    Nice seating area. Iced vanilla latte, cookie butter latte, and pastries
    Sevy I.

    Loved this cozy, quiet outdoor coffee bar. The coffee was great, but they were low on pastries by the time we hit lunch. Definitely coming back earlier next time to catch the full morning spread!

    Pistachio latte

    Chic and cute place, perfect for a professional or personal coffee rendezvous. The pistachio latte was flavorful and perfectly balanced. The pastries are from Manresa bread, which is one of my favorite spots.

    New neighborhood coffee joint. Super cute mini truck serving unique flavors of coffee. Plenty of seating area for everyone with couches, benches etc. Came here to try out a new place and very glad we did because the service was top notch and tons of options. I noticed that the traffic was flowing very smoothly.. many people came and went - some sat down, some did to go but there were always people coming and going. If it's your first time, I would recommend taking it easy, enjoying your drink in one of their loungers :) I got the rose latte and it was delicious.

    Pistachio matcha latte

    A great spot to grab a caffeinated drink & sit and chat with your friends! Which is exactly what we did in late June ( I know, very late review). The barista was nice and the drink was yummy! I loved that there were different seating options (tables + chairs/bench and couch)! I would definitely come back if I'm ever in the area. Service: 5/5 Food/Drinks: 4/5 Price: 4/5 Atmosphere: 4/5

    Very cute fun coffee bar. The menu is quite expansive for a camper. The coffee was super good too. I stopped by mid day with a friend for some work time. They have street parking and a parking lot available and so much seating. Great for a coffee date, study spot, or remote work. I wish they had more snacks.

    Cute little place with lots of outdoor seating! It's right across from Leigh High School. Wanted to really like this place but the drinks we ordered lacked flavor. We got their Mint Matcha Lemonade - didn't taste much like of its name :( Lavender Latte also needed more oomph - not enough coffee or lavender taste for my personal liking. Service was nice and friendly.

    Hazelnut Latte

    Came here on a Saturday morning and wanted to try a new coffee spot. It wasn't too busy for a weekend. They have a cute outdoor set up. I parked in the neighborhood bc I wasn't too sure if the parking lot was theirs or the building next door. I decided to try one of their seasonal drinks which was a hazelnut latte. I could barely taste the hazelnut. Not sure if it's bc the Oatmilk was overpowering the flavor of it. For a small coffee, it came out to be ~$8 not including tip.

    Such a cute little outdoor coffee shop! It has a great seating area and makes you feel like you're in an outdoor cafe. The staff is always so kind and greets you when you arrive. I usually get an iced vanilla latte and it's one of the best I've had. I keep coming back because I think about it! It's a great place to come hang out with friends or just get some work done. Even though it's outside, it's in a quiet area so it feels very peaceful. Highly recommend!

    Nice little neighborhood coffee shop! All outdoor seating but a few covered areas to escape the rain. I got the lavender latte and my husband got a cortado.Make sure to specify you are drinking it there otherwise it'll be served to-go. I loved my latte however my husband's cortado was NOT a cortado,was served like a flat white/cap with 8 oz milk.He said all he tasted was milk We are picky with coffee...my husband owns a coffee roaster so he roasts his own beans (and we have all the commercial espresso gear- burr grinder HX machine etc) I would come back but not sure about my husband lol!

    Iced rose lattes on a sunny day on Kenz Coffee's patio
    Kate V.

    A sweet, unique cafe run out of a shiny trailer next to a nonprofit recreational center for kids, with the most delicious flavored lattes, like rose, saffron, and pistachio, and solid coffee, that also unapologetically stands for freedom for Palestine... could not be happier to find and support this gem in an otherwise everyday suburban South Bay neighborhood. Kenz roasts their own beans, they are top-notch, and we've easily rotated them into our morning home coffee-making routine. On days where I have a little more space in my schedule, I love choosing Kenz as a spot to chill with loved ones on the cute little patio alongside the rec center building next door. This winter, they put up a clear dome tent as an option to stay warm from the weather as you sip your drinks. During the summer, the open-air seating is calm and refreshing. They are very community-oriented, partnering with other small businesses recently to put on a little market fair that I'm sad to have missed. So glad that this cafe is around. Thank you Kenz for being here!

About 6 months ago I made a switch from the convenience of my Keurig to buying quality beans, grinding them myself and make proper Americanos instead of popping in a pod and pushing a button. I've done a lot of experiments with beans and so far I haven't found better beans than the beans I pick up from Tico Coffee Roasters. I really appreciate to have roasters of this quality in my neighborhood! Coffee is like wine, the better the quality is, the less you need. I used to go through 4-5 Keurig pods every day, but I'm plenty fulfilled by 1-2 cups of coffee made from Tico's beans. So even though it seems like I'm paying more for coffee with Tico, I'm not. I highly recommend you to try Tico's beans. They have amazing deals through Too Good To Go if you are looking for a deal to try it out.

I order a cappuccino and tried their coffee of the day: Sanger de Toro. To begin, the drip, tasted very smooth with a slight acidity, but not too much. The cappuccino with a base of Rialto had the bold, dark chocolate, and rich taste that was advertised, and the foam was fine to perfection. It's in an industrial area with car repair shops, so if you're in the area for that, it is definitely worth checking out; it is also worth a special trip for. The service was fast and friendly. And the ambiance was a coffee stand outside of a coffee brewing company

    I've been coming to Chromatic ever since a friend introduced me to it, and after several visits,…read moreI've realized that the experience here is about much more than just coffee. Every time I walk in, the baristas take the time to ask questions about what I enjoy, how I like my coffee, and what flavors I'm looking for. They don't simply take an order they guide you through the process and genuinely seem passionate about helping customers discover something they'll love. It's clear they care deeply about coffee and creating an experience rather than just serving another cup. On my most recent visit, I came in looking for espresso beans. I was originally interested in their Gamut espresso blend but was also searching for something on the darker side. The cashier recommended their original espresso blend over the darker roast options. While it wasn't exactly what I had in mind, I trusted the recommendation because everyone I've interacted with here has been incredibly knowledgeable. A few minutes later, while I was waiting for my order, a gentleman approached me and asked, "Would you like to try something a little darker?" Of course, I said yes. He proceeded to pull a fresh espresso shot of their Opus roast and walked me through the flavor profile. It was exactly what I had been looking for. What impressed me most wasn't just the coffee it was the hospitality. He went completely out of his way to make sure I found the right coffee for my taste. He explained that they didn't have full bags of Opus available yet because they were still in the roasting process, but then generously offered me half a bag so I could pull a few shots at home for myself and my family. I've worked in hospitality for over 10 years, and this is the kind of service that truly stands out. It's the definition of going above and beyond to make a guest feel welcome and cared for. What really stuck with me was that after I tried the espresso, he came back and asked, "How was the finish on that shot for you?" It wasn't a casual question he genuinely wanted feedback and wanted to know if the coffee delivered what I was looking for. When I told him it was exactly right, he seemed just as excited as I was. Coffee can sometimes feel intimidating, especially when you're trying to learn more about different roasts, origins, and flavor profiles. Chromatic does an incredible job of making that experience approachable, personal, and enjoyable. They aren't just serving coffee they're creating meaningful experiences and tailoring them to each individual customer. This level of hospitality is rare, and it's why I'll continue coming back. Highly recommended.

There's plenty of room to sit and stay awhile, and I love that they provide puzzles, coloring pages, and books to borrow while you enjoy your coffee. Such a wonderful community space and a place I always look forward to visiting.

Parking can be tricky, but, luckily, we snagged a spot right in front of the doors. Walking in, every table was filled with people working, talking, and hanging out. The staff were busy yet friendly and welcoming. I ordered a Honey Black Sesame Latte with Oat Milk and my partner got a drip coffee. Our order came out in less than 10 minutes, even though there were many orders ahead of ours. I found the digital system to be interesting to watch while I waited for our drinks. My latte was very tasty and balanced. My partner's drip coffee was okay, nothing to write home about. Overall, nice coffee shop experience. Not sure if I would go out of my way to try it again, but it is worth it if you're in the area!

They had some Fanime specials for the con (katsu and egg salad sandwiches, spam musubi), seasonal drinks, of course coffees and teas, and non caffeinated drinks, as well as some food too (heated up pastries, both sweet and savory). There's a restroom with a code and a couple seats and tables with outlets to charge your devices. Service was welcoming and efficient especially after the crowds started to pick up. I got the: 1) Egg Salad Sando: -You can tell these were handmade in store. They had cute washi tape to hold the packaging together. -Solid egg salad sandwich. Slightly sweet white bread and generous amount of egg salad inside the sandwich. Creamy mayo taste that isn't too sour or tart, lots of egg in it. Perfect for an anime con next door. 2) Cappuccino: -I got this no sugar and sugar free and it came out with some pretty latte art. I thought it was mostly ok and boyfriend thought so too, but after several sips and when it was too late since we really had to get to the con, it just became too disgustingly sweet for him and he had to throw it away. 3) Yuzu Fresh Fruit Sparkler: -Yuzu puree with sparkling soda water. -Refreshing and not bad, but even after mixing this was a bit sweeter than what I would have liked and again, in our rush to leave, we couldn't really get this adjusted. I ended up pouring most of it in a water bottle to enjoy later and put in my bag. But ended up not finishing it in the end. Maybe next year I'll try again or just stick to the food stuffs.
