10 Best Cafes in Downey

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

“When we went to Porto's Bakery and cafe we had no idea that there would be tons of food to select from. We had a cheese & spicy pepper potato ball, and the savory sampler. We loved every thing that we ate. The place was clean and the staff was more than helpful. Can't wait to go back.“

“I ordered the cinnamon oat latte, and I'm usually not a fan of oatmilk but it was balanced so well against the espresso and the cinnamon that it didn't dominate the flavor. It was a very smooth drink, not too sweet, not too bitter, and not too strong.

My wife got the strawberry matcha latte, and while the matcha was of a decent grade and quality, the strawberry isn't a puree, nor is it like a strawberry creme or milk added in, it's an additive in powder form and she doesn't tend to like that.

Their chocolate croissant, which we shared, was heated up as requested, it came with a line of melted chocolate drizzle on top, which I think was similar to Nutella but less thick in terms of consistency. It was also topped with powder sugar, and it had an inserted line of darker chocolate, maybe 65%, so pretty balanced against the sweetness of everything else involved.

The area the cafe is located in is nice, it's a large promenade with several nicer restaurants (it's also sort of attached to it's restaurant counterpart) and there's plenty to walk around and get some shopping done or walk off the drinks and baked sweets. Plenty of parking as well, and the mall itself is only a block or two north from the cafe.“

“I had the matcha cream brûlée with a snoopy design on top. Super cute! Matcha was alright, tasted fine. Wasn’t a big fan of the honey (I think?) on the bottom though. Kinda overpowering, wish it was maybe mixed into the drink or something.. will come back to try other drinks tho.“

“Small place. Super friendly staff. Self serve boba. Have 20 different flavors. Some interesting. Some super good. They let you taste test which is awesome. Prices are decent keeping in mind the times now. They have a food menu. Had the spicy shrimp and pork wonton soup. It didn't disappoint. Hit the spot. Will definitely be visiting this place again !“

“7 Leaves is hands down my favorite spot for a refreshing drink, and I never leave disappointed. Their Thai tea is consistently amazing, rich, creamy, and perfectly sweetened without being overwhelming. It's the kind of drink that feels like a little moment of indulgence every time I have it. What sets 7 Leaves apart is the consistency. No matter when I stop by, whether it's a busy afternoon or a quiet evening, the quality is always spot on. The balance of flavors in their drinks is always perfect, and their variety ensures there’s something for everyone.I’ve ventured beyond the Thai tea a few times, and every drink has been just as good from their milk teas to their fresh fruit options. The drinks are always made with care, and you can tell they use quality ingredients. The staff is friendly, and the vibe of the place is always welcoming and relaxed. It’s become my go-to destination when I need a pick-me-up or just want to treat myself. I can always count on 7 Leaves to deliver a satisfying, delicious experience every time. I highly recommend it to anyone who appreciates high-quality drinks and great service.“

“As first-time boba drinkers, my kids and I absolutely loved it! Everything was so good, and oh my goodness the chicken bites were amazing. My son couldn’t stop talking about them! I think we definitely found a new favorite spot. The food and drinks were delicious, we will definitely be returning, and the staff was incredible. Thank you for the great customer service and excellent food!“

“I enjoy having breakfast with my friends Good food“

“Love this place. Everything we’ve tried so far has been fantastic.“

“I had an excellent lunch at this Panera Bread today! The service was efficient and friendly, with the staff making sure my meal was prepared just the way I like it. I had the Bacon Turkey Bravo, which was fantastic—crispy bacon and tender turkey on fresh, soft bread. The ambiance was just right—bright and airy with a calm atmosphere. It’s the perfect place to enjoy a delicious meal in a laid-back setting. I’ll definitely be coming back for more!“
