    The staff was very friendly. On a weekday night, it was quiet and my order was ready in no more than 5 minutes. The boba was chewy, although it didn't have much flavor to it. The hot medium Tie Guan Yin Latte was perfect for the freezing weather.

    Oolong Milk Tea Hot

    I've been to this spot when it was PaTea and when it became MooMooChaa and it's about the same either business. It's an ok spot if you're in proximity and want your boba for the day. Otherwise don't go out of your way to come here when there are better boba options in the city. This is a not a spot to come with a group of friends to hang out, it's a take out spot and not because they're so busy. Even when you're waiting, it's better to go outside if you're not by yourself or there are already a few people inside. So if you come during winter, then be prepared to wait outside for your order because this place is so small. It's got two little corners on either side of the store that people could stand at but if there's already 4 people in the store then you're out of luck. As far as the drinks go, they do their job and taste like a typical boba spot, I don't have anything to complain about from the ones I've tried. Got both a hot and cold drink here before. The staff here aren't the friendliest or create a better experience compared to other businesses but maybe they don't like the store layout either because it's almost like they are hiding behind that counter ha

    Fresh Grapefruit Green Tea
    Elliana T.

    Stopped by this place before the movies and Im glad I did! The inside is small and there's not much seating, but the workers are nice. I got a small grapefruit green tea. The grapefruit flavor is strong and fresh. I didn't get boba this time, but will definitely come back to try it.

    my drink was so sweet and i like sweet so maybe I would get less sugar next time. Maybe I wasn't in the mood for it to be this sweet but I say in the summer if you're really thirty and craving something sweet sweet then this flavor is for you with 50% suga. Mango Yakult bev. There is seats but about 5 individual seating, small shop so be aware if it's packed then hard to get seating

    very small tea shop with 1 small bar to sit at and small table for 2 people basically. the workers are friendly and be prepared to wait a bit for your tea! it took about 10 minutes to make. we weren't in a rush so this was ok but we didn't know that it would take so long so would've been nice to know beforehand given we ordered first with no customers ahead of us and one other person ordered behind us. Fresh lemon green tea - If you like sour you should definitely get this! the sourness is strong but super yummy and has a good amount of sweetness to help balance it out! I can really taste both the lemon and the green tea. 4.75/5 brown sugar oolong milk tea - I can really taste the tea in this drink too! nice ratio of milk to oolong but not as impressive as the other drink. bobas are about standard. 3.75/5

    Really liked their drinks but would definitely recommend getting 30% sugar. The drink size was also big for an average large price elsewhere and there was a lot of people when I went though the drinks were made at a pretty fast pace. Overall a good bubble tea spot!

    Mango Ice Cream Swirl and Jasmine Green Milk Tea

    Awesome place! Found it when I was walking around in the area. The bubble teas are amazing and the shop is small and cute. I ordered the mango ice cream swirl and then jasmine milk tea. Both were so good!

    Taiwan Milk Tea
    Kara W.

    I have literally been looking for a place in the US to get bubble tea that has mini boba ever since I spent time in Taiwan and had mini boba there. It is so uncommon where I am from and I was ecstatic to find it while visiting New York City. This place was a hole on the wall of perfection. Perfect tea to milk ratio and perfectly cooked mini boba. I would have gone back every day if it were closer to my hotel. The service was quick and they even had a bogo special going when we were there. They have an extra large option ans cost wise its worth it to size up. We got the medium size and wish we would've opted for the bigger!

    Mango Ice Cream Swirl, Brown Sugar Oolong Milk Tea
    Victoria K.

    [NYC BOBA TOUR STOP #2] The standouts of this store are definitely the large selection, their signature 26 oz stubby cup, their mini boba, and their student/vaccinated discount. *chef's kiss* all around for all of these things. The stubby size is PERFECT for when you want a lot of boba but you don't want to actually feel like you're drinking a lot of boba (big brain move). Unfortunately, even though we finished our drinks (boba is boba), we were a little underwhelmed by the drinks themselves. The milk teas we got (brown sugar oolong and rose) were not very flavorful once you removed the sugar from them. I got less sugar in my brown sugar oolong and could only taste the oolong milk tea. My cousin got the mango ice cream swirl; she said it tasted good but was a little overly sweet (which, I suppose, is expected since there's a bunch of ice cream on the bottom but still). All that being said, we'd come back to try out their other flavors and to get those stubbies again!

    Stumbled here for after dinner tea. Had their mango peach green tea. With boba. You get to choose between the small and big boba also get to choose the sugar levels. Also they serve a huge huge cup if you're into that. Very tasty tea. Service was super quick. Seating isn't much but if you're planning to sit you can get boba here and sit at union square. Thanks for the delicious dessert!

    The cutest and smallest boba shop in the area! I ordered the stubby which is 30 oz and I have no regrets. I got the rose milk tea with boba and 70% sugar. I do like my drinks on the less sweet side so the 70% was perfect. The workers here are super friendly and will never give you a hard time. The atmosphere is very welcoming and you can even leave a message on a post-it on their wall. They also offer a student discount for all the students nearby! Will definitely be back when i'm in the area!

    Lychee Green Tea with Honey Aloe (5/5 stars)
    Angela Z.

    Ordered off DoorDash and was pleasantly surprised at how good this boba was! I usually don't have much faith in boba places with Hello Kitty-esque logos and huge menus, but PaTea proved me wrong. I ordered the Rose Milk Tea with Boba, and my boyfriend ordered the Lychee Green Tea with Honey Aloe. Rose Milk Tea (5/5) - This is one of my go-to orders in back home in California, but I don't see it as often on menus in New York and haven't found a place that does it well until now. Sweet (but not too sweet) and creamy, with a nice rose flavor that isn't too strong or syrupy. And the boba was pretty squishy too! Lychee Green Tea (5/5) - A nice and refreshing fruity drink, you usually can't go wrong with this order. It wasn't overly sweet or watered down, and the aloe was a fun topping that you don't see often in NYC boba places either. Would definitely order again next time I get a boba craving :)

    Do they offer plant based milk tea?

    By plant based milk tea, are you looking for a drink with MILK? If so, they do offer almond milk as milk substitute for their tea latte

    Ordering frozen yogurt at this Pinkberry was one of the most horrifying customer experiences I've…read morehad. When I walked in, I immediately went to the display showing all the toppings. I've never been to a yogurt store that makes you pay a set price first before selecting toppings, which also means toppings are limited based on the yogurt size (something I only realized later after looking at a picture I took in the store). The employee who was supposed to help me immediately gave me attitude, as if I was supposed to already know all the "rules" of the store. I said nothing that would have warranted that reaction -- I simply went over to the display. At the register, I scanned my rewards app then couldn't find the card reader to pay. After about 20 seconds, I realized it was sitting on top of a case of water bottles (pictured). The topping limit signage was also placed off to the side of the register where customers wouldn't naturally see it -- it wasn't even on my side and was partially blocked. I only found this out when I went up to the counter after I got my yogurt. While choosing toppings, I asked how many I was allowed, and she responded, "How many toppings do you think you're supposed to choose?" with a noticeably rude tone. When I chose cookie dough as my fourth topping, she only gave me a few pieces, dropped another on the counter (pictured), and ignored it. The cookie dough topping was stale too. I also noticed she did not seem to treat other customers the same way. I eventually went back to the register - I asked her if the yogurt was actually strawberry matcha because it tasted like vanilla. I also asked about her rudeness because I genuinely didn't understand why I was being treated that way for asking simple questions. She said the information was "on the wall," even though it was difficult to see. I actually ended up apologizing earlier because she made me feel like I was burdening her. The only personable thing she said the entire interaction was that I didn't need to apologize, but the tone still felt unfriendly. Two customers sitting nearby ended up leaving without ordering. I understand it was Super Bowl Sunday and she appeared to be working alone, which may have contributed to stress. Still, I left feeling extremely shaken and even spilled yogurt on my jacket afterward. I would not return to this location. I used to come to this location sometimes, but after this experience -- and a previous visit where I ordered a tea and received very little -- I would not return.

    Froyo used to be the thing and Pinkberry was probably the one that started it all. Now most of the…read morefroyo places no longer exist but Pinkberry is still around, this says something about Pinkberry. I must say the tart taste is unique and it is our favorite. We still enjoy it, but seems like the toppings were not as good. The service was not bad but so-so. If you like froyo IMO this probably is the best tasting one.

Ahh, grass jelly loeng4 fan2 涼粉 is my childhood favorite dessert and summons nostalgia! It is my mission to search for bubble tea businesses that offers grass jelly as a topping for my primary reason to patronize. It was abundant which filled one quarter of my medium sized drink. The grass jelly topping is New York City standard priced at $0.50 at least there is sustainability and a sense of normalcy. I requested regular ice, but the entire ice dispensed disappointedly melted and the drink became room temperate. Heat wave medium $6.00 Passionfruit green tea with grass jelly, 50%, light sugar. The drink alone was good quality. While scanning the electronic menu the drink names appear very comical and not business appropriate as well as this bubble tea business name Ho Ho Te. The sound speakers is boisterously loud blasting music directly at my face by the ordering counter. The cashier associate was 90% inaudible of her customer service questions due to the boisterously loud blasting music as I had to fight loud vs. loud by blurting loudly several times: "WHAT?" Why would a business intentionally place sound speakers in front of a ordering counter station where customers must communicate their food/drink orders? How can customers place their drinks orders with clear specific description/instructions only for the cashier associate to inadvertently obfuscate by misinformation because the message conveyed was utterly misinterpreted? Communication is vital for ordering and order fulfillment accuracy in the food service industry! The cardboard paper straws available are environmentally sustainable friendly for biodegradable and compostable. However, these cardboard straws taste AWFULl!! The drink selection is very limited menu compared with other bubble tea competitors. Disappointedly there is no Jasmine green tea on the menu. There are some food items. Takeout menus are available for grabs. Loyalty card is available which also serve as business card where the back is printed in gold foil. This business is very accessible by MTA NYC Transit at Port Authority 42nd Street's A, C, E trains and buses near the peripheral of Times Square.
