    I would recommend parking in the neighborhood or crossing the street from Main St. Cupertino. I came on Memorial Day and it was about a 15 min wait after ordering off the kiosk, not bad at all. I've had the Snowy Jasmine before at different locations and I think I would stick to that or try one of their matchas next time. There is lots of seating but it's not the most comfortable if you're looking to sit and talk for a while. Overall though, service is efficient and clean!

    Mehh.. Not my cup of tea. Perhaps I ordered the wrong thing? I got the matcha jasmine salted cheese and it wasn't great. Overhyped imo. But then again I'm not an avid tea drinker. The matcha was subtle. More milky. Tea flavor was ok. I wouldn't say it's my fave. At least I got to try. Packaging was nice tho. A cover for the foam part if you take it to-go. I like TP Tea more if I had to drink milk tea. Service was crazy busy. Luckily I ordered ahead to save some time. Ambiance was lively, interior is super bright. So packed and limited parking nearby.

    The jasmine whipped cream with pecan is by far the best item on their menu. I could have it by itself. Molly Tea has very strong floral notes and is definitely on the less sweet side, which I like. They recommend ordering above 70% sweetness if you want it more sweet. We've ordered it for delivery a few times and the packaging itself seems over-the-top secure. The lot at this location is small and I'd recommend find parking on the street.

    First time trying Molly Tea. Seen the wait at the Sunnyvale location before...the Cupertino one seemed a bit shorter, but still pretty long. Two of us ordered: snowy jasmine with boba $8.98 premium jasmine iced tea with boba $5.58 Only two self-order kiosks which makes it a bit inefficient in ordering and lines clog the shop inside. Limited parking in the lot. Had to park on the street a few blocks down. two kiosks Not worth the wait...smells nice inside, but drinks were far from good...boba was not cooked well.

    I kind of liked this location. They were less busy than the Sunnyvale location. Molly Tea up in the Bay Area seems to choose their location by whichever strip shopping center has the smallest parking lot. They are like all modern places. You want service? Go do it yourself at the kiosk. Only service here is handing out drinks after ordering. We decided to be a little different...No "Oriental Jasmine" cups for us. I got a jasmine mango smoothie, while my wife got one of their matcha drinks. The drinks were good. It's a good place. Will visit again when in the area.

    I don't get the hype T^T this is third go at Molly tea, got all the different types of milk tea plus the jasmine whipped cream. The floral taste is nice, but tea is the wrong word to describe it. They're more like flower water, everything a bit watered down. We tried the oolong milk tea mixes and it definitely is better but to be honest, heytea is even better. Also, both this location and the one in Sunnyvale have tiny parking lots so always need to find parking elsewhere.

    My first time trying Molly Tea and I'm disappointed. I knew that the wait would be a while since it was a Saturday, so I downloaded the mobile app and ordered ahead of time. The estimated time they gave us was wildly inaccurate. Once we got there and went inside, it was an additional half an hour wait. It is absolutely chaotic in there - completely packed with people ordering at the kiosk (which also had a long line), and just a ton of people waiting for their drinks. My husband and I got the Jasmine milk tea (add brown sugar boba +.99 - total 7.98) and I got a peach tieguanyin oolong milk tea (6.59). Both with regular sugar 100% and less ice. Both drinks were extremely watery. The floral notes of the tea does come through and it tastes like higher quality than average. However, it was way too watered down. The brown sugar boba was also extremely mediocre and was mushy, not QQ at all. 100% sweetness was about right, but since it was so watered down it didn't matter anyways. Peach flavor (essence) was quite strong in my drink as well, but also, again just watered down as a whole. I will say the pink packaging is cute for photos. Definitely not coming back anytime soon, though.

    A Molly Tea was right next to our dinner spot so I finally had to try it after seeing it pop up everywhere. The line was pretty long but it moved quickly and our drinks were done in no time. Overall good drinks here. A little smaller drinks than other places for the same price. The extra lid on top of the sealed plastic seemed unnecessary. One or the other seems sufficient. I dont think I'd wait in the crazy lines for it, but I'd get it again if it was convenient.

    I got the snowy jasmine tea with brown sugar boba and it was great. I personally like my drinks on the sweeter side so I got 100% sweetness and less ice. 100% sweetness was still not very sweet (comparable to 70%) but it's still very good. The boba was fresh and had a good texture but lacked flavor. The pecans on top of the whipped cream were such a nice touch and added a nice texture and sweetness to the drink. There's plenty of seating inside and two kiosks to order from. The wait time on a sunday evening was around 15 minutes.

    Floral profiles both in the smell of the store and the taste of the drink! I enjoyed grabbing drinks here with a friend as we caught up. There isn't much seating inside so you may have to wait for a table at peak hours, but most people take it to-go. 5/5 - Premium Jasmine Milk Tea - I was surprised by how the drink brings out a soothing green tea flavor profile without being too bitter or sweet. The drink is well balanced between the fresh milk and green tea that is well-proportioned with the ice. You can adjust your sweetness and ice levels to be perfect for what you'd like from your drink!

    We visited on a Sunday and this place was definitely busy! The good thing was you can place the order on kiosk, which made the process smoother. I ordered their jasmine tea, which was so fragrant and refreshing! Would love to try the other drinks next time!

    We went to Molly Tea a few minutes before closing. The parking situation is really bad. They have a back parking lot, but there's a lot of kids that don't really seem like they can drive well. I would say it's better to go when the surrounding restaurants are closed so you can park across the street. The tea selection in the kiosks does not match the actually menu. I ended up getting the Dancong Oolong Milk Tea. While it was tasty I was hoping for a brewed tea with sweet foam. Similar to what I was thinking their Peach Oolong Milk Tea could be. The inside was ok, again lots of random kids just hanging out, there's barely any room to stand.

    Premium Jasmine Milk Tea

    Packed place, endless wait but it was worth it. I ordered the Premium Jasmine Milk Tea and loved it. It is less sugary. I ordered it with 50% sugar. It tasted like 25% milk tea from other places. But it was really good. You cannot go wrong with this one. I went here at 3 pm on a Sunday. It was very crowded. Most of the people were just waiting for their orders. I feel they were not able to manage so many orders. I saw a lot of teas ready to go but no one picked them. Orders were not correctly displayed on the screen I think. The place was so full. It tells you how popular it is. The ambiance was defined by people eagerly waiting for their orders. It was a bit difficult to find parking near to the store. Most of the parking spots were occupied so I had to look for street parking. I will definitely visit this place again. 100% worth it.

Don't yall work on Fridays?! (I had the day off :D). I get in the store and there were a bunch of orders sitting on the counter, people probably just order and pick up later. There was enough parking somehow. It wasn't too crowded inside, but it was warm like others have said. I got the avocado dragon fruit smoothie and a strawberry daifuku for the wifey. My drink wasn't bad. Going into this I was like... haven't ya'll had Avocado smoothie from any Vietnamese shop before? Like how good could this be. The drink was creamy and sweet enough, so it was good. Not exactly the same as a vietnamese avocado smoothie. I already had something similar to the Avocado signature smoothie from Naisnow and it wasn't for me, which is why I didn't order it here. The Strawberry Daifuku was alright. A little tangy, mochi was nice, but the drink wasn't cold at all. My wife works basically next door, so she can order ahead of time and pick it up on the way home. But definitely not planning to order, drive 25 minutes each way, just to have this.

Here's what we got: **Sunny Side Up Matcha Einspanner $7.75: A vibrant matcha base topped with a dollop of silky whipped cream, finished with a sunny side up 'egg' where the yolk is a sweet mango syrup. This drink had me saying "Oh wow!" after taking the first sip. After the second sip, it was "Was that a really ripe mini chunk of fresh mango?" This was so well executed that it felt effortless. It wasn't overly sweet-- the Matcha and the Mango flavors blended together beautifully yet you could make out the flavors of both. I usually scoff at how expensive drinks are these days but I could justify the price on this. **Black Sesame Coffee Einspanner $7.50: Signature espresso drink with our house-made Black sesame cream with your choice of milk. Another hit. I love Black Sesame and when I can find it, I order. This was also on par with the Sunny Side up because of how distinctly flavorful it was. You can taste the nuttiness of the black sesame seeds. Add in the espresso and it makes for a coffee that you could gulp down. Both of these drinks are dangerous because if it was up to me, I could have probably drank these both in under 5 minutes. Sigh.

It sounds like a lot, but it actually works really well together. The White Champaca tea is on the mellow side, the Jasmine whipped cream adds additional floral aroma and extra creaminess, the sago gives texture without overpowering the drink, and the little bits of pecan add a nice surprise crunch. My husband's favorite is the Peach Oolong. I've had my fair share of peach milk teas over the years where they can be too sweet and the peach flavor tastes straight up like chemicals, but this has to be the best peach-flavored tea I've had so far! It has a fruity taste that doesn't overpower the flavor of the tea leaves. When I first visited last year, they had a "Fresh Oat Milk Tea Series", but I'm sad to say that it's not on this location's menu anymore. _______________________________________________________ ---A M B I A N C E -- I'm diggin' the woodsy, warm, Asian-y aesthetic they got going on! Tea and merch are displayed on the walls, and pink is definitely their signature color, so expect to see pops of it here and there in the decor, cups, and to-go bags. This location has a decent amount of chairs and tables, but let me tell you, this place was hella busy back when it was the only Bay Area location. We learned the hard way that the parking lot gets packed. Sometimes you'll get stuck in the super small lot because someone isn't even in a spot -- they just have their car parked with the hazards on while they run in to pick up their drink. Other times, cars are waiting and signaling for a parking spot while other cars are on standby waiting for people to leave after grabbing their drinks. The gas station behind the shop clearly got tired of it too because they put up a bunch of signs saying they'll tow if you park there just to visit Molly Tea. I highly recommend parking down the street near the apartment sidewalks or across the street and taking a little stroll to the store instead. Honestly, it just showed me that no matter how tiny the lot was, people still made the effort to slide through for drank. Fair warning though -- definitely expect to wait and chill. _______________________________________________________ --- S E R V I C E --- I will say, the staff handles the busyness pretty well. Lines are usually at or out the door, and they're receiving online orders simultaneously. There's another boba shop in the Bay that has a similar layout and process as Molly Tea, but that other chain feels like workers on an assembly line with deadpan faces. I feel like the brightness and warmth of Molly Tea is emphasized even more because of the friendly staff and their willingness to help with your order even after it's received.

Ordering is pretty straightforward on their self-service kiosks. On this particular visit, I had their White Champaca Oolong Milk Tea with less ice and 30% sugar. Somehow, they always get it just right in terms of sweetness. The best part is the "three stack straw" which really brings out the taste of the tea. Drinks were being made and served to order minute by minute, and the overall wait time was ~ 15 minutes. While the seating here is comfortable and can be relaxing, make sure to plan ahead, as the sun can be quite the nuisance at the right angles!
