Saturday mornings clearly bring the crowds here because the drive-thru line was wrapped all the way out onto the street, and it definitely took some patience to get through. That said, once we finally reached the window, the experience turned around. We ordered an iced banana horchata latte and a regular iced horchata latte, and both drinks were worth the wait. The horchata flavor was smooth and well-balanced, not overly sweet, with a nice cinnamon note that complemented the coffee instead of overpowering it. The banana version added a subtle, natural sweetness that made it feel a little more unique without being artificial or heavy. Even with the long line, the quality of the drinks stood out. If you're planning to stop by on a weekend, it's probably best to expect a wait, but at least you can count on getting a solid, flavorful coffee once you make it through. read more

The first time I tried Mugs was during a weekday and early morning and my Vanilla Latte with Horchata cold foam was amazing! I ordered it today Sunday, March 1st around 1pm and it tasted nasty as hell. Yes a latte is milk but my drink was milk with a little bit of vanilla with a little bit of ice. Girl in the drive thru couldn't hear anything I was saying so my order was wrong at first. And come to find out all she was doing was talking the whole time. Won't be back. Unless I want nothing but milk in my drink. Make sure to come during the weekday if you want your coffee made right. read more

My boyfriend took me out for a coffee break, and we stumbled across this super cute spot! I ordered the iced caramel drizzle latte, and it was so good -- perfectly sweet and refreshing. The inside is adorable and cozy, making it a great place to relax, study, or catch up with someone. The service was also really nice, especially since it was our first time there. She gave us great suggestions and made us feel very welcome. Overall, such a great find, and we'll definitely be back! read more

Mugs Coffee Roasters - Whittier - Iced Caramel Drizzle Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Whittier, California

Small local spot in Whittier. Very clean on the inside and outside. I've driven past this place plenty of times and have been wanting to give it a try. So today was the day. I ordered from the "popular" menu. I ordered a Iced Horchata Latte. I'm not sure what it was, but the first half of the drink it was nice and tasty. Perfect blend of sweet and coffee. Once I got to just abt half of it all I could taste was all black coffee. It was the weirdest thing I had never experienced with any coffee. I couldn't even finish the drink. I also ordered the Cheese jalapeño bagel which was just a decent bagel. Service was good. Maybe I'll give them another try if in the area. read more

I've been to the San Dimas and La Verne locations but recently visited the Whittier location. Was happy to see there was a drive thru because parking isn't the most convenient. To no surprise, the coffee was amazing and customer service was top tier!! Thanks Mugs, you never miss!! read more

I have been coming to this spot since it opened and I would consider it a must spot to patron in Whittier. Their drinks are so delicious, coffee and non-coffee alike. Their pastries are a perfect sweet treat and they change periodically. They have several non-dairy options. The baristas are always friendly and polite and service is very fast - even when they are packed. The coffee bean itself is very good. The only reason I am giving it a 4 star and not a 5 is because the sweetness is not always consistent. Sometimes it is perfect, sometimes it is heavy. This café is a small Lil stand on Whittier Blvd next to the laundromat. It has outdoor seating and a few seats inside. I love the feel of it. Very comfy and homey feel. I will continue to stop here, even if it is a bit of a drive for me. read more

Enjoy dinner in Pico Rivera, wanted some coffee afterwards, drove down to Whittier, only to check out this place because it offered Cold Brew Café de Olla. An hour before closing, only drive-through was open, not disappointed at all, the cold brew was excellent! I ordered the MUGS Mexican mocha, which was really good too. Customer Service was good. See you next time we're in the area! read more

Happy Hour is 50% off from 4-7 PM. They have BOGO bagel deals on UE/DD. I tried the cafe latte with oat milk this time, and it was okay. I think it would have tasted better with a flavor shot. It was mostly milk, which I didn't mind, but I went home and added lavender to it. My partner got the cold brew with an added espresso shot, but it wasn't as strong as I expected it to be. The inside is small, so it feels cramped when a line starts to form. Also, it's hard to see the menu with all the deco in the way. I hope one day their horchata is veg*n-friendly! read more

*Note: TDLR at the end of the review Banana Horchata Latte: 5/10 The banana tasted pretty artificial and I think they use 2% milk. Espresso isn't super strong, but it was decently priced. I wouldn't go out of my way to get it again. Service: 10/10 They were super super friendly and definitely bring the energy. Great customer service Ambiance: 8/10 It's super cute!! There's very minimal seating on the inside and outside, but it's a great hangout spot or somewhere to catch up. Just note that there isn't a restroom for customers. There's not a lot of parking, but there is a drive thru if you're looking for something convenient. TDLR: A very cute spot to hangout or catch up. Minimal seating. No restrooms. Drive-thru available. Minimal parking. Do not recommend for studying that requires electronics. There are no outlets. Good for sketching though! read more

I ordered the Neapolitan Latte, Vanilla Latte, and a Cake Pop The Neapolitan Latte was good but it was overly sweet for me. There was no burned flavor which is a sign of good coffee. If you don't mind a really sweet, then I'd recommend this drink. The Vanilla Latte had good flavor, wasn't overly sweet, and coffee didn't have a burned taste. I would recommend to order this. The Cake Pop was pretty average, I wouldn't go out of my way for it. Wasn't bad but I'd probably pass on my next visit. Overall this is a great place to get coffee, the prices are similar to Starbucks but I think it is better. The drinks came out quick and the staff were friendly. Ambiance is casual, limited seating inside, this wouldn't be my first choice to study since there's no outlets. read more

Terrible customer service. When you walk in, you aren't even acknowledged--just stared at. They eventually set your drink down without even letting you know it's ready. This was my second time visiting, the first experience was just as bad, but I wanted to give them another chance. They seriously need to work on their customer service training. read more

Dulce de leche latte is phenomenal. Actually an incredible price for a fancy flavored coffee in CA. Customer service was great. Super cute drive through shop. There is also seating inside. Plenty of parking. Loved it and will be back. read more

While in the area I decided to try this coffee place. I've wanted to try Mugs Coffee Place for a long time and it did not disappoint. The drink I ordered was good. I ordered a low-calorie cold decaf horchata drink. The taste was amazing. The ingredients were incredible. I love their menu because they already have a menu for low calorie, so if you want to watch your weight. They have happy hour every day starting from the afternoon to evening which is great. I will try a pastry and a hot drink next time. Note: They have a drive-thru and the place is very modern with indoor and outdoor seating., read more

I was up early this morning and running errands. I found this small coffee shop in the area that has good reviews, so I decided to stop by to get some coffee. Drive thru is available. There is a small parking lot outside of this small coffee shop. However, it might be difficult to pull out your car when you leave due to the drive thru line is right behind the parking spots. It was not the perfect set up. I ordered an Iced banana horchata latte and MUGS Mexican mocha. The drinks came out with perfect sweetness and flavorful. The coffee has strong flavor. They were not watery at all. This coffee shop is pet friendly, and I saw dog owners brought their dogs with them. Will come by again for coffee if I am in the area. read more

I was in the area and was looking for some quick coffee to get me through the morning. I came across Mugs Coffee Roaster from my search and wanted to give it a try. My first impression was that the store was small, but cozy. There were some seats available inside and outside. This store also had a drive thru. I went around 11:30 am on a Sunday and it was busy both inside and in the drive-thru. I was debating on some drinks, so I asked the staff about the Banana Horchata Latte. The staff said it was generally sweet. With that in mind, I got it as a large with 50% sweetness. Overall, I felt I should have gotten this at 75% sweetness, since it was a bit lacking. You could still taste banana and horchata but it was a hint of it. The drink was 6.5/10, but I'd think it would be 8/10 if a bit sweeter. American Express is accepted. read more

Mugs Coffee Roasters - Whittier - Iced Strawberry Horchata Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Whittier, California

I have heard so much recent discussion about Mugs Coffee Roasters-Whittier from both friends/family and from social media. So, we decided to give it a try on a recent Sunday morning. Ordering ahead on the Yelp app for store pick-up was very easy and much more convenient. The menu is extensive with so many selections to choose from. It's hard to make a decision. We finally decided on the options below: * Iced Blueberry Horchata Latte (Large) * Hot-MUGS Mexican Mocha (Large) The Mexican Mocha is by far the best with a nice, rich flavor that was perfect for Sunday morning. I had high hopes for the Iced Blueberry Horchata. I don't know why. Perhaps it was the name that drew me in. You can definitely see the blue color of the blueberry but it is a very subtle blueberry flavor. Since it is horchata, you have to make sure to stir the drink so that the ingredients don't settle at the bottom. The drink is not your typical super sweet horchata. Rather, it has more of an espresso flavor to it. It's definitely a pretty drink to look at. This location used to be the Chicken Koop that unfortunately closed around the time of the pandemic. Charming but small, I highly recommend that you order ahead to save time. Or, order ahead here and then move on down the street to Rodeo 72 for a hearty meal to compliment your coffee. Enjoy your visit! read more

Love this coffee shop that donates to no kill animal shelters on a monthly basis! They have a doggy theme with lots of cute merch. Minimal seating can be found inside as well as outside, allowing you to bring your pup! Yay for dog friendly! There's a drive thru to make things convenient. It's also in the same lot as a laundromat, so customers there can always stop here for a little pick me up. The workers are super friendly. And the drinks are a little on the sweet side, but you can adjust the sweetness. They have options with no caffeine too. My husband loved the vanilla late and I enjoyed my strawberry horchata. Overall great experience and would return! read more

Not good coffee , watered down i got coconut pineapple refresher& banana horchata cold foam & cafe de olla latte yeah no never again

We came in around noon, there were plenty of parking around. It is a very small area and cafe. They do have a patio to sit and enjoy the view of the hills and or traffic on the street. They do offer Drive thru That's amazing, they also offer items for those who are doing Keto. Drinks sweetened with Monkfruit! I was like Oh Em Gee! Where have you been all my life. As we entered the cafe We were greeted by a very friendly cashier Told her we are completely new and proceeded to help us out with so many amazing options. We were bummed that so many of their pastries that I haven't had the chance to meet were sold out. No worries! One day I shall try something. We ordered a plain bagel and cream cheese, cause.. why not. We enjoyed our time here. Thanks guys! read more

I really enjoy the coffee at Mugs Coffee Roasters, but I think there's definitely room for improvement when it comes to the mobile ordering experience. First, the app needs better customization options. There should be clearer ways to remove certain flavors or modify drinks more specifically. Right now, it feels limited if you're trying to adjust your order to your preference. Second, ordering ahead doesn't really save time. Even when I place an online order, I still end up waiting about 10-15 minutes because no one asks if anyone is there for a mobile pickup. You basically have to stand in line with everyone ordering in person. That kind of defeats the purpose of ordering ahead. I love supporting local coffee spots, but improving the website functionality and having a smoother online order pickup process would make a big difference. read more

You know it's good when you visit 4 times in one week! I've been looking for a delicious iced banana latte and I think I found it. Perfectly sweet and tastes like actual banana. Also tried the dulce de leche latte and caramel latte both were also so delicious! Service is quick and friendly both inside and drive thru. Small but cute inside sitting area with stools. Outside patio area is big with picnic style tables if you're looking for more room, just be ready for cars zooming past. Can't wait to try different items! read more

First time coming here. Came through the drive thru around 7:10 ish so there was no line yet. The walk in and indoor seating was not open yet. I ordered a banana horchata latte 1/3 sweet with regular milk. It was pretty good, tasted slightly watery, I was expecting a little more coffee flavor. Yes I had to dock a star for that because i came here for the coffee, but to be fair it was more of a 4.5 not a solid 4. Although coming inside was not an option, it looked nice and as if the vibes they would give good vibes :) read more

Unsure if we arrived during a rush but both the drive thru line and the in-person line was long. We decided to stick with the drive thru since parking was limited. The seating area looks pretty, I'd like to dine-in one day. There was so many good coffee choices! I ended up getting the hot banana horchatta. It was really good! Neither flavor overpowered the other. The staff were friendly. Altitude seems their system was having trouble. We weren't able to get a receipt, which was fine. Nevertheless, I'd return again. read more

They have a massive amount of various drinks that they could make for you. I would consider myself a coffee head as I have nearly set all my traveling around the type of coffee that is being served in the local area. I was surprised when I saw that they have keto options of coffee as I have not been to any other coffee shops with any keto options. My drink: Large Champurrado Latte This drink was very tasty. They have a 2x MUGS coffee. This is their Cold Brew with 2 shots of espresso!! They also told me that they have a 4x MUGS coffee that's on their "secret" menu. Make sure to have 9-1-1 on speed dial, lol. Looking forward to trying out their L.A. shop. PRICES are extremely reasonable.

Good overall. I like how unique and cozy the cafe looks compared to other cafes. The taste of my coffee was good but too sweet. There is not much seating inside. It looks like a mini diner.
