Brother’s Bubble Tea

Standard bubble tea selection. Friendly staff and I’m glad to have them in the neighborhood!

Definitely not comparable to Kung Fu Tea, Quicklys, etc. I’ve been here 3 times already and tried the almond, coconut and regular milk tea. Way too sweet and I even ordered the «less sugar» option. It was also chalky and there were still flavored powder chunks at the bottom of my drink.

I had the brother’s milk tea. The flavor was fine, average milk tea. I was disappointed that their signature milk tea (Brother’s tea) was made by powder. I believe that any self respecting milk tea store should make their own milk tea. If I wanted powder milk tea, I would make it myself.

Got the thai iced tea. Nice liquid to ice ratio and they have rewards cards, like every other place! Haven’t tried the shave ice, that will be next on the agenda.

YEAH! A new bubble tea spot in my hood!
Brother’s Bubble Tea is located next to my go-​to sushi restaurant which makes it nice and convenient to stop by for a dessert drink after dinner.
The Red Bean Milk Tea was not what I expected but still delicious. (I expected whole red beans in the drink… but instead the red beans were blended into the tea. Fun!) The boba had an excellent texture and the drink was not too sweet– just as I requested.
Prices are decent, and they have different specials depending on the day and drink. I didn’t see it before I ordered this time… but next time I’ll definitely be trying the SNOW ICE!

The only place I recommend to get your slushy or bubble tea in this area. Place is awesome

I guess Jackson Heights needs a Bubble Tea place too, doesn’t it? Why should Elmhurst and Flushing get all the fun. Now, this place is not reinventing the wheel or anything. It’s not really any different from all the other (lower-​grade) bubble tea shops out there. It definitely gets points for seating, cleanliness, and newness. I don’t think it has been around for too long, and I think they will experience longevity because of it. I wish there were more fresh fruit options and less powered drinks. Overall, it’s not a bad place. The taro iced drink was actually pretty good!

Just having finished the bubble tea I ordered, I just had to post a review of this place. A lot of small bubble tea shops have been popping up and for the most part, they can’t compete with the chains (Kung Fun Tea, Chatime).
However, this doesn’t seem to be the case with Brother’s. I was pleasantly surprised at how delicious I found my drink to be. It was creamy and not too sweet, and wasn’t watery like I’d expected (I got the lychee green milk tea). They’ve also got lots of deals going on that will keep a customer coming back, which I am sure I will. Not to mention that the friendly staff (who spoke English well, I might add) made ordering no problem. I hope this shop will stay.

Excellent! Iv been to Bubble Teas in China and Taiwan at Brothers is right up there.
Try a snow ice, a classic Taiwanese treat

Watermelon slush is my new favorite. Love the bubble teas and toppings. What a great little place to have in Jackson Heights. I hope they are here to stay.

A month after my first review, I’m happy to say I’ve tried out a whole bunch of other drinks that they have and I’m still as happy as ever. The staff is as friendly as always and they’ve even rolled out a rewards card (which I will definitely take advantage of!).
The bubble tea is as always delicious and not overly sweet. This is definitely a place I keep going back to over and over!

So happy this place opened up. Huge choice of toppings. Very friendly service. Def a perfect place you can go for to chat.

I’ve got nothing bad to say about this place. They’re friendly, responsive and their flavors are great! They use Posmei brand products, including tea, tapioca and flavor syrups and there is a very distinct characteristic about them — flavorful and not too sweet, especially without sugar. They also have a stamp card, so you truly can’t go wrong.
PS: I’ve been noticing Kung Fu Tea’s bubbles are really tough and not chewy lately. Brother’s are spot on. Very chewy and stretchy. Just sayin.

Very awesome! A bubble tea place in Jackson Heights! I mean I can go all the way to Woodside for Big Bear Bubble tea, but now I don’t have to. This is a great spot to grab your favorite cold beverage and take a stroll. I ordered the avocado slush with milk and it was made fresh. It reminded me of the ones you can purchase at Filipino restaurants where they put condensed milk. Oooh sooo soo good! The only downside is that since it is an iced drink, it will drip on you due to condensation.
I arrived craving bubble tea after reading the names of the eateries on 37^th Avenue, yet I walked out with something else. They have a lot of different stuff on their menu that you can’t find elsewhere like the one I ordered and also fresh banana slush and fresh pineapple slush. I even saw a chocolate option for slush beverages. There is also extra stuff like toppings for 50 cents each like grass jelly and aloe vera that you really can’t find easily in other stores.
From what I know, they accept credit cards, meaning Visa and Mastercard, but not Amex. They also have a buy 9 get 1 free deal which makes me want to come back. Yep, debating between medium and large, and I thought medium to try it and also where is the loo? This place is cozy with several chairs and a few tables. It’s not meant for huge groups, since it is not capacious inside.

Love this new boba place on the avenue! The tapioca balls are made fresh daily, which is a huge plus in my book. There are a couple of cute modern tables to relax in, and the staff is friendly. They also have other items like shaved ice, and actual pudding that they’ll put in specialty drinks if you ask!

I’m so happy JH finally has bubble tea! Things are really changing in the neighborhood and it’s just in time for summer. I got to try the Taro bubble tea, my favorite, and it reminded me of childhood. I also want to try their slushes. There was a little girl in the store eating one and it looked amazing! Oh, and they also have wifi. Big Win!
