    Pretty in pink
    Zarin B.

    100000% my new fav boba spot!!!! Let me tell you why: I love their unique drink creations! They all sound soooo tasty!!!! It's hard to even choose one. I love that they let you customize tea strength. My extra strong jasmine green tea with the strawberry absolutely HIT today. The sugar customizations are on point. 50% sweet actually feels like a 50% sweet. Other places 50% still feels way too sweet for me. I love that they have the option for the split drinks!! For a place like this, that's gold because its hard to even decide which drink to choose. Choosing 2 is easier than choosing 1. I absolutely loved my #3 Pretty in Pink with strong tea and half sweet. And the prices are super reasonable for the amount you get (including toppings!) Service was friendly and welcoming. Ambiance was interesting.

    I wanted to try Pekoe because they offer split cup and wanted to try different flavors than I normally order. This is also a new to me bubble tea spot. I ordered online and it was ready when I arrived. The tea is flavorful even at 50% sugar. The pretty in pink side has heart shaped jelly with boba and the green drink was so creamy with jelly. I love the split cut to get two flavors! Will definitely try again with different flavors.

    Such a cool space!! Highly recommend going- lots of seating and unique shop! Drinks were average/normal prices and delicious flavor. I would recommend getting held the sweetness as they run a bit sweet but everyone to their own preference. When we went there was no one inside so they were super quick with our drinks. 5/5 stars

    Super cute spot to hang out/catch up with family/friends. Service was super friendly with the worker not hesitating to answer the questions I had. Love the creative drink names! I ordered the Mario and Lui-ychee, which was a lhee infused tea with fresh lychee pieces. Loved how flavorful this tea was. I also tried the Matcha Man, which is a matcha latte topped with strawberry cream. So good. I'd definitely get both again. I tried two additional drinks, both of which I wasn't a fan of. I found the Pretty In Pink to be just okay and thought both the addition of strawberry hearts and honey black pearls were too much. I also tried a strawberry fruit tea with fresh strawberry pieces - the Miami Vice was way too sweet. Didn't even drink a quarter of it before it got thrown away.

    DRINKS We ordered the "honeydew you like me" (honeydew milk tea based slushy with boba), "matcha man" (matcha milk tea with strawberry cream), and the split cup of pekoe style milk tea and Mario & Lui-ychee. We got the third drink free since they are offering a buy 2 get 1 free deal for the summer. All the drinks were definitely powder-based and felt more fake than fresh. I was a little disappointed since they are the only ones in the area that have split cup options and such a nice interior. However, the artificial flavors of the drinks threw us all so off that it was difficult to enjoy. The Mario & Lui-ychee drinks was probably the best out of all of them, as it was light yet refreshing with the lychee bits as well. The kicker was also their boba, which was rock hard and so difficult to chew that we ended up spitting it out or avoiding consuming altogether. The topping was hot to touch at the base of the drink when holding, but you could tell that it was just reheated to seem fresh. FOOD They offer a selection of banh mis for purchase, though we didn't get any. SERVICE The staff are kind and friendly. They were really patient/accommodating in clarifying some of the drink selections, etc. AMBIANCE The interior is decorated very modernly and neat and fits the lounge theme. It's a great place to relax or catch up with friends. Their selection of music ranges from mostly k-pop or j-pop but definitely a mix of hip hop, pop, etc. PARKING About ten parking spots are available in front of the store and on the side. BATHROOMS The bathrooms are clean and tidy. It did smell a little weird, but what got us the most was that the women's restroom couldn't lock.

    The setting was very elegant and pretty boujie for a bubble tea place. Service was average. I got the sugarcane drink. I've tried a sugarcane drink in Vietnam and I was anticipating to be drinking at least something similar to it, but no. I could not finish my drink... lol. One and done. lol.

    Holy Bubble Tea! Pekoe is definitely the place to get your fruit or milk teas or naugh-teas. The inside of this location is beautiful. There was plenty of seating and mini tables to sit and stay a while. One section included a cherry blossom tree. There were also two large screens blasting music. They are open until midnight so if you are in the mood for a late night treat this is the place. I don't know many places that offer a split cup where you can try two different drinks in one cup, but this is genius. I went with the Manly Melon for the fruit tea and the Foxy Brown for the milk tea. I did order the milk tea without the pearls. Both drinks were delicious and could be customized to have more/less ice and more/less sweetness. I am not in the area that often, but I will make sure to stop when I am. There are so many more varieties that I would love to try.

    What a nice, spacious and cozy spot to hang out for a delicious cup of bubble tea! I like the split cup option so you can taste the best of both worlds. I was left satisfied! I will definitely stop by here again when I'm in the area.

    Another day another bubble tea spot appears on the scene in Nova. This place tries to be different with interesting/creative flavor combos. There is also the option of a split cup so you can try 2 flavors. The interior feels lounge-like. The one downside is the ability to customize is limited. As an example, 30% sugar is a common level, especially for Asian customers. However pekoe only offers 0 or 50% (or more) - of course 50 ended up being too sweet.

    Pekoe Special

    My friends and I stopped by Pekoe after dinner this past Wednesday since we've heard that there is another boba shop opened in the Fairfax area. The interior will give TeaDM a run for the money -- it give bar/club vibes especially with the dance pop/EDM music playing in the background. The TV screens are huge. There's a lot of modern club-looking sofas that you can sit at to enjoy your boba. If you're looking for a typical cafe style small table + 2 seats, you won't find it here. PEKOE SPECIAL - 6.50 Thanks to the employee who took my order, they highly recommended half sweet for the drink (earl grey milk tea infused with lavender and orange bergamot with grass jelly + black pearls) since the tea flavor is super strong. Personally, I thought the tea was over-steeped. The half sweet suggestion definitely helped. I didn't love the flavors of the milk tea (kind of reminded me of the herbal soups and drinks I had growing up) but I enjoyed it more as I continued to drink it. Overall, I wouldn't get this specific drink again next time. We were able to chill here for a bit, but definitely hard to hear with all the music. The boba shop seemed popular. There were a few other parties here besides us.

    Really bad but wanted to love it! The tea here was so bad I couldn't drink it - extremely artificial flavor. I had the lycee & basic milk tea in a split cup. I simply couldn't drink it. Extremely sweet even though I did the reduced sugar option & it did not even taste like tea. The split cup idea is super fun and I wanted to love this place! Lots of potential since I saw they also have sugar cane juice which is super hard to find. Staff were also super nice. But as the tea is not even tea in my opinion. I wouldn't go back when there are lots of other great places in the area that serve real brewed tea.

    Roasted oolong tea

    When you walk inside, the boba place definitely has more of a modern decor. Typically you can see the workers make your boba, but not here :0 My cousins and I came during their grand opening and was greeted by a friendly cashier. She provided great customer service with a smile!!! They have unique drink options with very unique names. I like how the drink options also included toppings in it. Less work for me to think what would pair well haha I got the roasted oolong tea with less sweet. I think I would have been getting full sweet for this drink because it wasnt that sweet. The tea flavor is also pretty strong. I tried my sisters drink which was the kawaii tea and was more on the fruitier end.

    Split cup
    Christina N.

    I knew this as a Californian chain and was excited when they opened here! The menu has a lot of unique flavors, but the thing that makes Pekoe different is the split cup. It's great for people who have trouble deciding what they want or get bored with a full-size drink. I got the Thai Tea Whities and Pekoe Special in the split cup and I enjoyed both flavors. I really liked the flavor of the green thai tea in the Thai Tea Whities, it was light and refreshing for a milk tea. I will say, the sea salt crema and milk pudding makes the overall drink a bit too heavy and rich for me so I'm glad I got it as a split cup. I preferred the Pekoe Special of the two flavors. It's a more classic flavor profile, but it tasted great regardless. The inside is pretty spacious with a lot of seating and two large screens playing K-pop music videos. It's a fun vibe and open until midnight, I would definitely come back!

The cozy, clean space features nature-inspired decor, including wooden tables and chairs, tea-themed pictures on the walls, plants, and Taiwanese touches. They also offer non-tea treats like egg pancakes and wheel cakes. You can customize your drinks with different sugar levels for the perfect flavor every time. Most tea offerings are iced, but hot options are available upon request. - Iced Red Bean Sago Latte: This creamy, red bean bingsu-inspired beverage features chewy sago for added texture. The earthy sweetness of red bean perfectly balances the rich milk. - Hot Taro Latte: Made with real taro root, this latte is thicker and chunkier with a natural, mellow sweetness. It boasts a rich, earthy, and nutty flavor, avoiding artificial purple-taro notes.

The black sesame latte is pretty good-- it has a strong black sesame taste as well as the little black sesame bits. It's pretty simple as it's mainly milk and black sesame. It's really hard to find any here so I'm very happy that they brought this out. The mung bean sago smoothie is a classic Chinese dessert but in drink form. It is such a good dessert! I was very happy with both drinks, even though I know that they're better known for their fruits drinks. Service was fast and their bathroom is clean. It's really nicely decorated with comfortable chairs and a good amount of seating. It's a really good place to do some work.

The store has spots to sit down but the tables are extremely wobbly and dingy. No music or anything playing inside either so it's very quiet. Almost too quiet and spooky quiet.

The tea cubes didn't have the strong tea flavor that I remembered, but I love the light chewy texture and prefer it over tapioca. The milk tea was decent, but not a very strong tea flavor which is more of my preference. Overall, I enjoy Ben Gong's Tea more than some of the local options in the area, but I will take the big Chinese chains like HEYTEA and Shuyi over Ben Gong's any day.
