I used to really like machi machi when I lived in London, and was really happy to see one here. I still think it's great however there are better options around in Flushing that I prefer (Molly Tea, Hey Tea) that machi machi can't really quite compete. I did really like their fruit orange tea though. read more

Little pricey in my opinion. The grapefruit slush was great! Perfectly sweetened and the taste of green tea was very prominent. The brown sugar boba was honestly just milk to be honest. read more

Machi Machi - Bubble Tea Near Me - Flushing, New York

If Machi Machi were anywhere else in Flushing, it would be harder to stand out given the endless drink shops around the neighborhood. But because they're in Tangram (#1) where bubble tea shops are a bit more sparse, it becomes a no brainer to grab a drink here when walking around the place. I've found that each time I'm shopping around here, I'll eventually end up at Machi Machi. Like many places, they have a self-ordering touch screen with a variety of fruit based drinks, milk tea, and seasonal series. I don't see folks behind the counter often and thus the service is sometimes non-existent. In fact, had it not been for the Yelp app, I wouldn't have noticed this spot at all. There is some limited seating on the side and a nice IG-worthy "I love you so machi" illuminated wall sign. Most of the milk teas come in a standard plastic cup with a seal, but any of the panna cotta series will come in a cute bottle with a metal screw-on cap. It's fancy packaging and a cute gimmick that is clearly working for them. I think the black milk tea is very average, but the Shizuoka matcha milk tea with creme brulee is particularly good choice. The strawberry latte with panna cotta is nice during the summer time, as is any of their fruit smoothies with cheese foam. Drinks are going to be in the 8-$10 range, which is unfortunately where NYC is on drink-flation. They close a little earlier than other businesses in the mall, which is around 8pm on most days. It's not destination worthy milk tea in my opinion, but it's a solid option for days where venturing out beyond Tangram's doors isn't likely. ___________ (#1) https://www.yelp.com/biz/tangram-flushing read more

A complete 180° experience from their Manhattan location. I'm sure they answered most of us Queensites' (myself included) prayers when they opened this location and it has been a blessing. Despite peak times, I've never had to wait longer than 10 minutes for a drink (compared to the 1.5 hours in K-Town, which was a low moment where I had compromised my principles). I usually just make a pick-up order and amazingly, it is always ready on time. I've yet had a drink that I didn't like--all of them have been done to my liking and IMO, their no-sweetness is much better than any additional sugar. I really wish that they offered the drinks in a cup rather than the bottles that you can reuse/repurpose for only so many things but I'm sure that wouldn't be as profitable. The bottled drinks are probably some of the priciest drinks that I've ever had (high $8-$10 range), and for such a smaller quantity than average. There are only about 3-4 other specialty drink shops in the Tangram Mall, so if you're a visitor from out of the area, you really have to pick your poison...or space them out! read more

I had a really great experience trying this unique drink at Machi Machi in Flushing. First of all, their bottle-style drink cups are so cute and something I brought home so I can reuse. I ordered the Shizuoka Matcha Milk Tea with Panna Cotta and I really enjoyed it. the matcha is very good quality and has great flavor, and the Panna Cotta (first time trying for me) definitely added a unique texture to the drink that I've never had before, but I really liked it. It tasted like I had a small sweet custard inside my drink. This location is in the Tangram Mall in Flushing so there's seating nearby in the mall/food court. The drink is definitely not the cheapest (~$9), which is the main reason I won't give five stars, but it was a great experience nonetheless and glad I got to try. Will be back! read more

On a normal day, I would steer clear of anything in Ktown but I was sold on the cute bubble tea panna cotta flasks. It isn't new to add pudding into bubble tea, but when it's marketed as pAnNa CoTta in a cute flask on Instagram, your mind starts to consider. So when my friends and I walked in, I ordered a Black Milk Tea with Panna Cotta and my other friend ordered a standard ti guan yin green tea through the digital kiosks. It didn't take long for our orders to be called and we picked up our drinks at the pickup window. Taste and texture wise, the Black Milk Tea with the Panna Cotta is a hit with the subtle sweetness of the black milk tea (25% sweetness) mixed with the creamy chunks of panna cotta. I surprise myself in admitting that the drink was worth my 9 dollars. My friend's ti guan yin green tea was pretty good too but I think you can get similar quality for cheaper at other places. So if you're also targeted by those cute Machi Machi Instagram ads, give into the temptation and get your milk tea panna cotta flask. Or even better, go with your friends and try one each. read more

I usually visit this Machi Machi once in a while when I'm at Tangram. Compared to their Ktown location, the lines are much shorter here. Copied from the ktown Machi Machi review: I typically get their panna cotta. I've tried both the Matcha Panna Cotta and the Strawberry Latte Panna Cotta. Honestly, I wasn't a fan of the Matcha Panna Cotta; it was quite bitter and lacked the rich quality I was expecting. I wouldn't get it again. However, I do recommend the Strawberry Latte Panna Cotta. Although it's a bit grainy with seeds (which I don't mind!), the strawberry flavor is pleasant and I'm a huge fan of the panna cotta part at the bottom! Overall, I'd say Machi Machi is more about the aesthetic than high-quality boba. The drinks are pricey and, in my opinion, not really worth it for the taste. The beverages are average, but what you're really paying for is the unique bottle and the Instagram-worthy presentation. 3.5, rounded to a 4. P.S.: Visit sometime during the holiday season and they add a cute hat to your bottle :) read more

＊Strawberry Latte w/ Panna Cotta I love this Strawberry Milk so Machi! The sugar level was fixed but the strawberry milk was naturally sweet and without any artificial flavors. At the bottom it was loaded with panna cotta, which really hit my personal sweet spot. The milky pudding added an interesting texture to the drink after smashing it into chunks. I was a bit freaked out when they didn't provide any milk alternatives for their drinks. If you are lactose intolerant or allergic to dairy products, be careful when you order. I struggled for awhile but still decided to gamble my stomach to try their strawberry latte bc the plastic flask was cute. luckily I didn't suffer from any lactose intolerance symptoms afterwards. Tbh it was shocking to see Machi Machi has low ratings on Yelp. That was why I hesitated whether I should still splurge on their drinks. The reviews were justifying bc the pricing is unreasonably aggressive ($9). Well, this is a celebrity-brand as it is owned by Jay Chou. Self-explanatory. *** A little tip: enjoy a discount if you spend $10 and order via Chowbus app. Worth Returning ? Yes but only if there is discount lol read more

I was pretty fascinated with the drinks with a layer at the bottom at Machi Machi, and decided to try the strawberry milk with panna cotta. The strawberry milk was frothy and icy. The panna cotta was an interesting experience... The drink wasn't too sweet, which was nice, but I would rather have cheese foam than panna cotta. It definitely looks cool but I don't know how well it works as a "topping" -- seems like more of a novelty than anything. read more

When Machi Machi was selling drinks with the miniature beanies on top, I had to show my boyfriend how cute they were on IG. And good thing I did because he ended up getting me the macha latte with panna cotta! I generally enjoy matcha lattes, but panna cotta is one of my favorite desserts, so I was excited to try the combination. The matcha was a little more on the bitter side, which I don't mind because I prefer the bittersweet flavor, but it was a little too grainy. The panna cotta was good though. Overall, the drink was okay and was a little expensive for the size, but the beanie made it worth it for me! read more

Machi Machi - Matcha latte with Panna cotta - Bubble Tea Near Me - Flushing, New York

New bubble tea shop?  Yes please! Although I probably wouldn't call this a "shop"; it's more like a stall. Machi Machi is a tea shop chain that originated from Taiwan.  This is their second location in New York and is located inside the Tangram building in the lower level.  Interestingly enough, there are two other bubble tea business inside this building I guess in Flushing, there's enough of a bubble tea demand to warrant this??  I ordered a Black Milk Tea with Creme Brulee and Tapioca. At almost ten bucks for my drink, prices are higher here than other bubble tea shops. The drink was delicious. Delicate and fresh tasting. The creme brulee had a smooth texture, slight sweet taste and went well with the black tea. Is it worth the hype?  Eh...I'm still undecided. read more

The customer service here is quite awful. I asked them to make my drink with adjustments and they would not accommodate. I offered to pay the difference so that I can add a topping into my drink that was not included. It doesn't cost much to help a customer, especially since drinks are easily customizable, but it seems like they just don't care about customers. Won't be returning here unfortunately, especially since there is no where to sit and only a kiosk to order. read more

Heard it was Jay Chou's favorite boba place, but the food is alright. Had it several times and the matcha drinks and mango drinks are recommended over standard milk tea. The staff is really friendly and the decor is so cute! read more

Novelty drink that was overpriced ($9 for this grapefruit green tea)--what's new? The flavor was great, and there's a layer of jelly at the bottom. But for a larger size and more drink, you could probably go elsewhere. As many others have shared, service was a little slow. Yes the drink comes in a bottle, but it's not glass so I didn't get the hype. A fun experience while it lasted, but not sure I would order again :') read more

This Machi Machi is the second one in NY located in Tangram mall in Flushing, Queens. I tried the one in Koreatown and liked the creme brûlée milk tea a lot so decided to give a second try of other drinks since I live in queens. I didn't get the drinks in bottle because it was way too pricey and not worth it. I ordered two drinks: the green team plum juice with boba and regular bubble milk tea with boba. Their boba is pretty big and chewy with a good amount as well. Very satisfied! The green tea with plum juice was pretty good, very refreshing and surprisingly strong taste of teA. I like it a lot compared to the regular bubble milk black tea. However, ordered two medium drinks and it was $17 in total, quite pricey for boba tea. read more

I have a love and hate relationship with Machi Machi. It is one of my favorite boba places by taste, but it is truly overpriced due to its fame. There are 2 Machi Machi locations in NY - one in Ktown and one in Flushing. The Flushing location is in the Tangram Mall's first floor - you can place your order through kiosk, and the wait time is not too long. If you are looking for a insta-worthy place with tasty drinks and cute bottle. This is it. But be prepared to spend ~$9 per drink. If you don't mind the price and want a good milk tea or fruit tea, this is it for you as well. Machi Machi's fruit based drinks and milk tea are all excellent. A few of my personal favorites: Fruity: - Jasmine Green Tea with Plum Jello - Grapefruit Green Tea Slush with Jelly - Jasmine Green Tea with Fresh Fruits Milky: - Strawberry Latte with Panna Cotta - Black Milk Tea with Taro Balls read more

Machi Machi - Bubble Tea Near Me - Flushing, New York

good but VERY expensive for what it is. i've been to this location twice and had been treated by my sister both times. otherwise i'd find it hard to shell out $$ for their drinks. the panna cotta drinks are definitely popular here and the taro and strawberry drinks are both pretty good. the grapefruit green tea with jelly was very refreshing and balanced. i've tried a fruit tea before and found it very underwhelming, so underwhelming that i've forgotten what it was... now, the best drink i've gotten so far is the shizuoka matcha milk tea with creme brulee and red beans. the creme topping is like a more liquid version of a pudding or creme brulee, it was sooooo rich and decadent! the matcha had a nice flavor (not that grass clipping taste) and red beans made it a perfect match. highly recommend this one if you're a matcha fiend! overall, it's pretty but oooooooh-so-pricey. definitely more like an once-in-awhile kinda treat. read more

Also, there is only space to sit for 3 people under their pretty signage. It's a grab and go place within Tangram mall. read more

Machi Machi - Chocolate crème brûlée milk tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Flushing, New York

This place is very Grammable. Everyone wants the bottle. And the bottle costs extra, so be aware of that. Yes it looks pretty in the bottle. But drinking it with such a small opening is annoying. Plus the bottle is plastic. I got the drink in a normal cup as well. It tastes the same. I got the mango slush special. It's pretty good but a bit pricier than your average bubble tea. You're probably going to get the bottle for the gram. But the next time you can get it in a normal cup. It will taste the same. You can order at the kiosk, but if you only have cash you'll have to wait on the other line for an actual person to take your order. It does a Take a while to get your drink but that's why they have those seats for you! read more

The one star is for the prices they are charging for the drinks. A large black milk tea w/bubble costs $11.38. It's insane that they are charging so much for one large drink. In Taiwan, the same drink will probably cost around $1.65. If I went to another bubble tea shop in the same location I can save around $4.00. read more

I always see long lines here and I heard it was Jay Chou's favorite boba shop so I was curious to try it. I ordered a basic sun moon lake tea and was not impressed.

As much as I want to complain about the price, I think that approach is unfair. If you go get a premium tea with name brand, hype, and modernity, it'll reflect on the price. I had the matcha red bean, strawberry slush, and fruit jasmine green. Bad move on the slush--not enough flavor, which is good! Just means I'm addicted to sugar unfortunately. What sucked was the wait time. I don't understand why it takes more than 5 mins per drink. If we consider that Starbucks has ridiculous drink orders but can turn that back and more under 5 mins, then there should be no reason for a 10 minute wait. I know for sure they're not doing fresh brewed hot tea, then flash freezing it to be cold, before serving it into a cup. It's all prepped before hand. At 10 mins, it's inefficient and pretentious goods. read more

Pros: - inside Tangram mall which was gave easy access to eat different foods - promotion for free drink is available - drink tasted really good. I ordered Grapefruit Mango cream smoothie!!'

The flavors of their milk tea are very good and their packaging and stall is very aesthetically pleasing but the drink comes with a high price and long wait time. $9.20 for a small bottle of black tea panna cotta. It's def a once in a while splurge for me. Their tea flavor is strong which is always a plus for me. the level of sweetness is perfect for me. Currently , they seem to be very backed up and it could be due to the new craze in flushing and lack of employees but I am sure it'll get better later. Right now , they are new and probably just getting used to the volume of work. Def worth trying this spot out. read more

This place is located at the new mall Tangram in Flushing. My friend and I stopped by here to try out their drinks. I know there is one location in KTOWN but I never got the chance to try it over there since it always a long line. When I found out they opened one in at Tangram, I was super excited. I tried their Grapefruit Slushy with jelly. I loved it! It was perfect and it was great for the summer. The line wasn't too long. But the wait time for the drinks to pick up took a little longer than I expected. I assumed they don't have any staffs in the back. We waited about 5-10 mins for our drinks. I feel like the drink is slightly on the expensive side, but it probably because due to the cute bottle they have. You pretty much paying for the extra $1-2 for the bottle. However, we were still satisfied about the drinks we had. We do like to come back and try their other drinks when we are around the area again. read more

I knew that Machi Machi was coming to Tangram, but didn't realize that this place opened. The shop is in a corner of the lower level of the building, right next to kid's playground/cafe. There is a line with ppl waiting around the table. It took around 5 mins to order on the kiosk and your receipt has your #. I got the grapefruit green tea and it was around $9. Pretty pricey for the neighborhood. Other shops around Main St is $5-$7 so yes bubble tea isn't the cheapest drinks. Anyways, the drink took around 7 mins to come out, but I kinda figured I will wait with the people staying around. The drink came in a cute plastic bottle - unfortunately, doesn't seem too reliable to be reused and repurposed. After a quick picture, I tried the drink and was very impressed. The drink is pretty good - I got 30% sugar level and was the perfect sweet but not too sweet. It was a nice experience, but I feel like I will need to really crave it to order again. So if you are around Tangram, why not? :) read more
