Owner is very nice, calm, and personable. Went as far as accommodating the music to our liking while we sat and enjoyed their delicious products. A wide variety on the menu and very customizable. Setting is modern and fresh. Check them out!

If you’re looking for a boba shop that feels less like a chain and more like a home, Happy Bobas on Irving Park is the spot.

I’ve known Kelly, one of the owners, since our UIC college days nearly 20 years ago, and it’s been inspiring to see her and her husband, Sonny, bring their vision to life. While many boba shops lean on heavy sugar, Happy Bobas takes a different approach—crafting drinks that let the actual flavors of fruit and tea shine through. My personal favorites include the Lychee Green Tea with Butterfly Pea Tea, the Sparkling Lemon Mojito, and the Matcha Milk Tea. Each drink has a refreshing balance, and even the tapioca pearls and jellies are just right—satisfying without being overly sweet.

The menu is broad, offering milk teas, fruit teas, smoothies, desserts, and even ice cream. At first it might feel like a lot to choose from, but Sonny and Kelly are always there with friendly recommendations to guide you toward something you’ll love. Their warmth is a big part of what makes this place special—you’re greeted not just with a smile, but with genuine conversation that makes you feel welcome.

The shop itself is colorful and fun. Neon zodiac signs brighten the walls, plants bring a cozy touch, and there’s a playful energy that sets the tone as soon as you walk in. It’s the kind of environment where you might see family and friends stopping by, which adds to the homely, community vibe.

On top of that, they run a rewards program (buy 10 drinks, get 1 free) and often host fun promotions and events. Be sure to follow them on TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook to keep up.

Whether you’re a boba regular or brand new, you’ll walk away with a drink you’ll crave again and an experience that feels personal.
