The kids got the cinnamon rolls and devoured them before I had a chance to take my daddy tax. So that tells you how much they liked the cinnamon rolls. My wife got a bagel breakfast sandwich with egg, cheese, and spinach, and really enjoyed it. The coffee was tasty and really hit the spot. The staff was really friendly and always smiling. What really stood out was the patrons. I saw college students, construction workers, and people in suits all coming in here. Some greeted the staff, offering a clue that they were likely regulars. To me, that's a great sign of a solid establishment. If there are people from all walks of life coming in here regularly to get their breakfast fix, you've got to be doing something right. read more

First time here, the location gave a nice local vibe and I was really looking forward to trying this place out. I was hoping to add this place to my rotation of local breakfast hangout spots that I patronize. In the dining room, they were streaming some pulsating hyperpop music laden with heavy explicit lyrics. Totally inappropriate. Not the type of vibe I'm looking for at 7:30 in the morning. Ordered the sausage breakfast burrito. The burrito was heavy on the breakfast potatoes, it took up more than half of the burrito. Unfortunately, the potatoes were all undercooked which made them CRUNCHY and unbearably BLAND. The amount of thin breakfast sausage slices inside was small relative to the entirety of the burrito. The scrambled eggs with cheese inside were very good! It came with a small cup of salsa which was excellent, unfortunately the cup was only half filled. It was not nearly enough as the burrito was so bland because of the large amount of undercooked potatoes. I could have easily used two or three cups of salsa to give it taste. I'll be willing to give them a second chance in a few weeks, I'm curious to see if my experience will be better as I am hoping that today was just an aberration. read more

Ordered via food delivery service. Breakfast burrito with bacon, requested no potatoes, as I am not allowed to consume it at this time. Burrito had lots of potatoes which I had to remove and hardly any bacon. Basically used the potatoes to stuff the burrito. Also had a Chai latte. Was good, but most of the cup was the foam, so only just under 3/4 of the drink was actual liquid. My personal experience was pretty mediocre, which saddens me as this seems to be a mom and pop establishment. I hope others have a better experience than I do. read more

La Cereza Cafe & Bakery is such a sweet, local family favorite kind of spot. I grabbed a blueberry muffin to go, but the café was full and had such a warm, inviting feel. The coffee looks strong and amazing, so I know I'll definitely be back to try more. The staff could not be nicer. Please support local. read more

Stumbled upon this lovely little cafe while in Thousand Oaks for an early morning girls' day, and wow what a find! Nestled right next to Tarantula Brewery and across the street from Basta on T.O. BLVD you can't miss this spot. From the moment we walked in, the vibes were absolutely immaculate. The owner was so kind and instantly made us feel like family. Within five minutes of chatting with her about life, family, prioritizing wellness, and the importance of community, I knew this was going to be a regular stop for me. While I love good food, something I love even more is support good people. They have coffee, teas, speciality drinks, smoothies and then the food ranges from muffins, bagels to burritos and breakfast sandwiches. A large menu for a cozy place. I had the best smoothie I've had in a long time here, it was a mix of raspberry and dragonfruit with a mango juice base. So refreshing, vibrant, and naturally sweet. I'd come back alone just for this sip. Definitely their smoothies are a 10/10. read more

I went here for matcha and it was really good but honestly pretty expensive for a corner shop. I will probably go again because good matcha is hard to find but the price was a bit much. read more

Overall I like this place but there was mold on the syrup. As a restauran This is something they should be checking every single day and is not acceptable. Also the cashier started talking with friends who are eating here and totally forgot about our order and 15 minutes later I asked him where our pre-made dessert is and he ran to the back to go get it read more

Dined on 12/25/25! (Open on Xmas!) Loved dining here, the staff is soooo sweet - family owned. On xmas the drinks were half off which was really nice too. Typically I do not like all the drinks at coffee shops with flavors as they tend to be too sweet but I enjoyed every drink!!! So good. Ordered eggs benedict and a BLT - both delicious and happy they were open. :) read more

Food was amazing! Are so fast forgot to take pics but had the El Cubano and coffee cake and blueberry cake! Coffee is a good strong not over powering just perfect! Owners Manuel & Señora Mayra were lovely read more

They're one of the few coffee shops in the area that serve actual food that isn't pre frozen. I got the egg and cheese croissant and it was so nice to actually get a good portion of egg instead of mainly bread. It was delicious! The coffee was very good too. Talking to Manuel, who is the son of the owners, I found out it's both family owned and family operated. Now that we know about it, we will definitely be back! Highly recommend! read more

Meeting a friend for brunch. Wanted something new in TO (new for me anyway). La Cereza is a small cafe with ample free parking both in front and behind the cafe. Order at the counter and they bring your order out to you. Very small on the inside - only a few tables. We chose to sit at one of the tables on the patio. A limited breakfast menu. I went with a breakfast burrito and coffee. Brought out in a plastic bowl and plastic silverware. Very informal. It was my first breakfast burrito so I can honestly say it was the best breakfast burrito I have ever had! It was also absolutely delish. Very good coffee as well. Family owned and operated - got to meet the owner - very friendly. read more

Excellent customer service and outside seating were so relaxing. Café latte was superb. The fantastic location and parking were perfect.

I love this place. Their coffee is outstanding. I've had their breakfast sandwich twice and now have specific cravings for it. The employees are lovely and friendly.

Super nice people, the seasonal blush matcha was so good. A cute little place, definitely becoming a regular forsuree

La Cereza Cafe & Bakery is located in Thousand Oaks, on Thousand Oaks Blvd & Parker Ave. You will see the hanging sign for La Cereza on the corner, not on the building. If you know where Tarantula Hill Brewing Co is, they are in the next building at the lot next to them. It has its own parking lot & street parking. Indoor & Outdoor seating is available. This Family Owned & Operated Biz opened up about 4 months ago. I was helped by Mayra this morning. She was nice, very informative, knowledgeable & mentioned some of their offerings. Breakfast & Lunch Sandwiches are made to order. I was glad to know they also serve Breakfast Burritos & Chilaquiles. I definitely need to try those next time! They have a pastry case that I was eyeing, but wasn't sure what to get. Gives me an excuse to come back. In the display case I saw different bagel options, croissants, cakes & muffins in the case. They offer coffee, tea, hot chocolate and some Grab & Go Drinks available for purchase. I got a simple Latte (extra $.95 charge for Oat Milk & for a pump of SFV), which I probably didn't need. Good temp & smooth foam on top. Since it was National Croissant Day, I had to order a Breakfast Sandwich Croissant. I got the Egg, Spinach & Cheese Croissant. (Croissant was an extra $1.50 charge btw). Croissants for sandwiches seemed ready made, but Sandwiches are Made to Order. The sandwich was warm & I devoured it. It was good, esp w/ that melted Pepper Jack Cheese. read more

I had previously given this bakery a low rating because I only tried their coffee cake. However, the owner noticed that I wasn't enjoying it. She wanted me to be satisfied, so she ordered a double chocolate muffin for me to ensure my happiness. I must say that the exceptional service I received during our interaction, making sure I left as a satisfied customer, is a reason to give this place a 10 and definitely recommend it. read more

Okay I love a family business and I want to support but I had a mixed bag experience and may have to give them another try. The total tab was a shade high. Will leave it at that. The pastry tasted like onion. The sweet pastry. Now they gave me a sub but that also had the onion thing. They were super sweet though and the shop is cute. With minor improvements they could be better but I kinda had an average experience. read more

My husband ordered eggs and potties. We asked if they had decaf coffee. The counter person said "yes". When I questioned her more because I saw "pour over" on the menu she said they made the decaf with espresso. We explicitly did not want that so we cancelled the coffee. My husband's bill for scrambled eggs , fried potatoes, and side fruit salad that came with the plate was over $17.00. No toast, no coffee. The eggs tasted like the instant ones you get at the Quality Inn breakfasts. The pastries in the display case did not look fresh. I would definitely not recommend this place. We usually go to Eggs and Things in T.O. and will be returning there. read more

Cute little family bakery and coffee shop. Very local spot! They are so sweet here. The coffee itself was amazing. 10/10 for a vanilla iced latte. I got the small which came in this cute cup but actually is a lot bigger than it looks. Only thing to note is that it is a bit pricey but definitely worth it. Easy to park in lot and was quick! Right off the 101. read more

Not sure why this place is rated so high, food is average. I can cook the food in my house better. Also wait time is ~30 min for a bagel and coffee. Not recommend. read more

This was my first time going into the bakery. First, I was very surprised of the different varieties of food they had for breakfast. I ordered a breakfast burrito and I was very disappointed. First, it was very bland, no flavor at all. Second, my burrito was mainly potatoes and some of the potatoes were not cooked thoroughly. It had very little egg and what it looked like two slices of ham. As I finish paying, I noticed they had some yummy baked goods. I decided to purchase a concha and was disappointed. It was soft but the flavor was not like the original flavor of a concha. I also purchased a latte, and I will say it was delicious. I will probably go back for their coffee but not the food. read more

Amazing breakfast burrito full of flavor, and the red salsa they offer is the cherry on top to satisfy anyone's appetite. The staff is extremely welcoming and treat customers like family, it's hard to find a family owned coffee shop this good not only in coffee but as well as the food. read more

The baked goods are amazing Even the muffins which look like normal muffins taste amazing. The texture and taste is very different from others I had a cherry popover one day Omg is all I can say Hamantash was perfect. Don't let looks deceive you. It looks like any other Hamantash from another bakery, but it tasted so much better than I've ever had. The owner and her son are amazing. They are so accommodating and they want you to be happy. I hope everybody tries this place. read more

We wanted so much to love this place as our town is missing a quality bakery and cafe. The breakfast burrito was the best option that we tried, especially the salsa, however, it's on the smaller side. The paninis were not pressed or toasted; perhaps that's on us for having this expectation, but the term panini usually implies a pressed sandwich with gooey cheese. The prices are very fair and affordable. Service was welcoming and gracious. With time and some tweaking, this could be a great regular spot for us. We'll definitely come back to give it another try, and we'll ask for some modifications that are to our liking. We definitely want to support this budding family business. read more

I love this little cafe on Thousand Oaks Blvd! It's such a gem with it's bright, airy white walls and friendly smiles. If Thousand Oaks were a cafe, this is what it would look like because it's a family affair, with mom and dad owning the place and Manuel, college student and his infant brother winning over the customers. You feel so welcome and home when you are here. The Cruz family would be just enough. But it's the baked goods that take it over the top. The muffins are soft inside, cake like. The cookies bring up a close second, so chewy and delicious. Everything is delicious without being full of sugar and overly sweet. Chase your treats with a cup of coffee, tea, latte, or hot chocolate. Expect to pay about $9 for muffin + hot chocolate. They offer breakfast and lunch which includes things like breakfast burritos and sandwich wraps. The menu is small, but mighty. What are you waiting for? Head off for a breakfast burrito or a wrap and bring two friends with you! read more

My absolute favorite café! This family-owned gem never disappoints. The coffee is consistently amazing and their prices are always reasonable. I'm really not a coffee person but this place changes that whole aspect. Their other drinks as well are crafted to perfection, and the food and pastries are always fresh and flavorful. What I love most is their flexibility, they always accommodate me, even at the last minute. The café is impeccably clean, with a welcoming and cozy seating area that makes it perfect for relaxing, doing work or catching up with friends. The ambiance is unmatched, making it my go-to spot. Highly recommend to anyone looking for quality coffee, delicious bites, and a warm, inviting atmosphere! read more
