The items are all super affordable so you can't beat the price or experience. The place is always clean and the service is fast!
5 stars might be a stretch, but it's born out of a few very pleasant surprises. Our first Mixue attempt was at the Koreatown location, where the line was long and they had already sold out of soft serve. So, on our first (and second) visit at this Chinatown location, finding zero line on a weekend was a huge relief. And $1.69 for a matcha soft serve? That's almost unbelievable compared to the $10 we've paid elsewhere. I really hope Mixue's arrival helps bring down prices in an area where specialty drinks remain overpriced, even as new cafes continue to pop up on every block. What's not to like about Mixue? Well, while we were spared from waiting in long lines, I felt sorry for their staff who had to listen to the theme song on a continuous loop all day. Mixue, pronounced mee shwé, translates to honey snow. There are now 5 Mixue locations in NYC and counting, with over 60,000 worldwide. This is almost hard to wrap your mind around! They are clearly doing something right! I just hope their low prices are driven by economies of scale rather than cutting corners unethically, especially when it comes to the nature of their ingredients.
What's the world's largest fast-food chain? McDonald's? Starbucks? Subway? Nope! It's Mixue, a Chinese chain specializing in soft serve ice cream and tea with over 50,000 locations worldwide! The brand made its U.S. debut in December 2025 and now has four locations in Manhattan. There's a LOT of hype around it for one reason: ridiculously low prices. And when I say low... I mean shockingly low. My eyes popped outta my head when I looked at the menu. Most items are under $5. In NYC, that's almost unheard of. I'll admit, I was skeptical. $1.19 soft serve? $2-$4 drinks? Is it *WORTH* it? But babyyyy... one thing about me? I'll always try a new spot, even if it means taking an L. I'd rather spend money satisfying my curiosity than sit around wondering if the hype is real. I went to the Chinatown location on Canal Street. The bright red storefront is hard to miss. The interior is surprisingly spacious, with a small seating area along one wall and a restroom in the back. There are three self-order kiosks or you can order at the register if you're paying in cash. Menu highlights: -Soft serve (SIGNATURE, MUST TRY ITEM) -Sundaes -Fruit teas -Milk teas -Coffee You can customize your drink's sugar and ice levels and add tapioca pearls or other toppings. The place was busy and a bit chaotic, but everything moved quickly. My ice cream was ready in under 5 minutes. You can track your order on the LED screen above the counter, and there are labeled pickup areas depending on what you ordered. I got the Vanilla ($1.19) and Matcha ($1.69). First of all... they know how to swirl! The portions were generous, and there wasn't that annoying hollow center some places sneak into their soft serve. The texture? Fantastic. Dense, creamy, silky smooth. Not watery or icy at all. The waffle cone? Sturdy and crunchy. As for the flavors, I honestly wasn't expecting much given the price... but I was pleasantly surprised. The matcha was light and slightly sweet without tasting watered down--perfect if you dislike bitter matcha, but on the milder side if you're a purist looking for that rich, earthy flavor profile. I wasn't expecting ceremonial-grade quality at a $1.69 price point, so I was REALLY happy it actually tasted like matcha. The vanilla tasted more like fresh cream or rice milk rather than classic vanilla. Still enjoyable, just not what I anticipated. And while you're there, don't skip a photo op with Mixue's life-sized mascot, Snow King--a chubby snowman rocking a vibrant red cape, a golden crown, and an ice cream wand. He's all over the store, and as someone who's a sucker for cute things... I wanted to take him home with me. LOL. So... was this the best soft serve I've ever had? No. But was it worth the price? Absolutely! The quality, portions, and value were better than I expected. I spent around $3 (with taxes included), and that's a win in my book. I'd definitely come back. Next time, I'm trying the boba. One tip: they do sell out of ice cream and certain drinks, so it's best to go earlier in the day. You have almost nothing to lose... except a dollar and some change hahaha. MOVE OVER, MCDONALD'S!!! *insert clown emoji here* Mixue is here to stay and slayyyyyy!
Popped by right when it was about to open and a line started forming behind us. They prefer you order by the kiosk which was easy and there's three available. Large space inside and we sat towards the back which was an icebox back there. Comfortable temperature for soft serve dining. They call your number for soft serve and make it once you are there. And at the same time my drinks were ready. Good process. Vanilla soft serve - bigger than I thought for $1.19. The texture was good but doesn't have a noticeable vanilla flavor. Matcha soft serve - this was great! I enjoyed it more than I thought and the matcha was distinct. For under $2, it was a steal. Peach mango jasmine - 50% sugar and less ice. It was alright. Watered down. The chunks of peach were great. Matcha latte - 50% sugar. Didn't realize it comes with matcha pudding which was cool. Overall decent but also felt watered down. Will try at 75% sugar next time to see if it makes a difference. Can't complain too much. All this was under $13 for three cones and two drinks. A worthy experience.
$4 for a jasmine milk tea with 70% sweetness and less ice. It tasted pretty watered down, probably because I'm so used to Molly Tea. Definitely had a very Chinese-style flavor, but it wasn't really for me. 4/10.
Advantage: fast service. I got my order within 1-2 min. 3 self serve order kiosks. One cashier open for cash only. Good price. $1.19 for soft serve ( macha or vanilla) and $3.99 for medium bubble tea. Bubbles were very soft and well cooked. Disadvantage: bubble tea has good milk flavor but lack tea flavor. Soft serve tastes funny. Upon googling, it says they used milk powder instead of fresh liquid milk. Water ratio is also higher, that's why it melts faster. I also find the icecream too sweet to my taste. My two kids actually didn't like the icecream. Conclusion: two stars is for the good price. I won't buy the soft serve again but will try their other fruit tea products.
MIXUE has received its share of marketing and promo on social media for its soft serve, drinks & pricing. Since we were in the area and the wait wasn't too long, we decided to give them a try. Upon entry you will notice their kiddish red & ability white logos and decor with their snowman caricature. You do self order on the kiosk & pay by credit card only. Then b you go to the counter for pick up once they call your number. We decided to order affogato latte, matcha latte & jasmine float. + pricing - no customization - ask for sample but unwilling to accommodate - affagato latte taste like bad coffee with milk. Unfortunately and rarely will I decide that this is a no for me.
Cute place for cheap ice cream and drinks. Lots of themed Mixue items like bags, cups etc. Ice cream was good, not as creamy as Carvel but for the price, it was very good. I'd get it again. Drinks were watered down.
Can't really go wrong with $1 ice cream tbh. Their matcha ice cream is actually really good for $1.69. It's easy to order and pay on the kiosks, and the workers are pretty efficient with churning them out. The vanilla and chocolate ice creams are okay, they both taste vaguely reminiscent of vanilla/chocolate, but not quite like the actual flavor it's supposed to be. It's hard to describe. The drinks are also okay, but hey, can't really complain bc it's so cheap. Thank you China for Mixue!
I was so excited to see this when I was in Chinatown but was disheartened by the long line. The two kiosks are way too close to the exit/door that it causes quite a traffic jam and makes it look way more crowded. Thankfully ordering didn't take long at all but what took the longest was just my soft serve. Eventually my friend saw people going directly up and mentioning their order number to get their order faster. Everything is really affordable and tasty so I do think it's worth a visit.
IF what you are looking for is above average soft serve that's practically free. Go. If you are looking for high end nuanced flavors. Skip. I was surprised that the matcha was actually slightly strong, in a good way. Better than many that are 3x$
Mixue is amazing, first Time at this location, less crowded with same quality of soft serves. Ordering is easy, using the kiosks and definitely worth getting the matcha soft serve. The worker will call your order number before serving. Definitely worth giving this brand a try. There are some seats available but feels like more of a grab and go spot, pretty noisy because music is being played pretty loudly.
Mainly came here for the soft serves at the Soho/Chinatown location but was told by staff that they'd run out of both flavors. Okay so fast forward to another day, I was relieved to see people holding ice cream cones at last. So, imagine my face suddenly lit up with joy because I would finally get to try the matcha today after failing twice in the past. Place looked packed towards the storefront as a small crowd had gathered here and there. Almost started turning to the opposite direction and wanting to leave as I thought to myself, maybe I should wait a bit to see how long of a wait it would actually be since I was already here anyway. After placing an order of matcha soft serve by the cashier in the front instead of at the kiosks (card only), I paid in cash for a total of $1.84 ($1.69 + 15¢ tax). Got my receipt in hand and now waiting for my # to be called any moment now. I looked up at the LED screen expecting to see my order ready for pickup (aka fast) just like the other 2 locations in Herald Square + Hell's Kitchen. But, it was still stuck as ready for pickup on the LED screen for the next 20 mins without my # being called. So, I finally went up to the counter to ask. Learned that once you do see your # under the "ready for pickup" section though, you should just go to the ice cream area and ask about your order. The staff would then dispense the ice cream for you right on the spot. Not gonna lie, this process could get a bit chaotic since all the staff looked overwhelmed with many orders backed up at the same time. The theme song was also getting really annoying playing repeatedly in the background. I really don't know how the staff is enduring it every moment. Two huge statues of the Snow King are inside, one by the entrance and one by the counter as the iconic mascot of the store. The Chinatown/Soho location is the biggest of them all with little round tables and seats on the side. Kiosks on the right as soon as you step in. A working restroom is also located all the way in the back for customers only. Matcha Soft Serve: Bit of matcha taste only and not enough imo. But, it's still pretty good for $1.84 total. Vanilla Soft Serve: Has hint of coconut taste. Smooth and creamy, no gap is found in the center. Great deal for $1.30 in total. Conclusion: Would prefer vanilla over matcha soft serve. Love stopping by Mixue whenever I'm in the Chinatown/Soho neighborhood.
I love you and you love me is the catchy jingle that plays outside of every Mixue. And just like that tune the deals at Mixue will get you hooked in a similar manner. With their dollar plus soft serve and their refreshing teas, it's hard to pass up going into a Mixue when nearby. Especially as they have matcha soft ice cream that is cheaper in price than most and about comparable quality. I got one of their teas on a recent trip and it was satisfying. And not only that my order was processed incredibly quickly even though it was crowded. The space itself is more to go orders than to hang out. read more
With reluctance but a willingness and a open-mind for a second chance, I return to Mixue specifically for the ice cream. There are only two options for flavors: vanilla and Matcha. My inclination is to choose Matcha. Mixue's ice cream is soft-serve and surely taste of commercial ice cream powder mix combined with milk-based powder or milk. It was served on a waffle cone. It was good. For soft serve ice cream, I prefer Carvel and Dairy Queen. My strong predilection is traditional hard ice cream because it does not quickly melt enabling me to linger the taste for dolce far niente, Italian, taking pleasure in simple being for unhurried moments enjoyed without guilt or urgency. My party of nine (9) entered on a early Saturday afternoon at the optimal time when it was not crowded and there were abundant seating readily available. Excitement hovered the atmosphere for our large party for Mixue's soft serve powder mix ice cream. There were no napkins available for grabs. I used my own napkins. Evade the bubble tea! read more

This place just recently opened up and I noticed several locations are popping up fast all over New York City. This Chinatown location was really big and spacious. There were self kiosks to place your order apart from in person at the cashier. I placed my order with it and it went seamlessly smooth! The receipt goes to your phone so there was no worry about losing your receipt! I loved that about self kiosks! I came here a couple of times and my first purchase was a matcha soft serve ice cream cone! It was so good! The matcha tasted high quality for a very low price! I cannot believe that about this place! The horrible thing though is that the ice cream is always sold out by the end of the day! I guess it does make a little sense because you know they are selling out and they make fresh ice cream the following day. I got some thirst tea quenchers when I got here the last time. I got an iced jasmine tea and iced oolong tea without any milk, sugar, or toppings! The drinks were good refreshers! I loved them a lot! They come in a good size that was not extremely small or too big. They were just $1.99 for each tea! The bag was also free of charge so I loved this place a lot! Almost everything is under $5! The place was very huge and packed with people in the booths towards the back when I got here last time. There were benches and some small tables attached to one side of the wall. There was not enough seating but luckily my order was to go so I did not need to worry about seating. I don't think the bathrooms are working in this location because towards the back, there was a rope guarding anyone from going in. There were many shelves for pick up orders but they were all empty. Many people there just place their orders and pick them up fast. The place was loud though with many people talking and did not seem like a quiet place to hang out. The doors were opened up to the loud street on Canal with many people walking back and forth. This place was very casual and the staff were extremely nice and attentive. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants $1.99 iced tea and matcha ice cream! read more
Tried the pearl milk tea at Mixue and honestly, it lives up to the hype if you're looking for something cheap and quick in NYC. The pearl milk tea was about $4.99, which is way cheaper than most bubble tea spots in the city. The drink itself was solid creamy, pretty sweet, and the boba had a nice chewy texture. It's not the most premium tea flavor wise, but for the price, it definitely hits. One thing to note is the ordering system, you order through a self service kiosk instead of at the counter. It's pretty straightforward and fast, but it does make the experience feel a bit impersonal. On the plus side, it keeps the line moving quickly, which is nice because this place can get busy. As for seating, don't expect to hang out here. The space is very limited (or sometimes no seating at all), so it's more of a grab and go spot than somewhere to chill. Overall: good value, quick service, and decent boba. I'd come back if I want something sweet without spending $7-$8 at other tea shops. read more
I've been excited to see this place ever since I saw that one would be opening in Chinatown. It was quite busy despite it being late afternoon on a weekday. Ordering was done via giant tablets by the door (they can also take orders at the register). I tried the soft serve cone because it's an absolute steal for under $2. As soon as the order was placed, the staff member immediately called out the order number and had the cone ready. Talk about efficient! The soft serve was very creamy and tasted like white rabbit candy. It was served in a thin crunchy waffle cone. Lots of seating and small tables in the back but most people seemed to take their orders to go. read more
You can still find a $1 cone in New York City and it's at Mixue . Ok ,it's actually $1.19 plus tax so total was $1.30 . But that's only for the vanilla soft serve cone (cocoa or matcha i think was $1.98.) Now it's very creamy and dense and hits the spot on a hot day but it isn't as sweet as most other soft serve. So although I prefer my ice cream a bit sweeter you can't beat this price . Check out Mixue on Canal and Broadway if you're in Chinatown. Take your receipt to the back counter area to pick up your cone . read more

So happy Mixue finally opened! Not the highest quality drinks, but that's not why you come - it's the best bang for the buck around. The service was a bit on the slow side and our order number wasn't ever called, but we had also come by on a busy weekend evening. I'll definitely be back! Cheap and delicious to hit the spot. read more
Great quality ice cream for its price Got the mango sundae. Taste is right up there. Strong mango flavors, and subtle vanilla on the ice cream. Good temps on it as well. It was so good. I was just kind of disappointed the cup I had had a giant hole in it that wasn't filled. I thought I was getting a cups worth. Service can be busy. Maybe since there was a promotional event going on, but it was crowded. All seats were full and a lot of people standing around waiting for orders. Managed to find a seat as a couple was leaving. Staff are pretty friendly, but busy. There are long queue of orders so that's understandable. read more

I guess you get what you pay for. For the prices you're paying for the ice cream it's not bad but for the milk drinks, it is very bland so I didn't enjoy it. The fruits tea drinks are slightly better but I guess don't expect too much. Luckily the wait wasn't too long the few times I came by if not I would not think it's worth the wait. read more
The spot is right next to McDonald's and I'm glad that they finally opened in Chinatown. $1.69 for Matcha ice cream is already such a steal and delicious. For the price can't really complain much. They also have variety of drinks to order which is a good alternative for affordable boba. Even though it gets quite busy service flows quickly and the wait does not take long. read more

A place to get affordable bubble milk tea and ice cream. I won't say it is the best ice cream or boba I've tasted but it is definitely the most affordable one in the city. The service is quite fast as within 2~ minutes of ordering usually we get our order. Sometimes this place is just absolutely packed and sometimes there is just a few minutes wait to get in. Definitely give it a try if in the neighborhood and have a sweet tooth. read more
Pros: - quick service, my food and drinks came out quick (within 3 minutes of placing my ordering) - the staff were nice - for the price, I'd say their stuff is actually pretty good, I would go back all the time just for the matcha soft serve Cons: Comments: - went around 5:45PM on a Wednesday evening, there was a short line when I had gotten there - two of their ordering machines were down, so the line ended up going out the door (thankfully I got there before this happened) - there is some seating, I was in and out of there so I don't remember if there was a lot - music wasn't too loud read more

Mixue is one of the best boba and ice cream spots where you get value for your dollar. It's good and refreshing on a sunny day and the prices are less than half of other boba spots in the city. It's also got a great theme song and the mascot is cool. I also recently tried their cocoa ice cream and can say that they have better ice cream than McDonald's. read more

Very crowded on weekends but that's not a surprising given the warm weather. The ice creams are the best. Very affordable and refreshing. read more
Came here when it first opens. It has many cheap ice cream and drinks. Very simple and budget-friendly. The place has machines to order and seats to sit. Can also order in the counter. When ordered, the staff will call the number and then prepare the ice cream for us. Very quick. There is merch too. Often come here for a small drink and ice cream to cool off during humid summer. read more

Ok this is now one of my go-to places when I go to Chinatown. I mean, how can you beat $1 (ok, $1.19) ice cream?! Despite the price, the portions are pretty big and the ice cream is delicious. Service is quick and they have self-order kiosks to make it easy to order. Or you can use the cash only register if you like. If you couldn't tell by the name, Mixue is a popular chain from China quickly gaining traction in the US. They pretty much play the theme song 24/7, reminding me of Don Quixote in Asia. read more

Heard many good things about Mixue and right outside the Canal Street train station. There is a QR code to scan to order but it wasn't working to load the menu. Everyone was ordering off kiosks. There are 2 in the store to order from. There was about 5 people ahead of me & it went fairly quickly. There are specials when you load your information into the kiosk such as $1 drink, 1 cent ice cream, % off, etc. I got the oolong tea with 50% sugar and less ice. The drink is really good and will hold me for the rest of the day. Really wanted to try the ice cream but it's just too cold, so will go back again. There is decent amount of seating and does get decently crowded. It was a bit of a wait for the drinks but nothing too crazy. Will be back for the soft serve! read more
