    A great spot with friendly service and a great product!!! I had a strawberry lemonade (non-tea) slush/smoothie (non-dairy) Parking was easy

    Grand opening line

    Fresh squeezed lemon tea, I got C4 which was the squeeze honey lemon tea. I didn't have to modify the ice or sugar levels, it wasn't too sweet tasting with the lemon. Parking is always full in the lot so had to wait for a spot. Currently they are doing a Genshin Impact Collaboration with special branded packages you can purchase for about $25. Like this place because they have bubble waffle to order along with your drink, not too many boba shops have this.

    H5. Mango Lemon Slushy

    Friendly service. Drink hit the spot. Wouldn't rush to come back, but it's nice to add this to the Rolodex of boba spots I can visit in the area

    Strawberry Lemon Slushy
    Katie C.

    I ordered a strawberry lemon slushy but I cannot do full sweetness. However, there was no option to adjust the sugar on this drink since the syrup had already been presweetened. So my drink ended up too sweet for my liking and it also gave me jitters from the sweetness & I couldn't fully enjoy it. Wish they can improve on that aspect because I like the option to change my sugar levels!

    I've always loved Happy Lemon--whether in Seattle, Taiwan, or San Diego--but the Arcadia and Alhambra locations have been such a letdown, especially when it comes to customer service. I ordered a Salted Cheese Green Tea with Double Boba and an egg waffle, and the experience was frustrating from start to finish. The first drink I got barely had any boba--just a small amount near the bottom--and a super thin layer of cream. It didn't look anything like the photos or what I've had at other locations. When I asked for more boba since I paid for double, I was told that was their standard amount, even though other locations clearly serve much more. Eventually, the lady added more boba, but then all the cream was removed, and I was told it "sank" because of the boba. I asked if they could either add the cream back or simply pour out some tea to add the cream, and while they did remake it, the lady made a point to "show me" their double boba standard--which still didn't measure up to what I've had elsewhere. This shouldn't have been such a hassle. Part of why I love Happy Lemon is the consistency and great service, but both are seriously lacking here. I hope the owner sees this and makes some changes because Happy Lemon's drinks and customer service are usually what make the brand so special. These locations don't live up to that reputation.

    Service was excellent but the drinks.... Eh Ube smoothie w egg pudding tasted different from other boba places I've been to... Taste a lot of cheese foam Strawberry Matcha was ok. Couldn't tasted the strawberry so the matcha was very strong in my tasting. Boba gets hard fast... Dragonfruit lemon slushy w lychee jello like was alright. Very lemony!

    Mango lemon slushy
    Vicky W.

    Mango makes every drink tastes better!! Don't you agree with me?! This drink is super refreshing for the hot day the sweetness and sourness is just perfectly balanced. Very nice and welcoming shop. Plenty of seats with bar section and tables. The girl behind the counter is so sweet and friendly. Mango Lemon Slushy is the one I got!! Sooooo good!! Let's go!!

    Milk Tea with Salted Cheese and Boba
    Steph C.

    Still love the milk tea with salted cheese. I get it with 0% sugar now and it is still sweet enough for me. Their boba is also bomb.com. Whenever I'm in the area I have to stop here to get my drank! Usually quick service and there's some seating inside if you want to hang out.

    I've tried a lot of different places around this area trying to find a really well made egg waffle. But that most places the batter is just not well balanced. but Happy Lemon is the only place we could find that makes the egg waffle delicious as close as it is in Hong Kong. The waffle usually takes about five minutes to make unless there are a lot of people in line ahead of you.. I recommend if you are just trying to swing by and grab it really quickly to call ahead of time and place an order so you can pick it up by the time you get there. The location in this area is pretty small and the parking lot is not that big either. But the inside of the shop is pretty nice and cutely decorated

    Matcha waffle and mango lemon slushie
    Nancy T.

    Their mango lemon slushie was 4/5. It was good, not bad. I barely tasted any mango. The lemon flavor was refreshing for a hot day. I enjoyed this drink. Their matcha waffle was also good. It was one pricey snack.

    Mango Lemon Slush

    I have acrophobia. It means that I have an abnormal fear of high places; a morbidity towards heights if you will. It sometimes crosses over towards things I'm looking forward to as well. I place them on pedestals so high that they never seem to satisfy me. Maybe I should start fearing them instead of having high hopes. Since the hopes are so high, it would only make sense for my acrophobia to be triggered, right? Anyways, I had these same high hopes for Happy Lemon. With a name like that, who wouldn't? But I'm sorry to say, I was disappointed with my first experience here. It was enough for me to probably not make it back again, sadly. The drink I got was the Mango Lemon Slush. It started off on a bad foot as I was told I couldn't reduce the sweetness level. Okay, not a big deal, I guess. The drink looked delicious to the eyes, but when I tasted it, something was a little off. There seemed to be a weird artificial aftertaste that was kind of....absinthian. Maybe that's why you can't reduce the sweetness level, since the sweetness is replaced with bitterness? Whatever the case, it was difficult to get past this taste to even finish the drink. I guess that's why they say that bitter pills are tough to swallow.

    Happy lemon/Genshin Impact Jean-Bea tea sleeve combo

    This plaza needs more parking spaces. If you can't find parking there should be some street parking near 7-11 which isn't too far of a walk. I believe Happy Lemon opened this year 2024 which took over Ding tea. This one happens to have Genshin Impact promo on Nov 15. You have to order through a person so they can give you your items before your drink. I ordered the Jean bea which has lychee jelly, boba, whipped cream, and Oreo crumbles. Combination is a bit odd but it works. Nice service, they probably need more workers to man the cash register and others to make the drinks but I came before school lets out. Thanks for the drink and Genshin items Happy Lemon!

    I was so excited to see there was a Happy Lemon opening up close to me so without any hesitation, I chose this place to satisfy my boba craving over the other million boba places around. I remembered having the yummiest ube drink at a different location so I had high hopes for their ube with puff cream drink. Sadly though, it didn't quite do it for me, the ube was very faint and the puff cream did not add much to it. Overall tasted watered down. Their boba however, is really good, it's got the perfect consistency and amount of sweetness.

    Pros: extremely veteran boba experts Cons: I don't want…read morepeople to know about this place or it'll get busy. Our go-to are the mango mango slush or strawberry slush half sweet no chamoy, royal milk tea with boba, and Peach green tea half sweet. Drinks are ALWAYS consistant and yummy. Even more, the boba is consistantly divine-- fresh, chewy, and sweet. Drinks come out quick even when it's busy. I'm always amazed how many drinks they can pump out quickly. The staff here are boba masters. Prices here are competitive/standard. Expect about $5/drink. They also have a stampcard program! Buy 8 and get 1 free. We frequent Hello Boba because it's nearby and good. Even if there's more unique places like half and half, 3 cats, and twinkle brown sugar. I prefer Hello Boba. They're just really good, consistant, and quick. Always hits the spot. Staff are generally friendly and greet you with a smile. There's this one swole asian dude who's that has a rbf. I don't think it's personal though, he's probably always sore from hitting the gym. I almost never get a smile from him-- it's just business. He shows his love in a through his consistant drinks. Which I can appreciate. I usually take my drinks to go. But there was one time me and my son hung out and played board games. They have a nice variety. But just like all other boba places, the games are usually really beat up from all the useage from previous customers. Very casual. The only downside is that this place is dangerous to my waistline. Overall good for everyone of all ages and different ethnic backgrounds. Special Shoutout to Tuan. When my wife or son wants boba, sometimes I forget what our go-to order is. Tuan knows our order. It's people like Tuan that make places like Hello Boba special.

    They have Happy Hour on Monday - Friday from 4pm to 7pm for select drinks…read more Nice boba shop with some unique drinks. Their original mojito is good if you're looking for an alcohol free version with boba. Other than that, normal boba menu. Quick service from time you order till pick up. No table sittings but they do have a bunch for you to wait.
