It was good until they increased the price. The prices are even higher than the quality of their drinks.

Mango Matcha smoothie what I usually order from Happy Lemon. Decided to try the Alameda location and was sadly disappointed. I kept getting hard mango seed and sour mango chunks throughout my drink. know mango is not in season, but come on now at least better quality control?!?!

I was let down by my visit to Happy Lemon in Alameda. The Oreo milk tea I ordered had a chemical taste, and the store's condition was off-putting: dirty, dark at 3:30 pm, and eerily silent. While the staff were nice, the overall experience felt like a rip-off, especially since I've had much better experiences at other Happy Lemon locations.

WHEN: Sat @1:30pmWhile everyone was outside for the Wine & Arts Festival, we took cover for some refreshments to cool off. It's my first time at a Happy Lemon, so I figure I keep it simple by ordering:E10 - KUMQUAT LEMON w/LYCHEE JELLIES - $6.25Wow, so refreshing! I think the secret ingredient is the salted dry plum, which I didn't expect to be in it! I love those, and I think it enhances all the wonderful flavors! This was so good and unique!This shop is pretty cute, well air-conditioned, with a couple of chairs and tables to hang out in. Not a busy time, but perhaps because it's during a festival.

This happy lemon is a lot smaller than the other ones I've been to. There are a few tables and chairs inside but seems more like a place where you buy your drinks and be on your way. You can order at the self kiosk they have set up to your left or with the cashier at the front. Staff was friendly. I was the only customer inside so service was quick. They were already done with my drink within a few minutes of ordering.I decided to get the Green Tea with Salted Cheese. I've ordered this before at other happy lemon but this drink tasted a little water down. Usually I can taste the salted cheese with every sip but I barely tasted anything. It was a warm day so it was still a refreshing drink.

Ordered a Okinawa Roast Milk Tea with BoBa .25% sweet and 50% ice. So good. We actually like this place a lot but forget about it often since it's located right off the beaten path. Ding Tea and Gong Cha definitely very average. This place is fun and makes you want to try new drinks.

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.
Was pleasantly surprised to find a Happy Lemon in San Leandro! Came here in the evening and it was relatively empty; I got the fresh lemon black tea with no sugar (don't know why I did that, but trust me, don't do it. Get at least 25%). My drink personally was not good but that was my own fault for choosing 0% sugar, which I won't be doing again. My friend on the other hand, chose wisely and got a lemon slush with lychee jelly. I tried some of that and that was delicious. Onto the decor and vibes - one thing I appreciated about this Happy Lemon was the bright mural which I don't typically see in Happy Lemons and a communal seating area. It makes it a great spot to catch up with friends!

Súper yummy slushies here very flavorful the I always get the mango slush with aloe when In season and you can tell that the fruit is fresh, their bubble waffles are also nice and crispy on the edges but soft and fluffy in the middle slightly sweet made to perfection. The only thing I wish is that they could adjust the sweetness level in the Beverage as I sometimes want it to be less sweet other than that it's definitely a must try for a cool refreshing drink.

I absolutely love how many options they have here. Everything is fresh and delicious. Their lemon drinks are insanely refreshing.
