Monster Tea 1066 Rockville Pike, Rockville, MD 20852

"A tasty treat when you are out in Rockville! Monster Tea is quite different from other bubble tea chains like Kung Fu Tea, which is refreshing to me. I've stuck with both more traditional (taro milk) teas and also some of the more adventurous ones, like the matcha rose latte. I would caution that you may want to tone down the sugar at ordering to 50% or 0% sugar. Otherwise, it might be a little TOO sweet for you. Drinks are a little pricier, $5.15-5.75 before boba or jelly, but I think it's worth the price."

"I went to Pike Kitchen for the first time, excited to order the Strawberry Rose Jasmine Tea, the image of the drink on the menu showed Boba and jelly toppings on the top of the drink for $6.45. I got my drink and it only had strawberry pieces inside. For that price I assumed it would look like the image that is displayed on the menu, however they told me that you would need to have the toppings charged extra. Why would you display the drink with toppings like that on the menu if they do not arrive with toppings? That is 100% misleading."

"Decent Bubble tea with innovative flavors. It sits inside Pike Kitchen which is similar to a food hall."

"Worst boba tea place in Rockville in 2021. Everything is artificial, fillered with tea, and expensive compared to so many dozens of boba tea places in this city. I asked for milk tea and they said its non-dairy powder with powdered flavoring. I can barely taste the tea and creamy milk when all i taste is water and sugar. Costed around $8 for a large and $6 for a small. They claim the cakes are fresh but i saw them pull it out of a pre-made frozen aisle box. Plus many of their menu items are not in stock, from bread to pastries to matcha ice cream. On the upside, they got good brown sugar pearl milk and mango-peach tea. But thats all."

"Would not recommend the bubble tea here. We got a Matcha Rose Latte with bubbles and a Taro-Coco Bomb Milk Tea with lychee jelly. The Matcha Rose was simply terrible, very bitter with a dry aftertaste. It was very obvious that the flavoring was artificial, and not even a good artificial flavor. I actually threw this one away instead of finishing it, and I do not like to waste food. The Taro-Coco was better, but nothing special and not worth the price. It was more taro than coconut and it seemed like they used coconut water instead of coconut milk. The only reason I gave 2 stars is because the toppings were delicious. Maybe the ice creams are better than the bubble teas, but I will never get bubble tea here again."
