39 Best Bubble Tea near College Park

“Overall, the grape milk foam drink was amazing and the workers were lovely. I definitely think this is the best boba spot in college park! Living at the View, it’s super convent to stop by in between and after classes. I am coming back for sure!“

“Store layout is great! Would be a really good hangout place if no covid to worry about. Their "cold signature milk tea" is the HK style tea and different than the other bubble tea you had. Highly recommend the "curry fish ball" and their egg waffle (we had the classic style). Will definitely visit again!“

“Good food, good customer service. Best place to get Asian food in College Park.“

“I had a craving for sushi and checked uber eats and they had a buy one get one free deal on a few items! We took advantage of the bogo deal and chose the sashimi appetizer (salmon, yellowtail, and tuna) and the spicy salmon roll. All of the fish were so fresh and tasty. We also grabbed an avocado salad which comes with ginger dressing. In my opinion, the dressing is a bit on the sweeter side and would have preferred less so. Definitely a winner in my book for quick service that’s dependable regarding freshness and taste!“

“We got lucky and had lunch here during a day of tourism. Inexpensive and great food and boba. The cook (who was the only one working there as you can order with the ipad) was nice and the place was clean and cozy. We went at an off-peak time so we were able to sit at the counter but I imagine that during lunch rush it must mostly be for takeout as there are few seats. Also I don't think they had a bathroom as I looked around for one and didn't see it. It wasn't an emergency situation though so did not ask to use one.“

“We had dinner here for the first time on Thursday night, and it was such a treat. Service was amazing. Cocktails were fabulous. Food was good. And the overall ambience was so lovely. Highly recommend a spicy margarita, ordered less sweet. It was sooo good. Would go back for this drink alone. We would go back for the drinks and service and ambience for sure.“

“The coffee is fantastic! And the people who work there go out of their way to get your beverage perfect.“

“love it there. So much to do and eat. Palette22 drew me there, and I found a great entertainment distinct full of fun times. I plein air painted Morse Alley. Cool spot.“

“I have been wanting to eat at this ramen place for a while and today on 12/29/25 , I finally visited taichi bubble tea and I had their tomato based vegetarian ramen soup and their matcha boba milk tea and it was so flavorful , tasty , filling , and delicious. since I'm vegetarian , I appreciate the fact that staff helped me choose the vegetarian option to avoid eating ramen with meat or fish broth. Taichi bubble tea is now of my favorite ramen places in DC. Thank you for accomodating vegetarians like myself and for providing unique boba drinks too.“

“ETea was see at the Asian Festival on May the 17th. It was gloriously hot day and their teas were so yummy I had 4. Every one I tried tasted super and the BlueBerry was my all time Fav. I plan on going into DC to try more offerings from ETea soon. Maybe do something after I have a tea and snacks in hand. All who were king were happy and helpful too. Sorry the pix won’t work.“

“Excelente batidos muy delicioso 🤤 lo recomiendo mucho excelente servicio 🥰😍✨y muy amable el personal excelente ✨🥰gracias #DCBOBA“

“This place is unique and a delight to have in pentagon row! They have flavors I’ve never had anywhere before. The staff is friendly and the ice cream is made in house and it’s absolutely wonderful! Good excuse to take a walk to try every flavor! Yummy!!!“

“I was in town from Tampa Florida and found Share tea across the street from my hotel. I went twice in the same day I loved it so much.!!! I am still thinking about the tea I had..:not sure if I will be able to find a place here in Tampa as good as ShareTea … The girl was also so helpful that was working there to explain the different teas that I could have.“

“Ethan, Jarron, and Leesly were so friendly when my friends and I stopped by! Even though we came almost before closing, they were sweet and kind in helping us choose drinks. Amazing service and tasty boba :) we will definitely return again soon (and at an earlier time in the day haha).“

“(Translated by Google) I highly recommend this place for the attention and kindness of Miss Velma .......and they prepare the very tasty bubble teas. I always come back for mine ? ?(Original)Recomiendo muy bien este lugar por la atención y amabilidad de la señorita velma .......y los bubble tea muy ricos los preparan siempre vuelvo por el mio ? ?“

“Love this place!! My favorite go-to at least twice a week. Can’t wait for them to re-open!!“

“Delicious tea, scones, chai, and latkas“

“Very friendly staff and drinks were prepared fast and furious“

“❣️Wow, wonderfully delicious.
Had Starla as a waitress and she was simply such a gem, was very timely with everything. Sweetly explained the menu and gave incredible recommendations!
Because of her attentiveness I would 10/10 visit again.

The food was delicious, bubble tea flavors and pearls were fresh and simple. I would say it leans more toward an America flavor pallet depending on your selection but Im sure there are some sophisticated options if that's where your pallet tends to lean.

I got the chai latte light sugar&ice and my hubby greatly enjoyed Starla's PineappleMango suggestion. So yummy, so fun.

I love the bright decor and semi-exclusive dining options; certainly would love to meet the family here during an outing.

The bathroom was super clean and had a large mirror great for freshening up.

Certainly would recommend for DC visitors.

I got the Lucky dumpling back. Personal favorite of the bunch was the black Truffle so I know next visit which basket I'll lean more toward.

✨️BONUS: Their bowl, cups and utensil charger had a very elegant weight to them which was incredibly comforting and added a coziness to the experience.

All in all, great spot for mid-day nummies🥟🧋☺️👍✨️“

“I LOVE THIS PLACE!!! Others do too- it gets busy shortly after it opens. I have had the Pho, Bahn MI, Vietnamese spring rolls with peanut sauce and I have to get the Green Thai Tea. I have gone back for that alone. I love it! Try it, you won't regret it!“

“Amazing!! Family owned business, and the portions + prices made the commercial poke bowl restaurants look embarrassing!! I only got the regular size but look how much salmon came with mine! Will be back, can’t believe i’ve lived here forever and have not had this place.“

“We go to Whale Tea pretty regularly since it’s opened up. My favorites are the oolong tea with foam and aloe, and my kids like the brown sugar milk teas with pearls. They also really like trying the seasonal drinks and that there’s cake pops and macarons :)

The shop aims to be a third space, to integrate with the community - it’s modern and cozy, excellent bathroom, and whoever selects the music does a good job. I like sitting there and reading around lunchtime, and often there are uni students on their laptops.
For warm weather, there’s a waiting area for dogs with toys and water bowls/jugs. Right now in winter, they’ve put out a dome for outside seating and decorated it with lights :)

I love chatting with the owner and the staffers, and learning a bit about the business and them as people. They don’t mind my adhd kids 😅😝

The only thing I hope they see growth in is figuring out their target market. They started as a clear high-end-tea boba shop, with a taste that is probably more accepted in Rockville than DC (fresh fruit in the tea, tea base that is never oversteeped, excellent boba prep, foam that is salty - all the things i like).

As they are figuring out their business model, the menu has expanded vastly and hasn’t stabilized yet.

I think this business wants more to welcome and love people than it cares about selling a particular food. Once they figure out how to present this consistently as a brand, it’ll be perfect.“

“Teaism Dupont Circle Washington, DC I am not a great cook and I get too tired of eating the same old thing day in and day out so I decided to try something new after leaving my acupuncture session today. Well, needless to say the creamy curry spinach with cheese cubes and brown rice made my day.“

“I had such a beautiful experience here. It wasn’t just about the tea (which was absolutely delicious, by the way)—it was the kindness, the care, and the way I was received.

Justin’s service is beyond amazing— I honestly felt like I was being seen and nourished in a way I didn’t expect.
He remembered my son and I — and what my son ordered from about two days ago.. He didn’t have to remember, but he did!
The environment is welcoming, peaceful, and full of small, intentional gestures that linger with you. It’s the kind of place you’ll want to return to—not just for the tea, but for the energy.

Thank you Justin ,for your warmth. We will never forget about you and will come back again!“

“Gong Cha in Arlington never misses. Their Hong Kong milk tea is absolutely out of this world, the passion fruit green tea is extraordinary, and you truly can’t go wrong with the classic pearl black milk tea. The baristas are always friendly and accommodating, and they pack everything really well—perfect for taking your drinks on the go or in the car.“

“We ordered 4 drinks: mango pomelo sago (mine), thai milk tea, brown sugar milk tea, and mango passion green tea. I only had a picture of my drink below. They were out of bubbles that day, but we picked other toppings instead so it was all good. The staff was super nice and friendly; they gave me the super cute cup and straw sleeves! The store was clean and cozy but a bit small.

The drinks were very tasty. I tried my dad’s mango passion green tea, and we both thought it was refreshing. My brother and uncle got the other 2 drinks, and they liked theirs too. For my mango pomelo sago, I ordered cream cheese foam with it, but there wasn’t much so the flavor didn’t come through—I had expected to taste some creaminess and saltiness from the foam. The mango was sweet enough to my liking. It was generally good; I’m just picky when it comes to mango. To sum up, I’d recommend this place and come back!“

“I came in today and got a white chocolate milk tea. It was very sweet so I recommend reducing the sugar level to suit your taste. It was only $5 for 24 oz which is a lot better than some of the other options I have seen. The staff were very friendly and willing to correct the sweetness level of my drink with more tea. I definitely recommend it.

Vegetarian options: Just avoid gelatin toppings

Dietary restrictions: Dairy free, lactose free“

“Good customer service the tea was great“

“I also ordered a basic pearl milk tea at 70% sugar. The milk tea itself tasted good great even, but the sweetness was a little off. The sugar or syrup they used tasted more like a sugar substitute, almost like the sweetness you get from chewing gum. Not bad, just not the typical milk tea sweetness I expected.

Overall, decent milk tea with a slightly unusual sweetener taste. I’d try other flavors before deciding if I wanted write this place off for milk tea.“

“The Chai is my latest obsession! Stopped in while visiting the White House and was blown away. The food was freshly prepared, hot and tasty. Service was fast and friendly. I would definitely frequent this eatery if I lived locally. For now, I am ordering their Chai online.“

“Gong Cha in Georgetown was overall a pretty standard bubble tea experience—nothing particularly special, but it met expectations. Ordering was convenient with two kiosks available, and the drinks tasted just as expected. The interior didn’t feel especially clean, which was a bit of a downside.

However, the egg waffle was absolutely perfect—crispy and delicious! I’d definitely come back just for the waffle.“

“This place is amazing! I usually order the spicy teriyaki and it's always flavourful and has a bit of heat. I also usually get the taro milk tea and it's sweet and delightful!

The inside of the place is warm and colorful. There are two registers, one for Gong Cha and one for Fuji Teriyaki.

The staff here are really friendly as well and add to the experience.“

“It was my 1st and it won’t be my last...Love, love it😍“

“Excellent tea excellent service!!“

“Went today and ordered an Oreo Wow. The drink was very tasty (love the brown sugar boba)! Cashier and drink maker were extremely nice and helpful! Establishment was clean and the music was great ??. Definitely will be coming back with my family and friends. Highly recommend!“

“I rarely ever a review but I had for Fuji Japan! Betty the owner was super sweet and the food was amazing! I go to a lot of Japanese or Hibachi places and this is by far my favorite. This would be 5 star review - lowest 4.8. Also very reasonable pricing and great portion size. Betty explained that the ingredients are home made and you can definitely tell the authentic taste!“

“Great little place! First time here, so did not try their corn dogs. But, wow, probably the best chicken tenders I've ever had! Amazing soft, juicy, intensely flavorful. They had like 5 or 6 dipping sauces, and I got hot so my mouth is now completely on fire. Next time will likely choose medium.“

“The yougart is not very sweet, then their green tea w taro is very good too.“

“There is absolutely nothing wrong with the customer service here. People seem to be expecting some magical experience in a tea shop and the people working there are nothing short of great. The mango yogurt tea is by far the best tea I’ve ever had. Does not deserve the reviews by any means..“
