    This molly tea location is so good! I love the flow of the store and I'm glad there is extra seating outside/in the plaza. I tried the new Premium Grape Jasmine Milk tea, which was very fragrant. It almost tastes like a grape flavored hi-chew. I wouldn't get it again but my go-to is always the Premium Jasmine Milk Tea. Perfectly floral and fragrant but there are times where it is too milky. I was able to order online and there wasn't a long wait for 9pm on a Saturday. Staff were quick to grab the order as soon as I arrived!

    Completely unnecessary plastic piece included with every drink

    Very dystopian place. Harsh lighting, and when I went there was what sounded like cheap AI generated music playing at full blast. You order from a computer screen and get assigned a number. If you forget your number, you have to talk to a robotic employee who throws an exception when trying to process that you're a human being with an order and not a number. All the employees are forced to wear face masks and seem extremely unhappy and robotic. The worst part of all is all the WASTE. My drink came in a huge thick heavy plastic cup with a plastic wrap on top AND an additional plastic cover on top of that. The plastic cover had a useless piece that immediately gets thrown away (or probably littered). This particular location also has tons of signs everywhere telling you what to do and how to order, constant beeping from the order system, etc. The cups say "New experience of Eastern Tea", is that the new experience they want to deliver? It makes me never want to visit the orient. That being said, the jasmine tea I ordered did taste quite good, even with all the microplastics.

    Surprisingly I have never tried Molly Tea even though they are quite the hype for the last 2-ish years. Lines and long wait times deter me, plus the Bay has so many similar if not identical options to try within close range. I finally decided to stop by the new Molly Tea on an early Friday afternoon. There was a small line of 5-6 people, so it wasn't too bad. They have 2 kiosks to order from. I wish that they were more consistent in providing descriptions for their menu items because it was hard to pick by just looking at images. I ended up ordering the premium jasmine matcha as it sounded like a safe choice and waited about ten minutes for my order to be ready. It was good- light and refreshing but also creamy. I usually stay away from the cheese additions in my drinks but this one worked well with the matcha powder. I would go lower in sweetness next time and maybe try a topping.

    *Came here during their soft opening* DRINKS: - Snowy Jasmine: strong, creamy, thin tea, good amount of pecans - Snowy Peach: peach is really strong here, my favorite - Jasmine Matcha: jasmine is strong, matcha is subtle but comes as an aftertaste Parking in back and around the plaza, definitely better than their other locations. Nice interior but small layout. More seating outdoors. Pecans give extra texture and nutty taste. Definitely like this location more for their jasmine flavor profile (it's stronger and creamier here)

    I'm so glad a Molly Tea opened up nearby! This location is smaller than the others but still very cute. There is less seating in the inside but plenty of outdoor seating. I ordered ahead on the app and got a Snowy Jasmine Milk Tea. It was ready when I arrived. The staff takes care to wait until you pick the drink to add the whipped creme topping. You can choose to get the candied pecan topping (highly recommended!) on top of the creme. Skip the insulated bag. I got them the first fee times but it's just additional plastic waste.

    Molly Tea has opened in the Rivermark Plaza, which is closer to me. Honestly, I prefer this location only because of the parking situation. The other locations have very limited parking, while this one is located in a shopping plaza that has lots of parking spots. However, just like the other Molly Teas, it's very small. There was no seating inside, but there is some limited seating outside. Wasn't a big deal for me, since I was taking my drink togo. Expect a wait as usual. I ordered their new drink, which was the Premium Jasmine Citrus. You get a free Molly Tea Fifa pin with the drink (while supplies last). The drink was refreshing and I ordered it with the recommended 70% sweetness, which was good!

    Champaca Matcha
    Jessica M.

    The place is nice and really cute. There is very little seating inside but there are some tables outside. Parking can be limited but I found a spot not too far away. The service was ok. I didn't like that some of the drinks don't have descriptions, especially since I didn't know what most of the stuff was. I ordered the Matcha Champaca which was pretty good. It tasted like a matcha latte, nothing special. The caffeine was very strong!

    Recently visited this new location in Rivermark Plaza. The staff members are very friendly, but the wait time can be a bit long, even when visiting at 3pm on a weekday. Parking can also be quite limited, especially on weekends. My ultimate favorite drink here is the premium jasmine milk tea, ordered with less ice and 30% sugar. It is excellent and has a beautiful, delicate hint of jasmine floral scent. We also tried the matcha milk tea with white boba, which was a solid and enjoyable choice. Glad to have a location nearby to our office.

    So happy there's a Molly tea in Santa Clara with lots of parking and cute outdoor siting area. I always get the white champaca with oat milk and it's so good! Friendly staff and quick service.

    Snowy Dancong

    My newest obsession! I'm so happy they opened a location SJ because it's definitely more convenient for me to drive to compared to their Cupertino/Sunnyvale locations. Tucked in the Rivermark plaza, this location is definitely smaller compared to the Cupertino/Sunnyvale locations. Despite the size, they are very efficient and I've always gotten my drinks within less than 10 minutes regardless of the crowds. Drinks here always hit! My favorite is their Snowy Dancong which is just the right amount of sweetness and they don't skimp on the foam. I've also ordered their White Champaca Matcha which was OK but the floral notes were too fragrant for my preference. Definitely recommend to anyone who enjoys floral flavors though. I've tried other drinks from the other locations but these were the two that I tried from this particular location.

    Molly tea is always busy so I was not surprised when I came and it was pact. Even when super busy, the workers are pretty organized and got the drinks out in a reasonable time, and they give out cute bags to hold the drinks and were giving out random prizes to people with their order to celebrate the World Cup (I got a cute magnet bottle opener). Jasmine MT is the most popular but I actually like the Oolong MT better just cause it is more sweet and flavorful while the Jasmine is more floral and light. Highly recommend trying it out if you love deep tea flavors! Overall would always be down to go back to Molly tea, I haven't been to a location I didn't like :)

    I love this new Molly Tea location! Finally one that's closer to North San Jose & Milpitas and the location is great with lots of parking, much better than the others. It's super clean and new inside, staff are nice and work super quick to get your drinks and the layout feels well done where even if it's packed, the flow of people coming in and out is well thought out. I haven't tried a drink on the menu I didn't like, but my favorites are the Snowy Jasmine, Jasmine Matcha, Pistachio Coconut, and Peach Oolong Milk Tea. Really addicted to their drinks because I just keep coming back for more and more. Can't recommend this spot enough!

    A new Molly Tea location located in the Rivermark Plaza that is closer to me. I love it. The parking is way better here than at their Sunnyvale location. Still a very popular place. The interior is simple with a few tables to sit at. Also a few outside as well. The service was quick and efficient to be able to quickly turn out the drink orders. Premium Jasmine Milk Tea: Freshly picked double-petal jasmine from Hengzhou is infused into high-mountain tea through a meticulous seven-step scenting process, allowing the fragrance to penetrate deep into the leaves. Blended with premium milk, the result is a sweet, delicate, and refreshing taste with a long-lasting floral aroma that lingers and returns to pure simplicity. Come support your local business.

    Small business with amazing drinks that is an absolute must try!…read more Their main menu has 3 different Asian-inspired drinks: the Pandan Dream, Orange Sunset, and Corn Cloud. I've had all 3 and love them all, but the Pandan Dream is my favorite. Easily the best pandan latte I've ever had. They currently operate as a pop-up but recently launched a Kickstarter to help open their future brick-and-mortar storefront on Berryessa. I had actually never backed a Kickstarter project before, but I'm proud to say Nha Cafe inspired my very first pledge! If you appreciate passionate local business owners and a handcrafted bevy with unique flavor profiles, definitely track down their next pop-up and consider supporting their Kickstarter campaign. :)

In order of favoritism (but tbh they're all great so can't go wrong) 1 corn cloud 2 pandan dream 3 orange sunset Went to the Sunnyvale popup just to get their drinks but they also host popups often as they don't have a physical storefront atm! Just follow their ig to see where their popups will be! Love love their drinks! The corn cloud needs to be in rotation forever n ever hahaha you could also preorder/order family styles from them to pickup and have drink prep for the week or as long as they last ya lol

    Stopped by Tea Alley in downtown SJ and got the passion fruit green tea, honestly really good and…read moresuper refreshing. Not too sweet, just right. They got a lot of tea options plus Taiwanese snacks which I didn't try this time but looked pretty good. Downtown doesn't have that many boba spots so this place is kinda a lifesaver, esp when you just want something quick. Also they open super late (like 2am??), perfect if you're up late or just randomly craving boba at night. Place is small but chill, nothing fancy. Service was fine, got my drink pretty fast. I'd come back again for sure. Highly recommend if you in the area.

    Last time I came here was during covid and it did not disappoint. They had creative snacks that I…read morehadn't see at other boba spots. I came back and hyped my friends up on these pizza pockets they have. I mentioned if they still have it on the menu I'm going to order it. To my surprise, they did. I waited a normal amount of time for something like that -Maybe 10 minutes. It was quiet and not that busy/ evening time. While my friends and I waited, we scanned our surroundings and thought "yo. Why is there so many receipts and why are they brown like that." We checked and saw that there were receipts from march of 2025 on the front counter (currently November 2025). My friend asked them about it, so there's a chance they have since cleaned it, thrown it away. Think they might have more space on the counter if they address it.
