    The shop
    Susan L.

    Came here on a Friday afternoon and got their Snowy Jasmine Tea- 5/5 . The line seems quite long but it goes fairly fast. Snowy Jasmine Tea-5/5; not too sweet and the original Jasmine Tea is the best of Molly Teas drink imo. Ambiance: 5/5- the store is like a high end boba store. It gives off the Van Cleef vibes except it's like giving pink boba Van Cleef vibes. Customer service- 5/5- always fast, polite, and they take cash & card. Overall, would comeback again! Their teas never disappoint!

    As a tea fanatic, I absolutely had to step in here to see what the buzz is about. Molly tea is an institution with lines for days and the prettiest floral aesthetic. I heard they really gained ground in Flushing and expanded from there, so I was confident I was in for a treat. It was a hot Saturday afternoon and the tea shop was probably as busy as it gets. It took about half an hour for our order to be fulfilled, which honestly wasn't so bad considering how big the crowd was. One thing though - it smelled absolutely disgusting and horrid inside, like a peculiar mix of sewer, sweat and puke combined. I'm not sure if there was an "incident" that particular day or if this location always smells this bad but it was rancid enough where I simply couldn't stand inside and opted to wait outside in the heat. The matcha tea I got was absolutely phenomenal though. The matcha foam was delicious and the proportion of the foam to the tea was perfect. The tea had a beautiful jasmine floral note that was a perfect background to the matcha. This is probably one of the best matchas I've had. Our drinks were packaged with care so we were able to carry them home on the train with no problem or spilling. They really gotta do something about the foul odor though....

    Great tea but long wait!!! Personally, I think that the milk teas kinda taste like perfume.The milk and tea have a perfect blend. The tea is very rich compared to other boba brands. I didn't like that they have a store full of staff but I had to wait 30 mins for two drinks. If you could order ahead on hungry panda or other apps, please do so! Also they didn't give me a boba straw for my order of Tapioca. By the time I realized I was already out and about

    After having jumped on the Hey Tea hype train, I needed to try out Molly Tea to see how they compare. I think what differentiates Molly Tea from many other bubble tea places is their use of real tea and the aroma is very apparent from the onset. I had the Snowy Jasmine and it was a unique drink. The service was really nice, the place was clean, and it was a pleasant experience.

    Saw a pink cup and had to check it out. Ordered the Jasmine whipped cream with pecan and oolong tea. It was good but one of the pricer bubble tea shops on 8th Ave. I never order whip cream but it was supposedly jasmine flavored which I didn't appreciate. The tea itself was good though. Was the price justified? Eh I just need to walk half a block and pay half the price for something similar.

    Come at me--Molly Tea is the undisputed champion of all the boba/ tea shops in NYC. Their aromatic, premium tea is pure bliss--totally worth the hype. I was thrilled to try their NEW floral brewed tea series, and every drink was a perfect match--right on the sweet spot! The pistachio cheese foam was a winner for me. I got a free scented sachet -- they're doing a promotion to give away free scented sachet or shopping bag if you buy two drinks. *Pistachio Jasmine Coco $7.99 ** *Pistachio White Champaca $7.99 ** At my first glance, I already knew I would LOVE these drinks -- LOOK AT THAT PISTACHIO CHEESE FOAM!! Perfectly creamy, nutty and topped with crushed pistachio, just like pistachio cheesecake. It is a double pistachio experience with their signature fragrant tea. *Premium Iced Tea $4.59 *Gardenia Iced Tea $4.59 * The gardenia ice tea was a surprise hit! So aromatic, minty and refreshing. I've never had tea like this before

    I love smelling jasmine and teas when you first walk in. The store is brightly lit and separated into ordering and pick up. The drinks were good. The pistachio jasmine coco was refreshing with a yummy pistachio cream and nice jasmine tea. Mango smoothie was also light, very little mango taste. Despite the drinks being good, I don't think it was worth the 35+ minute wait. We ordered 2 drinks and we saw people who came after us leave. They seem to prioritize their mobile orders more than the in-person orders.

    I love the jasmine tea flavor and this might be my new favorite tea shop, but this place is always so busy with online orders. The last two times I've come in person, it took 20-30 min to receive my drink. Would probably save more time to order ahead. They aren't taking orders through the Molly tea app at this point so you have to go thru a third party food app.

    Every time we walk by Molly Tea, there is always a line. We decided to finally give this a try and let me say that the wait is long. The interior is super cute with the visually striking pink though, so it made the waiting a little bit amusing. We ordered the Premium Jasmine Milk Tea and the Mango Jasmine Shake. We actually timed how long it took for us to get our drinks. It took about 15 minutes for two drinks, but I can see why due to the store's popularity and people order 4-5 drinks each. While the drinks were good, the Jasmine flavor in the milk tea was excellent. It was super floral and rich. I just wished it didn't take so long to get the drinks. Will definitely visit when the popularity dies down.

    My current favorite milk tea spot! I frequent their Flushing location often and was super ecstatic that they opened one in Brooklyn too! Their bright pink bag and cups truly makes a statement! I usually find the ordering line not too long but waiting for the drinks was the longer part - it's still not bad. Your order number is on the digital board and you'll know when your drink is being prepared or ready. My favorite drink here is the Iced Premium Jasmine Milk Tea. It's sooo fragrant and aromatic. I usually get 30% sugar and it's perfect for me. This is the only drink that my husband and I do not share a cup and that says a lot about how good a cup of Molly is! For those who didn't realize yet, Molly is literally how you say, "jasmine" in mandarin. My husband pointed it out to me, and it totally make sense! I guess this is a way that my husband is trying to tell me that he is a bigger fan of Molly Tea than I am! Molly Tea seems to have a lot of promotions going on like free gifts during holidays so be sure to follow them on social media for the details!

    I am excited about Molly Tea's new location on 8th Ave as I no longer need to venture all the way to Flushing anymore. Hopefully they open more closer because the lines are always long here no matter what. Even on a snowy winter day, there was a line here. It took me 5 minutes to place my order and then another 20 minutes for my drink to be ready for pick up. I got the Osmanthus Milk Tea ($6.79), where they suggest adjusted sugar to 70%. The drink is super floral and refreshing and that's what makes Molly Tea so good. Also, I love their cups, straws, bags and all the aesthetics. It's cute and practical. Can't go wrong with the drinks here, but prepare for the wait. You could order for pick up ahead via Fantuan and avoid the wait too.

    I'll admit that I had none to low expectations before I went to Molly Tea. I'd seen their cute pink bags everywhere, but the reviews I heard about the drinks weren't exactly great. Jasmine tea is not usually my go to, so I was not super excited to try this spot either. Not by choice, I finally had the chance to try one of their drinks and I played it safe with the Premium Jasmine Super Matcha. It was good, better than I expected, smooth and pleasant. The drink was nothing special, I'd be okay with a Matcha latte from a coffee shop instead and tea from elsewhere. Overall, Molly Tea isn't bad, but it's not a spot I'd go out of my way for, especially with at least three better options nearby. Cute bags, though.

    Jasmine milk tea with new years cup
    Alan T.

    Came here when they were giving out the new years cup and got the jasmine milk tea. The lined move fast - at least to pay. And that was because everyone else was waiting for their drink! They seem to call out numbers in batches rather than calling them out one by one whenever it's ready. I think that's because actually waiting for your drink takes a while and people wander off to do something else. That also means that once their drink is ready, they aren't back yet and that ends up holding up the queue for everyone else (the display screen only shows a certain amount of numbers). I do think that's a fixable issue though. Just expand the amount of numbers on the display screen! Oh yah - tasty drink and enjoyed the tea flavor!

I signed up for the…read moreclass before I got to NY and was able to work it into my busy schedule of being a cool aunt. My brother and I walked around the Greenpoint area and then he had to go pick up his kiddo from camp, so I explored the area then put Kettl into google maps thinking I was coming early for class to avoid the rain. I accidentally went to the wrong location and then it started pouring. The staff told me the other location was 10 minutes away by foot, so I hauled myself to it in pouring rain. Luckily I wore workout clothes and tennis shoes that day, but my raincoat was water resistant, not waterproof, so I got pretty soaked. I still arrived a few minutes early, and the staff let me take some napkins to dry myself off. The class was at the bar in the back of this flagship location. It was set up for two, but I was the only person who showed. Jayanna led me through a very detailed class, provided handouts and a soba tea cookie along with water, and answered a ton of questions I had. As a daily matcha maker, I knew I had a lot to learn. She showed me how to care for the different tools used to make matcha. We made three preparations: sparkling matcha, shaken matcha, and matcha latte. We went through each with various steps and measurements. She demonstrated what to do and then I would make the drinks for both of us. It was a very fun experience and I learned a lot. I also got to shop after the class with a 15% discount, so I got myself a custom single cultivar matcha called okuju made exclusively for Kettl and especially for lattes, and then some individually wrapped fancy tea bags of matcha genmai and hojicha for Eric when he travels. The class had an hour and a half of instruction and I spent a half hour asking about products and shopping. It is a very nice space and I would love to try some of the unique drinks on the menu plus take more classes. If you love matcha and learning, I recommend taking a class here or at the LA location if you are on the west coast!

    Kettl is a bit overrated imo. I tried the shirakawa matcha latte, their highest grade for matcha…read morelattes. I thought it was decent, but I feel like it could've been stronger. It also wasn't creamy enough for a latte. The shiso white peach matcha soda was a fun experimental drink, but I feel like for a matcha drink, the matcha flavor was definitely dominated by the shiso and white peach flavors. It was really refreshing though for a hot summer day. Super adorable store! I want to try the matcha tasting one day!

You can get these drinks hot or iced. I had all of them iced! I also had one of the best iced matcha lattes ever from here with sweet coconut milk. WOW. From what I've seen, baked goods change daily and their drink menus change semi often as well, which is exciting!! Outside, there is some seating, lovely items and books for purchase and a window to order, as well as the menu items displayed on boards and items around the space. Inside is quite similar, but with more items for sale and more seating. The vibes are immaculate and this seems to be a space that's community centered and has an emphasis on carrying items made by local artists. Remember to bring cash to tip. I cannot wait until my next visit here!!
