    POV you're driving near the Anaheim target and you're drawn towards a calm little coffee shop in the neighborhood. First thing you see is the pastry display, minimalist menu, and wooden benches and tables. You're greeted right away and your order is in. Immediately you receive your tasty warmed up banana bread and shortly your iced Bianca latte and iced Hojicha drinks are ready. Banana bread is fresh and moist , the yuzu citrus flavor pairs well with the creamy latte, and it's strong. It's served beautifully layered, unsure about your adventurous choice, you stir it with the straw for flavor maxxing success. You walk out energized ready for a beautiful day ahead.

    Ssum Coffee is a great locally owned shop for your next matcha run! This spot is located in a plaza with a decent amount of parking spots. Inside, they have a nice interior with a solid amount of seating. Wifey and I got the Strawberry Matcha and Yuzu Matcha Tonic and we enjoyed our drinks. All of the staff here are super friendly and welcoming. Shop local and support API-owned businesses!

    Continuing my cafe hopping journey! Parking: They have a small parking lot. Finding an open spot can be easy. Ambiance/Environment: They have a small indoor space with a decent amount of indoor seating and minimal decor. It's more so a social coffee shop rather than a studious coffee shop. The reason why I say that is bc you can't really get much done on small, short tables and hardwood seats. I enjoy the music; definitely a coffee shop ran by woman (iykyk). Service: I wasn't greeted when I entered. The worker just looked at me. She was nice though, and I think she was still training. Both workers are knowledgeable about the menu offerings. Throughput was quick after ordering. Drinks & pastries: I tried their most popular drink - Lotus Cream Top. This is a latte with Biscoff butter topped with a cream foam and Biscoff cookie. I looove anything cookie butter. I really enjoyed this drink! The Biscoff flavor was not shy. The foam was thick, but it didn't have much flavor. I heard great things about their cookies, so I'll have to come back to try them! Pricing: Prices are a bit more than average. I'd visit once in a while. They offer rewards through Cash App.

    This place was so cute and aesthetic inside! The coffee and matcha was extremely good as well. I ordered the cookie butter latte and my roommate ordered the seasonal matcha corn latte. The lotus latte was amazing and the sweet corn matcha was good as well, but we thought it lacked on the corn part of it and tasted like a regular matcha. The service was extremely fast and the staff were so friendly as well. They let me bring my doggo in which is always a plus we'll be back

    Finally stopped by Ssum Coffee after seeing it all over my feed, and it actually lived up to the hype. The shop is on the smaller side, but that's part of the charm. Clean, cozy, and minimalist without feeling overly trendy. The staff were friendly and patient when explaining the menu, which I appreciated since there are quite a few unique drinks to choose from. Reviews from other visitors also frequently mention the welcoming service and cozy atmosphere. I tried the Strawberry Matcha, and it was easily my favorite. The matcha flavor was strong enough to come through, while the strawberry added just the right amount of sweetness without tasting artificial. The Yuzu Sparkling Ade was refreshing and perfect for a warm day. Both drinks seem to be customer favorites for a reason. What I liked most is that the drinks didn't taste overly sweet like a lot of aesthetic cafés. Everything felt balanced and made with care. The pastries looked great too, although some popular items tend to sell out early. Is it a place I'd drive an hour for? Probably not. But if you're in Anaheim or nearby, it's definitely worth stopping by. Good drinks, relaxing vibes, and a nice alternative to the usual chain coffee spots. Rating: 8.8/10 Would come back for the Strawberry Matcha and to try more of their specialty drinks.

    The cafe itself has cute interior and a logo/branding that reminded me of harucake. Workers were friendly and there were a couple regulars that dropped by for a quick grab when I was waiting to order. Matcha Latte was okay a bit sweet even with half sweet. Matcha flavor was also a little jade-y but not bad. Wooden chairs and little stools to do some works with laptops too. Their signature menus were coffee menus, so want to try the coffee next time!

    I've been wanting to try a bunch of new coffee places to find my new favorite and this one might take the cake! The inside of the cafe is sooooo cute with such aesthetically pleasing decor! The dining area is pretty small with about 5 little tables and chairs and maybe not the best spot to study but still cute! Theres a good amount of seating. The menu has your standard hot and iced lattes, coffee, and matcha but still a good variety of items. I got an iced matcha which tasted great and was not too sweet. Drinks came out fast and the two front employees were friendly :) I'd love to come back soon and try a Spanish latte or their signature matcha! They also sell espresso beans, hojicha powder, and even matcha powder!

    I have always wanted to check out Ssum Coffee, so I decided to take my friends (who drove down from SGV area) to try Ssum together! First off, the dog logo is sooooooo cutteee!! Ssum Coffee is a super cute coffee shop located in Anaheim with adorable decors and social atmosphere. They have the cutest decors like mirrors, trinkets, and posters. There are seatings, but can busy at times! People were socializing while others were studying/working. Their menu is pretty straightforward and offer coffee base and matcha base drinks. My friends got strawberry matcha lattes, while I got the corn double matcha. I will have to say that the matcha is STRONGGGG!! You can tell they use good quality matcha. I couldn't taste much of the corn puree in my drink, but it was still good! My friends' strawberry matcha though!!! That was so good!! I love their strawberry puree that they use!! 100% would comeback again for their strawberry matcha!!

    Lotus Cream Top Latte

    Ssum Coffee was a cute little place that we had noticed on Yelp! We decided to stop by because it was fairly new with a few reviews. The parking here was quite cramped. There's sports to park to the left side of the building, but parking in front is harder without an exit or entrance, too. Upon entering, we noticed the cute, whimsical decor of the shop! They had seating with a tree right in the middle. The menu was posted towards the left side and near the cashier. I had waltzed in, knowing what I wanted to order thanks to other Yelp reviews. I ordered the Lotus Cream Top Latte. It was perfectly creamy, strong, and had a cookie on top. My fiancé ordered the Yuzu Bianco and he enjoyed the taste; it was refreshing. My brother ordered one of the Valentine's Drinks with a peach top and peach brew. He also really enjoyed his drinks. The employees here were friendly and willing to explain what their drinks were. They were quick to make them and it was delicious as well. For a new cafe, I think it was very well run and decorated. They have a variety of drinks and offerings. They also had different cookies and pastries. If you're in the area, I'd recommend making a stop here to try it out!

    - the interior felt like a cafe in Korea! All the decor was adorable - staff was super nice and explained the menu well - we got the matcha latte and yuzu bianca (latte with yuzu and a cream top) - the matcha was solid! A great quality for $6 which is rare these days! The yuzu bianca was indulgent and yummy as well but I would get less yuzu extract in there next time as it got too overpowering and sweet

    Kevin E.

    Great atmosphere and ambiance. Service is great and the staff are so nice! Also dang, drunks r hot. It's so good lol. Cookie too! Got the matcha yuzu tonic and Dubai cookie. So good!!

    Matcha latte and strawberry matcha latte
    Janeva G.

    Yummy latte! The matcha had a nice earthy taste. The strawberry matcha was delicious as well. Definitely something to get if you want a sweeter matcha latte. I also got an Ube cookie and it was nice and moist. I loved how it was not dry. Overall nice place to sit down and enjoy a latte!

    Love brew (peach cold brew and peach cream top)
    Jhannell O.

    Ssum is a cute little cafe tucked in an unassuming plaza~ I went late March and they still had Valentine's seasonal drinks up which was nice because that's were the drinks I wanted to try. I got a Love Brew which is a peach cold brew with a peach cream top. The peach flavor was really strong. The cold brew itself wasn't acidic and didn't have a strong taste. So I thought the cold brew itself wouldn't be strong, but that's where my taste buds fooled me. The cold brew itself gave me such a productive day ahaha. The staff was super kind and gave me space while I was thinking of what to order. My drink came out in a timely manner. I wouldn't recommend working/studying here because it is small. I feel like you could totally make it work though if you don't mind a squeeze.

The café itself is cute, welcoming, and conveniently located along a main street on the ground floor of an apartment complex, with street parking available nearby. It stayed consistently busy during my Thursday morning visit, so it can get pretty lively and a bit noisy. If you're planning to study or work, there are plenty of outlets, which is a huge plus. Just keep in mind that most of the tables are fairly low and small, so I found the bar seating to be the most comfortable option for getting work done. The staff were friendly and welcoming from the moment I walked in. They made sure to acknowledge everyone entering the cafe, even during the rush, and were happy to answer any questions about their drinks. Overall, I think this cafe is definitely worth checking out. Whether you're meeting up with friends or just looking for a cozy place to spend an hour or two, it's a great spot for a casual hangout.

The cafe hosts various pop-up events like autograph events, artist alleys, and collabs. [Parking]: There are three paid parking garages nearby and free street parking is available if you are lucky enough to find an available spot. [Atmosphere]: The cafe section has a dark and mysterious vibe while the merchandise shop is brightly lit. The shop sells various cute pins, stickers, and sealed packs for trading card games such as Magic The Gathering. The shop hosts local Pokemon and Magic The Gathering tournaments. There are various board games for customers to enjoy and there is even a mini mahjong set. Visitors can sign up on the website for gaming table reservations (minimum is 2 people and max is 16). Customers can also rent a portable charger here. [Menu]: Yelp's top recommended drinks include the Health Potion (Desert Pear Lemonade), Stamina Potion (Lychee Lemonade), and Mana Potion (Lavender Lemonade). The cafe also sells chicken nuggets, fries, bagels, sundaes, and alcoholic drinks (21+). *** Health Desert Pear ($4.95): The drink was ready within a minute and it was a fruity lemonade. Lemonade has never been my jam, but the drink was not bad. *** A solid 3.5-star on lemonade with a bump up for the vibe. It is a nice nonalcoholic date spot for people who are also into the fantasy genre.

    Coming here during events is always a nightmare. We went for the yaoi event, not even a big name…read moreevent this time, and were stuck waiting in line up until the shop was almost closed. The girls behind us were given a sign to say they were the end of the line and even then a completely different employee had to announce to us all that they had just let the last group in and if we were still in line none of us were going inside. We aren't even sure that this person was a Requiem employee and not just someone like a volunteer helping out with the event as when we tried to ask questions they kept telling us they didn't know as they didn't work inside. This isn't even the first time this has happened at a Requiem special event. As seen in other one star reviews and even my own personal experiences they have somehow never learned from their mistakes and refuse to do anything to make these special events easier for attendees. It would be one thing if they were still a small independant cafe who had never done something like this before but they regularly work with big name fandoms and do official collabs with things like Undertale and Digital Circus. There is no excuse at this point for them to be so incompetent when it comes to line management and getting people in and out who get stuck waiting outside for hours. Also I'm pretty sure this is the owner sitting at the register and playing games while the other employee had to be the one to break the bad news to us.

I ended up getting two different drinks but didn't really want to stay there any longer than I had to because of the unwelcoming feeling. Don't know if it was the uniform or not. The drinks were good but the matcha was all milk, hardly and matcha flavor. I wanted hot but came cool. I didn't want to request it to be heated up just incase they wanted to do something to my drink. Don't know if I would go here again. I've been to another location and did not have this experience. So try it out yourself. The other location I went to was different, maybe cause I went through the drive-thru and my uniform wasn't seen until later.

The employees were nice and our drinks came out quickly. I got the Iced Matcha Latte with Oat Milk and Vanilla Bean Syrup based on other Yelpers' recommendations, and I really enjoyed it! The vanilla bean was a nice addition to the matcha, especially since it has a slightly more bitter, grassy flavor on its own. Overall, it was really balanced and something I'd order again. My partner got the Iced Vanilla Latte, which was also well balanced--not too strong or bitter and not overly sweet. A little simple for my taste, but still good! The menu felt a little limited and took me a minute to figure out when I first looked online, but I think this is one of those spots where you find your favorites after a few visits or looking into what others enjoy. I'll definitely be back to try something new!
