    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Peaceful hidden gem with respectful and kind service and great coffee/food![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 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. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating and service was amazing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Items ordered were delivered right to me at a table and staff held the door open. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Such a great place with a calm and peaceful energy.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice area to get some work done or catch up with friends.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Match here is sooo goooddd. I get it light ice and a bit sweeter and it's so yummy! I highly recommend this place. The owner is amazing and truly dedicated to making every drink perfect while making sure every customer is happy and satisfied. I've been here many times, and I've never been disappointed. I'm so glad I got to experience such a welcoming place. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is beautiful and so unique--the tables, paintings, and decor all make it feel special.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I highly recommend stopping by if you're looking for great drinks and a wonderful experience!

    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.

    I had the sweetest experience at Lulu Coffee! [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is so cute and cozy, you can really feel the love the owners put into it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 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! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, the vibe, the care for customers, and the quality drinks make this spot stand out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'll definitely be back especially for that matcha

    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.

    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

    This is such a cool little gem on the outskirts of downtown Fullerton! The owner's Lulu and her husband are just fabulous. They have a small food menu with some delectable items and a fantastic selection of coffees and teas. It is all in a charming little historical home turned into a little coffee house. They are also very accommodating to my best friend Maverick and love giving him treats. I've had the same thing every time because their bagels are the best!

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute coffee shop in Fullerton. It's basically inside what looks like a house.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is really inviting and warm, and the setup outside creates a nice little tranquil feeling.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside has a handful of tables, can be good for studying.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Korean coffee is really good. It isn't too sweet but more milky which I liked. The couple who run the place are very nice, and seeing all their regulars come in and be greeted by them was nice interaction to watch.

    My favorite coffee shop in Fullerton! I always get their Matcha and Croffle. I've tried their lox salmon bagel and butter and berry jam bagel as well and it was just as delicious. Mr. Tim and Miss Ophelia are always very helpful and very kind and very very welcoming. The store is decorated with lots of modern and vintage art pieces which really takes you back to an old coffee shop aesthetic.

    Vanilla Thesis is the best better than probably all the rest…read moreThe coffee is so tasty Not nasty or pasty Their cheese and ham croissant is also bomb better than being made by mom One thing to note about this place, the parking sucks. But fear not, you can go into the structure, park in one of the "employee only" spots, and just tell them which spot and you're golden (wish I knew that before I came and parked across the street). Also, another reason why this place is great is that it's not full at all. Might be because of the parking situation, but the place is near empty which makes it have a nice luxury vibe. Their Vanilla Thesis drink at 50% sweet is soooo good. It's a great blend of coffee and tastes great. You can totally taste the vanilla. Their ham and cheese croissant is also great.

    Discovered this beautiful coffee spot a month ago and fell in love with their seasonal drinks…read more(strawberry vanilla americano and strawberry cold brew) so we have been coming here as a special treat for ourselves and told and brought our friends. However, today's visit felt different. We ordered our usual strawberry coffee drinks but they weren't pink. When I asked the barista about it she said the syrup has changed. The drinks barely tasted like strawberry and we were disappointed. I immediately regretted upgrading my size to 20oz too. SO I looked up other recent yelp reviews, and I saw that someone posted a picture of their drink 17 hours ago and it was still pink. That makes me question what happened to our drinks.

    I stopped by this coffee shop on Saturday with my fiancé, and it was exactly what we needed to kick…read moreoff the weekend right! The vibe is cozy and welcoming, with a steady buzz of customers that shows just how popular this spot is. My fiancé got the iced sweet cream latte and absolutely loved it! smooth, perfectly balanced sweetness, and the espresso was top-notch. I went with the iced Americano topped with banana cold foam, and wow, it was a game changer! The banana foam was creamy, flavorful, and not overly sweet, pairing beautifully with the bold espresso. Both drinks were prepared and refreshed us instantly. The only minor downside is parking, which can be a bit tricky, but the location is clearly thriving with tons of foot traffic and business out front, so it's totally understandable. Once you're inside, the excellent drinks and friendly service more than make up for it. We'll definitely be back soon highly recommend this place if you're looking for quality coffee and a great local atmosphere! 4.5 stars in my personal opinion

I enjoyed the Strawberry Matcha,…read morewhich was refreshing, smooth, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of sweetness. My husband ordered the Brown Sugar Maple Latte and absolutely loved the rich, warm flavors. We also shared the Ham and Cheese Pesto Croissant, and it was delicious--light, buttery, flaky, and filled with great flavor. Everything tasted fresh and thoughtfully prepared. One of our favorite parts was the outdoor seating area. We loved dining outside and enjoying the beautiful weather while sipping our drinks and relaxing.

    It is unfortunate that as I was browsing reviews, another very recent review touched upon the…read moreservice experience here too. I came in today and was served by a blonde cashier who felt cold and unfriendly. She was very bubbly and warm towards the patron (who was also a white woman) before me, who maybe seemed to be a friend or a regular. They were chatting for a bit and when it came to be my turn at the register, her face completely fell and she did not welcome me or say any greeting. Just.....silence........so I awkwardly ordered my drink. Once I said my order, she turned her head to the specials menu, and had a cold, blank expression, which made me think that it was out or that they couldn't do what I asked. I asked her if the drink I ordered was available, and there was a long pause before she dryly laughed it off and said that she didn't register what I was saying. It felt like a lame excuse and it felt so awkward; so I just tried to be as polite as possible and continued with my order. I wanted to just sit down and leave asap. It was so disorienting because she had acted in a completely different way with the girl before me. I just shrugged it off as a bad day, but when I consulted my friend about it, she said that the same girl acted in the same way towards her. And then I came here to write a review and saw that another Asian woman seemed to have a similar experience, so it doesn't just seem like a one-off thing....

    I need the recipes, OR to find the distributors for those buttermilk biscuits and Fresno pepper…read morejam. I honestly come to Moongoat because of those things. I like this location more than others because of the bigger parking lot, more seating options (including an upstairs area and outdoor seating), and I've also received better service here compared to other locations. The place is simply decorated, and it honestly is a solid spot if you're looking to crank out some work or meet with colleagues/friends. It does get pretty crowded so it's better to get an early head start if you can, especially on the weekends. In terms of their drinks, my favorite is the blueberry lavender matcha latte. It's on the sweeter side and has a floral aftertaste, but the flavors mix really well together. I typically get their matcha drinks or teas because I'm not a fan of coffee, but my friends that are coffee fiends are fans of the various coffee drinks here. Compared to other cafes, I feel like the cost of the drinks is standard, but the prepared food and pastries are on the steeper side. Still a great spot, I enjoy coming for the atmosphere and biscuits!

    I've been to other locations of Moongoat Coffee Roasters, and I continue to be a fan of the brand…read morebut this location was slightly less satisfying than the products I had at their other locations. The location has plenty of parking and plenty of seating. There is an outdoor patio, and inside there is a first floor seating area, and a second floor seating area. The interior had high ceilings and modern practical decor. Staff will take your order at the cashier, but they also have a kiosk if you want to avoid human interaction. I was here for a few hours, so I started off with a hot beverage since I saw that they have mug service. I had the hot Churro Latte ($8.15/large) and I was warned it's a bit sweet so staff suggested that I get it less sweet. I appreciated the gesture but maybe that's why I didn't taste too much of the churro flavor. It tasted like a good regular latte but maybe they held back on the caramel and cinnamon to the point I couldn't detect it. Seating is first come first serve. It was actually really busy and difficult to find an ideal spot. Since I was alone I sat at a high top ledge, strategically near an outlet. From what I saw, they had a really good amount of outlets in the indoor seating area. Later on I went back and ordered an iced Blueberry Lavender Matcha with Cold Foam ($9.25/large) and a Deluxe Avocado Toast ($15) which comes with egg, bacon, and herb oil. I like that this location serves the avocado toast with a knife and fork cause it was much needed. It was a bit on the wet side. Maybe I should ask for light herb oil next time. For how much this avocado toast cost, I would have liked more avocado. The avocado was more of a spread, not whole slices of avocado. Still good, just an observation. The blueberry lavender matcha was okay. I could taste the lavender but it was overpowering the matcha and the blueberry was hard to detect at all. Honestly the location and plentiful seatings is what stood out most from this experience. I would consider coming back since I know their products are good from trying their other locations but I wouldn't get the drinks I ordered this time. For how expensive coming here was, I wish I was a little more satisfied.
