12 Best Cafes in Arcadia

“Stopped by on my way to work for my first visit, and I’m officially hooked! Found easy street parking right out front and ordered using the kiosk inside. It has a small interior and there were a few customers inside, however the worker was very quick with all our orders! I got a tiramisu iced latte, a matcha pastry, and a ham & cheese croissant sandwich, all three for just $8! You can’t beat that price point, especially given the quality. The coffee had a distinct tiramisu flavor, the pastry was perfectly balanced, and the sandwich was warm and crispy. Definitely going back!“

“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.“

“Very chill, good food, clean, the place was really cute, and the maids were so nice. Only problem was one of the maids was training and couldn't play the board games with my group but I won't take a star off for that. I hope this business does good.“

“Simple and delicious food, with a wide range of coffee and a variety of food to try, perfect for coming here with friends!“

“I have been going to this restaurant since I was a little child with my grandparents. The strawberry waffle 🧇 was always my favorite. 😍 My husband and I went yesterday for breakfast and the strawberry 🍓 waffle were just as good as I remembered! A thin waffle covered in strawberries with a ring of whipped and in the center. The waffle absorbs the strawberries for a delicious taste in every bite. They still have the best strawberry waffles!!!!😍🍓🧇“

“Really excited to see Smoke Tiger Coffee Lab take over the old Starbucks spot. Arcadia has always been a bit light on standout, specialty coffee spots, so having this popular chain from Korea land here is a welcome breath of fresh air.

The space got a nice refresh—clean aesthetic, relaxed vibe, and definitely a cool new place to hang out, catch up with friends, or just chill for a bit. The menu has plenty of variety, whether you are after a properly pulled espresso drink or one of their rich matcha teas (definitely worth trying if you like good quality matcha that isn't just pure sugar).

Arcadia definitely needs more spots like this that aren't just the usual mega-chains. It's already drawing a fun crowd, and I'll definitely be adding it to my regular rotation.“

“Literally the warmest, kindest service I have EVER had. Unreal. And the food is soooo fresh and delicious. And we are serious food snobs, so we mean it. Come here immediately and feel the love!“

“I am someone who hates sweet drinks but my girl insisted ask me to take try and you know what. I absolutely love this milk tea! The flavor is rich and balanced, not too sweet. Smooth texture and great taste, will definitely order again. Credit goes to my girl who insisted me to try it. Will come back for other selections. Kudos to staff who is efficient enough for fast service.“

“Place has been good since day one. Good since the mask were a thing. Yes it has gone through several changes over the years. Food is great people are great. Don’t expect fast service when it’s busy every day. Brown sugar boba the best 10/10 fried medium spice 10/10. Best boba in California. Thank you 🙏🏼“

“Jokers coffee has a great selection and assortment of items!! My favorite is the boba drinks or smoothies. Everytime I come here I have a great time, not too packed or empty. We usually come sit with a group of friends or gather our orders to go. One of the few unique spots you'll find in LA. The only thing I want you ahead of time is the parking lot. It's small... Be careful, I've seen multiple drivers somehow hit poles or other cars and it's not fun to see someone damage a vehicle and then leave... Or move to another spot and pretend they didn't do it. I've made eye contact with 2 strangers on separate occasions that hit someone's car and then said oopsie. Tried making a joke and then kept going. Luckily it wasn't my car but that means someone else might be unhappy about the situation.“

“Very cute 😍 and convenient, if you need to go to H mart.“
