Boba Shops in Washington

The Washington, D.C. bubble tea scene extends well beyond the district itself, and this list includes nearby Maryland communities like Bethesda and Silver Spring along with Virginia communities like Arlington and Alexandria - all part of the same D.C. metro area, which is why some shops here show a Maryland or Virginia address instead of "Washington." Rockville and the broader Route 355 corridor in Maryland, along with Arlington's Clarendon and Ballston neighborhoods in Virginia, are particularly strong for boba given their large Asian-American populations. If you commute across the district line for work, there's a good chance your favorite shop is a Metro ride away rather than a walk. Browse the listings below and filter by rating or tags to find a bubble tea shop anywhere in the D.C. area.
