Shout out to the ONE guy working today at 4:00pm on a hot day. He was so calm and friendly even though he was swamped. Our drinks came out quick and refreshing. The lemon yakult is super tart even with normal sweetness which was perfect for a hot day today. Seriously give this guy a raise- he delivered excellent service. read more

Happy Lemon - E3. Lemon Yakult With Aloe H5. Mango Lemon Slushy - Bubble Tea Near Me - Sacramento, California

We like to stop by sometimes after visiting the zoo since it's close. I really enjoy their salted cheese topping added on to any milk tea I get. This time I also got a fruit tea and the even though I ordered 50% sweetness it was plenty sweet. Fair warning the cashier told me it would be sweet! But even with how sweet it was the tea tasted bitter like it was steeped too long! The service was good! I asked for a water cup for my daughter and they were really sweet to provide it with a smile! read more

Soooo lemony! [Sacramento CA] We were already in the area so we stopped by Happy Lemon before heading home. Located in the Crocker Village in Sacramento... this is my first Happy Lemon visit anywhere. Hubby was not too thrilled because they didn't have his avocado drink, I gently reminded him there was a reason they called it Happy "Lemon" I ordered the Mango Lemon slushy... the drink was nice and tart, very refreshing, energizing, tasty and tropical... never mind that it was 44° in mid December outside. The flavor was overwhelming in tartness and packed the pucker power! It came with lychee jello but I had it substituted with boba. Customer service was great. My drink was ready before I could say "whoooeeeey!" Review #3631 read more

Great drinks at this location! It is a very clean store and I received excellent service by Dalton!

Never has boba!! Been here on three different occasions and all three times I've been told OUT OF BOBA!! How does a boba shop not have boba!

We love visiting Happy Lemon to satisfy our boba and egg puff cravings. We always order the original egg puffs with salted cheese and the salted cheese milk tea with boba. No complaints with these 2 items on every visit. The strawberry milkshake with puff cream and boba was delicious as well. I do not recall the name of the other lemon tea. It was too tart for my liking. I am looking forward to my next visit. read more

First time having Happy Lemon in Sacramento! Got my usual passion fruit green tea with boba at 25% sugar and 25% ice. Unfortunately, tasted like 100% sugar. Way too sweet. Staff probably accidentally put in too much. Also ordered a strawberry milkshake. Friend enjoyed it. Very busy for a Friday afternoon. Took a bit longer for drinks to come out. Parking in the plaza can be a bit busy. read more

Service can be quite slow even though there's about 2 other customers in the store who has already ordered. Since teas (not milk teas) are usually sweeter on their own, I suggest lowering sweetness. Unfortunately, I got this same drink about 2 visits later and my tea was watered down. Almost as if the tea was not brewed long enough. A little disappointed. read more

I've been on a happy lemon streak lately! This location is the closest one to me and it's always a solid one! I always get the honey green tea with less sugar and ice. My boyfriend gets the Oreo milk tea and it's pretty good. Right now there's a special on this anime so there's frappe like drinks if you buy that combo which comes with stickers. I get the same drink every time. I've tried their milk tea drinks but it's average to me. I think their tea drinks are more of my pick. Location is usually not as busy and they are pretty fast with drinks! Decently sized as well. read more

The place has the same feel (ambiance) as all the other Happy Lemon establishments in the area, but they hire servers who aren't very bright. I've been to this location twice (normally go to the one in Elk Grove) and each time I am disappointed. The first time I ordered a large Mango Matcha, BUT hold the matcha (don't need the caffeine at the end of the day). That gal said she couldn't do it. She wouldn't know how to charge me. I said, just charge me the same as a Mango Matcha, but she said there isn't any matcha* in there. Trying to convince her it was okay, she STILL said she couldn't. I bought a lemonade. So... last night we went and ordered 3 large Strawberry Shortcakes. The guy who made it needs to brush up on his remedial math, because he couldn't multiply by 3. There was so much ice in it, that he had enough mix for 4 beverage cups. Needless to say, the Strawberry Shortcake was thick, cold, and flavorless. Whoever is hiring these kids need to ask them things like... 3 × 1/3 c. = what? OR...If a customer wants to omit an ingredient, can it be done? Geez people. read more

The closest place to get bubble tea with boba to UC Davis Cancer Center. The boba specialist do a great job helping their customers, even giving me a sample to try out some teas to ensure I like it before wasting money for something I dont like. Kudos to you Happy Lemon Employees. Pros: -They do rewards programs, so please sign up. For every 10 purchase of bubble tea, you get 1 free. :) -The lobby is clean. The aroma is fresh! Cons: -No military/veterans discount. -And no Okinawa donuts. The signage threw me off, and I ended up ordering an Okinawa Drink. :( read more

I love Happy Lemon, my favorite are the slushies with boba. This location is closest to me but the part that sucks is that they close at 8 pm even on weekends. On their website, their closing time was listed differently. I actually drive to the Elk Grove location since their service has always been great and they're open later. One time when I went at 8 pm, the door was locked. I tried several times and the workers were just staring at me trying to open the door. It wasn't until one of the remaining customers let me in and the workers told me they were closed. Pros: parking is plentiful and the workers in general are nice. The drinks come out pretty quickly so that's always a plus. Cons: the last time I was here one of the male workers at the cash register wasn't paying attention and I was waiting in line for a bit. When I came up to the register, I saw he was playing chess on his phone so he was not paying attention to anything. Even while I was ordering and paying, he continued to play his chess game. I hope he learns how to provide good customer service and how important it is. read more

I stopped in with a group of three others while in the area for work around 5pm on a Friday, as when I searched for boba near me, Happy Lemon was one of the top search results. I did not know it was a franchise until my arrival. All of us unfamiliar with the menu, we ended up ordering a large boba milk tea (D1), a medium mango lemon slushy (H5), and a medium kumquat lemon green tea with lychee jelly (E10). Price was roughly $18. I found it neat how you could adjust both the sugar and ice levels on the drinks, the options being: normal, less, half, light, and none. The staff member who took our order was polite, however on two the drinks we asked for them to be made with less sugar, and they responded both times with they couldn't for one reason or another. I wonder if that was inherently true. By far, my favorite drink was the basic boba milk tea, but it didn't have enough ice! We didn't adjust the ice level at all, and it was basically fully melted and only barely above room temp. Some of the tapioca pearls were very chewy the way I prefer, but I found some of them to be a bit hard in the middle. My second favorite drink was the kumquat lemon green tea with lychee jelly! I'm glad I didn't get it less sweet because I think it would've been too bitter, as there was certainly a bitter-citrus flavor from the kumquat, but I enjoyed it. My least favorite was the mango lemon slushy, it was way too sweet and syrupy! It was not at all worth the $6. I do want to try Happy Lemon again, as I did not try their salted cheese options, which seems to be their specialty. I would like to try their boba milk tea with puff cream or their black tea with salted cheese. read more

Not fan of the crema/cheese topping Usually go for their smoothie or yakult mixed drinks at 0% and it'll still be pretty sweet if the fruit they put in are in syrup read more

It's always so hard for me to pick a drink here at Happy Lemon because everything sounds good! TIP: come on a Wednesday to take advantage of their buy 2 get 1 free deal! I wanted the classic green tea with salted cheese but decided to try something new instead. The ube milk tea with ube puff cream and taro balls was pretty good, and the sweetness is balanced between the plain texture of the taro balls and the sweeter puff cream. But if I was going to come back, I'd stick with my usual green tea with salted cheese because it always hits the spot! We also had an Okinawa milk tea with puff cream which was pretty good, but on the sweeter side, and a mango Yakult smoothie which is a very refreshing non caffeinated option. It has mango chunks and although the Yakult causes it to separate after a while, just give it a little stir and it still tastes just as good. read more

Great location in the Sac City College/Land Park/Curtis Park area, next to Ono Hawaiian and nearby Somi Somi. I like this particular Happy Lemon because they aren't as busy as the other ones and their service is fast. I ordered 2 large drinks, customized ice and sweetness levels on both, and added mango boba and salted cheese cream to my mango green tea. Prices for a large about $6+. I got my 2 drinks and right away I noticed there wasn't any salted cheese cream. I gave it back to the staff and she politely apologized and added it to the drink. It was delicious and the mango boba pearls were refreshing. My husband loved his lemon green tea. You cant go wrong with any of their lemon drinks! Makes me happy that they found a home in this new shopping center. read more

Came here at the recommendation of a local Cali girl. Lots of people were streaming through so that's always a good sign. So many options! For our first time it was quite overwhelming. They do provide their top ten customer favs which I should've followed but my tastebuds are usually a little more simple. I was stoked to know they serve real taro and not just the sugary powder. Our drinks didn't come with boba even though we asked. So we had to go back in and ask for it again - the employee that helped us was nice. She didn't remake the drink but just took the top off and put the boba in and resealed our cups. I liked my drink, my husband wasn't a fan. Just a tip, if you really like boba order double boba cos the one scoop for .50 did not satisfy my craving. Would like to come back and try some of the cheese foam that they are known for! read more

This is the first time at this location. There's nothing fancy. You order your drink and they make it. I received it in a few minutes. I ordered two large boba milk tea with varying percentage of ice and sweetened. Overall, it's a solid drink with nice and chewy boba. It had the right amount of sweetness. The owner really needs to replace the broken toilet paper dispenser. It does not cost much to do that. Will I come here again? Definitely read more

Happy Lemon is a solid place to get your boba fix on. With a name like Happy Lemon, you'd probably expect lemon style drinks to be their specialty... and you'd be right. They have a selection of whole lemon drinks as well as other milk tea flavors. If you're a big fan of lemon, I think you'd be pretty happy here as their lemon drinks have a strong lemon punch. I definitely got my fill of lemon flavored goodness in my drink. While there are traditional milk tea flavors, one popular flavor that was missing was taro! Taro flavor is one of the staples of milk tea and is a mainstay of boba cafe menus. I really wanted a taro drink to balance out the tartness of the lemon one I got. It was nowhere to be found! I ended up getting the oreo flavor which I thought would give me a similar experience to a taro milk tea. It was creamy, but was not taro milk tea! Happy Lemon is a solid cafe for some boba, but I do wish their menu had taro on it! read more

I've been a couple of times and I have to say, I really like this place! Their drinks are a little bit different than your regular boba place, and I enjoy it! I tried their salted cheese drink the first time I was in - While good, I am not sure it's a go to drink for me as it was a dessert-y savory sweet thing. It's definitely worth a try if you haven't have before! I got the strawberry milk shake puff cream this time and it was super good! Not like a regular strawberry milk shake made with just strawberry ice cream - This had real strawberries! The hubs got a mango lemon slushy that had some kind of jelly in it... His was refreshing and good. This place was pretty good about having mask and all the customers were socially distanced - We came in and ordered and got our drinks in about 5 mins. read more

When life gives you lemons...get some boba with it! The special thing I noticed about this place is that they've discovered an amazing ingredient to incorporate into these kinds of drinks... Wait for it...SALTED CHEESE... I can't even wrap my mind around why this is so good because it doesn't make sense to me that such a thing would naturally belong in a beverage but you just have to try it for yourself. I mixed it up and got the strawberry milkshake and added the salted cheese and BOOM it was a super yummy strawberry cheesecake flavor! What better way to satisfy your thirst when its 300 degrees outside, than having a drink at this place? Happy Lemon has an incredible variety of drinks from freezes to smoothies to of course the traditional boba drinks for people of every type and taste. Try their lineup the next time you're around. Hope you enjoy it like it did. Until next time =) read more

My favorite place for lemonade frozen boba that is not too sweet and so freaking refreshing.

Boba lovers from all over Sac, let's all spiritually hold hands from 6ft and rejoice on this new find for me! So, I finally made it into Happy Lemon this week! Located on Crocker Village in Sacramento by Sacramento City College! Once again so many Boba places to choose from, especially here in Sac! And I can't lie to y'all, I really thought this place was a lemonade stand. Lmaoooo, I kid you not, I REALLY thought this whole time Happy Lemon sold different kinds of lemonade or something. I had no idea that they had boba drinks. And if my memory serves me right, I don't think they have any kind of lemonade on their menu. Yeah, it's safe to say that ya girl is always late to the party if you know what I mean lmaooo Interior: Very trendy, modern and chic interior. Clean look you know what I mean. I'm sure once you look at my pic of the order counter, self explanatory. Drinks: I will be one hundred percent honest with y'all, I am a true Dairy Ho'. Yes, I said it and you read it right! I love milk, REAL MILK. So, it should never be a shocker when you see my check-ins at Safeway for milk lmaoo. So, I ordered the Okinawa fresh milk with Boba! Omg, let me tell you, I don't know what kind of special cow they milkin' but the full cream texture of the milk, brown sugar and boba was sooooo good! It didn't taste watery or cheap, you fan taste the thickness of the milk. Thicker than my thighs thick.... Customer service: The young man working that night was very nice, my only complaint is that you should at LEAST always say hello to customers that walk in, so that they feel a sense of welcome. I was a little skeptical cause when I walked in, he didn't make eye contact with me cause he caught up with a huge order from the folks be in front of me. But when it was my turn, he was very nice. Price: I would say prices are decent and I think their prices are worth it cause they do use good quality. Especially with their dairy products! My large Okinawa fresh milk was $5.00 and it was NOT overloaded with ice. Lots of milk and Boba with the perfect amount of ice! I would highly recommend Happy Lemon to customers. I can't say much about the other drinks cause I have not tried not will I ever because I'm beyond SOLD on the Okinawa fresh milk! And it is one of their popular drinks! Be sure to stop by! read more

Service is so good! This girl who was helping us was incredibly patient with us ordering 6 drinks...especially on buy 2 get 1 drink free Wednesday! While we waited for our drinks, I did overhear her training a new employee. It seemed like she took customer service seriously by the pointers she gave, which was nice and refreshing because you often hear about the negative experiences. I got a jasmine green milk tea and the tea taste was pretty strong. I'd say 75% sweetness is perfect for someone who enjoys tea but not too sweet like a dessert sort of drink. Happy Lemon's drinks are pretty consistent and delicious, so nothing more to say there! read more

I am glad they are opening more Happy Lemons around the Sacramento area. This location seems like it is in an upcoming area and definitely glad it is ever so slightly closer to where I live. Love the quality of drinks and every location has not yet let me down. I will definitely be coming back to this location more often! Drinks I have tried at this location: 1) Strawberry milk shake puff cream -I decided to take a leap of faith and give this drink a try for the first time -I was told by the worker that the cream puff mimics beard papas, which I would say is pretty accurate and mixed well with the strawberry milk shake -The strawberry milk shake it self is way better than a "typical" milk shake you would get at say in-and-put 2) Fresh passion fruit mango green tea -I love how refreshing this drink is! Although the passion fruit seeds have a sourness to them, I love biting into them every time. -Unfortunately, you are not able to adjust the ice on this, but apparently the sweetness you can 3) Mango Yakut -Another great refreshing drink! -Perfect blend of Yakut with the mango Other recommend drinks -Strawberry oolong tea with salted cheese -Oolong tea with salted cheese -Taro Milk Shake with Boba (They use real taro and not powder! So good!) read more

Happy Lemon - Lychee dragon fruit topped with salted cheese. - Bubble Tea Near Me - Sacramento, California

I am so excited this Happy Lemon opened in the newly built Crocker Village!!!! I originally discovered this awesome chain online when I was curious about milk tea with "cheese" on top. I visited the Sheldon Road location and was hooked - the cheese topping is better than it sounds: Soft whipped sweet cream cheese with a little hint of Himalayan salt. It is layered on top of your drink like a cloud of sweetness. Already completely addicted to milk tea, I literally raced to this new addition to get my "boba" on. The staff was efficient and friendly, and i ordered a salty cheese black tea, and added boba (naturally) with the help of a super nice manager. The menu is fairly self explanatory but I had a special request. My drink was amazing! Tea to cream ratio is perfect, and chewy soft boba balls made it complete. Please note they offer a variety of options, including the famous "lemon tea" where they use real fresh lemons in every order, traditional and flavored milk teas, slushies and a delicious, light cheesecake with salty sweet cream drizzled on top. To. Die. For. As I chatted with the manager she explained the technique they use to ensure the fresh brewed tea is not bitter but smooth. All drinks are made to order. She was such a sweetheart and even reccomended some new drinks for me to try the next time I pop in. The store sits across the parking lot from (also fairly new) Safeway, next to a burger place and is shiny and new. Menu boards and yellow and white tile decorate the place. Five stars across the board! read more
