Welcome to Friend's Corner in Highland, NY
Friend's Corner Tea & Snack Bar is a small, colorful drink and snack stop on Main Street in Highland, New York, close to the intersection of Main Street and Vineyard Avenue. People come in for bubble tea, fruit smoothies, lemonade and coffee, and they come back for the Filipino favorites: a tall glass of sago gulaman, a layered halo-halo and Filipino comfort food.
Whether you are picking up a drink on the way home, meeting a friend for an afternoon treat or trying boba for the very first time, our goal is simple: a friendly welcome, a drink made the way you like it and a quick, easy pickup when you order ahead.

Hot Drinks and Coffee
When the Hudson Valley gets cold, try a hot milk tea such as Cinnamon, Vanilla Rose, Taro or Red Bean Coconut Milk, or go classic with espresso, a latte, a cappuccino, drip coffee, hot chocolate or a cup of green, Assam or oolong tea.
Filipino Specialties
Halo-halo, the famous Filipino shaved-ice dessert, comes in medium and large. Sago gulaman, a cold brown-sugar drink with tapioca pearls and jelly, is one of our best sellers. Ask what Filipino comfort food is available when you stop by.
