Straws for bubble tea are typically wide to accommodate the toppings, and are provided automatically unless you ask for a regular one.

Philadelphia is in Pennsylvania, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Philadelphia follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

Great place to grab boba. Nice and clean space to hang at. They have games such as uno and jenga. Tasty bubble waffles and tons of boba to choose from.

Good boba with lots of optionsβtea tastes fresh and the pearls are usually chewy and sweet. Itβs a bit on the pricier side, but the drinks are reliable and worth it.

Fantastic bubble tea spot! Their creme Brulee brown sugar bubble tea is really good, and I definitely recommend it. The atmosphere is really pleasant, the folks are really polite, and their recommendations are solid. This is definitely the best Gong cha in city, highly recommended!

Great bubble tea! I've been to a bunch of Gong Cha locations (mostly in other cities) and the quality is always good and very consistent. This is probably one of the nicest Gong Cha locations I've been to. It's very spacious, clean, and the service is great too! It may be the location but the prices were also just a tiny bit cheaper than I was used to. Not cheap, mind you, but fair for bubble tea. Recommended if you're in the area and have a craving for bubble tea, you won't go wrong here.

I love bubble tea but Gong Cha is my favorite because you can actually taste the tea flavor that they brew throughout the day to keep it fresh (quality control is excellent.) Pair that with their delicious chewy pearls and you got a match made in heaven! My go to drinks are either the Earl Grey Milk Tea with 3Jβs if Iβm in a creamy mood or the Lemon Ai-yu White Pearl if Iβm in a refreshing mood. The customer service is elite and the baristas are happy to make recommendations for you if you need help deciding. Make this one of your stops if youβre in the area, then explore what the rest of Old City has to offer!
