Had to stop by and get my reward/credit from attending the Yelp Elite event for YAAS. I HAD to pick up more of their bread pudding which is still the BEST I ever had. I also picked up a peach dragon fruit drink and a jasmine tea. Idea k the dragon drink once I got home and hubby and I had the banana pudding for dessert. DELICIOUS! I am saving my jasmine tea for tomorrow am bc I have an early all day event to get to. So I have something ready. It wasn't busy when I went today since it was mid afternoon time. Since I was only one in store I was able to take some more pics and relax while waiting for my order. read more

Decent spot for bubble tea drinks. Iced strawberry matcha oat milk tea 8/10 It has good flavor and sweetness with 2 strawberry sauce pumps, light ice. No fresh cuts of strawberry but still good. Matcha slush bobo 7/10 The brown sugar flavor and boba were very good. The matcha flavor was ok. Good drink overall and I liked the texture. Iced Cafe latte 6/10 It says two shots of espresso but it's so light and watery at medium size with less ice. I would rather no ice and less milk just to get more coffee flavor. The coffee flavor is too watered down. read more

4.5 I liked their Iced Mango milk tea from a previous visit. I asked and was informed that though not fresh mango, it doesn't have the artificial mango taste. It's a creamy drink, with coconut milk and crystal boba. Pretty large drink size. Sweeter than I usually prefer even at 0 sugar, but returned for it again. Got a large Banana pudding. Definitely shareable and was really good. Not too sweet, real banana flavor. Their gelato cup is sealed under the lid; is wrapped in a thermal bag when ordered to-go. Many more food options now like croffles- sweet and savory, cookies, tarts. There's some seating. No restroom. Subway and bus stops nearby. read more

It was such a cozy spot that really hit the spot. I got a green tea boba with passionfruit flavor and an egg salad croffle. Everything felt like a super filling breakfast, and the whole thing came out to just $11. The drink was a nice tall iced one too. Service was pretty quick--I had my order in hand in like five minutes--and the staff was genuinely nice. I'd definitely recommend coming in the morning while it's still quiet. The place is brand new, so it's not getting much traffic yet, but once word spreads, it's probably gonna get packed. read more

As a lover of bubble tea, when I was in the area I stopped by Yaaas Tea. I noticed instantly that they sell food which is different than your typical bubble tea store. I wasn't there for food, so I just got a "Passion Dragonfruit refresher" with boba & lychee jelly. It was good. I love passion fruit & dragonfruit so getting it together was tasty! read more

Who says I'm a Yelp Elite? I am! Today I went here all by myself on a not so cold Thursday late morning to go to my fourteenth Yelp Elite Event feeling good that I got the regular milk tea, egg tart and banana pudding that it was amazing and delicious. The service there was very friendly and pleasant and thanks to the owner/manager named Amy. I couldn't agree more about it. Finally, I would definitely come back again next time! :) read more

Leah inspired me to write this review. She went above and beyond from the second we walked up to the counter. She was professional and friendly. The drinks she made were delicious. She was taking orders, making orders, and cleaning the whole store. She was so good at her job and giving recommendations for drinks, desserts, and ingredients, you would think she was the CEO of Yaaas Tea! read more

I was so happy to see Yaaas Tea open up in Queens! I've been to their other locations, and had checked them out during their grand opening. They are conveniently located by the train station and bus stop. I got here a little after 7 AM, which is when they open. I love that they're open so early, since most bubble tea spots don't open until 10-11 AM. This is great for a quick grab before work. Street parking was easy around the corner at this time. They have a couple tables and counter seating if you're looking to sit and chill a while, or even stay indoors while waiting for your bus! The service is very friendly and informative. I knew what I wanted to order, so I ordered at one of the two kiosks they have at the counter. I got myself an Iced Matcha Oat Milk Tea and a Chicken Salad Croffle. I barely waited 5 minutes. There were people who ordered pickup and their drinks were ready for them when they came in. The Iced Matcha Oat Milk Tea (light ice, 25% sugar) could use a bit more matcha, since oat milk has a strong flavor. There are other customizations you can make (such as boba or cream), so I wish there was an option to add more matcha. It wasn't sweet at all, which I enjoyed. I'll probably stick to the Iced Dark Chocolate Matcha Oat Milk Tea, which I got last time. The Chicken Salad Croffle was packed with a good amount of chicken salad. The salad is peppery, not overly sauced, and has a nice crunch of celery, all of which is complimented by the crisp and slightly sweet croffle. I ate mine over an hour later and it held its shape perfectly. Definitely a great spot to hit for your caffeine fix and breakfast (available all day), especially if it's along the way of your commute. read more

I had to go back & get the passion fruit & lychee jelly again. It was still still yelp week but I got my items for the yelp event already. I got an egg tart the day b4 and wanted more but they didn't have any food items available. Also the storm was coming so that played a part. It seemed like the person that helped me the day before but he wasn't as friendly. He was a little overwhelmed when I got there because they had to close early. My drink was still good. read more

I'm thrilled that Kew Gardens/ Forest Hill now has a boba tea shop! This is a brand I've followed on social media. I know they opened a location in Long Island. So, when my friend told me they opened one nearby, I couldn't wait to try their drinks. This is my second visit, and I haven't been disappointed. The service was great. They didn't take long to make my drink. I went early in the day when it wasn't busy. The place was quiet. I ordered an Earl Grey milk tea with coconut milk. I was surprised to see coconut milk as an option since it's rare at boba shops. I prefer it over whole milk, so I was happy to have the choice. The drink wasn't too sweet. It was just right. I'll definitely be coming back for more whenever I'm in the area. I also love the interior. It's cozy, and I especially love the blue and white color. read more

After a long day of weekend errands, we end it with boba. This isn't far from our home, so we made a stop here. There hasn't been any good boba by us so we were skeptical. To our surprise, it's actually very good and the people there were very nice. Amy was helpful and pleasant to speak to. She even gave us some cookies, and they were crunchy sweet heaven. I ordered a Jasmine milk tea with YAAAS creme. It was so fragrant and I couldn't stop myself from drinking it before taking a picture for yelp. 5/5 for taste, quality, service and most importantly proximity to my home (probably a bad thing to be honest) read more

Wow...my 800th review. Yay! Welcome Yaaas Tea to Forest Hills and Queens! They are known for their fresh boba made on every hour. The team has expanded from LI into Queens! Congratulations to the owner of the Queens location, Michelle Chan along with her 3 High School friends, and CEO, Kelly Zhou. The employees are welcoming and willing to help you if you are unsure of what to order. They have croffle sandwiches (crossiant in the shape of waffles with various fillings including tuna which is a new option), bobo drinks, refreshers, milk tea, and coffee. I got the iced caramel macchiato coffee with coconut and jasmine milk tea. Delicious as usual! Go check them out! Forgot to take a picture of of the iced caramel. read more

So good, I had to go back. This time for my son. He approved of the croffle and the caramel Milk Tea he requested. We reside closer to another location; yet I was at a UFT Summit. The packaging was perfect for travel with no spillage (cup holder at bottom). An appreciation for the function, quality and taste of products. I only wish there was more seating. I was lucky to have a sit down as my order was serviced. read more

First Yaas tea in Queens finally! I was super excited as I heard great things about the Long Island branches. I was so lucky to have met the owners/partners, and they're all so friendly. Yaaas Tea has the freshest boba. They make boba by the hour and it's so good. It's one of best that I've tried. They have fruit drinks along with other milk tea flavors. They also serve croffle sandwiches and thin and crispy cookies. I haven't tried the croffle sandwiches, but I'm a fan of their thin and crispy cookies. I personally like butter pecan cookies and my kids like the red velvet ones. They also have chocolate chip cookies which is also good. I like that it's not too sweet and it comes in a cute container so the cookies won't crumble. The crispiness goes so well with bubble tea. The place is so cute, there's a kiosk and also cashier. The back is open so you can see them making boba and drinks. It's very nice and bright. There's also plenty of tables and a bar counter. read more

Cute new bubble tea spot in the neighborhood. I stopped by on Sunday around 11am and there was no wait at all. The staff were really helpful and constantly checking in on us to make sure we had no issues ordering through their touch screen kiosks. It was their grand opening promotion, so all the cold drinks were 50%. What a steal! I got two drinks for around $7 after tips. They also gave us complimentary multi-wire charger-- so nice of them. I'm glad I made the trek to try this. For me, since I am sensitive to dairy, I got a dairy-free Iced Strawberry Matcha Oat Milk Tea. It was tasty and refreshing. It might not be my first choice for next time since you can taste the oat milk. But this definitely set a high bar for my next drink. We also got the Iced White Mocha Brulee with Boba. Boba was delicious--perfectly cooked and nicely sweetened. The drink was refreshing and tasty. It is a tad bit sweet if you finish the whole thing in one sitting. read more

I Iced Caramel Macchiato with Boba, which tasted like a Starbucks Caramel Frappuccino with boba. It was a tad bit too sweet for me, so I should have either adjusted the sweetness or picked another flavor. I really like the boba here, and I think they have the best flavor selection and tapioca in the area. I also had a sip of my friend's earl gray boba, which was good. She said the tea flavor/tea strength tasted Taiwanese, and she herself is from Taiwan. The service is friendly, and on a weekend, my friend and I got our order after about a 5 minute wait. read more

I wished this place had opened while I was still going to school in the area! I ordered passion dragonfruit refresher via the tablets at the giant tablets at the register. It was just me in the shop so the staff member prepared my drink at lightning speed. I got it at 75% sugar though I think I would lower it to 50% next time (personal preference). I liked that they seal their drinks so that it's convenient to place it into bags. The prices also are pretty inexpensive compared to the usual price at bubble tea shops. read more

Love Yaaas Tea. I wish I lived closer to this tea shop OR they open a shop in Brooklyn. I usually get their milk tea, especially their Jasmine Milk tea and it's creamy; not creamy as in thick, but smooth and definitely not watery. The quality of their drinks is top notch! They also have such great promotions going on. Also, the shop is right across from the bus stop and train station, so convenient! The service is also friendly and kind! The shop has a some seatings and it's never full, most people seem to take their drinks to-go. read more

I was only going to try two (one for me, one for my husband) but I couldn't help but to try three & don't regret it! But first of all, I love that the cups have a lid that's sealable (not sure if it's airtight or anything but I DO NOT suggest flipping it upside down to check ) I got the Earl Grey Milk Tea, Brown Sugar Milk Tea, Matcha Milk Tea-- no ice, 50% sugar, & boba on the side (I'm sensitive to caffeine but I got them at night so I asked for no ice & boba on the side & just had the boba) The level of sugar (50%) was on point & the boba was so good and fresh! I usually don't like the boba because it's hard or mushy but the taste and texture was perfect. Also, I'm not sure why but usually, if I leave a milk tea in the fridge, the milk starts separating from whatever is in there??? And I'm usually a little disgusted to drink it. BUT that did NOT happen to any of these milk teas. FYI, I literally had them in the fridge for a couple of days & drank one each day I will be back to try other things on the menu that are not drinks Yaaaaaaas Make sure you try Yaaas Tea & receive a grand opening gift before they're out of stock! read more

Yaaas was a brand that was mostly based in Long Island so when I got word that the new location was going to be in Queens, I was very happy for the neighborhood! I have been to most of their other locations so I know their brand very well and standard of quality. This particular store in Queens is quite special for a few different reasons. First off, the great expansion in to Queens is a big deal and I knew many people who made the trip to Long Island just to order drinks! The hours are a little different than some of the other stores but the management here knows the area and the customer base. The location on Queens Blvd is right near the local bus stop and subway so very convenient for commuters, students and those that happen to be nearby. For those who choose to drive, there is parking in the street (not directly in front due to the bus stop) but on the sides and further down Queens Blvd). They opened during the holiday period which is usually a slow time for most businesses but they rode out the storm and have made some good relations in the community as well. They are open very early at 7a and offer some snack and breakfast options (but it is actually all day breakfast for those who eat later) that include some delicious savory and dessert croffles. Each one is made fresh to order. I am a big fan of the cookies they sell., The 3 pack is the best deal and you will definitely be hooked once you start noshing on them. Classic chocolate chip and Red Velvet are the top in my book. This location has some room for indoor seating by the window or in the center if you are not in a hurry and want to relax with your drinks and snacks. Ultimately it is very efficient with kiosk ordering or you can order with a staff member. The most convenient way is via the Yaas tea app on your smart phone. The drinks are always ready by the time i arrived and there was a special discount code that could be used specifically for this Forrest Hills location (check with the store for details as some codes may have expired). My go to drinks are usually the the slushies like the Orea and the Matcha. i would definitely recommend to order ahead as those drinks take a little bit more time to make. The classic brown sugar brulee bobo is always a favorite and for something refreshing you cannot go wrong with their fruit tea selections. The tapioca pearls are always made fresh here on a strict schedule so no matter what time you order a drink you are getting fresh pearls in your drinks. The staff here is always very polite. The management team deserves special shoutout. Michelle and Amy are always so welcoming and at first I did not even know they were the owners of this particular location. They hustle and work hard when it is busy because they care about their customers. They were trained by Kelly so they are upholding the high standards of the Yaaas tea brand. This location is not the closest for me but I have made many trips specifically to Forrest Hills location because they are that good. read more

They are not kidding about the fresh boba every hour. After seeing the doctor early in the morning we decided to try their breakfast items and tea. Inside was small but cutely decorated. Unfortunately, it was cold inside as it was outside. Still they greeted us warmly. We ordered off the kiosk in the front. The iced white chocolate matcha oat milk looked interesting so we got a large with boba to share. I got the ham, egg, and cheese croffle (cross between a croissant and waffle) while my daughter got the Nutella and banana croffle. We waited a little for them to make the food. There were a few table inside the small store. When we got our sandwiches they were warm. Mine had a huge fluffy egg and gooey cheese. I wished there was more than a thin single slice of ham though. The outside was crunchy but not flaky like a croissant and slightly sweet. I prefer this to an actual croissant. My daughter said she like that they used a whole banana for her croffle. The tea wasn't bad. It did have the taste of oat milk. There were also strong notes of matcha and white chocolate. But it was the bubbles (boba) that were a surprise. They were some of the best bubbles we ever had. The temperature and texture were just right. We both enjoyed it. read more

Might be my new go to spot for cold drinks! The earl grey milk tea was so yummy and I think the tapioca they use is infused with brown sugar so less sweetness in your drink is probably the way to go for milk drinks. Also ordered the chicken salad sandwich croffle - very yummy even though I'm not the biggest fan of chicken salad. read more

I've had their brown sugar bubble tea and it was delicious so I decided to switch it up and try the fruit teas. I like how you can choose both the amount of sugar and the amount of fruit syrup in your drink. I got 2 pumps of fruit syrup and 25% sugar for both the passionfruit green tea and peach green tea. I ordered through the app and pickup was fast. The teas came in a nicely insulated bag which was very generous of them. The tea had a nice fragrant flavor but next time I'll up the number of pumps of fruit syrup. This will definitely be my new go to bubble tea place! read more

Ordered online. It was ready before I got there! Okay so I ordered the iced brown sugar shaken expresso Boba, with 1 pump brown sugar syrup, 1 shot espresso, coconut milk, sea salt cream and cinnamon powder. Omg! This is an incredible drink!!!! The Boba is fresh, they say they make a new batch every hour, it sure tasted like it! It was the perfect level of sweetness, bitterness, tartness, and temperature! This is the perfect drink. Also the espresso is strong! Everything went right! Highly recommend, with a caveat, you may crave it all the time! Buyer be ware! Oh, I ordered 2 drinks and they came in a nice insulated reusable sealable bag! read more

Boba is soft to eat which is a plus(not all store makes it as good ). My kid had the iced Caramel with brulee , which was pretty good. All the drinks are well prepared, not too sweet. Had their thin crunchy cookies too , pretty good. Cookies store in hard plastic containers which keep cookies fresh and whole, very thoughtful idea. I will definitely come back for other drinks.
