    Exterior + lines

    I wanted to see what all the hype was about. My friend I was with likes La La Land and since we were only 10 minutes away from this location, we decided to stop by. It was a Saturday and we knew there would be a long line, so we ordered ahead online, which I highly recommend especially if you're taking it to go. There's plenty of parking around this location and it was easy. There were two lines when we arrived; one for dine-in and one for takeout. The line for dine-in was much longer and I was grateful we ordered ahead. They had some technical issues that day which delayed some of the online orders. They didn't come out in order. My friend got hers first and I got mine 15 minutes after hers. She got a matcha and I got the banana latte. I'm not really big on banana-flavored drinks, but thought I would try their specialty drink. To my surprise, I really enjoyed it! I appreciate the real bananas in it. My friend let me try her matcha and I thought it was really good, too. Unfortunately, I didn't step inside the shop so I can't speak on the decor and ambiance, but would love to return when the hype dies down.

    Audrey asked for a review and she shall receive. Thank you Audrey for taking my order. She has gold star clips in her hair today 6/10/26 2:06 pm at the register. thanks girl All the lattes taste good. It's the viral la coffee shop, but in Arizona lol. It's good but it's not as good as coffee dose in Newport Beach!!!!! I wish Arizona had a coffee dose.

    Just be nice

    I love the indoor atmosphere, the friendly staff, and especially your specialty drinks. I tried the tiramisu iced matcha latte and it was excellent--very creamy and perfectly balanced without being too sweet. I love the merch corner it's a great addition to the space.

    First time checking out, La La Land on a Sunday the wait time was about 50 minutes for coffee! Tried the upside down latte 7.5/10 - very solid coffee very bold and strong notes of espresso. Caramel and vanilla flavors are present but if you like sweet coffee then recommend adding more syrup pumps or cold foam. Service was good. Worth another try.

    Service is great. The space is nice and bright, a great place to start your morning. The La La latte was one of the best lattes I've had. So good I needed to write this review for it.

    This place was so so cute! Loved the vibe and atmosphere. I ordered a banana matcha cloud drink and a ham and cheese croissant. The drink took about 15 mins and the croissant took a bit longer. The drink was delicious but the croissant tasted very dried.

    Cute little coffee shop with tasty drinks and food options as well. Their hazelnut toast with strawberry and banana was delicious along with their Lala latte

    Afternoon coffee - place was fairly crowded, mostly teenagers. There was a small line. The menu is a lot of speciality drinks and some food. I opted for Vanilla Latte. It was pretty good, a bit overly sweet for my taste. The service is fast and friendly. Note - the place is fairly loud. Didn't bother me, but perhaps not your jam. N*joy

    I did not realize there was another LaLaLand other than the one on N. Kierland, but I was glad I didn't habe to drive as far out to get here. When I arrived around 5:30 pm on a Tuesday, there was no line. My friend met up with me and we ordered the same thing: the Cloud 9 Matcha and the Queen Avo Toast. I was extra and also ordered a small Lululemon Chai Latte. It was okay. I did have to add a packet of stevia to get it a tad sweeter for my liking. We both enJOYed the avo toast. It was very filling especially with the first layer of cream cheese underneath the Avocado. I would have liked to have some balsamic drizzle on top! We both agreed the drinks were just okay. The Cloud 9 Matcha definitely didn't look like the menu picture. Ours barely looked like it had any of the strawberry cream. It wasn't very sweet, either. The Lululemon drink wasn't bad, but it just needed more sweetness imo. This was my first time here. I had seen it in L.A. when I was at The Grove with one of my friends over a year ago, but we didn't bother going since the line was ridiculous. There's not much to this place other than the charm and it's signature yellow cups and decor. It's safe to say the hype has died down at this location but I'm not sure about weekends. I'd imagine it gets packed and just be aware that the parking lot is TIGHT!! I could barely get out of Big Bertha because the person to my left park all funky and wayyy too close to the right side. I will say LaLaLand is one of those places that you should check out specifically for the hype, but it's not something I'd go out of my way for. I had to ask for more of the strawberry cream to put into our Matcha. The employee at the counter filled a cup about 1/3 of the way so my friend and I could share. Prices are above average in my opinion but like I said, it's all about the hype. =/

    La La Land never disappoints! While I was in town, I knew I had to try the birthday matcha. It was delicious! Next time, I would definitely add vanilla or another flavoring to the matcha. But, the mix of the whip cream and sprinkles with the matcha was perfectly sweet and such a good balance. Luckily, the to-go window online ordering opened back up, but I feel like ordering inside (even if there's a little line) seemed to be faster. The system at the window did not seem to be the most convenient and you could never hear if your name was called. The timing of the app saying your drink is ready was much faster than it actually being prepared. Despite that, the coffee and matcha are always delicious. It's definitely a favorite. La La Land is much more than a chic, aesthetically pleasing cafe. The pastries are delicious, the drinks are consistent and amazing, the workers are friendly!

    I've been to La La Land in LA before and it's always been a good time. The service is friendly and quick for having a line out the door. The ambiance is pretty chill, you can dress up or down and you'd fit right in. I ordered the Banana Cloud Matcha Latte and it was very yummy. The banana flavor in the foam tasted like real bananas rather than the artificial flavor! I also ordered Truffle Burrata Avo Toast and it was delicious! My cousin ordered the Hazelnut Toast and it was so good. Nutella, strawberries and bananas, you can't go wrong. We also got the Mango Passion Fruit cooler and it was so refreshing and tasty. I hope to be back soon!

    Matcha Squared

    Finally got to give this spot a try and it did not disappoint! I opted to use the mobile app, just because I had heard how busy it was in the previous weeks. I guess I forgot I was going on a Tuesday at 11am, but I was surprised to see there was no wait and my drink was ready ahead of the estimated pickup time! The staff are all so sweet, and I guess I had no idea that their schtick was that they say "love you" to customers because I was definitely shocked at first when I went to get my drink, but I thought it was really endearing and cute. I got the matcha squared and oh man, it was perfect. I wish I got the bigger size! I really love a strong and thick matcha and this was exactly it, the ratio was just right between bitter, earthy, sweet and creamy. The shop itself is very clean, and open, I like the location but I could see parking being an issue if it was busy for sure. The bathrooms were spic and span! I like all the seating and the grassy open areas too. I'll be back for sure.

    Got to try La La Land today and it definitely lived up to the hype! I've been on a banana coffee kick and the banana cloud latte with oatmilk was so delicious. We also got a blueberry muffin to try (gluten friendly) and it was huge! I was a little nervous stopping in on a Saturday around 12:30 but the line went fairly fast... I don't think we waited longer than 20 mins for the entire experience (waiting in line and getting the items). The staff were so friendly and I even called to ask about the wait and the girl was super helpful and influenced me to come to this location instead of the one at the kierland. I will definitely be back!

    Absolute Perfection! Hands Down the Best Coffee in Arizona!…read more My husband and I are avid flavored latte lovers, and wherever we travel, we make it our personal mission to hunt down the absolute best lattes in the area. Now that we live here, we dedicate one day a week to exploring a brand-new local coffee shop. We've been living in Arizona for 7 years now, and after visiting The Coffee Builders in Phoenix this week, my only question is: Where has this place been all our lives?! This incredible hidden gem is tucked away in the Warehouse District and is a bit out of sight--you'd likely never just stumble across it unless you were explicitly looking for it. But the moment you walk through the doors, you are transported. The architectural design is completely unexpected, modern, and striking--especially the gorgeous, geometric upside-down wooden pyramids stretching across the ceiling. It creates an upscale, unique atmosphere unlike anywhere else. Now for the main event: the drinks and food. I ordered the Orange Blossom Latte and my husband ordered The Slopes. Both drinks were absolutely outstanding. They were rich, velvety, thick, and incredibly creamy with deep, distinct flavor profiles. Best of all, they weren't overly sugary--which is huge for us since we typically prefer our coffee at half-sweetness. To pair with our drinks, we tried the Blueberry Bourbon Maple Pastry. It was phenomenal: flaky on the outside, light and pillowy-creamy on the inside, beautifully balanced, and generously loaded with fresh blueberries. The staff was highly professional, exceptionally welcoming, and deeply knowledgeable about their shop and everything on the menu. From this day forward, The Coffee Builders is officially our #1 favorite coffee shop in AZ. Do yourself a favor, make this a top priority on your bucket list, and treat yourself--you will not be disappointed!

The current early-2026 menu features the return of the B.E.C. (Bacon, Egg & Cheddar) sandwich, the new Chimichurri Steak & Eggs Hash, and seasonal sweets like Strawberry Tres Leches French Toast. I usually always order the BLT Eggs Benedict; it's probably my favorite breakfast item they serve. However, the picture on the seasonal menu looked so good I had to give it a try: tender steak, potatoes, peppers, and onions, topped with feta, eggs, and a vibrant, garlicky green chimichurri sauce. I've got to say, I now have a new favorite dish, and I think they should consider adding it to the menu permanently.

We were both only eating half our breakfast - but I finish the other half of his so delicious hash since it wouldn't reheat as easily as the omelette. Planning to return frequently since it is only here for a few months. My friend loved the farmhouse hash and plans to find the CA Riverside location.

(I did not. I ordered a full breakfast and a waffle like an adult with priorities.) I went around 9:15am on a Wednesday--only a few tables were occupied, and the staff was super friendly, gave great recommendations, and the food came out fast. Inside is dialed in with chandeliers, French-y posters and photos everywhere, and a pastry case with tarts, pastries, and cheesecake that basically dares you to behave. The croissant was the star... fresh, flaky, light, buttery... exactly what you want. The egg was cooked perfectly and the cheese was melted into it almost like a mini omelette (loved that). My only hiccup was the "bacon." It leaned more limp pork belly than crispy bacon and had a distinct smoke flavor that wasn't the traditional hardwood/hickory vibe I'm used to. Also... because the cheese and egg are fused together, it's basically impossible to pick the bacon out once it's in there. Next time I'd order it without bacon or ask for it on the side and make it crispy. It came with a side salad, which is not what I expected with breakfast, but it was actually great, fresh spring mix and a delicious dressing with a subtle sweet undertone. There were also hash browns with a crispy exterior and soft, warm interior, exactly the texture you hope for I just wish there were more of them! Because I have no self-control around French cafes, I also ordered the Belgian waffle with fruit and whipped cream. The waffle was warm and tasty, more tender/soft than crispy, and I ended up preferring it to the 'scrape the roof of your mouth' style that most restaurants serve up. The whipped cream tasted freshly whipped and the fruit selection was generous. My only critique: I'd skip the granulated sugar on top. The waffle is sweet enough already, and biting into sugar crystals isn't my favorite texture. For a drink I tried the blueberry lavender matcha. It had crushed blueberries in it, but the matcha flavor was pretty mild and the lavender got lost. I also would've liked a touch more sweetness from the syrup but overall it drank a bit "soft" and subtle. Bottom line... really cool little spot with friendly service, quick food, and a pastry case that will absolutely ruin any plan you had to "just eat light." I'll be back but next time I'm customizing that croissant sandwich and letting the pastries talk me into bad decisions.
