Came here for breakfast on a busy Saturday morning and was assisted by the friendly employees. I ordered a lavender latte with oat milk and French toast. So many menu options sounded so enticing so it was a struggle deciding what to order! The ambiance was very bright and eclectic yet warm and cozy all at the same time. I managed to score a table despite the crowd, but there is ample seating available inside and outside, including a communal table and some counter seating by the windows. My food came out fairly quickly but didn't feel rushed. They make it easy to order additional menu items at the table so you don't have to hop back in line if you don't want to. The lavender latte was sweet and earthy and very well balanced. It was creamy and well frothed and the espresso tasted very fresh. I absolutely loved the French toast. The bread was crunchy on the outside and soft and pillowy on the inside and was very sweet and flavorful. I really loved the fresh berries, real maple syrup and coconut whipped cream. Everything worked so well together and it was such a decadent and filling meal. I also felt great after eating it and was easy to digest. Parking is super easy in their giant lot with lots of other businesses. They are located at the center of the shopping plaza and are easy to locate! I wish I lived closer so I could come all the time but I will definitely return the next time I am in the area! read more

VEGAN REVIEW Stayed nearby for a work trip, came here both days for breakfast, picked up lunch & took some treats home! This is an amazing little vegan & mostly gluten free cafe. I LOVE brunch & that is hard as a vegan, I was so grateful that this place had options to satisfy both sweet & savory cravings. Good coffee & tea drinks. The salads are HUGE & so tasty. Small but mighty selection of vegan cheese, salami & other tasty vittles. Really good desserts & baked goods. Lovely space& friendly staff. Very eco-friendly, as well. read more

This restaurant was so trendy and cute. You walk up to the cashier, order, you get a number and then you sit down and they'll bring your food to you. We ordered the French toast and Huevos Rancheros. The food tasted amazing and we were not disappointed. Highly recommend if you are vegan and even if you're not, you wouldn't even notice. Seriously. read more

I've had this place saved for a while now and since I was in the area I stopped by to grab a little snack. It's a plant-based cafe with lots of gluten free options. Inside seating with an outside patio. Big parking lot inside a shopping center. They had plenty of fresh pastries to choose from but the one that caught my eye was the cinnamon roll. I have been on the hunt for a good gluten free one and this one is delicious, I just wished it was warmed up. As for service, the cashier I had was a little rude. I asked a question about the cinnamon roll being gluten free as there was no signage and I wanted to double check and she looked at me like I should know better and then replied with a yes. Also when I asked for it to go, she just hands me the box; no utensils and didn't even mention where to grab any if they were near by. Not sure if she's the normal cashier but try and be more friendly, esp when you don't know if this is someone's first time in the establishment. read more

Was looking for a coffee spot as we were randomly in the area on a Sunday morning. Service and ambiance was friendly. GVO and latte were not good. They tasted burnt and grainy. Lavender latte was similar with only a scent of lavender but no taste of it. Kid like the hot chocolate. The burrito was pretty good. Salsa was flavorful. We'd probably return to try other options available food wise and maybe give them another shot with their drinks. read more

I love JOi Cafe and try to time my visits along 101 to mealtime so I can have an excuse to go. I haven't had anything less than delicious, no matter what I've ordered. I'm off gluten AND dairy so if you too have dietary restrictions, you MUST check it out!! Last week I got a Breakfast Burrito and Cortado coffee (pictured) then a Whoopie pie and cookie dough ball to go (not pictured). While that blew my diet big time, I was able to make it all last -- was worth it! The burrito actually lasted me two meals and the desserts were cut so I could make them last, as well. Lots of food that fit my diet. Sunday mornings there is a farmer's market right outside so it tends to be extremely crowded. This past visit I went early on a Saturday morning. I had my choice of parking and seat, service was quick and friendly, and I was out the door shortly. There are clear menus and lots of ordering options. Some of the items (like in the refrigerated case on the side) are out of my budget and nothing in that case had a price tag on it. I guess most of their patrons don't need to ask about prices (I did and it quickly became apparent that everything in that case is off limits for me!) So if budget is an issue, focus on the items in the main menu. Highly recommend! read more

Felt really good taking care of my body with a tasty detox vegan meal at Joi. The fresh ingredients presented innovatively made me forget I was eating vegan only dishes. Without meat, the aroma, taste and texture of vegan ingredients were more pronounce and sharp. Side items that usually were secondary to meat suddenly were more appreciated and enjoyable. The refreshing environment complimented the vegan food nicely. We were here for lunch and it was bustling. Will be back for sure. read more

We live in the area and wanted to try a new coffee shop. We ordered the cloud surfer cold brew which was delicious. The staff were very friendly and answered all of our questions. They have some of the best vegan/vegetarian selections. The only thing I wish they added was a little more ice to our coffees, as it was warm outside so our coffees got warm quickly. read more

Tried again this morning but instead of placing an order for later in the day I placed the order for now. Showed up 10 mins after it said it would be ready by and lo and behold: my order was waiting for me. Don't know what happened the first time. Maybe it was a bad day/bad workers, or they don't know how to plan ahead for orders at certain times but my advice is if you are placing an order avoid scheduling a time and just do ASAP. Food was delicious, staff was nice. Would give 5 stars but that first time still leaves a bad impression. read more

I discovered JOI Café a few weeks ago, when my son, who eats vegan, and my wife and I picked out the restaurant at random. I have returned there to eat every week since. I love the food, and the service, and the ambience. The owner, Joi, is so friendly that I feel like I am with family when I am there. I decided that each time I go there I will eat a different meal. And all that I've eaten is wonderful. I feel certain you'll find it to your liking too. I drive there from my home in Encino, and I would drive there, even if I lived much further away.

Overpriced. $6+ for a 9oz cappuccino with oat milk?!?????!? I know prices are inflated in California, but this is freaking absurd to a freakishly tiny coffee. Ingredients costs: $0.50 at most for the beans, prob 1/2 that as they will get in bulk and wholesale. Barista style oat milk: $0.34 retail, so again that will be cheaper. Cup (bulk price) $0.25, cost of espresso machine (commercial assuming a new one per year!) per cup less than $0.10. Labor (will be generous based on Google): $21/hr gives $1/drink. Total so far: about $2.20. Yes, rent and utilities, but still feel like being gouged. Nope, won't be going back. read more

Came to the area for a haircut, I used to be a local and was a bit homesick. Stopped at Joi cafe which was always a favorite for ordering lunch from when I lived and worked in the area. As usual, the staff is fantastic and everything on the menu looked fantastic, the inside is adorable with shelves of wonderful items and I knew if I browsed I would definitely get myself into trouble. I decided to go for something new to me anyway and ordered the hot girl avocado toast. The flavors were deliciously layered making each bite a delight. I highly recommend checking out Joi cafe if you're lucky enough to live nearby, or just in the area it is more than worth it stop in' read more

You guys this place is insanely good. Drove out from SF valley on a Saturday and this place was busy! Don't worry tho, it's located in a great complex so there's plenty of parking and seating. I ordered an Almond Milk Latte and their Blue Lavender Collagen Smoothie (made in a bowl) without granola. I am literally planning my drive back next weekend as I write this, it was that good. Latte was smooth, perfect level of foam and their espresso is great. Smoothie was the star of the show. I absolutely love the fact that you can get any smoothie as bowl (I'm always wanting bowls instead of a drink!) and the flavors of the bowl are perfect. Literally no notes! I chose to sit outside and enjoy the sun but the inside had plenty of seats and outlets for laptops. They also have a grab and go station with so many yummy looking options. Ignore any negative reviews of staff. They are so kind, even the manager was checking with every table if they needed anything. New fave vegan spot! read more

The following is an espresso drink review -Cortado 4oz. Glassware Cup -$6.00 -Roast: Medium, 2 oz Espresso -Milk: Almond -Foam Art: Blossom -TOD: 11:00 am -Prep: More than 5min (two orders up) -Machine: Mavam UCEM -Roaster: Blossom Coffee -Baked Goods: yes -Menu: Breakfast, Lunch -Review: Medium roast past first crack; higher acid than full roast so bean flavor is fruit adjacent espresso balanced with silky steamed almond milk. 2oz/2oz espresso, milk substitute. The faux leche does not produce a true Cortado taste. There is an oat milk option, also. Both flavors are distinct from a trad Cortado but worthy steamed drink variants. -Tip Worthy?: 15% Level (Tip-Worthy Scale: 0%; 10%; 15%; 20%; 25%; 25%+) -Customer: Loyal patrons frequent the cafe mostly for a full cafe dining experience, not so much just to sip coffee. The vegan meals btw: chef's kiss. read more

Whoever designed their interior knew what they were doing creating an inviting "sit and stay for a bit " type of vibe . All the merch and goodies on display kept my adhd self busy enough to not mind waiting on my order. We ordered: Decaf Ginger Lemongrass hot tea tasted better than I expected tbh . It's light and smooth with a very subtle floral aroma . Makes me feel all cozy inside. Drip coffee with 2 sticks of stevia was ok. Very light in flavor. Breakfast Burrito came out hot, nicely wrapped and readily cut in half. Also came with a side of green salsa that was light and not too spicy imo. So glad I ordered this! Was a bit hesitant after seeing mixed reviews about it being dry. Mine was made to perfection from texture of all the fillings & tortilla wrap to the compilation of flavors combined. Ham and Cheese Croissant was toasted for us . It's not bad for a small bite that's slightly filling. Tasted good like a ham and cheese should. Good flakiness not toooo messy. read more

Love the vibe. Really cute with the decor and vibe. Feels welcoming and fun with the colors and books, candles etc. Ordered a matcha and a breakfast burrito. Wish matcha was warmer but it was good. Breakfast burrito was okay. Just wasn't a huge fan since it was all vegetarian. Would like to try the pancakes next time. Huge plus is that there is a changing table in your bathroom for parents with kiddos! read more

Service has much improved since my last visit. I also ordered the fajita chicken salad three days in a row. Got one extra large ranch on the side and a habanero salsa. It's enough for two but it's my only meal of the day. The Thai me up salad is great too. It's busy at breakfast times. Picking up orders is still a bit of a wait if there's a line. Nice little cafe, nice employees. Good for cyclists, hikers, and locals alike. Outdoor seating is nice, shade or sun. Farmers market in the parking lot on Sundays makes Joi Cafe even more fun. (They often source bread from the five frogs stand, hope that wasn't a company secret lol. The same stand has a yummy vegan chocolate croissant and cinnamon roll if you're early enough but I don't think they sell them at Joi. Joi has a decent chocolate chip cookie, some additional rotating pastries as well.) read more

Worth the drive from Studio City! Had the Bagel Sandwich always flavorful with a wonderful aioli sauce, and a side salad (you can also have fruit). And the Minty Matcha which I highly recommend.

You can't go wrong as the owner has truly taken the time to ensure each item on the menu is a wonderful blend of flavors. read more

My favorite lavender latte and matcha! Mind you everything is vegan over there. I don't know they do it but the oat and almond milk that they made in house is so much better than any coffee places I've tried. Some of the food is surprisingly good, too. My favorites are Caesar salad, ahi tuna poke bowl, jackfruit fish tacos. They used to have Alfredo a few years ago, which was also my favorite but sadly they don't have that anymore read more

JOi Cafe - Lavender latte - Vegan Near Me - Westlake Village, California

Great spot for some coffee and grub (pastries, toasts, cookies, muffins, tacos, burger, burritos, salad/harvest bowls, soup). Located in a strip mall with plenty of parking in the private lot. They have a lot of seating both inside and outside. The cafe has a nice, cozy, and warm vibe to it. Overall, it's clean and service is prompt. 1. G.V.O (5/5) Seriously the best coffee creation! A combination of cinnamon, rich chocolate, Orange Zest & CBD with almond or oat milk. I prefer it with oat milk for extra creaminess and depth. The espresso is also strong and comes through + compliments the chocolate. I love that it's rich, but yet, not too sweet. The Joi Chai latte is another one of my favorite drinks! 2. Tacos (3.5/5) 1 order comes with 2 tacos. I got chicken and jackfruit 'Fish' with Fajita-Style bell peppers, onions, fresh tropical salsa, crisp cabbage, guacamole, and drizzled with sriracha aioli on warm organic corn tortillas. Comes also in chorizo for those who like/prefer pork. All of the ingredients were fresh. Wish they were not as skimpy on the proteins (chicken and fish). The corn tortilla was overpowering most of the flavor. 3. Pumpkin Spice Croissant French Toast (4/5) A fall special. Cinnamon & Pumpkin Spice Croissant French Toast. Made from vegan croissant coated in a 'egg' dip & grilled to perfection. Topped with a medley of seasonal organic berries and a dollop of creamy coconut whipped cream, which was not sweet, but delightfully light, airy, and cloud-like. Overall, I really enjoy Joibirds cafe. Sad to see the Thousand Oaks location close. read more

I LOVE the salads and also the tacos. So delicious!! The hot coffee drinks I've tried are really delicious as well. The reason I'm giving 3 stars is because the service really needs help...most of the time it's okay, or passable, but sometimes the lack of attention is really off-putting. This could be an AMAZING place if they could get their staff to be more attentive and engaged. It's cool seeing the owner spending time there herself, and invested in her customer's experiences. Not sure why that vibe isn't trickling down to the employees. It would seem like this type of restaurant would attract a certain person with a communal and positive mindset. Anyways, I'll still be eating here because I can't ignore it when that taco craving hits! But the truth is: I'd probably be eating here more frequently if it were not for the service. read more

I am changing my review back to 5 stars. The issue I mentioned in my previous review was addressed and taken care of in a very timely manner. To further demonstrate Joi Cafe's dedication to customer service and attention to detail, I mentioned to Joi that I loved the sauce that comes with their tacos. A few days afterwards, she presented me with a very generous jar of the sauce and it was complimentary. I was very touched by her consideration and it really goes to show that Joi Cafe really values their clientele and definitely goes above and beyond. read more

1. Not friendly when ordering. Bad vibes. 2. The "small" size hot coffee is laughable. I thought it was a joke. Looks like it's meant for a toddler. There's no way it's 9oz like the sleeve says and it leaked and dripped on me with every sip. 3. Pumpkin spice latte tastes like dirt, no pumpkin flavor to be found. 4. Way too expensive overall. read more

I was visiting the farmers market in the square one sunday morning and craving a morning beverage- i am basic and love a weekend matcha from a cafe. Stopped by Joi cafe as it was recommended by a friend- cute cafe with some light bites and bakery items on offer and a menu filled with interesting drinks for coffee and non-caffeinated, juices etc. Seems pretty health conscious too which i love- offering gluten free options and non-dairy for the drinks. The lady at the register taking my order was so pleasant and friendly, I had a few questions on the different drinks they had and what was in them and she happily talked me through the ingredients and flavors in each drink. I went for the blue butterfly (thought I'd switch it up from my usual matcha- although their matcha menu is pretty elite with different flavor matcha drinks) which was a perfect choice- this drink was so delicious; perfectly sweet and creamy and steamy hot, i wish every cafe had this drink on offer so i could get it more often! Their to-go cups are the cutest also- love the design with the hummingbird on it- a little work of art cup. The food choices they had looked great also- nice colorful bright interior in this organically conscious cafe, seems pretty popular and has a good buzz about it. read more

Joi cafe is so cute, the interior is decorated well and they have lots of vegan products displayed around the front of the store. Service was quick and easy. I ordered an iced mocha latte. It tasted great! It did have a gritty texture, though. I'm not sure if it's because of an ingredient in the coffee, but just a heads up. Otherwise it would have been a 10/10 for me! read more

Joi Finding good quality coffee places that have consistently great tasting coffee, excellent service and the right atmosphere is really challenging in the Conejo Valley / Westlake area. Joi fits the bill; my Oatmilk Lattes are always superb as are my Cortado's- rich coffee taste with a creamy flavorful froth .. coffee is also organic. The cafe is always clean as is the outside patio area, (plenty of shade ) and the 'two all gender' restrooms have always been spotless. *If you are planning on a Sunday morning visit be mindful that it will be extremely busy and parking will be tricky as there is a Farmers Market held in the parking lot most Sundays. read more

Delicious organic, plant based, vegan, and gluten free meals and desserts locally owned and run. Especially love the kimchi grilled cheese, gluten free, warm, and toasted with watermelon, melon, and strawberry fruit. Matcha and almond milk lattes are the best made with organic whole coffee beans. We love getting our bulk coffee beans here and adore the vegan and gluten free desserts: cookies, donuts, chocolates, and more. Awesome gender neutral restrooms and refill water stations. All around amazing. Thank you for this slice of paradise! read more

The coffees and the desserts are great! Food is 50-50 especially if you eat there. Sometimes it comes out right away but often times it comes out later and it's not hot. If you get it to go, you might have a better chance of getting it right away. And some of the dishes are put together just OK and I'm someone who loves vegan food. It seems to have had more attn to the food in the past and lately it's just eh! Still good smoothies and coffees. read more

Great food. Was just looking for something vegetarian friendly. Didn't know this was full BFF Friendly! Taco Taco / you can choose from different meats. I had the chicken and Soyrizo. Loved it and highly recommended. Flavors popped off the plate. Fun Tuna Sandwich / really good as well. But the star of the show was the bread. What!!! I could eat a loaf of that. The tuna was nice tasting - I just remember a place on Maui (Down to Earth) had a chunky mock tuna salad that I preferred - added more texture. But this was good too. Let's just say, there was no leftovers. Haha Broccoli cheese soup - yup! Would order this again and again. Hard to believe this is cream free. Fun place. Lively. Great food. read more
