It has a very similar vibe to Little Bear. One difference is that because there’s more windows, there’s more lighting which is nice for reading. I have tried their drinks 3 times now and I do not like them. I tried a matcha with vanilla and it was very bland, tried the campo with espresso and it tasted kinda stale. I got a regular latte and I think the milk was burnt? They get donuts and burritos from the same places other coffee joints get them from so not worth the drive imo. I will say the baristas are always nice, but maybe the ingredients provided by whoever orders them is not the best.

Lovely cafe! Beautiful interior with a very chic feel. Pictured is the El Nopal, a tasty and uniquely tart espresso tonic. The afternoon-evening staff were very nice. Great atmosphere for enjoying a pastry and meeting with friends or getting work done. Would recommend coming here!

Really good coffee and baked goods. Obviously popular with the neighbors. A bit off the beaten track for me but I'll definitely stop by when I'm in the 'hood.

Just visited La Luz for the first time. I tried a vanilla oat milk latte, it was okay, not fantastic or bad. I like the vibe of the shop. It presents very upscale. I have not tried any food/treats from there yet.
Parking: Small parking lot that is typically packed.

Really good coffee, great music and vibe, and a wonderful barista doing wonderful work in our mugs. Donut was a little dry at 1pm, but still tasty and to be expected this late in the day (we got the last two donuts). We will come earlier next time :).

Loved the vibe here. Lots of seating...cool decor; live plants are a lovely touch... service was wonderful even when I did the unspeakable & changed my order at the last minute 😬 🤪the coffee was good, but I really should have just went with my first order...only downside was the donut was not great but it was late afternoon so that's probably why. My highlight was I really loved the front door ..it is super cool & unique🙂

Pastries and cappuccino were great. Also purchased a bag of beans which was almost 2 months old- I didn't even think about checking the roast date. If I wanted beans that old, I'd buy coffee at Costco
Kid-friendliness: Excellent outdoor and indoor seating. Outdoor seating has some shade

The design of this cafe is phenomenal! I love the inside. Amazing big door, and 2 glass side doors for access to the patio. Plenty of parking, and plenty of seating. Espresso machine even has the logo on it, quite impressive design. My latte was a bit on the nuttier-side of espresso, but I think it's because all of their coffee is roasted in-house. Speaking of which... You can see their roaster right in the back-of-house!

I love everything about this place! It was great as just a kiosk in the parking lot--drive-through coffee is an excellent idea--though I've watched the building being renovated until the grand opening in August, after all the red tape troubles with the city got resolved. Josh follows similar business practices to what I saw in New Zealand, and it's very comfortable. The coffee & pastries are great, the atmosphere is excellent whether you choose the indoor or outdoor seating, and everyone employed there is a joy to talk to.

It's so great to have a Starbucks alternative in the Valley. It just warmed my ❤️. I have lived in this general area since the 70's. My little boy used to go there to play games when it was a convenience store. My little boy is 51 now. I loved everything about it, especially the ambiance. Neighbors hanging out.
