This is my first time being in Alameda, California 94501. The drink was good. And the person who greet me and my boyfriend was nice to us. The wait wasn’t that long not to me. I like the music that they played. I ordered strawberry matcha latte with no ice due to me wearing braces. And I order strawberry shortcake for my boyfriend. And we both love it a lot. Overall it’s an A+

I never had salted cheese milk tea until I went to Happy Lemon. I was happy to know that they were opening a Happy Lemon in Alameda. I also like to buy their bubble waffles. The place has good quality milk teas and my kids highly recommend their snacks.

Happy Lemon is a small but very nice boba Cafe, I go once in awhile for the refreshing Fruit Teas. Also another big hit is their boba is actually chewy..you have to go!

This is not your typical boba tea joint. Happy Lemon's drinks taste very fresh! They offer a vast selection with numerous ways to customize to your liking. If you're new, I highly recommend the black tea salted cheese! And if you dig it, then branch out to whatever fancies your taste!

This is the second Happy Lemon I've been to, the first being in Gilroy. What I think is really cool is that there is a screen here with the list of drinks being made, who's making it, and how long it's been since the drink was ordered. There's a random set of stairs. The drinks were very good but also fairly limited compared to other boba places. Make sure to try the salted cheese drinks.

Easy to get to? Yep! Lots of parking nearby etc. We’re the staff nice? Very nice How was the price? A bit pricy, but overall pretty good Anything worthwhile near? Tons of fun restaurants and stores nearby Was it fun/did it taste good? SO GOOD! I love boba and the bubble waffle was perfect! Is it safe to go during COVID? As long as you wear a mask, all of the people making the food were wearing masks How was it overall? Five stars! Has: 🚻♿🚰🍔🎼🌡📱 Doesn’t Have: ℹ️🗺️ Close: 🚻♿🏨🚰🍔🎼🌡📱

Chill spot (literally) that offers an assortment of refreshing drinks. I got their mango lemonade slushie and that was a very pleasant trip for my tastebuds. Quick service at a reasonable price, how can I complain?

Chewy boba with perfect texture. Grapefruit tea has bits of fresh grapefruit. The crystal boba is the best we have tasted. It's not that big and I wish it had more seating.

This was my first time trying Happy Lemon, and I must say I am impressed by it. I got the black tea with salted cheese and it was delicious. The tea flavor was perfectly strong and the cheese foam was creamy and flavorful. The quality was definitely there, but the only reason why I gave this place 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the prices. The drinks here are on the pricier side compared to other boba places.

Happy Lemon in Alameda has always been my go to place. But in my last few orders, I noticed they’ve significantly reduced the amount of boba (that I paid an extra $1). It’s hard for me to recommend this place or go back. I’m disappointed.

Good place. Im rating 3 star bc I wanted to order online but they were busy and ended going in store in person to order. Would much rather prefer to order online or door dash. I tried calling an hour before closing and they say we're busy. Makes sense and understandable. The drinks are awesome tho. But it's on the pricey side

Great drinks and waffles, but staff aren't working well together. They were confused when I asked them where my waffle was and only then started to warm up the griddle to make it.

Happy Lemon used to be my go to spot but not anymore. Today I paid $30 for 3 milk teas all for it to be wack. The tea tasted watered down, the quality has plummeted greatly and does not match its price point. If it was a $4 drink I would not complain but for $10 is ridiculous.

A
Active Bui

Is .25 cent tip an insult for buying $6 milk tea? Or maybe I shouldn't tip at all? I'm confused. They delayed my drink because of the low tip.

B
Brandon Putra

Save your money and go to Berkley or Piedmont. Came here 3 times thinking it was a fluke to be watered down... I was incorrect. Consistently watered down.

It took 40 minutes to get my drink also it wasn't busy and they messed up my order and they qhere very rude. place was a mess. it was dirty. and they also gave me someone else's drink as a bribe. do not go here. terrible service. do not care about there customers or there prosucts also don't hire people with the requirments for nesseccery for the job. terrible place.

Christina Madera

The music was really loud and I was asked to repeat my order so many times which would not have been needed had they turned down the music. Then they hand me my drink and decide to tell me what they’re out of at that moment. So my drink wasn’t made properly and I was honestly just frustrated at that point and just left with my unwanted drink in hand. Never again.

They have a bathroom, but they don't let customers in, and you get angry? Taking advantage of them.
