    I really wish I could leave a better review but this is based purely off of my iced Oatmilk latte which shouldn't look and taste like brown water. I took 2 sips and just left it on the table and went to a different coffee shop. The vibes and staff were great but gonna have to pass on this place.

    breakfast pesto sandwich and tomato soup
    Karina G.

    I've been here twice and both times were fantastic! The service is great with everyone being so friendly and attentive. The flavor of each dish I've tried always hits the spot too. The tomato soup here is one of my favorites!

    Corned beef with fancy peppers
    Jaydee D.

    Breakfast 6.13.26 Ordered: pay to counter then ticket number, then find a seat. Got me the corned beef hash, and that was a lot of food, they use really thoughtful healthy ingredients and bf altered his to tater tots, if you're use to canned cornbeef, sodium rich foods then you stepped in the wrong resto. If you are health concious then yes this is a place who cares about employing individuals with disabilities, tho i would call it folks with service the community as one. Service is not bad, but not a place that requires button up and fancy dresses. Better be comfy in a beach attire with sandals is ok. Ambiance is colorful, open, bright with decent things of shoppi g merch hats, sweatshirts, and tees. Bathrooms is a NICE touch, im picky and it's clean!! Thank you !

    The cashier did a great job taking my order. He had a great speaking voice. The cafe is super cute inside with decor and a nice outdoor area as well. I ordered food to go. It was very fresh tasting. I bought a "no labels" tote bag from their store.

    Waffle

    Mychal's Cafe is a gem! Bright, airy, and a great spot for doing a little work, meeting with friends, or treating yourself to some yummy food! The service is friendly, prompt, and caring, as Mychal's staff includes developmentally disabled folks learning new skills, and making some of the most consistently good food in the area. The waffle was perfectly savory/sweet, and served with butter and syrup. However, the breakfast sandwich was the star! Melty mozzarella, pesto, sundried tomatoes on perfectly grilled sourdough, served with a cup of wonderfully acidic tomato soup with a nice drizzle of balsamic. I also see they're applying to serve alcohol, so I see some mimosas in my future! Please make this part of your rotation, if not for the great work they do with the community, but because it's really a great spot to eat!

    Breakfast burrito

    If I could give Mychal's 6-stars, I would. I love everything this cafe stands for -- empowering people with disabilities and giving them skills in life. We came here on a whim on a Saturday and it was such a great experience. We brought our rambunctious toddler and he was greeted warmly by the staff. The restaurant itself is really large and clean. It was a very family friendly cafe with lots of seating. After reading the few negative reviews, it's clear the people didn't really understand the mission and purpose of the cafe. Yes, you need to be a little more understanding with some of the staff, but if you treat them with kindness and compassion, they return it many times over. The breakfast burrito was large and very filling. The breakfast sandwich was made really well. And the blueberry pancakes were absolutely delicious. And the service was top-notch. We'll be adding Mychal's to our normal rotation and continue to support this incredible cafe. There's a big parking lot in the back of the cafe so parking is super easy. There's a back patio area that's really nice on a beautiful day.

    Formerly another healthy food spot, so i was surprised to find out Mychal's is located here. I heard about Mychal's through a friend who frequents this place for breakfast and i love that it's for a good cause. After ordering our breakfast, I checked out the merch in the gift shop adjacent to the restaurant. Such cheerful and pretty canvas bags, tees and hoodies! This place is cute, my food was great and the staff delightful. Parking in the rear.

    Breakfast burrito
    Dee T.

    We went here based on Yelp reviews and it was as if there was divine intervention. . This place reminded us of our special needs daughter as it is a training place for kids with special needs . .The story behind this place is heartwarming! The food was so delicious and obviously made with love. More places need to follow this model!

    Breakfast burrito with avocado
    Cindy D.

    This restaurant has good food and an even better mission of employing students with developmental disabilities to give them an opportunity to learn and develop the skills needed to help them feel empowered and included. We tried the breakfast burrito with avocado and their green smoothie, both of which were satisfying, freshly made and tasty. The tortilla was expertly toasted and inside, the eggs fluffy and well-seasoned. Be sure to try the house made salsa for an extra layer of spice and flavor. Service is efficient, friendly and very attentive. In accordance with their motto, everything is truly "made with love." Please support this wonderful small business.

    Tomato basil (bowl) + butternut squash feta salad
    Pam Y.

    Food was great! I had the Tomato Basil which was really chunky & SO DELISH & the butternut squash salad which was also really great. Parking is in the back off Vanderbilt. Super friendly vibe... they also have t-shirts/caps/baked goods for sale! My aunt took home a whole box of cookies & her daughter bought a cap. We were really tempted :). Highly recommend.

    Breakfast Burrito with Sausage
    Carolyn A.

    Mychal's Cafe is amazing. Although it has been on the neighborhood for years, I never ventured in until today. I was looking for brunch places with gluten-free options for a visiting friend and Mychal's came up. The food is delicious, ambiance is light and uplifting, and the staff is very friendly. I had the breakfast burrito with sausage (excellent flavor and the pop of green onions really lifted up the heaviness of the rest of the burrito). I particularly loved the salsa that has bright fresh flavors and a very mild heat on the back end. My friend had Mykie's Scramble with bacon, gluten-free bread, and a side of tomato bisque. Her favorites were the jam for the bread, the potatoes in the scramble, and the bisque itself (very herb-y). I also had a French Toast Latte with Oat Milk that was on the sweet side, but expectedly so given that it is called a French Toast Latte. The staff was very attentive and made sure that the order was correct, engaged us in casual conversation, and were able to answer all of our questions.

    Açaí bowl
    Audra N.

    Had breakfast here today. It's a good place for a casual brunch. You order at the counter and they deliver to your table. They have a food variety of breakfast foods and a good assortment of pastries/baked items. We got two muffins and they were delicious. I had the carrot one and tastes just like carrot cake. My daughter had the açaí bowl. The portions are large and my American breakfast came fresh and hot! I didn't love the coffee but would go back for everything else and it supports a great cause.

    Breakfast sandwich, cappuccino, berry smoothie
    KD R.

    First, the service - excellent. Everyone is so welcoming and attentive. The food is fantastic, as well as the latte and cappuccino. I really like their berry smoothie too - a real smoothie without a bunch of added sugar. The restaurant is super clean with a relaxing vibe.

    COME HERE IF YOU LOVE SPECIALTY COFFEE…read more DO NOT COME HERE IF YOU LOOK FOR: PRETTY LOOKING/LAYERED SUGAR BOMB DRINKS (nothing wrong with that though! Just wanting to help with expectations if you've never been here.) This place serves purely traditional coffee. I'm new to living in this area in LA (I come from Orange County) and have been trying to visit the coffee shops out here. So far, this is THE BEST from what I've tried so far in terms of specialty coffee. (I don't have a long list that I've visited yet) It's quite refreshing actually, to see a coffee shop that's PURELY specialty coffee. No frills or thrills, just traditional basics done well. Decor is great. I tried the emerald series espresso as a flat white (two of them) which is marketed as rare and exotic. I didn't want to read much too much into it at the moment. I was just wanting my caffeine fix. Both together came out to around $17 (oof!) They at least handed us 2 oz samples of coffee. Presentation of the drinks were done well. You can tell that they really care about the craft because we were waiting unnecessarily long on a slow day. I over heard a 'How did that pull?' while waiting. I appreciate the care.

    Drove by here a bunch of times and always had on my list to try. Today was finally the day, as I…read morewas going to try a different coffee shop, but they had no parking. I was able to nab a spot almost out front for this shop. The workers are nice. Although, the issue I had was the guy making the drinks tried to give my pastry to another customer. Also, there was a female customer he knew that would not stop talking to him. She seemed to be flirting with him and distracting him. Like gurrrrrl, stop you are gonna make him mess up my order and wasting time because he's going slower to talk to you. He already seemed to be behind on orders.

I tried their tot cream latte & their "feels like home", both iced. If you order for enjoying in shop, they give you a cute cup with a saucer & spoon. They don't put that much ice which I appreciate. The coffee is still cold! The tot cream latte is on the sweeter side, but it is extremely good. I like the flavor of the coffee, although the sweetness kind of takes away from the coffee shining through. It's good for people that like coffee but not the acidic taste from it. The feels like home is strong. That bean? Phew. Got muscles, it's strong. Very subtle sweetness. Beautiful bean flavor. Cream top is yummy. I would def order again. I appreciate them not having burnt or acidic/sour tasting espresso. That's been a common trend in coffee shops as of late D: Ambiance is nice, it's small inside & no AC so they have a fan with the door cracked open wide but still gets stuffy inside. I believe they do have WiFi don't quote me, you'll have to fact check that one. But there were people there on their laptops so I wanna assume yes.. Service was quick and standard amongst the baristas. Parking in the plaza is small otherwise there is an underground garage. There was a notice of filming or photography sign I didn't bother reading and forgot to take a picture of but it's on the glass when you go up to order.

The logo looks like Chagee, the pink is reminiscent of Molly Tea, the fake olive tree is very Cha Redefine, and if I think really hard, the white pampas grass is Toro Tea. Or maybe I'm just schizophrenic, but it was an observation that I made to everyone. I believe ages ago this used to be a Happy Lemon, so this is an insane shift and change in what they offer and the vibes. It's very chill and a great place to hang out, catch up, or study and get work done. Lots of outdoor seating and a good amount of tables and small seating inside too. Ordering is done through a touchscreen kiosk and the drinks come out decently quickly too. Very efficient and friendly service. I got the: 1) Jade Peach Oolong Milk Tea: -I got this with no additional sugar and it automatically comes with their matcha tofu. Super unique and yummy topping. -Delicious white peach flavor, creamy and strong finishing tea taste. Reminds me of all of the aforementioned tea franchise heavy hitters that I know and love. Mai can hold its own. Without additional sweetness, this drink didn't end up tasting watered down or bland, which is super impressive. 2) Double Matcha: -I got this with their organic milk and it's their matcha on top of a matcha cream foam. I got this with no additional sugar (not recommend LOL), but I wanted to really see the quality of their matcha seeing how they won best matcha award and they're somehow in the same vicinity as Yamari. -If anyone even reads my reviews, I use a scaling method to rank matcha. If it's good matcha it's either a Yamari type or an Airoma type, and this scales much closer to Airoma, but it is VERY strong matcha. -This was actually the first time my friend and I got poisoned (like nauseous) from the matcha, meaning it's super high quality and strong. Never had this happened before, so you know that this is the good stuff. It might have been since it was a long day without dinner, or we might have needed it to be sweeter, but I can see why they won their award. I took a sip of my friend's Phin Drip Black Coffee and the Bac Xiu Marble Drip Iced Latte. Delicious coffee flavor without that "sourness" that some coffees have and even without added sweetness, it's not gross and bitter. I got some coffee to go for my dad and brother and they loved it too. We need one of these in the 626. New fav for the area. Definitely want to come back to try more drinks and maybe some of their pastries too.
