    Happy Lemon is a boba chain with locations across the US, and this spot is one of the two currently in the Boston area. We stopped by on a holiday, so the place was pretty empty, but the staff were friendly and quick with getting our order out. We tried the matcha mango smoothie and the mango green tea. Both drinks leaned heavily on the sweet side, which was honestly a bit too much. The matcha mango didn't really taste like matcha at all, which was a bit disappointing. We also got the egg waffles, which were solid and tasty but felt pretty standard, nothing that really stood out.

    Cool tea spot! Was in the mood for boba so I decided to give this place a try. I ordered the taro milk tea and it was tasty. The inside has some room for seating and games if you come with friends. The service was great and I got recommendations for flavors. I'll stop by again when I'm in the mood for boba.

    The best egg waffle, thunder agrees, just wish there is a Happy Lemon in New Jersey!

    Brought my dog to visit Boston, we had the great Bubble tea and egg waffle from Happy Lemon in Jamiaca plains.

    I felt the need to update this review as this location has really gone down hill in the last several months...there's usually only one worker in there, and when you arrive at their opening time you're told in a frustrated tone that there is no boba, no black tea, and no waffles because they just opened. Either they need to hire more workers, or they need to have their employees come in an hour earlier to prep the things that they're known for serving. Why would you open without having your basic staples prepared?

    Mango matcha with boba
    Franklin Z.

    I have always loved Happy Lemon in California and the one location in the Downtown Mall. However, it's nice to see it expand! The mango matcha is my go-to and it's such an addicting taste. It's probably one of my favorite boba drinks in Boston hands-down. Just wish it were closer such as in Coolidge Corner. Maybe for the third Boston location?

    Cute cozy bubble tea cafe. I had the strawberry black tea with lychee jelly. The tea was made with fresh strawberries which was nice touch.

    Make sure to get there well before closing time because they are cleaning up and what not and don't make drinks.

    Went to pick up a nice morning boba at 11:20 am and they were not open when they say their hours are 11 am - 9 pm. Very unhappy.

Sweet Sip definitely met our expectations that day. I got the dark and stormy milk tea which came with honey boba. It was interesting to see that you could add free toppings to your milk tea which you rarely see elsewhere. I added the passion fruit jelly and pudding. Unfortunately there were no options in the delivery app to adjust for sweetness or ice so we got the drink as is. It was very well made but was sweeter than I'd prefer (my sweetness level is 70%). However because our accompanying dinner was spicier than expected, the sweetness of the drink actually helped us! I also ordered the mochi eggpuff with pandan flavor. I'm not sure if I could taste the pandan but the eggpuff was delicious. Again, sweeter than I'd typically like but the texture was great - crunchy outside with a chewy mochi filling. We had leftovers and it heated up excellently the next day in our simple toaster oven. This was intended to be a fun add-on to our meal and turned out to be quite essential - glad we tried them out!

It makes sense if they are renovating the whole building. They have both bubble tea and frozen yogurt with plenty of topping choices. My favorite flavors are the mango, pineapple, and coconut. I love the fresh fruit and popping boba and mochi for the toppings. As with many froyo spots they charge by weight so depending on how much you loaded up would be the cost. I believe they also had 2 different size containers. In the past I remember my total being between $10-$15 so it can definitely add up! The owners also seem nice I think they tried offering a free milk tea that was made as a test for me and my friends that were hanging out in the space. Hopefully once the space is done with renovation they will be back.

Self service - you grab a plastic glove and cup, walk to the end of the shop, and start pulling down the handles to dispense yogurt. Some sample flavors are mango, vanilla , cookie and cream, and chocolate (want a mix of vanilla and chocolate? Then use the middle handle between vanilla and chocolate). After you're done with yogurt, move on to toppings (boba, candies, etc). Remember! It's weigh and pay system. My small portion came out to be exactly $6. Huge place but it's dark. Restroom in the back.

I enjoy getting their cold cut banh mi with extra butter and pate! I like that their baguettes are not too thick and are quite flaky. The bread to filling ratio is perfect each bite. Every time I visit, I always get a cold cut banh mi, nem, and sugarcane juice or an iced coffee. Super quick service. The line can seem daunting at times, especially in the early morning or lunch time but I promise it does move fast!

It's street parking and in 90+ degrees weather in August, they had no air conditioning. Waiting for my food order made it uncomfortable and very frustrating. Banh mi was mediocre at best and nothing special. Com tom was meh. Beef jerky was super tough, not thin enough to tear and just had a sweet and spicy glaze on it sprinkled with sesame seeds. Vietnamese coffee was strong but not sweet enough. The establishment is packed with foods packed and ready to go. They need to add sell by dates or packed on dates to assure quality control on the prepackaged foods. There's really no prices on anything either. With all of the prepackaged foods and no AC, it scares me a bit that the food would spoil in the heat so I tried to pick things that I knew would be somewhat made to order. I don't recommend this establishment and I wouldn't return as there are plenty of other places with better food.

    I was here a few years ago and it was awesome…read more I happened to be in the area so stopped by again It is more authentic Thai food which is the only good thing I can say though you'll get a bunch of rice and little meat. They have a kiosk you order food. The first thing you see is how many pennies they will charge you for any fork knife spoon plate bag etc. it's making customers wonder if you're stressing over pennies what's the quality of food like are they skimping on that too? I ordered a pad kra pao. It's always been served with an egg. Not here, that's $2.95 extra! The price doesn't include any meat/tofu, you have to choose one that's at least $1.95 more So $17 plus tax for a takeout and they make me pay .03 for a fork and no napkins anywhere to be seen btw. The dish was almost all rice. There was maybe 6oz of basil peppers and minced chicken Gf had a panang curry which was also almost all rice I won't be coming back sorry to say especially given the horrible traffic that plagues this area. That's my .03 or the cost of their stupid plastic fork....... Next time I'm headed north on 93 to Bangkok spice in reading
