“Amazing service! Nice elderly couple running the place. They have a great selection of teas, coffee (including Vietnamese coffee), and smoothies/slushes. I got the honeydew boba, which I believe comes automatically with non dairy milk. Overall, great place inside of the market to get a quick drink.“

“Picked up a smoothie, vegan muffin, and a pecan bar this morning. Mary Lane’s treats are always a hit.“

“BOG, Wa Sai Watermelon, Strawberry Basil Ginger Lemonade!“

“Best popcorn chicken ever👍👍👍“

“Best coffee I’ve had. So many different flavors that I have a different kind every other day.“

“Guys I literally thought some of the photos must be fake... they're not. I got exquisite latte art (good coffee too!), beautiful plates of delicious food. I have no idea why this place only has 88 reviews, but the 4.8 stars is accurate! On top of that, it's a very cute location. Please try out Old Town Caffe!

We got the Salmon Bagel, Sweet Latte, Ube Frozen drink, and Egg Avocado Toast and they all exceeded expectations :)“

“Their signature soufflé pancakes“

“Guerrilla Cafecito is a great breakfast burrito joint & coffee house from the team behind Guerrilla Taco. The GTLA (steak & papas) breakfast burrito is the best in the city. Tortillas from Mejorado, so you already know. My only complaint… a little stingy on the salsa. But it’s 2024, so bidenomics and whatnot. I get it. But don’t let that stop you. The burritos here are out of this world.“

“Delicious !! Came with 5 friends, everything we ordered tasted soooo yummy 10/10 😍 service was extraordinary, our servers Heber and Xitali were so pleasant and attentive. We were so pleased with the food and service, we already want to come back!“

“Going local-origin for my next batch of pumpernickel bagels. Choco-latte and Nicaraguan chocolate down here are legit crazy awesome!“

“First time here, parking is tight. Paid lots and street parking are what I saw, possibly more around back. Lots of people outside as there are many offices attached. Very clean over here, just outside of down town. Small menu but good and fresh! Fair prices. Seating available inside, also has an actual restaurant as well. Friend staff. Would recommend and would return, especially since it’s for a good cause. Keep it up!“

“I was craving a donut one day and when I found this place I was not disappointed! They had tasty gluten free donuts and I got a iced strawberry matcha drink that was delicious as well. The space has an inviting atmosphere and the staff is very helpful and friendly as well.“

“Wow wow wow wow.

Great food. Everything is fresh and flavorful. Cooked to order. I had the chorizo and fried egg torta. It's a day later, and I'd love to have another right now!

Happy and accommodating service. Nice seating outside.“

“Modern, clean cafe with yummy Asian inspired treats. We got their chocolate mochi brownie, miso cinnamon roll, and cream bun.

All were delicious, but the mochi brownie was our favorite. The miso perfectly complements the cinnamon roll and the roll still tastes sweet. The cream bun was so soft and not too sweet.

Street parking available nearby. Cafe has good seating, high ceilings, and modern decor.“

“Excellent coffee, fresh pastries, and whole beans!

Such a wonderful addition to the neighborhood. It’s clear the owner cares deeply about the community and routinely offers popup opportunities for other businesses in the area.“

“Love their sandwiches! Delicious!!“

“Republik Coffee is as solid as it gets. It has good food, good coffee, and a good ambiance, which makes it a great hang out spot.The breakfast burrito, an almond danish, and a hazelnut cappuccino. It's not a large breakfast burrito, but I felt like all off the ingredients were good quality. The danish was good,and the cappuccino was solid as well.“

“The people at the Kawada Hotel recommended this wonderful diner. I walked in and fell in love with the place. I'm not a fancy person,but I may as well have been eating at a Michellin Stared restaurant. The gentleman behind the counter was friendly. I love ❤️ a good diner for breakfast. If I were to recommend something, it would be to have something other than plastic silverware. Bring the kids...“

“es el mejor lugar los mejores cafes y postres ynoseles olvide llevar su rikisimo pastel selos recomiendo. está rikisimo todo“

“Always spotted this place when I’m in the area and decided to try it. The food took me by surprise. I had the chicken and waffle plate, the chicken and was nice and crunchy and juicy. This place is very hidden and located near the post office of HP. A true hidden place this cafe is. The service was wonderful! Always checking up on us if we were fine and if the food was good. Highly recommend!“

“The staff was really rude, it was a guy in the back just ignoring the fact I had just got there to order... and didn't even greet or anything just stared and continued to do whatever he was doing.. wait for about 20mins before leaving.. I even had eye contact with him😒😒“

“Que Delicia! Todo Fresco! Y Vegano <3“

“It's so good. I had the French toast because I always get Mexican - enchiladas or chilaquiles - so wanted to change it up and it was so custardy, delicious, bathed with strawberries and bananas. I also want to support Gloria's and go against an unfair boycott of this wonderful local restaurant.“

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

“Immediately after I walked in I was greeted in a real way and asked what I was feeling like. They made me the special they have currently which was delicious. I also bought their Everything Bagel Croissant which was also delicious and unique. Geeky vibe with cozy energy. Excited to return.“

“A little pricey but tasty. There was a fly in the store though, feel kinda bad for whoever ends up eating the donuts it touched in the display case ? I would beware of the ready-to-serve items. Feel like they shouldn’t prop the doors open?“

“Very healthy and delicious breakfast/lunch sandwiches (organic produce), salads and Coffee ☕️...and pastries...LAUSD Coffee cake the BEST 😋😋“

“congratulation J&A's 25th anniversary! great food 🎉👍“

“This place was so amazing! I specifically want to talk about the service because it was phenomenal. Zen was amazing, and he had a great attitude and was super kind and interactive. He gave us an unforgettable experience. 100% would recommend.“

“muy ricos los postres y los desayunos todooooo 😍“

“Highlight Coffee Shop in Glendale, CA is a true gem for coffee lovers. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that sets the perfect tone for a cozy coffee experience.“

“best place! been coming here for sometime. can't wait for them to open in altadena.“

“Muy rico desayuno auntentico de Guatemala,servició excepcional empezando por la cajera y terminando con los meseros mi primera vez en este lugar y wow 10/10“

“If I could give the food 20 out of five stars I would,
Not to take anything away from the service or atmosphere because they were also superb! The Swedish pancakes were just like my mother made on special occasions and the scone was so moist it didn’t even need butter! Most of the people in there were regulars. I’ll definitely be back often!“

“Zweet Cafe has great service, food and comfortable seating (which is crucial for me since I stay and write most of the time.)“

“I came to the cafe an hour before closing, usually baristas will have a unwelcoming attitude but they welcomed me with the warmest embrace, especially the curly haired girl who complimented my glasses haha. Superba cold brew is a sleek classic drink that is for the go, I’d recommend it! Next time I’ll pay another visit for food and to see the nice barista with curly hair again ☺️ YAY SUPERBA!“

“What I had
Breakfast burrito with steak ($15.5+$3)
Horchata latte with oat milk $6

What he had
Turkey bacon egg bagel $11.5
Vietnamese iced coffee $6.5

ORDER WHAT I HAD! The steak breakfast burrito was absolutely delicious. Great seasoning, great portions, evenly distributed so every bite had a little bit of everything. The steak were little strips, but it made it tender and easy to consume. The iced horchata latte was sweet and cinnamony with a great espresso taste, no watered down taste!

What he had didn't impress me as much, but it doesn't mean it wasn't good. It was fresh, and the eggs were fluffy and made perfect, but I'm not a big fan of turkey bacon on a sandwich and the bagel wasn't my style of bagel (I like them chewy). His Vietnamese latte was not sweet at all which typically is mixed with condensed milk so idk if a step was mistaken. We actually ended up mixing our coffees together.

I'm sure if we had told the gentleman he would've just made a new one or added sweetness, because he was so kind and inviting, but we were too focused on our food to really care.

Atmosphere is what took a star down. Cute and clean place but it was a bit stuffy. Would've just ate outside where the air felt nicer, but the one table was in the sun so it wasn't ideal.“

“Definitely go for the coffee. Delicious speciality lattes, albeit much smaller than you would expect.

Ordered food on here on a few occasions and its ridiculously overpriced. Remembered getting grits and a coffee and it was the most underwhelming $30 I’ve ever spent. Chicken sandwich is slightly better though if you want to drop $18 on a little sandwich.“

“Went here on my birthday on October 23rd this year with my family and Maid Nagi was very attentive, helpful, and very sweet. I ordered the SR Kawaii Combo and got the Omurice with Ketchup writing as my Entree, Ichigo Cheesecake for dessert, and Sakura Flower Milky Tea. The food here is made fresh and hot, while the taste for everything was really delicious and I had a good time here. Maid Nagi also wrote Happy Birthday on my Omurice as well as my polaroid included in the set which I thought was very cute and generous. The place was really elegant and clean. I recommend Arcane if you’re wanting to celebrate a birthday, just want to chill out with friends, or family.“

“wow first time here food was excellent. very nice customer service 👍💯.can't wait to come back 😀“

“I took my granddaughter to the Huntington Library & Gardens, and we enjoyed the Traditional Tea along with a Charcuterie Board. I hadn't been to the Rose Garden Tea Room for years and I think it has really improved. We enjoyed the charcuterie board so much that we barely had room for all the other assorted goodies. Everything was delicious and there was lots of it. We agreed that a couple of the sandwich breads were a little too strong on the herbs, drowning out the flavor of the fillings. but all in all we had a lovely time. “

“The place had delicious food. This place had many people coming in and was crowded during brunch time. I can see why so many people come here. The drinks and food are excellent but the seating was a bit of a challenge since it was quite noisy.“

“BREAKFAST, LUNCH AND DINNER WITH THE MOST AMICABLE SMILING FACES AND OF COURSE THE BEST SERVICE EVER GERARD FROM SYDNEY AUSTRALIA“

“Unusually pleasant tiny coffeeshop in a somewhat magical setting- - if it’s an odd time on a weekday, I am guessing. I came on a weekday afternoon and waited quite a while in line behind less than a dozen people for at least twenty minutes. It seemed excessive, to be honest- but maybe people were on break. The staff seemed really pleasant otherwise, and were also working hard - maybe something had malfunctioned and they had slowed down.
I noticed a patron sipping from an actual ceramic cup-always nicer than paper- andI ordered the gui hua latte. Both the flavor and the physical presentation of the drink were beautiful.“

“The staff are so nice here! It's right on the bike path and I love to ride there.

During the week, the atmosphere is so nice and cozy. It's a shared business space, which can make for some interesting people watching.

I wish they were open a little later during the summer because they are always closing just when I'm craving that last coffee of the day.

I avoid it on the weekends because the line is usually out the door and the crowd is usually pretty unwelcoming, especially if you try to ride there.“

“My husband and I rode our bikes to this cute little café. We didn’t have to wait when we arrived. Service was good. I didn’t have to ask twice for refill of water. I got the shrimp spinach salad. The large shrimp was seasoned great and perfectly cooked.“
