First of all, I LOVE scones, but I have never in my life had a raspberry butter scone before. When I say this thing changed my life... I mean it. The combination of the raspberry with the actual buttery richness was unreal. I'm literally drooling writing this review thinking about it again. Absolute top tier. Bomb.com. I also got the vanilla bean salted coffee, and that was really good too. It paired perfectly with the scone. But let me tell you... The real star of the show is that raspberry butter scone. Holy moly. I genuinely wish more places sold something like that because I would eat it every single day if I could. One thing I definitely recommend: get here EARLY because it seems like their scones sell out fast. I can already tell I'm going to be back trying all the other flavors. Seriously, if they expanded to more locations, I'd probably become a regular immediately. Such a great find and soooooo goood!!!!

It was a complete umami flavor bomb of taste that makes you go "oh! mami!" Also, love their honey americano with salted cream. Great balance of creamy, salty, & honey for coffee

first time checking out this cafe & it was a lovely experience! service was super nice and the…read moredrink I ordered was so tasty I couldn't decide between the Guinness butterscotch cream latte or the seasonal Coconut Ube Latte. With the help of the cashier, I chose the latter. I'm so glad I did! The ratio between the coffee and ube was just right and I enjoyed every sip of my drink. Parking is tight but I'm definitely coming here again :)

There's plenty of seating with a mix of table options, making it perfect whether you're coming solo or with a group. They even have a cute little water dispenser, which I loved. Only downside was restroom was a little dirty and no toilet paper Service was friendly and informative, which always makes a difference. I ordered an iced matcha with oat milk and one pump of sugar-free vanilla, and it was made to perfection. I'm trying not to chug it, but it's that good. They also had a selection of pastries that looked really tempting. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to.

Homeboy Coffee has quickly become one of our favorite coffee spots. The service was…read moreamazing--everyone was friendly, welcoming, and made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. The ambiance is another highlight. The space is calm, spacious, and comfortable, making it a great place to relax, catch up with someone, or just enjoy a good cup of coffee. I didn't try any food this visit, but they had a nice selection of pastries and croissants that looked fresh and tempting. For drinks, I ordered the Sweet Corn Latte, and it was surprisingly delicious. The corn flavor wasn't overpowering; it was balanced perfectly so you could taste both the subtle sweetness of the corn and the coffee without either one taking over. My wife ordered the Homeboy Latte, which is her go-to every time we visit, and it never disappoints. Consistently great every single time. If you're looking for excellent coffee, outstanding service, and a relaxing atmosphere, Homeboy Coffee is definitely worth a visit.

It was so much that we would reach free drink status pretty quickly. I would grab an Ube matcha with oat milk for me and a cold brew latte with a shot of espresso and oat milk for my partner. We both would also order the waffles. It was a great little breakfast on the go. And service was top notch--pleasant and quick. The quality of the drinks was consistently great! Plus ordering it all online made it super convenient. Lately, there appears to be a shift at Homeboy Coffee. My drinks have had issues with them (i.e., no coconut syrup, watered down, wrong milk, less espresso shot than previously). Now, the waffle is not available for purchasing through their online ordering system despite them available in the store. Overall, Homeboys is okay. It isn't what it used to be which is sad especially because i loved it...especially their Ube matcha latte and waffles. I hope this is a temporary shift and that the OG Homeboy comes back.

Upon walking in I noticed the amount of tables they had! Definitely seems like a great study/hang out spot. They have a great selection of drinks and they also have some food items. They had 1 employee when we arrived & even though she was busy, she still greeted us kindly & with a smile! I tried the peel me a latte with oat milk which was so good and the foam tasted like real banana, not artificial. The only thing I wish is if it was a bit less sweet. Not sure if you can add an extra shot or less sweetness but regardless, one of the best banana lattes I've tried!

Their " pour over" is not actually a pour over. Although their menu specifically says V60 pour…read moreover, and I seen their V60 on the counter, it was not used. They used a drip machine that has "pour over features". I called this to the barista's attention but she said they use their pour over machine for their pour overs... They should probably update their menu. Other than that I like buying their beans and my fiancé likes their latte's.

I can't have them from anywhere else because these hit the spot so hard that no one can compete. I personally have not tried anything else, but my kids have enjoyed other treats from this place. They are located in Cerritos at a very busy shopping plaza and there's plenty of parking. I didn't expect the bakery to be an actual restaurant. There was a good crowd, sitting at tables and eating and drinking. They have about a dozen different flavors of macaroons. You can't go wrong with any of them, but my top favorite are the Birthday, Fruity Pebble, Horchata, Cappuccino and Ferrero Rocher. They make nice gifts too, as they can put it in a treat box in an ice brown paper bag. I definitely need to come back and try their drinks and something else from their menu.

Their drinks were decent…read morethough, and after eating teriyaki in Gardena, I was craving something sweet, so we decided to stop here again. I ordered a hot salted caramel latte. They charge an extra dollar to substitute oat milk, so I kept the regular milk. My son got the cappuccino cake, and I chose the ricotta pistachio cake. The pistachio cake was a little dry -- not terrible, but noticeable. However, my hot salted caramel latte was actually very good and paired really well with the dessert. The music and atmosphere were nice, and there were only a few patrons inside, which made it feel relaxed. However, there were a couple of dirty plates left sitting on tables while one employee seemed more focused on organizing napkins instead of clearing them. I also wasn't too sure how fresh the cakes were since they had been sitting in the display. Whether I come back really depends on the flavor and quality of the food and drinks next time around.

Then I remembered I've been wanting to try this place, so we decided to grab our post meal sweets here. We ordered 2 flan cupcakes, 1 crack cheesecake and 1 regular upside down halo halo. Everything was so good. I devoured the halo halo and the cupcake. I will need to eat the cheesecake tomorrow, but based on how good the other two were, I'm pretty sure I'll enjoy the cheesecake just as much. Now that I know what I've been missing out on, I'll be coming in as much as I can here on out lol.

Although they really pack the drinks with ice especially for the Biscoff. Service was normal, nothing really to rave about. Basic customer service so it's still good lol.

Lots of people coming in to study and work which tells you everything about the kind of vibe this place has. We ordered three drinks and two out of three were absolute winners. The Grapefruit-Ade was fabulous. On its own the grapefruit flavor is already great, but once you mix in the yogurt cream top it completely transforms the drink. It adds this full bodied, creamy element that elevates the whole thing. Really, really good. The Short Cream Latte was also a standout. Rich but in the best way, perfectly balanced, not too sweet, and the coffee flavor really shines through. The house-made sweet cream ties everything together beautifully. This one is a must order. The Matcha Tonic was the one miss for us, only because it wasn't quite what we were expecting. Not bad, just not our vibe for a matcha tonic. The other two drinks more than made up for it though. They also have gelato which we didn't try this visit but definitely caught our eye for next time. If you're in the Artesia area and looking for a solid coffee spot with great drinks and a welcoming atmosphere, Holos is worth the stop.
