    Cold Brew
    Audrey N.

    The cold brew is not acidic or sour at all! It tastes almost like it needs to brew longer, because I wish it was a little stronger but it's great! The staff is super friendly here and there's plenty of indoor or outdoor seating. It's a home turned into a cafe, so it feels very much like you're a guest in their space. It's a cute place to study and I would come here again! I wish they didn't have a kiosk because I love talking to the team about the drinks and recommendations

    We're not from Fullerton, we're actually from Ventura county visiting for D23. Only reason I'm giving it a 4 stars is because we waited about 30 minutes for 2 drinks, but to be completely honest we couldn't be mad, we did see only 2 people working and it looked like the gentleman was the only person preparing the drinks soooo the drinks were so good! The place is sooo cute, reminded us of a coffee shop that we have back at home. Location was easy to find, the individuals working super nice! The woman was so apologetic and kept checking up on us, even took the time to explain why it was taking so long. But overall, great place to visit, the coffee and matcha so good! If you're in a hurry maybe order pick up but if you have the time in the world check it out and enjoy their super homey place. If I'm ever town again, this will definitely be a spot to come and buy more coffee.

    Nice, cozy place. Coffee with dessert tastes good. Service Friendly. Only parking lot is difficult.

    order this Korean style latte!
    Jeff R.

    Im mostly here to talk about one of the best iced coffee I have ever had. The Iced Korea style latte AKA Da-Bang. A perfect combo of bite and sweetness. Has kind of a burnt caramel taste. Soooo good for a hot day. The vanilla iced latte is also very good. Another example of a great balance of flavor and also not too sweet.

    Peaceful hidden gem with respectful and kind service and great coffee/food! This place can be a little hard to find, but there are a few parking spots directly out front or street parking in nearby neighborhoods. Ordering is easy through a kiosk, with lots of options for customizations such as sweetness levels. They accept Apple Pay and prices were fair but I would say a bit on the higher side for certain food. However quality and taste justify the pricing and supporting local buisnesses is always a plus. There are also plenty of fair pricing options if you are looking to stay under a certain amount. Milk alternatives are extra. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating and service was amazing. Items ordered were delivered right to me at a table and staff held the door open. Such a great place with a calm and peaceful energy. Nice area to get some work done or catch up with friends.

    Found this cute little coffee shop recently so stopped by to get some work done on a random weekday. There's a super tiny lot on the side so most likely it will be full so you'll have to look for street parking. The space inside looks a bit like a house. They have a kiosk you can order from. There's a couple small tables as well as bigger communal tables. Restrooms are available as well. For the food, the bagels looked pretty good so I got an everything bagel with cream cheese and it did not disappoint! I also was intrigued by the Korean style coffee so I opted to get it at half sweet since they said it is on the sweeter side. I'm so glad I got it half sweet but it was perfectly well balanced and I really enjoyed it! Would definitely come back again.

    Really nice people, but they don't talk to you when you order (machine) so you don't know immediately. I got the lox bagel, cinnamon caramel croffle, and Madagascar vanilla coffee. They were all delicious, just the croffle was a bit too sweet for my Asian tastebuds. Beautiful inside seating and outside. We love the porch. Abundant lime tree outside, well manicured.

    Lu Lu Coffee is a coffee shop located on Commonwealth in Fullerton. They have a variety of lattes, teas, espresso drinks, bagels, croffles, decaffeinated Korean sweetened fruity teas, unsweetened loose leaf teas, cakes, crepes, and coffee beans. I ordered the Iced Madagascar Vanilla Latte. It was excellent! Ran down smooth with perfect balance of vanilla and coffee flavor. Coffee was super strong as my heart catapulted through the roof but it was still enjoyable. Service was super warm and friendly. I was greeted upon entry and told to order on the tablet and to let them know if I have any questions. I signed up for rewards but couldn't exit the screen to get to the next step. Another barista ended up helping me exit the screen and then I was able to continue my order from there. Once I placed my order, I was asked if I wanted it hot or iced. Within a few minutes, my drink was handed to me and was thanked for my order. Comfy and cozy atmosphere with nice decor. The exterior and interior is pretty much like a home. A few dining tables inside with a lot of mementos under the glass top. I couldn't say the environment was serene as one of the patrons was talking on their phone loudly but I was there to grab and go anyway. There's also seating outside. Excellent Madagascar Vanilla Latte with super warm service. Will be back for another visit!

    First timer! I loved the little experience here From the server helping us choose the right coffee to having a delicious sweet and savory treat to share. We had a nice slow morning over coffee playing games and it wasn't loud at all, perfect to chat about all the good things happening in life.

    I had the sweetest experience at Lulu Coffee! This place is so cute and cozy, you can really feel the love the owners put into it. They were interacting with so many regulars, remembering faces and going out of their way to be thoughtful. I even saw them add extra fruit for a couple to share, which was such a small but meaningful touch. I ordered a matcha and a vanilla iced coffee both were really good, but the matcha was definitely my favorite. Super smooth and flavorful! Overall, the vibe, the care for customers, and the quality drinks make this spot stand out. I'll definitely be back especially for that matcha

    None of my previous experiences with cold brew coffee (from other places) ended well. They either tasted acidic or they caused irritation to my stomach. I thought maybe I was too weak for cold brews, so I had never ordered it again. Then I had the cold brew at LULU COFFEE. From the first sip to the last, didn't turn sour, stomach didn't complain, and no palpitation. Ophelie (boss lady) told me it would be good without any cream and sugar. She was not lying. To a person that rarely consumes black coffee, LULU's cold brew took me by surprise, in a good way. Anyway, I shall order it again.

    I love this place. This coffee shop is located in a house. It's kept as a house to create a warm, welcoming, homey, comfortable vibe...and it works. The interior has several tables scattered about and both inside and out are decorated with eclectic items and antiques. Many of the items are uniquely interesting, cute, and just plain cool. There is also seating outside both in the front yard and back yard. Once you order and pay on the kiosk (in the area where the kitchen would be) you take a seat (inside or out) and your order will be brought to you. I ordered a hot Madagascar vanilla latte and a cinnamon-caramel croffle, then mosied outside to take a seat under a tree in the backyard area. The owners here are the sweetest people on the planet. They really care about their customers, whether you're a regular or brand new. I've never experienced that level of welcoming at any business. The latte was heaven. I've had superb vanilla lattes before but this one was flawless. The coffee was exquisite (they roast their own beans on-site), the rich vanilla flavor wasn't overly sweet, and was blended at the perfect ratio with the coffee. The temperature at which it was served made it immediately drinkable. It was so smooooooooth! The croffle was quite tasty. I really enjoyed it. They also put a mini berry croffle on my plate, I guess as a free sample, and I loved it (and will order a full-sized one next time...which means their clever plan worked! haha) I sat for a while, relaxing in the quietness and serene feeling I had while sitting under the tree. Realizing how much I enjoyed the roast of their coffee, I went back inside and bought a bag of beans to take home. Every once in a while a person finds a place they really connect with on multiple levels. For me, this is one of those places. This is now a favorite coffee spot for me and I plan on being a long-time customer.

    I LOVE LULU COFFEE. it is so cozy inside and you are welcome by the owners who are so sweet and take the time to remember your name and even chat w you for a bit too. Their matcha latte is perfect and the korean latte will keep you caffeinated. I've also tried the lox bagel and croffles which i recommend! you feel at home when you are here

There was also a yogurt-like cream on the bottom, and I personally could have gone without this cream, but loved the drink nonetheless! Service: You self order, and the drink comes out pretty fast in five to ten minutes. The cashiers are nice and call you by your name! Ambiance: The best quality about this cafe is it's such a nice place to study with many tables inside, a few tables outside, and a clean bathroom. Parking is also easy with a upstairs lot facing Vivot! There's also a bit of area to walk around the cafe for a study break! Also huge shout out to this cafe's hours as they're open from 7 AM-11 PM, so you feel no rush to quickly finish your tasks! Please come to Vivot for not only a refreshing drink, but a beautiful place to study that is open late!

    My second time here…read more Drinks: underwhelming. Not well proportioned ingredients between the chosen flavor, milk and matcha. Waterdowned with plenty of ice. Price: overpriced for both drinks and sandwivhes. Although I don't mind paying extra for a satisfying drink, this one is not one of those. Ambiance: the walls, decor, plants and furnitures needs plenty of improvement. It looked like they were going for a minimalist look but it seems too bland and all over the place. I appreciate the music but the overall ambiance is not very inviting. Service: self serve to order and they ask for tip? The customers are expected to clear the tables and put away food and drink containers. It doesn't make sense. Parking: it's downtown fullerton, unless you know the area, it might be difficult for you to find parking especially during peak hours. But there's a couple of parking structure nearby which is a plus because it's covered and free. By the way, I initially ordered the classic strawberry matcha for comparison to other matcha drinks I've had from other cafes and I came the 2nd time to try the matcha flight to give it a chance but I was underwhelmed on both times. On both occasion I ordered my drinks with coconut milk and it was so overpowering and matcha flavor is very mild and with addition of plenty of ice, it taste like a waterdowned green drink that's milky in flavor.

The inside of this place is quaint, a decent amount of seating and chill music. Probably a good study spot. Very clean too. I ordered the Caramel Bliss latte (got it half sweet)... it's a caramel latte with vanilla cold foam and caramel drizzle. The prices here are good! The coffee is advertised as $5.99 and after tax comes out to about $6.50 which is still cheaper than most coffee shops these days. The drinks itself tasted amazing! Not too sweet and great flavor. I liked that you can actually taste the coffee. I think since it has cold foam it's still on the sweeter side so if you don't like coffee too sweet maybe skip the foam.
