Got a mocha latte during their salsa/bachata event on Sunday, delicious, good atmosphere, nice service, very small biz/neighborhood/community vibes.

Joseph was so friendly and welcoming! We got to visit twice during our trip. We were welcomed back with enthusiasm and you can tell the people who work here are part of and enjoy their community. I would highly recommend this place for EXCELLENT food service and atmosphere. We DEFINITELY be back 😀

Had a salmon bowl, it tasted bad. Salmon was over cooked, strangely watery. The seasoning was not great. My husband ordered the chicken tacos and they were bland. The staff was very kind and brought our dog a bowl of water. I was bummed b/c I wanted to like the place more. Will try again- but will try breakfast.

Service and staff were great! Nothing on them whatsoever. The salmon bowl was blazing hot, def microwaved on blast and overcooked. The tinga tacos also very microwave blast and all stuck together. The fries were burnt and mostly just air. I’m sorry, I wish I liked it, for real, but I felt bad spending 60 bucks on did that just didn’t hit :/

This charming café on York Blvd is a delightful spot with both indoor and outdoor seating options, plus reliable WiFi. The interior is beautifully decorated with elements of car culture, featuring motorcycles and vintage road signs. They frequently host community events, including the Makina car club car show, Carrera Arroyo, and Mercado, which add to the vibrant atmosphere alongside various shops on York. The chilaquiles taste just like my mom used to make, and the Mayan Mocha offers the ideal touch of indulgence. Highly recommend--10/10!

I've been coming to Highland Cafe for years (may I dare say a decade even). Not only is the coffee good, but the breakfast/brunch/lunch menus are fantastic. Every ingredient is always fresh and perfectly paired.
My go-to's are the Sunrise Breakfast Bowl, Huevos Rancheros, Cali Burrito, or their Wrap special. On occasion, a mimosa pairs well with any of my above choices.
Indeed, the friendly yet laid back local vibes, along with the hard work that Arnie puts into his restaurant is testament to why this establishment is a Highland Park staple.

A masala chai for $7 that’s basically all
milk and sugar?
Chilaquiles verses are my favorite at this spot.
Excellent food and great customer service!

A brew of Americano $5
Not a good coffee
If you plan to work while you drink the coffee, make sure you bring your own internet. Theirs is terrible WiFi. I don’t understand why business do not share 5G. What’s the reason to restrict internet speed? They won’t pay more to share what they already are paying for.

Very nice people but this was one of the most disappointing bagels I've ever purchased. $17 for Bagel and Lox. The Lox was discolored and there were WAY too many onions. Even the bagel was sliced unevenly. Will not be returning. Plz save your money.
