    Special Combination Beef Noodle Soup
    Ruben G.

    This spot is a "That hit the spot" type of spot. The Pho is amazing and so are the spring rolls. I come here at least once every two weeks. The seating area is nice and always clean. The AC is always cranked up so it always feels good in there. The service is always great and the staff is always friendly. Combination beef pho with added shrimp is my go to order.

    I've been here a few times , I got party tray of spring rolls and egg rolls. There was no complaint about the food . It's a "I need a quick fix on viet food " spot . I like the quick service.

    I've been feeling under the weather lately so some pho and fresh bahn mi was definitely needed. I love this place so much because it's not only convenient but sooo tasty!! Sandwiches are made to order and nothing beats a warm bowl of soup on a cold, winter night. If you're ever craving some viet classics, then try out this place for sure!

    I've been coming here for so long, the staff knows who I am and always gets me my food ASAP, RECOMMEND

    Honestly this place is one of the worst I been here at pico Rivera I do not recommend it the old man who is the owner or manager has the worst aggressive service I ever experienced He is very rude he is taking orders in the front probably he hates what he is doing because there is no way someone would be so rude to his own costumers I was trying to order a soup and requested an extra plate since the big soup was for two toddlers and I wanted to split the noodles for them , he just saw me very angry bacause I was ordering an extra plate for the kids and ignore my request Then I order a teriyaki chicken sandwich I clearly said I wanted a teriyaki and a meatloaf sandwich , and he got the order and he said without me even asking because I didn't needed he said if you order two sandwich I give you a 3 one free and I said ok and he asked what I wanted I said egg , then I ordered an order of egg rolls When I was about to pay Apple Pay he took the phone from my hands in a very rude way and tap the phone in the machine , And he gave it back to me very annoyed, We sat and then the order came one of the sandwiches was wrong they gave us a shredded chicken instead of teriyaki and the person that was with me who ordered it didn't wanted it she wanted teriyaki she went to the front to said please give her a teriyaki because that's what we ordered and he came to the table to tell me that was not my order and that he was not gonna give me anything else saying he already gave me three sandwiches ( but not what I ordered ) if I wanted something else I needed to go and pay more because the teriyaki was not in the program to get a free sandwich ( but in the first place I ordered a teriyaki sandwich and it was the first thing I ordered ) , I said that's ok but she ordered a teriyaki that's what she wants to try he in a very rude way took the 2 sandwiches from my table and left saying that if I wanted to pay more I can get a teriyaki not for free ( when I never asked for a free sandwich we just wanted to eat what we ordered , He left saying things in a very rude way in front of other costumers being us only woman and two toddlers Then someone brought wrong drinks to our table that we didn't order we didn't touch them because we didn't wanted drinks either and we knew they brought them by mistake , he came back again And said very rude this is not yours you did not order drinks ,, and took them again in a very aggressive way , A lady who was in the front called him and then someone else brought the teriyaki sandwich to us I was not able to eat because he ruined my meal with his aggressive rude attitude towards us He wants to give you whatever he wants to give you instead of what you actually order If they offered something free is because they want to not because the costumers are asking for I don't understand how they want to give you want they want in order to give you something free that's wrong I came here to order food and I had money to pay not because I wanted something for free and on top of them getting the order wrong give us a really bad aggressive service and take away what he already gave us for free because they took the order wrong I do not recommend to anyone visiting this place !!!! There is so much better professional cleanliness and delicious places with 5 stars service around Whittier

    Drive through
    Peggy F.

    PROS: * Super convenient that it's a drive through * Service was fast, though the item I ordered seems like it'll take a while to make * The pricing is superb. On the regular menu there is a $6 for a buy 1 get 1 free drink (averages $3/cup) with multiple drinks options that you can mix and match. Other drinks are only $4ish which is cheap compared to other places. Pricing on sandwiches and other items are also comparable cheap (forgot to take a photo of the menu) * Friendly staff * The tastes is decent compared to the price for the quality * The price-to-quality value is at par for what you get at the level of a fast-food drive through * Conveniently located at an intersection for going in both directions. Quick stop-n-go if passing by. CONS: * Spring rolls is pre-made a while ago, as is evident from the yellowing on the chopped lettuce * Drinks are medium quality, but can't complain as it's at par for the price charged Overall - If I'm passing by street again, feeling hungry, but don't want to eat the other traditional American fast food around the area (Mc'D, Jack In The Box, etc.), I wouldn't mind stopping here again for a fresher lighter-feel meal and refreshing drinks for a very good price.

    Do they take American Express?

    No. We’re taking Visa/mastercard only. Sorry for any inconvenience caused. Thanks

    Is there dairy free options Available for the milk teas?

    Our regular milk tea is dairy free. The Thai tea is the only tea made from dairy. Hope you enjoy our boba milk tea. Thanks

    Is their house coffee anywhere near comparable to Lee's Sandwiches or 7 Leaves? I love the Vietnamese coffee there.

    Are there any vegetarian options?

    The veggie pho has chicken & pork flavor broth. So be wary if you're vegetarian & still want to eat this

The waiters are really cool, very nice. This place is legit run by Guatemalans which was pretty cool. I recently visited Guatemala so it was fun to chat with the waiter who noticed my shirt (I was coincidentally wearing a shirt I bought in Guatemala with a picture of Tikal lol). Anywaaaay - I tried the trio tostadas, a tamal and a Mayan iced latte. The tostadas were great. They were very fresh. They're very simple. One is black bean, one is avacado and one is chicken salad. My favorite was the chicken salad. I used their green salsa and it was delicious. The tamales was good. Today I learned I don't really like the flavor of banana leaf that gets absorbed into the tamal. Also, it was primarily made of rice. It had a piece of bell pepper, a little chicken and I think a plum. Aside from the banana leaf I liked the tamale. The latte was delicious. Nice coffee flavor and sweetened perfectly. Definite recommend and I will for sure be back.

I always order the matcha with 1.5 scoops of matcha, vanilla syrup, and light ice, and it's consistently perfect every single time, rich, smooth, not watered down, and clearly made with quality matcha. You can actually taste it, which sadly isn't a given these days. My boyfriend's go-to is the vanilla cold brew with a splash of whole milk, and it never misses. Smooth, balanced, not overly sweet, just really well done. Beyond the drinks, the vibe is what really sets Roam & Brew apart. It's always busy for a reason. Friendly staff, welcoming energy, and a place that genuinely feels like it was built for the community. You never feel rushed or like just another order. Consistency, quality, and care are everything in a coffee shop, and Roam & Brew nailed all three. It's obvious how much thought goes into what they serve and how they show up for customers. Montebello is lucky to have had this spot, and it's a huge loss to see them go. If you're reading this and still have a chance to visit, do it. This place truly deserved the love it got

I have been on a quest to try different coffee spots in my surrounding areas, but this spot may bring me to a halt (lol). I didn't realize this little spot was here until a few weeks ago that my husband and I stopped by the brewery (after many times) to watch a game and have a few drinks. That's when we noticed the coffee bar. Service was friendly and they do have a good selection to choose from. I stopped on a Friday morning for fuel (coffee) before running errands, and went with the strawberry horchata cold foam. I was pleasantly surprised. It was perfect and not overly sweet. I also got a pistachio crescent, warm, and was delicious. I stopped by the following morning, and went with the pumpkin spice chai latte, which was perfect! And pistachio crescent to share with my son, which he ended up taking, despite him not having a sweet tooth for baked goodies like I do. Highly recommend this little spot!!

The last time I reviewed it was because I had a particularly bad experience with an employee, and this update to my last review is because of the same issue with a different employee by the name of Anna-Yi (?) I swear the baristas behind the counter here are some of the nicest workers I've encountered, so I'm confused as to why it's always someone in management who breaks that streak? I'm not even that delicate to where every unpleasant interaction deserves a review, I just actually can't believe these things until I write them down. I was waiting for my drink (small iced latte, exxtra ice in a large cup) when I heard my name called and a barista was waiting for me to tell me that I had to pay for the extra milk to fill the large cup. I explained that I wanted no extra milk and that I expected a cup full of ice, to which she argued with me in every possible direction, even insinuating that she was going to have to "re-train" the barista who rang me up. I asked her if she would feel satisfied with me paying for the "extra" milk as long as the cup isn't filled to the top and she just goes "Oh if you don't want extra milk then you don't have to pay for it." and from there I just agreed with everything she said. I was too dizzy to stand my own ground at that point. Completely unnecessary. Prime example of someone riding a power trip.

I was in the area and I've never had a cute coffee with the latte art (so many of my friends are going to roast me for this) When I pulled up -nice private parking -a staff member was outside painting on the windows with the cutest window art. The girl had talent! This place has also given back. They helped with the LA fires last year. So bonus points for places who give back. (They gave back to the Pasadena humane society) There was a pretty big line and it was pretty loud in here, but it went by very fast. My friend grabbed a table while I placed the order. -they do have a good amount of seating. The place is pretty small though. So we sat for a minute after our drinks came out and then decided to take it to go -they have latte art that changes every month. So I like they have some rotating options. It was my turn and I ordered two sugar free mocha iced coffees. One with regular foam, And mine had strawberry foam. When I told Matthew at the counter it was really important the one drink be as sugar free as possible due to my friend being diabetic, he warned us there was sugar in the foam, but he would go as light as possible. So I appreciate him warning us and taking it serious. I picked the new hello kitty art of the month (hello kitty in a bathing suit with waves and dolphins) And my friend picked from the new monthly latte art as well, and got the Kirby character Even though it was busy, it took probably 2 minutes for our drinks to be made Matthew was absolutely great. His energy, he had a smile on his face, was knowledgeable about the menu, Matthew was everything you'd want in a staff member. Just like any coffee place, you pay and give them a name for your order, and then they call your name and you pick up your coffee at the counter. These drinks hit the spot!!! It was very trendy. They had Sabrina carpenter and Olivia Rodrigo specials and they even had a Lana Del Rey latte (cinnamon girl, named after her song) only thing that bummed me out They had a case with delicious pastries. But since I came here later in the day, they only had a couple stragglers left behind -they open at 7 am, for everyone needing their morning coffee -vegan options -free WiFi -woman owned -LGBTQ owned -they give back to the community
