Mango Sago with lychee and Thai tea with boba
Mia M.

We tried a mango sago with lychee jelly and a house Thai tea with oat milk and boba. I got the Thai tea 50% sweet and it was perfect for me. We were going to order a waffle but the waffle prep area needs to be kept a little tidier. Maybe we will try one next time.

Oreo

Ordered on the app and it was quickly filled in 10 min. We got an Oreo bubble waffles and a mango matcha smoothie. This bubble waffle is one of the best in the bay! Very crispy on the outside and soft in the inside! Even after 30 min, it's still crispy!! The mango matcha smoothie was good too. The balance between the mango and matcha flavor was perfect. Neither one was overpowering.

Menu

Excellent place to stop by for a tasty treat if you're in the Crow Canyon Commons complex in San Ramon. Our teen and I stopped by this afternoon and were warmly welcomed by the owner, who took the trouble to describe the options and even made us a sample of their signature drink - green tea with salted cheese (!) - to try. "Take a sip, not a gulp, that includes some salted cheese (which floats on top) with the green tea," he said. I did, and was hooked!! I immediately ordered a large one, and our daughter went for the matcha tea with salted cheese (both $6.50). We also got an original waffle (they make six types, including red bean, which is not listed on the menu) with a dipping sauce which was... you guessed it... salted cheese! The waffle and drinks were delish. We polished off the waffle (I enjoyed the salted cheese more than our daughter did) and our drinks, then stepped out into the April drizzle, happy and content as we could be! Pro-tip: They cater high school and other events - we are planning to take them up on it!!

F2. Mango Matcha
Michael C.

My wife and I love this place and come at least once a week. The Mango Matcha Smoothie is always our go-to although they have so many good choices to choose from. The Mango Matcha is thirst quenching and not too sweet which is exactly how I like it. If we're feeling hungry, we always add the Original Bubble Waffle with the Puff Cream. We never get the waffle by itself. The Puff Cream just makes it a thousand times better. Regardless of what we get, the staff is always super friendly and our drinks are almost always made on time when we call it in or order through the app. Overall, I give this place 4 stars for always having good drinks and friendly service. Some things that would definitely give this 5 stars: -The bubble waffle is often made inconsistently and it's usually because of the person making it. Sometimes we have to get our order cancelled because the waffle-maker just isn't working right. -While ordering in the app is great, it doesn't match the store hours. -It's almost always so hot and humid inside which makes me not want to stick around and enjoy my drink. Besides that, the great service and tasty drinks always go a long way for me.

I always wanted to try Happy Lemon and noticed a new one opened in the Crow Canyon Commons shopping center. It's like any boba place, order at the counter and wait for your order. It was quite busy for being there midday on a Saturday. Service was friendly. I wanted to try the waffle and a plain jasmine green tea. I think I would have been better off just ordering my tea. The waffle took long, I was warned, but did it anyway. The one part that was confusing was I couldn't find the garbage can to throw away the straw paper. Actually, it was hiding behind a group of girls who were just hanging around the area. I didn't dislike it but it's one of those places that I wouldn't go out of my way to go to. if I'm in the area, I would consider it.

H5. Mango Lemon Slushy with boba

Finally writing the much deserved review for this Happy Lemon Location! Other than a few in south bay, this Happy Lemon consistently makes the most delicious drinks, it feels a bit more flavorful than other locations in this area. When they opened, they were extremely friendly to my parents and their service dog. I haven't been back in awhile but decided to stop by and they made this drink PERFECTLY!!! Perfect blend of lemon and mango slushy, mixed it before so my jelly and boba were dispersed throughout the drink. Will definitely be back

Thank you for the awesome, friendly service and great ambiance! Always the best. Always happy to come here whenever I need a boba LOL

D1. Boba Milk Tea, large size
Kev H.

I really had no idea there was a Happy Lemon store in the San Ramon's Crow Canyon area. Apparently it opened about a year ago. When we were there on a Saturday evening, the owner was there, and he was very nice. We chatted a little bit. I was really impressed by how clean the store was, and I really loved the leaf wall decoration, which was perfect for taking pics of your drinks. I got their regular Boba milk tea, and the milk tea was spot on. The milk tea drink itself was creamy and delicious. The Boba was also cooked pretty spot on. The Boba had the perfect sweetness, and it was soft but still chewy. I would get this again. The price was $6.25 as of April 2024, for the large size.

This happy lemon is always good, the tea is nice and strong. They added a Vietnamese coffee drink that's tasty, good roasted flavor to it. I think what they really need are self ordering pads. That way staff can mainly focus on making drinks unless someone really wants to order at the counter or has questions. They have a screen that shows what orders are up--they should take a look at the screen local kitchens in Lafayette uses, it shows what orders are ready in a really nice way. The drinks come out pretty quickly. If you like bubble waffles they have them here (original, matcha, oreo, chocolate, boba) with dipping sauce options (puff cream, taro puff cream, salted cheese).

Loved the pieces of strawberry in it and the cup was super cute Brown sugar boba: 4/5 it was also very good, I think I would have liked more brown sugar syrup on the cup like it looks in the advertised picture Creme burle Thai tea: 2/5 they don't let you customize the sweetness on the drink and we thought it wasn't sweet enough and didn't have a strong Thai tea taste either. Also wished it was in a clear cup so we could see what the "creme brulee" was The have an ordering screen with tap to pay inside. I liked this because you can see the pictures of each drink. They have three small tables inside. I would come back to try some other drinks.

Ume Tea is located in the Safeway shopping center right off of Crow Canyon. It's in the midst of…read morequite a few other places that offers snacks, food and drinks all around it. However, you're not going to find a cuter looking store than this in the area, so can't miss it. Ume offers the boba variety and will have the typical snacks that accompanies it. While no major food options, it's quite literally next to a sando place, and other food spots so you don't necessarily have to get a meal meal here. As mentioned before, Ume's play is definitely on the cute angle. I've been to their other locations and it's the same thing basically. This location does have a few seating inside albeit no big tables, and a few seating outside with a bigger table. The decor, from the seating pillow, to the wall design, to the cute mascots on the cups, it's all very coordinated at the very least. Price wise, it's not bad. Compared to Sharetea which is also in this shopping center, it's about comparable, though perhaps slightly cheaper, but not by much. Drink option wise, Sharetea is going to have more options of course, but Ume also has a good variety. Service here is good, just not friendly. You can just order yourself on the screen, but the people who work there really won't want to interact with you other than bringing out the order. They will at least pretend to work out half a smile when they feel like it, but otherwise they'll sort of just be doing their own thing most of the time I've been here. The drinks here are pretty decent. I've mostly gotten the milk teas when I've been here, and all in all, they've been real tasty. The combination of taste from the mixing was well done. The boba here is also quite good. Well made and certainly on par with Sharetea's boba if you need to compare, but slightly different, in a good way. All in all, Ume is a fine option for boba if you're in the area, and don't feel like Sharetea. Their drinks are priced relative to the area's offerings, and drink quality has also been good. However, one thing to note is that if you don't get the large cup, they unfortunately use the mini cups for regular size, which at the price for the upgrade, doesn't really make much sense unless you just want less, which in this case it'll work out. But just know, regular size here are small.

This particular location isn't a large one, as it's mostly primed for takeout and just has tiny tables in and out. I won't speak to the menu itself, since it's basically the same as all the other spots. This particular Sharetea is usually a bit slower than some of the other ones I've been to. In general, they tend to really take their time when taking orders, clearing the line, making the drinks, and overall just doesn't feel as smooth as some of the other locations. As far as the drink quality goes, it's rather hit or miss at times too as sometimes the drinks are as good as any other spot, and sometimes it's just mediocre flavored water at best. Again, there's more than 1 boba spot in this same shopping center, not to mention other spots that desserts also. If you get here on a good day, then no issues, but rather luck of the draw at that point.

Ordering through the kiosk was simple, and we settled in, chatting and taking photos with the fun décor while waiting for our drinks. As other customers came and went with their orders, I started wondering why ours was taking so long. It finally hit me, I had placed the order... but completely forgot to pay, so it never went through. With a hard stop coming up, I checked in at the counter, half-panicked and fully embarrassed. Thankfully, the gentleman behind the counter handled it with so much grace. He quickly took our order on the spot, had our drinks ready in record time, and even offered complimentary mochi donuts. I declined out of sheer embarrassment, but my daughter accepted one (churro flavor), and loved it. The drinks themselves were excellent: the brown sugar crème brûlée with konjac jelly was rich and satisfying, and the pineapple green tea with lychee and konjac jelly was light, refreshing, and perfectly balanced. Between the cute vibe, quality drinks, and genuinely kind service, this place left a great impression. A small hiccup on my end, but they turned it into a standout experience.

The deep-fried squid (basically calamari) is just as good -- light, crispy, and not overly greasy. It's the kind of snack you order "to share" and then end up guarding. And you can't leave without trying their soft serve. The fish-shaped cone is fun on its own, but the unique soft serve flavors make it special. It's creative, delicious, and something you can't find anywhere nearby. It's heartbreaking that they're closing sometime March. Places that put this much care into both flavor and creativity deserve better. If you've ever thought about trying it, now is the time. Local gems like this don't come around often -- and they shouldn't disappear quietly.

We ordered from a tablet at the front and the service was prompt and friendly. I'd love to see them add in some outside seating as beyond the Starbucks, there's no seating in this shopping center. All in all, we may come back to order food but sadly it just wasn't a good match for the type of ice cream I enjoy.
