    Small location for drinks and snacks. There is currently a BOGO 50% off. I like their passionfruit drink as its not overly sweet. You can also opt to add additional toppings. My friend's yakult drink wasn't overly sweet as well. There is some seating if you decide to dine in. Ordering and service is friendly and quick.

    Three sisters (lychee jelly instead of popping boba)

    Stopped by at this small dessert shop for a sweet treat after dinner nearby. There's a handful of seats but when we came by it was still pretty empty, just a few other people eating. We got the "three sisters" which I liked! The jellies were very yummy without being too sweet, and I appreciated that they let me switch out the popping boba (hate!!) for lychee jelly haha. Portion size was pretty big (fair for the price) Would definitely come back :)

    Came here for a quick bite of after-dinner sugar. We got the Pandas on Pandan. It was cute as a button but bland as.....a button? Anyway, it looked on point but lacked actual pandan or coconut flavor. Textures were nicely chewy, though, and the panda marshmallows themselves were sweet. If you don't care to 'gram your dessert, maybe try something else.

    Specials for the summer

    It's a cute small dessert place in the heart of Chinatown. There's a a couple of places to sit inside but mostly it's a take out dessert place for shaved ices and other sweet treats. We got the special matcha shaved ice. The water melon and popping boba was sweet. The matcha flavor was strong. The ice had a slight creamy texture. The cool treat was perfect for a hot summer day. The staff was friendly.

    Milk tea with boba

    This place was adorable, brightly light, and well decorated. I got the milk tea with boba and it was super good. Boba was the perfect consistency and the tea had great flavor. The staff was friendly and helped with any questions I had.

    I've been wanting to try their pandas on Pandan for a while and glad I got to try it on a hot summer day. There's limited seating so that's something to keep in mind if coming here. This is actually a pretty decent sized portion and there's quite a bit of topping. I was always curious what the pandas tasted like, and it's marshmallows!

    Visited this place for the first time and this is a super fun dessert to try. It's great for the summertime and will keep you cool. This chilled dessert came with mangoes, watermelon, jelly, and pudding. This option is dairy-free so i love that they had this option! The coconut milk was also super good and paired well with the dessert. I rarely see desserts like this in Chinatown so happy to hear that there's something like this now.

    GAVE ME THE WRONG ITEM!!!
    Christopher Y.

    I would give them a zero if I could!!! I had placed an order over the phone, arrived at the location, paid and was given something completely different. I had ordered taro mochi (hot dessert) & was given taro mochi milk tea.... After I paid and was given the wrong item I wasn't even offered a refund or something to make the situation better. It's also a joke how this milk tea costed $8 and was a medium (which looks like a small) & the funniest part is, IT DIDNT EVEN COME WITH MOCHI!! What a scam/rip off!! The girl in the front who served it to me basically guilt tripped me into taking it saying "we don't have that on the menu sorry, this is what we made" (keep in mind it's on their menu loud and clear under hot desserts). I would've asked for a refund but there was a line and I didn't wanna hold it up. Very poor customer service & I WONT be coming back! Don't have items on the menu you don't serve anymore & don't guilt trip and force customers to take something they didn't order!

    Roaming around and decided to stop by this Chinese dessert shop on a 90+ degree day in NYC. The shop is new! Opened maybe a few months. Small shop, friendly service and very clean. The desserts are sooo refreshing and just sweet enough. A welcome treat on this super hot day! Only wish was that they had a branch in Philly!

    What a cute little shop! Service was fast and the dessert was cute and quite yummy! we ordered the pandas on Pandan and thread sisters dessert . The coconut milk came separately in a pouch for you to pour over your dessert. Choice of sago or bingfen jelly on the desserts as well. Both looked amazing. The noodle jelly was different and tasty. Very filling so can definitely share btw 2 people if you want . They do serve snacks as well but we were too full to eat it. Will have to try next time !

    Pandas on Pandan and Grape Fruit Slush
    Will N.

    Cute, clean interior and playful decor. Saw the fun Pandas on Pandan and wanted to try. Pandas are flavored marshmallows but were not the freshest. Fun textures altogether though. This order also comes with a coconut milk pouch that you get to pour yourself. Not my exact taste of dessert but I admit ordered it for the experience. Food itself isn't outstanding, but the kind staff and setting makes up for it.

    Grape slush
    Andrew W.

    New boba + dessert spot in Chinatown on Bayard St! They have a good selection of milk teas, slushes, fruit drinks - the usual. They have pretty stiff competition with Chicha San Chen and a plethora of other boba spots within a few blocks, but the grape slush I got was a solid contender. One area for improvement was that they didn't have any non-dairy milks, so I had to skip on trying the milk teas. Didn't get to try any of the desserts this time but the coconut pudding desserts that two girls at a table next to me were eating looked really aesthetic and tasty, so will definitely try one of those next time.

    Three sisters

    Refreshing desserts for a hot summer day. If you like che, this will be right up your alley. If you like boba, probably will like this too. Bonus for having seating and outlets. Not recommending setting up camp, but a great place to have a quick break. Folks were nice, too :)

    Mango pomelo sago was pretty good and had chunks of real mango. My friend got the watermelon slush and said it was refreshing.

    Cute JOOY tea shoppe. Can't believe JOOY has expanded so much! I love their wonder grape. It has…read morealways been my go-to drink. Service is fast and drinks are consistent. There was no line, and they also have a kiosk to order upon entry. There's no table seating, but there are a few seats where you can hang out inside. It's a very small store, a grab-and-go type of spot.

    Jooy Tea Shoppe is a modern bubble tea spot that focuses on creative drinks, customizable options,…read moreand unique flavors beyond the usual milk tea menu. We walked into a casual setup with kiosk ordering that makes it easy to browse through the large menu and adjust your drink with different sweetness levels, toppings, and add-ons. The shop is more focused on quick visits rather than being a large café space, with some seating available but a feel that leans toward grabbing a drink while exploring the area. The variety of choices stood out, from fruit teas and slushies to matcha and specialty drinks. We tried the hojicha latte, which had a smooth roasted flavor and felt like a nice alternative to the usual matcha drinks. Their fruit-based drinks and slushies also stand out because they feel lighter and more refreshing, especially compared to heavier milk teas. The menu has a lot of creative combinations, so it feels like a place where you can keep trying different drinks instead of sticking to just one favorite. One thing we appreciated about Jooy Tea Shoppe is how customizable the ordering process is. The kiosk system makes ordering simple, especially when the menu has so many options that it would otherwise take longer to decide, and it makes it easier to experiment with different combinations. The pricing is a little higher compared to some traditional bubble tea shops, especially after adding toppings, but the drink selection and specialty options help make it feel different from a standard boba stop. The variety is probably the biggest reason to come here since there are many flavors that are not as common elsewhere. The service was efficient and the ordering process kept things moving, though the wait can depend on the crowd. Jooy Tea Shoppe is a fun bubble tea spot with a wide selection of drinks and plenty of customization options. The creative menu, fruit teas, matcha options, and seasonal flavors make it a good place to visit when you want something more unique than a regular milk tea. It offers a thoughtful, customizable drink experience that rewards exploration and repeat visits.

    ((3.25 stars))…read more stopped by here to grab a cold brew on warm afternoon. it's a small quiet modern coffee / tea drink shop. very clean bright well-maintained interior. not much seating as it is a fairly small space--a few seats to be had. there is a touchscreen to order as this location seems to be a one-person operation as there was a single employee on-shift. ordered a cold brew with no ice. several minutes later the employee came from the back with my drink. took my drink and noticed there was a fair amount of ice in my cold brew...i mentioned to the employee that i ordered the cold brew without ice as it was an option in the order process. since the cold brew is "cold" because it is pre-batched and refrigerated, not sure why ice would be needed. she replied that this is how they make/serve it despite my order preference. it made no sense to me, but whatever..."the customer is always right" is truly dead in the touchscreen ordering era lol. the cold brew tasted fine, but i really hate when places employ these tactics to serve less cold brew and save $s by pouring ice into the cup. just use a smaller cups etc. and let the customer make the choice instead of doing tacky stuff like this. anyway, this Nitro Tea location doesn't serve a typical coffee shop menu (drip, Americanos, Cortados, etc), so you're limited to its menu of signature coffee and tea drinks. this place is fine if Nitro Tea's drinks are your jam. however, NYC is a competitive coffee and tea landscape especially in the East Village, so this place would not be my first choice in the neighborhood for caffeine. nothing is wrong with N25 Nitro Tea, but it isn't quite "my cup of tea."
