This was my second time back in just one week, and I am officially hooked! I returned specifically to try more of their menu, including their signature drinks, and every single one has been an absolute knockout. Here is what we tried: Pistachio Jasmine Coconut: Incredibly unique, creamy, and refreshing. White Champaca Milk Tea: Beautifully floral and perfectly balanced. Premium Jasmine Apple Milk Tea: Crisp, light, and delicious. Every single drink we've ordered has been excellent and incredibly fragrant. read more

Molly Tea - Premium Jasmine Apple Milk Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

Molly tea came very recommended by multiple people so we went to make the long drive over. I saw videos about there being lines so we wanted to come when they opened. We were able to place an order through their app for pick up at 11:15. We got a Matcha White Champaca Salted Cheese and the Premium Jasmine Apple Milk Tea both with White Boba. They move pretty fast and were able to get our order ready 3 minutes after they opened. You can park in the garage next to the shop, where the Wegmans is for free (I think for at least an hour). We were surprised that there weren't too many people but still a little line inside when we came in but we were out in less than 3 minutes. Inside of the shop is on the smaller side, not too many seats, and they have ordering kiosks. My Matcha White Champaca Salted Cheese was really good. Smooth flavor, not too sweet which is a huge plus. The boba was cooked perfectly as well. The Apple Milk Tea was also great, not artificial tasting at all. Though it's far, I definitely understand the hype and would definitely want to come back soon. read more

Overhyped. So expensive for mid ahh drinks. Tasted like five diff drinks. Matcha was okay (cheese one was def a choice). Gardenia tea lowk tastes like water with a hint of floralness (hey maybe that's what you want your $8 to go to). Tang leung cha (I forget the name) tea tasted like those instant boba mixes. Only one that was acceptable was the jasmine. If you want to spend $8 and get good flavors, heytea is just around the block read more

My girlfriend and I come here so often that we have quality literally almost tried every drink on the menu. The tea flavors are strong and tasty. I recommend you order online and pickup for convenience. My girlfriend loves their matcha drinks. I enjoy their tea drinks! read more

Molly Tea is always busy, but I had to get it while in the area since they shut down all the NY locations. Plus, this was so conveniently located to where I was staying while in Rockville. I got a classic Osmanthus Milk Tea ($6.79) with all the recommendations. It's so floral and refreshing. The straws are super thin, so you can really taste the flavors. Easily my favorite tea spot! read more

Molly Tea - Osmanthus Milk Tea. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Rockville, Maryland

Molly Tea has recently opened in Rockville, close to the Twinbrook metro station. Inside the small shop there are two small tables and a few chairs. The storefront is bright and inviting. There are two touchscreens inside to place a drink order, and about 7-8 staff assembling the drinks. This seems to be quite a popular location, as the screen showing the order numbers was filled with multiple pages of order numbers and the counter was stacked full of drinks waiting for pickup. I ordered the Jasmine Citrus drink, and waited about 10 min before my order number popped up on the screen, and was ready to pickup. Jasmine Citrus was pretty good, a light and floral tea balanced with citrus from the several slices of orange, lemon, and lime. read more

Travelled 1.5 hours and waited 1 hour after ordering via app. If another person didn't suggest us ordering thru the app, we would have waited more. Anyway, got nothing to do that day so I'd say it was worth it (tried other places too). Seasonal mango drink was fave! One of my top milk tea places! Everyone was just waiting for their drink to be done during a 90F kind of day. Garage parking is free for the first 2 hours, but if you need more time, maybe you can move to the mall parking across the street. read more

The vibes and aesthetic of Molly tea is very much is like a cross between luxury brand milk tea x Pop Mart. I got the white champaca oolong milk tea with the recommend light ice and 70% sugar level with no toppings. I like that the flavor of the tea shines through with the floral but not overwhelming to the point it's more scent than flavor. Sweetness wise, it was a good balance of not being too sweet. My friend got the white champaca matcha with the recommended light ice and 70% sugar level, and choose brown sugar boba for the add-on. I felt the champaca flavor was not as apparent in her drink due to it being balanced out by the matcha. read more

I've been meaning to come here ever since I heard they opened but haven't had the chance to until today! When I first walked in I was kind of surprised how small the space was. There isn't much seating inside but there was a side that was closed off and said employees only. Maybe they'll open it up for more seating?? (I hope so) We ordered from the kiosk there were so many great drink options that I was so indecisive in what to get! I ended up getting the white champaca matcha which was decent, however I felt like I tasted a little more milk than matcha. My cousin got the pistachio jasmine coconut with sago, I took a sip from and it was pretty good I kind of preferred it over the matcha. The service was fast and the staff were friendly. The ambiance is super cute and I love how they have this little pink cart outside! read more

Molly Tea is finally in the DMV! ...Except it was still a 30-45 minutes drive for me to get to. But beats taking an Amtrak to NYC! My friend and I arrived a bit before 5 PM and only had to wait a couple minutes before we were able to order at the kiosk. Seems like we beat the early evening rush because a huge group arrived shortly after. The interior is small with only a few small tables and seats, but fortunately, we were able to find a spot to sit while we waited. Our drinks came out about 30 minutes after ordering, which wasn't bad for a Saturday evening! TONGMU LAPSANG MILK TEA - 6.99 My cousin got this the last time I went to Molly Tea, and it truly slapped. I love the woodsy smokiness of this black tea which paired well with the milk. The tea flavor was incredibly strong without being oversteeped. I got it with 50% sugar (despite the 70% recommended), but lowkey would have been happier with 30%. Despite the distance and the nightmare that is driving on 495, I know I'll be back soon for more milk tea! read more

One of the best boba/milk tea shops around. The hype and the long lines are well deserved. Haven't had one that felt this high quality in the ingredients. Their jasmine tea is def a standout with how much flavor and how strong the aroma of the jasmine tea they use. Their sago and other boba toppings are also equally great! They were chewy and complements their drinks. Their ordering and pickup system could use more signs for clarity since they get really crowded and people are swarming inside and outside the store. Also watch out for people illegally parking the narrow street right in front. Popular for a reason. Can't wait to go back! read more

Finally had a chance to try Molly Tea after seeing so much hype on Instagram! It was a little busy when we got there but not too bad. They have garage parking nearby that was free for the first 2 hours just an fyi! There's not much seating in the shop so it's more of a to go place. There's 2 screens to order from or you can place an order via the QR code and then wait for your number to pop up on the screen or a text. I think one thing that could have been better is that when you order, there's a sign that displays your order number as either a drink they're working on or a drink that's ready. But when we saw our number flashing in the ready area, the drink wasn't ready yet. If they could provide some signs that mention this so people weren't confused that would be great. We were waiting in line for our drink but people kept on asking us to move since their drink was "ready" but so was ours according to the sign. Otherwise, I enjoyed our drinks! I got the Jasmine milk tea with oat milk & boba at 50% sugar and it was delicious. The Jasmine flavor def came through and I would go here again! read more

Cute shop with creative tea drinks. I tried the jasmine apple tea, which had a subtle but nice floral, fruity flavor. I found the boba a little soft but overall enjoyed the drink. read more

This is honestly the best milk tea option out in Rockville. I looked at all of the milk, tea shops along that street, and Molly Tea is to go to. It can get pretty crowded, during busy times, but that is expected. I managed to get my order just fine, and did not have any issues. I've been to many of the Molly Tea's in Canada, New York, in California, and this is probably the most easy-going one. The quality is pretty standard to the rest of the branches, and I did not have any issues. Expect the same sort of luxury ambience within the shop. I ordered the jasmine milk tea, and the Gardenia milk tea. This was my first time having the gardenia, which reminds me of the jasmine, but I still prefer the jasmine at the end of the day. read more

Jasmine milk tea with boba and oat milk was very good. The Jasmine definitely jumps out at you. First sip was soooo flavorful. Every sip after was good but not as good as that first sip. Service was fine - you order on a kiosk. It's super cute inside. This location is connected to a restaurant. They have a rewards club. I think they should offer an "extra sweet" option. I also think The cups are a bit small for the price. read more

This place had a lot of hype so I decided to finally go in when it wasn't so busy. Even though there was still a little bit of a line they worked really quickly. The inside is cute, but small and there is no seating outside. I would suggest ordering online and coming to pick it up. In terms of the tea itself, I was surprised at the lack of customization. I expected to be able to choose lactose free milk and the descriptions often talked about freshness so I expected fresh ingredients. It's seems to be a powder mixed with either juice or tea. The flavor was just ok, I think with the level of competition in the area I expected more. Some of the flavors were more unique for example I got the apple milk tea, but I wasn't the biggest fan of the combo. The tapioca bubbles were small and kind of disintegrate in your mouth, maybe thats just how they are, I wouldn't say it was a bad thing it was just different. If I was shopping at the Wegmans I would go back, but I wouldn't go out of my way for this place. read more

Newly opened tea shop in Rockville. It is so popular that the waiting line snarled around the block. It was impossible to get in on weekends, so I went there first thing on Monday morning. The long line thinned, I finally got my drinks. There's no street parking, but there's garage parking available, free for 2 hours. The store looked small and really packed. Yet it wasn't too noisy even with many people waiting for their drinks. The app didn't link the store yet, I was told. So I ordered at the machine by the entrance. I couldn't specify the ice or sugar level, so I ended up getting my drinks with too much sugar and ice. Hopefully next time I visit, I can use the app to customize my drinks. I ordered Premium Jasmine Apple Milk Tea and Snowy Jasmine. Both are ok, not perfect. Too sweet and too much ice for me. read more

There is a parking garage and some street parking. However, a decent amount of people like to idle in the back instead of parking, which can jam the traffic flow. They do have a restroom for customers, but there is not a lot of seating. They have a rewards program, so I recommend downloading the app and joining. I ended up ordering the Gardenia Oolong Milk Tea (sugar 7%, no ice) - medium was the only size option. Since I ordered no ice, my drink was served in a hot beverage cup. I liked their straw design. It took me a while to realize that I needed the straw to puncture the lid for my drink. They were busy during a weekend night. The gardenia floral taste/scent wasn't that strong, but I enjoyed the drink regardless. The caffeine was strong and led to me staying up way late. I had a taste of my friend's matcha drink and will definitely order that next time. read more

Molly Tea is the newest addition to Rockville offering a variety of premium iced and hot teas. It is located in the same area as the wegmans and has two hour free parking. You can order at the kiosk or at the front with the staff. The staff were very helpful in picking drinks and providing recommendations. I went with the Pistachio Jasmine Coconut drink with less ice and 70% sugar per the recommendation of the staff and it did not disappoint at all! The tea was very light and refreshing with a floral Jasmine flavor. The pistachio and coconut were a perfect combination, and I enjoyed the pistachio crumble on top. I really enjoyed my drink at Molly Tea and will definitely be back to try their other offerings. read more

Great tea! So happy they are in the DMV. Lines were long but moved quickly.I recommend the Tongmu Lapsang tea for its bold flavor and aromatics when mixed with matcha or the Jasmine cloud. For safer transport in the cute insulated pink bags. The paper cups have the plastic cover over them. When you want to drink just tear off the plastic over the cup. The straws help release the flavor of the tea. I recommend using it unless you are really thirsty. Staff were very helpful. Easy 5 stars. read more

Came here on their second day open and the line was wrapped around to the entrance of Wegmans. Not a ton of seating but quite a simple and open design for their store front. As part of their promotions, they had a trolly cart and if you showed your receipt you could get a scented bag of jasmine tea and a Maryland crab molly tea magnetic pin. With the deal they had going on, you could get a bogo tea! I ordered the premium jasmine matcha and got the white champaca oolong milk tea. Both were delicious. I've never had champaca, but it tastes good gave nice subtle flavor to the oolong. The premium jasmine was definitely premium tea. It was so tasty and had such a nice floral flavor. The straws were interesting as they were like three coffee stirrer sizes wholes adhered together. It was sleek and thin. One of my friends ordered the pistachio jasmine coconut. Overall lovely teas and great time with friends, would come back and try a lot of their other flavors. read more

Am super excited for another tea place in the area! I've heard great things about Molly tea and the quality of the tea itself. I think their best quality is how fragrant their tea is and the strongest items on the menu are the ones with jasmine tea etc. we went on the opening week and the staff were really organized and efficient even with the amount of people. The storefront itself is small and very cutely decorated. It's more of a stop by and skedaddle type of place as opposed to a sit down cafe. All the items are not too sweet and they have the recommended sweetness automatically set to 70% so you can add more if you'd like. I think the 70% is perfect though. It's unlike other drink/boba shops since the tea is such a focus here, definitely not a place for you if you don't like tea and prefer the flavor more hidden. read more

Came today with a friend for the second day of the Grand Opening. I've literally never waited in line this long for anything, but alas here we are. I got in line around 10:30am and placed my order inside about 1.5 hours later around noon. Then maybe another 20 mins until my order was ready. Took advantage of the BOGO deal and got 4 drinks...all for me! Asked for less ice for everything & I normally do 30% sugar, but I'm glad I went with their recommended 70% sugar because it was already not that sweet. I finished the Snowy Jasmine first - so good and the whipped cream complemented the premium Jasmine green tea nicely & didn't overpower the taste at all. Currently drinking the Tongmu Lapsang Salted Cheese, and I really like this one as well! Highly recommend this if you like more savory drinks or if you're also a fan of cheese in your bbtea. For the free drinks, they needed to be from the floral milk tea series, so I went with the plain premium jasmine milk tea and peach oolong milk tea (have not tasted it yet so can't give my opinion on this one.) First 300 people got the super cute magnetic crab pin & a paper bag, plus the insulated tote bag to carry your drinks in (which effectively kept them cold for several hours until I got home). read more

Came during the official opening and desperately wanted the magnets, so waited quite a bit for them. Staff were super nice and attentive, especially during the massive rush. Didn't really have a chance to be inside the store other than picking up my drinks, mostly waited outside, but their waiting system seems efficient. For the drink itself, I wasn't really impressed. I've had Molly Tea before and would rave about it, but it wasn't amazing this time around. I'm not sure if it's because of the heavy rush or if my taste in jasmine milk tea has changed after being more exposed to them now compared to my first time trying Molly Tea (I think Molly Tea was my first time trying jasmine milk tea ever years ago), but it didn't really taste that flavourful/special, or something worth $7. Perhaps I need to try again when it's less hectic to see how I feel about their drinks when they're not rushing to make drinks. Appreciate the workers so much! read more

I happen to be in the area and decided to join in on the craze. It was a long line to get into the garage under the building, so I parked across the street and walked over (shhh don't tell). When I walked up, the line was at the door. I was like oh boy I'm going to be here for a while. But it turns out there are two kiosks and one person at the register taking orders. So I didn't even take me 5 minutes to order! As soon as I placed my order, I got a number and it popped up on a screen towards where the register is. I thought it was going to be like 10 minutes at least based on the crowd, but that didn't even take 5 minutes... Hands down I was impressed with their efficiency! I got the white champaca with oat milk. Very tasty! I did ask for no ice, but there was still some in there, no big deal. Does anyone else think that their logo is similar to Louis Vuitton?? It's a cute little cafe, but from what I can tell now it's going to be a while before you can expect to be able to sit in there. Especially after work hours. read more

Yay Molly Tea has finally come to the DMV!! Their specialty is jasmine tea-based drinks and it really shines through in their drinks which i love!!

Everyone was all hyped up when this opened so we had to try it! We went on the 2nd or 3rd day after it opened so there wasn't too bad of a line. They seem to be more efficient compared to other tea places during their soft/grand opening. The place is really small but no surprises there. I think most people just buy to go. I tried all of the popular drinks on the menu and have to say, they are a bit underwhelming. They taste very similar to hey tea which is down the street. Don't get me wrong, they are good, but nothing really stands out. I do love the packaging, really cute. Staff are nice, not overly friendly or anything. read more

Clean and beautiful location. Few tables so easier to grab a quick drink (you can order by the touchscreen menus or online). They're quick to fill your drink orders. So since it's busy, order on your phone and you can easily monitor your drink order on the screens they have (they'll announce it once it's ready). I loved my matcha jasmine salted cheese drink. It's got a very nice subtle flavor. Will definitely come again to try more. read more

If you've had Molly Tea in New York you will definitely taste the difference between that and this location... all of the drinks are pretty watered down/too milky and not that usual strong fragrant tea taste that you would find at other locations. I also came here with two friends and my sister also tried my drink and everyone had the same opinion as well. I like how there's a kiosk you can order from, the service was quick, the workers were friendly, and they gave a pretty pink flower cart outside. The inside doesn't have too much seating but there are a couple of benches outside. Maybe it's because they just opened but I hope they can improve the quality to match the other chains. read more

Worse quality ever from Molly tea. The new store seems trying to get many orders ready as soon as possible and neglected the quality of the drink and the brand. My jasmine tea was full of ice to the bottom, despite the normal recommended level is "less ice". Even for a normal ice setting, this is the second time I've tried for the same drink Jasmine tea tasted so plain like just water that has a drop of jasmine essential oil in it, no taste of sweetness though it should have been. This location is just newly open and seems greedy to get as many customers and many order ready as fast as possible, they extremely neglected managing the quality. My order was ready in just 1-2 minute, which no surprise for the poor quality i received. Very sad to see the quality from a high end and high reputation brand Molly tea read more
