50 Best Cafes near Valley Glen

“The nicest people And the best boba on earth“

“The ponchiks were delicious! Especially the raspberry filled but the only bad thing was that they did not have my order ready on time. They had to submit the order once I got there so i ended up having to wait a while. Very inconvenient when you're on your lunch break.“

“I had been hearing about Boba tea and seeing it on Instagram,but never tried it until I got to California. I LOVE the mango flavor with the Tapioca pearls that look like blueberries! I asked for the most popular flavor and it did not disappoint! I will visit them again when I am in Cali!“

“Such Wonderful atmosphere, food and coffee! 💖🎉🥳 They also have a super sweet display of gourmet treats!!! 🤩“

“Really amazing and very good food. I was a table of one and was able to sit down within 15 minutes compared to usual hour long wait.

I got the HK style french toast, very sweet and more of a dessert but it was amazing nonetheless. Second item i got was the cold sesame noodle (no chicken) and i’ve never had this amazing dish before and it was life changingly good.

Funny story but they threw away my food while i was in the bathroom for two minutes but they apologized and gave me a free meal to go and pastry. I didn’t care that much but happy they fixed an error!

Will come back again def“

“Open Market catered a wedding reception I was coordinating in October, and they were wonderful. Their restaurant is one of the bride's favorites, and they were great. The food is delicious, and I'm working on getting my husband over there soon. They couldn't have been more accommodating and flexible during the planning, and they were straight pros at the reception. As a planner, I love caterers that are easy to work with and easy for my couple's to work with, and it was a great experience for everyone.

“Can’t wait to come back for a positive review after my first be bright pour-over as I think I had the best bean in North America and haven’t had a good quality of Geisha for long time.
I dropped by for a cold brew and grabbed a bag of “unique & surprising” to go and the barista shared a small cup of its cold brew for me to taste. I am glad i have tried because it was really surprised by its freshness and flavor and almost wanted to have another large cup of coffee if it’s not my first drink at that day of arrival after a 5 hr flight without a full meal😿
I followed the brew guide on the website but have cut half of the size and still get the same profile as I have had for cold brew.
I will definitely come back for other coffee drinks next time🙌
Nice staff with the chill atmosphere and a kids area provided which is rarely seen“

“Great atmosphere, Hector was great!“

“Cool place to get Argentinean goodies... Gaby, the owner, is the best! My family loves her 🥰🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷“

“Hot day. We had a relax time with amazing tea!!!“

“This Latina woman–owned coffee shop is such a hidden gem. From the outside it might look a little rough, but step inside and you’ll be greeted with the warmest service and the most delicious food. I had the best breakfast sandwich I’ve had in a long time, and the mazapán latte was out of this world. PERFECTLY made. The team here truly makes you feel welcome, and you can tell they pour so much love into what they do. I’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend supporting this spot! 🌸☕🥪 Gracias chicas!!“

“I am excited to share the heavenly news that Doubting Thomas has been fully endorsed by the Kingdom of God and Jesus Christ, King of Wings! Congrats Chef Naomi!“

“Some of the best espresso I've had during my LA visit! This is a no-frills spot for to go coffee, with small street-side tables as a seating option. The owner's passion for coffee really shows - you can tell he pays meticulous attention to every shot he pulls.

It's a fantastic place for a cortado, cappuccino, or latte. The espresso itself is dark and rich, with a careful balance that makes every sip delicious. If you want quality coffee without the fuss, this is your spot!“

“Ooh, what a lively place. It is a packed place even on a late Thursday morning, but the food is quite good.

I had the avocado toast with two poached eggs and it was tasty. I added a sprinkle of pepper and it was set to go. Definitely interested in trying the rest of their menu.

Cold brew was also nice although not too memorable.“

“Super riko selos recomiendo“

“i had an incredible experience at this brunch spot! the service was top-notch. very friendly, attentive, and welcoming. the food came out surprisingly fast, which was a pleasant surprise, and everything i ordered was absolutely delicious. 10s across the board on the food! i ordered the “you make me wake up happy” meal. the food had so much flavor, and the presentation was beautiful too. highly recommend for anyone looking for a yummy brunch outing. i’ll definitely be back here again!“

“Their Matcha Cream Top Latte is absolutely the BEST! Its almost like a matcha milkshake which tastes so so good! 🔥 highly recommend this place for matchas. It is a $8.5 drink, but I believe it is completely worth it! Not tried their coffee yet, but would say their Matcha stands out!“

“Excelente servicio. Comida exquisita y saludable. 💯%Recomendable. Gracias.“

“Great Vibes ~ cool 😎 peeps ~ delicious food“

“Tastes great, not expensive, good service“

“Been here twice with my daughter - Got my husband the chai tea latte and I got the day dream, both delish. Great service everyone’s been super friendly. I even left my phone the second time and the girl came outside to give it back to me before I walked too far. Will be back!“

“Today we ordered black beans and rice, fried bananas and ropa vieja for a big group. It was absolutely delicious and even came with plates, utensils and napkins. Thank you very much.“

“Maybe the best cinnamon roll I have ever had. Not overly sweet, or too buttery, or yeasty. Cooked enough and perfectly balanced. The Chai latte was just right. Very rich in flavor, very nice tea. Not too hot either. Staff is friendly and the place is well kept. Good music as well.“

“Can someone please answer the sunset blvd location’s phone ? I need to make an adjustment to an acai bowl placed with DoorDash before it gets made.

edit: Whata Peach personally reached out & made everything right. I do truly appreciate it & highly recommend to order in person instead of using doordash.
The food & drinks were still extremely yummy & the additional effort from Whata peach made this company climb higher on my list of places to visit while in LA. Thank you 🍑“

“This Bakery is Beyond amazing 👏 😍 They make fresh fruit smoothies :^) they have multiple milk options 😋 They offer fresh juices that are healthy, yet delicious. They have delicious sandwiches. Their homemade cookies are amazing 👏 They go above and beyond to make you feel at home 🏡 they have AC and it's comfortable. The bathroom was very clean and provides a sound blocking experience. I will definitely be coming back. 😌 Thank you all for providing us a healthy energizing breakfast!“

“Want to get connected with nature and have an amazing meal! This was just what er needed on our hike. The food was so fresh and delicious. You still can connect with nature while getting healthy food. Very kid workers, and it was nice that they provided water for free. If you are hiking, take the time to get more energy and good food!“

“Love the atmosphere, great place to try authentic Turkish dishes ( İskender , dolma , mercimek çorba, Lahmacun) 😋😋😋🇹🇷🧿“

“Their matcha is definitely better than most if not all places in LA; the fragrance of the matcha tea flavour was nice and distinct thought not strong; still pretty creamy overall. The salted foam on the matcha spanner is delicious.
Their breakfast sliders were delicious, mostly because of the sauces and freshness.
Be prepared to wait in line 30-60+ mins on weekends, especially with the rhode collaboration happening this month. We waited just about an hour last weekend when the line ended right around the end of the block.“

“I loved the citrus tea.. it was delicious.“

“It was about time I wrote a review of this amazing hidden gem! We have been coming here for years, and I cannot explain how amazing everything about this place is. We have tried nearly every boba flavor on the menu & not one has disappointed til today! We have even tried flavors we thought we would not like and we ended up loving. You cannot go wrong with anything on the menu ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I wish there was more than 5 stars to rate because this business definitely deserves it. Customer service, quality food and drinks, amazing people! Chicken snacks are sooo delicious if you are ever near or local and have not given this place a try. Even if you aren’t local the drive is definitely worth it 💯💕 Super nice and amazing human beings at this shop that definitely serve the best Boba in the valley! I always make the drive because this is the only place we buy our delicious boba drinks 🙏🏻♥️
Pictures below include a delicious pineapple coconut smoothie w/ lychee and boba.
A grapefruit smoothie w/ boba & a strawberry smoothie! 🥰🙏🏻 & cannot forget to order the chicken snack!“

“My daughter and I had a great lunch here. Great staff, and the menu is extensive, with much variety. She eats vegetarian, and had good choices.“

“Most unusual brunch with chef driven latkes deep fried to look like rye bread. Pickled lox was purple along with crème fresh and capers. Very filling. . . Only thing was the outside chairs were metal and needed cushions. Find used hotel chairs. Otherwise it was great. Bravo“

“Great espresso nice vibes“

“We found this cafeteria because it was the only one open after 9pm but we were so happy to discover this hidden gem 💎🩷 we would definitely go back if we have the chance. Coffee was great, the staff were super friendly, the tiramisu was also amazing.“

“Coffees are really good, really good espressos. Highly recommend the aztec latte! Coffee is just ridiculously expensive. I pay total $8.40 for their large aztec latte with oat milk. Oat milk is an extra 1.50 and their large looks like a regular size. Their brownie is really dry but soft.“

“Beautiful space, friendly service, and the best cold brew in the city. I took my camera here yesterday. The light is so nice, there’s usually always a table. The baristas remembered my order! Parking can be hard but it’s worth it. My new spot!“

“Friendly service... good for everyone’s and good taste drink. Love boba time drinks“

“Samos Cafe and Grip is an absolute gem! The food is consistently delicious, fresh, and full of flavor — you can really taste the quality in every bite. Whether it’s a quick snack or a full meal, everything is made with care and attention to detail.“

“Very friendly group there. They had information available about all the cats and you could tell they loved where they worked. The cats are obviously well cared for and the facility is well maintained. I was impressed with the entire experience and will definitely be back.“

“it was exactly what we were looking for and definitely will be back! Delicious fresh thoughtful food, something for everyone. As a vegetarian I was delighted at the options. I had the roasted cauliflower and yam salad and it was scrumptious. Not to mention they have outdoor seating in the shade which is lovely and they welcomed my doggies with a bowl of water and chunks of chicken! thanks!“

“They needed better air conditioning and accurate time for pick up food was cold.“

“little miss is my happy place. the staff is kind and attentive, drinks are delicious and food is made with love. the space itself is colorful and welcoming, and the moment you walk in you’re met with smiles and greetings from not just the staff but other cafe regulars! dogs are known by name and honored on the polaroid wall. so grateful for the little community that has grown here and highly suggest you step in as well! :)“

“Best Sourdough Bread!!!! Freshly baked bread“

“Good breakfast. Hamburgers are great.“

“Maru has really Nice green tea latte. I usually leaning toward coffee and Maru’ coffee is super nice. But, their iced green tea latte is something else.“

“I’m in LOVE with these donuts!!! Not to mention how sweet they are in there!!! So nice, incredible donuts that are BETTER than the “other” big donut place out here.... Sorry Cali, Crafted is the place!!!!“

“I love this place! Maybe one day, my state will have full recreation. For now, I will happily indulge while on vacation. Btw, their prices were LESS than what I paid for my medical. The staff was amazing and I hope I can come back again before I leave!“

“Their mocha is the best I’ve ever had. I always come here for it, and I really like the events they have, like unplug nights and challah bread making! It’s really focused on community and that comes through in their concept design. So happy UCLA has this place next door!“

“I ate a Lechon sandwich. Took a while to prepare but it was tasty“

“A little over 3 years ago, Fleur Cafe opened, and has been a fine success as a small, one-of family restaurant with excellent service and great food at reasonable prices. Now they have expanded their kitchen, and finally introduced an expanded menu with wonderful new dishes added to the popular favorites! I personally enjoy the outdoor dining option, but they have also got a nice little dining room. Prices have gone up a bit, but it is still a very reasonable breakfast, brnch and lunch choice.“
