Chris gave amazing customer service to a very rude customer. Please give hin the commendation he deserves

We came here on a Sunday morning and it wasn't too busy! I was greeted when I walked in and the cashier took my order right away! She was kind and helpful! I ordered a ham and cheese croissant and she asked if I wanted it warmed up and I said please! I got a strawberry matcha and an iced chai latte. I also decided to get a bagel with plain cream cheese. I waited for my name to called by the side and my drinks and food came out pretty fast. It was getting busy as I was waiting! The barista was moving quickly and he was doing a good job! The inside isn't big at all but still spacious! They have tables outside you can sit at and a spacious parking lot because it is in a shopping center. I loved the drinks and my bagel was soft and warm! The croissant was also delicious! I will definitely be coming back! read more

This place has parking and is located near a bunch of little shops! This place is such an amazing spot to hang out with your family! Since this chain is pretty popular, there are a ton of people coming in and out. It's quite lively. Very nice and spacious inside where you order. To sit and enjoy your drinks and pastries is outside. We got a vanilla iced latte. I like my coffee sweet, and it was just that! I would say if you enjoy a light coffee, this is perfect, but I wish I had added a shot of espresso. It was a bit too light for me. read more

Very yummy drinks, I got the strawberry matcha and it was delicious. Yummy strawberry puree, the matcha itself wasn't too sweet which I like. My boyfriend got the Chai and it was kind of spicy haha. This place was expensive though, just as if not more expensive than Starbucks. They also had interesting options. The service was meh, they were super fast with preparing our drinks but there was no customer service, like smiling lol. But oh well the drink made up for it. Seems super casual here, it's in like a shopping center/plaza with a bunch of other shops around it. Plenty of parking. I want to come back to try more of their drink options! read more

I was debating between a coffee and matcha when I looked at their menu beforehand. Once I saw that they had a lavender matcha, I knew I had to try it. I really liked the lavender they used but found it to be overpowering to the matcha. I was able to try my friend's coffee and I definitely enjoyed that more. I would definitely come back but maybe for the coffee! read more

Everyone always says Alfred Coffee has some of the best drinks in town! And they aren't wrong. It's one of those coffee shops that I can go to different locations and the drinks are always solid. I popped into the Malibu location this morning for an Iced Matcha Pumpkin Spice Latte. Didn't know that was a thing? It so is and it is so delicious. Absolutely loved it! This location is great because it has a nice big parking lot around a lot of stuff. It was quite busy for a weekday 7:30am, as well. I used the app to pre-order and my drink was ready right on time. I think my only critique was I didn't receive any greeting when I entered the shop, which is fine, but when I went up to grab my drink & thank the team - no one acknowledged me. Bizzare to not respond to someone saying thank you, but...it was early? haha Either way, I've been to this Alfred Coffee before and I will surely be back to it again! read more

A cute little coffee shop at this outdoor shopping mall. They have merch like most coffee stores these days. We tried matcha oat milk with honey, cold brew with double shot of espresso. Both were delicious and strong enough. Service was very friendly and warm! read more

The STRAWBERRY MATCHA LATTE is delicious. The Vanilla Latte is ok. A bit milky. The location is excellent. Plenty of free parking. No line to get in. No line to order. Practically no wait time for our drinks. read more

Came in on Jan 4th at around 10 am and the 2 girls working were so rude, me and my cousins came in giving Alfred's a try for the first time. So we were excited since we had heard good things, when we walked in a girl with a red striped beanie came to the register to take our order without saying anything we let her know that we were still looking at the menu and just said okay rolled her eyes and walked away the other girl ended up talking our order who also seemed miserable to be at work! We just ordered and waited for our drinks, after this experience I won't be coming back. Horrible service, I never write reviews but I was so disappointed. I won't be coming back since the staff was so unwelcoming! read more

Came here first thing in the a.m. as I wanted something hot to offset the chilly weather this close to the beach. . I had been to their other location in Brentwood and this one is smaller outside, bigger inside. There are some small metal frame tables outside on the patio; otherwise it's clean and well lit inside the café. . They have a merchandise wall complete with tea blends, vanilla syrup and a rechargeable whisk. Service was steady. It picked up in foot traffic the second I stepped in there right around 7:30am. . My work gives me free croissants for breakfast so I got an 8 ounce hot chocolate with macadamia milk to supplement it. They kept me warm, but I wish it was sweeter. Should've got a sweetener. What I really like about this place is that they don't charge extra for alternative milk. The lid for my hot chocolate was faulty though, it spilled several times all over my uniform so I took it off to finish the drink before work. . It's a great local coffee shop. Perfect for a day start in Malibu. read more

Good coffee shop in Malibu. Tried the matchaga and matcha americano. They had macadamia milk as a substitute which I love. Don't drink coffee typically so was nice they had a lot of other drink options. read more

Never refunded my money fully. I had to keep calling them numerous times just to hear unfulfilled promises.

Love Alfred!! Line was out the door but Christopher was amazing. Shoutout Shadi for always being so helpful, sweet, and giving the best recs!! read more

Their drinks are good but the baristas are SO unfriendly and RUDE! I've been there several times and have had this experience 90% of the time. It makes the experience really shitty and there's no reason for it. Alfred needs to do something about their baristas. It's not this location either. read more

Stopped in to buy a bag of beans and ended up with a cold brew. Service was pretty meh - they were down to business and nothing else. There are a lot of businesses around the area, so lots of foot traffic. Parking lot is small and is full most of the time. read more

Bro with the man bun at the front, I walk in at 7:45 am and I say hello well after he had a long time to say hello to us and NEVER did. He just stares at us ask what we wanted and I was honestly stunned by the rudeness like it's a burden to serve us when it wasn't busy, no one was in there. I walked out a left, working in costumer's service I would never not greet a consumer and give attitude- unacceptable. read more

Just walked in and the worker with long hair (male) was extremely rude. He didn't acknowledge me or my friends when we all walked in. (We said hi) He had the dirtiest look on his face. When I said we would need a minute to look at the menu before we order, he gave us a dirty look and walked away. Extremely rude, felt very off putting and from the looks of other reviews this business doesn't care to correct their behavior. It makes me think this business just hires anyone. read more

Hands down best coffee in Malibu barista Sammy super nice recommend the breakfast burritos and must I say she nailed it great vibe of the place great food and you might see a celeb do go run to ALFREDS read more

Amazing spot to go and chill vibes are there fs and coffee is amazing especially their summer specials

First time here and I got the espresso cloud cream. It was sooooo good! Just enough sweetness. Ordered it with dairy cream and breve. I was surprised about the size with how small it was for $7.50, but I would pay it again for how much I enjoyed the drink. read more

Coffee tasted burnt, matcha tasted like water. Barista was rude too. I would never come back

alfred's is consistently good. the food is great and has good ingredients. the drinks are great, sometimes a little on the strong side so that's up to you as the drinker. i loved the cream cold foam they launched a few months ago. even the coconut plant based one is really good. service is always friendly and attentive. small and cute inside with outside seats, located in malibu creek so it's near many stores to walk around read more

Wow. Where do I even start? This is everything a coffee shop should be. With excellent artisan coffee, brewed by the kindest and most genuine people, to scrumptious pastries that pair lift you up, to food that can fuel your day in the best way-they do it right. They always have the best music playing, foster a welcoming atmosphere consistently, and provide the same sweetness and quality as what's in their products. It's always clean and you always feel seen at the Alfred Coffee in Malibu. Thank you endlessly to the whole team who always make my day read more

I've been to other Alfreds Locations and I love the coffee, I normally get great service , this location maybe needs to rethink who they have employed there, upon walking into this location today there was no greeting despite it being empty, was asked for my order when asking for a minute to look at the menu the girl at the front rudely rolled her eyes and walked away, when ready to order there was a different employee that took our order and her attitude was the same no smiling no your welcomes when saying thank you, it felt like we were a bother. I definitely would not come back to this location. read more

Came here on a whim because we wanted to check out Kith. Super cute shopping area. But this place was over hyped. Disgusting coffee. I literally threw mine away because I couldnt enjoy it. Tasted like it was watered down. Not. Worth. It. LOL. It did not taste good despite it being stirred. The photo- is just a photo because I took the photo before I drank it :) (The camera drinks first.) read more

Open today on Easter! Felt very welcomed walking into Alfred's. I ordered the lavender latte iced and my son had the famous vanilla latte. I also purchased a bottle of the lavender syrup to take home $12.50. Mine had a really nice, relaxing flavor. My son really enjoyed his vanilla latte. Plenty of outdoor seating, with covered umbrellas. read more

I genuinely try to support local businesses, but every time I visit this location, I leave feeling disappointed. The lobby is spacious but cold and uninviting--much like the atmosphere created by the staff. The baristas often seem disengaged, offering minimal greetings and even fewer smiles. The coffee is just okay, and while the food is decent, asking to have something warmed up is often met with an eye roll--and the results are inconsistent. I'll be supporting other local coffee spots moving forward. No business should leave you wishing you hadn't walked in at all. read more

First time at this location and loved it. We always come to the Malibu Country Mart and spend hours eating and shopping. This will be a new stop for us for coffee from now on. The coffee shop is spacious with outdoor seating. Friendly staff, lots of parking. The cold brew is my favorite. Gotta try other drinks next time. Great location and ambiance. read more

The coffee here is okay but this time I tried the strawberry matcha and it was actually really good. One of the best matcha's I've had. The syrup could be a little more but it's okay. The customer service was okay, he didn't seem too happy or helpful but maybe he was just having a bad day. Overall, I would come here again for the matcha, it's good! read more

First time trying this location at Alfred's Coffee. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, which was nice and gave it a relaxed vibe. There was plenty of parking available, which is rare for most coffee spots. There was no line when we got there, and the coffee took about 5-10 minutes to be ready. Everything tasted great. If you're getting a large, I'd recommend asking for extra coffee--it felt a little too milky. Overall, really solid spot. I'd definitely come back. read more

Stumbled upon this place accidentally and man am I glad I did. First off super friendly staff that just greets you with an amazing energy and smile. So if you're feeling down, you forget all about it soon as you walk in cause of their positive energy. And the minute I tried their "best vanilla late in LA" (as it appears on the menu) I realized exactly why they're in a good mood. Cause the coffee is mind blowing amazing! If you like your coffee hot, ask for extra hot cause it's warm/hot. Cozy atmosphere with a flower shop inside, not really a place to sit so come and grab a latte. You'll be amazed and happy! read more

I visited the Malibu Market shopping area today on PCH for the first time in a while and wanted a cup of coffee before I attended a meditation session at the Mindry. I ended up where I thought the Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf was and instead it seemed it was replaced by Alfreds'. I ordered a Coconut Milk hot Latte and a Gibraltar, ALL of the big franchise coffee shops have no idea what a Gibraltar is, also known as a Cordoba or a Piccolo- to our surprise they had a Gibraltar on the menu board. Both of our coffees were made to perfection and they tasted spectacular; rich, in taste and full of aroma. The exterior and the interior of the coffee shop was pristine with an artsy influence. The staff were also exceptionally nice and knowledgeable. If you are traveling anywhere in Malibu or on the Pacific Coast Highway I highly recommend stopping in and make sure you bypass all of the franchise coffee shops along the way and any other coffee shops for that matter. In my opinion this is an absolute must try!!! As a footnote there are only approximately 20 other Alfred locations with the first one and the most famous one being situated on Melrose , (since 2013) which is often frequented by celebrities. *They do not accept cash *They were slightly limited on their non dairy milk options, ie. it didn't seem they had unsweetened options at this particular time. read more

We got the vanilla latte & matcha latte. The matcha was good, but the vanilla latte was a little too sweet. Workers were not that friendly either. Maybe it was just this location. read more

Was in the area and looking for a coffee shop that wasn't a chain, and came across this place. I ordered an iced world famous vanilla latte because it's made with housemade vanilla syrup and you can tell! It was so smooth and had so much flavor. It wasn't too sweet at all either. Staff was great at recommending their popular drinks and they were so nice. Cute little shop with some seating inside and outside. Parking is easy shopping center parking. read more

We stopped by towards the end of the day yesterday so we opted for hot drinks since it was a chilly evening. I ordered a chai with almond milk and my husband a flat white with vanilla - both very good. We'll definitely return and hopefully try their famous iced vanilla latte. Service was pretty good, both girls kept complimenting my three-year-old and gave him some stickers which he immediately wanted all over his face. Hahaha... read more
