First West Coast Molly Tea Location! Molly Tea in Sunnyvale is located in the spot that used to be a Happy Lemon. Parking: Free, but limited in the complex Service: Decent and friendly Molly Tea started in Shenzhen, China, in 2020 and is known for its jasmine tea and Chinese tea flavors. The Sunnyvale location opened in late 2024 as its first West Coast location, there was a crazy long line that I witnessed during opening week. Molly Tea recently got into some legal trouble with Louis Vuitton in China over its four-petal floral logo. LV won the case, and Molly Tea was ordered to pay about RMB 10.3 million. Molly Tea plans to appeal. Anyway, I actually really like the tea here. The jasmine flavor comes through nicely, and I like that the sweetness isn't overpowering. Definitely a nice milk tea spot in Sunnyvale!

I've tried Molly tea a few times now. I like their Champaca teas. Recently tried the grape series that they have going on as their seasonal menu drink. It tasted nice, but definitely had the artificial grape candy flavor, although mild. It is usually pretty packed and busy here and rare to find parking right in front of the store. They have nice ambience and good store, branding and merchandise. I think they could do a little better on their drinks though. It's definitely known more for and there's a hype around the merchandise, the drinks are good quality ingredients, but taste OK and a bit pricey as well.

The tea is really good, for the size it's kinda $$$ overhype and over priced is what mindset you need to come in with. I get it Bay Area real estate and prices. However, for 16oz at around $8 that is a sell. But it's busy and people are coming in and out. The parking lot is not great. The tea is but you got to love tea.

I actually liked their matcha here. I always say matcha taste like seaweed to me and there matcha didn't have that taste.

Salted Cheese Thai Tea

Had a lovely visit to Molly Tea! The new Thai Tea Series was creamy, refreshing, and beautifully presented--especially the Salted Cheese Thai Tea and Dual-Layer drink. The staff was friendly, the space was inviting, and the limited-edition stamp sticker and knitted bag promotion made the visit even more fun. A great stop for boba lovers in the Bay Area!

White Champaca Matcha

The best Molly Tea in the Bay Area. I know they are all Molly Tea, but having tried different locations, this one has consistently delivered perfect drinks each time. Of their drinks on the menu, white champaca, white champaca oolong, dancong, white champaca matcha are the top drinks I cycle through. Although they recommend 70%, I actually prefer 30% sweetness, less ice. Truly brings out the tea flavor. This location had a new drink Camellia during the LNY. However, I have not seen it on the menu since March. Hopefully they'll bring it back. They now have order online via their website (chowbus), and I recently learned that they have an app. This makes ordering drinks at this location easy since it is located in corner strip mall with minimal parking.

Pistachio Jasmine Coconut!

After I told a hg that I really enjoy floral tea, she highly recommended Molly Tea! --- D R I N K S --- My favorite combo is the White Champaca Milk tea with a Jasmine Whipped Cream With Pecan top and sago! It sounds like a lot, but it actually works really well together. The White Champaca tea is on the mellow side, the Jasmine whipped cream adds additional floral aroma and extra creaminess, the sago gives texture without overpowering the drink, and the little bits of pecan add a nice surprise crunch. My husband's favorite is the Peach Oolong. I've had my fair share of peach milk teas over the years where they can be too sweet and the peach flavor tastes straight up like chemicals, but this has to be the best peach-flavored tea I've had so far! It has a fruity taste that doesn't overpower the flavor of the tea leaves. When I first visited last year, they had a "Fresh Oat Milk Tea Series", but I'm sad to say that it's not on this location's menu anymore. _______________________________________________________ ---A M B I A N C E -- I'm diggin' the woodsy, warm, Asian-y aesthetic they got going on! Tea and merch are displayed on the walls, and pink is definitely their signature color, so expect to see pops of it here and there in the decor, cups, and to-go bags. This location has a decent amount of chairs and tables, but let me tell you, this place was hella busy back when it was the only Bay Area location. We learned the hard way that the parking lot gets packed. Sometimes you'll get stuck in the super small lot because someone isn't even in a spot -- they just have their car parked with the hazards on while they run in to pick up their drink. Other times, cars are waiting and signaling for a parking spot while other cars are on standby waiting for people to leave after grabbing their drinks. The gas station behind the shop clearly got tired of it too because they put up a bunch of signs saying they'll tow if you park there just to visit Molly Tea. I highly recommend parking down the street near the apartment sidewalks or across the street and taking a little stroll to the store instead. Honestly, it just showed me that no matter how tiny the lot was, people still made the effort to slide through for drank. Fair warning though -- definitely expect to wait and chill. _______________________________________________________ --- S E R V I C E --- I will say, the staff handles the busyness pretty well. Lines are usually at or out the door, and they're receiving online orders simultaneously. There's another boba shop in the Bay that has a similar layout and process as Molly Tea, but that other chain feels like workers on an assembly line with deadpan faces. I feel like the brightness and warmth of Molly Tea is emphasized even more because of the friendly staff and their willingness to help with your order even after it's received.

Molly Tea is a favorite amongst boba drinkers, and this location is no different. The parking lot is a tad small, and the orders come in and out even on weekday afternoons when one might expect a calmer time. Ordering is pretty straightforward on their self-service kiosks. On this particular visit, I had their White Champaca Oolong Milk Tea with less ice and 30% sugar. Somehow, they always get it just right in terms of sweetness. The best part is the "three stack straw" which really brings out the taste of the tea. Drinks were being made and served to order minute by minute, and the overall wait time was ~ 15 minutes. While the seating here is comfortable and can be relaxing, make sure to plan ahead, as the sun can be quite the nuisance at the right angles!

Seems like I finally found a drink I like here! Fourth time's the charm, I guess. During my first visit, Halloween 2024, I tried the iced white champaca oolong milk tea, probably no sugar added. I didn't like the after taste, it was kind of weird. I can take bitter tea flavor but didn't care for this. I gave it another try a few months later and got the same drink. Same reaction. I went to the San Mateo location in Jan 2026 and tried the iced jasmine tea with matcha cheese top, no sugar added. It was better but I still wasn't impressed. They definitely have quality tea but I didn't get the hype around this brand. Fast forward to April 2026, a work friend needed sugar so I went along for the ride and to get a hot drink. I ordered the DanCong Oolong milk tea, hot with 30% sugar. SOO GOOD! I will go back for this. I do prefer oolong teas. I thought I would like white Champaca since it's oolong plus jasmine, but here we are. My friend's favorite is the iced DanCong and he got the snowy version with jasmine whipped cream and pecan topping, 70% sweet. Tasted great! Parking lot actually had spots but it was a Monday afternoon. Can't wait for the new Rivermark location to open in Santa Clara! I walked past there today and looks like they might open in another month or so.

Came by to try after lunch on Mother's Day, probably around 4PM. The place was SUPER busy when we went, but the service was still really fast and organized, we got our drinks within 10 minutes. The interior is modern and really cute, and they even have a dog check-in photo wall which was so so cute ! We got the snowy Jasmine with boba. Drinks themselves were light, fragrant, and refreshing. Even at 100% sweetness, they actually weren't too sweet, I would even argue getting 125% to match other boba places 100% sweetness. The boba had a really good flavor and sweetness to it that balanced everything out perfectly. Overall a great spot to grab a drink. Next time I want to try their Pistachio Matcha Coconut water so I will be coming back!

Ah the famous Molly Tea! Quite a few locations have popped up; I hope they open one in the Tri-Valley soon. They close at 10:00pm everyday which feels so late to me LOL. Yay for late night boba! There is quite a lot of people working behind the counter, but it seems like a well-oiled system. The music, the staff, the lighting, the figurines all remind me of playing Animal Crossing for some reason LOL. I love the sleek wood accents inside, and there are 2 screens to order from. There's another larger screen that displays all order #s that are in progress or ready. Parking is very limited; I was lucky to snag a spot since I came around 8:00pm, but I don't know the area well enough to know where else I would've parked if it was full?? I heard people have parked in the plaza across the street. There is no WiFi (that I know of) and my phone was running on slow LTE, might be just me. Premium Jasmine Milk Tea ($7.99): Well. This tasted like proper jasmine milk tea, I don't know how else to describe it. I bow down. Still good even as the ice melted! The cup is sealed beneath the to-go lid, so the extra safety is excellent for the car and preventing spillage. Next time I'll order online for a faster wait time and try more drinks to pop into the fridge :)

The store is reasonably big and has plenty of seats to chill and enjoy milk tea. It does get super busy, so it's better to order ahead of time and come for pickup. The parking lot is kinda small and fills up very quickly.

Good golly miss molly. Your teas are amazing, girl! I've heard about Molly Tea from my friends in SoCal who rave about this Chinese spot to hit the States. I was surprised to find out it's based in Shenzhen and not in Taiwan, but their teas speak for themselves. They pride themselves on their jasmine tea offerings and there is a lot to love. The moment you walk in, you are just hit with its aromatic scents which can make it hard to decide on your order. I went with one of their oat milk options (shout out to my non-dairy friends), the White Champaca Oat Milk Tea, with reduced ice and sugar. I was in love with this drink upon first sip. The floral tastes of the tea was so strong and really stood out compared to other boba shops. Additionally, they use crystal boba which provides a lighter experience rather than normal starchy tapioca (not that I have any issue with that because they are still my obsession). Overall, a must have tea experience. It's one of the best in the area and definitely adds to the competition within Cupertino. Note: the pink bags are only available through online orders. I didn't need one myself but if you really want one, make sure to order in advance.

I purchased a Mango Green Tea with crystal boba. At 0% sweet it was still pretty sweet, so I'm glad…read moreI got 0 sugar. The tea flavor was bold, and the crystal boba topping was generous. I was surprised to see a scripture reference on the seal. As for the tiramisu, I tried the classic as well as the mango tiramisu. I wished the mango had two layers of ladyfingers (the spongy part) like the classic did; instead, the whipped cream was 2/3 of the layers instead of 2/3 being ladyfingers. The classic was great though, no complaints. I'm curious to try other flavors next. Service was quick as there was no line. There is one small table outside for seating.

I…read morestopped by several hours before closing, but they were already sold out of almost half of the drinks menu, so my ordering was limited. It's a very small shop, and you'll most likely have to take your order to-go or scout for seating elsewhere in the plaza. I fully vouch for the ube tiramisu! It's a really cute dessert with a lovely smooth ube cream, and the Biscoff crumble pairs well with the nutty ube flavor. I am interested in returning to try their other tiramisus. Unfortunately, the drinks I tried (namely their cold brew latte and Hate My Boss signature) were not great. The coffee to milk ratio in the latte wasn't great, and the Hate My Boss tasted primarily of sugar, even at a less-sweet specification. I will say that I think their business is focused on its desserts, with their drinks as a sort of side attraction. Their drinks are on the inexpensive side, I'll give them that, but not so inexpensive that I feel like I can excuse their shortcomings. For what it's worth, the service was great, their store was clean (albeit a bit cluttered), and their desserts are tasty, so I can recommend it, but only for their desserts.

This spot is a takeaway counter only and shares the space and kitchen with Mayan Kitchen. You order at one of the electronic touchscreen screens and wait for your order.

The pork was sliced in thin slivers and marinated in a sweet and savory sauce. There were crispy wonton skins and cilantro in the filling too. The crepe wrapper itself had a chewy and pliant mouthfeel. Passionfruit tea that came with the combo was a bit sweeter than I'd prefer, especially since the pork belly marinade was already sweet. But the iced tea was refreshing on a warm sunny afternoon. I would come back to try other filling options for their jianbing when I'm in the area.
