CoCo Fresh Tea & Juice

I love bubble tea and have had a lot of it, so I have pretty high standards, and let me tell you that CoCo’s is THE BEST… The price is pretty average for Manhattan Bubble Tea, but it is so good. They have all the trimmings and options you can imagine.
They take credit card for $ 5 or more orders.
There is ample seating inside, very cozy and relaxed, i highly recommend.

Nice sized place. workers are friendly. Prices are good. Good selection.

Nice place to work: there’s free wifi, good bubble tea, and I believe outlets as well.

I’ve ordered taro milk tea with coconut jelly yesterday. It was very delicious and I love it pretty much. Honestly it was more tasty than other store those I had been. It was the best milk tea I ever had.
Additionally the service was good. I’ve experienced nice services. All of employees were very polite and patient.
I love this place, and I must’ve come back again.

OK let me put it out there, again. I love me some bubble tea. Double the bubble is the only way to go. I love cold iced tea with some tapioca pearls, some jelly, or some crema. Now, crema is this delish topping of just salted whipped milk or something like that. It is both sweet and salty at the same time and goes SO WELL with an iced glass of tea. It is my jam. I found out about this when I was recently in San Fran. Unfortunately, no where in the ‘burgh has this tasty topping. I keep looking but have not found it at all.
Imagine my surprise when I am in NYC and I see crema on the menu. I busted out with a loud, «hell yes!!!» surprising both the cashier and my friends and then proceeded with a little dance/​song that I made up right on the spot.
Yes, I was that excited. And yes, I was that embarrassing. Granted this was the same day as the NYC Santa-​Con so maybe I wasn’t the most obnoxious person to come into their place of business. Or at least I hope…
I ordered the salty cream black tea. Damn… it hit the spot. This was almost like the first experience back in San Fran. The one in San Fran had a sweeter aftertaste but this one was still pretty good. They also had bubbles. Oh yea, that is why we went here! The other two places on the block RAN OUT OF BUBBLES. How do you have a bubble tea place and run out of the bubbles…
The tea was brewed very well and did not have a bitter taste to it. Sometimes those late night orders have the aftertaste of the day mixed into them. This one tasted fresh. SO FRESH. I loved it. I enjoyed it the entire time trying to find a cab and in the subway home when the cabs failed. I am so happy that luck brought us to this joint.
This tea place will now be on my list of places to go when I am in NYC. It has the tea I crave but on the closer coast!

This is my spot everytime I wait for my friends before dinner around st marks area. This place have chairs & tables that you can enjoy your bubble tea & chill. I always get the regular bubble tea or the taro milk tea. The hot one is good for winter too. Price is reasonable for $ 3 medium drink.

It was my first time to go there because I heard about they have a Buy One Get One Free promotion today. I paid for one of the 3guys, then I got two. Yeah!!! In addition, they are so nice.

coco’s is the best! i always come here after i get dinner at Udon West (even though my stomach is about to pop open). I get the milk tea with pudding, or green milk tea with grass jelly and bubbles. ask for less ice and 70% sugar.
there’s seating in the back. they take credit cards, 5 $ limit. yeap thats pretty much it

I like the honey melon thing! Also 3 guys is great, pudding, grass jelly. Normal price of like 3.50 $ for medium.
Great spacing spacious just to chill out with friends.
There is charger outlet too!
Fire up to like group of 6 – 8.
Many different flavors, I like cocos same as Kung fu!

I love that CoCo is open late. We were in the area and I was craving boba, and none of the boba shops were open (I’m looking at you, KungFu and TKettle). But CoCo saved that day (or night), at 1AM. The regular milk tea is perfect. I usually get 70% sweet at KungFu, and I forgot to customize the sweetness level at CoCo, but I didn’t find it overtly sweet. So maybe CoCo’s milk tea is not as sweet as KungFu’s? The tapioca bubbles are perfect at CoCo– just enough chewiness with a bit of sweetness.
I will definitely be back at CoCo for more bubble tea! Oh, and I think they have a $ 7 or $ 8 minimum for credit card charges.

Coco is definitely my go to place for bubble tea. And it opens till late too which is a HUGE plus. It’s cheaper than other bubble tea stores and tastes just as authentic (if not more). The milk tea has a roasted scent which I love. If you’re unsure of what to get, you’ll be fine with the coco milk tea or bubble tea.

This is a great bubble tea place and perhaps the best in the area. Their taro is great! Very sweet, just the way I like it. The plain milk tea is also very flavorful and another great option. Unfortunately, they don’t do soy milk here so if you’re lactose intolerant there are a lot of things you can’t have. The taro slushie does not contain milk– as a lactose intolerant fan of taro, I’m dying to try this next! The bubbles are very fresh! There is a lot of seating and the location is very clean.

If you like BoBa, Coco has by far the best tapioca bubbles. Personally, I think its smooth, chewy texture stands out amongst other BoBa alternatives.
It’s also slightly cheaper than other bubble tea places. The only thing bad about Coco is their tea really sweet, so ask for less sugar!

One of my favorite bubble tea spots, and in my opinion the best option on Saint Marks. The pudding milk tea here is to die for and they have really innovative drinks. The 3 guys drink is also delicious if you’re looking to go all out: bubbles, pudding, and herbal jelly. The trifecta.
I recommend adjusting the sugar levels: I’ve found 30% sugar still tastes amazing.
The one thing Kung Fu Tea probably does better is the taro flavor and the slushes. Tea Kettle isn’t even in the equation.
Note that there is a 5 dollar card minimum.
Who isn’t in love with the coco?

With so many bubble tea joints in East Village, you can imagine how cutthroat competition can be. I’ve had my share of bubble tea at Saint Alp’s, Tkettle and Kung Fu tea.
In terms of taste, CoCo is comparable to Kung Fu Tea. I had the passion fruit
passion fruit green tea with sago. The drink was refreshing and not overly sweet, I wasn’t a big fan of the sago though I think I’ll stick to my usual herbal pudding or tapioca.
Like most places CoCo gives you an option for how much ice you want and how much sugar you want. I like that they offer seating unlike Saint Alp’s and Tkettle where it’s only reserved for dine in customers. This forces people to get tea to go rather than sit in.
But not at CoCo, their sleek and modern interior welcomes you and allows you to enjoy your drinks at your own pace rather than walking and drinking at the same time. Prices are slightly cheaper compared to everywhere else, I like that they offer a monthly special where you can get 2 featured medium drinks for $ 4.95.
This might be my new go to spot for bubble tea spot if I’m around East Village.

YAY! One of my favorite go-​to tea chains now has a home in the East Village. That makes a total of 10 CoCo locations in New York. Woot woot!
I nearly tripped on the pavement speed walking past this CoCo, while on the way to the subway. I always assumed there were only a few shops available in California. Well, now I know. (And you too.) Thank heavens!
Your typical CoCo always smells of fresh citrus the moment you walk inside. Staff is always friendly and helpful with the many drink options. I stick to my favorite, which is the Jasmine Milk Tea with coconut jelly. No boba added and always in a large. Mmm, perfection! Tastes exactly the same but the only difference here is the price (more expensive in NYC) and they don’t offer or honor any stamp cards. Bummer.
Forget Starbucks and go to CoCo instead Unilocalers! ;)

If you are on the hunt for sweet milk tea, this is the place to go! I love going here when I’m in the dessert mood, it satisfies my craving! Their regular milk tea, caramel milk tea, and black tea macchiato are some of my favorite options – each is delicious with a very creamy consistency. They also offer regular teas/​juices/​coffee/​etc. They have specials on the monitor so be on the lookout!
You can customize the sweetness and amount of ice. You also can add extras such as pudding, sago, grass jelly, tapioca, etc.
Quick service and there is plenty of seating! Very modern and clean interior.
(If you want stronger and/​or more traditional milk tea I would look elsewhere, the tea flavor can somewhat get lost in the milk and sugar.)

I was about to to go kungfu tea across the street because I heard a lot about it, but they didn’t have pudding so I ran back to coco. I’ve been to coco a lot in Beijing, but this was the first time I saw it in the US. I got the regular milk tea with pudding. They don’t show that you can change the sugar level, but they do. You just have to let the cashier know. Whenever I try a new place, I always get the milk tea to gauge how good they are. So the milk tea here is pretty solid and I enjoyed the pudding. They gave me a lot of pudding so I was a happy camper! I was too full to ask for bubbles, so I can’t comment on how those are. On the sugar aspect, I got 70% sweetness but I may go for 50−60% next time, as I like my milk tea a little less sweet. A lot of places just pack in the sugar to satisfy the American customers, so be careful if you’re like me!
Other than milk tea, they have a bunch of other flavors to try. They also have a lot of topping options other than just the bubbles, pudding, and jelly.

They’ve got a repertoire of bubble tea drinks just like the other Coco locations in NY in this multi national chain. As always, the staff are competent and helpful in picking out a drink that matches my mood.
I’d picked out a large passionfruit green tea with not only bubbles (tapioca), but also rainbow jelly (50¢ extra for each). I didn’t care… I wanted a PARTY in my mouth! It certainly hit the spot after a hefty meal on West Village.
Although I didn’t get a chance to enjoy it in-​store, I did notice they’ve got enough seating further in the back with contemporary lighting befitting the St Marks vibe compared to the other bright stark colors of their other stores.
In the St. Mark’s area, I’d put them on par with St. Alps in terms of overall experience, above the rest of the competition.

Whoooohoooo… love the fact there is four locations for coco in New York City!
This one might be the smallest coco out of all the locations but for me I’m glad there’s still a coco…
The multiple options of toppings are great… the toppings i usually get are… tapioca… pudding… glass jelly… red bean=]
I believe this place is starting to become popular here recently due to the amount of people coming here… theres four bubble tea places around this area and instead of going to the other places which has lesser people they choose coco… It’s been around for a looong while as I remember… I wonder what makes it quite trendy here lately?
But I suggest you try… They are good… My favorite one is the mango slush and three guys and possibly other tea flavored types… I’ve got to still try the others! ^_​_​_​^
