    G5. Strawberry Green Tea
    Francheska J.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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!

    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 :)

    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.

    Opening day. The line moved fast.

    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!

    Very cute place! I had the Yakult green tea, and it was excellent! Great customer service. They also had a kiosk that you could order from if you were not interested in interacting with people. I'd really like to go back and try the bubble waffles

So far I've tried the oolong roasted milk tea and the classic milk tea. For toppings, I've tried regular boba and sago. While the oolong roasted milk tea was good, I didn't really notice the roasted oolong flavor. The boba was a good texture, just the right amount of chewy. I'm glad I gave this place a try, it really surprised me! They have a wide variety of drinks other than milk tea, like slushes, coffee, smoothies, tea, matcha, etc. They also have some snacks like popcorn chicken, fries, croffles, etc. Polba Tea is located in the same plaza as Fry's, along with many other stores. There is a big parking lot but it can get busy. Good customer service!

Polba Tea's strawberry matcha with boba hits the spot everytime. The sweetness is customizable and I usually opt for 50% which is still sweet enough for my taste. I also enjoy their cheese fries, which is powdered cheese and the fried tofu. Both make for great snacks and the portions are generous enough to share or a meal for one. Service is fast and friendly. The space has a chill and welcoming vibe.

That said, I also understand this is a boba shop first, so I wasn't expecting the matcha to be absolutely immaculate or prepared like a specialty matcha café. On the positive side, the boba was actually really good -- chewy, fresh, and had a great texture. The Lychee Seasons Tea was refreshing and enjoyable, especially if you like fruity drinks. Overall, I'd come back for their tea drinks and boba. If you're a matcha purist, the roasted matcha may not be the standout item on the menu, but the shop still delivered a solid boba experience.

    Discovered this new little spot online and definitely enjoyed!…read moreThe menu has a good amount of options and I was feeling like trying their soft serve as well as their Matcha tea so I opted for a drink that had both! They don't have a ton of milk options if you're looking for skim or non-fat, but the options were either the whole milk or oat milk I believe. There was only one girl working the counter as well as the kitchen, but our drinks came out super quick despite there being a good handful of people! The Uji matcha with the soft serve had that nice smooth flavor with a slight bitterness at the end definitely had a strong matcha taste. I didn't have expectations for the mango sparkling water but wow, was it good! The mango really came through and did not have an artificial taste whatsoever. It was one of the most refreshing drinks I've had and something I would definitely order again!

Our favorite item was the warabimochi sundae, it was not too sweet or bitter; very light and refreshing with lots of complimenting textures. Their soft serve isn't too creamy, and the matcha wasn't too strong. Sometimes if matcha is too strong, I end up feeling unwell afterwards, but there was none of that from this place! The other two items were good, but nothing outstanding. Overall, service was fast and friendly. The shop may look quaint from the outside but there are plenty of indoor seating options.
