50 Best Cafes near Alhambra

“What truly sets this place apart is the incredible hospitality. The owners make us feel like family every time we visit, and their positive energy is contagious. The prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. We even drive a long way to get our food and drinks here, and it’s always worth the trip.“

“This 7 Leaves location is my favorite since it has a drive thru. However, it’s a bit small and sometimes the line could go out to the street depending on when you use it. I went around 5:30 pm on a weekday and that was the case. After waiting about 10 minutes, I was able to order and it was ready within a few minutes.

There was a seasonal drink, so I thought I gave it a try. I tried the Rio Rosa, which was strawberry with condensed milk. I got this with honey boba as well. It tasted refreshing since it was hot that day. But overall, I thought it was just okay. I wouldn’t get that specific drink again.

This location does accept American Express.“

“Their varieties of breads and cakes are fewer comparing to the other 85degree bakeries, I don’t mind driving further for more choices. But if I’m craving a slice of Black Forest cake, then I’ll come here, since they will always have the classics/basics here.“

“Such a nice café with a lovely atmosphere — perfect for catching up with friends.

The tuna sandwich is really good, packed with plenty of tuna and served with a berry-sauce salad on the side.

The chicken pesto sandwich also comes with a generous portion of chicken. The prices are reasonable and the portions are satisfying. I’ll definitely come back next time to try other items on the menu.“

“I Love this place I always have fun here me and my Sister come almost every weekend either friday or saturday were like one of the regulars food and Drinks are the bomb they have good Birthday Party's there and everyone that comes here are cool.“

“Delicious breakfast“

“The best soups love the salads love the bread 🥖 Delicious“

“Cha Express Handmake black rice milk tea , puff cream bubble milk tea and hawaii fruit tea is the best . Place is clean and comfort . I will definitely try other drinks next time“

“Our favorite place to eat when we fly into Los Angeles! A huge menu and everything we tried was tasty. And the portions are huge with very reasonable prices. The menu is big & diverse, containing Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and other Asian dishes, as well as fish & chips, steaks, chops, and grilled chicken. YUM!“

“Que Delicia! Todo Fresco! Y Vegano <3“

“Going local-origin for my next batch of pumpernickel bagels. Choco-latte and Nicaraguan chocolate down here are legit crazy awesome!“

“A cozy café with a Korean vibe. I had been following posts about its opening on a thread, so I felt a sense of familiarity with it. The dessert and drink menu were simple and not over-the-top, which I really liked. I was surprised to see more foreigners than Koreans, even though cafés like this usually attract a lot of Koreans. The atmosphere was lovely as well.“

“Warmly welcoming cafe with delicious food. How nice to be able to indulge in a treat and support a wonderful organization at the same time! We recommend the esquite, the pozole, and the strawberry hibiscus fresca. Can't wait to come back and try the famous chilaquiles!“

“Beautiful quaint little neighborhood cafe with a garden vibe. Run by a super kind and sweet lady who puts a lot of thought into healthy ingredients. Everything is so fresh.
The food is delicious. I also love their juices.
They do serve coffee which is also solid.“

“Delicious breakfast which is enough for two people so it's reasonably priced. The bacon was the best part. Potatoes are deep fried and I like mine less greasy. A lot of customers came in so it's a popular spot. I loved that they were able to make me iced coffee with oatmilk. The staff is friendly and the food comes out fast. They will seat you or you can seat yourself. You order at the counter and they give you a number and they bring your food to you. If you come to the front, you walk up stairs but staff said there is a large parking lot in the back and a ramp for accessibility. I will definitely come here again!

Today I got the toasted salmon cream cheese bagel and it is absolutely deliciuos!!! This place is very popular, non stop people coming in but you can get in and out quickly. They are fast and you can get take-out if you are on the go.“

“Their signature soufflé pancakes“

“Thoroughly enjoyed my first visit to the charming, highly-rated Hello You're Welcome café. They make and bake everything in house- you can even see the ovens. Really friendly staff with a slight hippie vibe. Some items were made with almond flour, like their giant chocolate chip cookie, so I had to skip them (allergic). I was pleasantly overwhelmed by a delicious gigantic frittata slice with bacon, onions, and tater tots inside. Togadachi coffee is really interesting: the beans were fermented with lavender. Extra sugar helped me adjust to the unique flavor. The wall full of retail items features coffee beans in VHS boxes, which is a first! I love their mugs and bought one to take home.“

“Highly recommend. Service and food are both great!“

“Love to start my day with fresh orange juice and bagels here. Staff is welcoming and cheerful“

“Love their sandwiches! Delicious!!“

“Awesome healthy food! A ton of vegan options. And the price is great too. You'll meet alot of grassroots artists and cultural creatives here,as well as spiritual people. All tribes are welcome here!“

“The Huntington Tea Room is always a special experience. I love to bring first time visitors to The Huntington to the Tea Room. This time my guest was Vegan. The Vegan menu is perfect, elegant and delicious. We both had it. It was a huge hit. The service is always impeccable. It's always a lovely experience and a perfect ending to a day exploring the gardens and exhibits.“

“Breakfast goals achieved! Generous portions, delicious homemade biscuits, and an omelette that could serve two. Friendly staff made it even better. My favorite meal done right 💕☕“

“Walked into the café 15 minutes to closing time not sure if they would take us in, but they were very kind to us and didn’t rush us and we had excellent service. I really like how you order at the counter many great options on the menu. As a Mexican American, I appreciate well-made Mexican food. I had the enchiladas Oaxaqueña and the taquitos Dorados and both were excellent. They do very well on their presentation as well. Can’t wait to come back and try other things on the menu. Prices are a little on the high end but overall, I think it’s worth it. My only critiques, and they have nothing to do with the food, would be to not make it so cold inside the restaurant and it would be great if the bathroom had a normal sink without the push button kind, ideally one that is sensor operated. These things are totally peripheral and are not influencing my overall view of the café, but if by chance anyone who manages the restaurant is reading this, maybe they can help improve the overall experience.“

“I love supporting small businesses, especially women owned. Neighbors & Friends is the perfect place to come for a great meal and delicious coffee. It has a community atmosphere with a big communal table and I always leave wanting to buy all the merch and food in the display. Kaiy knew what she was doing when she opened this place. The hot and iced lattes with their unique holiday twists are yummy and I haven't had one food item that I wouldn't recommend. Don't sleep on the desserts, the lasagna or the pot pies!“

“Very healthy and delicious breakfast/lunch sandwiches (organic produce), salads and Coffee ☕️...and pastries...LAUSD Coffee cake the BEST 😋😋“

“Great coffee, great pastries, and an easy vibe. Street parking can be a little tricky depending on the time of day, but it’s worth it once you’re inside. There’s outdoor seating if you want some fresh air, and it’s right by the LA River bike path which makes it a perfect stop before or after a ride. Consistently solid spot.“

“The people at the Kawada Hotel recommended this wonderful diner. I walked in and fell in love with the place. I'm not a fancy person,but I may as well have been eating at a Michellin Stared restaurant. The gentleman behind the counter was friendly. I love ❤️ a good diner for breakfast. If I were to recommend something, it would be to have something other than plastic silverware. Bring the kids...“

“The staff was really rude, it was a guy in the back just ignoring the fact I had just got there to order... and didn't even greet or anything just stared and continued to do whatever he was doing.. wait for about 20mins before leaving.. I even had eye contact with him😒😒“

“es el mejor lugar los mejores cafes y postres ynoseles olvide llevar su rikisimo pastel selos recomiendo. está rikisimo todo“

“First time here and ordered their iced chai latte. The barista was very friendly and suggested I add honey vanilla syrup because their chai is more on the spicier side. I took her suggestion and the chai tasted great! I definitely could taste the note of spice but the honey vanilla helped balance out the flavors. They also sold various pastries that I’d like to try next time. The actual cafe is small but there’s some seating outside. Overall. I enjoyed my visit and is a place I recommend trying out!“

“👌👌👌👌👌👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍“

“I love the neighborhood cafe, my sister had mentioned she enjoyed it last time she came with a friend and I came to try it out. I loved the food, their breakfast burrito so yummy and their chilaquiles too. Loved their salsa. Overall great experience and a nice environment to get breakfast and catch up with a friend. Robert and Norma were super nice and would continue checking in on us to make sure we were doing well. Definitely recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“First time here. Shared the breakfast sandwich and the breakfast burrito. Both were good 👍 but the burrito was the favorite 🌯🫶 the green salsa it comes with yum! 🤤 the young ladies who work here are very sweet.
Clean even the bathroom.
Only negative parking 🫤“

“This one is a nice place to meet people & enjoy the surroundings of the way it was built in LA

Vegetarian options: Not bad in trying ya Vegetable Plate throw in the side you do your own dish put anything in there add ya Salad to it.“

“Republik Coffee is as solid as it gets. It has good food, good coffee, and a good ambiance, which makes it a great hang out spot.The breakfast burrito, an almond danish, and a hazelnut cappuccino. It's not a large breakfast burrito, but I felt like all off the ingredients were good quality. The danish was good,and the cappuccino was solid as well.“

“best place! been coming here for sometime. can't wait for them to open in altadena.“

“My favorite breakfast place when we visit DTLA. The atmosphere is excellent and it’s next to my favorite bar.“

“The Burlington Arcade is so gorgeous and mandarin coffee stand fits right in! While the storefront only allows 4 customers at a time, waiting outside doesn’t feel bothersome because you’re in such a beautiful space.

While they do have citrusy flavors on their menu, much of their focus is on serving Chinese coffee among classics. I got the gui hua latte (which only comes hot) and it really grew on me, with the complex flavor combination of coffee, slight spice, and florality. Their Vienna latte was smooth and rich while their honey yuzu fizz was bright and refreshing. There are a couple of tables in the walkway, but I wouldn’t count on doing work here or staying for a long period of time. Parking is pretty easy in the lot, though!“

“Beautiful setting and great food“

“Highlight Coffee Shop in Glendale, CA is a true gem for coffee lovers. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that sets the perfect tone for a cozy coffee experience.“

“I enjoyed the good quality, quick service, and ample seating area. Was a good place to work and my drink was refreshing. Bubble waffle with ice cream was a super treat. I’ll be seeing a lot more of hop cafe in Arcadia.“

“If I could give the food 20 out of five stars I would,
Not to take anything away from the service or atmosphere because they were also superb! The Swedish pancakes were just like my mother made on special occasions and the scone was so moist it didn’t even need butter! Most of the people in there were regulars. I’ll definitely be back often!“

“Excellent food at a reasonable price. We are in Pasadena for a wedding and just had breakfast at the Cordova Cafe my wife absolutely loved the lox and bagel. And I had the Cordova breakfast burrito it was excellent. 10/10“

“I enjoy CC for its smoothness. mostly I just get the regular drip coffee. yesterday like every visit the staff is friendly and customers are mostly local nice and polite. now I live in Maryland so I order CC online. still tasty but sitting at the marble counter makes it special“

“Todo es saludable y son amables“

“Definitely try one of their sandwiches, they’re really good! The service was friendly, and I had a great time overall. I loved the music and the atmosphere; it made me feel relaxed and calm during my lunchtime visit. I’ll definitely be going back again 🩷“

“Muy rico desayuno auntentico de Guatemala,servició excepcional empezando por la cajera y terminando con los meseros mi primera vez en este lugar y wow 10/10“

“Well, I'll start with the taste that crepes have. Soooo delicious! I can't get enough of those crepes. I guess I found a new favorite place!Second of all this is a family own place and I would suggest you all to stop by and try their goodies and support their small business!10 out of 10!!!“

“A little over 3 years ago, Fleur Cafe opened, and has been a fine success as a small, one-of family restaurant with excellent service and great food at reasonable prices. Now they have expanded their kitchen, and finally introduced an expanded menu with wonderful new dishes added to the popular favorites! I personally enjoy the outdoor dining option, but they have also got a nice little dining room. Prices have gone up a bit, but it is still a very reasonable breakfast, brnch and lunch choice.“
