“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.“

“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.“

“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!!!“

“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!“

“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!!“

“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“

“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!“

“The chicken fried steak and eggs was AMAZING!!! OMG the gravy was delicious, it was like the steak juice was in this mix. The sourdough bread was soft and delicious witj a little butter and grape jelly. I dipped the bread in the gravy and almost fainted at how good it was lol. The coffee is bomb the service was great and the vibe was chill. We will go again!Chicken fried steak was a hit ya'll !“

“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.“

“Visited this cozy spot and was instantly won over, not just by the super yummy, kid-friendly meals, but also by all those lovely little details. Every element, from high-quality utensils to bowls and curry pots designed for easy handling, has been thoughtfully selected. Even the bamboo tray added a cute, homely vibe. Service might lean towards the slow side, but the wait is worth it when you know each dish is freshly prepared. It felt like each dish was made with care just for us.“

“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 ...“

“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.“

“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“

“I enjoyed the chicken and waffles. Great flavor in the waffles and the texture of the waffles was 5 star. ( I was told that unicorn tears in the batter is the secret) and the wings had a wonderful crunch. (It was not just a heavy breading) with a juicy flavorful meat. The vinegar base chili sauce mix well with the chicken awesome flavor. (The use of the tears of past enemies) perfection.It's a small place with a big friendly atmosphere.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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“

“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“

“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 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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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 !“

“Relaxing walk around the park and enjoy lunch at the Peacock Cafe with friends or familyParking: Some days might be difficult but most of the days it is easy to get parking.Kid-friendliness: Children get to walk around the path or play around the lawn area.“

“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.“

“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 .“

“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.“

“I have loved this restaurant right after it first opened, with the original owner. Since then it has changed hands and the new owner has kept up its quality remarkably. Great menu and not bad pricing. It’s a cute space in Old Town Monrovia.“

“Super good coffee and nice customer services. I try to come every once a week. Especially love their white chocolate latte with caramel. I ask to be little less sweet. Since it's outdoor make sure to wear long sleeves but mosquitoes don't come out until around 3-4pm I feel like“

“I absolutely adored the aesthetics of this shop. It was so peaceful and the staff was super friendly and helpful. The drink itself was super on point. I don’t treat myself to dessert drinks often but the matcha cheesecake was totally worth it. I also loved the special cup they put it in, it was a fun soda shaped container you don’t normally see.Wheelchair accessibility: Ground floor. No bathrooms available to public“

“Fairly new to the area & I've been going for a place for fresh juices, found this one & it's great! I asked the girl what kind of juice she suggested & she made me the "vampiro" which is super yummy!! Also got a fruit plate & everything was very refreshing. Definitely coming back :)“

“Excellent Mexican food, the quesadillas are made with grilled tortillas by hand, they are delicious, quite large and at a fairly affordable price, this food reminds me a lot of the food my grandmother made in Mexico, especially the red sauce.“

“Cute boba place in the heart of downtown Covina on Citrus. They have a spacious dining area and looked like it was a former frozen yogurt shop. Decor was very cute and they still had Christmas decorations up. In addition to drinks, they offer bubble waffles, avocado toasts, and a variety of fried snacks. Order at the counter or kiosk. I got the Tarolicious (available only on weekends), the super fruit tea, and the lychee green tea with lychee jelly. All the drinks came out really good. The Tarolicious was not the typical powdered taro that other places use, but rather a house made taro paste that's smeared in the cup. It was tasty and I really enjoyed it (once you mix up the taro with the rest of the drink). The super fruit tea was refreshing and at the perfect level of sweetness at 70% sweet. The lychee drink is not on the menu but rather a "custom drink". There was only one girl working when I was there and I saw a constant flow of people coming in to order, so naturally it took a while for my drink to come out. Not sure if that's their normal staffing l, but I would recommend that if you're in a rush, ask to see how long it will take to get your drink. They also have a private party space available in the back, contact them for pricing and availability. Check in on Yelp to get 15% off your order!“

“Super cute cafe with some neon decor and a little shrine to Selena in the corner. Anything for Selenas! Come and gossip while you sip on your cafecito and enjoy desayunos. I had to start my breakfast out with an iced cafe de olla latte. Rad Coffee was tempting me right down the street in downtown Covina but I had to choose this over Rad! The taro-chata and vanilla vice lattes sound good and I need to try those next!Chismosa's chilaquiles are served either red or green and come with beans, salsa, cotija cheese, onion and crema in a generous portion and both tasted really sweet to my tastebuds. I couldn't quite pin down what ingredient made it taste like candy (chimi?), but this isn't a complaint.The West Cochina burrito with pork belly, bacon, eggs, potatoes and salda verde is sizeable but not too big. I'm thinking of the breakfast burrito from Alpha Omega down the street as a burrito that's way too big and needs a full three hands to chomp down. The burrito was not as sweet as the chilaquiles.You check-in to the restaurant on an iPad out front, and my wait was shorter than estimated.Parking: Public street parking, lot parking, or garage parking are ample enough and all in proximity to this cafe.“

“Parking/Wait: There is a very small lot with ~5 spots. Never had problems parking there, and there is also a bunch of street parking.Food/Drinks: Their Earl Grey Milk Tea makes my knees weak. Never tried their food, but they have your typical Taiwanese snacks and more. Boba quality is also pretty good (very qq), but be careful if you want some when they are ~1 hr from closing (always out of boba by then). Ambiance/Service: Nice little shop with a bunch of seating. You can definitely study here since there is free wifi. Service is always fast, and I never had to wait more than 5 minutes for my drink. Only one or two people working there at a time, so maybe your mileage will vary.Sustainability: Plastic everything but that's pretty standard. Summary: When I'm back home, this is one of the Boba places that I have to go to. I'm a sucker for Earl Grey, and they do it gooood here.“

“I’ve been to many coffee houses, but this caught the eye with its round structure, it’s nice .I ordered a Horchata latte,it was flavorful. The service was friendly and I received my coffee in a timely manner. The interior is roomy with tables to sit down to enjoy your coffee and breakfast .There’s plenty of parking with the handicap stalls near the front entrance. The only thing is in my opinion it’s a tad too pricey compared to the other coffee houses I’ve been to.Vegetarian options: Refer to menuParking: Shared parking lot with other businesses on the premisesKid-friendliness: Kid friendlyWheelchair accessibility: This is a assessable handicap establishment“

“Delicious, unique brunch food! (My friend and I shared ube french toast and mango habanero omelette.) A bit expensive compared to other nearby brunch restaurants, but the food is much more unique that makes it worth it. Will definitely be back!“

“Went out for a walk this morning in Downtown Glendora. Needed something refreshing! Been here before and they didn't let me down before. I went with the Refresher #2: recommendation from young lady taking my drink order. Definitely coming back again to try other items on the menu.“

“Update: 2024. Been back since my “ missing avocado toast” incident. Almond butter croissant is excellent and told to WAIT for the toast when paying and receiving my bakery items. They have seating for small parties of 1-4……..The service is friendly but they’re all trying to help each other with larger orders and no one verifying completeness but of course they charged full order with $8 avocado toast missing. And yet, I’ll be back because those damn chocolate almond croissants are ridiculously good.“

“Have been here a couple of times and the service was excellent both times. The owner is always friendly and helpful. The food is excellent. We've had a variety of foods and everything was delocious. I would highly recommend this restaurant.“
