We were glad to have a Happy Lemon down the street from us! We even walked here since it was so close by.So many of their drinks are super refreshing, and they do have hot options, too! I feel like the menu is slowly growing since they now have popcorn chicken. I'm not sure if they have popcorn chicken at all locations, but they have it at this location, and they have multiple flavors, which is really convenient.Service is always great, and workers are super friendly. If you have questions about any of the drinks or toppings, you can always ask! Most of the time we're here, there are only 2-3 people working, so there are times when drinks may take a bit if you're waiting for them. There's also an app where you can order online and earn points! I suggest using the app to order ahead if you don't want to wait.My go-to drinks are the Matcha Latte with Tiramisu Salted Cheese Cold, Milk Tea with Oreo and Tiramisu Salted Cheese, Boba Milk Tea with Puff Cream, Okinawa Sugar with Fresh Milk Boba, and the Mango Matcha. All are great! I've even had some as hot drinks and they're great hot too!We've also had the waffles and popcorn chicken and they're really good! It just takes a little longer to make it so you'll have to wait. My favorite waffle flavors are chocolate and Oreo. For the popcorn chicken, I tried the Paprika Spicy and I wasn't a fan. I'll probably try the original next time.We'll continue coming back for sure!

This location is actually the most convenient to me since I'm in the shopping center often, but I rarely come to this one. The parking right near the shop is limited and usually taken by the other businesses. It's pretty lucky to find parking right in front, unless it's a very slow day. This time around, I ordered ahead of time to get my drinks/waffle faster. My order included the usual milk tea with sea salt cream and lychee jelly, a chocolate waffle and something for the bf. When I got there, my drinks weren't quite ready, but it wasn't too much of a wait. Service isn't the friendliest, but nothing to complain about. The shop has a good amount of space for people to hang out and chat after getting drinks. It's usually pretty quiet, at least on the handful of times I've been there. 1 star off is for my drink - for some reason, this location has always been a little off with the drink I've ordered. Even though I (usually) order the exact same drink at several locations, this one is always inconsistent with it's sweetness level. Most of the time, it's less sweet than expected while once in a while, it's way too sweet. I'm sure there's a formula for it, but it's never quite the same. The chocolate waffle was good and no complaints for the other drink.

I ordered the black tea with salted cheese 25 percent sweetness. Love their salted cheese, really good flavor of savory and a hint of salt. One of the best salted cheese out there imo.Their black tea was pretty good. It had a nice flavor, not watered down today compared to other boba shop. I noticed their tea tastes different from day to day. Sometimes it's water down sometimes it's strong. But their salted cheese has been consistent every visit. I think this location is a lot better than the other locations I been to in the Bay Area.

Just here to rave about the matcha bubble waffles and the puff cream--absolute perfection! Crispy, flavorful, and just the right amount of sweetness. That's all.

I've been here multiple times and I think this is my favorite happy lemon location in the South Bay. The staff is always so helpful and friendly.My go to drink is the Green Tea with Salted Cheese; I remember the first time I tried salted cheese i though it was so weird but i've grown to love it and it's one of my favorite drinks. The Tiramisu Salted Cheese is also really good, I usually get it with the oreo milk tea.

I wish the male behind the counter would have said I had BRF (biccchie resting face) to my face and not behind my back... I'd have told him, "why, yes....yes, I do suffer from BRF". Evidently he didn't see my son sitting waiting for the order and heard/saw the comments. Q- To the male Associate working on 7/9/24 @2:57p - Why are you working with people?Suggestion (if you want to work in customer service) Wait til customers are gone before trash talking them. BRF sufferer.

Happy Lemon is a boba tea chain that serves waffles and Korean fried chicken. They have a variety of fruit and milk teas with salted cheese and combo options. It's located in a complex with lot parking and has a few tables for small group or individual indoor seating. The waffles were a bit of a wait and they ran out of fried chicken, but the drinks came out relatively quickly and were priced reasonably for the area. The bubble waffles tasted great - they were a good amount of sweet and fluffy. There's not much of a difference between the original waffle and the oreo waffle other than the texture (the oreo one had hard chunks where there was oreo pieces). I wouldn't recommend the puff creams - they were $1 each and didn't taste great (kind of like sour milk). However, the mango boba green tea was refreshing and had the perfect amount of sweet mango flavor. The ratio of boba to drink was good and the mango boba was the right texture - I'd rate it a 9/10.I'd recommend this place as a post-work treat to either pick up or dine-in with a friend or 2.

Honestly the most reliable place to get a salted cheese drink. It's so so good every single time and even the next day. Honestly just a perfect blend of sweet and savory. Also tried my friend's Strawberry Shortcake Drink with Lychee. Really really tasty and tasted like a drinkable dessert. Great mix of fruit and creaminess but definitely on the more expensive side (especially since lychee was added). Never saw this drink at other locations so if you come here definitely check it out! Overall, I've only been to this location once and have no complaints! The drinks were super good and service was quick. There are only a few tables but this is more of a grab and go location. Some tables had crumbs so cleanliness isn't the greatest if you're thinking to dine-in.

I never so much noticed this location in the busy San Jose Marketcenter, but I stopped by recently for the first time and had a relatively pleasant experience. I've noticed every Happy Lemon I visit seems to have a habit of ordering way too many business supplies--so much so that the boxes are out in plain view of customers. Not a bad thing, but not the kind of spot that will win awards for aesthetically pleasing pictures.My general opinion of Happy Lemon boba is that the milk teas are pretty good. Quality control is consistent across locations, and as someone that is a boba traditionalist (not interested in the salty cheese, new school offerings) their basic menu has my approval. This location isn't the biggest store, doesn't have the fanciest marketing posters, but serves good boba at a good pace. I usually like to get the Okinawa milk tea with boba, but this time I got the fresh passion fruit mango green tea with crystal boba. I wouldn't personally go for mango but I have nothing bad to say about the drink I got.

Decent Happy Lemon location!Ordered my usual passion fruit green tea with boba. I appreciate the staff that day making the drinks actually mix it before pouring it in to the cup. It is usually 50:50 for staff at most Happy Lemon locations to pour everything into the cup and shake it after it is sealed, but you can definitely taste the difference if it is mixed beforehand.Boba here cooked well too.Parking can be tight in the direct lot. Otherwise, adjacent lot should be free.
