Been to many happy lemon locations, unfortunately this is my least favorite.
Place is small with 3 bar stools and one small table. The place did not appear very clean. Not a spot I would recommend to hang out in.
I was the only person in there trying to order, but it felt like I was inconveniencing the workers?
Happy Lemon tea quality is about 1 level above Quicklys. Its been a while since I’ve had Happy Lemon, so I just grabbed it since I was in the area, but wow I can’t believe the price is $6.50 now, for a small w/o boba. This was pretty off-putting,when you can get better quality tea at this price.

Teaching my daughter how to drive, and she wanted to stop here. I am pleasantly surprised. Already had dinner, but I'll be back to try the popcorn chichen and wings. I got the strawberry smoothie, which is quite good. Next time, I'll try the chocolate and salty something. Curious. Good service, I do wish they had a small or regular size to go with the only size they seem to carry, which is a large. Oh yeah, I *love* that you get to pick the sugar level, and ice level. I got 25% sugar and it was darn near perfect. 👍👍👍

The tea was great and refreshing, definitely recommend this place after you eat your meal in the Cupertino Village. Has many options. Although the tea is good, sometimes the boba will be hard, but, i didn’t really care. This is a wonderful place. Amazing service, good spot, and free wifi if you want to do a bit of work.

Salted Cheese
One of the best classic milk tea boba's I've had in the bay area. The smoky tea flavour was simply amazing to say the least. The bubble waffle with salted cheese is a combo you could go for without a second thought.

The salted cheese is just not salty enough but they do give more cheese and tea volume than other Happy Lemons I have been to. The tea was also a little too sweet even though I had it at my regular sweetness. This Happy Lemon is in the core of a huge Asian food plaza so it's a good place to go after dinner. The bathroom could be a cleaner but there were only two employees working.
The strawberry green tea was good and made from fresh strawberries. It was still kind of sweet even with no added sugar. Only iced version was offered but it tasted good.

Strawberry Milkshake
Very nice and fresh milk tea place. I tried the black tea topped with salty cheese, surprisingly delicious! Definitely will come back and try one of other flavors next time!
Note: This is Happy Lemon located in the Cupertino Village Ranch 99 Plaza!!
Ordered a medium boba milk tea for myself and a medium mango lemon slushy for my sister. You can customize size of drink (medium or large), ice level, and sugar levels.
Very happy and satisfied with my drink - note I have a BIG sweet tooth and so does my sister! We ordered regular sugar/how it is usually made (I'm assuming 100% sweetness?) Either way, if you do NOT have a sweet tooth, order it with LESS SUGAR because it IS sweet. (Sweet is how I like things).
Came here around 3:45 pm on a Tuesday afternoon. No staff or customers in sight when I arrived, but I did hear a staff member washing dishes in the back. There is no bell I can ring to alert anyone I am there... about 30 seconds after my arrival, a line starts to form behind me. I and the customers behind me probably stand there for a total of 5-10 minutes... Eventually a staff member finally comes out and he immediately begins to take my order along with the 4 customers behind me. The poor guy was working alone! After taking everyone's order, he immediately made my drinks and gave it to me in a bag. So nice!
5/5 for the drinks
4/5 because I had to wait 5-10 minutes for the staff member to come out and take my order. I feel bad because he was working alone.... the poor guy! But I do have to say, he handled the afternoon boba rush well! I would have given this place 5/5 if someone was up at front/I didn't have to wait for someone to come out from the back, that's all.
Highly recommend! I am happy with Happy Lemon and enjoyed my drink! :)
This location is rarely busy that Ive found so the few times Ive gone Im in and out. As for the product you HAVE to try their cheese topping on your tea. Yes, as everyone else, it sounded gross, but it really adds to the flavor. I prefer their Oolong with the cheese. Great place for that afternoon caffeine and sugar boost.
I love their salted cheese with tea, and Okinawa milk tea. I’ve been here dozens of times. You can get your milk tea very fast.
