Babo Teahouse

It's a really cool place!

The coffee Gelato is delicious..

Extremely cute place. Cozy nice and great prices. Only had the bubo tea and it was amazing.... would definitely be going back. Great first experience.

Try the thai tofu wrap, it was delicious!

Great bubble tea been coming here for years

Great food, great service, and I personally loved the chalk mural and the wall of prize machines. They also have delicious ice cream. 🍦😋

Awesome bubble tea and the only place i know that has red velvet gelato!

Nice little bubble tea place. Good boba. Delicious Asian food (including some Indian food) and ice cream. Right by the beautiful Newport waterfront.

Rude employees, but good tea

Love their teas, shumai and service.. Super sweet staff..very friendly. ..

fast courteous service.

This place is good but very poor service. The cashier lack of responsibility, they dont wear any gloves before serving any food they use same hands everywhere. Total gross Very poor service doesn't recommend at all.

The staff is extremely rude and unprofessional. They messed up my order, served terrible tea and asked me to “understand their predicament” when I asked them to please correct the order. Never visiting this place again. 0 stars.

Best place for bubble tea.

Nice place for bubble tea, tasty eats & gelato, I love the spiced chai iced milk tea. Friendly and kind staff, efficient and super fast service. There's currently scaffolding outside the building which makes it look like it's not open but it is.

This place has amazing dumplings! I can seriously house two orders by myself. plus, its super trendy inside!!!

I love their ice cream and the food is good. The food does take a while usually spend 20 to 30 mins waiting on food but the scenary is nice. Good music too.

Good place for bubble teas and quick bites in Newport. Just tried the bubble teas: Thai iced tea and Taro, the taro was really good. Fun and quirky ambience. Definitely worth a visit.

I love this place. It is so underrated! The dumplings, wings and gelato are really good. When you get the bubble tea ask for less sugar.

Got a regular milk tea with pudding during tail end lunch break. The pudding tasted stale.. metallic taste. Place has changed...

Cute little cafe food and gelato place. Came here for lunch on a Sunday once and the ramen was surprisingly good and the wings were as well.

Today, I ordered a Large Slush Thai Iced Tea with Tapioca. I really like it! It's smooth and silky like an almost melted ice cream. I forgot to mention to adjust the sweetness. If they can adjust the sweetness I would recommend maybe adjust it to 75%. I had tapioca a couple of years ago I didn't really like it. The reason why I rarely go here is because I didn't like the tapioca. The quality was not really good. I got tapioca on my drink today and I can tell that the quality is definitely better.I think the drink is a little bit pricey for $6.15.Will I go back? Yes, however not anytime soon. I'm glad I have another option in case I'm craving for some milk tea.

Best bubble tea I've ever had and their ice cream is great too! The coworkers are all really nice and personable. They even know my usual order. I would 100% recommend this place!

Love the bubble tea and cold drinks with Tapioca.

This is one of the better bubble tea places in the area. A lot of places don't do the bubbles right, but Babo is pretty good (even though they don't soak them in a honey solution as they're supposed to be soaked, but that's ok if you don't want the extra sweetness). Taro slush and Thai iced tea slush are my favorites.

Good bubble tea.... friendly people

Omg so delicious. I am so happy that I tried it. I'll definitely be returning here soon.

Decent, a bit loud, good alternative to Starbucks across street. Cash only under $5 which is kinda annoying but that's the norm with boba places.Ordered something with green tea and coconut in it. They actually put decent amount of green tea powder and not a lot of sugar by default, I only asked for less ice, which is great. At least, for that drink I liked it the way it was made, slightly bitter with the undernote of coconut and the fat in coconut offsetting the harsh taste of pure green tea.

I go here every time I visit my friends in Jersey. The ice cream here is really good, can't wait to visit again.

Drinks and food are okay, a little over priced for what you get. Art on the wall is amazing. Its A LOT slower than what it used to be years ago.

Delicious bubble tea and great selection of Japanese dishes!! The price is even better! Love their nitro coffee! Although the back portion of this place could use an upgrade, interior is clean and has good atmosphere. Been coming here twice a week, and my experience is always great.

The food and drinks here are always excellent! Loved the roast pork and rice dish and honeydew bubble tea with milk!

Past few times here, the drinks were a bit too sweet and our orders were off (asked for aloe, got the default tapioca pearls). The food orders also weren't too amazing. Capsule machines are pretty dope, but, some of the more desirable ones may be broken from overuse.

Generous servings of gelato, chicken and waffles is okay (not amazing), Bubble tea is pretty good.

Love the dumplings/momos!

I really really really wanted to like this place. You would think a place touting itself as a teahouse would have great tea. However, this was not the case. The bubble tea was watery, lacked flavor, and very little boba balls compared to other places. Drank two strawfuls and chucked the rest out. This place sells food too which I have not tried.On a positive note, this place is located in a very nice area of Newport JC.

This place is awesome. We always go here when we visit our friends in the apartment building above. The bubble tea can be made without dairy which is good for me! I can't have dairy so it's nice to have bubble tea when I normally can't! The ramen is soooo good, And my husband loves the Thai chicken?? They also gave gelato that is dairy free every so often. I also get steamed buns from here but I don't know if they're fresh or frozen. Either way they're prepared the correct way and are very tasty.

Terrible Ice cream

Drove 30 min to find out they close 30 minutes before they are suppose to. That shows how lazy the works just are. The owner should consider hiring new employees.

Great place. Customer service is awesome. Food is great..Best part is free WiFi:)

Loved this cute little place. We tried the passion fruit bubble tea and sunset. Both were amazing. We also got the dumplings: loved chicken teriyaki dumplings, I didn't like the chicken and basil ones too much. But definitely it's a must try for the chicken teriyaki dumplings

My bubble tea was gross and watery. The cashier made zero effort to fix it despite the fact that I was complaining loudly for ten minutes straight. So not only is the bubble tea bad but the customer service is too. Sad.

Okay ramen. Good bubble tea. Crowded with weeaboo.

Love this place! great bubble tea, great food!

Great prices! There is some food and gelato/ice cream too! The decor is super cute with a wall full of toy dispensers. Staff is excellent every time. There’s free WiFi too! Always try to stop by when I’m in jersey city.

One of my favourite restaurants ever! Check out their special rolls like Lobster Tempura and Imperial Roll. The food is fresh and delicious while the service is friendly and top-notch. I loved this place.

Agree with the last review. What an absolute disgrace to close 30 minutes early. We tried to get there earlier, but there was road construction and our gps does not work. Still managed to get there sometime before they closed and yet and still they were closed early with locked doors and cleaning up? This is what happens when you have high school kids running your business. A business should close when it's STATED to close. What a joke.

I love taro here, but I am a sweet tooth

This is our go to place near the Hudson River walkway. It’s not very crowded. We love the variety of bobbas, ice cream and the food is really great !

The food was great.
