Coming in the evening, if you wanna order waffles, make sure you ask before ordering. The Boba tea with Puff Cream is good, 75% of sugar is reasonable. The atmosphere is quiet, not busy so much. read more

This place has sadly gone downhill. Customer service no longer exists and the past few workers we have encountered on different occasions have been rude. We stopped by last night about an hour before closing time and music was blasting loud as we walked in. We went straight to the kiosk to place our orders and saw that we could no longer place bubble waffle orders on here as they said "sold out." We asked the kid working if we could still order and he took a glance at that time and managed to just say "ya." He came on over to the register and took our orders, unhappy. The waffles took a bit but we were fine with waiting as we know they take some time to make. More customers walked in after us and he again gave them the same crappy attitude he gave us..... My friends and I only come here for the bubble waffles and its unfortunate that this place has some rude employees. read more

Definitely some mixed experiences here at this Chandler location. I have visited a couple of times over the past few years and noticed that depending on the day, I will have vastly different drink/boba quality and wait times. I commend the staff who seem to be holding it down solo on weekdays, but it sort of seems like they're not able to keep up with busier days (e.g. holidays like spring break), especially when they only have one person making all the drinks + the food. I wasn't in a rush this day, so I went in for my regular choice- the strawberry green tea, half sweet, with boba. I waited over 15 minutes for my drink, which was quite a wait for a boba shop on a weekday afternoon in my opinion. The drink itself, tea-wise was great like always, but I did notice this time the boba was quite hard and tasted kind of burnt in the inside. The self-service kiosk does make for an easy and simple ordering process, but on the flip side you will not interact with the staff at all really so that's something to note. read more

Happy Lemon - G5. Strawberry Green Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

My last couple visits have been bad at this location. The service is horrible now and the workers seem to not care. They have the bubble waffles marked as "sold out" on the kiosk so you have to place your order at the register with a grumpy employee.. They've also told me in the past that the cut off time for waffles is 8:30pm when they close at 9pm.. Its been empty the last few visits. read more

I'm confused about the reviews saying the customer service has gone down but also what do I know I ordered through the kiosk.

Been coming here for a while. Clean shop that pumps out refreshing drinks! Usually somewhat busy, but your orders are completed fast! On this day, decided on a mango yakult and a mango lemon slushy. Drinks were awesome and a nice way to cool down with the rising temps. Always a great way to start or end a foodie day after eating at one of the nearby restaurants. read more

Happy Lemon - Bubble Tea Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

I had a great time! I came here on a Saturday afternoon and their lemon drinks are very refreshing. Something different if you want to change it up from a normal milk, tea, Boba or a fruit drink. 3 to 4 tables inside where you can hang out. read more

My usual boba/popcorn chicken place went out of business and I've been looking for a proper replacement, and this boba tea and popcorn chicken is the best I've had in years! The barista recommended the salted plum seasoning and I'm so glad I listened, it's salty and sweet and not just only pure chili heat like so many other restaurants sell! The chicken pieces are tender and perfectly crispy. Very friendly staff, and not many tables inside but there's nice seating outside. Update: Went again and the chicken was really inconsistent, super fatty, at least the salted plum seasoning was still good. read more

Happy Lemon - Boba Milk Tea, Okinawa Roasted Milk Tea with Boba, Popcorn Chicken with Salted Plum seasoning - Bubble Tea Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

Update on the service being awful now I rarely ever complain about service but it was next level bad. I politely pointed out that they forgot to give me puff cream (which I double checked that I ordered) and I just got stank eye and attitude. Treated me like I was trying to scam them out of a dollar. They did end up giving it to me but I hateeeeeed the vibes. read more

Tried their boba milk tea before and it was meh, not a fan. However, I tried the passion fruit mango green tea today (light sugar, light ice) and it was amazing. Their snack options are surprisingly good too. The popcorn chicken was chunky and juicy, and the bubble waffle was nice and crunchy, not doughy. I feel like I'd come back for their snacks, but not really for their drinks. It was busy today, but it was quiet enough inside and the service was fast. read more

Solid option in the area! We love the puff cream boba and the cheese foam jasmine green tea. The drinks are always served quickly even if they're busy. There's a lot of seating inside as well. read more

they have waffle (we haven't tried cause we just eat dinner) but from the outside you will smell it. You can actually modify your drinks here (you can adjust your sugar level), they also have some refreshers. I also like the self order kiosk they have, as my husband is introvert he love that too. The inside was a good hangout spot. Service is also fast (or maybe it's only us when we got there) the only problem we encountered was there tables are bit dirty and sticky. Overall I will give another chance to this restaurant since you can modify drinks on your own and i want to try there waffle! read more

Upon walking in, you're hit with the most foul smell of your life. The smell of sewage crawls into your nose and refuses to leave. The drink we ordered was extremely sweet to the point that it just seemed like drinking sugar instead of milk tea. The service was poor. The person at the counter was unfriendly and rude. read more

Glad this spot is here to help combat these scorching AZ summers! Stopped by here recently for some refreshing drinks and popcorn chicken. I got the: - Lemon Yakult drink: Sweet, a little creamy/milky from the yakult - Kumquat Lemon Green Tea drink: more sour/tart than I thought it would be, but has a sweet aftertaste - Salted Plum Popcorn Chicken: Came out piping hot, the salted plum seasoning might sound odd, but it just tastes like yummy seasoned chicken haha Definitely a good spot for some refreshing drinks and a quick snack! read more

Happy Lemon - Lemon Yakult (left) and Kumquat Lemon Green Tea (right) - Bubble Tea Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

Happy Lemon is my favorite boba place back in Washington. I would frequent the Bellevue and the issaquah location 1-2 times a week so I was very excited to hear of the Chandler location opening up. The menu is sadly different and I was missing some of my favorite drinks from this location but still happy to see the bubble waffles in both flavors were available. Ordering on their portal was easy enough. Staff were friendly. Store looked clean. I ordered the milk tea with Oreo, puff cream and boba. The drink itself was good but the boba was old, soggy and broken down. I'll try again another time. read more

Went to Happy Lemon for the first time in SD and had to come here, I love their smoothie series because they're so refreshing and sweet! The matcha is very subtle for the mango smoothie, it's mostly mango. Their mango yakult reminds me of an orange dreamsicle sweetness. I have a sweet tooth, so I really like these drinks but they are on the pricier side. Their boba is also good if you like the soft chewy type. The milk tea was so-so for me, not that flavorful or sweet, but decent. There's some places to sit and a self serve kiosk at this location that helps with the line. I would mostly come here for the smoothie series and the boba :) read more

Walked in on opening day feeling like I was in Beyonce's Lemonade. Okay, maybe not, but I was happy with Happy Lemon. I have been back a couple of times since, and I can confidently say that this place is good. The drinks can be a little too sweet at times, but the sweetness level can be adjusted. You can order at the register, through the app, or at the kiosk. You can also track the process of your order on the monitor. All in all, Happy Lemon is a great addition to the ever-growing boba scene in the Phoenix area. They're located in a popular plaza, but they work fast. Get you some. read more

You won't be sour getting this lemon. Happy Lemon makes me so happy! I fell in love with this place in San Francisco and I was ecstatic when they opened up a location in Chandler. I have been here a handful of times since they have opened, and I have tried a multitude of items so far. I've had their Milk Tea with Oreo & Puff Cream, Mango Matcha Smoothie, Mango Lemon Slushie, Strawberry Shortcake, Roasted Tea with Sea Salt Cream, Ube Milk Tea with Taro Puff Cream and Boba, and popcorn chicken. There might be more, but I can't possibly remember everything. That being said, almost everything I had was amazing. Give them a try if you're at this hustlin' bustlin' shopping plaza! read more

Happy Lemon is a great spot if you're feeling for something fruity. My favorite is the Strawberry Black Tea and even at 50% sugar, it's so tasty and you have less guilt . I love the convenience of the mobile app to order so it's ready for pickup or even in the store order kiosk for those introverted folks. Service is always good and it's clean and cutely decorated inside. read more

Originally discovered this place when I went to Vegas and then found they just opened a location in AZ. Had to come check it out! Me and my husband came here and it was a bit busy when arrived but the line for self service went fast. This place has a small sitting area with about 4 tables. They also sell waffles and popcorn chicken. The boba was so good and there are many options to choose from. It's located within a small shopping center which has a grocery store and daiso right next to it. We will definitely be back for some boba when in the area and happy lemon is the place to go! read more

Refused to give water cups, we came a few times and always big group. Orders more than $100 every time. We have 4 kids with us, so we asked them for 3 waters cups for our kids, the manager with rude attitude said there no way they can give us 3 water cups. I can't believe it. By the way. We came all the way here from good year. So disappointed. read more

Arrived for opening day....regret it for the amount of time I had to wait. Never doing that again. lol Overall, my kumquat boba was refreshing! Not too sweet. I got my husband a taro drink which was also delicious. The menu has a good variety of drinks to choose from and they also have food! The waffles are delicious, fluffy, and moist. They have 3 flavors/ regular, chocolate and matcha. I'd come again when the hype has calmed down. read more

A classic chain that is known for their special waffles but don't sleep on the drinks too! I'm happy there is a location finally in Chandler where I can get the classic Happy Lemon waffle and fruity drink. If those are things you look for in a dessert, then Happy Lemon is the spot for you! read more

I've been to a few Happy Lemon locations in California so it was a fun surprise to find out they were opening a location in Az. This place is good but it's not the best and def not worth standing in a long line for. I laughed when I walked by and saw the long lines. It's not going anywhere, just wait until the hype dies down or avoid the weekend for now. Lols The fam I happened to go to Daiso next door after dinner on a Friday night. There was only one person in line so we decided to go in. The place was busy and the 4 tables they had were full. I like how there is a screen to show when your order will be ready. In the past I've had the mango or Jasmine green tea with the cheese foam and liked it. Mango matcha smoothie - I love this combo but this was ok. It was a little bland? My husband said something was missing but couldn't put his finger on what it was. Strawberry shortcake smoothie - this was delish. Tasted just like a strawberry shortcake dessert. This was for my daughters and they inhaled it. Dragonfruit - this was for my son, he liked it. A lil too tart for me but I'm not into the tarty stuff. I'd def go back if I was in that plaza already :). I need to try the ube and waffle... read more

Found out this place just opened over the weekend so stopped by today to try it. No long lines today! Only about 3 people before me so the wait to order and receiving the drinks wasn't too long. Staff was friendly and you can tell they are working hard to get the orders out as quickly as possible. The interior is was cute, simple and clean. They only have one size for drinks here. They do offer many drink options with different topping options as well, for an additional charge. Like with many places now, you can also adjust sugar and ice levels too. They have some food here but I didn't try any. Ordered: - Ube milk tea w/ taro cream puff (no boba, 1/2 sugar) - Kumquat lemon green tea w/lychee jelly (+boba, 25% sugar) Ube milk tea wasn't bad. Think I should've tried a regular milk tea first though. The other drink wasn't for me but I was told it was missing the lychee jelly. At 25% sugar, it was a bit sour too so I would recommend 50% sugar level. Bit pricy but what isn't nowadays? It was about $14-15 for the two drinks read more

Just ok. Since you use the self service kiosk to order, there is basically no staff interaction. I didn't even get a "hello" when I walked in and no one offered any assistance while I was putting in my order. The drink was good, but nothing spectacular. The store was bright and seemed very clean. read more

Happy Lemon - Bubble Tea Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

This is just based on my first visit. The place is small and just enough room for a small crowd. I have been wanting to try this place and finally did! I tried some of the popular/recommended (starred) items on the menu. I did the self order since the staff were busy making drinks. I ordered the strawberry shortcake smoothie at 50% sweetness and a mango lemon drink. While waiting you can check to see where your order is in que, which is kind of nice. I was smelling the delicious bubble waffle and wished I ordered it but was short on time. Got my drinks to go and tasted both of them right away. Strawberry shortcake tastes exactly how it sounds and the sweetness level was just right for me. The mango lemonade was yikes for me. I couldn't find the sugar level adjuster on the self order or missed it in a hurry. But the mango lemon at 100% I could only sip 2 sips. It was too strong and I didn't taste any mango whatsoever. Next time I'll try the bubble waffle and Ube smoothie. read more

Happy Lemon - Strawberry shortcake smoothie and mango and lemon - Bubble Tea Near Me - Chandler, Arizona

We have gone twice now, we are usually a fan of Happy Lemon as we used to live in Washington state where there are many. Both times walking in we were met with no one for about 6-8 min. They do have a self order screen but it wasn't very clear the first time we went. The floors are rather disgusting both times we went (like a dirty mop wiped over the whole floor and left dirt streaks) and the bathrooms were terribly gross. Also no toilet paper or paper towels at like noon when they've only been open for about an hour? Looked like they rarely cleaned them. The first time we got boba drinks they were good and we had no issues. Second time we had some problems, my husbands drink tasted rather chemically and almost spoiled? Either way we threw it out shortly after leaving since we didn't taste in until we left. Mine had really hard almost crystallized fragments of boba that felt like plastic. I didn't feel safe drinking it anymore after getting several pieces like that. So it was a bummer. I think the cleanliness ruined it for us mostly. I can't speak for what happens behind the counter or in the back room in regards to cleanliness. read more

I took the time to drive to this location before closing, and even though the hours clearly say they're open until 10pm, the lady working refused to serve me. If you stop taking customers earlier, update your hours. Don't list 10pm if you're not actually open until then. Waste of gas and my time, very disappointed! read more

This place knows how to make cheese foam. It's sweet, salty and not too thick or thin. I enjoyed it with my 50% sweet classic milk tea. This is a good boba tea shop. read more

Came in on a Saturday around 7pm and there was no line. Our cashier was very friendly and nice. The bathroom wasn't the cleanest though. I ordered the Fresh Lemon Black Tea half sweet and my brother got the Fresh Lemon Green Tea half sweet. Mine tasted like an elevated version of an Arnold Palmer, the green tea version was a lot lighter and had a stronger lemon taste. The tea flavor was pretty good and I like how they use fresh lemons instead of syrup. However, for $6 without toppings, I felt like it was pretty overpriced for what it was. I still enjoyed my drink, but I don't think I would come back very often. It's a good refreshing drink for summer, but nothing too crazy that I wouldn't be able to make something similar at home. Although the black tea quality is definitely better than your typical black tea bag. read more

Came in soon after they opened, but the place became very busy and noisy quickly. If you're planning on seeing the hype for yourself anytime soon, I recommend coming around the time they open to avoid a long line. However, they have a self-order kiosk by the register to speed things up. I ordered the Ube Milk Tea with Taro Cream Puff and Boba. I was surprised to receive so much Boba in my drink! Happy Lemon is a Boba Heaven that I plan on coming back to once the grand opening excitement calms down. read more

Came here after going to Daiso. The boba drinks with strawberry flavors are good. Regular milk tea is ok. You get $1 off bubble waffle with a drink. Ordered one that came luke warm. Was recommended to try a puff cream dip. It's gives a different flavor. It's ok. Price is ok too. read more

Overall 3.5 stars, but you can't do half star ratings with reviews. My partner and I tend to stop in when we're in the area as we do like the drinks and food. Service is on the slower side especially when they're busy. My partner and I always use the digital kiosk for our orders, but you can order directly with a cashier too. The drinks themselves are on the more expensive end for boba, but they're consistent. I would say Happy Lemon's sweetness levels are just right at 50% for their drinks. I've been to other boba shops where 50% is way too sweet for me. You can't go wrong with any of the popcorn chicken and bubble waffle flavors. The fried tofu is fine, but the tofu itself isn't marinated on the inside, so all the flavor is more concentrated on the crust on the outside. The food is made fresh so it can be hot! If we order food, our average wait time on a not so busy day is about 15 minutes. We've waited up to 30 minutes before during busier times. There's some seating indoors, but it can get cramped when it's busy. I've also felt that the tables were usually dirty whenever I've gone. Happy Lemon can be a good stop for when you start or end your shopping in the plaza, but due to slower service, you do want to take wait times into consideration if you're on a schedule. read more

One of my favorite drink franchises by far- and I'm a creature of habit: you can't go wrong with the lemon slush. Just what the Arizona heat needs- a refreshing, bright, icy, sweet but not overly sweet pick me up. Bubble waffles made fresh and had great chewy texture. Self checkout was simple to navigate, order screen was clear, and the team divvied up the orders in a timely fashion. I came here twice in one week and boy does it get crowded. But it goes quickly; def worth it! read more

The drinks were very good. I got the drinks with boba. Because the drinks are very slushy/smoothie like, it tends to harden up the boba and gives it a rougher texture. We did get a stamp card. However it does require you to purchase a large amount of drinks in order to achieve one free drink. I didn't feel like it was worth it from what they were offering. Correct me if I'm wrong, I calculated it to be about 30 drinks to earn a free drink? No complaints about the service or ambiance. The staff were very friendly and helpful when helping out customers navigate the self order kiosk. The location was very clean and comfortable to sit in. I was happy with my visit. read more

I hate giving bad reviews but here I am because I've given this place so many chances. Every single employee has the worst customer service that I've truly ever experienced. They are just flat out rude, do not communicate with you, do not speak to you or acknowledge that you're even there. Which is so unfortunate because the drinks are really good, but it makes it hard to want to give money to an establishment that is so blatantly disrespectful to its customers. I've given it multiple chances and sad to say I was a regular here for awhile thinking it would get better but it's actually going downhill so bad read more
