Yes yes yes! Loved seeing a YAAAS Tea in this shopping center when looking for something to do…read morebefore seeing the Michael movie with my friend for a girls night. I needed a little caffeine so I opted for my earl grey with boba only a tad sweet. It did the trick. My friend and I shared a banana pudding. That along with her espresso drink had her ranting and raving. I was extremely thankful they took our order right before they closed. Everything was lovely and happy to see some of my fav boba in Suffolk.

The last time I came to this Yaaas Tea location was for their grand opening and I'm not usually in…read morethis area hence why I haven't been back since. Yaaas Tea is my go to for boba because no other place makes boba like them! Their boba is made fresh every hour on the hour, is flavorful and therefore, tastes amazing! I was recently in the area (end of January 2026) for an appointment and had gift cards for Yaaas Tea purchased from Costco ($25 x2 gift cards for $39.99 - and there's sometimes sales on top of this!) so why not? I initially used their self serve kiosk to order but then realized the way the card scanner was placed, that there was no way to swipe my gift card into the reader which was kind of annoying. The employee who was there however, was more than kind enough to take a picture of my order and manually put in the order with the regular cashier at the front. I ordered a Strawberry Lemonade with Mango Popping for my son and he loved it. For myself I ordered a Taro Milk Tea with Boba which was delicious. For our food, I ordered a Turkey Egg and Cheese Croffle and an Egg and Cheese Croffle (for my son). Both were delicious, made fresh and very filling. Last time I had also gotten their cookies (very reminiscent of Tate's cookies) but when I inquired about them this visit, she said they were in the process of baking fresh cookies on premise! Super excited about that! There were a few tables in the front of the store and the whole store itself was clean, spacious and brightly lit. Plenty of free parking in the lot at the front as it's located in a huge strip mall. I will definitely be returning any time I'm in the area and craving a bubble tea and/or croffle sandwich!

This place is an absolute hidden gem and truly a must-try! From the moment we walked in, we were…read morewelcomed with warm and friendly service that immediately made us feel at home. The space is small but incredibly cozy and inviting, with a comforting atmosphere that adds to the entire experience. Now let's talk about the food--absolutely phenomenal! We started with the paratha roll, and wow... the rotti they use is out of this world. Soft, flaky, and packed with flavor, it perfectly held together the delicious fillings inside. Every bite was bursting with spices and freshness--definitely something I'll be dreaming about. Next up was the Dubai Love crepe, and let me just say: OMG, A MUST-HAVE! It was rich, sweet, and decadent in all the best ways, with the perfect balance of textures and flavors. If you have a sweet tooth, this dish will absolutely blow your mind. We also ordered the strawberry tea, which was so refreshing and fragrant--light, fruity, and just the right amount of sweetness. And don't even get me started on the pistachio coffee latte. Creamy, aromatic, and with a subtle nuttiness that elevates your typical latte experience--honestly one of the best specialty drinks I've ever had. Overall, everything we tried was absolutely delicious, and the entire experience--from the food to the service--was exceptional. I'm already planning my next visit. This spot is a true treasure, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for flavorful food in a cozy, welcoming setting. You won't be disappointed

My last visit (Friday afternoon) I ordered a Medium Wintermelon Milk Tea (you can get it without the milk), Grilled Chicken Garlic Noodles and a Grilled Shrimp Rice Bowl. Everything was delicious and very flavorful though I felt the Garlic Noodles were a bit on the saltier side and the Wintermelon Milk Tea was a bit too sweet (and I have a sweet tooth). There were a lot of flavorful chicken pieces and the shrimp came with about 7-8 pieces, also very flavorful. They have 3 different sauces that I was given since I was eating there and just returned it to the counter once done. My favorite of the 3 was the more liquidy one though they all tasted great. The place is located in a strip mall with a lot of free parking. There's some seating inside and one small table outside. It's spacious and clean. They have great background music playing and their unisex bathroom is spacious and clean as well. The food came out in a reasonable time and the staff (I'm assuming maybe the owners) were also very pleasant.

If you only order tea, the area to wait in the front of the store is on the small side, but you can grab a seat at a table while you wait.

We've found this surprisingly hard to find around Stony Brook. We usually have my inlaws bring food in from Commack when we want good Chinese, but we were really hoping to find a local spot that hits the spot. The other night we asked our nanny, who has lived in the neighborhood for a lot longer than us, to suggest a place for great Chinese. To our surprise she suggested Tai Chi. We were like, what? The bubble tea place? But she wasn't kidding, so we gave it a try. And WOW. We weren't disappointed! This is going to be our go-to place for great Chinese food standards. It was hot, delicious, good portion sizes, and the price point was right. Highly recommend for what we ordered, and looking forward to trying other menu items soon.

This particular YAAAS TEA in Hauppauge is my favorite. If I had an early lunch and want something to hold me until dinner while driving home, the store is right off the Long Island Expressway. I'm diving into Bobo in just a few minutes! Speaking of Bobo, every hour they make their Bobo fresh. What does that mean? After you have YAAAS Tea a few times, you know its the best. I went to another chain in New York City and their bobo pieces were broken? I said never again, I will only go to Yaaas. And the flavors slay! My favorite is creme brulee (with bobo of course) but I had a minding numbing good Tiramisu latte. The YAAAS Tea in Hauppauge is off the LIE with plenty of parking. Enjoy!

Since my roommate does not speak Chinese, we communicated entirely in English throughout the visit, and the staff at the front counter also spoke to us in English. I have been to this restaurant many times before and have usually left an 18% tip. This was my roommate's first visit. After we finished our meal, my roommate paid the bill but did not add a tip. After noticing that no tip had been left, the staff member at the front counter came directly to our table and asked my roommate, "Cash tips?" My roommate seemed surprised and responded, "No."This interaction already made us feel very uncomfortable and pressured. In addition, both my roommate and I felt that the service had not been particularly good. After that, the staff member shouted toward the kitchen in Chinese: "These two are freeloading! They didn't leave a tip!" Since my roommate does not understand Chinese, he did not know what was being said. However, I understood the comment and found it highly inappropriate, unprofessional, and disrespectful toward customers. 2026 年 5 月 31 号晚上7点左右，我跟室友来 Tao\'s Bao 吃饭，室友请客。室友不会说中文，我们全程都用英文沟通的，前台也跟我们用英语。我已经来了很多次，以前都给 18% 小费。室友第一次来，饭毕，付了款没有给小费。前台看到没给小费，直接跑到桌子前面问我室友 cash tips? 我室友愣了一下，说 No。这个举动已经让我们感觉非常不舒服，感到压力，而且我跟室友都觉得服务也不怎么好。然后，这个前台就用中文冲后厨大喊："这俩人吃独食！不给小费！"
