Moge Tee East Village

The drinks were extremely bland and tasted almost purely like water, with very low-quality ingredients. I couldn’t taste any oat milk or tea in them; honestly, I have no idea what was in those drinks since they lacked flavor entirely.

I ordered the regular bubble tea with 70% sugar, and it was the best milk tea I've had in the city so far. The combination of black teas is rich and incredibly flavorful. The balance between creaminess and sweetness is just right! Food: 5/5

I really enjoyed the pineapple fresh fruit slush I ordered; it was excellent! The young woman who assisted me was extremely helpful and did a fantastic job. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I will definitely return to this location. View menu

"The best bubble tea! The Fresh Mango Tea (Slush) is incredibly refreshing and my go-to option, aside from the Taro Bubble Milk, which I love as well. I always add crème brûlée and the white tapioca pearls for extra flavor. I absolutely love Moge Tea!"

The drinks are pretty typical for a boba place and the location is pleasant. However, the cleanliness of the establishment leaves much to be desired and it definitely needs a good cleaning. The soft chairs are a great touch, but they've gone from green to brown—yikes! Food: 4/5.

I had a small issue with my order, but they quickly fixed it and even threw in an extra item! The staff was super friendly, even though I was in a hurry after the concert. The quality of the tea is impressive. If you're in the area, this place is a must-visit! The atmosphere is very relaxing. Food: 5/5. View menu

The fresh fruit slushes were incredibly delicious, the cheese foam surpassed that of many other bubble tea shops, and the tea had the authentic taste of real brewed tea. Additionally, the milk genuinely tasted like milk and not like powdered alternatives. While it may be less creamy and sweet than other brands, I appreciate that it has a more natural and homemade flavor. The 30% sugar level was also refreshing; it wasn’t overly sweet, unlike many other brands where even 30% still tastes like 100%.

I had a disappointing experience at Brown Sugar Boba. The tapioca pearls were extremely hard and had a strange, almost sour taste that was off-putting. The watermelon slush was gritty, as if the artificial flavor packets hadn't been mixed well. We also encountered long wait times, and the restaurant itself was quite unclean, just as another reviewer had mentioned. It's unfortunate that I spent $20 on two drinks that we had to toss out right away because they made us feel nauseous. I highly recommend checking out the other boba shops nearby instead.

However, the cleanliness of the interior left much to be desired, so we opted to take our drinks to go, although there is seating available inside. I appreciated the array of fresh tea options, particularly as a refreshing choice on warmer days. One downside was that the fruit slices contained seeds, which meant that sometimes you would bite into squishy boba, while other times you would encounter a hard pit or seed. On a positive note, I liked that the cups feature a resealable lid instead of the flimsy plastic sheet that requires a straw to puncture. The large tea cost $6.25, with an additional 70 cents for boba, bringing the total to $7.80 after tax. View menu
