I've been here a couple times but drinks are solid and waffle is delicious! We usually order online and it's ready by the time we get there. I've tried the Oreo and brown sugar milk tea and both solid, the boba there is a bit hard when you go late at light. Waffles are made fresh and warm can share with another person in one sitting. Overall fast service and decent tea. read more

i've been to this location a couple of times now to order an original bubble waffle and the passionfruit green tea with lychee, and it's always very delicious. the waffle comes out with super crispy edges, though i do wish it could be cooked a little more in the middle of the bubbles, since they sometimes seem a bit undercooked. the drinks have always been super refreshing though. i also came for their genshin collab a while back and was really impressed by both the drinks and the merch that was available at the time. it was a really fun little pop-up experience. i do wish there was seating inside, but it's more of a grab-and-go kind of place. there is plenty of seating outside though, which helps. the workers have mostly been very nice in my experience, though the last time i went they seemed a little overwhelmed and were a bit curt as a result. i don't fault them too much for it though, since there was a bit of a line that afternoon. all in all, it's a nice stop for a little sweet treat :) read more

This is a really neat drink shop. I love the look inside and the different options to choose from. However, I was a little bummed they didn't have lemonade only options. I also wished there was seating inside the drink shop to sit down and enjoy my yummy bubble waffle. The staff was super sweet and helped explain everything to me since it was my first visit. Overall, a fun experience! read more

Happy Lemon - Bubble J1. Original Waffle, H3. Strawberry Lemon Slushy with Lychee Jello, and D7. Dark Brown Sugar Boba Milk Tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Tustin, California

I in the Irvine Market area and stopped by Happy Lemon and it ended up being more than just a typical boba run. While it's an up-and-coming chain, there's several locations, this location really stands out for its personality and little details that made the boba shop a bit different! First off, the drinks are solid--fresh, fruity drink, and exactly what you'd hope for when you're craving something refreshing. They have some surprisingly cool merch that actually feels thoughtfully designed (not just your usual branded stuff you'd ignore). The highlight, though, is their "positivity message" concept. You can decorate your cup or even a notebook with uplifting notes, which adds a really personal and feel-good touch. It's such a simple idea, but it genuinely makes the visit more memorable and gives the place a welcoming, community vibe. I probably hung out a good 15 minutes looking for the perfect message!!! Hahaha There were ample tables outside to drink and people watch. read more

I love how there's a kiosk at this location so it's really quick and easy to order. There was no line so we got our drinks within a few minutes. I got the mango matcha smoothie which is very nostalgic for me since this was a drink that I would get all the time when I was in high school. They are pretty consistent with this drink here. There's no seating inside so this more of a grab and go spot. read more

Happy Lemon - F1. Mango Matcha Smoothie - Bubble Tea Near Me - Tustin, California

They have one of the best Hong Kong style egg waffles that I've had in So Cal - as far as I'm concerned, the best ones outside of Asia can only be found in Vancouver or Toronto - but in OC, these are as good as you can find. They have that distinct eggy taste and are not overly sweet. The shell is crispy and crunchy while the inside is airy and soft. To pair up your delicious bubble waffle with a drink, the classic milk teas are always good. Their freshly squeezed lemon ice tea is one of the best and has a rather intense lemony flavor. Another one of my favorites is passion fruit mango green iced tea which is both refreshing and tasty. read more

I really wanted to try the egg waffle so we stopped by this Marketplace location. The egg waffle is freshly made and we knew it was authentic as they have a fan to cool it off. The store was also giving away free tumblers on the day we visited and we picked up two! Great customer service and experience. Please come and create your own adventure. read more

After a less than desirable experience at Bengong Tea, I popped in right before closing and there was one person working. I said "Hello" and ordered the green tea with cheese foam ($6.50). I paid and he got straight to work on my order. I forgot to mention that I wanted less sugar and less ice but oh well. My husband asked for the code to the restroom and went to wash his hands. My order was ready straightaway and I made the mistake of shaking without checking that the lid had an open hole. Oops. I quickly wiped the counter and grabbed a straw to stir my drink. I took a sip and it was good albeit a little sweeter than I would have preferred. Thanks Happy Lemon for such great customer service unlike their competitor across the street. read more

Happy they have one in Tustin/irvine...I ordered a lemon tea with less sweet and ice and a boba milk and a bubble waffles. The lemon tea has a little artificial taste of it (not sure what it is; supposed to be just lemon and tea)..the bubble waffles was good (crispy outside and soft inside). read more

Stopped in because we were looking for another drink shop that once was located here and decided to give this place a try. Sadly my drink tasted like ice flavored watered down coffee. I was not impressed. The workers were a little impatient as we have never been here and weren't sure what to order. There are boba drinks, teas and coffees. Worth a try to check out . I was going to try their tarp tea but made the wrong choice. Will try back again when I am In the area. Stop in and check it out for yourself! read more

The black milk tea is fairly good, but they are on the sweeter side. I adjusted my drink to 50% sweetness but because the boba itself is also very sweet, I feel like it was still too sugary. The boba was also a bit tougher than other places but overall not too bad. Parking was fairly easy and the customer service was good! read more

Their sea salt cream is perfect on top of any drink. You should give it a try. Staffs were very friendly. This spot gets really busy so there will be a bit of a wait. read more

Great stop! They were very patient with my many questions on their new coffee options. A great quick stop for this shopping center, especially with how good the drinks are, I already ate but I'm definitely picking up one of the waffles next time, they make the store smell delicious! Look at how beautiful my Americano looks read more

Good location with plenty of parking. We were in and out quickly. The cheese foam does not disappoint!

I've been a customer on and off for a while and have never really had a problem here, but recently the taste and quality of the drinks is abysmal. The seasonal strawberry oolong milk tea was really weird, but I was thinking it was just bad because it wasn't my taste. I got a very normal jasmine milk tea with boba today and... I don't know, my first sip tasted strongly of chemicals, and there were bits of... something(?) that was definitely neither the boba nor possible tea leaves. I might give this place another try but after this, I'm really not sure. read more

Soo goood. I love their bubble waffles with seafood salt cream cheese. I always want to eat this.. because its so good when itd warm . I also always get the cheese foam salted cheese with green tea and mango topping. Recently I got the Hazelnut Ferrero rocher Frappe drinks and thry were good!!! They had gold sprinkles on top with a Ferrero Rocher Chocolate . Love happy lemon so muchhhh. The staff is always so friendly and the interior is so clean and fresh . Service is always wonderful as well..the environment is so modern and clean. read more

i was really excited when i learned that there was a happy lemon in the tustin marketplace! i was unaware since it was hidden at the corner. my go to drink is always the mango matcha but i saw they had a special promotion for mango sago! ultimately, i decided to get that with 70% sweetness. sadly, the drink was wayyyy too sweet and makes me wonder if they adjusted the sweetness level at all :( i had to add extra ice and water when i got home. either than that, the cashiers are very friendly and the facility is very clean. overall, i would come back! i love their mango matcha. read more

Happy Lemon - Tustin So good!! Every time I stop by this location, the drinks are consistently fresh and flavorful. The store is always clean, and the team is friendly even when it's busy.

Definitely one of my favorite stops in Tustin for something refreshing! read more

I like coming to this Happy Lemon location in Tustin. The drinks here are made consistently fresh, and the service is always friendly, warm and efficient. I like to get one of their top menu items, the Classic Salted Cheese Jasmine Green Tea. I like the ccombinations of the flavors and the balance of the light floral tea with their signature salted cheese foam is deliious. I've also noticed the staff here move quickly even during rush hours, and they're always patient when you're deciding between flavors. It makes the whole visit feel easy and pleasant. read more

Happy Lemon - Bubble waffle with strawberry tea - Bubble Tea Near Me - Tustin, California

Found it on Yelp & no regret. We ordered multiple type of drinks (Boba Milk Tea, Strawberry Green Tea, Mango Green Tea, and a purple smoothy with boba ... forgot the name). Forgot to ask for no caffeine on one drink and we were wired for a while. Lots of fun when it's after 11:00pm and cannot sleep. Highly recommend for AM consuming. One thing I really appreciated was that they asked about the amount of ice and sweet levels. Ohhh and because it's holiday season, when you purchase a gift card, it's in a reduced price depending on the amount. One last thing is that everyone was friendly and helpful as we were trying to figure out our order. read more

Happy Lemon - Ordered to go! - Bubble Tea Near Me - Tustin, California

The store was empty except for one worker when we went in. We opened the door and were not acknowledged, but there was a sign on the counter that said to order at the kiosk. There was very minimal interaction, but the drinks were done quickly. There are no tables inside, but there is a good amount of outdoor seating available. The drinks themselves were less than what we had hoped for. The passionfruit mango green tea had a mild mango flavor but was ultimately kind of bland. The boba also seemed overcooked based on the texture. The strawberry green tea had a generous amount of strawberry in it, but the rest of the tea flavor was hard to distinguish. The drinks were not worth their $7 (each) price based on the quality of the teas. It could've been what we decided to order, but in a city where there are countless boba shops, there are definitely other places that I would choose before this one. read more

The drinks here will certainly quench your thirst! I personally love all their lemon squeeze menu with green tea or black tea - adding that cream cheese foam makes it yummy. The staffs are spectacular, my wife ordered here a few days ago, and they got the order wrong, BUT they were quick to replace it and make it right. Love the accountability. As for the ambiance, no seats inside BUT there are plenty of seat outside to chill. Overall, love this place! read more

Steep Thoughts: Florence's Quest for (Her) Perfect Black Milk Tea Black milk tea: 0.5/2. I got the Classic Milk Tea, half ice, half sweet. This black milk tea was very meh to me. Mild caramel-y flavor but somewhat watery without the depth and complexity I expect from a great black milk tea, although it was appropriately sweet for what I requested. Other drinks: 0.5/1. Typical variety of milk teas vs fruity teas, as well as some smoothie and slushy options. The prices here seem high for what you get, although that might be a side effect of being in the Market Place. Ambiance: 1/1. Cute decor, as is the case with all happylemon locations. No indoor seating, but there is outdoor seating shared with surrounding restaurants. Plenty of parking. Service: 1/1. Order at the counter. Drinks came out quickly. Total: 3/5 read more

First time here, and I order the strawberry black tea not bad. They do have a variety of drinks on their menu. Don't even get me started on the service - dropped waffles, no number calls, and a whole lot of waiting. Pro tip: get the waffle and take it to Dairy Queen. Trust me, it's a matcha made in heaven. Until then, I'll say it's a solid 1/10. Would not recommend, unless you're into flavorless drinks and disappointment. read more

Happy Lemon just opened in Tustin and we had to check it out! It was the grand opening weekend, so there was a line (about 10 people when I arrived, closer to 20 by the time I left) but it moved pretty quickly considering there was only one cashier. Even with the crowd, the line moved quickly and we got my drinks in around 7 minutes after ordering, which was impressive. We tried the mango green tea and the taro ube milk tea. They were delicious! Exactly what we expect from Happy Lemon - flavorful and refreshing. At $6.50+, they're a bit on the expensive side, though that seems to be the standard price these days. The BOGO deal for opening weekend brought them down to a much more reasonable $3, which is what boba should cost in my opinion. The staff were friendly considering how hectic it was. The place is small, and with the grand opening rush, things were definitely a bit crazy. They weren't able to customize sweetness levels for drinks during the rush, but luckily mine wasn't overly sweet anyway. Overall, Happy Lemon Tustin is a great addition to the area! read more

Happy Lemon! Welcome to Tustin! This location took over the old Starbucks next to DQ/Which Which/Nektar in the Tustin marketplace (honestly a good trade-off, as the starbucks moved accross the street to the drive thru where carls jr was) Grand Opening was run swiftly like a navy ship, thanks so much to the crew for getting out all of the drinks quickly while everything was BOGO! There is not much of a crowd thus far around 12pm, far less than I was expecting for grand opening, so those of you who love boba--this final weekend of June is now ur chance! Got the passionfruit mango green tea at 50% sweet and it's tart and delish, got the lemon slushy for my little bro. read more

Quick and easy ordering. Customizability. Strong tea flavor. I'm not sure why there are so many negative reviews.

if you're a milk tea lover and a Genshin Impact fan, you have to check out Happy Lemon's collaboration event! The drinks are amazing: The Tea-ppuccino with Pink Cream and Pop Rocks is a fruity and floral delight with chewy pearls and jelly--so fun and refreshing! The Tea-ppuccino with Sky Cream and Oreos is equally delicious, with a creamy, dreamy twist and crunchy Oreo topping. The themed decor featuring Klee and Jean is super cute, and the exclusive merch like DoDoCo sleeves and stickers is a bonus for fans. and the service is good here as well. Great drinks, great vibes--this is a must-visit for tea lovers and gamers alike! read more
