Lychee green tea w/ tapioca
Gianna S.

This spot is really convenient just 3 blocks south of Columbia's campus and close to the 110 St subway (1 train). It is small inside but there are a few tables and a counter to order at the back. There are a lot of different milk and non-milk/fresh tea options and more than a dozen toppings to choose from. Although there are options to customize the sugar, I ordered my drink with the lowest sugar option possible and it was made with full sugar anyways. The drinks are SO SMALL for the price!! The small size tea with boba cost $7 and was literally the size of my palm.

So I find myself back very near Columbia University again and decide to drop into Tea Magic as I have pasted it so many times in the past, I was a warm Saturday night and as I enter I notice that the shop is empty. Well I initially think...great no waiting. I look at the menu and that have a nice variety of drink options. But why hasn't anyone else come into the shop? I place my order (Black Milk Tea, Boba and some salted cheese action on top). They ask me what size and then point to their cup sizes. Their medium is like a large in most places and they large is looked like a 1/2 gallon. No one needs that much. Maybe its for a contest like if you drink it in 30 seconds you get a t-shirt. I get the medium and then the young lady behind the counter tells me the price.....$9.00?!?!? Well now I know why no one is in here. Glad I did not got for the large....I would have had to take out a loan. Now my expectation of this drink was now much higher. I have to say that it had great tea flavor and the boba and salted cheese were very good. Was it $9.00 good. I don't think so. I am taking off one star for the price. Other than that the drink was good and the inside of the shop was nice.

Brown sugar matcha latte
Kylie L.

Pass by here pretty often but never got a drink here. Finally stopped by this afternoon. I wanted a brown sugar matcha latte with boba and saw they were advertising this exact drink on their window along with a line of other matcha drinks. The drink came out quickly, cost almost $8 for a small. Boba prices have gotten crazy. Boba was chewy, could have been cooked just a little longer. The drink itself was too sweet. At first i thought it was bc of the boba but it was too sweet all the way through. Matcha flavor was there but I wish it was a little richer. Would ask for 50% or even 25% sweetness in the future. Overall enjoyed the drink. Am not convinced to stop in for sure next time but also not dissuaded. Would stop in again if they offer another drink I happen to be craving

Passion Fruit Fruit Slush
Caitlynn Y.

uhhh how have i not had like any boba places nearby. well i wanted boba and i didn't want campus boba so i ventured off campus to get boba and the closest place is this place so i went in and ordered a passionfruit slush with crystal boba. they got my order wrong and gave me popping boba but when i realized i walked too far away from the store and was too lazy to ask them to fix my order. i lowkey think it was expensive at cuz why was it $9 and then i go back to oc and my BLENDED drink was $6. oh well! it's my fault for living in nyc. it was a decent drink but it wasn't that refreshing so i don't think i would go again.

Horrible! I don't write reviews but I'm extremely disappointed that I have to advise the rest of you to save your money and not buy from this place. I ordered an "oolong milk tea" but this tastes more like sugar and milk. Steam Bun (pork) is not worth it, tastes like plastic and the inside was rock hard! Had to throw out the buns because i knew if i couldn't bite it my stomach wouldn't be able to digest it. Do yourself a favor and avoid a trip to the ER guys. Food quality is not worth such expensive pricing. Ridiculous!

Okay, part of this was my issue. I ordered the brown sugar milk tea, which has pictures of tapioca pearls in it. The picture does say "toppings not included" but not being someone who gets too much boba tea, I didn't realize that meant the tapioca pearls in the picture. However, the thing that upset me enough to write a negative review in times of COVID was them sending me a very tiny slice of cake, it was about 1/3 of the size pictured on seamless. It was a $9 cake! I'm unemployed, this was a splurge. I reached out to magic tea when I got my order, offering to send a photo and they said they were unable to do anything for me. I will say the peanut butter explosion was good, but I am soured by the whole experience.

menu

The tea is lovely but I boba could use some improvement. I got the jasmine green milk tea (50% sugar)with boba and in terms of taste it was delightful and refreshing; however several of my boba were too chewy and slightly dry. The interior is standard and nice, not the best place for working. Their sizes are interesting, the large is insanely huge! lol

Mango Green Tea
Jessie B.

Delicious bubble tea! I've never been to the actual store but I've ordered their tea through Uber Eats several times. Their mango green tea is delicious and my brother told me how much he enjoyed the passion fruit slush. Would highly recommend if you're in the area or can get delivery.

Their opening hours
Hee Ran H.

I been to tea magic in 72nd broadway so tea magic on 110th cathedral Broadway didn't disappointed me either. The workers were extremely nice which was a big plus toward to this review. I got the Thai tea with grass jelly and pudding for extra cost of each. The amount they gave it was a lot. I asked for 25% sugar and she was like sure why not. Than i also ordered lychee black tea but according to the menu they had lychee green tea. I told the lady in the front can i get with black tea instead and she was like sure. All uniform essential workers will get a 15% off through walk in only. They have this punch card where you get 10 stamps and you will get $3 off if I'm not wrong. The inside well organized, they also sell bottle drinks, macarons for $2 each, they have pudding, and more. If you order drinks online I believe you cant ask for stamps because when I ordered online through 72nd tea magic seamless they were like I cant give you stamps. Overall it was great experience at this location.

Passion Fruit Black Tea
Marian F.

Who doesn't love a boba spot that delivers quickly! If you are in the morningside heights area and a boba tea fanatic, than this is definitely a spot to check out. I got my standard passion fruit black tea with boba and it was delicious, not too sweet and they were very generous with the boba. Plus the price is just right! Definitely a great boba spot.

Medium honeydew with boba, about $5.60
Tina S.

This place is great in terms of the location, especially if you're a Columbia student or employee. I like their honeydew, lavender, and rose flavors. The lavender and rose flavors seem like they are fresh and made with real flowers/plants rather than powder. I think the price point- small lavender tea with boba is $6.53 which seems steep but it's worth it for the flavor. I noticed recently they changed their cup to a mini stubby cup for the small, which I think is super cute!

Strawberry Banana Nutella Crepe
Juan D.

Place was kinda cute & bubbly but i was so disappointed with the Strawberry Banana Nutella Crepe that i got. Not only is it $14.15 (including tax) but it was very thin and messy .. i eat crepes often & i know how they should look & taste like but this one was drowned in "Nutella" i couldn't even see the crepe. Not only was it drenched in Nutella but it seemed like the Nutella was watered down cuz it was very liquidy & Nutella is thick & rich .. it didn't taste right. There were very little strawberries & bananas too. Also i literally just walked 60 feet outside the shop to eat & found out it wasn't even warm .at all! Hope you can understand my disappointment but if im paying $14 for a crepe it better be good or have at least a good presentation.

a neon sign that says tea yes you maybe
Lucy M.

Got my taro bubble tea with almond pudding. I had never noticed pudding as an add on option before and was curious, and it added a nice creamy sweetness to the tea. It wasn't thick, like your standard vanilla spoonable stuff is. In fact I couldn't even see it, it blended in completely. I'd love to get this again.

See all

Berries and juice that's kick ass cool. Cool Fresh Juice Bar is a very small place. It however is…read morevery big on taste. Açaí and more. This is pretty fucking good and not extremely expensive like many other places like this. Hard to find because the name isn't on the building. It was the correct place luckily for me when I came by. This is located on Broadway at 101st on the Upper West Side. Beware there's only room for a couple of customers. Order a smoothie or a bowl, and they make it fresh. It's about $11 for a bowl. The prices are decent. I had the Açaí Peanut Butter Bowl. This came with the frozen pureed açaí, and was topped with coconuts, granola, and peanut butter of course. It doesn't have any room for seating inside because it's such a small building. It's takeout only. That's okay because the Hudson River waterfront will only be a few blocks away and that's a cool place for eating bowls and such.

Very unassuming, small shop with amazing and reasonably priced smoothies! My go-to is the Cool…read moreFresh Shake with non-dairy milk, which really hits the spot especially after exercising. This smoothie has the perfect combination of avocado, spinach, cucumber, banana, and peanut butter. The staff make it super creamy (not icy at all) and you can always taste the flavor of avocado and peanut butter, but they do not overpower the drink. The large size is usually sufficient for a meal and keeps me full for a few hours. The staff are always welcoming and accommodating; they always confirm your order and choice of milk in advance. While the shop is clean, it is very small so there isn't much seating inside with only one stool, but they provide bags for grab and go.
