Banana cloud latte was delicious, you can taste the banana, the cinnamon, and the espresso too! And the cups are very pretty, I will be keeping them and I will be visiting again very soon. The ambience and aesthetic of the place is also very nice. read more

Came on a Thursday afternoon, and I got the last parking --- thank goodness! La La Land is a beautiful cafe, that serves both coffee and tea drinks. It was made popular on social media thanks to thee Keith Lee --- who said that his favorite "matcha" drink comes from this spot; of course I had to try HIS order. I ordered a medium Keith Lee Latte (yes, that's the real name of the drink) for $7.80. The wait took about 10 minutes which I didn't mind, as this place is still in its "viral age". After I got the drink, I immediately went to the car, snapped the photo, and sipped. AMAZING. This drink was smooth, creamy (enough), sweet (enough), and with enough matcha powder without it getting bitter. I thoroughly enjoyed the Keith Lee Latte, and was pleasantly surprised. If you're ever in the area, try to visit --- and if you do, choose weekdays over weekends. It'll save you the headache and the long lines! read more

Everyone was so nice! They have a happy upbeat yellow aesthetic. The cafe is clean and inviting. The menu is situated above the cashier area and I kinda wished they had printed menus. So that a customer could get a game plan on what they are going to order. Might help cut down on the time when ordering. I got Keith Lee matcha drink and my daughter got the strawberry matcha drink. I decided to also get a "sprinkle cake", it was tasty but very very sweet. Both drinks were good, not amazing but better than other competitors. I might have been expecting to be amazed since the location on Congress always has a line up to two blocks long. All in all it was a nice experience and we liked that we were able to say we visited it. If I was in the area and there was not a line I might visit again and try some other things on the menu. read more

Went to La La Land on their soft opening days. The wait was excruciating but thats as expected with 50% off all drinks. Their matchas oreo are pretty tasty. I also had egg sausage sandwich that was a bit burned but tasted fine. Staffs are nice and they have this thing where they say "Love you" upon customers leaving - which I found odd but its part of their whole business branding it seems. Parking is hard since they are at an intersection with not a lot of parking. Not sure if I would go out of my way to go here again, maybe on the weekend. read more

Delicious coffee, aesthetic branding and friendly baristas make La La Land my new favorite coffee shop. The menu is full of options from coffee to matcha and they each sound as amazing as the last. I struggled to pick but the enthusiastic baristas suggested I go for the Tiramisu Latte and that was the correct choice for me today. The latte was very light on the ice so I could fully taste the delicious espresso and oat milk combination. The cold foam and lady finger topping was just the touch of sweetness and whimsy every drink needs. Fantastic craftsmanship, customer service and happy yellow cup sleeves that remind you to be kind. I love you too La La Land! read more

As a huge fan of the original South Congress location, I had to check out the new spot on Burnet Road, and it completely delivers. They've brought that same stunning, Parisian-inspired decor and top-tier service, but this time with a super convenient drive-through. While the indoor seating is on the smaller side, the ample outdoor patio is perfect for hanging out. The real star of my visit, though, was the limited-edition iced PSG espresso latte; it is absolutely amazing. For anyone wondering, PSG stands for Paris Saint-Germain, a nod to the legendary French football club, and the drink definitely lives up to the name. It's also available in a matcha topping version too. Note: they've got several other locations like Dallas, San Antonio (love that one too), Houston, and more. read more

La Land has officially opened on Burnet Road, and I had been watching with anticipation for weeks as the new coffee shop was being built. The bright yellow building is impossible to miss, standing squarely on the corner of 45th Street and Burnet Road. There's something about the color yellow that instantly evokes happiness, and La La Land embraces that feeling from the moment you arrive. As soon as I walked through the doors, I was greeted by an atmosphere filled with brightness, joy, and positivity. The cheerful décor creates a space that feels both welcoming and uplifting. Michelle, who was handing out orders, added to the experience by sharing positive affirmations with guests...a thoughtful touch I had never encountered in a coffee shop before. It was refreshing and perfectly aligned with the café's upbeat personality. Deciding what to order on my first visit proved to be challenging. After browsing the menu, I settled on a PSG Latte, a limited-time offering, along with two enormous chocolate chip cookies...one for the hubs and one for my visiting brother-in-law (though I secretly hoped they might share). Choosing the PSG Latte (espresso topped with cloud, salt and a mini croissant) turned out to be the perfect decision. Describing it as delicious is such an understatement...ice-cold, flavorful, and incredibly smooth with the mini croissant as a bonus. In fact, I briefly considered ordering a second one before my sensible side kicked in. The service was exceptional from beginning to end. My barista patiently explained the menu, pointed out the most popular lattes, and made me feel like I was the only customer in the shop. La La Land has clearly mastered customer service as an art form. La La Land is not only a movie anymore. Smile. There's an old saying that people may forget what you said, but they'll remember how you made them feel. That sentiment perfectly captures my experience here. Throughout my visit, I felt welcomed, appreciated, and genuinely happy. Pro tip: Parking is limited, so try to avoid peak hours. Also, they have a drive through, which is a little tricky to navigate. read more

First time at this Austin hot spot on Sunday morning. Ordered a (hot) latte and an almond croissant. $14+ with a $1.00 tip which I added to my counter order. First, the good. The venue is bright, clean, and although simply decorated, had a welcoming feel good vibe - must be all the pastel-like yellow. The women that took my order was friendly and efficient. The east to read electronic menu had great variety in terms of food, coffee, and other beverages. Packing was simple (and yellow, of course) but nicely done. And, the latte was tasty (good, nothing wow, however). The croissant was fresh, nicely flaky, and had a flavorful almond paste in the middle. Then, the not so good. The large latte seemed smallish and the croissant was quite small (perhaps tiny for a croissant). Alas, the price was high for what was provided to me foodwise and drinkwise. Will I go back. Yes. Why? Pleasant atmosphere and there were things on the menu I would like to try. Would I count on this place to fill me up at a reasonable price? ... to be continued. And the terrible? Parking. Pretty much non-existent unless I missed the sign for additional parking. Maybe 6-8 spaces? If there is a valet he/she wasn't around on my arrival. And, valet for picking up coffee and a pastry. Hmm. read more

I stopped through for their soft opening, which meant drinks were 50% off! Their menu was a little confusing, as they only show one price but there's 3 sizes. Obviously I'm going to get large for 50% off! I got the matcha squared latte. Nice and creamy, but I do wish it was colder. I also got the avocado toast, strawberry toast, and almond croissant. The toasts were pretty filling, though I felt the bread was a little tough. I enjoyed both and the pastry I had later. It wasn't a fresh unfortunately by the time I got to eat it. The place is small, which is kind of surprising knowing the hype of this shop. There was a line but they tried to move it through quickly. Parking is small though so expect parking in the neighborhood. I thought the ordering method was a little inefficient. They got my name through the app (needed to sign up for the promo) but then I had to wait to the side to listen for my name which was a bit difficult given the music, noise, and lack of mic from the staff. My drink came out first but it took another 15-20 for the toast. Luckily I was able to grab a table inside but I had to leave my items unattended to make sure I could hear my food order. read more

Stopped by for their soft opening because I was ecstatic to see another coffee shop open up in my neighborhood. Waited a while in line, but it was an efficient line. Got the tiramisu matcha, good balance of sweetness to the matcha. Overall, great shop, cute vibes. read more

Been looking for a matcha spot that's not overhyped and this place doesn't disappoint! My fav was Keith Lee Matcha (if you want strong matcha scent). This is their collab with Keith Lee made with double ceremonial matcha. There's a whole strawberry on top, so I thought it'd have some strawberry flavor going on, but it's actually just for looks! So good! The Eispenner was my second fave, super creamy! I wasn't a big fan of the Cloud 9 Matcha Latte. The strawberry foam kind of overpowered the matcha flavor. We placed our order ahead and just walked in for pickup, super quick. Staff was so sweet too, the girl helping us even asked if she pronounced my name right. Definitely giving this place a try if you're a matcha lover! read more

Visited La La Land for the first time during soft opening. There was a line out the door but that's to be expected since drinks were 50% off. For that price, it was worth waiting. I ordered their matcha squared latte which has double shots of matcha. Definitely recommend for Matcha lovers. Matcha tasted good and the drink creamy. I also tried their Truffle Burrata Toast and their Strawberry Toast. The Burrata Toast was a savory avocado toast with a small kick from the chilis. It was my first time trying with chili oil and thought the combo was good. I would've preferred more herbs like cilantro (instead of using it as a garnish) to help add some bright flavors to the toast. It's still a nice light snack. The strawberry toast was refreshing and lightly sweet with the honey. The store itself is very cute. Definitely an Instagrammable spot with the yellow truck outside the yellow store. The staff were really friendly and energetic. Appreciate them helping to move the line as quick as they could. read more

I was so excited to see La La Land open a new location that's much closer to me! As a matcha lover, I had to order the Strawberry Cloud Matcha, and it definitely lived up to the hype. It was so delicious--perfectly balanced, refreshing, and one of my new favorites. The team was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The only thing to keep in mind is that parking is pretty limited. Also, don't make the mistake of parking across the street at the bakery--they don't allow it. Overall, I'm so happy to have a La La Land closer to home and can't wait to come back for another matcha! read more

Went to the soft opening and everything went great. There was a line, but to be expected. There is barely any parking, so plan on parking in the neighboring streets. There's limited indoor seating, but a nice patio. read more

Tiramisu, mango green tea, and banana cloud matcha latte were the drinks we got during the soft opening! All drinks are 50% off. There is limited parking around the back but you can find some street parking. There was a line outside on this hot day, but it moved relatively quick. There are seats outside and inside. Staff is friendly. They pointed us toward the parking area and handed out menus to look at while waiting in line. There's a drive thru. Tiramisu was bitter. Not the sweet taste I was expecting, but my coffee-loving husband really enjoyed it. Mango green tea is good-you can taste the tea. Not too sweet as well. I've had the banana cloud latte before and really enjoyed it but this time, they ran out of whole milk so it tasted a bit different. But because I know it tastes better with whole milk, I still rate this 5 stars. The grand opening is. 06/20, with 50% off drinks AND toasts. I have yet to try their snacks so maybe I'll do that next time. They also sell cute la la land merch. Cute shop but I prefer the SoCo location because it's more spacious and closer to where I live. read more

FINALLY Barely a noticeable line today, pretty sure it is a timing issue~ lots of hustle & bustle going on behind the counter, my drink was ready in less then 10 min. A nice observation is they have a person standing where the prepared drinks appear & he very loudly announcing your name & drink so there isn't a crowd waiting to get thru to get your drink Ordered the Lala Latte iced, tastes nice a bit sweet which I like plus I asked for whole milk they usually make it with no fat also offer in matcha opposed to espresso which is my preference Clearly this will be a neighborhood destination as parking IS HORRID!! one way in~one way out and maybe 4/5 sppaces total and if your on 35th headed towards Mopac you need to make a left turn all the time hoping the drivers waiting at the stoplight take pity on you to allow you to cross infront of them..... For sure it was worth stoppng in, and I wpuld stop again depending on yhe line & traffic conditions read more

First off, the positive things: the branding of bright, cheerful yellow makes you feel like you're definitely on vacation mode, and the staff there are cheerful too. However, when we tried to use their app for the Buy 2 get 50% off deal, the app had a backend error and we could not use it. The line wasn't bad on a week day, but for my strawberry cloud matcha latte I wasn't that impressed. Overall, I wouldn't come here as my first option if I crave matcha, but maybe the other drinks are better. My friend really enjoyed their banana coffee-based latte though! read more

Needed to see what the hype was all about and was not disappointed. Had the iced Banana Cloud Latte and it was delicious! The banana flavor with the cinnamon - amazing! In order to really know if this is a serious coffee spot, I also had a regular coffee with a splash of heavy cream. It was great - really hit the spot. I'll be back! read more

La La Land - Banana cloud latte - Don't miss out! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Austin, Texas

I'll split this up into parts: 1. What I actually got and what I thought 2. The location 3. something else that isn't their fault but matters So: 1. I got a matcha lemonade and it was excellent. Very different, not sweet and unique. The cup and straw are honestly not a throw away - very sturdy and super cute touch with the heart shaped straw that I am keeping. Very refreshing drink on a hot day, and I am glad it was because... 2. The location is terrible. There is practically no parking so I had to park down the street and it was hot, so the cold lemonade helped. And also to the lady in the white Rivian who drove through the parking lot going the wrong way? not cool. Which takes me to the 3rd thing... 3. The customers. Now, they can't help this but you should know that space is at a premium and apparently courtesy and kindness among some customers is, too. Everyone is jockeying for position, entitled drivers of high end cars don't have any consideration in the parking lot and it doesn't end there. Seriously it's so ironic considering what this place is known for, which is love and peace and all that. The pickleball outfit wearing, BMW driving crowd wants a word, I guess. Still, I'll go back. I'd recommend going on a less busy weekday or something to avoid the stroller mafia. read more

Not a place to stop for coffee on your way to work. There are only a handful of parking spots, some of which are so tiny it's hard to park in. I saw a large suburban block in a small SUV. In addition, there's no drive through even though I was told there was one. The inside is open air concept making it extremely hot. You can't enjoy yourself as there's flies swarming everywhere. It takes longer for them to warm up a croissant than to make a latte. Speaking of the late, the small size is the size of my thumb. read more

I love this coffee place super yummy. Unfortunately there was a large black hair in my avocado toast today. Well, I do love the avocado toast and it is quite yummy. The hair on the side was in fact not as yummy. I only find hair delicious unless you're super sexy, and I fear the barista was not super sexy. They also never wear hairnets so be aware of your food having hair still good though pissed I got hair. I'm going to give them my hair as pay back read more

Surprisingly super quick service and friendly staff. I got the banana matcha cloud and it was over $8 and it wasn't too sweet- all the flavors were very balanced. Worth it imo read more

The pastries and drinks are really good at this cafe. I especially enjoyed their matcha.
