Crema's Take

Happy Tea Cafe wins people over with genuinely friendly staff and creative drinks that go beyond standard boba—their Mangonada and fruit-forward specialty teas get real praise, and the taiyaki and bao buns are legit standouts. The space has a fun, relaxed vibe with board games and community notes on the wall, making it a solid spot for lingering with friends or family. It's a reliable neighborhood favorite rather than a destination, with solid execution across the board and no major complaints worth flagging.

What to expect

Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

The bubble tea is better than I’ve ever had! My pick is the oolong with oat milk and extra boba. Roasty flavor and you can actually taste the tea. Taiyakis are sooooo good. I’d never heard of them before trying them at Happy Tea Cafe’. Definitely will have again. Costa I and…
