Love the strawberry black tea but put i5 at 0% sugar because the strawberry syrup is really sugary. They have clean bathrooms and cozy lights with board games. read more

I enjoy myself a nice tea spot. The staff is friendly and they have tons of options. I went with a match green tea latte with 30% sugar and I added some boba. It was an excellent end to the evening! read more

Tea Top - Bubble Tea Near Me - Ellicott City, Maryland

I ordered some tea online, and added a cake slice. I found their menu unclear. I added some jellies to mine but didn't get from the menu that it already came with quite a bit, and so ended up with a cup that had a ton of gelatinous desserts in it. Not the worst thing, but not quite what I thought I was getting. A tiramisu cake slice was small but rich. Overall, satisfying. read more

Tea Top - Bubble Tea Near Me - Ellicott City, Maryland

Tea Top is my usual go-to tea spot if I'm in the E.C. area - Their drink menu is pretty extensive, offering traditional teas, milk foam and cheese foam teas, matcha, milk and fresh milk teas, fruit teas, lemon and yogurt teas, slushies, and even snacks if you have the munchies (such as coconut shrimp, veggies with rice, chicken fried steak, popcorn chicken, etc.). I had the Yogurt Orange and the Passion Fruit Black Tea - both were okay, but the tea tasted slightly bitter and the drink itself was a bit watered down. Ordering the teas via their kiosks were super convenient; once your items are done, the staff will call out your number. Staff here are very kind and friendly, and there are a handful of seating inside; the decorations are super cute, especially the hanging 'lightning' clouds! Plenty of parking in the large plaza lot. +inconsistent tea drinks +friendly service +seating available +plenty of parking read more

Came here since everyone was saying I must try their boba. I got one of their most popular drinks. It was the "Top Ten Pearl Milk Tea" which was earl grey based. I got 50% sweetness and found it to be a good level for me. However, I didn't think the drink was anything special. I've had tastier boba drinks. Perhaps I need to try a different drink there. Cute ambiance and quick service. read more

Went there because my friend said it's the best Taiwanese style braised pork rice in the area, and of course I have to try it, I ordered the one with vegetables and I would advise to get the one without the vegetables(It was just cabbage and it's like they cooked it in vinegar or some sort--it tasted a bit sour), I was expecting it to be stir fried with garlic or just steamed. Otherwise, the pork and the egg were pretty authentic. The bubble tea was decent as well, lots of choices in terms of the flavors and toppings, also tried the savory tangyuan, it was not my favorite but kudos for them for just having the choice. At the end of the day I would recommend the fried chicken or the braised pork over rice for this place. read more

This restaurant looks very clean and esthetic which I enjoyed. Plenty of seating for people to sit down and enjoy. They do have to board games by the floral wall which seems like a great idea! The flavor of the matcha latte was good but not amazing. I did love that there was a ton of boba (I did pay extra for more) and the red bean was good too! I definitely want to come back and try the taro milk tea with sago! read more

We have been here 3 times. Each time food quality has become more substandard. Example rice overcooked, Taiwanese chicken not burned but overcooked and salty. The second time I ordered 4 meals and three were in package. There are 3 people working and I am pretty none have safeserve this is a law and code violation. I love Taiwan and its food and people but when I made a complaint I was asked not to come back. The first time was went a woman with us left her water bottle. She lives in Northern Virginia so I called Tea Top and told them they said she would put Roses name on it and after we ate only 1/2 our meal i said to the chinese man that I called and will return the very used mug, the straw chewed. After I wrote, the owner leo and told him of our experience. He then told me that I was no allowed in the . There is no one inspecting food. This is fried food the food was dark maybe oil was old, dont know but all restaurants must follow the laws they changed cabbage and was cheaper and bitter. At $6+ bubble tea better be good. I have been in store and never seen a manager, I believe there are 2 more and if this one is trying to cut costs to make it not to code who knows if the others are. Safety is safety thats why they have these laws and over the last 9 months the restaurant has become sadly becoming substandard. Nothing worse than soggy rice and I saved it to show owner just became retalitory and offensive. read more

I have never been to this spot before but it is so cute! The atmosphere kinda gives me college "sit down and hang" vibes. Love it! I was also surprised they served a good amount of food. I believe they were sold out of food whe n I got there but to be fair, I did get there pretty late. In terms of parking, there is ple ty and it's all free. They do share parking with other establishments but i don't see it being an issue at all. As for the staff, they were lovely and got the orders done quickly. The drink menu is massive and they have options for those who are vegan or just lactose intolerant. Everything looked amazing and I loved what I got. 10/10 will for sure be going back in the future. read more

Cute bubble tea cafe with fun decor and a variety of food menu as well. Ordered the butterfly blue sky milk tea and popcorn nuggets. The butterfly milk tea was not that great and tasted more like milk with little butterfly tea flavor. However, the popcorn chicken was really good. It was well seasoned and crispy, the perfect snack when hanging out friends or playing one of the many board games they have in the store. Definitely a nice place to just talk and chill. The food and drinks came out pretty fast. I would come back to try their other bubble tea flavors and food options read more

Tea Top - Butterfly blue sky - Bubble Tea Near Me - Ellicott City, Maryland

Tea Top has been on my top to do list for a while! It did NOT disappoint. I ordered mango green tea, butterfly blue sky, alpine rose & jasmine green tea. The location is charming and has board games and tables for customers to enjoy if staying. Well lit, the staff was friendly and I was grateful that I wasn't pressured to getting more than 30% sugar in any of the order. I can definitely see why this Top Tea location is popular. The butterfly blue sky? Wonderful! Butterfly pea tea is calming so if you need or want a "chill pill" order any of the butterfly tea options. The mango green tea was also very tasty ( if you have a sensitive palate, you'll taste the nuances and depth). I think I would have enjoyed the mango green tea even more with zero sugar. If you are a snacker, they have good options for that as well. If you love quality tea, add this spot to your list. read more

I love coming here for boba. Tea Top has the best boba and ambience in Ellicott City. I enjoy coming here to catch up with friends or to spend some time by myself to unwind with a book. In the month of February, Tea Top has a Valentine's Alpine rose green tea special. It's light, refreshing and has just the right hint of rose. It's perfect to treat yourself or share with your love. A special shout out to the staff for recommending this. I'm officially a fan of rose tea. I'll be back for more! read more

I'm glad there's a local and authentic boba shop in the EC area. It was not a hard decision to make when picking a place for dessert after dinner. Surprisingly, it was pretty empty on Sunday night. It was a great place to catch up with a couple friends since Tea Top also closes pretty late (for suburb standards) at 9:30 PM. There's your typical Instagram aesthetics (flower adorned walls, the store name printed in wooden blocks, lights, etc.) which fills most of the interior. SIGNATURE ALPINE GREEN MILK TEA - 5.25 I thought this was really interesting and was told that it would have more of a "pine" taste and it definitely does. I got this drink with grass jelly (+0.75, I think) and 30% sugar. 30% sugar is usually a hit or miss with me but I found it to be a bit too sweet (after drinking half of the boba, I was done). The alpine green tea is definitely unique and worth the try. Next time, I'll just go for 0% sugar, HAHA. Like other boba shops, the boba price inflation is too real. I'm glad I stopped by Tea Top after eyeing it for so long! I will try a different topping next time (friend said the tapioca pearls were too soft, though). read more

Got the taro milk tea with sago with 80% sugar and it is amazing. My first sip was like OMG!! Has real taro bits and it's not purple!! Most places use powder for their taro but not here. This was authentic!! You could also really taste the flavor of the tea used. You can tell this place knows how to brew their tea. They also have some authentic Taiwanese dishes as well. I wanted to order a second one but didn't want to look like a pig. I'll just have to come back another time. Finally, a place in Maryland that has real taro milk tea. I will be sure to come back and try some of the other drinks out. You won't be disappointed if you order the taro milk tea here! Highly recommended as someone who has had milk tea in multiple places in multiple states and the motherland of boba milk tea. read more

Fantastic bubble tea, great selection on a big menu, customizable drinks, and good price and size. Might be a little overwhelming for a newcomer but just ask for the staff recommendations, they were very nice! I ordered their matcha latte with pearls 50% sugar and it was perfect! My friends enjoyed their drinks too, one got the same drink with 0% sugar but it was too bitter as the staff said it would be haha. His mistake. Cute decor inside but dine-in is closed during pandemic. You can only order by phone which was a little inconvenient and you cannot wait inside the restaurant, there is only space for one person to enter. read more

If you're on Kayak, I'm the TRAVELOCITY TOP If you want sausage, I'll bring the D TOP If you're Pam Anderson, I'm the TOMMY LEE TOP If I'm a Spice Girl, you're the WANNABE TOP If this review gets censored you can blame the FCC TOP If you have 2 lovers, wanna make it THREE TOP? Wanna see a Wonka, I'll show you the WILLY TOP And afterwards we'll go and get a Boba from TEA TOP WHAT! Some of the best Boba in the Baltimore area, and I don't know if the Capital Region and Maryland appreciate how rare and delicious Tea Top locations are. My original notes: Absolutely love. Houston still my fave. Lovely creamy milk teas. Best. Great service. Get the tips. Spectacular new employee. Cleaning light fixture. But then as time went by and I visited for a 3rd, 4th and 5th time I came to realize that it's not my fave. And I'm torn between 4 and 5 stars. What to get: Black Milk Tea, Oolong Milk Tea, Grapefruit w Black Tea, Orange w Black Tea, Watermelon w Black tea when they have it Or: Switch the black (Darjeeling) tea to Sun Moon Lake (also black) for any of those drinks for a different but similarly wonderful taste. And: ask for brown sugar instead of regular sweetener for an even more sweet and rich taste if you're into that. What not to get: Into a relationship with a Tea Bottom... subs are so boring. Note: they may not make off-menu drinks at this one. I'm not sure. It wouldn't surprise me if they didn't (scowls). If there were Tea Tops all over the East Coast, this one would definitely get four stars at most. Just because of those issues. In fact, if there was even one or two other ones in the whole of the Northeast then maybe just 4 for this one. The problem is that Tea Tops, these amazing boba shops that are something very special, are hard to find out East (one in Atlanta, one here, nothing else East of Houston), and this is literally the only one north of Atlanta in the Eastern half of the country, or the Eastern 90% of the country for that matter. Pretty tragic really. I have to admit that Tea Top has better products than the vast majority of the other chains. I'm not really sure why, but you can taste the difference yourself. This location has a very tall employee who made me my drink and he was friendly, for the most part. They have some nice decor on their walls. They have an $8 credit card minimum, which isn't very appreciated, even though I often use cash. The female owner didn't really want to talk when I asked how business was going (nobody else was in the store except her employees, it was quiet and late and she was quite dismissive). I also saw her ordering the really, really attractive employee to climb on the table and try and clean the light fixtures. She was snappy about it and rubbed me the wrong way. Dust came down off them and dispersed into the store. Why not do that when nobody is in the store? And surely the 2 or 3 tall males that were also working that day were a better option than the vertically challenged, ridiculously friendly female employee? I've been here a lot now, and posted a bunch of pix too, but they don't ever remember me in here. NBD, doesn't affect the taste of the Boba. This might not sound like a 5 star review, and employees/ownership are anywhere from a 1 to a 4 in my experience so far, but the products are just about a 5 considering there's nothing as good as Tea Top for hundreds of miles. Let's finish with some rap... If I come here naked, please don't call a TEA COP I used to have a bad leg, so I did the TEA HOP When I use the bathroom, you can hear the TEA PLOP But when I want Milk Tea, I head straight to TEA TOP I used to sit on Anfield Road, now I'm on the TEA KOP I used to love Brendan, now I love my TEA KLOPP I used to stick to one lover, now we love to TEA SWAP But when I want Grapefruit, I head straight to TEA TOP I got so excited, I let the f***ing TEA DROP Barbie in heels almost slipped in the milk TEA SLOP But the servers didn't mind, they brought out the TEA MOP And quickly rustled up a nice replacement TEA TOP If you still have your cherry, I can help it TEA POP Always keep it up and hard, never let my TEA FLOP But that was when I was a dude, then I had the TEA CHOP And when I want perfect service, I head straight to TEA TOP WHAT read more

I come here somewhat frequently with friends; I definitely think its one of the better bubble tea shops in ellicott city if you are into fruitier teas. I personally enjoy passion fruit, pineapple, passion fruit+mango slushies, and yogurt green tea. I recommend normally just getting 80% sugar (or 50% if you are feeling less sweet:)) and less ice (if it is not a slushy). I recently had the yogurt lemonade, which I would not recommend. Brown sugar with fresh milk drink was okay, but I would recommend teatop more for fruitier or "non-basic" drinks. I want to try their new milk foam honeydew slushy soon (apparently it is very delish)! Oh, and their boba pearls can be a hit or miss, but usually on the better side. read more

A lot of bubble tea shops don't have good food but this place is the exception. We got the house chicken bun with basil and it was freaking delicious. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and the bun was lightly sweet and all around PERFECT. We would come here for the food alone if I had a craving for Taiwanese fried chicken. The drinks here are also so much better than the other major chains that people are familiar with. They're consistent at the the drink recipes since some places make their drink taste different every time you go. Highly recommend coming here! read more

Always nice to stop in TeaTop, get my punch card punched, get our fix on boba drinks, munch on flavorful popcorn chicken, and squeeze in a game of Sorry! This is TeaTop in a nutshell. My kids always share their lychee slushy paired with the popcorn chicken. We also tried the new offering of orange green tea and we added some coconut jelly to it. If you love chewing on something as you drink, the pearl matcha latte with boba is the one to get. Another nice thing about TeaTop is that compared to the nearby competition, it is slightly cheaper without losing any of the big flavors. Also a nice play to spend some quality family time over some snacks. read more

Tea Top - Bubble Tea Near Me - Ellicott City, Maryland

Due to current circumstances, I believe Tea Top is temporarily closed for the time being (someone please correct me if I'm wrong because I miss boba so much.) Also, Happy Boba day! This review dates back to February of this year. I have never actually been inside of Tea Top, but I was given bubble tea from this store and it was delicious. From what I remembered, I had the Passionfruit Green Tea with Less sugar, less ice and black pearls. It tasted pretty delicious with the right balance of tea taste and sugar. The tapioca pearls had an amazing consistency they cooked it just right. I personally like milk series with my boba but the Passionfruit is definitely something refreshing to drink during summer or warmer weather. Would love to come back and try other flavors and to see the decor. I haven't tried any of the food but I've heard from friends that the house chicken bun is the thing to order. So for Valentine's Day this year, I went on a date and this guy decided to make me a customized boba boutique. He purchased all the materials and took several straws (sorry Tea Top) but it was pretty darn adorable. Really enjoyed the cleverness and unique gifting rather than your typical bouquet of flowers. Just based off of Yelp photos, that flower wall looks like an epic IG backdrop. Another reason why I need Tea Top to desperately re-open as soon as possible. From my understanding, Tea Top is considered a Chain bubble tea place as well. They're not as hyped up as KFT or Gong Cha, but it's definitely worth a try. I believe their prices are just a bit lower as well compared to other competitors. read more

Tea Top - My boba bouquet - Bubble Tea Near Me - Ellicott City, Maryland

Dropped by for dessert after lunch in the Ellicott City area. Located in a relatively spacious sized strip mall with plenty of parking. We tried their Signature Alpine Green Milk Tea and Lychee Slush. Signature Alpine Green Milk Tea 4/5: Good tea flavor, I appreciate that you can taste the green tea quality and it's not overwhelming with the sugar and creamer. Definitely a different green tea than the ones you get at other boba chains. Personally I don't like my drinks too sweet so 50% sugar and light ice was perfect. Their boba was chewy and sweetened but overall felt a little mushy in texture. Lychee Slush 3/5 Lychee flavor comes out but a little artificial tasting overall. Would recommend trying another flavor, perhaps one of their signature slushes. Location was nice, they had a variety of tables for people to sit at and some board games on the side. They do have a number of Taiwanese dishes on the menu. They also have a drink/food combos such as their Taiwanese popcorn chicken which I want to try next time. read more

Don't you love spontaneous trips? This place was on my list to visit but I didn't realize how close this location was. We ordered the Thai Tea and Black Milk Tea, along with popcorn chicken. I thought the Thai tea was too sweet. The sweetness overtook the taste of the tea. But, the Black Milk Tea was great! Popcorn chicken was great. This setting is spacious, good spot to hang with friends, play board games. Pricing is a bit high, but I think it's worth it. read more

LOVE this place! Good music, esthetically pleasing, has good bubble tea AND good food. (What?!) I ordered the winter melon tea with cheese foam and boba. The cheese foam comes with instructions on the lid for noobs like myself. The cheese foam itself tastes almost like a whipped cream cheese. It's sweet, salty, and creamy at the same time, and it went well with the winter melon tea. The drink was DEFINITELY on the sweet side, and I would've preferred a little less sugar. The house chicken bun was delicious. It is similar to Ekiben's neighborhood bird, but simplified. The fried chicken is your regular taiwanese fried chicken--very crispy and salty. It's dressed with cilantro, cucumbers, and a spicy sriracha mayo. It was very filling. Definitely would order again! Tea Top offers bubble tea + taiwanese fried chicken combos for ~$7 or 8. I'm planning to get one of those next time I visit if I'm not hungry enough for a house chicken bun. The exterior of the small place is swallowed by the much louder signs of adjacent stores in the shopping center. Compared to other bubble tea places, Tea Top seemed to have a quieter, calmer ambiance inside. The upbeat music was a reasonable volume for conversation. I visited midday on a Saturday, and it was the perfect casual study environment. The walls are very instagram worthy, and the entire place (bathroom included) is very CLEAN. Service is so friendly too! TIPS: It's cold in here! Bring a sweater. Don't forget to get your punch card for your 11th drink free. read more

Tea top used to be my favorite but sadly the past couple times i came the boba didnt taste the same as i used to remember. Tea top was very consistent and i enjoyed the texture of the boba. The past few times the boba was a little firmer which tasted old and had a weird after taste. Also i got the fruit tea and noticed it has been more sweet than usual. The service is fast. The workers are helpful and are efficient. The milk tea has real dairy so if you are lactose you should try the fruit teas or nonmilk teas. My wife tried the matcha latte which she loved! She likes the milk tea as well. Although the boba quality has not been the same, it is still much better than any of the baltimore boba spots. read more

Sweetness overload for the drink I order, which was the Fresh Milk w/Brown Sugar Pearl. :( When I got my drink, the cup was almost half brown sugar pearl and half milk. Not gonna lie, I got the drink since I had Tiger Sugar recently. I expected the drink to be sweet due to the brown sugar, but not the kind of sweet where it felt like I was drinking straight up syrup. I mixed my drink with with some tea I made at home to dilute the sweetness, so I can drink it. I had their drink previously before covid happened, and it was pretty good; hence, the 3 stars rating rather than a 2. I'm not sure if quality of the drinks have gone down since covid started or not, so I will probably give this place another try again. read more

It has been on my to do list to visit a lot of the new spots that have been popping up on route 40. Today I reserved for this place. I went with the brown sugar jasmine milk and house chicken bun. Due to covid you can only call in your order or order and pay online. You enter only to be greeted by tables at the door to block entry, an employee brings receipt to sign and leave with items. Cafe looked really good inside. I will be happy when we are post covid as looks like a wonderful place to sit and read or spend a rainy day. It is located in Enchanted Forest shopping center which brought tears to my eyes of memories. You customize items when ordering. For tea, you indicate ice and sugar level and many other add ons. Same for bun. I ordered spicy bun but isn't what I would call spicy. Crunch is amazing. It is a perfect small lunch option and the tea is perfect mix of tea with milk. I think I should have added more sugar but oh well. The jasmine tea provides a soft perfumed jasmine taste and the milk balances it out. The bun was loaded with the fried chicken, cucumber, shredded lettuce and cilantro and a mayo-esque sauce. Bun perfect. Next time I will load up with the other topping choices. Can't wait. Very happy with this midday bite. read more

This review is based on the food here, not the drinks ... We didn't feel like any sweet stuff and just wanted the meals. We ordered the braised pork on rice, chicken fried steak on rice, popcorn chicken, and the house chicken bun. The braised pork on rice was a little sweet for my taste, but my kids really enjoyed it. My wife liked the chicken friend steak, and we all really enjoyed the spices they put on the popcorn chicken. The house chicken bun was good, but i think they put way too much of the special mayo sauce. It got really sloppy quickly, and i think was too much of that mayo taste. That said, the steamed bun itself was *excellent* ... i will by buy those on their own next time! It reminded me very much of Ekiben's steams buns. Overall we were happy with the food here and would like to try it again ... maybe next time with a drink! read more

I stopped pass here over the weekend and unfortunately I have to change my review from 4 stars to 3. I ordered the Earl Grey milk tea with 3Q and it was ok, not bad but I wasn't impressed. I told the cashier I wanted more tea than milk, he said they only use half milk and half tea. I needed more tea because I was a little exhausted and I needed a little "pep" in my step. He suggested that I get less ice, which I did. It was still milky and i still didn't taste the tea, and I disliked the chunks of jelly. When I got towards the end there was a big blob of jelly, I ended up throwing the rest in the trash. The last time I ordered it, there weren't chunks of jelly, the pearls and jelly were nicely chopped. The customer service is great here, I just didn't like how he told me I have to get half tea and milk. If I'm paying for bubble tea I should be able to order my tea they way I like it, like at Kung Fu Tea. The big glob of jelly looked disgusting and it was so big the straw kept getting clogged. I'm not going to stop coming here but I'm going to give Tea Top a break for now. read more

For my first time coming here I can't say I was too impressed. I understand with Covid maybe things are a little off but I just didn't have a great drink in my opinion. I got the sun and moon lake team as a base and cheese foam with pearls as toppings. The cheese foam was a little more salty and not as sweet as I would've liked. The pearls were not too great either they felt old. And as my first time coming here I expected that maybe I would've been able to order inside. I love their system they have for Covid you need to wait outside and order ahead of time. But the big flaw is that I didn't know and it's a cold rainy day outside and I was freezing, if I had known I would've came better dressed. Maybe I didn't get a great drink to try for the first time but as a whole I didn't have a great experience my first time coming here. I might give it another shot at some point in the later future but then again I can't say I will most likely come again. Update: I couldn't do it. This doesn't taste good at all to me. I needed to throw it away. I try not to be rude about these but I really couldn't finish this. After maybe 5 sips I couldn't do it anymore. read more
