Entrance
Amir P.

I got green tea with honey and ginger. Service was great but they are SEVERELY understaffed. They need to hire more people I waited at least 20 minutes for this one cup. The ambiance is cool. Wish it was more cozier: Parking was cool. Pull up and there were a few spots. All in all I'd probably go back

Peach Pastry

I was a regular at Hojas a few years ago, since I would often stop by before or after my classes at LBCC. I returned a few weekends ago and it didn't disappoint. It was a Saturday morning and the ambiance still felt like a neighborhood coffee spot. The staff was friendly and nice enough to give a few minutes to look at the menu and answer some questions. There isn't a lot of space to sit inside. There are a few tables outside at the sidewalk. The inside though, is lovely decorated with plants and other things. I got a Cafe con Leche drink, and it was just as expected. My only comment would be that you can only get a certain size for certain drinks; but I assume it is common. They also have pastries including cookies, cake, and macaroons as well as food items. I have never gotten food, but the pastries have always been delicious!

Peaceful lavender

This place is small. They do allow dogs, there is only 2 tables, 1 outlet, free wifi, 2 free hour parking in the back and street parking. The lighting is dark in here and cold. They don't have a bathroom here. The staff said it would take them about 5 minutes to make my drink. I got the peaceful lavender. It came out to be $5.50. This is great for those lactose intolerant folks and vegans as it's made with coconut milk. The lavender in this tea was so potent and it tasted like fresh lavender was in it vs those lavender syrups that coffee shops use. It definitely was calming drinking it. This made me want to look forward to spring. Just looking at their menu, I want to try their other tea options. It seems this place is always getting customers.

Cafe con Leche
Reese J.

I'm so glad I finally got myself in here. Hojas is located on a major street with sparking spaces directly in the front. It's a fairly small cafe with a few indoor seating but they do not offer any restrooms. I ordered the cafe con leche and the chefs special bagel and was pleased with both. I want to say my favorite part about my experience here was the customer service - super great vibes, very accommodating and friendly. I would definitely come back and recommend!

These hours don't reflect the hours on Google and Yelp. This business can't get this simple thing right
Michael P.

I've stopped by this particular Hojas in the afternoon TWICE and both times they were closed. On Yelp and Google, their hours state 9 pm but when I get there I see this sign saying they close MUCH earlier. Having accurate hours is a BASIC step for a business, and the fact they haven't corrected this in over a year tells me they don't respect customers' time. AVOID THIS PLACE.

Hojas has been one of my favorite tea shops for years. I started going to their San Pedro location in 2020. They have an amazing variety of hot and iced teas with a variety of blends. My favorite is the peaceful lavdendar which mixes Oolang tea, lavender and coconut milk. The absolute best.

Thanks to my niece Coco for introducing me to this place. I look forward to trying more of their food.

Blown away by my Americano and Avocado Toast this morning. My niece introduced me to this place. She kept raving how good it was and we never could connect to go together. Today it happened. So happy it did. The service there is very friendly and inviting. You feel like you are at a friend's home. Staff is very helpful and the food they make is AMAZING So don't be fooled by the small space because it gives a big punch of flavor and friendliness. Thanks, Jed

I love supporting small Coffee Shops/Eateries and also venues and Of All kind. So it's a Thursday AM and this is about 5min driving distance, and to quite honest I was headed to another location to Yelp for coffee humbleBraggs eatery And since o was at the stoplight I said why not let me pull over and see what Yelp has to say. So here we go I walk in ,did not get greeter even though he was taking an order a quick Good Morning or Hello I'll be with you. Look at the menu because the menu on Yelp just wasn't sufficient for me lol I needed the real deal in front of me. So , I would've sat and had my munchies inside but it was chilli.. So the customer service The gentleman can be a little more upbeat and helpful and thank the customer for his tip, instead he walks away before the transaction is even done . server AM S so just a $2 tip Music very low but you can still feel the vibe Cleaningness, table was dirty I order the Lemon Bar ****(4). Very tasty and not too Tarty ,however it is cold maybe let it sit for 10min so it will not be as cold and thick. Also the PB with a honey and Bananas on Multi grain ,very healthy and actually my first bite did it .not too much honey but you can taste the rawness of it ****(4) My steel oats with Strawberries -1 please the photo So much water and not able to even taste the oats itself I'd like my refund for this a waste of $6 Coffee time let's see ( I'm hesitant to even open the lid) Okay phew *****(5) Overall it's a Hit but a Miss on the Customer Service And the OAts boo!! Added 1 pack of sugar Steel oats **(2) because of all the juice water

We were in the area and wanted some matcha and this place popped up. Ample amount of street parking and realized I've been here before many many moons ago. I'm not a big tea person so I got the coconut mango infusion. It wasn't sweet enough for me so they added more coconut sweetener for me :) taste like coconut w a hint of mango but the drink came w mango slices yum! The matcha w coconut taste healthy and delicious. The coconut infusion (hot) was light tasting and we requested more coconut sweetener as well. Energize me is pretty good, my friend gives it two thumbs up. Service was really good and the guy taking our order was extremely patient and even offered sample to help us out w our ordering. Overall: my friend has been looking for a place that serves Yerba Mate and my wife loved the matcha w coconut. We'll be back if we're ever in the area

Cute local tea house with some health teas and healing tonics along with the normal fun stuff. I love places with homeopathic options so this will be a new regular spot for me. Teas: 3/5 - Fruity Fiesta - I was a little let down from this one. I expected a more fruity flavor but it contains milk (I had oat milk) and I didn't care for that blend so much. A little on the bland side. 5/5 - Relieve my cold - got this for my son who had a cold at the time. It was a nice array of ingredients that your grandma would make for you when you had a cold. You'd make it yourself if you had all the ingredients but thankfully Hojas has your back. 5/5 - Crema con miel - milky and caramelly. Very tasty blend that I recommend. 5/5 - Original house Chai - whatever your expectations are in a Chai tea, this should exceed it. 5/5 - French Sable cookie - a light, slightly crisp and flaky cookie that reminds you of a blend of a shortbread cookie mixed with a tea cookie from the south. I loved this cookie and will be back very soon for it!! Parking in the village is what it is, you just wait for someone else to leave. It's a pretty fast turnover normally, no issues. Service was good. Facility was good. Will be back!

Green tea coconut fusion (hot) and peaceful lavender (cold). Love it!

I bought a cup of coffee and was charged 50 cents for cream...that's crazy. I guess you shouldn't buy coffee at a tea house.

Ask the Community - Hojas Tea House

Do you guys still use the loose tea leaf with filter tops? Last time I ordered a chai tea and it was a tea bag? Not sure if things have changed?

I'm wondering too! Last time it was pre packaged tea bag! The loose tea leaves and flowers is what made Hojas stand out. Hopefully it was just a inventory issue.

Do they bring order curbside?

no you have to go inside

Do you have almond milk for those lactose intolerant?

For an extra charge, they offer the substitution of almond milk on their coffee menu.

Do you offer soy milk for tea?

I see that you can sub soy milk for an extra charge.

She says "the coffee is too strong, it can harm you." I say, who came up with that? What if it was lactose and tolerant, she said "we have almond milk? I said, what if I'm allergic to that? She said "well, it's just store policy." I said, well fine.... Can you pour me another cup of coffee? She said "certainly, with ice or no ice." I said... Stop, now why would you pour me another cup of coffee if it can harm me but you don't want to top off my cup with coffee? She got mad.... I was mad. Of course, I think honestly. These are the most rude and money hungry, despicable people to practice business. It's safe to say, I will never go back to this business and or recommend them to anyone else. Yeah, this is just a review to some people. But if you like to drink your coffee black, how you like it, light ice and filled up. At this place it will cost you another 1.25 to fill it up. Hand to GOD So they charge you for the small. But want an extra 1.25 to fill it up. That's 6.25 for a cup of coffee. Meanwhile they gave me a despicable look and says "it's only 1.25 more." The double tongued policy adjustment and the service doesn't meet the standard for anyone to spend a buck with these people. "Our coffee is strong. So we can't top off your drink for your health reasons, unless you pay 1.25 more." It is exactly what they said. Thee ambiance gives cool vibes but it is far less then.

The café has outside and inside seating. I prefer to sit outside since there were a lot of students working on their laptops and I didn't want to cause any distraction since we were there to mingle and chat. Being outside was nice, but you also still have other people seated outside, or in passing. The barista/cashier was friendly, especially when I let him know that it was my first time. He asked me what my likes were and said he can make that for me. I went with a hot honey cinnamon vanilla latte and it was good. It may have needed more to it because it was not flavorful and sweet enough. I couldn't taste the honey or cinnamon. It tastes more like a vanilla latte. But I think this is an easy fix next time I order. They also have a restroom for customers which I visited, and it was clean. There is plenty of parking and this is definitely a college crowd, but welcome to everyone.

Got the Chai latte-good, creamy and frothy and maybe a tad sweet. Lots of pastries to choose from-I got a cinnamon knot to go with the flavor of the chai.

After browsing a couple pics on Yelp, I decided to try their chai latte. (Since moving to Long Beach from San Diego two years ago, I've been DYING for a creamy cup of chai. Everywhere I'd tried so far was just a spicy cup of hot tea -- not creamy or very sweet at all. I had honestly given up looking but something about Wolf's made me try theirs.) I'm SO glad I did! I've FINALLY found my perfect cup of creamy chai latte in Long Beach! I don't live super close, but you bet I'll be making the 10-15 minute drive to get my chai latte fix every so often.

A very welcoming vibe upon entry, we were greeted by a friendly couple who answered our questions about popular drink flavors. We decided to go with a Hot Cinnamon Dulce Latte and an Iced Blueberry Lavender Latte. While waiting, there were plenty of chairs, tables, a comfy couch and even a bar area to sit and relax. Tons of board games, books and wonderfully mellow music helps make the experience feel comforting and inviting. Our drinks were prepared quickly and shouted at the coffee bar for pickup. The presentation was great, but the flavors, out of this world! The Cinnamon Dulce Latte was OUTSTANDING. So good, in fact, that my girlfriend stole it from me! Not to worry, her Blueberry Lavender Latte was also top-notch, with a smooth, not-to-sweet flavor combination. Friendly staff (which comes with occasional karaoke renditions from the Bluetooth speakers), a chill vibe and outstanding drinks make this a top spot in the area for hardcore coffee lovers.
