While in the area I was looking for a cafe. Went on yelp... and found another Bubble tea spot. Walking into this place puts you in another region of the world mentally. The decor is unmatched. The young lady behind the counter greeted immediately and was helpful with my undecisiveness. I chose the Mango Marble Green Tea Latte substituted milk with oat and added regular pearls. The young lady did inform me the base of this drink is regular milk made. It wasnt a lot so I decided to keep my selection. I am excited that I kept my selection as its one I would have never chose as I only get non dairy drinks with lychee and boba. Its a little on the costly side for a 16oz but I will definitely return if in the area. read more

Love this location! The staff is always so welcoming and greet you as soon as you walk in the door. It's beautifully decorated with florals, plenty of seating, gacha machines with prizes, and board games. I love the self order kiosks and greatly appreciate how the staff always lets you know when there are promotions! I've gotten so many cute keychains from here after my drink purchases. Speaking of the drinks, this location has never messed up my orders whether I order in person or for pick up, great spot! read more

I tried the oolong milk bubble tea here and the tapioca boba had excellent chewy consistency. You can customize the sweetness level in your drink, and 50% was just right for me, not too sweet. Great oolong tea flavor and the ambiance inside is beautiful with lots of seating! read more

Fast and friendly service. Clean location. You can choose to order with a cashier or you can order through the kiosk and never interact with another human being. Making my way through all the flavors. Today I tried the Vietnamese Coffee with foam. I didn't mind it, but you're not able to change the ice level. This drink is mostly ice. read more

Best boba I've ever had. For the past few years I swore against bubble tea because it would always make my stomach hurt. I came into here expecting to get my normal mango tea with lychee jelly but my curiosity got the best of me and I ended up getting the DIRTY BROWN SUGAR LATTE WITH PEARL (look at photo attached for specifications). This was the best drink I've ever had, it's started a good but bad thing- I have been craving boba every day since, and no other place compares. The tapioca pearls are unmatched here. I literally can't get enough of the pearls, they're so squishy and they don't make my stomach hurt at all SERVICE- self kiosk. I also came across who I suspect to be the owner or manager... beautiful woman and made sure I was taken care of. read more

Today is Asian Lunar New Year! So in Cantonese, we say Gong Hai Fat Choi, wising everyone a happy, prosperous year! We really enjoyed the performance organized by Gong Cha and the local community of Asian lion dancers at this wonderful tea shop today! It was lively, fun and comedy too. We got to enjoy some delicious treats while enjoying the show; a mango green tea milk foam smoothie, a strawberry green milk tea with almond jelly, and a vanilla bubble waffle. We had a wonderful time today. Thanks Gong Cha for hosting such a wonderful community event! read more

This place is so beautifully decorated. It's has a cool vibe and the staff was so welcoming. I enjoy that they have 100%, 70%, 50%, 30% and 0% sweet when making just about any drink on their menu. I can't wait to go back and try other options! read more

A beautiful and fun spot to hangout at! The moment we walked in, the workers acknowledged us and gave a warm welcome. The drinks are flavorful and aesthetically pleasing for pictures! There are many areas in the shop that you can take pictures of. Come here if you want to play board games with anyone and play with crane machines! read more

This is our favorite bubble tea location. The restaurant is very clean and well lit. There are board games to play as well as some claw machines if you want to hang out and stay for awhile to enjoy your drinks or a delicious egg waffle. :) We were greeted when we walked in, the service is always very fast and friendly! The touch screen kiosks make it easy to read about each menu item in detail without having to ask the employees a bunch of questions if you are unfamiliar with the menu. You can also order at the counter with an employee. Additionally, you can place an order on the easy to use mobile app. If you order through the app or provide your phone number at the kiosk, you can earn reward points for a free drink after 10 purchases. :) I love the variety of the menu, there are always new / seasonal drinks to try if you like to explore new options and ingredients. :) There are also some cute merchandise options such as water bottles, tote bags, and boba keychains! It can get pretty loud when it is busy or they are playing loud dance music. It's a very family friendly spot. Great for kids and adults alike. :) read more

I am a HUGE fan of boba tea, so I was extremely excited to try this place. I got the large original black milk tea with boba. I chose to get 70% sweet which was a good choice for this. It still had a good amount of sugar for 70%. You can choose how much ice, how sweet, and different kind of boba pearls to put in the drink. You can order on a machine or go to the front and order. I will definitely be back to try a different flavor! I love the atmosphere, they have games to play, and it is really pretty inside! read more

The place was spacious, with cafe style of interior and a red Eiffel Tower as a decoration that you can't miss! We ordered Brown sugar smoothie with creme brûlé plus boba! It was really really really good! It's foamy, soft not too sweat and very light! You'll never realize that it'll gone too soon, because you'll be too satisfied with the floating feeling while slurping the drinks! Lychee Oolong Sparkling Tea with rainbow jelly! This one also very good! Refreshing and shockingly fresh! The wait was a lil bit too long, around 15-20 minutes for 2 drinks. Maybe that's the trick so you'll order another drink because the sip was faster that the wait! read more

Gong Cha - Green Milk Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Ellicott City, Maryland

Boba, tea and ice cream! Pick one or pick them all, Gong Cha has you covered! I love the fact they have simple black tea. The black tea reminds me of a Thailand black tea I get when available at certain Asian grocery stores. It's hard to find here in the U.S. and isn't always in stock at the Asian grocery stores so I appreciate it at Gong Cha. My favored boba is the taro and coconut. The perfect blend of flavors rock my taste buds every time. No matter who makes the drink, the consistency is a job well done at Gong Cha! I do hope they expand their flavors and add Honey Dew! It's my go to flavor for boba in general. Until then, I'll be on the taro coconut blend and I'm not mad about it. read more

I stopped by this location and was received by a young lady- Marleen (though im not quite sure if that is her correct name). After ordering my drink, I asked her if I could please use the restroom, and I was shocked to be denied access to it, despite expressing my urgent need to use it. She was rude, dismissive, and disrespectful in tone. Basic courtesy and respect go a long way, and unfortunately, that was completely lacking here. Sadly, due to this horrible experience, I won't be returning to this location. read more

Ordering is pretty easy at one of the kiosk and my order was prepared quickly. I enjoyed my malty drink, but there was too much ice for my liking and I should have opted for less ice. read more

We love it here! We were here for the grand opening and again here today! Top notch customer service, the owner is extremely cool (Tiffany). Wish we were able to make the lunar new year celebration. Next year! read more

Easily picked up my drink with an online order. I ordered a passionfruit green tea with golden pearls (0% sugar), and I'm absolutely obsessed with the golden pearls. I always find myself having a hit or miss with Gongcha, but I honestly thought this one was pretty flavorful and had nice, chewy bubbles! read more

I got a lychee green tea. They didn't put any ice, even though I specified 70% ice, and the green tea itself was a bit overpowering and bitter. Also it was pretty empty in there but our order (2 drinks) took 12 minutes. read more

The first thing that caught my eye when I walked in was the decor! I am in love with the interior design of this Gong Cha. The black and red decorations and color combinations are so sleek. I really like that there is a screen to do a quick order. It saves a lot of time and makes the process really easy. There's also several seating areas for you to enjoy your dessert! read more

WARNING: DO NOT GO TO THIS GONG CHA LOCATION UNLESS YOU LIKE NASTY DRINKS. The boba drinks here dont taste good at all and doesn't have a strong flavor and tastes too much like milk and I didn't even order milk drinks. There are way better gong cha locations than this shitty crappy location, I went there last night and there were no other customers, only me. I tried my drinks when I got home and they tasted terrible and has no strong flavor and taste bland and watery and tasted way too much like milk and I didn't even order milk drinks and I've been to way better gong cha locations than this shitty crappy one. and I called the next day for a refund and they wrongfully refused, no wonder nobody goes to that location because they have terrible unfriendly uncaring customer service and terrible bland drinks. And lmao all they are doing is posting all these fake lying positive comments bots reviews with fake trashy photoshopped google images on each of the fake bot profiles on all these fake positive reviews, each and every one of these fake positive reviews that they have on here are all nothing but bots, they are not real reviews, they are nothing but bots that they posted. They post all these fake lying positive comments bots because nobody even goes there. And lmao the "owner" of the place has nothing but a fake photoshopped stock photo google image pic on there fake profile, when they post there fake reply back to the fake lying positive comments bots that they posted clearly. ​ read more

Inconsistent on the flavor, order additions, and the boba not cooked properly. When we order here, its always missing foam, not enough boba, or too sweet or just too bitter. Service is not good. read more
