    These both were so delicious! Can't go wrong with either one!

    Been some time since I've been here. Service was excellent!!! Absolutely LOVE their drinks even on a cold day! Bubble waffles are always fun to munch on! This place is one that my teen and I enjoy. Family wished they opened a little earlier!

    This is Cold milk tea with boba & puff cream and I added a tiramisu salted cheese on top

    The service is usually nice and helpful. Drinks are typically good most times. Bubble waffles are always good. The inside is spacious and clean every time I go in

    Passionfruit lemon oolong tea as shown on menu.

    This HL is just so inconsistent on both drinks & service that I don't think I'll be stopping in anymore. Ordered the passionfruit lemon oolong tea a few weeks back. it was good and looked as it does on the menu. so I came back to get one again a week or so later. The employee handed me a drink that had milk in it. So I pointed out that it's not the right drink, very politely and patiently and she told me "it is, this one has milk in it". I had to point at the picture of the drink behind her on the menu to get her to believe it definitely does not have milk in it. So she made it again, this time with barely any passionfruit - literally like 1/2 a teaspoon worth - and no boba. So i asked her to fix it again since it was missing the boba and got some attitude and a bit of an eyeroll. So the drink I got the third attempt (she took the seal off the same drink to add boba) had a laughably small # of boba, like 5 of them and suddenly tasted like she added a ton of extra lemon to make it super sour and gross. I literally couldn't drink it because it tasted like eating a raw lemon. I can't be 100% sure but I felt that she made a bad drink on purpose because I (rightly) asked for her to fix it twice. I wasnt gonna try for a 4th remake at this point, so I just gave up and left. My husband got the same drink today, and again It's got very little tea and basically no passionfruit in it (see picture). I've noticed in the past some of their staff (not all! Most are very sweet & helpful) seem to have poor presence and give that GenZ stare/look at you like you're weird and annoying for coming in to buy a drink, but I generally don't get hung up in n that as long as the drinks are ok. However the weird vibe + inconsistent drinks, or possibly even sabotaged drinks, sorry, no more.

    I'm making this review to hopefully incite change. Over the last year we've SO enjoyed our family trips to happy lemon for delicious bubble tea and waffles. But over the last couple of months this place has gone to crap. From the busted glass door that hasn't been repaired, to them being consistently out of some of their supplies. Walking in 45 minutes before close time one evening and they had NOTHING and were rude, obviously our business was inconvenient to them. The writing on the windows used to be cute now it's just all about how they refuse to take cash. PLEASE! We want our GOOD happy lemon back. Do BETTER.

    First time there review! Employees were super friendly when I walked in. I'm not really a fan of boba (I know, I know) but the girl at the counter helped me pick a drink and let me know I could take the boba out of any drink I choose. Ended up getting the Freshly Squeezed Lemon Black Tea which is super good! I opted for 1/2 ice and for a first I wish I would've gotten regular ice! In addition to my drink I got a chocolate bubble waffle which was really good, and big enough to share as I shared mine with my husband! I tried to Tiramisu Salted Cheese to dip in the bubble waffle and I'll just say I tried it and wasn't a fan! but they have other options for the waffles! Establishment was clean and I got my order in about 5 minutes. Only reason why it was 4 star is because I'm not sure if this would be an everyday stop for me, but maybe a nice treat on a hot day every once in a while. That being said, I will be back to try something else! If you do like boba, give this place a shot!

    I was hestitate on this location due to its Yelp reviews but it was still pretty good! The young ladies working were so friendly and welcoming. I ordered my usual black tea with salted creama, taro milk tea w/boba & bubble waffle. All were amazing and drinks were made well.. boba was so soft and fresh. I took a star off because the tables and booths were kind of grimey and could use some cleaning and also wish they took cash but overall it's a legit location.

    The kids loved the bubble waffle. The drinks were ok. The salted cheese dip for the waffle was good too.

    Cute place! Was visiting my friend for July 4th and I wanted to hang out with them for the morning…read morebefore heading back to West Seattle. It was packed inside but we were seated fairly quickly. All the staff we encounter were really nice. I had originally wanted to stop by for a Bloody Mary but also ended up ordering a mini mess haul. I ate a little less than half and took the rest home. The waffle was smothered in a sausage gravy that was a bit bland for me but hot sauce helped. This place remained busy the whole time we were here. Which I take as a good sign. The Bloody Mary I ordered was so yummy. Definitely need the salt that morning haha.

    Was down the street and my 4 year old wanted waffles. Was expecting to order at a counter and have…read morea number called. We were pleasantly surprised when we were seated with a smile and friendly service even though they closed in half an hour. I didn't feel rushed, but also didn't want anyone to need to stay late on our behalf. I ordered the Nashville Hot chicken. Temperature wise it was very hot. Spice was pretty mild in my opinion. Waffle was okay. Seemed like everything had been premade and frozen maybe. My daughter had the kids strawberry and whipped cream waffle and it was decent. The service was excellent and the food was okay. I'd probably only go back if I was 5 minutes away and the kid's wanted waffles.
