Happy Lemon made me very happy during my jury service. This location is in the Corner Mall food court which for me was a pro as the location was convenient. My go to order was the mango slushy with boba. My slushy was blended with lemon pulp which was tart initially but complemented the sweetness of the drink. The boba was really good majority of the time. There's only one size but it is really tall and filling. I definitely recommend if you are in the area.

This Happy Lemon is located in the Food Court Mall, so the atmosphere isn’t the best unless you’re still in high school, as that is most of the demographic. However, you can always explore Downtown Boston or the Commons, since those are nearby.The milk tea here wasn’t bad, but it was average. I think they are known for their cheese topping. I tried it once, and it does add a salty creaminess, so I recommend getting that.

The most lackluster taro milk tea I have ever had. Would not recommend at all. Not worth the nearly $8.

Ordered the strawberry black tea with lychee jelly pieces and a Tara milk tea. Both delicious.

As someone who at this point has tried almost every boba shop in the Back Bay/Downtown area, I can say that Happy Lemon definitely stands out as one of my favorites. Although the location isn't as convenient (it is located inside of a food court with a very different vibe than most other boba shops), the taste, quality, and value is great. I ordered a taro milk tea with boba which was great. They added some foam and taro chunks to my drink as well, which made it very enjoyable to eat. I was also very happy with the size of the drink - they only have one size - but it leaves you feeling very full. I'll definitely return to try some more of their fun flavors!

Tried a different drink from what I usually get. It was good. Prices are not too bad. Friendly employees. Environment is great.

Should have ordered 70 sugar because mine was a bit too sweet. I went for their signature taro milk. Quick service and friendly staffs.

It's in mall and the people didn't really talk to you much. They just asked what you wanted and then made it. Great for introverts The mall is a bit sketch but it's a mall so ofc it's gonna be like that. They don't have thai bubble Tae and they makes me sad. Though many places here don't have thai bubble tea which is so observing because its the best flavor!

this is a small kiosk inside of the food court mall. the syrups here definitely pack a punch and I found it to be quite potent compared to other boba/drink places. I ended up diluting my drink with water at home and I still couldn't finish it, which is surprising considering I like sweet things.
I came here about a week ago and I for the quality, service and experience the price is not worth the cost! I came to the counter and was waiting for almost 5 minutes with me being the only person in line... The employee knew I was there and kept her head down to avoid contact. Knowing that I was in line waiting and she avoided looking me straight in the eyes as if she was being lazy to serve me . Everyone has their bad days and thats okay! However making someone wait in line for 5 minutes and not wanting to serve when they are the only person in line cause your avoiding doing your job is horrific customer service.

A delicious hidden bubble tea place! I enjoy the green tea with salted cheese (make sure to sip it from the top), my friend likes their milk tea with cream puff.
