The Alley 鹿角巷

Tips from the community

The Alley might just win *most aesthetic* out of all the boba shops in NY. A Taiwanese chain that features carefully crafted and unique boba concoctions in iconic dome-shaped cups, The Alley is my personal favorite. Enjoy unique seasonal twists like crunchy strawberry boba, or their most famous brown sugar boba, or pretty much anything you can imagine, at this highly Instagrammable location.

  • Must Try Bubble Tea Spots in NYC

    This trendy and *normally served* icy beverage is my constant summer craving. Nothing quite says summer to me like sipping on a fruity tea full of sticky tapioca pearls while strolling around the city. NYC has no shortage of amazing boba spots imported from around the world to satisfy whatever you are craving- whether it's unique seasonal concoctions or just a good ol' milk tea with 50% ice and 50% sugar (well that's my go-to at least). Whether you are a picky boba aficionado or tapioca pears just aren't quite your thing, be sure to give these shops a chance because a lot of the items are highly customizable. Yes, that means you can get a milk tea sans boba at any of these spots.
