Found this pop up coffee shop inside the Plaza Bonita shopping center whilst last minute Christmas shopping...I got the toffee nut latte (I can't remember the creative nickname they have for it right now) and it was really good! Location is good, prices are a bit higher than desired, staff was nice, I'd definitely rather grab a cup of Joe from here than the other star guy!

I loved their iced coffee and horchata. The horchata taste like an original Mexican horchata should taste.

I've been waiting a while before visiting the Three Boys Coffee stand at the Westfield Plaza Bonita Mall. Usually it was because I purchased my lunch there and preferred not to carry two items around. Well for whatever reason, I finally went today and wound up pretty happy in the end. I picked a good time to get my photos and then shopped around a little more before I made my order. The baristas were highly courteous- I was very impressed with them in both attitude and service. I am one who always enjoys chatting with baristas at the coffee shops I visit. If I find they lack good service skills, I very rarely return. But no worries today at Three Boys! They were terrific! This coffee stand is pretty impressive! It's at a good location at the mall on the second floor and pretty much in the center of the mall itself. It's not far from the escalators, so just about everyone who goes up to the second deck is going to walk by Three Boys Coffee. I see from Yelp photos that this stand once had its own store space at the mall. But times have changed! This stand is pretty clean and well organized. Besides coffee specialties, they offer danishes, and tea choices as well. My only regret today was that I missed the fact Three Boys offers may favorite beverage! The Mexican mocha! I guess I have a lesson learned from today's visit - look at the entire menu!! I won't miss "El Abuelo" next time! But for now, "The Mammas Boy" served my needs for a good latte very well! A very serviceable and a delightful visit! Stop by sometime! Recommend: HIGH

I experienced poor guest service. Its unfortunate because I recall my first encounter several months ago was positive. I’m curious if the owner or manager is interested in chatting about it.

I am absolutely thrilled to write this glowing review for Adriana, the exceptional employee at the coffee kiosk. From the moment I walked up to the counter, I was met with a warm and genuine smile that set the tone for an incredible coffee experience. Adriana's dedication to her craft and unparalleled passion for customer service shine through in every interaction she has with customers.What truly sets Adriana apart is her remarkable attention to detail. She not only takes the time to remember regular customers' names and preferences, but she also goes the extra mile to tailor each drink to perfection. Whether it's a classic cappuccino or a unique custom order, Adriana's barista skills are nothing short of remarkable. Her latte art is truly a work of art, transforming every cup into a delightful masterpiece.But it's not just about the coffee - it's about the way Adriana makes you feel as a customer. Her friendly demeanor and genuine interest in connecting with people create a welcoming atmosphere that keeps customers coming back. She takes the time to engage in conversations, making you feel like a valued friend rather than just another customer in line.Adriana's efficiency and multitasking abilities are awe-inspiring. Even during the morning rush, she manages to keep the line moving smoothly while still taking the time to connect with each customer. Her ability to maintain her composure under pressure is truly commendable and speaks volumes about her dedication to providing top-notch service.In an era where outstanding customer service can sometimes feel like a rarity, Adriana is a breath of fresh air. Her positive attitude, unwavering dedication, and genuine passion for her work are evident in every cup she prepares and every smile she shares. The coffee kiosk isn't just a place to grab a quick drink - it's an experience, thanks to the remarkable presence of Adriana.In conclusion, Adriana is the heart and soul of the coffee kiosk.

Rating: NEGATIVE ZERO TO THE 10TH POWER!DO NOT! I REPEAT... DO NOT GO HERE!!!Today, my friend and I got very ill from the drinks.My friend had an Iced Americano and nothing else, I had an Iced Hazelnut Latte.My friend is a cafè barista, and we both got sharp excruciating abdominal pain within 15-30 mins of consuming very, very unspeakable poorest taste of coffee beans. Lowest grade. Not worth the cost.So, sad to have made this my first NEGATIVE ZERO TO THE 20TH POWER REVIEW.P.S. Another friend told if she new we were going ahead of time, she would've said, "No! Don't even go. The worst!"

Five stars for their flare on a Mexican mocha. Loved it the flavor is strong, but damnit that coffee stayed on my mind. Located upstairs in the middle of plaza Bonita mall. Many other coffee shops have tried to make a Mexican mocha. This place hit the nail right on. Go support.

Wishing this place gets more attention because its honestly one of the best coffee places! If you love coffee this place is for you. My boyfriend and I were on our usual trip to Plaza Bonita when we were searching for a coffee pick-me-up when we stumbled upon the Three Boys Coffee kiosk. My boyfriend ordered "The Pretty Boy" which is a caramel latte, which I need to mention he is very picky, but he inhaled his drink in under 5mins! He even said the coffee is better than Better Buzz which is one of his favorites. For myself, I ordered "The 3 Boy" which is a little a sweet for my liking, but it was a tres leches latte which is a given, but even though it was really good. The drinks were the perfectly balanced, the coffee was not overpowered and not filled with iced unlike other places. The service was really great, the staff was very friendly! The kiosk is very clean and they used high quality ingredients. I can't believe I overlooked this placed especially when they had a store, but none the less we definitely will be back maybe even as regulars!

Welp, sometimes you look for iced coffee on Yelp and end up inside Plaza Bonita on a Saturday! Didn't realize this was in a mall, and they lost their storefront and now have a coffee kiosk on the 2nd floor. It was a bit of a goose chase but this iced horchata with espresso is delightful! My wife got a small cafe de olla which she also loved!
