    I'm not a fan of churros anymore, but then, I never tried or heard of stuffed churros until coming here with friends. We got the sampler and they were all great, made to order. The perfect snack on a cold night. Four of us easily scarfed down 4. One has mango, guava - some kind of tropical fruit. Happy Days is a charming, small cafe that's open late. Service is friendly and excellent. They serve delicious hot cocoas, too. Was a great way to end the evening!

    Wow!!!!

    Milkshake: I rate3/10 Churro ice cream: 10/10 The milkshake was lackluster in flavor and overpriced in my opinion. The churro ice cream was good. The service did take a while and the atmosphere was cozy

    Crsipity crunchitty delicious churros with a cozy ambiance and excellent service that's friendly. We were walking with our heads high and boom found this place. Had the confidence to go in and now two orders of churros, an iced latte, and a mint tea of solid size we'll be on our way again. Happy times at Happy Days

    cute little cafe along ventura! needed a sweet treat and this spot came up. the churro was perfectly crisp and soft at the same time and the fillings paired so well with it. we got the oreo and dulce de leche filling and ordered a side of ice cream. the cold ice cream paired with the warm gooey churro was a great combo. i just wish there was a option to order just 1 big churro because two was a LOT even for two to share. service was fine, was just surprised that they forgot our ice cream when there were no other customers there lol. still a great place to share dessert with family or friends. it's conveniently close to other restaurants/ bars.

    Happy days and a the best churro restaurant in the area! They have a lovely array of teas to choose from. I think the stuffed churros are the best thing on the menus. Staff is always helpful and kind. Cute place especially at night!

    Absolutely love the churros here! When we're in the area, my husband and I like coming here after our date night dinners. Although, with our most recent experience, the girl who took our order kept messing it up. My husband ordered a hot chocolate for dine in and she gave it to us in a To go cup :( I was sad about it because I really wanted the nice big cup with the decorated top. At that time, we were over it and didn't want them to just pour it in a cup so we took it the way it is. Additionally, we ordered the caramel dip and they gave us Nutella which we didn't order. It was a bit annoying but outside of this, we enjoyed our churros.

    Gluten Free Plain Churros

    With a random craving for Churros, I stumbled upon this place. They have gluten free options of churros and waffles, which are nice. Unfortunately, the churros themselves were mediocre...not enough cinnamon flavors but more sugar. Half baked inside (could have been hard because GF doughs are gooey). The lady at the register was also talking for the whole time on phone loud and cooking. I wanted to enjoy churros but the environment was not relaxing and also I am a bit worried she was talking over my churros when cooking.

    I was walking down Ventura Blvd while visiting family and stumbled upon this spot and now I get sad every time I think about it because it was SO GOOD. If you're in the area, you need to stop by Happy Days. This was the cutest spot with the most unique and beautiful decor, and of course delicious coffee and churros. I got the churro sampler with different stuffed churro flavors and an incredible horchata iced latte. I still think about this little coffee stop because of how good they were but sadly I'm all the way across the country lol. If you want to send some my way, Happy Days team, I'll gladly take some stuffed churros and another horchata latte

    LeMill coffee is used here... Enough said! Excellent brews, cute little place, and delicious desserts. I ordered the Churro Waffle Ice cream which was excellent. Crispy and flaky, the warm waffle complimented the vanilla ice cream deliciously. Inside and outdoor seating available; inside the music is a bit loud but the atmosphere is cozy and sweet like the desserts. Definitely worth exploring this cafe.

    Yay!

    I LOVE this place. Came here with a friend because it's one of the rare cafes that's open past 5pm. SO GOOD! I got the Spanish latte (fire) AND they make GLUTEN FREE CHURROS! Both stuffed and regular. It's such a cute place. They also have gluten free waffles as well. Next time I'm going to try the Horchata latte

    Brenda M.

    What a cute little cafe! While the space is on the smaller size, they utilize every single inch of it. The design and decorations are perfect. Now for the best part the churros! Absolutely delicious! How did I not know of this place till now? We had the Stuffed Sampler and I don't think I could pick just one as my favorite. The ice matcha latte was so yummy and the ice cream tasted heavenly. The staff was very friendly and willing to answer all our questions. Will definitely be going back a lot!

    Horchata Latte
    John F.

    Happy Days Cafe has a cute vibe, but my experience was just okay. I ordered the Horchata Latte, and while it tasted great--smooth, flavorful, and nicely balanced--it wasn't worth the price. The cup was noticeably small for what I paid, which was a bit disappointing. The cafe itself is cozy, but there's very limited seating, so it's not the best spot to relax or hang out for long. It felt a bit cramped, especially during peak hours. Overall, I give it 3 stars: solid drink, but the value and space didn't match the hype. Probably wouldn't go out of my way to come back.

    Are the churros celiac friendly? If not is it possible to get them frozen or raw so we can fry it ourselves?

    My bff is celiac and has had their gf churros. She loved them and didn't give her any problems.

    Are the churros vegan?

    YES!!! Only some of the sauces they use are vegan though, so be sure to specify that you would like vegan options. But the churros themselves are vegan, and delicious.

    Is this a good place to study?

    I wouldn't, it gets a lot of traffic during peak hours so noisy and very small space. If you're looking for independent business versus Sbux or CBTL, I would suggest M Street Coffee (but often crowded), Peet's Coffee, Crave Cafe, Coral Tree Cafe,… Read more

Thankfully I am tech savvy because I was feeling too lazy to go back to the host stand! The online ordering process is simple and we were thankful for a few vegan options (although more would have been great!). We got the Vegan Tofu Tostada and the Vegan Tex Mex Tofu Scramble. I particularly enjoyed the tofu scramble more for having more spices and seasonings but both were hearty, filling and enjoyable to eat. The potatoes were also tasty but on the heavier side! I got the lavender latte with oat milk which tasted great and was very rich and creamy with an earthy flavor and a subtle sweetness. The ambiance was nice but it definitely felt tight eating there. The seats were comfy but it was noisy! The service was friendly but it felt very slow and not quite attentive enough. I do like the option of dining outside, but it was on the chillier side, so we chose to dine inside! Parking is also very easy in the surrounding neighborhood, with plenty of free parking!

It was full and the whole parking situation with the metered is a cluster fuck. Not part of the restaurant....lol... Found street parking along Moorpark which was only a little walk to the restaurant. There was a band setting up when we arrived which could also be the reason for a full parking lot. I overheard someone saying that certain days they have live music which is perfect as it's starting to heat up. Nice dining experience with live music. We ended up sitting inside for the ac which I would have love to be outside but it was fine. Breakfast had ended but the lunch menu was quite good. I've alway ordered at the counter each visit which I'm not even sure they have waitress service with order. After ordering, a number is give where it's placed on the table. As there was a couple of us, a few dishes was had. I alway go for the mimosas deal, 3 for the price of 2. Food, the Cobb salad which I forgot to add protein to it but it was still decent. That came with their vinaigrette dressing but a side of ranch was also asked for. The Brie and turkey sandwich with a side of the macaroni salad. Sandwiches were quite tasty with the toasted bread and how everything melted together. The burger which was pretty big in size. Tasty from what I was informed and served with a side of fries. Lastly, the avocado toast with tomatoes. Simple and cheerful. Plus you need an extra side order of streak fries with ranch. Both ketchup and their avocado dip was brought out as well. Food was good, the service was great. Both with the gal at the register and the waitress bringing out the food. It's pet friendly which is also nice to have the little pup with us. Forgot, they also have a nice display case of sweets on hand. And cookies that were massive. Clearly one was had before the meal. Sweets beforehand is always a good idea. Great service, nice drink, live music and a lovely crowd. What a nice way to enjoy lunch on a Tuesday afternoon.

You might ask. Why the 1 star review. Well.... I ordered chilaquiles. The ones that come with green and red salsa.. i wanted to see which salsa was better. Green salsa is a beautiful flavor tangy lil spicy well seasoned. But it was just green salsa poured over chips.. not incorporated and cooked together. The red salsa was well seasoned spicy and smokey. Not sure if they uses chile morita or Chipotle. Same thing salsa just poured over chips.. i mean I can enjoy some crispy chilaquiles but that was just straight up chips and salsa. The beans on the side were also really good. The "steak" was carne picada.. and honestky it was a bit hard. My chilaquiles did not come with cheese or crema . So I asked the waitress if they weren't supposed to come with . She was very apologetic and brought ke some on the side... ummmmm. Didnt taste the same as it would've already been added to the plate. Then. While I was eating the chips with salsa on my plate I pull it of the plate and what do I see. A freaking nasty ass hair!! honestly its been hrs since I left and im still queasy. I called over one of the waitresss that was available and she said it was from the egg. Ummmmm seriously. From the egg. It was about 5inches long. How could it be from the egg. She freaking passed me off. Whe she saw my face she said she was gonna call her supervisor who was the waitess that I had from the start. She was super embarrassed and apologized.. she took my plate to the back and in fact came back to say it was a hair. "If I wanted anything else".. ummmm hell no!!!
