    This is the place for pictures and very sweet drinks! The coffee itself is great but I wish more coffee shops offered sugar free alternatives. It's funny because there's so many milk alternatives but no other dietary restrictions. Service was à la good as can be considering it was extremely crowded and loud. Kids had a blast and that's all that matters.

    I got the Matcha Tiramisu Latte from here and it was pretty good! What I liked the most was the cream top which was soft and sweet. The matcha itself was also pretty good. Good matcha volume and the blend used wasn't dry. I also enjoyed the little lady finger on top which was a nice little snack. Overall, solid matcha. I came here on my birthday since you can get a free drink! You need to download the app and set your birthdate to redeem. This is only redeemable on your actual birthday and you are given an $8 credit and can only choose from their specialty drinks. The cafe itself is also pretty and clean with nice indoor and outdoor seating. I also enjoyed witnessing the workplace culture. The manager seemed to be lively and enthusiastic and introduced new recruits happily. It felt like a positive and uplifting atmosphere.

    La La Land is more than just an Instagram coffee shop. The space is bright, clean, and has a simple vibe that makes you want to stay awhile. The merch is actually nice too, especially the mugs and hats. We tried the Matcha Cloud and the Spanish Latte, both topped with a mini croissant. They looked great and tasted even better. The matcha was smooth and not overly sweet, while the Spanish Latte had a rich coffee flavor without being too heavy. Be prepared for a long line, especially during peak hours, but it moved faster than expected. The staff stayed friendly and efficient even with the crowd. If you're in the area, it's definitely worth checking out. I'd happily come back.

    I finally gave in to the hype. When we walked by, the line was huge--probably around 3:30 or 4:00 in the afternoon. We actually debated whether waiting that long for coffee was worth it, but since La La Land Kind Cafe is all over social media, we figured we had to experience it at least once. While waiting, I did what I always do... I bought things I definitely didn't need. I ended up leaving with a mug, an Espresso Martini candle, a Banana Cloud latte, and the Paris Saint-Germain drink. By the time I checked out, I'd spent about $83. The café itself is beautiful. It's bright, clean, stylish, and exactly what you'd expect from a place that's become so popular online. The staff was also friendly. Unfortunately, this is where the experience lost a couple of stars. I ordered the Paris Saint-Germain with espresso, but it came with ceremonial matcha instead. My sister ordered the Banana Cloud with coffee, and hers also came with matcha. Out of the three drinks our group ordered, two were made incorrectly. Mistakes happen, but getting two out of three drinks wrong is disappointing, especially after waiting in such a long line. The drinks themselves were good. I honestly have no complaints about the quality. But are they worth waiting 30 minutes in line, plus another 10 minutes for your order? For me... not really. I understand why people want to visit. If you're visiting Los Angeles or spending the day at The Grove, I'd still recommend stopping by once. The café is beautiful, the branding is fun, and it's one of those places that's part of the experience. Grab your coffee, take a few pictures, enjoy the atmosphere, and you'll probably have a good time. But as someone who lives in Los Angeles, I don't see myself waiting in that line again. Once was enough. (3/5) -- Great concept, beautiful café, friendly service, but the long wait and multiple order mistakes kept the experience from living up to the hype.

    Finally got around to trying LaLa Land and it did not disappoint. I visited on a Monday around 10am and the line moved pretty quickly. I ordered the banana cloud latte and it was soooo tasty! You could definitely taste the banana flavor. The strawberry cloud latte was also really good and had a hint of strawberry flavor. The heart shaped straws were such a cute touch and went perfectly with the aesthetic of the place. After ordering, we went outside to wait for our drinks and only waited about 10 minutes. When the barista was handing out orders, she would say "love you" to the customers, which I thought was such a cute little detail. Everyone was super friendly and nice. I'll definitely be coming back to try more of their matcha drinks!

    Drinks are rich in taste and consistency, not watered down. Service was fast and workers are nice despite the crowd and long line. Theres plenty of seats outside and inside but you will be surrounded by hoards of people. This place is not bad and would recommend to try at least once if the line isn't too long.

    Wendy X.

    Friendly service and a welcoming atmosphere, but I think the drinks are overhyped. The flavors are good, but the texture feels watered down, so they don't have the rich, satisfying consistency I was expecting. Overall, it wasn't bad, but I'd rather make the drive to Stagger or One Escape in K-Town for drinks that have both better flavor and texture.

    Finally got to check out Lalaland at The Grove. This spot is known for long lines, so I went on a Friday around 6pm. From ordering to getting my drink took about 20 minutes, which wasn't too bad. I ordered a large Matcha Squared Latte with less sweetness and oat milk (extra charge). I noticed they still added a couple pumps of syrup, but overall the drink wasn't too sweet and had a nice creamy top. The matcha itself was decent, but not as smooth as some of the top tier spots. I'm guessing it's because they prep things ahead instead of whisking each drink fresh. Overall it was good, but I wouldn't wait more than 20 minutes for it. If anything, I'd just order online next time to skip the line.

    Stopped by after grabbing lunch from the Farmer's Market across the street to have a sweet treat on the way home. A good latte always cushions the blow of LA Traffic ya know? It was crowded and the line ran out the door but it moved at a steady pace and after 10min we placed our orders. It took maybe another 10min till we got our drinks. The menu is fairly simple and their most popular drinks are their Matchas! I'm personally not a fan of banana (it's a texture thing), but they claim the Banana Matcha is one of their top sellers! The Strawberry Chai really caught my interest and I enjoyed the flavor combination of the sweet strawberry with the warm chai notes! Only bummer was their French Toast Latte. We were expecting a lot more flavor, but it was just a watery mess. Overall, it was fun to see what all the hype was about, but at $8 starting for a small cup, I'm just not sure it was worth it.

    Stopped by the grove and saw that La La land was there, I've seen it all over my TikTok so I was like let me give this a try! The line kinda scared me because it was a bit long buttttt it was moving by fast and the wait wasn't that long either! I got a French toast matcha latte and I'm not sure if they make it with ceremonial but it was good! Matcha wasn't that strong but it was still good. My bf got a banana coffee latte and that was good as well- it tasted like artificial banana haha. Ambience and the inside was clean and cute

    Dirty floor

    There are some yummy options here; however, I am deeply disappointed. When you place an order, expect to wait a while for both ordering and picking it up. I expected some wait time due to the long line and the number of people waiting for their orders, but I didn't anticipate waiting 50 minutes. This location at The Grove is pretty noisy, but that's to be expected given the busy setting. The staff seems intense, which I believe is due to being short-staffed. When placing my order, the area was quite dirty and disorganized. If you had a question, the staff would push you along and quickly shift their attention elsewhere instead of helping the customer. When picking up my order, it took even longer because the drink I was given was incorrect. It took at least 10 minutes to get someone's attention just to fix it. The workers avoid making eye contact--possibly because they don't want to be compelled to help and would rather someone else handle the issue.

    This is how they resolve your problem! A generic message! Thieves!

    Never again! Also I don't know what's the hype for this place and the long lines! Here is a tip! Don't waste time or money! It's not worth it! Initially when I saw it, i thought it was boba place! So my husband and I saw the line and though let's walk around and come back maybe line will die down! So as we're walking, there was chase stand and we got two gift cards for here each $10. So we're like I guess will go back. We got the French toast latte and chai latte and both were not good! Too pricy for no reason Total for both came to 14.85 and I had $20 worth of gift cards. So I had $5.15. My friend was behind us and I said she can use the gift card. He gave me the empty card and I don't know where that other gift card went She couldn't use it and I didn't get it back. So they just kept the gift card. He was not able to look up the transaction even though I had the receipt nor give me a replacement. It literally happened that time but he did nothing about it This isn't acceptable! Bad drinks and they didn't give my gift card back, plus long lines and bad customer service! Take your business elsewhere! You contact them regarding this issue and nobody bothers to respond! Never again

It has a cozy, tucked-away feel with plenty of seating both inside and outside, making it a great place to relax with a coffee. We ordered a mocha and a latte, and both were solid.

This place is so cute that I've driven by it a million times thinking it was a fancy restaurant - not a cute hidden gem coffee shop! This particular shop is incredibly popular and always full but if you're lucky you'll get a seat in their adorable little outdoor area. They have some belly up counter style seats along the sidewalk and also a side garden with a few tables & chairs, plus some cute cushions on the steps for ground seating. Once again, I'm obsessed with the aesthetics at a Verve location. They really seem to focus on rustic wood vibes inside and incorporating nature in a fun way. I always love their flash nitro cold brew here. It's so smooth and refreshing! I also tried their matcha and loved it. Plus their chocolate chip sea salt cookie was money. I'm sure I'll be back to Verve in WeHo! Really enjoyed it yesterday.

The overall cafe is pretty small but it's a got a cool aesthetic. Has a nice seating area around the outside with shade. Do expect to wait in line and parking can be a challenge as most spots in the area are usually taken as it's street parking. Went on a Saturday afternoon and waited about 25 minutes. I don't think I would wait anymore than that for this place but it's worth checking out. The staff are very kind too.

Located at…read morethe busy intersection of Santa Monica Boulevard and Fairfax in West Hollywood; you won't be disappointed. It's a small space with a few tables inside with multiple large sliding glass doors that open onto the intersection on one side and a courtyard on the other side. It gives the place a nice urban feel with plenty of foot traffic outside and people watching. You order from one of the two kiosks outside of the kitchen. You select from the menu, make your payment, and assigned a number to notify you when your order is ready. They send messages to you via text. I was with a friend mid-afternoon on a Saturday. There was just a couple of people inside when we arrived. The evenings are usually busier with several people inside and on the outdoor courtyard which has a few tables. We both ordered cheesecake and we loved them. Very fresh, flavorful, and creamy in texture. I had the Oreo Cheesecake and my friend had the Mocha Cheesecake. My friend also had a Fusion Mocha Shake which he said tasted great with the right amount of mocha flavoring for his taste. We spoke to the owner/baker after we ate to compliment his desserts. I asked how business was and he said unfortunately slow. He mentioned how restaurants in general were having a hard time in the current uncertain economy. It has nothing to do with his products. The desserts and treats are great. If you can, give this spot a try. And the prices are reasonable considering the quality of the desserts. There's a promotion for new customers. Whatever amount you spend on your first visit, you earn that amount in credits towards your next purchase. It's all automated through your phone number. Open everyday until midnight. There are complimentary board games to play while dining. Limited parking in the plaza or street parking. It's great to have a quality dessert café in my neighborhood.

It's a petit venue with comfy couch seating, chairs and cute table that you can connect. We did that since there were about 7 of us. You order from the two kiosks or off of your phone so remember that they do not take cash as payment. There's so many fun options on the menus from scrumptious desserts, hot and cold beverages like teas and coffees. I had to have an iced boba beverage. So yummy. Our server who may also be the owner was very nice. Quick service, like we received text messages that your order has been placed and it was brought to our table within minutes. Incredible and he was very cheerful. While conversations were happening I noticed a cool shelf and on the shelf were games! Fun board and card games that continued the our mini party! This place was open until 11pm so it cool to have a coffee shop that stays open late. I took public transportation but there is underground parking at the venue, there are tons of parking meters and parking in the residential area. This place is YUMMY!
