$3.50 for classic milk tea with pudding. It tasted a taaad bit powdery but I didn't mind it at all. Pretty cheap and a little bit hard to locate because there's no sign outside. Luckily was able to find it thanks to our GPS and deductive reasoning skills . It's located in a gem of a market place!! Such good cheap Asian restaurants inside. read more

LEMONY FRESH!!! IT'S THE REAL DEAL! Let's just say they don't go cheap on the LEMON! If you get a lemon tea, your taste buds will be full of LEMON! It does help with digestion that's for sure. AND it helps you stay hydrated in the HOT summertime. #coolbeans My friend let me try her SALTED CHEESE and I liked it. I will get it next time! read more

This is one of my favorite tea spots in NYC for Taiwanese tea. I have several favorites. Of course you have to try the salted cheese ! WITHOUT A DOUBT! It's like a salty sweet creamy whip cream and perhaps cream cheese concoction. Which blends really well with the tea. Now the tea his brewed STRONG, you won't find any water down tea here. The black tea they use for the salted cheese is fruity so I'm guessing it's an early grey tea and the green tea they use for the salted cheese is jasmine tea. Another favorite of mines is the Oreo Milk Tea. I have had it with bubbles and pudding and I find that it's best with their pudding. When I want to be really indulgent I tell them to add extra cream in the Oreo milk tea and you can for the Salted cheese as well. A few other honorable mentions is their kumquat lemon green tea which comes with lychee jelly and their Fresh Squeezed lemon green/black tea. read more

New bubble tea shop. New Flushing Mall. MUST...TRY...NOW. Try I did except that they ran out of the flavor that I came here for which was the Mango Lemon Slushy which I heard has real mango slices in it. That is where I docked the star. How dare you run out of your best selling bubble tea before I arrive. HOW...DARE...YOU. This place is CLEAN. Well so is the rest of the mall, for now at least. The girl that was taking the bubble tea orders and making them wore this mouth guard that straps onto your chin to prevent spit from getting into your drinks or food. I am in love. Thoughtfulness aside, The prices are standard $4.00-$5.00 per bubble tea depending on what you want in the tea and size of the bubble tea. I had to go with their second choice or rather my second choice which was the Grapefruit Lemon Slushy. Real strong lemon flavor which I liked and grapefruit jelly. There were even real grapefruit slices in the drink. What is there not to love about this. When you order they give you this little lemon shaped plastic icon with a number on it and you return it when you go pick up your order. I think just having the number on the receipt works better but this is a minor criticism. I think I found my new bubble tea spot. WIN. FAN. SLURP. read more

The green tea with salted cheese is really savory. The top part of the drink consist of foamy salted cheese. It's just on top of the green tea matcha drink. Overall, the drink is pretty savory. It's $3.95 for a medium and it's one size only. The chocolate with salted cheese is savory as sweet. The slushy texture of the chocolate tastes like cold hot cocoa. There's a cold and hot version for all the drinks in the salted cheese series. I would recommend this. read more

My dear Happy Lemon~ Before getting to the drinks, I just want to note several things that set them apart from other similar businesses... - Social media maintenance: very interactive on Facebook. They make you feel like more than just a customer, and that you're commenting on a human being, not just a biz entity. - Gift shop (or window, in this case): I love and hate this because they've been teasing us with all the goodies, but they haven't been on sale for MONTHS! Supposedly they're getting more stock, so in the mean time, you can only ogle the cute (and decent quality) souvenirs. - Spit-guard: I don't have the official term for these things, but they wear 'em around the chin area to prevent saliva flying into your beverage during preparations! How "Asia" is this~ ^_^ I've exhausted myself raving about all these things, so I'll just get to the point on one drink specifically -- the cheesey milk foam. Sooo many bubble tea joints out there offer this, and under the traditional 奶蓋 or mont-blanc section, BUT Happy Lemon has the most legit cream of all. Since Flushing lost cream tea extraordinaire, ShareTea, many moons ago, I was elated to see Happy Lemon present non-drippy fresh cream back to the neighborhood. Viva Happy Lemon! read more

Busy busy shop with the little lemon tokens as you wait. In the new Flushing food court off Roosevelt. We did a bubble milk tea without ice, and it took about 10 min for them to catch up to our order. The tea isn't sweet, and the bubbles are just a hint of sweet, so not the best for people who love the really sweet (like the old Quickly) but it's not strong tea (like some of the other teas out there). Limited menu, though they do have these random "cheese" items on their menu. And lots of lemon drinks. read more

This was also my friend's recommendation. She really likes the matcha milk foam tea, but I was pretty reluctant at first because I really dislike matcha. However, this one was pleasant and light! The concept of the tea is cute, and it's located inside a food court in Flushing. However, I'm a pretty harsh critic on milk tea, so I don't think this place is anything special. It was okay. I will need to try their other milk teas and tapioca pearls to give a more definitive answer. However, I will say that the foam isn't salty or off-putting like some other boba tea places'. I actually liked the foam and thought it provided a nice balance to the matcha tea, which was also light and smooth. read more

My new favorite tea spot in Flushing! Lines are generally long to order because it's the most popular tea stall inside the New York Mall food court, but it's worth the wait! Put your order in first and then go find your food since the drinks take a while to complete. I tried the cold handcrafted lemon black tea, which was loaded with real lemons and moderate tea after taste. The iced version only comes in large at a steep price of $5.25. It was however extremely refreshing and delicious! I also tried the cold salted cheese black tea which was interesting, but not as good since it's very frothy with less of a tea taste. Happy Lemon also offers classic drinks like milk teas, taro drinks and slushies, but I highly recommend their specialty lemon drinks. It's surely their namesake! read more

I used to come here almost everyday to drink the green tea with salted cheese or lemon tea with aloe (both I highly recommend). I came back again today (after a couple months) and was glad to see the addition of cup sizes- in the beginning there was a fixed cup size for the salted cheese series, but now they have a regular and large. I personally enjoy the salted cheese series at Happy Lemon because of its sweet and creamy taste. The tea itself has medium strength, good for any day. The lemon tea with aloe is a more refreshing type drink- while the tea is mild, the aloe and lemon present a good wake-up feel. I definitely plan to be back to try other teas again. Price range is typical, not too expensive ($4-6) read more

Located in the smaller food court in Flushing, the best boba place I've been to. This is first place I ever had boba with salted cheese. Their simple teas are so good (a bit on the sweet side) and they have the best hint of lemon. The salted cheese is the best topping with sweet and salty in a perfect harmony. It's definitely very filling (feels like it expands in your stomach), but always worth it. There are also other drinks to suit all palates. read more

Inside the New York food court! My go to drink here is the Mango Matcha Latte, which essentially is a smoothie. Now I know this place is known for its lemon on lemon flavors everywhere throughout the menu, and its salted cheese series, but I will try them sooner or later. I've always been a fan of their ordering system too, as you're given a plastic lemon number and they call it out when your drink is ready. Way better than trying to understand Chinese call outs at other bubble tea places. A high 4 stars for now until I try more of their drinks. read more

Tasty drinks! Happy Lemon is located inside the new New York Food Court in Flushing where you can also find other food stalls that are very similar to the ones in the New World Mall food court. I got the Mango lemon slushie for $4.50 and it was very refreshing! It had mango chunks in it that are reminiscent of the jelly found in aloe vera drinks. The drink also had a nice sour lemony taste that was well balanced by the sweetness of the mango taste. I also got to try a sip of my friend's green tea with rock salted cheese and I found it to be very delicious. Rock salted cheese may sound weird but it actually had a very unique taste that I enjoyed. I would recommend getting this one if you're more of the adventurous type and prefer drinks that are less sweet. Overall, very innovative and tasty drinks that definitely deserve a try! read more

This Happy Lemon is inside a huge store, and the AC is very strong there it's great! I came here on a weekend night with some friends, and there's very pleasant and clean seating shared with other food vendors there. I got the bubble milk tea without sugar and without ice, and it was very mediocre. No tea taste. Their bubbles were perfectly chewy though! Their prices include tax already so pricing was okay; most drinks around $4-5 for the medium. Would not recommend though as the tea taste is super weak! read more

Cash only and they charge tax. Tried the green tea with salted cheese with tapioca. The green tea was a bit sweet so I'll ask for less sugar next time. But the salted cheese tasted like a heavier version of the whipped foam milk which is pretty tasty. Can't wait to try the other drinks on the menu. The tapioca balls are subpar compared to gong-cha, coco etc. they're a bit on the softer side - prefer mine to be chewy. read more

Their staff members are super nice and patience when dealing with customers and willing to explain when you have questions regarding your drink. Their lemon tag is super adorable btw.

Maybe they should have named the foam on top something different than 'salted cheese' since that usually has a different flavor and does not go well with tea imo. Other than the interesting name, I do like the drinks! I was originally introduced to the foam drinks in California and was surprised to see it here. If you're not deterred from the salted cheese name, try out this drink! read more

I think I found my favorite tea spot! I loved their drink so much that I had it twice in one day! I heard about the tea with salted cheese and I had to try it. Honestly, I was pretty skeptical at first but I was not disappointed. I ordered the green tea with salted cheese ($3.50). The drink was green tea topped with a layer of the salted cheese on top. Salted cheese is a bit of a bad description. The salted cheese is more like a heavy cream with some sea salt sprinkled in. The combination is heavenly. This drink tastes like the teas with sea salt foam caps from other Asian tea chains. Not only was the drink delicious, but the logo is so cute. They give you a little plastic number on their logo, and I wish I could keep it. They also sell products with their logo on them. I will definitely be back to try more of their drinks! read more

Located in the flushing mall between mainst and skyview center. I am writing this review on my second time here since my first visit was mediocre. My first time, I had just gotten a green milk tea or something basic. It was very pricy and only took cash so I scuffled for an ATM. (I don't know why I went hard to get this drink) Anyways, my second visit was a casual stop in on a hot day, the mall wasn't blasting A/C as I had hoped, but it did provide shelter from the heat outdoors. I had the mango lemon slushii, and two words will sum up my experience. "NO REGRETS" Drink was 5$. That is all. read more

I usually get the green tea with rock salt and cheese, but the last time I got it, it wasn't sweet. So I opted for my usual green milk tea, large; $4.25. It's was perfectly sweetened and creamy without overpowering the taste of the tea. Most places that I've tried tend skimp on at least one of the 3 ingredients (sugar, milk, and tea) that it always feels like it's missing something. Like they put so much sugar and milk, that it just tastes like sweet milk. This place got the formula just right. My only complaint was that it took a really long time for them to make my drink and it wasn't even busy. There were 3 workers; one on the register and 2 in the back station, but only one was making the tea and really taking his time too. read more

I had Happy Lemon for the first time in Shanghai years ago and didn't think much of it. However, my friends were really excited about going to Happy Lemon so I thought it was about time I gave it another shot. I've always been a fan of milk foam, salted cheese, whatever you want to call it. Fortunately for me, one of Happy Lemon's signature drinks is your choice of tea with salted cheese. I ordered the classic green tea with salted cheese. It comes in one size. Instead of drinking it though a boba straw, they put a coffee lid on top. They instruct you to drink it at a 45 degree angle so you get a mix of the salted cheese and tea. It was fantastic! It's the perfect blend of milky cream and refreshing tea. It went perfectly with our dry hot pot. I don't know why Happy Lemon didn't make an impression on me earlier, but it definitely has now. I'm a fan! read more

I first had Happy Lemon after seeing all my friends post photos of it and saying it was delicious. I've tried a few drinks and all of them were pretty good. The only one I didn't like was the Salted Cheese drinks. This location in particular is fast and pleasant. It's located in the food court near Skyview mall so it's very convenient. You can order your food and grab your drink and by the time your drink is ready, so will your food be ready. This is like your typical food court in flushing. Bustling and by the time it's 12, no seats available. I usually come to this food court right before the lunch rush so I end up getting a seat, but if you do come here make sure you come early!

Not difficult: Finding decent bubble tea shops in Flushing. Difficult: Feeling excited about any of them. ALONG COMES SALTED CHEESE MILK TEA It sounds terrible but is legit delicious - Taiwan-style milk tea (choose green or black) with a layer of thick, slightly salty fresh cream on top. Apparently they use volcanic rock salt. If you're still alarmed, it has a very minor sharpness but doesn't actually taste like cheese. Unnnghhhh so good. I've had salted cream drinks at a few other tea shops and it's always fun, for those of us who like a savory kick to our desserts. I've even had this exact same drink at a Happy Lemon branch in Hong Kong. This location, inside Flushing's newest food court, makes the best version. Thanks to Linny F and her free drink coupon, plus Happy Lemon's confident marketing skills, they have won my love. Salted cheese milk tea all the way. Linny's fresh lemon green tea was actually very good, too. read more

I'm sitting here in front of happy lemon, absolutely livid. I come here almost every week because I love it and usually everyone is nice, but today a young man with glasses at the cash register named Chen took my order and so goes the last exchange I will ever have with this location WHICH IS SO SO SAD because I absolutely love the cake milk tea and cheese drinks. I asked for the cake milk tea no bubbles and no ice. When I got my drink there was ice. I took it back and asked for them to take the ice out. They made a huge deal out of it by telling me they can't and that it was MY fault because I didn't say it when I totally did (I always give the same order). I went back and forth with the girl who makes the drinks (in glasses) being completely rude and nonsensical telling me for price reasons they can't put it into another cup OR reseal it OR make me a new one. Even the woman next to us getting her drink told them off in chineese, saying "you can't do business this way just take out the ice and give her a new cup wtf" (thank you stranger lady!!) FINALLY after I started yelling (I was so so upset and disappointed bc I had been looking forward to my drink all day!!) the girl agreed to just take the ice out (and surprise) she sealed it for me too. Now tell me was that THAT HARD???!?! I'm asking for no ice bc it will make my stomach hurt just take the stupid ice out!!! Why try to escalate the situation by blaming me?!?! Unbelievable.

Located in the new Flushing Food court (New York Food Court) close to Sky View Mall, lies this lemon based drink vendor. They put a twist on the typical bubble tea type of drinks. Now I'll admit, I was never really a big fan of Lemonade or Lemon types of drinks, but this place surprisingly did a pretty good job. To be honest, the Green tea with rock salted cheese was not my cup of tea, so to speak. Other than that, the two other drinks I got are delicious. My favorite is probably the lemon slushy, which is their best selling drinks. It's a pretty good balance of tart and sweet. You can request to alter the sugar level to your taste. I personally like to reduce the sugar. The looks and feel of the place is very clean and their logo stands out. They also have a creative order/place holder type thing after you order. Not sure if I ever met the owner, but the staffs are pretty friendly. Final thoughts: I will probably try other drinks in the future. I just don't get many opportunities to eat/travel to Flushing if I'm not eating out with friends. read more

Light and refreshing fruit teas are here to stay! The honey osmanthus is like nothing I've ever had at other boba tea shops (in a good way) and stood out the most. I would totally get it again, except it is a little on the pricy end so maybe not too often. The shop itself is on a side street and quite lovely inside with lots of seating and huge windows. It was a huge reprieve to be in here away from the snow storms this year and it's a cute place to hang out while sipping on some yummy drinks.

There is a poster for $100 gift cards with a $15 bonus, think you might get an even bigger bonus if you pay with cash. The food: Honey Osmanthus Oolong Tea- The difference in price between the sizes are very minimal so just get the large. I get the large with zero sugar reg ice and this is the quintessential spring drink, it's not too sweet, it has a nice soothing floral flavor, it's not really a fancy drink but something I can picture drinking on a nice hot day. Mango Coconut Sago- I am old enough to remember this being a dessert in Flushing dessert shops but they offer it here in drink form and it works. I love that it is not over the top sweet and I love the overall flavor of this drink, the crushed ice makes for a nice refreshing drink.

Their signature fresh boba is what makes their bubble tea stand out from the rest--the "bubbles" are made from cassava starch otherwise known as tapioca pearls or balls--soaked then cooked and sweetened in a brown sugar syrup. Here they have a whole wok full of these, and they're super soft, incredibly chewy and bouncy, on the sweeter side compared to some other chains, but not too cloyingly so. Their menu consists of a number of a bubble tea and coffee drinks, mostly with milk though some without, you have an option of regular milk, lactaid milk (+$0.50) or oatmilk (+$1.00). Two sizes regular or large (+$2.00) and add-ins for +$0.50 more of the following: Brown Sugar Boba Strawberry Boba Taro Boba Honey Jelly Herbal Jelly Milk Foam Matcha Shot (+$1.00) I got their regular brown sugar boba and it was a treat! Like I mentioned above, the bubbles are sooo good! Prices are on the higher side $7.99 for a regular size, it made me really miss the days of $3.75 regular-sized drinks! After ordering it took about 7-8 minutes to be ready considering the store was really busy. Note: the brown sugar boba milk tea is where they line the cup with brown sugar syrup in addition to adding boba. Technically their standard boba milk tea is without the additional sugar syrup but since the boba are already cooked in brown sugar, there's no true option of getting unflavored boba without brown sugar. Like most boba stores in NYC, the shop isn't very big, just enough space for a small line to form for ordering and then waiting to pick up drinks. All customers are taking these to go, there's no room or seats to linger.

It leans more dessert than drink, with a really smooth mango flavor, creamy coconut, and those small sago pearls that give it a great texture without feeling too heavy. That said, it is hard to go wrong here. Everything I have tried has been well-balanced and not overly sweet, which keeps me coming back. Even with so many bubble tea spots nearby, this is one I consistently pick without overthinking it.

Even though this area of Prince Street has probably 7 or 8 different bubble tea places, I've been…read moreconsistently coming back to HeyTea. Everything I've had so far has been delicious, not too sweet, a generous portion, & actually never too long of a wait. Probably the longest was 15 minutes. All the teas in the area are $7.50 - 9 & very Jasmine green tea-focused, but I'm happy with HeyTea (M-lly Tea & Tea Sch-lar were fine. Maybe HeyTea markets their drinks better?) HeyTea drinks have good flavor, quality ingredients, and well-crafted & executed layers. Now I understand why they're so popular & glad I didn't come sooner because my habit would have been even worse. I've had these (less sweet, less ice): (all have a green tea base) - Jasmine Cloud King (the OG) - Jasmine Matcha Cloud King - Crisp Grape Boom (a bit slushy, bits of real red grape) - Mango Coconut Sago (perfect dessert, a traditional Cantonese soup dessert) Like the tiny sago boba instead of the regular size. Coconut square jellies too. No caffeine version available. - Blue Coconut Matcha Cloud Still have to try a Matcha one. The shop is a good size with a lot of waiting room. 1 table & a high counter at the front window. I've seen a small group of professionals either de-briefing or meeting over tea. But the space isn't really conducive for long-term use or work. The staff seem pretty relaxed, most are bilingual, & they seem like seasoned baristas. Proud of what they make. One suggestion /recommendation would be to move the TV screen with the order numbers to a more visible spot. It's currently against the right side wall with an overhang slightly blocking it. Maybe this angle disperses the crowd though?

The grass jelly was the second worst I have ever tasted from any bubble tea business I have ventured in my New York City foodie travels. The grass jelly was disappointedly medium and large chunky hard knotted heaped lumps. The grass jelly tasted like Greek yogurt hard chunky heaped lumps. The grass jelly topping is utter extortionate price $1.00. The 30% sugar level was a good consistently but not entirely sweet. Nevertheless, my drink contained a lot of ice as requested and served Arctic extreme cold to heed the hope within my mind. The peach was rather large chunk pieces of fresh fruit embedded. This drink was average. I requested medium size but it is truly large size especially the price $8.50. Yi Fang Taiwan Fruit Tea, like most bubble tea businesses intentionally, does not offer small sizes. Customer service is average attentive. There are two indoor benches for brief resting - no seat hibernation. Takeout menus are available for grabs.

The pudding had more of a mousse consistency than a jello consistency which is what I had originally expected and I feel like you couldn't taste the coconut as well. I'm glad however they did use fresh mango. I will probably give this place another shot when they open in Manhattan but will probably get a drink instead of a pudding next time.
