The Teapsy

This bubble tea shop has a nice mix of hot and cold drink options as well as some sweet pastry items to choose from as well. It has a good amount of seating inside. We ordered a coconut milk tea and a tres leches cold brew. It's a little pricy compared to the serving size but it was very delicious. Service was friendly and fast.

Police was nice and clean. Service was friendly probably the best bubble tea ever had. I got the coconut and strawberry and it was delicious. The Boba was nice and fresh just had some good looking desserts in there as well but I didn’t try those but that cream puff they have looks pretty delicious

Came in here to tame my child with strawberry bobba tea. And it worked. Until she dropped it 100 feet outside the store. My ice coffee was definitely way better than Dunkin’ Donuts. And those creme puffs were gigantic. Like Apple-sized. And super tasty. Weird how this place gets all 5 or 1 star reviews. I suspect shenanigans with the 1 star ones. Everything was just fine here. And friendly. Yeah, it’s expensive. Just like everything else is nowadays.

I recently ordered a bubble tea through the store's online website, and unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. The drink I received looked nothing like the image displayed on the site, which clearly showed it topped with whipped cream—a big reason I chose it. When I went back into the store to ask about it, the staff didn’t offer to fix the order or add the whipped cream. Instead, they simply said, “It’s just a picture,” and if I wanted whipped cream, he was going to charge me extra. which felt dismissive and unprofessional. This kind of response, along with the misleading image, amounts to false advertisement and left me frustrated with both the product and the customer service. I hope the store updates their images to reflect what customers are actually buying. The drinks I purchased did not taste well. This tea shop is not the same as before. Keep in mind it's a "Frappe."

I’m always a regular at teapsy, their beverages are always amazing. The works are so nice to costumers. overall they have the best drinks here and good sizes and prices. Best boba you will ever have!!

Worst bubble tea I’ve ever had. Visited this location while in the area. Inquired about the menu and customization options. They said they don’t do any customizations, meaning you can’t request light ice, extra milk, less tea etc in your beverage. I went for the safest option that I get when in doubt at all other boba shops. Brown sugar boba. It was hard chewy boba with a soggy exterior in a way too sweet syrup mixed with milk and ice. It was horrible and the best way I can describe it is like someone attempting to make it at home but missing completely. Plus they give it in a plastic solo cup overflowing through the straw hole. Very messy. Staff was also pretty dry and unhelpful

I really enjoyed this drink I tried The rose tea and the towel milk tea as well they were both lovely guitar was on the sweet side but I did like it. I added tapioca pearls (boba) & lychee jelly.

Had a lovely milk tea, but I gotta knock them at least one star. Definitely caught them red-handed selling Costco muffins for $5 a piece (because I literally just bought the exact same kind a few days ago). Still though, I would recommend their tea selections!

Might be an off day but it was my first time and only experience here. The jasmine milk tea look so watery it was sadd but the yakult drink isnt bad the bubbles were good and the jelly was nice. Just sadd about the milk tea. we drank some before the photo and the staffs were nice and friendly the inside was spacious.

M Matcha tres leches frappe slush $6.65- w/ mango jelly, matcha can be stronger, but decent, maybe I shuda chosen a topping that doesn't overpower the matcha

If you are up for some creative and fresh tea drinks, or craving for some sweet treats, the Teapsy can be a great choice. I have never seen stores that sell Ginsen infused tea before, along with other fun choices on their menu. For customers who have cash on them or have the Cash app, you will get extra discounts. As for ambiance, this is your typical boba tea kind of vibes place, and they do have quite a few seating options, not super tiny.

This frappe was so delicious. We came in placed our order and had a tasty delight within minutes. They have seating if you choose to sit and enjoy your beverage and they are very polite. However this is my first time here and looking forward to the next.

Not a bad spot... maybe I'll order something different next time; as the cold brew wasn't as strong as I anticipated or used to, as it seems watered down. The Rose Cream Foam was pretty amazing though. Nice and floral without being super strong. It was just enough to my liking. I think my next try will be one of the calamansi drinks as I love the sour flavor. Haha.

Drinks were super good. The bubbles had the perfect chew! White peach green tea was very refreshing. Drinks were ordered and made in a timely manner. They were also celebrating an anniversary and we got to spin a wheel and got some extra stamps to redeem towards a free drink. Plenty of seating indoors, clean, and nicely decorated.

Service is very efficient and quick. Very clean inside. The wintermelon tea was a bit sweet, but still good.

Great local business with its own individual drinks unlike any other tea or bubble tea in the area

Ordered delivery and had a great experience. The passionfruit green tea and peach hibiscus tea were both super tasty. Will try the Hong Kong coffee milk tea next time!

I've been ordering from here for years now and I still cannot get enough of this place. I always need to order two or three at a time so I have reserves in the fridge at home.

Love this place! The ube tres leches is my favorite. Friendly staff too! Swing by if you're in the neighborhood :)

My friend recommended this tea place since it's freshly brew tea and doesn't use powder. This is a small takeout place. You order from a tablet. In a few minutes your drink is ready. I decided on a rose earl grey milk tea. The flavor is well balanced. I can't wait to order another drink when I stop by again.

I love their vanilla cream puff, comparable to bibble and sip!! I hope they come out with more flavors. Their rose earl grey bubble tea is my favorite. I ask for no sugar because it is already a bit sweet. Those are my go to! Friendly workers too! Get their stamp card:) few seats inside- nice to stop by and sip on some bubble tea and cake/pastry with a friend.

I've been dying to go to the Teapsy since I moved to the area a couple of years ago. They always seem to have a great selection of bobas! With the weather so pleasant yesterday, I finally took a walk over to 30th Ave and stopped in. Their menu is extensive and the staff is really nice. I really liked my tea, however I was disappointed with the selection of snacks - they were all prepackaged items from Costco! Weakspy.

We were excited to try this Boba spot based on review and honestly we were kind of disappointed... The Taro Tea was clunky and didn't give you that refreshing feel you expect, the Grapefruit Jasmin Green tea was ok but a bit more bitter and earthy than expected and the Passion Fruit Tea was actually pretty good, sweet. Had higher expectations based on prior review and the location.

Teapsy definitely has a wide range of drinks, my favorite is the brown sugar bubble tea especially since you can get different tea bases with it! Usually brown sugar bubble tea places only offer a plain milk base so I love that there are many base tea choices. At this point, I come here every week to get a drink :)

They have so many enticing drink choices here, like their tres leche coffee milk tea, and a rum raisin milk tea! I was pretty stuffed from lunch so I chose a grapefruit yogurt drink, which I thought would be refreshing. The drink was refreshing but a tad too sour and watery for my liking. I also found the boba pearls to be too chewy in texture. I prefer them to be a lot softer. Maybe I just ordered the wrong drink and need to give Teapsy another chance.

I have been craving boba for a while and since it's been so long since I've been back to Teapsy, I figured today was the day. I placed my order online and less than 10 minutes later, I headed over and my drink was already ready! I got the Regular Iced Lavender Rose Milk Tea (~$5). The regular size is 16 oz. I got it with less ice and 50% sugar. I absolutely love lavender and rose, so I knew this drink would be right up my alley! And I was right. The mix of these 2 floral flavors surprisingly went well together. The drink was creamy and the perfect amount of sweetness. I didn't change the milk option, but it's nice that you can do that at no additional cost! All in all, Teapsy is a solid spot to check out for all your boba needs! They have a unique menu and delicious drinks. You will not regret it.

One of my fave bubble tea spots in Astoria. There's just something about their milk tea that tastes different from other bubble tea places, and it has to do with the sweetness. My personal go-to is their tres leches coconut milk tea. They even have a rewards card that if you buy 10 orders then you get a 16 oz order free.

Drinks have declined which is unfortunate. Boba consistency is off and flavors taste artificial. It's equivalent to that of quickly now which is NOTa compliment.

I find some of the messages I get on yelp CREEPSY I get a bit disturbed and then I can't get to SLEEPSY Some Boba I throw out, but this one i wanna KEEPSY Because I love the menu and the products at TEAPSY When you taste the drinks here, angels will get WEEPSY There's other good Boba but the price is pretty STEEPSY I spent last night with your mother, but we didn't SLEEPSY Anyway, come and try the Bubble Tea at TEAPSY! WHAT Apparently, everybody in the club's getting Teapsy. This is one of the most unusual and Innovative menus of any place that I've gotten Bubble Tea in my whole life. It has a global feel, like your mother. The girl working here was a total angel. She hooked me up with a couple of very interesting drinks. She had a sarcastic New York attitude and I really liked it. I loved their drinks as well. The Filipino Lemon Tea is very interesting and tasty and unusual and not too sweet. Loved every sip. Their milk tea was also excellent. Very yummy and I'd love to try more things off of this excellent menu. Definitely a five-star bubble tea destination in Astoria. For innovation, decor, service, and products as well. So I hope my rhyming won't bore ya And I'm sorry I tried this before ya But if you want some Boba Your search is now over Come straight to Teapsy in Astoria!

Got the sakura rose milk tea and the lavender rose milk tea. I got minimal sugar and it wasn't too sweet unlike other boba places that are crazy sweet even with reduced sweetness. I can definitely taste the hint of sakura but my favorite has got to be the lavender rose milk tea. The lavender wasn't too overpowering but still noticeable. Boba isn't very sweet but has good texture. I'm a bigger fan of honey boba and a sweeter boba taste, but I can see how some people might just want the sweetness from their own drink. Staff is great and very friendly. Participated in their 3 year anniversary raffle and got a free drink. Seating is limited -- about 9 seats ( 3 x pairs and a counter of 3) Will definitely be back. This place is so cute.

The staff is pretty cool so I really, REALLY wanted to like this place but I couldn't. Really, I tried about 7 different bubble teas and they all were a no. I mean, it wasn't the worse so it gets 2 stars, but it's a gimmick tea spot. It wasn't meant to be good, but provided a photo op for our Astoria Instagrammers. (Lol that's a job now from what I overhear the poor staff have to listen to.) I will still randomly go in and grab something just to see if it has gotten better but it isn't worth it. Go down to Sunberi and get a bubble tea there. Basic, taste great and although the staff has changed (miss the originals owners), it's still pretty good! EDIT: Going to have to drop the review from 2 stars to 1. Seems the owner is a bit more of a tool then I remember. Posting his response here! (Comment from Shufan L. of The Teapsy New York Business Owner7/20/2020 Sorry you didn't find any of our 7 drinks good. But We are happy that you find your soul mate with Sunberri's $1 bubble tea. Update: You are what you drink. And btw, no need to talk to us. We have nothing in common to talk about. Thank you) (Cute; cheap shot to Sunberi huh? You sure seem like a mature owner haha! To be clear, Sunberi doesn't have $1 bubble tea, but I'm guessing that's what you think of them huh? Cheap and not worth you time? I sure wouldn't have the face to talk if I was you though. If a $1 bubble tea can beat 7 of your drinks, I think you need to go ask for pointers rather then come off bitter. Maybe two stars was too gracious for you. Humbleness will serve you well. Rating adjusted to reflect.)

yum!! cute little bubble tea shop in astoria that has a bit of a unique twist with their "popular drinks from around the world" selection my friend got the brown sugar boba and i got the guava yogurt fruit tea, both of which came out fantastic. i was skeptical bc this was my first time trying that combo of fruit and milk but it was reaaaalllyyyy good!! the total came out to about $12 they also have a rewards program (card punching one) which i thought was a good incentive to keep going back to try their many flavors, a lot of which i haven't seen in lots of other bubble tea spots! i wish they had seating but that's just a personal preference. def worth trying out this spot!!

Love The Teapsy! As there's not much options for bubble tea in Astoria and the neighboring neighborhoods that sell high quality boba other than Elmhurst/Woodside. They have a variety of flavors and different jelly options, including mango and strawberry jelly add-ons. Usually there isn't a big wait or a lot of people as it seems that bubble tea isn't that popular in Astoria. Service is on point and price range is decent for New York standards. Currently my favorite tea/drink spot in the neighborhood. Try their milk teas! Flushing standard approved! Credit card accepted. No bathroom. Small tables. Don't forget to collect your stamps for a free drink and fame in their binder of regulars! Drink up!

customer service: Mask enforced. Fast order. If you want there specialty drinks then you would have to order before hand prior to coming. ambiance: No music. trendy interior. No outdoor dining. Take out only food: * Matcha latte w/ oat milk and tapioca: $6.43 for a 12 OZ. This place probably has the best tapioca. soft and squishy consistency, not hard. The matcha had a grainy texture. I added honey and more oat milk when i came home and it tasted good after. overall: Fast order without online ordering but will have 50 cent surcharge if ordering in store. Best tapioca thus far. Has an option of various milks. Have more options if you order online. Pretty good boba. I'll probably order from here again.

Really excellent peach fruit tea with mango jelly! I got 30% sweetness and regular ice. I'd probably recommend less ice.

Teapsy was a nice find in Queens! When we entered, we were immediately hit with the aroma of tapioca, which increased my confidence in the quality of bubble tea I was going to get! I got the Grapefruit Jasmine tea (25 sweet, w/ bubbles) and my friend got the Passionfruit Green Tea and we both loved it. Not only could was the fruit flavoring not too sweet, we could also taste the tea underneath. Although my tea was 25% sweet, it was actually the perfect amount of sweetness, which is rare to find. Service was quick since we were the only customers in there. We stayed for a little to drink our tea and there was plenty of high stool seating.

They are quite possibly the ONLY bubble tea place open in this area (Astoria/LIC) during the pandemic. They are open on weekends from 12-8. I ordered for pickup around 4 and the owner said they were starting to run low and could close earlier than 8. I usually order the Original Tres Leches milk tea or the HK milk tea. Consistent and delicious every time I get them! Their bubbles are also the right amount of chewiness. Depending on the day, sometimes I drop down to 50% sugar but it isn't overly sweet at the regular level either. I have also tried the rose milk tea and calamansi fruit juice but didn't find it to my liking. Original is best!! You can place an order on their online website and pickup in 10-15 minutes. You can also order for delivery using DoorDash, Uber Eats, or Grubhub. They have chairs inside to block customers from stepping all the way in and maintaining at least 6 feet. You let them know your name and they place it on the chairs/table for you to grab and go. Seamless and easy process as well as safe! Please support Teapsy!

Had to grab a quick drink so decided to try this place out. Love the set up, the back counter where the staff stands is legit six feet away from the front counter where you place your order and pay. The peach green tea was actually pretty good, it tasted better than it looks 7/10

I go out of my way for this place, the staff is so friendly and it's the only place I've ever seen Brown Sugar Boba Frappe. I absolutely love this drink! I truly hope the don't get rid of it any time soon as it is a limited time drink. I have tried other drinks from them and they are also just as good. So it wouldn't stop me from coming back if they don't keep it.

I appreciate Teapsy for taking social distancing seriously and protecting its employees from direct customer contact. You can walk in and order from a shortened menu w/ no customization options. Payment is done far away from where regular checkout was, through a chip reader. Thai milk tea w/ chewy tapioca balls hit the spot!

I was pretty disappointed here in terms of the flavor of my drink. I tried the lavender rose milk tea and I don't know why but i just couldn't taste those flavors... maybe it was the tres leches milk or something but some ingredient felt very pungent in an off putting way. I love the ambiance with the globe on the wall and I like the idea of having a global range of teas highlighting different countries and cultures but I don't think the tea itself spoke to me.

Tried their tres leches milk tea with grass jelly... had good tea flavour to it... you can definitely taste the fresh milk in the blend. Not a fan of the fresh milk, but would like to come back to try their non-milk items.

The Teapsy has been my go to spot for bubble tea since moving to Astoria in 2018. I recommend the Lychee Tea & Rose Sakura Tea with bubbles &/or lychee gel. You can customize the drink size, percent of sugar, & how much ice. If you order through their website for pick up, there's no surcharge. They also have a punch card for every time you order. I think after the 10th drink you get a free drink. Anyways, love this spot. Fresh tea, always delicious. My go-to spot for a "treat yourself" day. Sorry, I have no pictures of my bubble tea. I always finish my drink during my walk home from this spot. So good!

Simple place that sells drinks(bubble tea) and a few selection of pantries. I saw some great reviews online as well as on Yelp but I would never come to a conclusion of a such disappointment. I got the Sakura Rose Milk tea with 25% sugar. That was the recommended drink on the menu. I mean it was quite expensive which was around $5 for a small similar to the price in Manhattan. It had really strong tea and rose flavor but a bit too milky. It was good until I felt a sandy feeling in my mouth. It was from the huge amount of undissolved sugar left on the bottom of the drink. Either the person that made it wasn't in the mood or the drink was made like this. Regardless, I don't think I will return to this shop after this experience since there are so many other bubble tea shops out there. If you are in Astoria, Tea and Milk will be much better.

The service was great, a very friendly man made my order, no complaints there. I ordered the tres leches tea with the bubbles and I wasn't impressed. Don't get me wrong, it tasted good for bubble tea, but there was no tres leches. Not even dos leches. It should be called a little bit of leche bubble tea. I'll be back but I think I'll stick to my favorite--Taro. (They have Apple Pay and you can pay with your card, but there's a $5 minimum so I was forced to order the large. It came out to $6.80. Pretty expensive for basic bubble tea.)

This is my favorite bubble tea place. I've tried a bunch of other bubble tea places around my college which was in Manhattan and also around my area in Queens, and this still takes the cake. My roommate and I came here and have also ordered it on uber eats. When you go to the place in person, you can order inside but they do also have an option for you to order online and then wait about 10 minutes and your drinks will be ready. I honestly like to set up with online ordering, there were a lot of customization options and ordering online was just the best way to go about it. I got a taro milk tea and the flavor was amazing. I was able to get it with oat milk. I also added the tapioca bubbles which tasted amazing! If you are in the area I highly recommend trying this place, it will not disappoint.

A medium HK coffee milk tea with boba cost $5.93 (no tip). Very average flavor. Boba was very hard and needs a little bit more sweetness to it

First time visiting here today, though I've been curious about this place for a while now. I was pleasantly surprised with this small shop. I had ordered the Rose Milk Tea and their Taro Milk Tea, let me just say..... With the first sip of the Rose Milk Tea (L $6.20) I think I died and went to heaven, it was like falling into a milky bath of rose petals (...I would have happily drowned ;))!!! :D the floral element was very apparent which was great since a lot of other places dull it. The Taro Milk Tea (R $5.60, tapioca extra $0.60) was good too, although I would say the taste experience was closer to your average Taro variety. I like that their tapioca has a slightly chewy centre too :) I would have loved to have stayed sipping on my tea since the interior had well-spaced seating, even with my baby in his stroller. I loved the map on the wall showing which teas were from where too. The staff that served me was very helpful and knowledgeable when offering recommendations. I'll definitely be back for more :D

What a wonderful addition to the neighborhood ! Just what we needed ! Beautiful space , Great Wall for selfies (thank me later ;)) Customer service is exceptional , very helpful and nice ! So far everything I have tried I am in love with , my top faves are the earl grey bubble tea , oolong tea , tres leeches tea , matcha latte And the tapioca balls ... OMG Make a long story short I already got my 10 th free tea and that was in just a week , problem much ? Yes lol Go to teapsy and get teapsy baby ;)

So glad i stopped by to grab a tea from this new spot on my way just to sit in traffic. There's a huge variety of tea choices and you can customize them on top of that. I got the sangria tea with bubbles and also the mojito tea with bubbles also. Both were so delicious! the bubble are super fun to suck out and eat. they kind of taste like coffee actually. Two teas were about $10, a little pricey but there's an aesthetic to it. I would totally come back here especially in the summer for a nice refresher.

I love this place! I've already completed one stamp card and I'm almost done with the second. Goes to show how much I love this place. The workers that attend me are friendly & have no issue explaining what certain drinks taste like (like if it's a strong flavor, more floral than fruity, similar to another flavor, etc.). I love how the moment I walked in one day, the guy at the register told me the guava yogurt drink I've been dying to try out was finally in stock. (Sorry, you'd think I'd know their names by now bc of all the times I've been here.) Was the guava yogurt drink worth the wait? In my opinion, YES. It's different from the other fruity drinks I've had, and it's not an overpowering sweet taste, but you can still taste a guava flavor. It'll be one of my go to flavors when the weather gets warmer, for sure. But my absolute favorite tea that was recommended is the peach hibiscus. Hot or cold, it tastes SO GOOD. The tapioca is also made perfectly. Not too chewy, not too hard, not overly sweet, not plain, not bitter-- just right. I have yet to try the other toppings, but I'll get there. I'll try it all some day. The bf approves of the jasmine milk tea (hot and cold), and he says it's just as good (possibly even better) than Ten Ren's jasmine milk tea. I appreciate the fact that any drink that is made with milk can be subbed with oat, almond, soy, or coconut milk. I'm never there on time to taste the muffins or other baked pastries, but the one time that I was-- the blueberry muffin was moist & the right amount of sweet. 10,000 stars for you, Teapsy.

Have never had a bad experience here! Especially love the peach tea with mango popping boba!

NICE! Location: If you are familiar with Queen's comfort. Then you will easily find this place! Store is small but clean. They are very dedicated to bring new flavor in this bubble tea industry. Drink: I had their bubble tea and five grey of mojito. Bubble tea is refreshing. They did not go for insanity amount of milk. On the contrary, their bubble tea preserves the essence of tea- fresh and herbal. I love it. The bubble is chewy as well. I would rate their bubble as some of the best tropical I've ever had so far I also, wanna to highlight their new invention - five grey of ... version of tea. Very fun. I forgot to take pictures. But go there before Aug 30th, 2016. They have buy one get one free for their opening session! Overall: pretty good, but bit far from ... manhattan tho

I truly appreciate it when a place has a very chill vibe, great menu, and excellent customer service. This relatively new place meets all those criteria. First, the place is very clean. I really dig the simple decor as well. Second, the menu is really diverse, and is a good competitor for the traditional bubble tea vendors. Even before I read half of it, I knew I would have to come back for another round another day at least. The staff were very friendly, and made my order very quickly. I would highly recommend people check this place out.

Great bubble tea spot in Astoria! Tapioca bubbles are hard to perfect but these are the right amount of chewy. Flavors of tea are endless so will definitely be back to try more!

Ordered tres leche ice coffee with bubbles. Soo good and they actually cook the bubbles just right! Not too slimy and not to dente. Coffee is perfect! Not to sugary - just right!

Pretty good! We ordered this via DoorDash during the COVID pandemic and it really hit the spot! I got the taro tree leches milk tea with bubbles and pudding. The taro was creamy and not too artificial tasting. The bubbles are on chewier side (so a little hard) but I liked it still. I recommend 50% sugar and less ice. We also got the lychee green tea with lychee jelly. Yum! The tea flavor really shines through with the lychee fruit flavor Overall really yummy and I'd recommend if you are craving some bubble tea delivery in the area
