    A great spot with friendly service and a great product!!! I had a strawberry lemonade (non-tea) slush/smoothie (non-dairy) Parking was easy

    Grand opening line

    Fresh squeezed lemon tea, I got C4 which was the squeeze honey lemon tea. I didn't have to modify the ice or sugar levels, it wasn't too sweet tasting with the lemon. Parking is always full in the lot so had to wait for a spot. Currently they are doing a Genshin Impact Collaboration with special branded packages you can purchase for about $25. Like this place because they have bubble waffle to order along with your drink, not too many boba shops have this.

    H5. Mango Lemon Slushy

    Friendly service. Drink hit the spot. Wouldn't rush to come back, but it's nice to add this to the Rolodex of boba spots I can visit in the area

    Strawberry Lemon Slushy

    I ordered a strawberry lemon slushy but I cannot do full sweetness. However, there was no option to adjust the sugar on this drink since the syrup had already been presweetened. So my drink ended up too sweet for my liking and it also gave me jitters from the sweetness & I couldn't fully enjoy it. Wish they can improve on that aspect because I like the option to change my sugar levels!

    I've always loved Happy Lemon--whether in Seattle, Taiwan, or San Diego--but the Arcadia and Alhambra locations have been such a letdown, especially when it comes to customer service. I ordered a Salted Cheese Green Tea with Double Boba and an egg waffle, and the experience was frustrating from start to finish. The first drink I got barely had any boba--just a small amount near the bottom--and a super thin layer of cream. It didn't look anything like the photos or what I've had at other locations. When I asked for more boba since I paid for double, I was told that was their standard amount, even though other locations clearly serve much more. Eventually, the lady added more boba, but then all the cream was removed, and I was told it "sank" because of the boba. I asked if they could either add the cream back or simply pour out some tea to add the cream, and while they did remake it, the lady made a point to "show me" their double boba standard--which still didn't measure up to what I've had elsewhere. This shouldn't have been such a hassle. Part of why I love Happy Lemon is the consistency and great service, but both are seriously lacking here. I hope the owner sees this and makes some changes because Happy Lemon's drinks and customer service are usually what make the brand so special. These locations don't live up to that reputation.

    Service was excellent but the drinks.... Eh Ube smoothie w egg pudding tasted different from other boba places I've been to... Taste a lot of cheese foam Strawberry Matcha was ok. Couldn't tasted the strawberry so the matcha was very strong in my tasting. Boba gets hard fast... Dragonfruit lemon slushy w lychee jello like was alright. Very lemony!

    Mango lemon slushy
    Vicky W.

    Mango makes every drink tastes better!! Don't you agree with me?! This drink is super refreshing for the hot day the sweetness and sourness is just perfectly balanced. Very nice and welcoming shop. Plenty of seats with bar section and tables. The girl behind the counter is so sweet and friendly. Mango Lemon Slushy is the one I got!! Sooooo good!! Let's go!!

    Milk Tea with Salted Cheese and Boba
    Steph C.

    Still love the milk tea with salted cheese. I get it with 0% sugar now and it is still sweet enough for me. Their boba is also bomb.com. Whenever I'm in the area I have to stop here to get my drank! Usually quick service and there's some seating inside if you want to hang out.

    I've tried a lot of different places around this area trying to find a really well made egg waffle. But that most places the batter is just not well balanced. but Happy Lemon is the only place we could find that makes the egg waffle delicious as close as it is in Hong Kong. The waffle usually takes about five minutes to make unless there are a lot of people in line ahead of you.. I recommend if you are just trying to swing by and grab it really quickly to call ahead of time and place an order so you can pick it up by the time you get there. The location in this area is pretty small and the parking lot is not that big either. But the inside of the shop is pretty nice and cutely decorated

    Matcha waffle and mango lemon slushie
    Nancy T.

    Their mango lemon slushie was 4/5. It was good, not bad. I barely tasted any mango. The lemon flavor was refreshing for a hot day. I enjoyed this drink. Their matcha waffle was also good. It was one pricey snack.

    Mango Lemon Slush
    Omar A.

    I have acrophobia. It means that I have an abnormal fear of high places; a morbidity towards heights if you will. It sometimes crosses over towards things I'm looking forward to as well. I place them on pedestals so high that they never seem to satisfy me. Maybe I should start fearing them instead of having high hopes. Since the hopes are so high, it would only make sense for my acrophobia to be triggered, right? Anyways, I had these same high hopes for Happy Lemon. With a name like that, who wouldn't? But I'm sorry to say, I was disappointed with my first experience here. It was enough for me to probably not make it back again, sadly. The drink I got was the Mango Lemon Slush. It started off on a bad foot as I was told I couldn't reduce the sweetness level. Okay, not a big deal, I guess. The drink looked delicious to the eyes, but when I tasted it, something was a little off. There seemed to be a weird artificial aftertaste that was kind of....absinthian. Maybe that's why you can't reduce the sweetness level, since the sweetness is replaced with bitterness? Whatever the case, it was difficult to get past this taste to even finish the drink. I guess that's why they say that bitter pills are tough to swallow.

    Happy lemon/Genshin Impact Jean-Bea tea sleeve combo

    This plaza needs more parking spaces. If you can't find parking there should be some street parking near 7-11 which isn't too far of a walk. I believe Happy Lemon opened this year 2024 which took over Ding tea. This one happens to have Genshin Impact promo on Nov 15. You have to order through a person so they can give you your items before your drink. I ordered the Jean bea which has lychee jelly, boba, whipped cream, and Oreo crumbles. Combination is a bit odd but it works. Nice service, they probably need more workers to man the cash register and others to make the drinks but I came before school lets out. Thanks for the drink and Genshin items Happy Lemon!

    A quaint brick-and-mortar location near the heart of the iconic Baldwin Ave in my hometown of Arcadia. Great selection of drinks, particularly differential to the cheese foam variants but you can't go wrong with their classic milk teas or namesake lemon drinks as well. Bubble waffles are delectable and frankly delicious with any of their variety of dipping sauces, with the OG and ube coming out on top.

    My wife and I visited Oops Boba on the weekend and it wasn't busy at all. We ordered on Fantuan and…read moreour order was ready within 5-10 minutes. Parking - Street parking only, no dedicated parking lot. Interior is pretty clean, cafe vibes, and some tables around but not too many. There's a huge table for big groups as well which is nice. There's also a self ordering kiosks which is always a nice sight to see when you visit tea shops. We tried the White Peach Oolong Milk Tea and the Oops Cheese Matcha Smash which seems to be one of their more popular drinks. The white peach is what you expect, refreshing and easy to sip. Very happy with the drink overall. As for the Oops Cheese Matcha Smash, aesthetically, the drink is great for photos. It looks more like a swirl drink than anything. I love the overall texture of the drink. It was also as refreshing as the white peach. The cheese mix with the matcha created a swirling feeling, each sip is filled with both flavoring, highly recommend. Excited to revisit again later on, love their menu options, and it seems like a decent spot to hangout with friends or a group despite the smaller space.

    I had a delightful experience at Oops Boba Tea & Coffee (Temple City). I ordered the Baked Brulee…read moreMilk Tea ($6.59) with Boba (additional 75 cents). It's crisp black tea, salty & sweet brulee foam, and non-dairy milk with bouncy, perky boba pearls. I sipped happily. I arrived at Oops Boba Tea & Coffee (Temple City) on Sunday (around 11:12AM). Parking is simple since there's a nearby neighborhood with street parking. I quickly found a spot. Customers can order at the self-service kiosk or the counter. I chose the self-service kiosk, and I regret it because I dislike how the self-service kiosk requires the customer's phone number to proceed. Staff communicates well. After ordering, Staff honestly & politely informed me that they'd need 20 additional minutes for their Boba since they recently opened. I was perfectly fine with that since they spoke upfront and honestly. After the 20 minutes passed, the drink took four minutes and 14 seconds. As mentioned, I ordered the Baked Brulee Milk Tea ($6.59) with Boba (additional 75 cents). It's delicious. This chill drink carries a crisp tea flavor. The foam is also zesty with a soft sweetness. It reminds me of a creamy milk tea. In addition, they made wonderful boba pearls. These boba pearls are sweet, bouncy, and playful. YUM! On ambiance, Oops Boba Tea & Coffee (Temple City) is a wonderful spot to study/work. There's a long wooden table with 9 electrical plug spots, and there's four available electrical outlets. The location also includes customer internet with password; the details are confidently shown on the counter. The location also has a gender neutral restroom in the back, and there's plentiful hand sanitizer bottles in reach. The location felt clean and comfortable. Oops Boba Tea & Coffee (Temple City) uses its space well. There's four tables and one long wooden table. There's also two small outside tables. During my stay, it felt very comfy as I listened to its smooth music. Overall, I had a pleasant experience at Oops Boba Tea & Coffee (Temple City). They serve wonderful drinks and boba. If searching for a place to study/work, this is an easy recommendation. 4.8 out of 5

    I've been here twice and really like it…read more First, the drinks. They range from $1.99-$3.99...talk about throwback pricing. Reading th menu made me feel like it was 1999 all over again. Price aside, the drinks are good and on par with what you would find at typical boba shops. The food is where this place really shines. They have a large menu, ranging from rice to noodles to grilled meats served on a hot plate. I got the $21 NY steak today, which was a generous portion, served with sliced onions, corn, broccoli and choice of rice or spaghetti. It's not Morton's but, c'mon, $21 for a steak fix these days is a heck of a deal. Most of their entrees are in the $14-18 range. To top it off, the service is great - attentive and very friendly. Free parking lot in the back.

    Unfortunately they have discontinued their weekday combo menu making it less worth the drive for us…read moreso we're not sure when we'll next be back. The good news is, their chicken steak is still just as yummy! We ordered: - Grilled chicken steak with black pepper sauce and spaghetti (4/5): Super crispy skin and juicy chicken. The black pepper sauce adds a fragrant touch - much better pairing than the mushroom sauce we got on a previous visit. The spaghetti portion is smaller than at most other HK cafes and isn't as good though. - Baked sole filet with rice and white sauce (3/5): Had high expectations for this dish but it didn't quite meet them. The rice used was plain white rice which isn't what I'm used to at other HK cafes and it left me a bit disappointed since it meant the dish was much more monotone in flavor and there were bites that were unflavorful. The fish itself was generously portioned and easy to eat with the warming cheese and white sauce combo. Wouldn't get again only because I know other spots that do it much better but decent overall. - Beef stew with noodle (3/5): Had expected this to be dry style with the beef stew over softened egg noodles but it came out as a soup. Beef pieces were tender and generous. Egg noodles were a bit overcooked. - Sticky Rice Dim Sum: They were massive and decent in flavor. They were a little mushy I think because it had been steaming a while (which was probably why they were quick to be served) but we didn't mind - Siumai: Generous amount of fish egg on top and was pleasantly meaty. We found parking in the front but also know there's a lot in the back. The restaurant itself is big and pretty empty and quiet. We were glad that service was friendly and quick this visit since the first time we were there one of the servers gave us attitude.
