Probably one of the better milk tea establishments here in Georgetown. The girl at the front making the bubble tea was very nice and quick with making the order--it is a bit hidden though and be aware that Apple Maps will take you to the alleyway which is NOT where you should be going. The milk teas were both sweet treats for sure. Brown sugar is a favorite and really sweet--good for those who cannot have tea. I also got the taro milk tea which was very pretty with a strong taro flavor. They've been here for about 3 years already according the girl at the front. Very aesthetically pleasing and pretty sturdy packaging. The milk tea flavors are pretty standard so I wouldn't expect much but the pricing is very fair in this economy. read more

The worker was super nice! The bathrooms were clean and smelled great. There's ice cream for sale too. I wasn't the biggest fan of the boba itself tho. I probably wouldn't come again read more

Stopped in with a friend on a Sunday afternoon with low expectations. Got the kumquat lemon passion fruit tea at 50% sweet and less ice and my friend got a passion fruit tea with boba. Mine came out pretty quick, but my friend had to wait like 20 min for hers. I think the boba wasn't ready yet or something? Two people who ordered after her got their tea before she got hers, and the bobarista didn't apologize or explain anything. She was also on her phone looking bored the whole time, but whatever. The tea was pretty good for what it was. Not too sweet, and nice tartness. I could taste the occasional passion fruit seed, so it was definitely not just all flavoring. Just wish the prices weren't sooo high for what it is. $8-9 for boba is crazy to me. read more

Cute little shop in Georgetown with a boba shop on the ground level and a ramen shop downstairs. You order at a touch screen which I like since it gives me time to figure out what I want. It was insanely hot out so I tried the lychee mojito with crystal boba which was very refreshing. I didn't add any myself, but I was surprised to see alcohol on the list of toppings you could add to your drink! I'll have to come back and try their tapioca boba next. read more

They didn't accept the yelp check in $1 off bc both of the workers didn't know how to do that :( Got the kumquat lemon passion fruit with boba and it was alright since none of the flavors were super strong. The boba was a little too chewy for me. Cute little place and they have the option to spike your drinks for additional $3 read more

Since it was raining, we took cover in this little establishment. There is the fun option of adding a shot of vodka, tequila, or rum to your order. My friends and I ordered their Taro Milk Tea, Thai ice Milk Tea, and Strawberry Green Tea. You can definitely tell that they use powder or their drinks. Overall I was not very welld by the flavors, service, or bobas themselves. Not sure if I would come back again. read more

BeauTea - Taro Milk Tea, Thai ice Milk Tea, and Strawberry Green Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

I like how Beautea has long hours and a fairly clean establishment with bright lights and nice looking displays (including a good ordering kiosk). However, I found the drinks and drink selection to be a bit underwhelming. The simple menu could be to help alleviate staffing problems as there were only two employees working during my visit (hence why they asked people to order from the kiosk, so they could have 2 drink makers instead of 1 cashier and 1 drink maker). The purple pineapple sparking drink looked pretty but I found it to be a bit too sweet and without a strong carbonation element or other unique feature - was kind of flat.. almost like a colorful fruit juice. The brown sugar milk tea was equally too sweet, and I found the tea to be a bit too mild where it was drowned out quite a bit by the milk. Overall - not a bad place to get a drink but nothing in particular would really entice me to visit here over other options. read more

Had a boba craving kick in while visiting Georgetown, so we found our way to BeauTea. Though we are not knew to the BeauTea chain, this was our first time visiting this location. Our drinks were crafted well and tasted good. Service was efficient and the woman working the counter and making the drinks patiently answered questions that we posed. Once our order was placed she was quick to put them together. The inside space was clean with a few tables available for patrons to enjoy their drinks in the establishment. We did have a little trouble finding the entrance and building as the signage wasn't immediately clear where they were located. Also, at the time of our visit, they were only taking orders through the self-service kiosk. This was not a problem for us, but if you are a little technology-phobic, just be aware that the staff was not taking orders and you had to do so through the kiosk on your own. We ended up trying the Taro Milk Tea and Rose Honey Milk Tea. The Taro Milk Tea was classic and tasted exactly as we expected. The Rose Honey Milk Tea was unique and tasted so refreshing, especially on a warm, humid afternoon. This was my first time tasting this drink and I loved it. The boba was a nice addition to the Rose Honey Milk Tea. Not too sweet and a good texture. BeauTea in Georgetown is a solid location to get your bubble tea/boba fix. They even had some boozy options/additions if that's your cup of tea (hehe). read more

First, they accepted the Yelp check-in coupon to have $1 off per drink order! Instead of using the kiosk, go up to the front and pay with an individual. I've been to many boba spots in DC, and this one is the best I've found yet. Tea was fresh, and I especially enjoyed the consistency of the boba - soft and chewy. Would definitely come again! Service was also pretty fast considering the number of people who were ordering. Ambiance was quiet and pleasant. Next time, I'll have to check out their restaurant upstairs! read more

This is the only bubble tea place I know that will spike your tea (for a fee). You can make alcoholic bubble teas! I haven't tried one yet but it always stood out. The drink sizes are large, one size, and you pay the DC premium. The boba is average in texture and taste but they make decent drinks in unique flavors! read more

Unpopular opinion: I'm not a huge fan of the tall cups. It was especially problematic when I ordered from UberEats and the drink did not come with a straw. I tried drinking from the cup but spilled a bit on myself since having such a narrow cup doesn't quite work well here. Definitely a minor inconvenience but something to be noted. The Thai Ice Milk Tea was really pretty, but extremely sweet. I would order this if you are a fan of sweets, but this wasn't quite it for me. I prefer to taste more of the Thai Tea, but got a lot of the condensed milk instead. The boba was also on the harder side and not as chewy as I would have liked. I think I will probably try this again, but with another drink. I would love to go to their physical location, it looks really cute. read more

(Tip) If you check in on Yelp, you can get a $1 off! But you have to place the order with a person (not on the kiosk) to get the discount Kiosks are very convenient, visible and easy to use You just place the order,pay for it and then wait for the staff to call up your order number This is the only bubble tea place I've been to that also offers alcohol and can add a shot of something to your drink ( be prepared to show your ID) (Purple Pineapple) with a shot of rum The rum shot was very light and hardly taste it The drink was light sweet flavor (Earl Oolong tea) I could hardly taste the tea It was very diluted taste even tho I got "less ice" (Bathroom) In the back Pretty clean but make sure you lock the door! I also wish they listed the ingredients in certain drink combos. I still don't know what was in the Pineapple Purple read more

My friend and I dropped by last Sunday afternoon. The store was busy with a lot of customers but we had a brief wait to use one of the 2 kiosks to order. The confusing part was the percentage of the sugar: 25, 50, 75, or 100. I wasn't sure what that converted to in terms of grams of sugar or what the "normal" was. I chose 75% but it wasn't sweet enough but that is on me I guess. The employees were friendly and transactional. The interior vibe is cool, music was playing, and there is a handful of seats. I would come back. read more

Very solid Boba shop! Had the Dragonfruit and Taro milk foam. Both well-made and flavorful. Did it have a specific uniqueness to separate it from the other boba shops? Not really. They are also located in Georgetown so I would imagine the rent must be insane so that is why the drinks are so expensive. This is why I wouldn't go out my way for them even though everything I had was satisfactory! They get bonus points for offering chili wontons, noodles, takoyaki etc. since they have Reren next door (same owner). If they relocated and had cheaper prices then they'd definitely be a five star for me. read more

OK, I had been to BeauTea last summer to get cold boba tea, and it was pretty good. I made the mistake of coming back today (in December) and ordering two hot boba teas in the medium size. Problems: 1 - they, um, can't make hot tea -- the tea they gave us was lukewarm, at best. When I brought it back to the counter and told them, the gal behind the counter told me that they couldn't make hot tea because of the machinery, and because the milk is cold. She wasn't exactly clear, but apparently this isn't because something is broken: they just can't make hot tea (despite it being a prominent part of their menu). After I got a refund and was walking out, she told me they *could* make the mocha and taro flavors hot, but not the other flavors. Huh? OK, I got the taro and it was hot and good. 2 - the lids don't work with boba -- if you order the hot boba tea in medium, the cup they give you has a lid that . . . doesn't work with boba straws. Should I repeat that? Their boba tea lids don't work with boba straws. The gal told me -- I'm not kidding -- that I should drink just the tea until the level is low enough not to spill, then remove the lid and use the boba straw. Let me emphasize that THIS IS A BOBA TEA SHOP. That can't make hot tea, and has cup lids that don't work with boba tea. ‍ read more

So I'm obsessed with boba, If you couldn't tell from my yelp profile. Anyway, this boba is delicious ! One of the best I've had. The sweetness level was perfect! Chef's kiss. The store itself is clean, pearly white, and has good lighting. You have to order with the kiosk. There's also alcohol here, so you can add shots to your tea! The service is also fast, and the baristas are helpful with any questions asked. read more

BeauTea is a really cute spot (with a very adorable and punny name) perfect for studying, a casual hang-out with friends, or a follow-up to a great bowl of ramen from Reren, a ramen restaurant (with strong Chinese influences) right upstairs. The interior is absolutely gorgeous; it's incredibly modern and clean, with mostly black and white decor and clean geometric shapes. There are outlets under the tables where you can charge your devices, which makes it perfect for studying, but the seating is generally pretty limited, so I wouldn't expect to be able to stick around if you're coming with a large group. The tea itself was....okay. Especially considering all the glowing reviews I had heard around Georgetown (albeit most of them came over the summer before Gong Cha opened, so BeauTea was the only boba shop in the area), I was incredibly hyped to test this spot out. I found that the tea was a bit overpriced, although I must admit that the cups are large and super aesthetically appealing, especially their fruit teas. This place also tends to run 25-60% over on sweetness, which was really tough for me as someone who usually prefers between 0 and 25% sugar. I tried their mango green tea and thought it was solid (albeit not much different than, say, Gong Cha or Kung Fu Tea, which will give you the same quality but for half the price), but my friend had their brown sugar milk tea and found that it was incredibly watery. He described it as "mostly sugar and milk, with a splash of tea." In general, I would recommend going for their fruit teas and reducing the sugar level beyond what you would normally put it at. It's a phenomenal location if you love ramen, want something to sip on while taking a walk by the Georgetown Waterfront, or just love taking aesthetic photos of drinks, but when it comes to the actual quality of the boba...I'll probably take a pass on this one. read more

Was in the area.. decided to stop by after seeing all the reviews.. Good boba! They have a buy 2 get one free deal... so I got the taro milk tea, brown sugar boba and match tea! I got the brown sugar boba 75% sweetness but it was still a little too sweet for me... so I would recommend 50% if u don't like ur drinks too sweet. They also have 15% off for their noodle.. i got their signature loman... it didn't travel as well but I have a feeling it prob will taste very good when fresh The cashier was super nice, patient and friendly! Will definitely come back again! read more

Always great fruit tea. Really refreshing after walking around Georgetown! Worth a stop!

While visiting from Georgia, we searched online for a boba place near our hotel & happened to stop in right before closing. Instead of them rushing us because we showed up so late, we were greeted in such a friendly way by both owners. They made awesome recommendations, told us about their commitment to quality, using real fruit & organic honey & even let us sample their mango boba. Everything was fresh & delicious. We even noticed that the quality of their cups were superior. Some of the best boba we've had! We are trying to squeeze in another visit before heading back home! read more

BeauTea Ratings: 3.4 Food: 3/5 - My boyfriend and I was craving boba after our omakase dinner, so we decided to find one in DC. BeauTea was the only place that was open in DC at that time, and we thought it was just okay. See the descriptions of the two drinks we got below. - Taro Milk Tea w/ Crystal Boba [GET]: Drink has a strong taro flavor. I think they use taro powder, and there's no taro paste in the drink. The crystal boba was pretty good, chewy and firm. My boyfriend got 25% sweetness and less ice, and it was just the right amount of sweetness. - Golden Oolong Milk Tea w/ Sago & Crystal Boba [SKIP]: I decided to try something different from here, and it was not good. There was not that strong oolong tea flavor, taste very diluted. The crystal boba is just like how I described in the previous drink. The sage was good and fresh with a good texture. I would recommend getting a different drink instead. Ambiance: 3.75/5 - BeauTea is located in Georgetown, DC next to a ramen spot. This place is bright-lit, well-maintenance, clean and spotless. I think the modern and simple look is on point, but the interior is quite small. There are limited tables and chairs to sit inside, but still a good place to grab a quick boba drink at night or in Georgetown, since they open pretty late. Price: 3/5 - Each drinks was around $6.25, and we both got crystal boba as our toppings for an additional $0.75. Each drink was about $7.70. The two drinks came up to be around $17 after taxes. The price is definitely higher than most boba places in the DMV area, and I think it was not worth it. Service: 4/5 - The staff is polite and friendly, similar to most boba places. We came in right before they were about to close, but we didn't feel rushed or anything. Also, I forgot to check-in for the $1 off deal until after my boyfriend paid, and she was able to accommodate it, and gave me an additional topping instead. BLUF: Cute atmosphere, mediocre tea and toppings, and pricy. The drinks lack tea flavor and nothing about them really stand out to me for that price, besides the décor, so I was quite disappointed. I will probably not return again. read more

Drink was mediocre at best but what's worse is that the cashier was playing dumb on me when I asked her to ease on the ingredients and can drop the whole thing if needed, she told me that she could not do it any less. Excuse me mz, I tipped you and was helping you save your ingredients. When I asked her about the Wi-Fi passcode, she lied outright saying that's she does not know for the Wi-Fi is only for the checkout systems, while using Wi-Fi on her own devices. You don't have the least respect at this place at all. Overall won't come back again or recommend to other people. read more

Overrated tbh! I was really excited to try their bubble tea, but I was honestly disappointed. They have tons of promos, including $1 off for the Yelp check-in (which is what attracted me to BeauTea in the first place). Their menu is pretty small and the prices are a bit high. You could easily go to gong cha and get something better. I'm convinced people go here for the aesthetic because the quality of the drinks are below average. The tea is massive, yet watery and flavorless. The lychee mojito contained not even a hint of the sweet lychee taste I know and love, and even though the drink was packed with mint, I didn't even taste the mint. Huh? Plus their cups are so long that the straw does not even reach the bottom of the cup far enough to grab any boba. Poor design, overpriced, and overrated. Not to mention, I dropped $8. Bummer. read more

Staff were super friendly. Ordered Brown Sugar Bubble Tea. It was made with Black Milk Tea, not just milk which I liked because it added more flavor-- Brown Sugar Drinks sometimes just taste like sugar-y milk. The syrup mixed in the drink quickly and completely and it tasted good. The boba was flavorful and had a good, fresh texture. One thing was that the the cup was longer than the straw so it was hard to drink up the boba with the tea. All in all, my drink was great and the staff were super friendly and nice. read more

Wasted my time trying to find parking in Georgetown to visit this spot after commuting from Williamsburg at night and then I come arrive in the store 15 mins before 11PM and they say they're closed. Hours says they're open till 11PM and the barista says they stop taking orders 10-15 mins before they close. 20-30 mins of time driving in DC I won't get back and the fact that the parking I paid for like 5-10 mins cost $6. Never coming back to this spot when I ever visit Georgetown again. Need to just change their hours to 10:30PM and actually be open the designated time they say they are. read more

Have you ever had spiked bubble tea? BeauTea serves alcoholic bubble teas for those who are interested in a little happy hour action! I came here one afternoon with a friend for a content shoot and the drinks were refreshing and delightful. I tried the Sassy Lychee with a shot of vodka and Taro Milk Tea. The Sassy Lychee has to be my favorite out of the two not because it's spiked, but the flavor wasn't too sweet and it's just the way I like my drinks. The space is small inside with a few tables but they have touch screen kiosks to order your drinks if you're taking it to-go. If you're feeling hungry, Reren is located on the 2nd floor of BeauTea! read more

Loved coming here on a spring Saturday afternoon. They have great Boba and many flavor options. The space is clean and the employees work efficiently. For a tiny little store, there were three employees and they were all hustling! There was a huge line inside that extended outside. The young lady at the front counter took our order and we were in and out in 10ish minutes. I will say the small room was quite packed with waiting customers, so not super covid friendly waiting area, but the employees all wore masks and practiced cleanliness while preparing our food. I will be back! read more
