Teado

They allow you to sample the tea before getting it so you can adjust sweetness last minute. Super friendly owner and good, authentic Asian desserts ! Seating can be crowded at times though.

Tiny but excellent tea shop with great milk and bubble tea . The owners use high quality teas and let you pinpoint exactly how sweet you want your drink.

The staff here is really friendly and are more than happy to help you make your tea selection . They also have a loyalty card program. The tea quality is better than most bubble tea shops in Chinatown .

hot oolong milk tea 😍 if you normally get half sweet at places like kung fu or coco , get the full sweet here - they don’t load up on syrups . also they use lactaid for milk ☺️

I love it! And, honestly, find this a best bubble tea spot in the area and, probably, the Lower Manhattan in general. Great service! Try rose and grape .

Level of customization is incredible! I got champagne grape jasmine w/ lychee jelly ! They’re light on sugar. Very slow however bc everything is custom and fresh, and you can sample of your order.

The best bubble tea shop in Chinatown ; they rely on quality tea , not sugar and fake flavorings, and let you control exactly how sweet you want your tea .

Wow. What an experience - painstakingly specific preparation of subtle and delicious bubble tea , all in a super serene 1:1 environment.

High quality tea used in their drinks, you can taste the difference. Chrysanthemum pu-er was delicious!

Stumbled across this spot after being disappointed by many others who don't make coconut bubble tea . This place is amazing, not too sweet not too bland. It's perfect

The BEST bubble tea I've ever had. Jasmine green tea with bubbles - Strawberry flavor made with real strawberries .

goodness they have rose flavored bobba. ROSE . it's hard enough to find rose flavored gelato , let alone bobba. i will forever be loyal to teado.

Unique flavors with fresh ingredients , and they'll let you taste any add-ins you want. (Egg pudding is weirdly amazing, try it.)

I always come back to get their Genmaicha Clouddo!! It's their own special homemade drink. They have other flavors too!

Hands-down the highest quality milk tea in Chinatown, and in an adorable space to boot.

I'll go with milk tea . *Bonus* you can choose the sweetness (0% - 125%) if you hate or love the sugar.

Great for personalized bubble tea , you'll have a taste offered to make sure it's to your liking! HalfSugar#

Put a coin tip on the tray and gently tap it. Good things happen :)

Lactose intolerants, rejoice! This bubble tea lounge uses Lactaid milk exclusively in all of their dairy-based beverages.

The tea drinks are steamed through the espresso/cap machine! You can taste the teas with your tapioca & jelly drinks.

The sweetness level really is customized. I asked for barely sweet and the person making it offered me a sample of mine to confirm it was to my taste.

Delicious, and good quality teas

It was good, so good. The bubbles weren’t as ‘heavy’ as some I’ve come across so it didn’t feel like you were eating your tea .

Try the baby octopus onigiri . It comes with a glove to keep your hands clean .

the fucking best taro with egg pudding in NYC hands down game set and match . period

The grapefruit lychee aloe juice is great!

Such great milk toast . Soft and delicious. Warms you up.

When you ask for less sugar, and they'll let you have a taste before sealing the cup to make sure that it's to your liking!

This tea shop serves quality tea + tapioca drinks, skip the Kung Fu tea ! This shop is sooo much better.

Very nice family run place , don't forget to tip the cat!

Jujube longan is so good

It's the real deal. Best in NYC. Period.

These guys are pros. Best bubble tea in Chinatown

Awesome Condensed Milk with Toast !

Friendly service , and let's you adjust tea sweetness

The egg pudding is amazing! Get the 1A light ice.

The pu-erh milk tea is amazing.

All the milk here is from Lactaid. It's a little sweeter but worth it!

They close at 6pm on Mondays and Thursdays now.

Good milk tea . 50% sweet was right on the money!

WiFi password is their phone number!

Soooo friendly . Really great selection of teas . Try the lychee !

They use lactaid instead of regular milk for all you lactose intolerant bros

Best bubble tea in the area! 💖

great service, teas and slushes (aka smoothies ). so small you can miss it but it's worth the stop.

Watermelon Icy Juice : $3.50

The bubbles in my tea were mushy. Blegh.

Best milk tea in the neighborhood !

Earl grey with milk tea and bubbles

To-go place. No place to sit for work.
