“04.10.24 My second time at LA County Arboretum and it's just absolutely beautiful place to visit. The Peacock Cafe is a perfect place to take a break. I had the burger and fries lunch - so yummy! I think this cafe is a great addition to the arboretum because of the very good quality and taste of food. Good enough on the number of selection to choose from. The staff are welcoming and provide pretty good service.I'm not sure if the two peacocks that graze the cafe know that they are considered to be permanent live entertainment for cafe goers. They sure make the cafe a pretty good place to hang out and they do put on pretty good show.LA County Arboretum is a must visit - I suggest calling first to find out best time of year to visit. It's mating season for peacocks so you'll see a pretty good show with males doing their best to attract the female peacocks.There is a tram to tour the arboretum. I highly recommend paying for the tram to see the whole place first as there's pretty good information about the park.“
“I got a gelato and a cappuccino, it was good, the service was pretty quick. They don't have the gelato's conventional flavors but they are good and pretty creamy. The place was full even though there were plenty of chairs and tables, mostly teenagers chilling and studying.“
“Lunch Specials are great! Grabbed a few drinks an normally stop by whenever I can. Been a frequent visitor for years, and when I’m in town I stop by grab a bite.Thank you Staff for always making my drinks delicious!Kid-friendliness: Great drink selection for kids to enjoy.“
“Old school diner with really friendly staff, and massive pieces of pie!We ordered breakfast that came out within 10 minutes. We had bottomless coffee and beautiful, massive, delicious coconut cream pie. It was made from scratch that morning. I knew I should have bought the whole pie ? I’ve been dreaming of it ever since.“
“We ordered the Thai Milk Tea, Strawberry Mango Smoothie, Oreo Vanilla Smoothie with boba...the flavors in those drinks were excellent.Great taste and great price.We took a risk and ordered the new Kiwi Green Tea with green jellies. The jasmine in it was too overpowering. Tasted fresh, but wouldn't recommend it.The line was somewhat long... it's drive thru only, so expect a bit of a wait depending on the time you go. Had one cashier who was also responsible for making the drinks to order. Felt bad for him, but he did a great job.Even with disliking the new drink we tried, it's still worthy of five stars.Highly recommend and we'd go back again in the future.“
“Came in recently and was served by a young boy with glasses, I believe his name was Jonathan. He made my drink flawlessly, I was shocked to see such a young guy do such a standout job, I would've guessed he ran the place! Just wow. By far my favorite experience and I'll never get boba elsewhere.“
“A lot of the bad reviews are about the food being bad and the coffee tasting cheap. I’ve never ordered food here, and while I’m picky about my tea and coffee, I like going to Joker’s when I want boba early in the day (it’s the earliest opening shop in the area). They make it with powder mix but they’re not trying to sell it as something above that, and the mixes are very visible. While it’s not craft coffee or tea, it satisfies my cravings for mart snacks and boba before 11am and I don’t have any complaints.“
“Great boba place!This location has always been a boba place, so when Bon Appetea took over it wasn't really a surprise. The interior didn't change much, but the drinks were great!They have some unique stuff on their menu. For example I got a chrysanthemum Oolong MT. You can legit taste the tea flavor (bold and full without overpowering the slight floralness of the chrysanthemum)The only drawback was that people who ordered after us got their orders first and we waited a lot longer than anticipated. Overall, Bon Appetea is one of the better local boba places.“
“OMG this Japanese restaurant and dessert place is super cute and delicious. Follow me!Highlights of the menu:1. Original pancake - super jiggling2. Durian hot premium pancake - Oh em Gee love!!3. Strawberry matcha dalgona4. Hot coffee with marshmallow and cookie5. Chicken karaage6. Tonkatsu curry“
“Try to get here as early as you can! I got here probably at 9.40 AM-ish. Definitely a pricey pastry BUT worth to try (and come back to). Probably one of the best croissants I’ve ever had in LA. Flake to perfection, inside is very buttery soft and fluffy. Atmosphere is very cozy and nice to work.“
“I was in the area for work and a coworker actually recommended this place to me! It seems to be one of those trusty college delis that suddenly appeared one day and permanently becomes student lore. Inside, I found a quant mini-market stocked with a bunch of snacks, drinks, and the counter for ordering. The worker (i forgot his name!) helped us immediately, and I ordered the pastrami. I sat outside, where there were plenty of tables with shade! The worker brought out the sandwich to us, and I thought it was huge! The price seemed a bit high for ne, but that wasn't too big of a concern since the sandwich was jam packed with meat and kraut. The flavor wasn't too salty for me, and had the right amount of flavor with the bread. This was a great spot, and I'll have to stop by again.“
“I placed an order online, and went to pick it up. It's difficult to find a parking spot!! I went inside, and found the place for online order pickup. A few people in that line, and after showing my order confirmation, it was about a 5 minute wait. But the line for dine in was really long! And there is a reason! IYKYK.?“
“So happy my wife and I found this place! First off the folks that work here are so sweet and thoughtful. Constantly making sure we have what we need and pointing out tables that are open incase we want a bigger table. You walk in and you’re greeted by the sweetest people . The food here reminds me of my abuela! Their cafe de olla is also spot on! I make this at home too and the one they make is perfect- reminds me of my favorite one in Mexico . I love the churros and the chilaquiles dishes are so filling and they are generous w the protein of choice. My favorite is the salsa verde one w eggs. We love coming here for our breakfast dates. Makes me miss my grandma too.“
“This is a small cafe in a medical plaza. There are minimal seating but they do provide some additional seating in front of the pharmacy inside the building! We arrived a little after if opened and there were already many people ahead of us! We tried the chocolate strawberry banana waffle as well as their egg deluxe croissant. They were fairly priced! They were both delicious though I wish I had asked them for a crispier waffle. Their service was just as expected for a small cafe making everything to order. We waited about 10-15 minutes. We would definitely come back to try their bagel deluxe!“
“Come here all the time. Food portions are very generous and the coffee here is great. A bit on the strong side at times but you’re definitely getting your moneys worth. The breakfast burrito, crepe, French Toast combo, and of course their açaí bowls are my favorites. They make a pretty hearty breakfast sandwich as well.Because their portions are big, don’t come here expecting to pick up fast food. The service is not slow. These people work hard to get your food orders ready accurately but wait time for your meal could be anywhere from 10-18 minutes. But when I tell you it’s worth the wait, trust me. I come here before work and order ahead for my lunch breaks.Staff is of course always great and friendly.“
“Love this local sandwich shop with a bit of history, amazing staff, and delicious food! Not typically a sandwich person, but this place is definitely working on changing my mind! The tri-tip sandwich, available on Thursday and Friday only, is amazing, nice smoky flavor and melted cheese, works just so well. The Hey Joe sandwich is great any other day of the week if you're a meat lover - pastrami, roast beef, and a hot link! Give them a go and support, my favorite type of restaurant to support, cheers!“
“The Earl Grey latte is SO GOOD!! I'd say this shop is a little pricey, but if you sign up for their rewards programs the points stack up past and you'll be getting a free drink or food item before you know it. I love that this coffee shop always has friendly staff and a peaceful atmosphere. Also has some outdoor seating if you want to bring your pup!!“
“Hidden away in a small shopping center J & A's is very easy to miss, being next to a water fill station and some sort of wooden sculpture store is never open. This cozy little place has a great atmosphere and the staff is very kind. Your coffee cup rarely goes empty. The food is very good and they have a variety of options to choose from. Great place for seniors to take advantage of the specials. Generally you will pay between $15-20 dollars per person but it is worth it. This place is a CASH ONLY location so be sure to bring it.Wheelchair accessibility: Parking lot is right at the entrance and plenty of tables with chairs.“
“This is a small place, but a small place with so much heart. One of the highlights of my annual business trip to Pasadena. Great coffee, breakfast food, deli sandwiches, beer, wine, etc. I once got a Cordova breakfast burrito every day three days in a row and love every second of eating it. (This was last month) anyway, can’t go wrong!“
“Food was a bit pricey but good. I am all for paying extra for a good meal and service. It was the Cash Only that got me. ATM says 2.75 fee but when I checked my bank they took an additional fee of 2.50 that’s a $ 5.00 inconvenience charge to your customer just for choosing to eat at your restaurant. Not worth it.“
“Came to try this out with my 3 kids and it was incredible. The grilled cheese was on point, and my kids devoured it. I asked for a recommendation for a not so sweet ice i coffee and the barista told me to try a caramel ice coffee. REALLY good! Also got some chocolate cake for desert. I'll be back to try every item on the menu lol. Also, I found a new life hack (if I'm late, I'm sorry). Bringing toddlers to the mall before the stores open is not only free, but the toddlers can explore all the shops without causing a ruckus!“
“I stopped by randomly at night, and it was empty. The decor was nice and vibrant. With lots of anime stuff, which is awesome to me as an Otaku. I ordered the mango passion fruit lemonade. It was made quickly and to perfection. The level of sweetness to tartness was spot on. The lady asked me to taste it before I left to ensure I liked my drink. I told her it was perfect. This particular location has had many tea owners inhabit it, but hopefully, this place is around for a long while. I wanna try lots of other delicious drinks!“
“It’s looks so good and tastes so good. To be honest I was a little overwhelmed by the many options on the menu couldn’t decide what to order. It was a weekend, the staff was very busy and I felt pressured to order quickly. But the staff stepped away to help make drinks and others’ orders. They are very fast paced. I ended up ordering Gavin’s sandwich, it was a nice breakfast option. I called and waited for someone to come back to the register to be able to take my order and it was just what I wanted. Glad I took my time to decide. I really appreciate the quality, very fresh and delicious. The latte was good as well! Although there was nice ambient music I couldn’t help but feel a little stressed out by the ordering system. That day they were really yelling out numbers loudly and repetitively for each customer to come pick up their orders from the front and not just once or twice but as many times as needed until the person went to go claim their order. This kind of killed the chill vibe for me. But overall nice food options and good quality like a gem at this town square I didn’t expect it. Even though I ordered something other than a crepe I wasn’t disappointed kuddos they are doing it right.“
“The staff was very polite and accommodating due to the rain. They were understanding that we wanted to take our time so we wouldn't have to walk outside in. The food was delicious and worth the price. The server explained that the Huntington Tea comprised of tea size sandwiches, but when it arrived, my fiancé and I were astonished at the amount of food they give you, in addition to the tea and glass of Prosecco. We needed to take our time as everything was very filling. We highly recommend it, just don't eat before like we did“
“The food is so tasty and fresh! Their Ube Cheesecake didn't disappoint and I can taste the Ube afterwards. The Ube Latte is great along with a bit of a Latte Art! And the lady at the counter was kind, patient and helpful!l The inside of this coffee shop is adorable and found this decorative piece tucked away in the back ...“
“Hip and modern cafeCome and check out their menuThey have both indoor and outdoor.Got Costa Rica pour over, purple Carmel latte (with Ube?), sea latte Carmel cappuccinoGreat drinksThe pour over is fragrant and delicious.Purple Carmel was delicious definitely recommend.They had live dj playing while we were here.Parking: Street parking recommended or neighborhood parking“
“the staff inside were soo nice and the food is simple and healthy but delicious! got the pesto sandwich with chicken and a caesar salad and it was great. was also out really quick. oh, and i got their blueberry lemonade and it was actually so good. 10/10“
“Good beans and they know how to make espresso but not as good as the better shops in Pasadena. Croissants are nothing special and a bit expensive, but other baked items are good. Worst atmosphere around, with an industrial kitchen and other operational detritus on display for all to have to look at while ordering.“
“Such a joy! This shop is truly special. The house made almond milk is outstanding. Every pastry I tried + the almond butter toast was delicious. I was visiting from out-of-state to record some music nearby and Heath (a barista) learned my name on day 1. I visited 3x during my trip, and everyday I was welcomed by name and served with such kindness and sincerity. I had to leave with some merch (love the aesthetic)! I’m looking forward to the next time I’m near Los Angeles. Absolute gem.“
“Superba is an excellent breakfast/Lunch spot. You cant go wrong with anything on their menu and their baked goods are some of the most delicious around. Their madeleines and cookies are my two recommendations, especially fresh. My go to is their egg breakfast sandwich, but the breakfast burrito is also a must try. I recommend superba for a quick bite or a nice meal with friends, but not very many plugs for the internet cafe goers.“
“We have enjoyed, many years now, the ham and cheese croissants, roast beef and cheese sandwiches, and the large chocolate donuts with chocolate chips and maple long John's. The 2 ladies that serve are always friendly and very hard working with a smile to start everybody's day.Kid-friendliness: They always ask how they're doing in school and wish them happy birthday“
“The food is just good comfort food with great personal service. My go-to dishes are the corn beef hash, short stack pancakes, and the French toast. I love their fried chicken and waffles! So good! Their burgers are great, too. Good coffee to boot!“
“Love the atmosphere and theme of this place. I went with friends and we love it. The drinks were good and the frozen treat was good. We went at a later time around 9ish and there was one worker throughout our stay. He was wonderful and hardworking because there was good amount of people that came to dine in and take-out.“
“Went here on a whim! Nice place, lots of seating, pleasant staff :) I got a vanilla lavender latte. The staff uses a la marzocco, would love to ask where they source their beans next time I go. The merchandise is nice, lot of coffee equipment“
“Hands down a great experience!At first I thought it was a bit pricey for brunch but unlike many places, it is well WORTH IT.We got the Nashville Chicken Sandwich and the Popping Yolk burger, and were highly impressed.The portions were large which included the best roasted potatoes and regular garden salad. My boyfriend visiting from Ireland said those were the best potatoes he’s had since visiting lolEverything was seasoned well and the burger was cooked just right. The staff were friendly and helpful, you order before you sit down.I went purposely on a rainy day and there was plenty of seating around 1:00pm in the afternoon. The menu selection was great, will definitely want to try one of the Benedict’s on my next visit. Will definitely come back again!“
“The famous franchising local coffee shop. Many people gather in the morning while the lane is sometimes long and the seats may face the shortage of the seats. The coffee is generally good as I tried the vanilla Bean Flavored Latte. There is somehow a secret menu of the affogato named as the Summer's Macchiato! The espresso with the vanilla ice-cream scroop! That's great in taste and cheap in price. Plenty of parking here and have the curbside pickup option if using the App. Might try for the good items next time.“
“I recommend the menudo! They make fresh tortillas daily. The French toast breakfast is also a good choice. They close early and get busy so best to go early.Parking: Corner shopping mallKid-friendliness: High chairs available and kid menuWheelchair accessibility: No stairs“
“Came by for a study sesh with a pal Drink- -Cold Brew: it's very light. Pal appreciated it since it's 3p and we're drinking coffee and studying and also.. coffee runs through our veins... BUUUT I prefer it to be stronger. Also their lids are a bit drippy, or maybe only we got those lids?? Ambiance- -relaxed and comfortable whether inside/outside. There seem to be enough outlets, but it's a good mix of people studying/reading/working and people hanging out and it works! Worth a try though I know I haven't tried their food food just yet. It's a bit out of the way for me so their coffee doesn't draw me. But I'll be by likely again and will try for some fooood!“
“This is my most favorite breakfast place - so much so that I make the drive from Palmdale twice a month.The scrambled tofu and vegan options are absolutely amazing and honestly, better, than some vegan places I've been to.Service is impeccable and fast.Definitely check Millie's out.“
“IT's A CAFE' ON HOSPITAL GROUNDS. NOT HOSPITAL FOOD AT ALL! ORDER AND PAY AT THE KIOSKs, BREAKFAST BURRITOs AND OR A HOT PAsTRAMI SANDWICH. ALL MADE TO ORDER. ALL FRESH AND DELICIOUS. DINE INSIDE OR OUTSIDE IN THE SUNSHINE UNDER THE UMBRELLAs. WHETHER YOU'RE THERE FOR A DR APPOINTMENT, TREATMENT OR THERE FOR FAMILY/FRIEND SUPPORT IT'S NICE TO HAVE THIS CAFE' TO EAT GOOD FOOD THAT IS A CLEAN AND QUIET PLACE.“
“I waited five years to try this place once I had heard that Wong Fu opened it, and the wait was worth it. The Taiwanese spicy chicken sandwich blew my mind and my spirit, and the quality of the tapioca was amazing. I don’t even live here, but I will be coming back soon.“
“Came for a late night snack and came out pretty satisfied! Our cashier/server, Cindy, was amazingly helpful and friendly in recommending their best sellers so we opted for the Nutella-filled churros and just a plain soft serve to pair with it. The churros were made so fresh it was crisp and soft (not to mention so much thicker than I expected them to be) that pocketed the right amount of filling as it didn't make a big mess when taking a bite. The soft serve was just as good when Cindy handed it over, it was swirled pretty high and tall (not pictured as I immediately dug into that one). The ambiance of this place was friendly and moderate, I want to thank Cindy for making the rest of our night great with her service. I would recommend saving this spot for late night sweets!“
“The best!!!! I love coming here to satisfy my cravings. I would recommend the Halo Halo, vanilla caramel milkshake and the coconut milk tea! The service is great and the atmosphere is amazing & very aesthetically pleasing. Lots of books to look at and places to sit and study.“
“My kids and I love the variety of beverages here and the quality is always great. The decor and atmosphere is welcoming also and a nice trip we treat ourselves to sometimes. No matter how different a drink we want, the staff is always accommodating. I love the taro milk tea, and sometimes I add lavender tea - It's delish!“
“I was looking for a local roaster in town , since I've recently purchase an espresso machine . Met Scott the owner , he was very informative about his products. Great customer service, and he even made me a shot espresso ! Will be coming back for more beans once I run out !“
“We love this boba place! Whenever we're in the Baldwin Park area, we make sure to stop and get out boba and drinks here.My go to drink is the Mango smoothie!!! I love how cold, nice and refreshing it is!!! The strawberry smoothie is my son's favorite and anything matcha are my girls favs!!! Boba Lair has seasonal drinks as well which we'll try just because it's what they're featuring.Everything here is yummy yummy yummy! Come try for yourself.“
“This is great place to come, the environment, the food and the costumer service is super. Elisa and Jose are very attentive to their customers . They walk you through the first time on how the product works and how it benefits you, it’s a great place to come . I highly recommend boom spot .“
“I always come for the Breakfast burrito and add bacon to it. The Mayan mocha is better than regular mocha. They've been generally busy every time I've come so before 10 is best to avoid a wait. If not, the wait can be 10+ min depending on the queue of coffee drinks and food.“
“Crossroads is a nice little cafe with a great variety of sandwiches. My friends and I ordered sandwiches to-go and they were so yummy! I had the spicy chicken sandwich and loved it. It was a good spice level for me but may be a little bit spicy for some. Everyone else really enjoyed their sandwiches as well. Overall, it was a great meal and I will definitely be coming back to try more things in the future.“
“Best Thai food I've ever had. Their burgers are great, too. Best service ever! I highly recommend the Angry Chicken, Pad Kee Mao, and Beyond Burger.Update: This place just keeps getting better. They did such an amazing job helping cater a Harry Potter Party. Thanks so much!!!“
