Bubble tea was great- good options and also love that there is highlights of the best sellers on the menu! And the riceballs are fire!! They make it on the spot and since I was torn between couple of options- the lady at the cashier recommended the fried pork one and it so so yummy and fresh and her recommendation is why am writing this review!! So good 😀

Been a day-1 customer. It’s a brightly colored small boba shop with food options like takoyaki and different flavored rice balls. I prefer milk teas so that’s usually my go-to but the other fruit drinks are pretty good too. It’ll come down to personal preference. Love the creativity for their drinks and names. Staff has always been friendly, helpful & fast. The only other one I’ve been to is in NY but it’s nice to have one of great quality close to home!

On the Fourth of July, I was craving bubble tea. Luckily Yaya Tea was open. First time here at this location. Parking was easy. There is meter parking on Central Ave. Once inside, I ordered a large taro milk tea. The boba would have been extra charge. My drink was made quickly since it was empty inside. I got the narrow straw since I didn't have any toppings added to my drink. Unfortunately the straw could not puncture the top of the drink. It ended up breaking. The taro itself was good. Nothing spectacular about it but good enough. The price was reasonable. 5.95 ($6.34 after tax). Typical price you would pay at other bubble tea places in north Jersey. The staff were not memorable. One took my order and one made it.
