Stopped by to grab a drink while in the area. Parking can be difficult as many of the spots don't open up until 7PM on weekdays, and there are a lot of no parking signs nearby. Service was friendly and patient while I decided what to order. They have a few small tables if you choose to chill a while. The Osmanthus Oolong Tea with Herbal Jelly (no ice 25% sugar) had great osmanthus flavor. The herbal jelly is a bit sweet, so make sure you adjust your sweetness level accordingly. They have a variety of desserts if you prefer that or want that. Good spot to hit if you're in the area. read more

We needed a large, last-minute order for a film shoot we were working on nearby. From the moment I arrived, I was treated very kindly by a young man who helped me select a variety of sandwiches to suit everyone's tastes. They prepared 15 orders in no time--fast, yet without sacrificing quality, as the whole crew loved the sandwiches. Not a single one was left! Thanks for saving the day--and lunch--for so many people. Excelente servicio. read more

M Tea is a bit of a walk from the Court Square area, so I probably won't be back anytime soon, but it's a great option if you're nearby. I tried the pineapple passionfruit tea, which was super delicious. They also have some pastries, and claw machine games! read more

Really cute and chic cafe. I walked by here and the claw machines originally caught my eye. The boba here is great and you can control your sugar level and they have alternative milk options as well. I didn't have any dessert but they had an assortment of delicious looking cakes and mochi. read more

M Tea is my favorite bubble tea spot. They always have fresh boba and they use fresh fruit in their teas. My go to is the mango pomelo which always contains ripe, delicious mango. I have never been disappointed by any of their teas that I have tried and they don't just use a bunch of syrups like most other bubble tea shops. A hidden gem in LIC. read more

Cute boba place in LIC. M Tea has a couple of other locations across NYC, and is from the same parent company as Mango Mango. I got the jasmine milk tea and shared a crème brûlée mille crepe cake slice. Everything was great, especially the cake. Super light and sweet + the crunch of the caramelized sugar was amazing. The interior is cute and clean with several tables to sit at. read more

Here for the boba crawl, the staffs were friendly. We told them we were there for the stamps. They have a loyalty card, buy 8 drinks and get one free. We ordered honeydew with boba & fresh ube milk with taro balls, the honeydew is better than the ube milk. There's desserts which includes cake and tiramisu. There's places for you to enjoy your drink and desserts with the claw machines! read more

Came in with friends and was surprised that the owner or manager had their young daughter working the orders. Everyone loved the taro but my brown sugar foam milk was hot at the bottom and cold at the top. Another friend had the rose bubble tea. There was a lot of variety and available seating, the bubbles were soft but I guess if I didn't have the young girl taking my order I would have tried to figure out more options. After having half Thai half taro from Anda Cafe at queens night market, it's hard to compare. read more

Heard a lot of great things about this place but unfortunately I couldn't go to their locations due to the weather. So I ordered in the coco latte with oat milk and it was perfect for the rainy weather felt cozy. Had a sweet tooth and was craving some cake. I was kind of hesitant to order the tiramisu because of the powder usually gets my throat. But, i'm glad I got it - was perfectly made and went well together with my drink. Not overly sweet. Can't wait to try other items from the menu next time!! read more

I can talk about M Tea in two different contexts. The first time I came here was for a Too Good To Go order (app that helps to save food waste) which had great value (see pic). My surprise bag contained 3 cups of tea, two of which I learned were slightly more concentrated and could be watered down and one milk tea. I was also given a small container of boba on the side. Essentially this was a take home DIY boba situation. The teas were also unsweetened which the woman mentioned before giving me the drinks. I was very impressed by the quality of boba and the tea was good as well. Unfortunately the fact that it was unsweetened meant I needed to heat the tea to add sugar myself. I understand why the drinks were left unsweetened since everyone has their own preference but I'll probably ask for sugar syrup on the side in the future. The second time I came was with a friend and we each ordered separate drinks. I tried the red bean milk tea for the first time as a recommendation from the store owner and liked it more than expected. My friend got fruit teas and liked hers as well (pomegranate green tea). The first time I went there it was night time and service was very quick. Unfortunately, the second time we went early so she was in the process of opening the store. We had to wait almost 25 minutes for our drinks since the sugar machine needed time to heat up. This was the reason it couldn't be 5 stars. I'd still come back but would avoid coming in the morning close to opening time for this reason. The quality of the boba and the drinks were very good and it's definitely worth coming here. It does look like it's usually run by one person so things may take some time depending on how busy it is. Also, they do have a location specific loyalty card so cash in on that if you plan to return (I'm always on the lookout for deals!). If you're up for some boba for the week I also highly recommend the Too Good To Go order if you're in the area around 9pm. read more

TLDR: if you like boba and sweets, this is your spot! Ordered the creme brûlée milk tea with oat milk! I was excited that they offered oat milk because many boba shops do not offer non-dairy alternatives to milk. It wasn't so much of a creme brûlée in that there was any burnt sugar, but there was a light, sweet custard smeared at the bottom of drink. I scraped off the custard from the sides of my drink and that was a mistake; all of the custard floated to the top and it was difficult to enjoy together. Don't be like me! Just drink normally or try to get some custard as you're drinking. I ordered my didn't at 25% because I find that drinks are typically too sweet for me and I figured that the custard would sweeten it up. But I would actually order it sweeter because it was not as sweet as I thought! Also ordered a slice of cake - the lavender chestnut and earl grey cake. I enjoyed the flavors of lavender and earl grey, but once I finished the chestnut filling, I found the actual cake to be quite tough. The light frosting somewhat made up for it. Perhaps next time I'll leave it at room temperature longer. Can't wait to come back! read more

Only came here once because I was in the area and really wanted a tea. I tried their peach mochi and it was soooo delicious. One of the best mochi I've ever had. Was so soft and light, and the peach filling was delicious and not overly sweet. I would go back just for the mochi. They also have other little treats and desserts on display. The decor is super cute. Ample amount of tables and seating. The menu of drinks was pretty extensive and it was hard for me to decide. I got two drinks - the mango pomelo and the ube taro milk tea. I thought both were really good. Not overly sweet. There was actual fruit in the drink which was refreshing. The service was quick and friendly. When ordering, the cashier knew I was struggling to make a decision and had informed me that the ube taro drink I was ordering was not really sweet or flavorful, if I wanted to try something else. I did appreciate that suggestion, instead of potentially just letting me buy a drink I wouldn't like. Personally, I don't like my drinks too sweet so I did enjoy it and was able to taste the actual ube and taro throughout the drink. Overall, I would definitely come back when I'm in the area. read more

This place popped up pretty recently in the LIC area and had not noticed it until a week or so ago. Another boba tea place in the area, but has some really nice desserts to set it apart from the competition. We have been here a few times but worth of mention were the ube milk tea and the peach lychee cake. The ube milk tea with added taro bubbles hit the spot, only gripe was I wish there was more ube in it because it was so tasty. The peach lychee cake was very decadent and had a nice fluffy texture. Big fan of the desserts here as I'm sure ill be back to try the rest! read more

M tea is right across the climbing gym that I go to so I have already been here a few times! I was craving for something sweet and creamy that day so I decided to get the brûlée bubble tea. I usually get 75% sugar and less ice for my bubble tea and it's normally perfect but it's unfortunately not sweet enough that day. I think the "brûlée" part (which is the yellowish custard on the side of the cup) is usually sweetened but it tasted a little bland that day. I came here 30min before it was closing that day so maybe that's why it was a little off? Even though the bubble tea that I got on that day was not perfect, I will probably give it another try just because I've tried different bubble teas here in the past and they were all very good. read more

I honestly haven't come to visit this store in person. But i ordered a lot on UberEat to my house and my workplace. I just want to say thank you so much for always do the orders correctly cause im a picky person lol and thank you for always giving me an extra cup of ice whenever you saw my name. I really appreciate it. I forgot to have a picture of it. Im not far away and hope will visit you guys one day read more

Ordered the dessert to take home and they were packed really well. The store was quiet when I was there but the desserts were super tasty :) read more

During COVID-19 as of Jan 2022: Whenever I'm in this particular area of LIC, I usually opt into visiting M Tea. It went through a business change from 2019 where it previously sold and made bubble tea and delicious tong sui which they no longer do. As of 2021, they sell a vast menu of bubble tea flavors from fruit teas, milk teas, and slush drinks and, additionally, they make in house modern Asian pastry desserts like mini cakes with lychee and dragon fruit. As a bubble tea and dessert enthusiast, I recommend other bubble tea drinkers to try their drinks. With a variety of options, there is something for everyone to try and possibly new flavors to explore. My go-to's personally are their yakult drinks with grapefruit or lemon. Prices are comparable to neighboring businesses. What makes me come back to this establishment is the kind customer service, the ambience, and the desserts that they make. For me, the desserts really stand out from the competition. It is also not a big chain which, for me, is usually why I go to certain tea shops and would rather support small, local businesses. Because of the location, I've always come here on slow days where I was the only customer so the wait time was quick. I also adore the lush pink velvet chairs, marble tables, and gold accents in this cafe! I feel like the interior is very similar to ones in Asia, particularly in East and SE Asia! Accepts cash, card, and Applepay. Masks and social distancing inside. Bathroom available. Indoor dining and take out available. Don't forget to get a stamp card! Drink up! read more

Stopped by since I was in the area and a friend recommended this place to me! I got the Jumbo Fruit Tea with 50% sugar. It was super cold that day so I asked for less ice. The staff member said that technically she wasn't able to change the ice level for this drink, she would try her best to anyways which I appreciate! The drink was very refreshing and filled with fresh fruits like watermelon, pineapple, and passion fruit. 50% sweetness was the perfect level of sweetness for me! Sometimes, I order 50% sweetness at other shops and it's still too sweet for me. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area! read more

I really like this tea place. I had a hot peach tea with bubbles and cheese foam last time that was delicious once it cooled down, and the mango pomelo on the second time. I wish they had a bathroom, and a their prices are a bit high. I was surprised when I saw the mango drink came out to over $8, but I still bought it. I probably won't again, just due to the price. I would buy the other drink again, I remember it being more reasonable. Overall it's a nice a tasty and fresh spot! read more

Such a cute place with great drinks! Ordered the ube milk tea with taro bubbles and the brown sugar milk tea. The ube was delicious and creamy, but the milk was off-putting. I wish the drink had more flavor. On the flip side, the brown sugar milk tea was very sweet but I really enjoyed the taste. Staff is friendly and the place is so clean. Check out their deals for boba and fruit teas on Wednesdays! read more

I really liked the decor on this cute tea place, but they still need to make alot of improvements with their customer service and atmosphere. I was planning to sit there and drink my tea but I honestly didnt get a good vibe. I wanted to use the restroom and they said it wasnt working, also there was no music in the background. I dont understand how some people want to grow their business without paying attention to their Customers Needs. read more

I had no idea this place was open. It was previously another bubble tea shop, and i am glad another business owner decided to the rescue it versus leaving it empty for months. This part of LIC is in desperate need of more businesses so the residents and people in the area can have more options. I 'm familiar with their other location in Queens and didn't realize this is their second store. They have a nice menu with a variety of items. I got the brown sugar boba with milk (classic of course), and the crème brulee drinks. They were both very good and the tapioca was cooked all the way so it was nice and soft to chew on. No hard center (thank goodness). The atmosphere inside the story is very nice and relaxing. I liked it a lot. This place is so close to the F train and the Queensboro Plaza subway hub. I'll definitely be coming back for my sweet tooth cravings when i need a good cold beverage. I'm going to try the mango smoothie and some of their treats next. Come in and support this place. I am sending them positive vibes for being so brave during the pandemic. Hope they stick around for awhile. read more

i order from here all the time ! so good ! not the best bubble tea but it will do ! prices aren't bad too

Very cute cafe with cute decorations and a lot of cute dessert selections as well. The boba is soft and the tea is really good as well. The cakes are pricy but are very unique in flavor as well. The cake is more mousse cake selections, so it's a nice thicker jelly texture that isn't heavy. Each slice is on the pricy side for the slice size. It's definatly worth the try! read more

Had it 3x, different flavors as it's close to my apt and everytime it had little to No flavor. Just tasted like steamed milk (brown sugar hot tea, and crème brûlée). Also bubbles were stuck together and like plastic. Gong cha is way better! read more

New boba joint in the area! Opening special $5 off$10 purchase: an amazing deal. Their mango pomelo sago drink was everything i wanted it to be and more; it included agar jelly boba and it was so satisfying. Their brown sugar milk foam bobo drink was also good, they cooked their tapioca perfectly chewy. Looks like they've got a bunch of cute selection of drinks and cakes too. Two small tables for indoor dining if you'd like. Go check them out! welcome to the neighborhood yall! read more

All of the fruit drinks I've gotten here have been incredible AND made with real fruit! My favorite is probably the mango pomelo boba. I love the extra chewy coconut jellos and the fact that it has real chunks of blended mango in it! My boyfriend got the ube taro milk tea which has fresh balls of soft taro. I've also gotten the golden kiwi, as well as the purple grape with cheese foam, both excellent and again, made with fresh fruit! The grape in particular is the best I've had out of the many boba spots I've frequented throughout the years. Also, the desserts are exceptional. I've had the passion fruit coconut chocolate bomb and several of the sliced cakes. All the cakes I've had have been delicate, light chiffon cakes and are not too sweet, which makes indulging even more guilt-free! The passion fruit chocolate bomb is BOMB...fresh passion fruit with the seeds and all and quality chocolate. Thank you for making such high quality drinks and desserts! I'll definitely be taking my boba-loving friends and family here whenever they come visit! read more

super cute place! Stopped here on our way through this area, looking for a little treat. Boba was decently priced, a little on the expensive side, but there were actual fruit chunks IN the tea, which was interesting! I had a peach yuzu tea and my friend had the pomegranate green tea, both 50% sugar and ice. Decor was cute and service was also nice. read more

I came here on their opening day because they were having a promotion where it was $5 off $10 plus a free water bottle. I absolutely love their flushing location with the pink hot air balloons! This location is a little different in the sense that it's mostly meant to be a grab and go bubble tea place. It's very small and other than the cute neon sign, doesn't have much going on. They furniture and decor is still in the pink M Tea theme! The location is a 10 min walk from Queensboro Plaza. It's an odd location for a bubble tea place because not much is around other than apartment complexes. Service was good. The girls at the front helped me make a decision on what to order because I was after their pink peach tea. I went with the mango fruit tea with boba. My cashier recommended the cheese foam so I got that too. Both cost an extra .50. It was ok. The mango flavor wasn't super present because it wasn't ripe. I didn't get that sweetness. The cheese foam did not go well with it at all. It made it taste almost spoiled? I also got their top seller, the brown sugar bobo milk tea. This one was better. The boba was much sweeter. It was overwhelmingly milk though. Could have used more sweetness and more tea! Overall, if you're in the area and want bubble tea then go for it because there aren't many around. If you're not in the area then I would rather go to their flushing location. read more

Hmm I am bit disappointed here. I had their Ube milk tea here. The ube part is great but the bubbles are just bad felt like chewing plastics.

We noticed M Tea was running a promotion for BOGO free certain drinks on Uber Eats, so we decided to give them a try while we were in the area over the weekend. We tried the fresh grape tea smoothie, which was super refreshing and exactly what we were looking for on a hot day. There are a number of good bubble tea spots in LIC, but this is another one worth trying in a slightly out of the way location. read more

Great place for good bubble tea or milk tea as well as very tasty high end desserts. The café itself is very cute and pink inside! Service is always very quick and friendly. They do an incredibly busy takeout business so if you are ordering online there will likely be a wait during peak times. Stopping in is always a delight and the desserts are very scrumptious whether you are looking for a quality french macaron or slice of cake. Free wifi. read more

There are never enough bubble tea spots IMO. This is a good one! I love that they have a brown sugar milk tea (since some boba spots only have brown sugar milk) and it's good! Not overly sweet but a good amount of sweetness for me. I love all of their desserts. I've tried some of the French inspired ones, earl grey slice, and mango slice. All have been delicious so far. So many fun flavor combinations in the desserts. Treat yourself when you walk in! read more

Been here a couple times and think this is the best value Boba I've found. Haven't tried the desserts but the drinks are well crafted. Despite its simplicity, the rose tea is incredible. I'm a sucker for ube and they do it very well here too. read more

There have been quite a few bubble tea places in the area that opened up this year and this place has been my favorite. Their drinks are just made well, not too sweet, refreshing and doesn't have that artificial taste. I've ordered the orange boom, guava refresher, grape tea, crepe brûlée milk tea, mango pomelo and all have been excellent. I also love their beautiful desserts, tried the peach mochi and one of the cakes. Prices are pretty decent too and service was friendly. This will be my regular spot for sure. read more
