    Momo Tea is a really solid spot for quality milk tea! So far, for the drinks, I've tried: + Gardenia Milk Tea: nice light green tea flavor and floral aroma. One of the lower caffeine tea options - good for later in the day so that the caffeine doesn't disrupt sleep. + Osmanthus Oolong Milk Tea: also nice and floral, medium oolong flavor. + Da Hong Pao Milk Tea: a richer oolong flavor, but not bitter. Stronger caffeine. + Narcissus Milk Tea: the strongest one I've tried so far, a hint of bitterness. For all of them, I got 50% sugar and less ice, which was the perfect sweetness level for me (not too sweet). I also recommend getting them with the whipped cream and pecans topping if it's an option. It adds another level of decadence - the roasted pecans are so good! I also tried the Original Egg Puff (good) and Dark Chocolate Egg Puff (meh - the chocolate chips in it were too sweet, and the egg puff waffle part wasn't crispy like the original one was). I do wish there were smaller sizes offered; the only size available is a large cup. The shop has cute decorations inside and seating for several small parties to sit and chat. Service has consistently been great each time. I'll definitely be back to try more of the other teas offered!

    White peach oolong milk tea
    Allen Z.

    I went to Momotea in the late afternoon and there was no line. The staff was friendly and you can order from the kiosk or the front. I ordered the white peach oolong milk tea with no sugar and it was delicious. I asked if I should use the thick straw or that super thin straw and the staff said the thin straw. For the future I would use the thicker straw because I can slurp up the cream and pecan nuts that are on top of the drink. Was having difficulty drinking it with the thinner straw. Next time I will try the other flavored drink on the menu since they look so appealing. Only downside is that Momotea doesn't offer tapioca boba.

    Osmathus Jasmine Milk Tea

    The osmanthus jasmine milk tea was very fragrant. The whipped cream with pecan on top added richness to the drink. There was no line on a Friday late afternoon and my order was made quickly. There was little seating inside.

    Momo tea is a great little tea spot on Irving that does the job when you're craving milk teas. Ordered the Dao Hong Pao milk tea and liked the strong milk tea flavor. They also had interesting flavors like yuzu, coconut milk teas etc. that I'd want to try on my next visit! Service was easy self- service ordering at a kiosk or ordering with the customer service team at the front. My drink came out quickly and the staff were friendly. The interior was cute and pink and looked like a good spot to hang out at. It has some seating, which is nice as some boba shops are grab and go. Parking is metered street parking or residential parking.

    Teas were great! Good flavor and lots of caffeine :) We got the Peach Oolong Milk Tea and the Camellia Milk Tea. Place was very cute inside - points for playing Twice on the tv! Ordering was very easy on of the tablet. Would visit this place again!

    Jasmine Milk Tea
    Elizabeth Y.

    Cute shop with tasty boba! I tried the jasmine milk tea, and it was light with good flavor. The boba had great texture--I was surprised because I was expecting the more jelly-like crystal boba, but these had a really nice soft chew. Will try to come back soon!

    Gardenia Milk Tea
    Joanne D.

    Heard this place was the Molly Tea duped, so I had to try it out!! I like my milk tea - strong tea flavor and this place delivered. I got the Gardenia Milk Tea with the whipped cream. Service was really quick and the cashier was very friendly. Overall excellent experience. The place is decorated and there's tables and chairs.

    We heard that this place is very similar to Molly Tea and it's true!! Drinks we ordered: White Peach Oolong Milk Tea: Less sugar 50%, No Cream and No Pecan, with Oat Milk. This drink was very refreshing! Can definitely taste the white peach. Just the right amount of sweetness. The drink container is so cute and aesthetically pleasing!! Twilight Lemon Tea: Less Sugar 50%. Very light and flavorful. The staff was very friendly. Our drinks came out within a few minutes of us ordering via the touch pad in the store. We are looking forward to coming back here soon!!

    Such a cute cafe in inner sunset. Super fragrant tea drinks, similar to Molly Tea, with more drink variety and snacks. Order at kiosk or counter, there is 10% cash discount available. I ordered the Osmanthus Jasmine Milk tea with no whip cream ($6.99, but with tax is $7.60). Milk options are whole milk and oat milk. Milk tea has some foam on top, very fresh with strong Jasmine tea. If you want more tea flavor, go with less sugar, I think half sugar is best. To drink, you will be provided with a 3 hole straw which is supposed to make you sip slower and savor the tea flavors. Definitely would try the yuzu lemon tea next.

    Suite sign
    Emmett T.

    Located in the Inner Sunset District of SF, Momo Tea was a random stop as we wanted to get some after lunch refreshments. The suite had a prominent pink color with lots of Chinese calligraphy. Seating was quite limited as there were maybe two tables and a benchtop. A menu screen was displayed at the service counter next to the register. Drinks ranged between $6.50 and $7.50. There were less than 20 total choices across the categories of Fresh Milk Tea, Lemon Tea, and Specials (lattes). My choice was a Coconut Lemon Tea with less ice and regular sugar. I also requested crystal boba as a topping. The only other topping option was aloe which I didn't want. The tartness of the lemon tea significantly overshadowed the coconut flavor. The boba chewiness was good, however the $6.99 cost for a 16 oz serving was steep. The fresh milk teas were probably the way to go if you come here. I gave a three star rating for our visit to Momo Tea.

    Wanted to come here since I've never been there before and the designs in the cups were so pretty. The area had 1-2 small tables to sit at. Ordering on the machine was very easy. However, my group and I ordered only 3 drinks and I noticed that other parties that ordered after us were getting their drinks first even though they ordered more than us. I got the Dahongpao milk tea with boba and the drink itself does have a strong tea taste. I wished that there was a little bit more sweetness to it. The boba itself didn't have any flavor and the consistency wasn't chewy.

    Matcha Latte

    I've been here a lot and never been disappointed! Momo tea has converted me into a milk tea drinker! I used to prefer fruit teas but I feel like the teas here are so good (I get dairy free milk options), I've really enjoyed them. There's limited topping options, I usually get crystal boba or red bean. They have a cute pink interior with a few seating/table options

    Diana N.

    The place is super cute and I absolutely loved it. I took lots of pics with my friend and the drinks were good! Not overly sweet. There was only girl working when we were there and she was super sweet! Would definitely recommend

Parking nearby is horrendous, super busy even on the weekdays before the rush hour so I can't imagine weekends when people are out or other high traffic times. Get ready to make some rounds and pay for parking and be careful since there's very specific signage and times. The cafe itself is cute and cozy. Front area is a gift shop with lots of cat themed gifts and goodies like keychains, stickers, and such, and also some items from local and small artists too, which is neat. The cafe also has community events like movie showings ("The Cat Returns" was one of them which is a great choice) and cat yoga. If you're local, you can also get a time stamp if you are a frequent visitor. Definitely follow their socials for more information. There's reservations online and you can also do walk ins if it's not super busy. You can book for a 55 minute visit or a 30 minute visit. PRO-TIP: There's a discount for students, so if you want to be surrounded by some feline friends while you study or relax, great place to do so. You can hang your coat on the rack and there's a mini shelf area for your shoes. So you gotta walk in with socks! With each visit you can either get a hot cup of tea or a cold can or box drink from their fridge (sparking water, juices, etc.). Very refreshing and you can enjoy it in the cat area too. Sanitize your hands before and after visiting. There's lots of cats hiding around, sleeping, walking around, and some are super friendly and will go into your lap. There's toys you can play with the cats with and there's a wall of adoptable cats. Lots of seats or you can opt to sit on the floor with the cats too. There's relaxing lo-fi music throughout too.
