I love this place and I am soooo happy that they are in Arlington! It has wifi and a handful of tables but its really geared towards getting you in and out with a delicious hot or cold beverage in your hand :) my one tip is to ask for Half the sugar if you are ordering milk tea because it is suuuuper sweet! read more

I don't know if this place really deserves 5 stars, but I have a boba addiction, and quite frankly this place is my supplier so it gets 5 stars. This Kung Fu Tea is nestled amongst a street of restaurants directly across from the Clarendon Metro. It is in a great walkable location, and is open until 10 PM which is great if you're thirsty late at night. The interior is really nice with huge TVs displaying menus of how choosing your tea, sweetness level, and toppings work which was especially helpful the first time I went to the restaurant. The menu is so full of options from teas, punches, slushes, and yogurt combos and honestly everything I've tried so far has been good! Additionally, not only does this location have tea, but they also have Poke bowls. I appreciate the great variety that this store offers. Only con is that the tea can be quite pricey. A large tea including tip and toppings can run you as much as $7 which to me is kind of ludicrous. read more

One of our favorite spots to get Bubble tea. Have tried the Taro milk tea, kung fu tea, and thai milk tea all with bubbles and all have been fantastic. Will be continuously coming back read more

Dropped by after having dinner in the area. For a sudden boba craving, this place would do the trick, but I would make the trek further into Fairfax County for better bubble tea options. I got the Oolong Milk Tea with Boba. The drink was a little too milky and plain for my tastes - perhaps I shouldn't have lowered the sugar level to 70%. The boba itself was nicely sweetened, which was pretty good, though it was a bit stickier and harder in texture than I prefer. In all I would say this place is around par for your average Kung Fu Tea. The quality control could probably be a bit better, but it's a decent boba option. read more

Kung Fu Tea - Oolong Milk Tea with Boba - Bubble Tea Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

For the person who gave this a two-star, shame on you! It's a soft opening for a reason and they are still working out kinks. Chill out. I came here with no cash on hand, but we didn't fret since going to an ATM to get cash is not a big deal if you are a true boba lover!! I was so excited to come here on day four of opening since it was a 15 minute walk from work, so I brought my coworker with me. We had a nice chat with the owner and talking about the difficulties it was to work with the county laws and getting the place set up, which took longer than expected. Opening up a new business is hard enough without having to deal with difficult customers, so please come here with an open mind. That's the point of a soft opening is to work out all these kinks and issues, so yes for now, it's CASH only so come ready. I'll be doing that tomorrow until the CC machine is ready. In the end, I'm just happy to walk away with boba in hand and a close KFT to work. So yay, welcome to Arlington!! Please stay as long as you like! read more

Oh Kung fu tea how you fuel my bubble tea addiction. I'm already a kung fu tea addict but was incredibly excited to hear a shop was opening up in Clarendon. No really, I literally jumped for joy. If you haven't had Kung Fu tea now it's milk tea but extremely customizable. I love this because friends with dietary restrictions (lactose intolerant or keto) can easily modify their orders and still enjoy the delicious taste that is bubble tea. This kung fu tea has all the flavors as other locations, and seemed to have a few more I haven't seen at some other locations. Initially they were having some opening issues with the credit card reader, but it seems to be resolved now. I'm sure to become a frequent visitor and hope this location sticks around! read more

I havent found another tea place I like as much as Kung Fu Tea. This was my go to place when i lived in Ballston. Now I can only visit when I take my dog to the vet down the street. Its a bit of a trek from Alexandria. The flavors are really good. I appreciate that they have tea and more sweeter punches for when I am not in the mood for tea. I recommend the Lychee Tea Punch! read more

I'm originally from LA and we have some great boba places so my standards are pretty high. This place does It right! Got a matcha milk tea. Boba is fresh and cooked to perfection. Matcha is perfectly sweet in my opinion. A little on the pricey side ($5) for a medium , but will definitely be returning whenever I get that next boba craving! read more

I am a big fan of Kung Fu Tea, having said this, this franchise store in Clarendon is the worst. Of the 3 times we have been, they have been slow, even when we are the only customers. Ok, so if they are slow at least make the tea as ordered? Nope they cant and when it is their mistake they argue about it and lie and try to say it was the correct order. Point, Lychee Black Tea uses black tea so it should be brown not pale yellow. The server/cashier was rude the whole time as well. She needs to take a class in customer service. This location of Kung Fu Tea is a big fail. Go to Eden, Tysons or Annandale stores instead!! read more

Lots of great tea options... the boba were super yummy and perfect texture!!! You can choose from a lot of different teas and slushes... Milk bases and lactose free milks. They have several levels of sweetness and ice amounts to specify when ordering. The prices are very reasonable and the staff was super friendly. We will definitely stop in again next time we are in the Clarendon area! read more

Kung fu tea is incredible! I ordered the Thai milk tea without bubbles and finished it in about half the time i expected to because it was so delicious. You can also tell that they have a loyal following, as most of the people there with us were obviously repeat customers. The interior was fun and bright, and they had pictures of customers on the wall that kept our attention while waiting for our drinks. The staff was lovely and super helpful for first time customers, which made it much less intimidating to ask questions. The two downsides - my friend got a matcha drink with bubbles and although she loved the taste, she said they went a bit overboard with the bubbles. I suppose this is personal preference, but definitely something to watch out for. Second, it's a bit pricey, my drink cost $4 for a medium (which i would guess is about 16oz and also included ice). Overall you can definitely expect me back at Kung fu tea again! read more

Classic and predictable for decent bubble tea. The wow milk Cap is is good with Oreo. They are always The toppings are all predictably good It's great for a stable bubble tea stopover. One step Above the Starbucks of bubble tea Still maintains authenticity and passion for bubble tea and boba for sure. read more

This kft location used to be walking distance of my work office, so anytime I wanted a refreshing tea, or happened to stop by Whole Foods for groceries, I came here. Recently, they've added poke bowls to their offerings, which I believe is unique to all of the other kft in the area. Even though kft isn't my favorite bubble tea place, it's always a sure go-to. I love the oolong milk tea and green milk tea. read more

Happiness in a cup! Bubble tea is a trend I can totally get on board with! Sweet tea with little drops of goodness on the bottom! I have to say, this location has great staff. They were extremely accommodating, and friendly. It was 9:59pm and they still let me in the door! (They close at 10pm). Can't go wrong with this spot. read more

Kung Fu Tea - Oolong bubble tea! - Bubble Tea Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

My hubby ordered the lychee with black tea and it was ok. overall i feel the tea flavor is not as strong as Moge Tee, but as many people said, there are not a lot of bubble tea options in Clarendon/Courthouse area so this place is great. It is just not my personal favorite. The decor was cute in this place. read more

I want to give this location a 5 so badly but the service is always so slow. I am a boba junkie and Kung Fu Tea always gets it right. My go to is the Lychee Punch and it has bits of lychee floating in it, it's so refreshing! The atmosphere of this shop is really nice, brand new and always clean. The staff is super friendly, they just take forever. For how busy it always is you would think they might pick up the pace on the orders. Use the app to get discounts! read more

My all time favorite is the ginger milk tea. I get it with the bubbles which are not soggy at all like other bubble tea places. The wait time is less than 10 minutes. Staff is very friendly and helpful. read more

Kung Fu Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

It's my ritual to stop by here if I show homes in North Arlington. Every KFT location is consistent in their products, I feel. I always get two specific teas and would highly recommend them if you're unsure of what to get: 1) passion fruit green tea - 50% sweet, light ice, bubbles 2) kung fu tea (black milk tea) - 50% sweet, light ice, bubbles, pudding, grass jelly #1 is very refreshing because it's real tea (no milk) on ice -- get a large! #2 is a perfect dessert drink, but very filling, so get a medium (or large if you can be gluttonous like me). Teas take about 5-10 minutes to receive. Prices are pretty steep once you add everything, so expect to pay about $4-5 each. It's a weekly thing for me, but totally more worth it than a Starbucks drink. read more

Oh my goodness! As a boba lover & enthusiast, Kung Fu Tea is such a solid boba spot. Their boba is always spot on- so soft and chewy and their drinks are just truly flavorful and amazing! My favorite is the Oolong Milk Tea, Taro Slush and Mango Slush! They are reasonably priced and has very friendly service! Boba is the perfect dessert after eating lunch & KFT just hits the spot! They also are on Postmates if you are a bit far away from the nearest Kung Fu Tea like me! read more

Used to be great, my go-to spot for bubble tea. I used to be so loyal to them that I have a black-belt status on the app (the highest loyalty status). But now every time I go or order, they ALWAYS get my order wrong. Something is always wrong: either I get the wrong drink flavour, or the wrong topping or no toppings at all (which sucks, given that I have to pay extra for toppings). Literally the past five times I've gone, I've been given the wrong order. I'm totally happy to substitute my order or toppings with something else if what I've ordered is out of stock or for any other reason, but to not even be informed of that and be given something I don't want is kind of unprofessional. It's really disappointing. read more

Kung Fu Tea is the most common chain in the DMV area from my experience, and that's because it's good. You have a large variety of choices. Good flavors and none that are too weird. Quick and consistent drinks as well. And the layouts of most locations are simple but not plain. I've been to this location once after visiting Hanabi Ramen close by, and it matched my typical expectations for Kung Fu Tea. The space wasn't made as much as a "chill spot" as some other KFT, but the design of the place was more appealing to me personally. All in all, this place gave me what I needed, and did it well. Next time I go to Hanabi, I will come here afterwards again. read more

Fantastic boba tea here and super friendly staff. Prices are great too. Get the melon green tea milk tea with boba. read more

Kung Fu Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

I am a big fan of Kung Fu Tea and have been to my fair share of locations all over the country. I really like this one especially for its convenience in location but also for its service. First off, this KFT has the typical menu you'd find at a KFT but also some new items. For those that are not familiar with KFT, they offer a wide array of options for milk teas. My favorites are the taro green milk tea and the peach oolong tea. They also have the typical thai tea and fruit slushies. They also have lactose free options and some hot drinks which are nice for the colder months. They give you the option to have no ice or light ice, as well as less sugar. Especially when it's cold outside, I just ask for no ice. The service at this location is great! They are very friendly and helpful when you cannot decide on what you want. They also are very quick with getting you your drinks. They have tables inside which are perfect for studying or meeting up with friends or lounging after eating too much at a nearby restaurant. I often went here to study and the staff was very nice about letting me stay for a long time. The location is really great too. It is right by the Clarendon metro stop and is very convenient. You can also find food spots nearby. All in all, I am a frequent visitor of this KFT spot and you should be too! read more

Having a bubble tea place in Clarendon has been great and I always enjoy their tea flavors, but I did have a strange customer service experience at my most recent visit to this location that soured things a bit. As I was picking up my order and heading out the door, I overheard one staff member complaining about a customer's order to another staff member and referring to said customer as "bitch". Yikes, kind of hesitant to go back after that. read more

Taro milk tea, no ice, 30% sugar, mango popping bubbles. Yum! Customer service was great, and really clean. They only have 2 sizes tho, when I get bubble tea in in other places like nyc they have more size options. read more

I absolutely love that I've discovered Kung Fu Tea, I never want to be without it! I've visited their locations in Arlington, Falls Church and in Clarendon (which is essentially Arlington too), and have to say that the service and quality of beverages is consistent at all of the locations I've been to so far. I love the Lychee Punch & my other go to would be the Mango Slush. There are so many toppings and add-ins that you can do to make your drink to order. Price is decent for what you're getting, the stores are always clean, and there is ample seating and WiFi. Such a cute little hip place for millennials to hang out and get some work done. I love that they have a reward program here, so that you get rewarded with perks on your visits! read more

This Kung Fu Tea is another great addition to the Clarendon area. Service is quick and no-frills, and they have bright open seating. They have the classic Kung Fu Tea menu including many options for fruit juice, tea, milk, slushie options, and plenty of different fillings and toppings available. I usually go for the classic taro milk tea, and I Iike that they allow you request less sugar or no ice. read more

Love KFT, this is definitely a welcome addition to Clarendon. This one seemed a bit slow, and the space is a little awkward inside, but the teas are just as good as anywhere. Favorites are the taro smoothie and the cookies and cream milk tea. Always order half or less sugar, and make sure to get boba - KFT has the best boba of any shop out there. read more

I love Kung Fu Tea and I'm so glad they opened up one in clarendon. It's a very cute space with some seating where you can chill and drink tea with your friends, although not as big as one in seven corners but very cozy. Ordering is quick and fast, and getting your drink is also pretty fast. So far, nothing bad to say! Def sign up for the app to keep track so you can get rewards! read more

I love it. Coconut milk tea is the best, especially warm. Service is also good, you can pay with their app, so that makes everything easier. read more

I have been looking for a place that specializes in bubble tea and I found Kung Fu Tea as I was walking in the heat. The drinks were so refreshing and there were so many different flavors to choose from. My boyfriend tried the honey lemonade and it was amazing. You could really taste the honey, however the drink wasn't too sweet, which is great. I got the strawberry lemonade green tea bubble tea and I was a little disappointed because it was too sweet and you couldn't really taste the green tea. The bubble on the tea are the best that I've ever had. The place was very clean, artistic, and minimalist. The staff were very friendly. I am definitely going back to Kung Fu Tea and ask for recommendations that aren't too sweet and I am very picky when it comes to things being too sweet. read more

I think I am going to settle on a 3 Star rating. After 3 4 or visits I think I know what I am dealing with. My most recent visit I had a large Honey Oolong Milk Tea with Boba, Regular Ice and Little Sweet. I always get mixed up between Little 30% and Less 70% sweetness. My drink was aight. I'll take the blame for that. There are a lot of options so it's up to me to get a satisfactory combo. read more
