"I usually love chestnut, but I couldn't really get into the chestnut bobo. The ube potato one was a total surprise though—I loved it"

"Amazing! I came here in a 30 minutes before close. As I was walking I cane across two others who had boba from Débutea. I asked them if it was still tasty and fresh and they confirmed it was! 😁. I originally went for brown sugar boba but the strawberry was just SO convincing. I had to get it. It’s amazing. Fresh chewy boba, lactose free milk, and cheese foam. The staff was hospitable and very professional. I definitely will be coming back."

"I'll be honest and say that Débutea just happened to be on the way from lower Manhattan all the way up to Bryant Park during our extreme walking marathon, and it couldn't have been a better stopover on a hot, humid New York day. The spot was super cute and their drinks were even cuter. Everything came in a plastic mason jar that you could save or recycle, so I expected high quality tea drinks. As a lover of milk teas, I went with their Brown Sugar Milk Tea with Oat Milk and Boba. I love that they offered non-dairy milk options here instead of just using a non-dairy creamer. My drink came out beautifully and after mixing it together, I could taste the high quality tea and the boba itself. Yum! Everyone seems to be raving about their quality fruit teas so that will have to be a go-to for next time."

"I like the design and the smell. Like the exposure of fruits on the table. Drinks are maybe a bit too pricey, additionally, there’s almost no sitting except a small bench that’s inside the cafe for two people."

"I stopped by Débutea on 04/27 and casually picked one of the drinks from the signboard — the Rose Blueberry with caramel boba, which came to 💰$10.34 after tax. The shop was buzzing with customers coming and going. The wait time was shorter than HeyTea, which I appreciated. While waiting, I noticed two unique jellyfish-shaped lights near the entrance. It made me think that Débutea isn’t just inspired by nature in their drinks, but carries that same inspiration into their interior design too. As for the drink, I was genuinely impressed. The rose aroma was rich and elegant, giving the drink a floral lift without being overpowering. The blueberry slush was smooth and consistent throughout, adding a cool and refreshing base, while the caramel brought a subtle thickness and a touch of sweetness. The boba pleasantly chewy which had great texture. What I really appreciated was how well each element balanced the others. The floral and fruity notes blended seamlessly, creating a layered flavor experience without any of the components clashing or overwhelming one another. If I had one suggestion, it would be to print the sentence that I saw on their in-store display onto the cup itself. It was about "An ode to spring, where floral elegance meets the vibrant energy of renewal." That sentence captured the drink perfectly. You can think of it as a seasonal story told through flavor, where floral grace and fruity brightness come together in one cup."
