50 Best Bubble Tea near Arlington

“Asia Bistro at Pentagon Row is the ideal location to eat and chat with friends on the weekend. Try one of their bento boxes for lunch or enjoy an evening for two with your Asian fusion entrees.“

“Thank you for my bonus drink (iced coconut milk) to try tonight. That was kind but not necessary. The Caribbean Breeze was delicious!!“

“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 have been getting lunch here for a few weeks and trying different menu items. They have been consistent in quality, and are attentive to notes in my orders, and do their best making accommodations. I have really liked everything from the poke bowls to the boba tea, and the staff here is just so nice! I'm not sure how parking is around here, I just walk across the street, but the location is easy to find. It's bright and cheery inside with fun Vietnamese-centered decorations.“

“Great place to hang with friends. When you want to get boba with your friends come here. Grab a board game or bring your own. Bathroom is nice check it out. I thought maybe it wasn't going to be good but I was wrong. The ice cream waffle dessert is something I enjoy getting. Similar to a kung fu tea. I come to this place right after pho 75. I never had any problems. It seems like a hardworking environment.“

“I absolutely love this place, their crepes are incredible. I’ve had the matcha chocolate truffle and the lychee rose and both were excellent. The crepe itself is so crisp and the fillings are always balanced and not too sweet. My only feedback is I wish they had knives and plates to put the crepe on; I was sharing two with a friend and it was impossible to cut them with plastic forks and try to share. Besides that it’s so delicious and I can’t wait to try more of them!“

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

“Above and beyond anything I've had food-wise in DC. First of all, the prices are incredible for the area and the portions are also solid. The beef rice bowls I are PERFECT. The vegetables are delicious, the meat is well-seasoned, the rice is cooked to perfection, and it has just the right amount of both sauce and spice. I'm also a bubble tea fiend and the matcha bubble tea is consistently tasty and mixed very well.
The staff I've spoken to are very personable and sweet, too. Service is incredibly efficient, but not so jarringly quick that it's clearly just taking stuff out of the back and throwing it into a bag. They take the time to prepare your food well. This little place is so, SO worth it.“

“I've had mostly good experiences with this bubble tea place. Their boba is very good and staff are friendly. Whenever there were any issues with my order or points collected, the staff helped resolve the issue promptly, which I greatly appreciate.“

“definitely best boba in dmv, even the world! we are regulars here (1-3 times a week) and never go to a different place—not even other kung fu tea locations! atmosphere is great—they play cheerful music. staff are welcoming and so so kind. boba is delicious too! chewy, sweet, and refreshing! love this boba place so much i cannot put it in words.“

“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.“

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

“From the moment you step in, it's like entering a boba paradise. The aroma alone is enough to make your taste buds sing. I always go for their signature Milk Tea with pearls – the tea is perfectly brewed, the milk is creamy, and the pearls are delightfully chewy.

But let's be real, it's the experience that seals the deal. The staff are always super friendly and helpful, even when there's a line out the door. Plus, the customizable sweetness levels mean you can tailor your drink to perfection. Trust me, darling, Gong Cha is not just a tea shop; it's a whole mood.“

“Good service and great staff. My daughter loved her tea.“

“Finally tried the sushi burrito here and it was 10/10 and I washed it down with some boba tea. Some friends got the Ramen and everyone enjoyed their food. Great spot in Georgetown for a quick bite or boba. This place exceeds the vibe check too.“

“The absolutely ecstatic employee Thao was such a great ball of energy to be around! So kind and patient and was able to accomodate me as well as she can speak Vietnamese and English. She was so patient and humble and I am truly thankful for such an experience!“

“Amazing tea, great staff, definitely recommend!“

“Omg! Great tea shop! Just stopped in and took a recommendation for the Jasmine milk tea with boba, awesome. Please open one in Colorado, we have a huge demographic for tea. Thanks!“

“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.“

“Delicious boba—especially the taro milk one! And it's a really cool atmosphere with chill music!“

“(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 ? ?“

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

“Fun food, good portions, friendly environment“

“Nice and fast service, we’re love it“

“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.“

“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).“

“I ordered a to-go banh mi and it was great, definitely the best I have ever had. Everything is just perfect. I usually do not like mayonnaise but theirs is just so light and flavorful. 10/10. Will visit next time here as well.

中国人不偏中国人 真的好吃“

“I love trying out places with unique drinks and Ben Gong's Tea in Annandale is a location with many unique drinks. Of course, they have your traditional boba tea and various fruits teas but I love their fermented rice milk tea series. I appreciate how a lot of their drinks come with crystal jellies already too. Also highly recommend their strawberry yukult if you love fruity and sweet drinks!

Their drinks are not very sweet to begin with so if you prefer sweeter drinks I recommend going with 70%+ sugar. Around 50% and less it isn't really sweet anymore!“

“Absolutely delicious. The only ice cream store I know of that will split a single. Wonderful customer experience.“

“This place is so good. Clean, friendly staff, great location and the best thing about it is that they use real fresh fruits, all the flavors are natural and fresh, unlike the competition with 2x1 that uses syrup and cheap ingredients. You can taste the freshness here, also the amount of sugar is on point, not too much, not too little. If you see a place that gives you 2x1 I always never trust them, it means their Ingredients must be cheap. I'd go with Moge 100% of the time.“

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

“My favorite boba tea place in town! 🧋😋“

“Delicious tea, scones, chai, and latkas“

“First off, the food here is amazing. Fair prices and great portion sizes. Very casual dining. You come in sit down with the menu and order at the front and they bring the food to you. I had the wintermelon milk tea and that was amazing too. Servers could be a smidgen friendlier/welcoming. But im here for the food and the food was amazing. Stop by here and you wont regret it.“

“best bun cha ha noi in town.“

“Delightfully decorated, adorable eat in and take out place with Vietnamese fusion entrees, salads and bubble tea. Had a vegetarian Bao bun and it was delicious. Daughter ordered milk tea with boba and raved about it. Very friendly staff. Looking forward to coming back.“

“As Kung Fu tea establishments go, this one is quite nice. I love the games, TV, claw machines, & outdoor seating. The indoor seating is somewhat flexible, but kind of limited. If you're coming with a big group, keep that in mind. It was raining when we came so, no outdoor seating for us. But the music was pumping & drinks were tasty as always. Although...did the prices go up?

Restrooms are clean as of this posting. No changing table in the men's room. Parking is limited but close to the store or on the side.“

“I have been here several times, I feel I should leave a review. The place is super friendly, I got a welcome smile when I entered, was given ample time to make my choices, and boy there are many choices, was amazed by what I purchased, will defiantly come back again to try something new.“

“I walked in and ordered a smoothie and a chocolate croissant. Service was slow because there was only one person at the counter. My croissant had too much chocolate in it I had to toast 2 slices of a baguette to make up for the excess chocolate. The chocolate was perfect! (-not bitter and not too sweet-) My croissant came with a few slices of cantaloupe. All in all a great experience!“

“Soupy Dumpling & Fancy Cuppa is my new go-to spot for comfort food. The soup dumplings are perfectly juicy and flavorful, the spicy beef noodle soup has a rich, satisfying broth with just the right kick, and the mango bubble tea is refreshing and not overly sweet. Everything tastes fresh and made with care. The place is cozy, the service is friendly, and the prices are reasonable for the quality. Definitely worth a visit! Oh they have robots running around so can be fun with kids.“

“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.

“excellent offerings. loved it. will be back for the ice cream“

“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!“

“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.“

“LOVE this little shop!! The drinks are SO delicious! Will definitely be a place we will be visiting again! The atmosphere is calming and the girls working were so sweet. Very cute and chic!“

“We got the
- bbq brisket on top of fries: good flavor and the brisket had great smokiness. It was too salty. I would get it again and ask for less salt. Otherwise, was very tasty!
- Cinnamon Toast Crunch boba 25% sugar: very yummy. Also, this is such a fun flavor that you don’t find in other places. would buy again!
- strawberry mango boba plus jellies : my husband got this and enjoyed it.

We would definitely come back here if we are in the area.“

“We stopped here for bubble tea and a smoothie. The bubble tea was great, and there was a lot of options. I had a few critiques though, so I didn't give it a 5 star:

1. The trash was overfilled and nobody was changing it.
2. The smoothie was too much ice / not enough juice. The proportions were a little off.
3. The inside was quite warm, and there was no AC, and it was a fairly hot day.

I'd go back for the bubble tea though!“

“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.“

“My favorite Pad thai with shrimp“
