CoCo Fresh Tea & Juice

Love CoCo bubble tea! Always great and refreshing drinks and friendly staff. Only downside is that there is nowhere to sit inside, so you have to grab your drink to go. Love their drinks and also adds variety to the area. No need to hike up to K-​town for your bubble tea fix when you can stop by CoCo!

Surprised. I see a few CoCo locations around but never thought anything of them because I prefer and have been a fan of another Boba retailer. I tried my first –CoCo Boba– at this location.
They don’t skimp out on the Boba balls inside the drink. There was a good amount of Boba in my drink. Other retailers give three sips and the balls are gone. My drink at this location had more sips per serving. And all the Boba quality was solid, nothing too soft, not too firm and no raw pieces, perfect. Maybe it was a one time thing or CoCo doing this on every drink just earned them a fan. I will surely try again at another CoCo or come back to this one another time because I liked my drink with more Boba balls in my drink and the quality was very good.
The drink was actually for a cold Chocolate (medium — the container size in cups is on display on what size, I ordered a 16oz.) The chocolate flavor was very good and apparent. I didn’t taste any bad chocolate taste or fake or powdery substance at all, could have been but I didn’t taste an off-​chocolate flavor. The entire drink was a 5 out of 5 good.
No tables or chairs available or visible restroom at this location. It’s quite small, might be able to sit by the window where there’s a bench like seating.
Service was fast and average. Information on ordering drinks is simple and displayed. (Price depends on type of drink/​flavor, size and 50 cents per add in. My drink cost $ 3.25 plus Boba balls made it $ 3.75 total)

Pros:
–If you’re dying for bubble tea, there’s a store here
Cons:
–It’s infuriating and funny at the same time. My friends ordered two bubble teas. The server gave them two bubble teas and one straw. LOL. When my friend tried to ask for a second straw, the guy seemed reluctant to give it and said, «Another one?» I almost cracked up right there. I finally did crack up when my friend tried drinking the bubbles through the straw and realized that the straw was too small. For those of you who drank bubble tea before, you know you need the thick straws, not the tiny ones. I eventually stopped cracking up when my friend flicked the clogged straw through the air and almost splattered tapioca and tea on my shoes.
Other:
–Come here for a good laugh. Ahh the memories.

The people here were looking outside checking out the rain more so than taking orders. A couple of people were actually sitting around drinking boba tea and eating chips when I came in to buy two bubble teas. I ended up ordering two taro milk teas with sago and no ice. A faded sign indicated you could get less sugar.
Still service was quick after the initial order delay. Store was way too warm though. Had I not had my hands full, I would’ve taken off the jacket. Pro: they take credit cards.

I came here twice before I even bought anything. There’s always a long line and they don’t accept credit cards for orders under $ 5 (I even tried going to a different CoCo location and they have the same minimum).
However, I finally did get a taro bubble tea and although it tasted alright, I wasn’t too impressed with the service. There was about 3 to 4 people behind the counter, and only one person was making the drinks, and he was painstakingly slow… That explains the long lines I guess! There were only 2 people ahead of me, yet the wait was pretty long.
If I’m REALLY craving bubble tea, maybe I’ll come back, but TBaar down the block had some better options and seems to be less sugary.

I’m from the Bay Area so I drink bubble tea like how I drink water. I was nervous about finding a tea place here but this place is so good. I get the jasmine milk tea with boba and it is fantastic. The boba is very sweet and chewy, and is by far the best boba I have tried here so far.

I rarely go to CoCo but when I do go, it is usually to accompany a friend or buy drinks for friends. I decided to give CoCo a try since my friend LOVE this place.
First impression, they don’t offer a lot of options. I decided to try something different opposed to the regular milk tea. I ordered the vanilla milk tea assuming that tapioca pearls come with it. Turns out, that is NOT the case. They charge you an additional 50 cents for anything you put in your drink. That does not fly with me. Most bubble tea place usually give you tapioca pearls free of charge. Had I known they charge an additional 50 cents, I would have walked the extra block to TBaar. The drink was not impressive either. It was not pleasing at all. An odd sweet taste that was just not right. I ended up trying it out halfway through despite telling myself that I spent $ 4 on it and I should finish it ($ 4 is money too!).
Never coming back here ever again, at least not to get myself something to drink.

I used to go to this place all the time for milk bubble tea or passionfruit iced tea.
Sooo good. I’m craving passionfruit tea right now.
The prices are super reasonable, and are packaged super cute and cool.
Small, clean place. Service was cool every time I went.
I miss it here.

I went here at night around 8:30 pm to get my milk tea boba BUT THIS BOBA PLACE HAD NO BUBBLES. What kind of boba place runs out of bubbles. Like make more in the morning. I wouldn’t write this review if it were the first time, but this has happened to me before. We all know that cocos also doesn’t have the best quality boba out there. Just avoid the sadness and tears and try to find another place. Or go here earlier in the day, cause they run out of bubbles.

Love this spot, I get bubble tea at least once a week and they’re a good price for good quality. The place is small and always packed. They’re also open late and very friendly. I recommend my favorite, taro milk tea with bubbles. You can ask for less ice and sugar also! They have specials through to the month so look out for those :)

$ 3 for a medium green tea boba.
Tiny little store ($ 5 minimum for credit card) next to DiDi. The boba is really good, a little smaller than I’ve had, but the green tea itself is really nice and really refreshing!

Yummy and refreshing treat to take around Time Square as you stroll through the chaos.
I got the ‘2 Ladies’ size medium which is Milk Tea, Tapioca, and Egg Pudding. Very creamy and delicious. It is a bit filling but I really enjoyed it. The tapioca was perfectly chewy and sweet. Yum.
My friend got the ‘Bubble GaGa’ which is Passionfruit Green Tea, Tapioca, and Lychee Jelly. She also said that hers was so refreshing and she would not let go of it. She said she’d recommend this drink to anybody whether you’re a veteran boba lover or boba newbie.
This location is very clean, easy to find, and not expensive at all. You can either chill here with your drink or take it for a stroll. Looking forward to coming back here again!

The boba was pretty good. The milk to tea ratio was just a bit too much on the milk side.

Always enjoy Coco bubble tea until today. My passionfruit slushie sucked way to many tapioca balls so I couldn’t really enjoy the flavor. On a side not I have had some good flavors from CoCo my fiancé tried the 2 ladies bubble tea and that was delicious, and I love their Chocolate Banana flavor bubble tea. But today I paid 6 bucks for something that wasnt satisfying at all.

*** Quick Service, Assortment of tea/​juice options ***
There are a ton of options at this place. There isn’t really seating unless you are okay with the small bar area. This is a very quick order and out you go type of place. Delicious and affordable.

Ahhh… bubble tea with perfect bubbles
One of my tricks when traveling is to try to stay near where my work takes me that also overlaps with a college campus. The reason: There is usually a bubble tea place around. I’ve been a fan of those tapioca pearls since shortly after they were invented and I was a kid in Taiwan.
CoCo offers a quick run with the standard flavors. Of special note is the boba were perfectly cooked and not too sweet like many places. Just perfect. And they had a very yummy black milk tea to combine it with. On top of it all is that it’s relatively cheap!
Service crew was both fast and polite.
Worth a visit… Or many!

Am I predisposed to loving bubble tea because I’m Asian? I certainly think so because I don’t typically like to admit to loving black balls being all up in my mouth but for CoCo bubble tea, I do. I really do.
Most of the time I will order my go-​to drank which is the regular milk tea with tapioca balls but sometimes I’ll go all out and treat myself to three guys. No, sickos that does not involve a gay foursome. ‘Three guys’ is the name of one of their drinks which has milk tea with pudding, grass jelly, and tapioca balls (OH MY!). I’m not sure how much sugar and how many calories these drinks have but I ready do not want to know. Now I hope I am also not predisposed to the diabetes.

CoCo serves up some great bubble tea for students nearby!
CoCo, in my opinion is best for juice and fruity drinks. The Mango Green Tea, Passion Fruit Green Tea are great choices here. Try something extraordinary like the Orange Lemon Grass Tea, it is quite refreshing! Drinks are more on the sweet side and I would ask for lightly sweeten, if you are not a sugary person. Their pudding topping is the best I had among other bubble tea stores.
Pick fruity drinks here!

Just in case you didn’t know, CoCo is a must go.
I have been a CoCo customer for three years, and for three years I have been drinking nothing but the best. The ingredients they use in their drinks are fresh, and the drinks themselves are refreshing. I’ve tried their bubble tea, slushies, fruit teas, milk teas (both hot and cold), yet I still feel like there is a lot more for me to try. I’m not sure if they switch up the menu seasonally, but every time I visit CoCo there is ALWAYS a new drink — which is a good thing because it keeps me interested. The original drinks remain on the menu whenever they introduce their newest items.
Two of my favorite drinks:
1. Vanilla Milk Tea– Delish! Vanilla is my favorite flavor. I can eat vanilla anything. But this tea just rocks my socks. I recommend trying the hot version, which is perfect for the chilly fall and winter days. If you try the cold version, please be sure to add pudding, and don’t forget to thank me later.
1. Taro Milk Slush– Upon one of my visits to CoCo I didn’t know what to get, so I asked a random person what their favorite drink was. I love when my random acts pay off. This drink is yummy. Hard to describe the taste, but the most accurate description would be to say it taste just like left over milk from your cereal.
I have yet to check out any other locations, but I will try to do that soon. I’m glad they have one in the East Village on St. Marks, so convenient.

If I could name one thing I miss from my trip to Taiwan is cocos bubble tea… coco was located everywhere in taiwan… Taiwan chain bubble tea shop! lucky for me i live in New York city! where they have coco fresh tea & juice almost everywhere in the city! :D! Woohoo!
i’m hooked… my mom told me i need to kick the habit ! do they make a patch… i tryed to get off this stuff but then i get bad headaches and want to hurt people…(*_*)
If you don’t want to go through the hassle of finding the right bubble tea shop then come to coco… You can never go wrong with coco… Their flavors for drinks aaaaaamazing! The tapioca can be a hit or a miss… depending on how long they boiled the bubbles… That only happened once when I chew into the tapioca and it was to soft… Thankfully the flavors for their drinks are always yummss… but it really all comes down to flavors… Five stars for me!
