Hawa Smoothies & Bubble Tea

So glad I discovered this place!
They have so many options and variations on the menu for a heavy or light juice, sweet or vegetable-​y. I also like that the juices and smoothies are all 100% fruit or veggies with milk or yogurt as options!
It’s a pretty small place with a couple of chairs at a bar area-​no frills but service is friendly :).
One downside is that it’s cash only but everything I’ve ordered has been fairly priced, tasty and hit the spot!

Pretty good. Definitely a space to take things and go. They do have a small seating area but its mainly if you’re waiting on your drink. I was so tired from walking around at DanceAfrica so I sucked it up and sat there and drank my mango bubble milk tea. The tea was good, just slightly a bit too sweet for me. And I wasn’t sure if actual fruits or powders were used. They seem to have fruits around so I’m assuming it was. I don’t know… I wasn’t sold on this one.

I ordered a Passion Green (#33) and it was delicious. The staff is friendly and fulfill the order quickly.

This is for lychee bubble milk tea, hot. I asked for it to be half sweet. It took forever for them to make (over 5 minute wait after ordering), and when it came it was super incredibly sweet. Like barely drinkable. I opened up the top and tried some bubbles, and they were basically mush. Very subpar — I think she forgot the half sweet, even though she said they could do it.
Outside of my bubble tea itself, it seemed like a bright, pleasant place with a lot of juice and smoothie options, lots of protein powders (and even Benefiber?) displayed that I’m guessing they add to smoothies. The people who got cold bubble tea and drinks received their drinks promptly and seemed happy. There was lots of business on a Tuesday afternoon at 3 pm.
Moral of the story: it seems I didn’t order their best item. Don’t go for the hot bubble tea, and if you want it half-​sweet, make sure you reinforce that a few times.

Feeling a little under the weather, so why not go with Fruits and Veggies to boost my immune system! Came here in the morning and ordered a «Coconut Acai Bowl». OMG was this thing so tasty with granola, strawberries, bananas, mangos, toasted coconut flakes and chia seeds on top! $ 9 for a Regular and $ 13 for a Large. This will be my TO-​GO spot for these. And they are really friendly here. Check out the pictures of the freshness!!!

The Bubble Tea are really good. I just had the powder taste but I get used to very sip.

$ 5 for a medium juice with beets, kale, pineapple, and ginger for congested sinuses. It tasted pretty good despite the fact that I don’t really enjoy drinking ginger. Hawa also offer sambazon acai bowls and juice cleanses using real fruits. This place is good and juices are straught to the point.

Cheap good bubble tea. Came in here after I read «Bubble Tea» on the window. On the walls of the establishment they tell you the flavors of the teas and juices. I came in here for a honeydew bubble tea. The small came up to $ 3.5. It has a very obvious powder taste, but that’s expected*. I adjusted to the taste of powdered bubble tea, but if you hate powdery bubble tea, than you may not like this. Anyway, I liked it considering I was craving some decent boba at that moment.
*In Brooklyn, I noticed that alot of the milk teas, specifically Honeydew, Thai Iced tea, and Taro have a very powder-​tea taste. The powder taste ranges from a hint to a obvious taste of powder.

What a great addition to the neighborhood! So I have visited this place many times and they have great smoothies, juice, bubble tea, acai bowls, you name it. The workers are also really nice and are good at helping you pick something if you are an indecisive like me.
I can’t find it in me to give the place 5 stars because of what I dread most.. «cash only» :(

I’ve been on the search of a decent acai bowl in the neighborhood, and after being majorly disappointed by the one at Juice Press in Brooklyn Heights I decided to give this one a try.
Perfection.
Beautifully blended with ice and perfect for a hot summer day. They are also super friendly in there which is always nice.
Great job Hawa!
PS: I’m taking off one star because I hate the busy location and they only accept cash.

Great selection! Great service! Thank you for coming to Brooklyn.

Today was my second time visiting this place for the week. Both times I had the acai bowl. It comes with tons of fruit, granola and sprinkled chia seeds on top. It was delish! Very refreshing especially needed on a hot summer day. They don’t accept credit cards so don’t forget your cash. They have a debit machine outside but when I was here the machine was not working.

Finally!!! A place by work that offers fresh smoothies, bubble teas, and ACAI BOWLS!!! I thought I’d be resigned to either salads or unhealthy options… but no longer! I’ve been wanting to try an Acai bowl but wasn’t able to as no place near my work place offered it. And voila, Hawa came! So I went out on this hot summer day to get myself an Acai bowl for lunch. It is more than I expected! It is fresh, filling, and delicious!

I’ve been waiting for a good smoothie place to join us in Downtown Brooklyn. The wait is over! Place was great. $ 4 fruit smoothie — I got the strawberry blueberry banana and it was tasty. This spot is the definition of a hidden gem, I walked by it twice without realizing it was a smoothie bar.
Of note, cash only!
