In case you're wondering what happened to Molly Tea:…read more Here's the Real Tea (per Google): The "Molly Tea scandal" is an international franchise dispute involving the Shenzhen-based parent company of the trendy Chinese tea chain and its US franchise operators. A court injunction barred the US operators from using the brand's trademarks, forcing a viral rebrand to "? Tea" in New York. Headquarters' Allegations: According to court documents, the corporate office revoked the operators' trademark rights after claiming: - Unauthorized Expansions: The US operator opened a Los Angeles location without prior corporate approval. - Unapproved Ingredients: The franchise was sourcing ingredients independently, violating strict corporate quality and recipe standards. - Hiding Profits: Headquarters accused the operators of voiding their contract by allegedly hiding store revenues and bypassing royalty payments. The Franchisee's Perspective: The US operators disputed the claims. Before the courts stepped in, franchisees alleged that corporate HQ had attempted to aggressively renegotiate the ownership equity, attempting to slash the operator's share from 80% to 30% after the US locations proved highly lucrative. Current Status & Rebranding: Due to the legal injunction, the affected stores were forced to scrub the name "Molly Tea" from their storefronts, uniforms, and delivery apps. The operator complied by covering up the logos and using hand-drawn question marks on cups, quickly earning the nickname "? Tea" among fans.

We liked Tea Pulse so much we decided to go back but we went to the Bayside location this time. We…read moreordered the same drink but it was better at Fresh Meadows don't know if it was because it was late in the day & we went to Fresh Meadows early in the day. So I'll just say it's because of that. I got the mango milk which I probably won't get again, it was okay. The egg tart was okay but I've had better. The service was good and the this one was more packed than the Fresh Meadows location.

This is a smaller location than Fresh Meadows though comparable to the location on Doyer Street…read more This location only has 1 self-serve kiosks, the other two location has 2 self-serve kiosks, which makes ordering faster especially when the person in front needs time to decide what he/she wants. This location shares the space with the hot pot next door. It's separated by a sliding door that is partially closed. The employees brings supplies via the sliding door. Why do I bring this up? At least during the time I went, it was quiet though everything the door opened it became noisy. When you are waiting for a while for your order, it's very noticeable. Have some patience or order online and pick up, my mango drinks took a little while since there were 4 customers ahead of me plus online orders. Golden mango milk was ok. If you are in the neighborhood, go check them out.

HeyTea in Long Island City brings the brand's signature drink lineup to the area, and for fans of…read morethe menu it is a welcome addition. We walked into a cozy space with a comfortable feel that makes it easy to settle in for a bit, and the atmosphere strikes a nice balance between modern and relaxed. The drinks themselves are the main draw and largely deliver. We ordered the Coconut Mango Boom, the standout on the menu, and it came loaded with a generous chunk of actual mango that made the whole thing feel more substantial than your average fruit tea. The Triple Matcha is another strong option for anyone looking for a matcha drink. Toppings were consistently chewy and the flavor balance across most of the lineup leans on the lighter, less sweet side, which works well for us. Where things get complicated is the wait. This location runs long on order times fairly regularly, and during busier stretches or when delivery orders are stacking up, a single drink can take thirty to forty minutes. The staff are generally efficient and straightforward, which suits the format, but the kitchen and barista workflow seems to struggle with volume in a way that other HeyTea locations do not. If you are already a HeyTea regular, the Long Island City location is a convenient option for the area, and the menu quality holds up to what the brand does elsewhere. Just plan accordingly on timing and you will leave happy. We would come back for the Coconut Mango Boom, but we would order ahead and build in a buffer before we need to be anywhere else.

I had just finished dinner at a nearby restaurant and still had some room for a small drink, so I…read morestopped by this place. It's quite small, and many customers order their drinks to go. Ordering is digital. You place your order and pay at a self serve kiosk. The serving team behind the counter was working diligently to prepare all the drinks. I ordered the Coconut Mango Boom with sago. It was creamy, refreshing, and packed with sweet mango flavor. The tiny sago pearls add a nice chewy texture to the drink. The menu also offers a wide variety of drinks, including matcha, fruit teas such as grapefruit, guava, and even kale, as well as traditional Chinese teas like jasmine and longjing (aka dragon well). I would like to come back by and try some of those if I'm in the area.

The ambiance seemed pretty empty but it was clean.

I am saving my jasmine tea for tomorrow am bc I have an early all day event to get to. So I have something ready. It wasn't busy when I went today since it was mid afternoon time. Since I was only one in store I was able to take some more pics and relax while waiting for my order.

Decent spot for bubble tea drinks…read more Iced strawberry matcha oat milk tea 8/10 It has good flavor and sweetness with 2 strawberry sauce pumps, light ice. No fresh cuts of strawberry but still good. Matcha slush bobo 7/10 The brown sugar flavor and boba were very good. The matcha flavor was ok. Good drink overall and I liked the texture. Iced Cafe latte 6/10 It says two shots of espresso but it's so light and watery at medium size with less ice. I would rather no ice and less milk just to get more coffee flavor. The coffee flavor is too watered down.

I've now lost count of how many times I've visited Nom Tea! Most of the time, the food and service is good, but occasionally the food comes out too salty. It's not super consistent on the food side, but the drinks have always been wonderful. The only drink I wasn't a fan of was the ube cake cream latte since I think they used powder (it felt powdery and didn't taste like real ube).

I also like how close and convenience it is to get to the LIRR Kew Gardens stop.

I tried the 3Q milk tea that contained boba, coconut jelly and pudding. Boba was well done and the texture was just about right, although not the softest boba that I've ever had. Pudding was soft and not as sweet as others I tried. Coconut jelly was sweet and had a good level of coconut flavor. I liked the combination of the three and it tasted good in one bite. Amount of toppings was generous and I even had some leftover after finishing the liquid. If I'm in the area again I'll pick up another one.
