50 Best Cafes near Temple City

“customer service and delicious tea ! love this place!“

“Delicious restaurant and great atmosphere! 😋“

“Staff was not helpful, not friendly and not welcoming. They didn't even welcome us when we walked in. They didn't ask if we were good once we had the food. They were not helpful in explaining the menu as a first time customer. When I questioned the menu, I got short responses with attitude. The place was great, my kids loved it but the staff not so great.“

“Boba options are plentiful and there are several food options as well. I live their tomato and pesto sandwich, but you'll have to be aware that it takes time for the food to be made. Every time I order food, it takes about 20 minutes to almost an hour sometimes to get the food.
If you're able to call in advance for pickup, I'm not sure if it will be any faster. I typically order the teas without boba since it's already quite sweet (and delicious). Would recommend if you want to study or do your work here. It's a lot quieter than Starbucks, unless people are talking.“

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

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

“A cozy café with a Korean vibe. I had been following posts about its opening on a thread, so I felt a sense of familiarity with it. The dessert and drink menu were simple and not over-the-top, which I really liked. I was surprised to see more foreigners than Koreans, even though cafés like this usually attract a lot of Koreans. The atmosphere was lovely as well.“

“Absolutely in love with this place. Gigi and her mom have built something special here. The BEST gluten free donuts I have ever had. I’ve been gluten free for five years and have been consistently disappointed with crumbly, dry donuts. Not anymore. This place has changed the game. Their donuts are perfectly moist and amazingly flavorful. I am beaming after visiting this place. Easily my new favorite spot and I will definitely be coming back. Impeccable vibes from the super chill baristas.“

“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.“

“Just kind of wandered into this place. It was clean, and a good selection of breakfast and light lunch fare (sandwiches, salads, etc). I had the vegan sandwich that came with a side of mixed greens. Everything was super fresh, the tempeh was flavorful, I loved the creamy spread, and the sourdough was perfectly toasted. And not a bad price! You order at the front and they give you a number, and the food came out pretty quickly. The staff were super friendly. Not a huge space, but there several tables open at 12:45pm on a Monday. 1 hour parking on the street (they might also have a garage, but I parked on the street).“

“Such a lovely experience! It's a little expensive and the selections, while beautiful contain food choices that would not logically appeal to most diners (mushroom sandwich, caviar on salmon, for example). I loved the wide range of choices but my guest could not eat everything, sadly. All so fresh and creative!!“

“I love supporting small businesses, especially women owned. Neighbors & Friends is the perfect place to come for a great meal and delicious coffee. It has a community atmosphere with a big communal table and I always leave wanting to buy all the merch and food in the display. Kaiy knew what she was doing when she opened this place. The hot and iced lattes with their unique holiday twists are yummy and I haven't had one food item that I wouldn't recommend. Don't sleep on the desserts, the lasagna or the pot pies!“

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

“Love their sandwiches! Delicious!!“

“Their signature soufflé pancakes“

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

“First time here and ordered their iced chai latte. The barista was very friendly and suggested I add honey vanilla syrup because their chai is more on the spicier side. I took her suggestion and the chai tasted great! I definitely could taste the note of spice but the honey vanilla helped balance out the flavors. They also sold various pastries that I’d like to try next time. The actual cafe is small but there’s some seating outside. Overall. I enjoyed my visit and is a place I recommend trying out!“

“very delicious food is always fresh the food is very good from sandwiches to bagels waffles smoothies cant forget the owners are very nice and polite always have the place clean“

“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.“

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

“I was looking for a cute coffee shop to go to with my husband and this definitely met my expectations. We felt transported to another country immediately because of the aesthetics they have curated here. We had to wait about 35-45 minutes for the coffee and the baristas were nice. I got a ham and cheese croissant (I would rate it a 7/10) and the Vienna with oatmilk (which was the best out of the Toasty and Matcha) in my opinion (8.5/10). My husband got a croffin and the Toasty, and he liked the croffin more than the Toasty. The croffin was really good, and I agreed that the Toasty didn’t blow me away. We ordered Matcha for my sister to go and she said initially it was average, but as you stirred it up it got better. Overall this was a really cute coffee shop with good pastries, nice baristas, and good coffee. If you’re open to wait for the line, I would definitely make my way down to mandarin to try out their coffee!“

“I enjoyed the good quality, quick service, and ample seating area. Was a good place to work and my drink was refreshing. Bubble waffle with ice cream was a super treat. I’ll be seeing a lot more of hop cafe in Arcadia.“

“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“

“Food at Cafe Valer is fresh, tasty and nicely presented for a cafe, service is friendly (albeit rushed), and there’s clean and sufficient seating inside and outside the Cafe. I stop here every time I’m in Covina area and have never been disappointed.“

“First time visiting, lived in El Monte for 5 years never knew this place was here; small but spacious nice little diner to come have a meal. I had the French Toast Combo with a large orange juice came out to $22.20. With a $7.80 tip came to $30 flat. Food was fine/delicious, place seemed clean. Lot of help in the kitchen, pretty fast service, no complaints. The atmosphere gives like veterans POW/Elk Lodge/small town/diner vibes, a handful of older(40/50+) dudes, a young teen couple and a family with toddler was here when I sat in at 10am on Wednesday morning. Parking: I was able to find a spot,but it is limited-if busy.“

“almond and hazelnut butter!!!“

“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.“

“I have been here twice now and I will be back many more times. All of the food has been absolutely delicious, the service is super fast, and the atmosphere is very comfy and welcoming. I've sat inside and outside, and enjoyed both spots, but you can't beat an outside seat when the weather is great. I also appreciate that if you order juice you get a whole real glass of juice and not one of those itty bitty half glasses. The coffee is also very good, it's not like the burnt cheap dinner style coffee, it's good robust coffee that actually has flavor. I've tried 3 different breakfast entrees now and all were great, but I love the pork, it's cooked to perfection.“

“The food & service is always on point“

“Found about this place during anime night mart where I met Lele and Sue and they were both awesome. So I visited during the Hololive Cafe and it was packed. I had to wait a while but finally just took two of the food and one dessert back. The chicken was well seasoned and even the rice was good. I would buy this everyday.“

“Love the ambiance. Great food. Great service and excellent drinks are served at the bar. Great for an intimate dinner or for a special occasion.“

“Excellent food at a reasonable price. We are in Pasadena for a wedding and just had breakfast at the Cordova Cafe my wife absolutely loved the lox and bagel. And I had the Cordova breakfast burrito it was excellent. 10/10“

“What truly sets this place apart is the incredible hospitality. The owners make us feel like family every time we visit, and their positive energy is contagious. The prices are very reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. We even drive a long way to get our food and drinks here, and it’s always worth the trip.“

“We had a wonderful cozy experience headlined with a delicious Turkey Cranberry Sandwich. My partner had a Chicken pesto which was scrumptious. The new owners are very courteous and took extra time to ensure we had everything we needed, even giving us a complimentary Cinnamon roll. The environment and location is as sweet of a neighborhood experience you can find in the LA area.“

“Excellent service, sweet ladies, great prices & a humble atmosphere�“

“i have been coming here for ~3 years wit my boyfriend. i have moved away, but whenever i come to visit, i make sure to get boba lair for all the days that im here. i hope they get many customers and continue to remain here, so i can eat my favorite boba of all time. :3 i hope they will be open everyday because i want to eat it everyday that im here c:“

“This particular Klatch location has a special place in my heart - staff is always respectful, knowledgeable, and amicable. The quality of the coffee and drinks are immediately noticeable.

From espressos to cold brews, not only do they taste like ‘proper’ coffee shop coffees; they definitely do the trick. I unfortunately cannot say the same for all cafes, as there is usually something missing; whether it be quality, taste, effect, overall environment, or service. Klatch Coffee Pasadena, however, checks all these boxes and will thus remain as my go-to coffee shop :)

Special shoutouts to Isiah, Brenda, and Mia! Y’all probably tired of seeing me! Lol.“

“Simple and delicious food, with a wide range of coffee and a variety of food to try, perfect for coming here with friends!“

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

“The coffee here is amazing. The barista is friendly. And the ambiance is quiet and intimate. When you walk in, it’s very open and welcoming. The barista was very knowledgeable on any of my questions and we traded recommendations on some local Portland roasters. I got a spro and cortado, while my wife got a Sierra tonic which actually made me like espresso tonics. Hands down this is the best oat cortado I’ve ever had. The milk was steamed with perfect microfoam, and it really accented the bean’s natural sweetness. I didn’t catch his name, but we were there at noon on a Saturday after thanksgiving. Anyway, stay frosty Sierra Madre, Peace.“

“I loved the place. The patio outside is nice, not as glamorous as it seems, but it's simply beautiful. The service was very friendly, and the food was delicious. The coffee was good, not a 10, but I would buy it again. If you're looking for a place to relax and eat, this cafe is a great option. ☺️“

“Cool neighborhood coffee spot with chill vibes, a little shop that sells some cool stuff beyond just coffee brewing tools and coffee beans, and some (limited) comfortable seating inside. There is also outside seating which is especially great during nice days. The espresso I got was wonderful, and it’s always appreciated when they’re served with a shot of cold sparkling water.

Vegetarian options: I didn’t see anything that wasn’t non-vegetarian. ??“

“X Tea Cafe is definitely my favorite tea shop lately! The brown sugar boba milk tea is rich in tea flavor with just the right amount of sweetness, and the boba is perfectly chewy and soft — absolutely delicious. The shop is clean and bright with a cozy atmosphere, making it a great place to relax and chat with friends. The staff are friendly, welcoming, and attentive. Highly recommend to anyone who loves high-quality tea drinks!“

“This 7 Leaves location is my favorite since it has a drive thru. However, it’s a bit small and sometimes the line could go out to the street depending on when you use it. I went around 5:30 pm on a weekday and that was the case. After waiting about 10 minutes, I was able to order and it was ready within a few minutes.

There was a seasonal drink, so I thought I gave it a try. I tried the Rio Rosa, which was strawberry with condensed milk. I got this with honey boba as well. It tasted refreshing since it was hot that day. But overall, I thought it was just okay. I wouldn’t get that specific drink again.

This location does accept American Express.“

“What happened to Georgette and her husband and Dimitri Georgette's brother?“

“First time visit. Excellent and Quick service. A very good breakfast menu. Good variety of breakfast selections. Found the food tasty and good value. Will definitely return.“

“This was my first time here. The service was superior, servicewith a smile from the young lady behind the counter, She asked about my day, she was friendly and genuine. Made me feel good. The prices are very reasonable. The place is clean and simple by no means boring. I highly recommend it.“

“Classic diner comfort food! Kids menu 😋“

“First time here and and I must say I was very satisfied with the service and the quality of the food. I ordered a breakfast crepe and a green shake. I was in town for a work meeting and was looking for healthy eating options. This place is definitely the place for that. I highly recommend it.“

“As part of the Medical Team stationed at the Rose Bowl during the Eaton fire we want to thank Home Brew for providing delicious coffee everyday. 😁🔥“
