves well considering the large order except for the fact they ran out of Boba just before our last 3 drinks were made. So we had to wait an extra 10min or so for another batch to finish. Appearance wise they could use a little spiffing up but not horrible. All in all I had a decent experience.

    Accessible, spacious, street parking and parking at back of store available. Union finally got its own boba tea house. The store is spacious and clean. Currently they don't have the full menu available yet( milk, yogurt and espresso aren't available yet). There's a lot of different varieties to choose from which is interesting from fruity, milky, tea varieties and the different toppings to go along with it! They had these tea samplings in small paper cups which is great so you can tastes it first before buying the big cup! Overall, it's basically similar tea experience with the other Kung Fu tea houses but now it's in my town then i can just grab one anytime! Keep up the great service ! Keep it fresh, clean and fast! Will absolutely come back!

    Best place for Bubble Tea in Union! Offers a great variety of flavors and customization - even if you've never tried it there's a flavor for everyone! The location right next to bonchon is a great mix (although you can't bring your bonchon into KFT, you can bring your KFT to bonchon if you order to stay in). If you're unsure of what to get, the staff is ready to ask you questions. Great service, free wifi, and wide variety of drinks!

    When you walk in, you can smell the bubbles (or is it the tea?). I listened to one of the reviews and for the first time, instead of ordering my usual black tea or taro or coffee, I decided to try the winter melon at 30% sugar. There's $10 credit card minimum and the server waited patiently as I went back to my car to get cash. The drink was bold and good. It almost makes me doubt it is at 30% sugar but oh well it tastes great! Bubbles were soft chewy sweet and full of edible flavor. I've gotten bubble from other Kung fu shops in Hoboken and even ViVi tea and this was the best tea so far.

    Honey Milk Tea
    Nadia D.

    Best place to get bubble tea in the area!! The Asian cuisine and aesthetics is slowly making their way into this part of town and it's great! Attached to Bon Chon (korean cuisine restaurant next door), Kung Fu Tea has a wide range of teas from milk tea, regular tea, slush, and more. You can pay using the app or with cash/card. There are a good number of seats for groups and single customers. The service is very fast and the employees are quite nice. I have come here on more than one occasion...each visit I try a different tea. This time around I got the Honey Milk Tea which is AMAZING. Another flavor that is also good is the Winter Melon Milk Tea. Definitely try this place out, you won't regret it!

    I had been wanting to try Liv Breads for so long, especially after all of the amazing reviews I had…read moreread and the positive feedback I had heard from family. I finally made it there the other day and was shocked at how substantial the place was. It was no small bakery, but was a full cafe and gourmet shop as well. Though I did not try their savory sandwiches, breads, salads, or spreads at that time, I did purchase some of their sweets. First, the Chocolate Rugelach were some of the best I have had. The delicate, flaky cookies were like little croissants and were ribboned with a rich chocolate spread. Their version also had hints of vanilla, which I really enjoyed. I also got one of their large Chocolate Chip Cookies, which was thin, but packed with gooey bittersweet and semi-sweet chocolate. It also had a light sprinkling of Maldon sea salt on the top. It was super decadent! Liv Breads exceeded my expectations, and I look forward to revisiting to try many more of their items.

    I have never written a negative review before, which probably says something about how upsetting…read morethis experience was for me. My family and I have been regular customers at Liv Breads in Millburn for the past five or six years. I come here almost every day, often morning and evening, for coffee and breakfast, and my husband gets his coffee here literally every single day. We have always enjoyed the food and coffee and have spent a considerable amount of money supporting this bakery over the years. Even a regular black coffee here costs around $5 plus and when you are buying coffee and breakfast this frequently for years, you are clearly a loyal, paying customer. But what happened today genuinely hurt me. After finishing my coffee, I asked for the usual refill. The person serving me insisted that I bring back my used coffee cup before she would give me the refill. She then specifically told me that "a lot of people like you" have been asking for refills, and therefore she needed to see my cup before giving me one. If there is a new policy requiring customers to show their original cup, I have absolutely no problem with the policy. What upset me was the way it was communicated, particularly the phrase "people like you." As a brown-skinned Indian woman, I could not help but wonder what exactly "people like you" meant and whether I would have been spoken to the same way if I looked different. I am not claiming to know what was in anyone's mind, but I can say how the interaction made me feel: singled out, embarrassed and unwelcome. I have lived in the U.S. for years and cannot remember another interaction that made me feel this way. What makes it especially disappointing is that this wasn't an interaction between a business and someone who walked in for the first time. They know us. We have been coming here almost daily for years. Customer loyalty should mean something--not free coffee and not an exemption from reasonable policies, but simply being treated with familiarity, dignity and respect. The food and coffee have always been good, and that is exactly why we kept coming back for so many years. Unfortunately, after today's interaction, I walked away feeling deeply uncomfortable and no longer welcome. After five or six years of supporting this bakery, it genuinely makes me sad to say that I don't plan to return.

Seating is available, but we chose to take it to go. As for the goods, get ready to devour some of the best coffee/desserts you've ever had! I decided not be basic for once and pick something new. And I was not disappointed in the least! - The Cassava Latte "Inspired by the Filipino dessert cake, made with condensed milk and coconut. Contains dairy": Beyond amazing!! Sweet and uniquely flavored, I could go back for this guy day in and day out! It also made me want to try cassava cake because it's just so good. My friend got the ube latte which was okay, but if you want a supremely delicous latte, I'd try this guy out! - Ube Champorado Croissant: Flakey and buttery, with a generous amount of ube filling. Adult and child tested and approved!! Definitely takes your basic croissant to the next level! - Chocolate Kouign Amann: Perfect cheewy, flakey texture with just the right amount of chocolate. Not overwhelmingly sweet. This was probably my favorite of the two! If you haven't yet tried Ayala Coffee, you really should add it to your list! It's worth every penny!

For savory items, we ordered the tocino sausage and spamganisa sandwiches w/ egg added. My boyfriend thought the spamganisa needed some sort of kick like hot sauce, but we both agreed the tocino tasted better: it had a nice balance of sweetness and savoriness. For sweets, we ordered the caramelized honey butter toast and ube champorado croissant. The honey butter toast was aesthetically yummy, but was difficult to cut into and the bread tasted slightly overcooked so it was hard to bite into. However, the ube champorado croissant had a nice crunch and ube filling inside! The service was quick, the area where the cafe is located is nice and the decoration and lighting made the cafe very aesthetically pleasing. However, they do have limited seating, but if you go around the morning on a weekday, there might not be too many people which is nice if you're not into crowds. We would recommend: Tocino sausage sandwich, Ube and Leche Flan latte & Ube champorado croissant We would definitely come back to try out the other drinks and food options!
