Holding a Molly Tea cup in Flushing is almost as coveted as a Chanel bag - you gotta work for it and it's a foodie status! I've walked by this little tea shop at all hours of the day and there's always a line of at least 10 people outside. I've been recommended this place from many of my friends so I finally bit the bullet and lined up 5 minutes before store opened on a Sunday and there was already a line. Was it worth it? After 20 minutes from lining up to ordering and getting the drink, I would say my actual drink was pretty good! The Jasmine oat milk drink was rich with potent Jasmine tea flavor. Loved the orange slice inside. The oat milk was slightly sweet at 50% and no ice. Made well with a plastic cover inside the lid to prevent spills. I also tried the osmanthus fresh milk drink. Not as tea flavored but still fragrant. More milk taste than tea. Staff was efficient with ordering and packing. read more

Finally came here and decided to get the Premium Jasmine Milk Tea, since that's one of the most popular drinks and got the white boba, no ice, and 30% sugar rather than my usual 0% sugar only because they recommend 70% sugar. At first, I was like oh no, is my drink not going to taste right without doing their recommendation, but my drink was actually sweet, even though they say it's not very sweet if you don't do 70%. I should have just done by 0%, but anyways, I don't get the hype at all. The tea was very aromatic, but that's it. Is it the cream that's worth the squeeze or am I missing something? Because now I am thinking should I go back to get the cream version? The white boba wasn't as good as the brown version at other establishment and I just don't get why anyone would wait more than 30 minutes for their drinks. Please someone tell me what is the hype here? You're basically paying 10 dollars here for the packaging and that's it. That's the other thing, a bit crazy with over packaging - I got a plastic lid and I didn't realize they also covered it with a plastic film underneath it. Come on now, less about aesthetics focus more on how to reduce single plastic use here. read more

The staffs were friendly. There is always a line for Molly Tea, always busy. It is in competition with the rest of the block for boba drinks. Drinks are hot or cold. Ordered premium jasmine milk tea. The cup is 75% filled and they have unique straws for the drink. Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Ambience: 4/5 read more

Believe the hype --BEST TEA EVER! I totally get why there's always a line here because the tea is so fragrant and refreshing. We came on a Saturday afternoon and ended up waiting half an hour to get our drinks. If you have WeChat, you can order ahead to save some time. I got the Premium Jasmine Oat Milk Tea ($6.79) with 30% sweetness and light ice, which was perfect! Aside from how yummy the drink is, I thought their straws and cups were also so unique and create with so much thought in mind. Atop of that, the insulated bag that you get with your drink is so cute and useful as well! If I lived closer to here, I would be here almost everyday. Looking forward to them expanding until the next time I am in Flusbing again for Molly Tea. read more

it's simple, just really good jasmine tea. heavy on the flavor so if you're not a fan of jasmine you're not going to like it (duh) the drinks: their standard is the premium jasmine, comes with whole milk. i personally liked it but wasn't blown away to the point i would come back and order again (unlike my experience at hey tea) the space: take out only the service: fast honestly if you're interested you should def try it! it wasn't as long of a wait as i expected read more

Drink: The jasmine tea here is the best. It's fragrant and strong on the tea flavor. I've tried a few different drinks here, but my favorite is still the premium jasmine tea. This is now my favorite tea shop in New York City. It's definitely worth the long lines and wait. Sugar and ice levels are adjustable. The tea is so fragrant that even 0% sugar tastes good. Service: Service is okay. At any time of the day, there is always a line and a crowd in front of this place. They have a screen inside of the shop that lists all order numbers being prepared and all order numbers that are ready for pick. The store really needs to figure out a better system for the pick up because the space is small and very chaotic in there. Many customers cut the line to pick up their orders while everyone else is patiently standing in line waiting. The staff are so busy behind the counter that they probably don't notice when someone skips the line, but this is something that the staff needs to figure out. Every time I've been here there are always one to two people who cut the line and get their order first even though there is an entire line of people who have been waiting behind them. Ambiance: The tea shop itself is very small and there's no seating. You have to take your tea and leave immediately because it's so crowded and chaotic there. Overall, I would highly recommend this tea shop! read more

Since this place had been popular, my friend and I happened to visit on a day when there wasn't a long line. The checkout process was quick, but there was a bit of a wait because of the large number of orders. You have to wait outside, as the bubble tea shop is quite small. I ordered the Premium Jasmine Milk Tea, and my friend had the Osmanthus Milk Tea. The drinks tasted average to us. They didn't quite live up to the hype. However, we did love the cup designs and their packaging. Maybe next time I'll try different drinks, and that might change my opinion. read more

Man did I fall for the hype waiting outside in the freezing NYC winter for a darn drink. I don't even have Instagram for this nonsense. Yes the tea is high quality and good but not that good. Let's get real, you're paying for the experience, the smells and sights, to hear them chant in unison, to get your drink in a cute pink cup and bag and sip out of a thin straw to feel bougie. I almost wanted the bag as a value add but I knew I would scarf down the drink and it would just be trash three minutes later so why bother? Maybe I just drink too fast so I didn't feel bougie for long enough to feel it's worth it. I'd just rather pay less for better drinks in larger quantities and less fuss literally steps from this place. read more

Soooooo good. I wish there were more locations. If I could go to Molly Tea every day and get the Snowy Jasmine, I would. The tea is flavorful, but not too sweet. The whip on top is the best thing ever and it has these little chocolatey crunchies on top. It's giving a Starbucks frappe moment but waaaaaaay better. The storefront is pretty small, but they run an efficient operation. You go up to order and can wait outside the shop. There are workers who will announce on a speaker which orders are ready! read more

Really good milk tea! The line was long but it was orderly. Waited about 30 minutes to order and took about 15 minutes for drinks to be made. Highly recommended trying the white champaca oolong milk tea and their premium jasmine milk tea. The teas are fragrant and not too sweet. The drink cups and insulated to go bags are really cute! There is no where to sit in the shop. It's mainly a grab and go place. read more

Molly Tea was intimidatingly busy and crowded, but I was personally impressed by how fast they went through people and how I didn't actually really need to queue up to order (the wait was mostly for your drinks, which also came out fast). Their operation seems well run. It's a busy storefront with no seating (but it's Flushing, so many indoor malls to enjoy your drink, which is what my friend and I did). I ordered the gardenia milk tea and my friend ordered the champaca one (I think that's the name). We each liked the one we ordered better, so I suppose it's a matter of taste, but I really liked the quality of tea, the unique flavors on the menu that are different from many other bubble tea/milk tea spots, and definitely would come here again. I already recommended this place to my brother next time he's in Flushing and in the mood for a milk tea. read more

This milk tea is kinda crazy, wow. It's the best milk tea I've had in New York City. I had the Premium Jasmine Milk Tea, and it was so creamy and light, with the perfect amount of tea flavoring. They are a small store that usually has lines, but the line goes quite fast. I definitely recommend a try if you're in the area! read more

This place was on my radar for a while due to the pretty pink bags and cups I've seen on social media. Got the signature Jasmine milk tea with their recommended sugar and ice level. The drinks came super fast and was packed extremely nicely. The straws were like three coffee stirrers together, maybe to aerate the tea as you drink it. The tea was EXTREMELY fragrant with a strong jasmine flavor. The tea flavor was also strong and it was a bit creamy but could be creamier. I would definitely come again to try their other floral milk teas. read more

Ordered: Snowy Jasmine (~$8): green tea, fresh milk, Jasmine whipped cream Aya's take: It's been a WHILE since I've been impressed by a milk tea, and now we can thank Molly Tea for that. Their focus (aside from their bright & beautiful aesthetic) is on Jasmine aromas, fresh flowers, and elevated Chinese tea. The milk tea is super light, aromatic, and creamy and you get those same flavors in the Jasmine whipped cream too, just a bit thicker consistency. Whoever came up with Jasmine whipped cream is genius because it was lightly sweet, fluffy, and floral. The place itself is small so it got a bit chaotic inside; they can do a lot better with the line logistics but the service was surprisingly quick despite how busy they were. It's absolutely worth a try! read more

Molly Tea - Snowy Jasmine (~$8) - Bubble Tea Near Me - Flushing, New York

Drinks here are actually decent when they make it right- it's usually a hit or miss. If you order later in the night or when there's a special going on- 9/10 you'll get a bland or mostly milky tea. Unfortunately my biggest gripe is how they ignore you when you're picking up your order if you're not Chinese. This happens to me often and it's very frustrating. A lot of times they will disperse or turn their backs for long periods of time. One time I was waiting before another Asian person came to pick up their order and they tended to them and ignored me. This is unacceptable and makes me not want to come here and wait 30+ mins for this trash service to not be seen read more

Super popular milk tea place in flushing. I always see them with a line out the door so I had to try for myself. Got the #1 recommended drink- premium jasmine milk tea with white bubbles and topped with whipped cream and pecan bits. They only have 1 size. Came out to be around $11. The toppings really do add up. 70% sugar is just right for someone who doesn't like their drinks too sweet like me. While the tea tasted good, I wouldn't say it's mind blowing or the best bubble tea that I've ever had. Although the line moved fast, the wait was quite long to actually get the drink. This is a very small hole in the wall place, so don't expect to lounge here (there's only enough space to stand to place your order). Very smart branding and marketing. Feels like you're drinking something very luxurious! read more

Molly Tea is the best jasmine milk tea I've ever had! When you walk into the shop, you are immediately hit by the scent of jasmine. For people who love floral flavors this place is heaven. The line may seem long but it moves pretty fast. They don't do boba here so the experience is really focused on the tea itself. I love the tiny straws they give you to really savor the tea slowly. I also liked how they have oat milk as an option. Don't get the snowy versions unless you just want whipped cream because that's all it is. Jasmine Oat Milk Tea: 5/5 would come back and get just this Snowy Gardenia: 3/5 didn't enjoy the flavor as much as the Jasmine and the "snowy" part is literally just whipped cream. read more

Heads up! Price increase!!! Based on the review dates, it appears that the prices just jumped 20 cents. That being said, I thought that I would try this place as I needed to bring a treat to a meeting. There is definitely a following and I can see why. The packaging stands out with the pink color bag and cup designs. Quality is part of their story as they actually seal the drink before putting the lid on so you won't spill. Very much appreciated that they think about the consumer experience in their service. The drinks are flavorful- I would describe it as a light delight. I ordered their recommendation of 70% sugar level and less ice. There was still ice left after I finished the drink. I think their cup size holds 14-16 ounces. I'm usually not a jasmine tea person but the green tea was good and not overpowering. So it's worth a try and decide for yourself. It definitely won't be the worst drink you'll ever have but it will be a good and satisfying consumer experience even with the long lines. The line goes outside partially because the store space is not large. You're asked to wait outside so other customers can enter and put in their orders. You can watch your order progress because they have an order tracking system that lets you know that they're working on it and you'll know when it is ready. read more

Sometimes I truly do not understand how New Yorkers are willing to queue for anything. Every time l've passed by this place since it opened a few months ago, even during weekdays during the day, there's always been a long queue of people waiting to order and a large crowd mingling around the entrance waiting for their orders, and I keep thinking, surely it can't be *that* good (even after months?) Well, I finally decided to give it a try recently when I happened to come by after lunch and saw that the queue wasn't too long (read: only ~10 people). | decided to order the premium jasmine milk tea (one of the "must try!"s) with medium sugar and half ice (they recommend 70% sugar). All of the "bobaristas" in the back seem to be quite busy and working hard to churn out drink after drink (I did have a suspicion at one time that maybe they were being deliberately slow so that a queue for form, and then there would be more hype), and I ultimately got my drink ~10-15 minutes later. And,, it was quite disappointing? I mean, it was fine - a very solid cup of jasmine milk tea, a little bit too sweet, even at 50% sugar, but obviously that can be adjusted. But, I feel like I could have gotten the same beverage at nearly every bubble tea shop on that block, if not the entire downtown Flushing neighbourhood (and assuredly there are Quite A Few of those around). But why are people queuing and paying over $7-8 for this type of generic drink? Yeah this has just been a puzzling experience all-around, I feel like I must be missing something hahaha. Did I order the wrong thing? (I don't think so, my friends' drinks seemed equally ordinary as mine). Maybe social-media hype??? IDK read more

OBSESSED! If I can give this tea more than 5 starts I would! I heard of a new tea place coming. I saw the line out the door every time I would drive down Prince. I was like, "WTH is the hype about?" But I get it! Molly's is different. You walk in to this tiny tea spot, but it's giving opulence. I don't know if it's the pretty pink bags. The overpriced candles that line the wall, or the pretty colored cups the drinks come in. I don't care what it is because the tea is just that good. So far I've had the classic Jasmine milk and the Gardenia milk. I went with the recommendation of 70% sugar and less ice which if you know me, you know that I don't like a sweet drink at all, but the 70% doesn't make it that sweet. It's refreshing, floral, light and sooo delicious. I think I like the Jasmine best so far by but I'm making it a mission to try all the drink on the menu. Service is quick and that line goes fast. Order numbers are displayed on a screen over the counter and you can see what's being prepared and what's ready. Order numbers are also called out. It will get crowded but again it's soooo worth it. read more

A super popular boba store in a place with so many great choices is always a great sign! there was a big crowd of people when i went in the middle of the day and a large crowd even when i walked by again later before dinner so make sure you have some time to spare before coming here. I saw a lot of reviews mentioning a 20 minute wait so when i went there and saw all the crowd had already ordered and no one in front of me for the line, i thought i got lucky but actually it still took 20-30 minutes because the ordering part is the fastest lol. very small crowded store but cute designs and cute reward systems offers i see being displayed on the wall. workers were friendly and efficient. If you like tapioca pearls, this is not the place. The only boba they have is crystal boba. i am glad the worker told me this before i added boba into my drink since personally i am not a fan of crystal boba. interesting straw, 3 extremely tiny straws stuck together, it works lol Premium Jasmine milk tea - very fragrant, strong, balanced and not perfumey or astringest tasting jasmine flavor in every single sip! i actually dont like jasmine tea usually but panic ordered when i got to the front of the line faster than expected. not milky or watery, perfectly balanced. 4.25/5 read more

Came for the hype and left feeling satisfied!! The line to order isn't that long (although it is very packed once you go inside) but to pick up is PRETTY long.. You will have to be on watch to see your number pop up on the screen to pick up. The premium jasmine milk tea is SO worth. It is recommended 70% sugar but personally I thought it was still sweet so I'm going to try to get 50% next time. Even until the last sip the jasmine tea flavor was still very strong, which I really liked. They do not have the typical tapioca bubbles which was the most disappointing part b/c their white bubbles are a different texture. read more

I mean the packaging is nice. The teas are also pretty good ; nice jasmine flavor. We ordered their premium jasmine milk tea and their white champaca milk tea- and there was a slight difference in flavor profiles. I think the premium jasmine milk tea was better than the champaca one. Hype is real? But maybe I'm just immune to hypes now... its jasmine bubble tea done well. They do have their ticketing system down pat with steady flow of intake and drink pickup. Will I come again? Only if I were really craving jasmine milk tea because for I can make my own at home...

Molly Tea - premium jasmine milk tea & what champaca milk tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Flushing, New York

Molly Tea is located right on Prince Street in Flushing, NY. Their hours are Monday to Sunday 11am - 9:30pm. I arrived on Saturday morning about 5 minutes before 11am and there was already a line; a short line. Exactly at 11am, they took their first order. Every few minutes, all the staff in unison would warmly welcome the customers. Molly Tea's main product lines are the Fresh Milk Tea Series, Snowy Whipped Series, and Fresh Oat Milk Tea Series. In 10 minutes, I ordered the Premium Jasmine Milk Tea and my husband ordered the White Champaca Milk Tea. We both got their recommended 70% sugar and less ice. Both drinks were $6.79 (not including tax). The drinks only come in one size. After ordering, we waited inside for about 15 minutes for our order number to be called. They asked if we were drinking right away or later. I said later and they put the drinks in a tray in a pink bag. It is a little small inside Molly Tea and can feel cramped if there are many people ordering and waiting for their drink. When we took our first sips, we thought to ourselves WOW! The Premium Jasmine Milk Tea had really good flavor and the drink was fresh, pure, and not overly sweet. My husband really enjoyed his White Champaca Milk Tea as well. We never had White Champaca and it had an elegant aroma. Their teas are definitely worth every penny. I can't wait to come back to get Molly Tea again! I always enjoy Jasmine Tea, but Molly Tea just bought Jasmine Tea to a whole another level. You can also tell that Molly Tea really cares about their packaging. If you order a drink from the Snowy Whipped Series that has whipped cream, they will put it in an insulated bag to keep it cool. Also, the cups had a matte feel to them. read more
