The cashier was really sweet and let me know that they had vegan alternatives available which I absolutely loved. They also don't upcharge either which was a bonus. I ended up ordering an iced ceremonial matcha latte and everything bagel with vegan cream cheese. The presentation for both my drink and the bagel were 10/10 perfect. The everything bagel was a bit salty and the matcha latte was pretty diluted/didn't have much flavor. I did think their portions were pretty large for the price which was great. If you're looking for a trendy place that brings immaculate vibes, come here! -1 star because the matcha wasn't perfect and the bagel was overly salty. Also, the wifi was not working properly so I had to use my hotspot to work.

The food is consistently delicious, and the pastries are absolutely amazing--always fresh and hard to resist. What really sets this place apart, though, is the service. The owners, Matt and Ava, are often there themselves, making sure everything runs smoothly and that every customer feels taken care of. They are incredibly warm, personable, and genuinely invested in creating a great experience. I've had the pleasure of watching Lola's grow over nearly a decade, and it's been amazing to see how they've built such a loyal community. They're not just a local café--they're part of the neighborhood, always involved and making everyone feel like family. I'm a very happy, loyal customer and can't recommend Lola's enough.

The selection is amazing, pastries, donuts, croissants, and more, all beautifully made and clearly fresh. We grabbed a whole box and everything was a hit. My absolute favorite was the s'mores Belgian waffle. The marshmallow and chocolate drizzle on top is so good, and it had that perfect balance of sweet without being overwhelming. The chocolate croissant with chocolate crème in the middle and the powdered sugar-filled donuts were also delicious. I can't stop thinking about them! If you're nearby, it's well worth a stop. Great quality, lots of variety, and friendly service. We'll definitely be back!

I am writing to report a very disappointing experience my family and I recently had at the 25612…read moreCrown Valley Parkway Ladera Ranch, CA location. The evening before my brother's fiancée's birthday, my parents and I visited the store to order a cake for the celebration. We were assisted by an employee named Aiden. From the beginning, he showed little to no customer service--there was no greeting, friendliness, or engagement during the interaction. Despite this, we continued with the order and specifically requested a fresh cake to be picked up the following day at 3:00 PM. The next day, when my mother and brother went to pick up the cake, my mother noticed that the display cake that had been in the case the previous evening was no longer there. She asked Aiden if the cake he gave them was the display cake. Instead of responding, he simply stared at her and did not answer the question. My brother also noticed the lack of basic customer service and found the interaction very strange and unprofessional. Later that day, we brought the cake home and served it during the celebration. As soon as we cut into it, everyone noticed the cake was very different and tasted horrible. It tasted stale and dry. The strawberries were very mushy and smelled spoiled. None of us finished our cake slices and still have a large portion remaining. The following day, I called the store to explain the situation. A female employee answered the phone and told me she was busy with customers but would call me back shortly to sort out the issue. About 30 minutes later, I received a call back, and it was Aiden again. I explained everything that happened, but once again he showed no concern, empathy, or professionalism. When I asked about my mother's question regarding whether the cake was the display cake, he claimed he "didn't hear" her question. He did not apologize for the experience and simply offered a free slice of cake as compensation. My family and I have purchased cakes from this location several times before and have always enjoyed both the quality of the cakes and the customer service. In fact, my family has owned restaurants and businesses ourselves, so we understand very well how important customer service and quality are in the hospitality industry. This is not the way customers should be treated, which is why this experience was so disappointing to us. This is the first time we have ever had to complain. We were very surprised that a cake we specifically requested to be fresh tasted bad and have been displayed for days. Aiden also mentioned that cakes and pastries can remain out for up to two days, which was concerning given the quality we experienced. We truly loved this location and had always enjoyed coming here in the past. Unfortunately, what could have been a small issue turned into a very negative experience due to the lack of professionalism, communication, and customer care from the manager on duty. Because of this experience, my family and I will no longer be returning to this location in the future. I hope this issue can be addressed so other customers do not experience the same situation.

It was half a chicken (leg, wing, breast and thigh) perfectly juicy and crispy, along with mashed potatoes and gravy with a side of jalapeño corn bread. Even with two people we still couldn't finish everything. They do not compromise on taste at all even with the portion size. Shout out to our server Alfredo for the fried chicken recommendation.

But they also have wine for the non-beer drinkers. We love their pizza, but be sure to check all ingredients. They do a hot honey drizzle on several of their specialty pizzas. If you don't want that, you can request it on the side. But they have other options besides pizza, so something for everyone. We also love their Caesar salad....and one is enough for two people to share, especially if you're splitting a pizza. We enjoy sitting on the patio. They are also very accommodating on special requests....we often get a "partially cooked", uncut pizza to take home so we can finish it on the grill (or oven) and have a hot pizza versus a takeout pizza that is cold by the time you get it home.

Horrible drive through! I was first and the other two cars behind me went ahead of me. So much for first come, first serve. Oh yeah, they won't even honor my living social coupon for my big Mac and fries. It's prepaid, why am I still getting charged $1.50 for each??? I asked the manager himself (that barely speak any English), and he has no idea either. It's like they picked any guy standing in front of the home depot and made him their manager. read more
