Very friendly staff! Tried the Interlude Coffee and it was delicious. Definitely will be coming back soon.

(Update: they earned their half star back by opening at 6:30 am, ha!) They've added more food items and kept the same friendly service. A great coffee shop in Uptown. read more

i really liked how clean and nice interlude coffee was, and our drinks didn't take long to come out. the staff was also really nice, and i liked their point system! the only thing was that i got the pumpkin mazapán latte and the honey piloncillo latte, and unfortunately i didn't taste much of the flavors that were supposed to be in them. i also tried the matcha and couldn't really taste the strawberry flavor. overall, i liked the place and the service, but i wish the drinks had a stronger flavor that matched what they were advertised as. read more

I was invited to meet up at this coffee shop and was super excited about trying a new spot. It was my first time there and I had questions about the menu and the cashier came off very rude. I just quickly ordered the interlude drink because I felt pressured to order something quick. I didn't even want to waste time looking at the pastries. In my opinion the drink was overpriced for the size and it wasn't anything amazing that you can't get at another coffee shop for less of a cost. Gave it two stars (2.5 really) because the place was clean. Restrooms were clean and we had a nice encounter with another staff member. read more

If you're looking for a spot to unwind, this coffee shop is the new hidden gem. The chill atmosphere makes it the perfect place to relax or get some work done, while the friendly staff provides top notch service every visit. Their menu has an impressive selection of coffees, and specialty drinks, so there's something for everyone. Great vibes, great people, and even better coffee i'll definitely be back to try more drinks. read more

Overall I had a pretty good experience here! The inside is very clean and aesthetic with a good decent amount of seating. There's indoor seating with the regular tables and chairs, as well as cushioned seating, bar style seating and outdoor seating as well! Plenty of options. I stayed for a little while to study and felt very comfortable. The man who took my order and helped me was very nice! He was encouraging of asking questions about the menu. And didn't rush me or anything! To drink, I ordered the Interlude Coffee. He explained to me it's kind of their own take on the Spanish Latte. I enjoyed it, it didn't taste all that sweet and I feel like Spanish Lattes can often have an overwhelming taste of cinnamon but this drink did not overdo it! I will note, you can only order this drink in 12oz size and I do feel like it's slightly pricier than other shops for the size, but nothing too too crazy. read more

A new coffee shop in uptown Whittier! They are currently still in soft opening but it's a nice spacious space with plenty of seating inside. Since they are still in soft opening, they haven't finalized their food menu. But their drinks were outstanding! We got their signature The Interlude, Ode to Uptown and the Honey Piloncillo Shaken Latte. All their drinks were very delicious, nicely balanced and not overly sweet. The staff are very nice. They helped us all choose our drinks and answered all our questions. I'll definitely be coming back. read more

The coffee hit the spot. I love the ambiance. So spacious and perfect for a meet up with friends or a business meeting. The best part is they open at 6:30 am and most coffee shops open at 7 or 8 too late to get your day started. Fast service. Check them out with their comfy chairs. Comfy chairs and coffee read more

Great fast customer service. The berries matcha was just the perfect amount of sweetness. The ode to uptown was definitely something out of my comfort zone but surprisingly really good. I just wish they added a bit more tajin. The butter croissant was so flaky and warm. read more

Great service, Great Coffee, Cool atmosphere! 2nd time coming in and both times we had great service and great coffee. Order: We ordered Honey Piloncillo shaken latte. It's the right amount of sweet and coffee balance. This is my go to order, I get 1/2 the sweetness. Their house cold brew is one of our new favorites. Stong foral flavor with a smooth finish. Very easy to drink black. Their banana bread is delicious! Try it, it's worth it. Service: Quick and friendly. Weekends, we coffee shop hop, and so far Interlude is easy to be in and out. Even when there was a line out the door everyone got their coffee fairly quick. They have several baristas on staff and they are all helpful and friendly. Both times we went the owner helped us out and made us feel welcome. We will definitely be back read more

This place has become our family's regular spot. The coffee is genuinely good! Like really good! And my kids always talk about the chocolate milk, mostly because the baristas draw little designs on top for them, and it's a friendly environment. The staff even give out coloring sheets and pencils to them! It never gets old for my kids, and honestly it's pretty charming to watch. The pastries are worth the trip on their own. Get the pesto and tomato one with a coffee and you've got yourself a real breakfast. On weekdays I'll sometimes camp out with my laptop for a couple hours. It's clean, comfortable, and quiet enough to actually get work done, which is rarer than it should be. Friendly staff, great coffee, happy kids. Hard to beat. read more

We enjoy coming here on a regular basis, in the mornings, before the crowd. We like to try something new each time, coffee and/or matcha, and a pastry. We always ask for recommendations. We've gotten to know the staff, since we are regulars and they are friendly and kind. We love their interior design and space and it reminds me of Cancun. read more

The coffee is good, but I didn't like how slow the service was. I was waiting in line a long time (15 mins) and than standing at the cash register they had me waiting even more. They also told me part of what I was ordering wasn't ready and so I might have to wait longer! I think for it being so early, it doesn't make sense to be out or not have someone just dedicated to making the foam on the signature drink. Also, I think for a small my total was $9! At that price I expect my drink much quicker!! I understand they are new but I'm not motivated to return, I'll have to give them another try in a few months read more

Was excited to try this place and wasbt disappointed. I got a honey latte and my daughter got the kids latte. I thought it was so cute they had an option for kids with decafe coffee. Felt like a great caffinee alternative for my preteen who wants somwthing a little grown up. The inside itself is really thoughtfully designed with plenty of comfy seating to hang out in. read more

Their cold brew is one of the best I've had in the area. The cold brew has a wonderful fruity aroma that makes it a joy to sip. Their pastries are incredibly buttery and the croissants in particular are flaky and rich, and complements their coffee quite well. The space with its multiple seating options is conducive to relaxing, studying, hanging with friends, etc. Lots of natural light filtering in too. A local gem. read more

My daughters and I are avid coffee drinkers, and this has quickly become our favorite coffee spot in Uptown. The customer service is outstanding, the ambiance is warm and inviting, and the overall experience was excellent. After having a negative experience with the previous business (Lift) that occupied this space, where I was charged for an order I never received and ultimately had to dispute the charge with my bank, it was refreshing to receive such great service here. I highly recommend the flat white and their signature Interlude drink. Both were delicious! My only wish is that the signature drink came in a larger size because it's that good. We'll definitely be back! read more

I am officially a new Interlude regular I highly recommend this shop to everyone. The coffee is great and the pastries are also a hit. I recommend trying the Honey Piloncillo Shaken Latte or the Interlude house specialty drink, my daughter recommends the Strawberry Matcha. The staff and atmosphere is very inviting and friendly. The owner was very polite and dare I say easy on the eyes. The Interlude is a great addition to Uptown!! read more

Interlude Coffee - The Intruder house signature drink, Strawberry Matcha and pastries. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Whittier, California

First week being open! With a full house the vibes were still very mellow. Lots of people working/studying or having quiet conversations. Plenty of tables and additional seating at the bar. Drinks I ordered: (From Left to Right) Cortado, Berries & Cream Matcha and The Interlude. The menu shows their house espresso has notes of chocolate and you can definitely pick up on that in their drinks. *Do note that their menu does have a typo and The Berries & Cream Matcha is not strawberry but it's actually Blueberry!* Cortado & Matcha were good. The interlude unfortunately was just alright. The warm baking spice was nice but I felt everything else lacked. There also wasn't really any sweetness to it and I don't think the cream top really added anything. I'll give this drink another shot at a later date. I'll still be going back to try their other specialty drinks in hopes that maybe the flavors land a little bit better. read more

This coffee shop has quickly become my new favorite! I had the Interlude coffee which was so delicious with the cold foam, so rich and creamy. my boyfriend ordered the Honey Piloncillo Shaken Latte, perfectly sweet caramel flavor and also refreshing. I ordered two Raja burritos and turned out to be absolutely delicious. The tortilla tasted homemade, the eggs were so buttery and the tomatillo salsa completed it. This was my third visit here. Each time the staff has been attentive, greets you as you enter and overall a friendly environment. The owner was also there, very attentive and nice, while also making sure everything was running smooth. Taking care of both his team and customers. read more

I genuinely don't think it's worth the money. The coffee is good, but not $8 for a 12oz latte kind of good. The staff was kind; the ambiance is nice. Just not worth the price. I ordered a small hot honey Piloncillo latte, regular milk. It was nice, not especially special. It reminds me of Urth's cafe Honey Vanilla Latte with the lighter espresso blend. Comparing prices, Urth's 12oz honey vanilla latte is $6.95. In my honest opinion, the idea of specialized coffees is a marketing ploy, even if they do make their own syrups. It doesn't justify the price point for me, unfortunately. The price point might make more sense for those looking for alternative milks at 0 extra cost. However, for those who want regular whole milk, the price point doesn't meet the intended value. read more

The coffee is really good, and I love the atmosphere here. However, I'm really disappointed that the lavender cream top is almost never available. It's listed on the menu, so it's frustrating to keep coming in hoping to try it, only to be told they're out. I even show up early in hopes they're not sold out. If it's consistently unavailable, it would be better to either keep it stocked or remove it from the menu. Hopefully they can fix this because it sounds like a great addition to the drinks! read more

Interlude Coffee - Iced Honey Piloncillo Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Whittier, California

Newly opened coffee shop in Uptown Whittier. Came on a Saturday around noon. Place was busy as everyone seemed to want to try it out. Line went quickly and plenty of places to sit. Younger guy at the cashier was very helpful and friendly. Place was very nicely decorated and welcoming. It is dog friendly and there was a couple of tables outside to sit and enjoy with your pup. I ordered their specialty "The Interlude" which was an iced 12oz latte. Had a very nice coffee forward flavor with a cream topper that was not too sweet. It is only available in the 12oz size and did seem a bit pricey at $8.50. They had pastries available which I skipped as they were also pricy at $6-8 each , appears be from an outside bakery. Given the prices would not likely be a place i stop by regularly to grab a coffee to go but would be a great place to meet friends or have a coffee date. read more

Of all the newly opened shops AND the older ones (maybe besides Local Fixture) out here, in and around uptown this one stuck out for their FAST and ATTENTIVE service & attention to DETAIL. The team had my order ready before I paid and even answer a few questions I had. I've been in coffee for over 13 years now and I don't believe in judging an entire business then, leaving a significant review after one visit --especially not for a freshly opened spot. I like to try em out a few times bc you never know if it's just an off day, or maybe you got the only good worker that day, etc. It's not snobby and yet it's not basic. Seems like a great spot to bring the experienced or inexperienced. Quick enough to grab and go, nice enough for a date, big enough for a family sized table, quite enough to study at the bar. Hopefully they remain great enough to build that special regular-relationship with the locals. These are all things I would want for my own shop. Wishing your self built biz well. Cheers! read more

Interlude is a high end coffee shop located in Uptown Whittier. The owner, Sam, put a ton of care into renovating this spot (previously Lift) and it shows. He cares a lot about this town and his community. The coffee is high quality and I encourage anyone to try the drip first! The fancy lattes are great too, but nothing beats pure roasted bean juice imo. read more

Excellent coffee here. Sam the owner let us come in to try the goods. Luis executed the best coffee options. I had 2 of their specialty drinks, 1 iced latte that had cinnamon and other warming spices, 1 hot latte that was made with a house made orange syrup that was incredible and a plain latte that will compete against the very best. This place went from a regular coffee shop to a top notch coffee contender. The renovations are an upgrade for sure. Clean and contemporary. This is the new coffee shop for us in uptown. Good luck guys, Godspeed. read more

The coffee is great and the staff are friendly! It's the perfect spot to read or get coffee with friends.

Based solely on the coffee. We got the honey piloncillo coffee and the signature interlude coffee and we were disappointed. The coffee was mostly sweet and very little coffee flavour. Both the drinks were both sugary and watery. Maybe we went on an off day but it wasn't enjoyable to drink. read more

Was in the area and was excited to try a local coffee shop. The shop is nice and very clean. Staff should be friendlier and more welcoming to customers. Zero hospitality. Ordered a hot and iced vanilla latte. Ordered iced coffee with light ice and was given a coffee at about 75% filled in an already small sized cup, which is the largest they offer.Flavor of drink was good. Family owned businesses usually separate themselves and attract customers by their flavor and hospitality. They need to work on their hospitality read more

Coffee is great, cold brew is great, and their wifi is super quick. Comfy chairs and power outlets if you need to plug in.

The iced coffee is probably not what they are known for. I went into for the first time and the drink I was suggest wasn't my favorite. It was very aesthetic and the ambiance is very nice. Service was good. Drink itself just wasn't all that for an almost $9 latte. First picture is my drink when I bought it , second picture is my drink after because I just couldn't finish it. read more
