It shares a large parking lot with lots of neighboring stores, but there is almost always a convenient place to park. Second - they have a nice selection of drinks and great service. You might find some of the drinks at other shops too, but they make some slightly differently. They have a few creative few drinks too, and some of the unique ones work! The baristas know best, so I recommend just asking them for drinks they'd recommend. Third - very accommodating. There are seating arrangements both indoor and outdoor. The outdoor area is fenced and shaded, so it feels like a safe extension of the joint. There are restrooms for customers but it's on the other side of the cafe. If you're lost, just ask one of the employees and they'll do a better job describing how to get there.

The environment was clean, laid back, and had nice subtle music. This is my first time here and I ordered an iced matcha latte with oat milk and turon (banana brown sugar syrup). I was interested in the syrup since it is part of my culture (turon). The syrup had a very strong artificial banana flavor which wasn't that good, but I got used to the flavor as I drank it. I would not order the same syrup though. I tried my boyfriend's mocha latte and it was really good! Still not sure of this place but I'll come back another time to see if their other drinks are good. They also provide a stamp card to get a free drink.

It was kind of late in the day for caffeine, so I looked at the menu and the Grapefruit Sparkling Ade caught my eye - I have a fondness for grapefruit at times. The barista warned me it might be on the bitter side, but that didn't scare me so I went ahead and ordered it. It wasn't that bitter at all, very refreshing. So if you are looking for something fruity and sparkling here, try this drink! The space is very small, so if you are looking for a place to work, you might need to look elsewhere though.

That means parking is a pain in the butt. There is a parking lot behind the offices, but Mon-Fri the prices are absurd.

It's easily a place where you can spend hours if you manage to grab a table. Great place for conversation, hangouts or work. Service is great. Because the store is small, the employees are either pumping out drinks during busy hours or getting creative with their time when it's slow.

The parking is street parking with a meter, but you can definitely park at a nearby public lot and walk a bit! My reason for deducting a star is because the drinks themselves were a bit bland. We ordered the iced Aurora Latte and the Raspberry Hibiscus Tea. The Aurora Latte had too much milk and I couldn't really taste the coffee itself, and the Raspberry Hibiscus Tea was watered down. I would come back for the ambiance, but not necessarily for the beverages themselves (it's possible that other items on the menu are good and we just got unlucky with our order!).

Walked in around 11am today and was instantly greeted and they have kiosk available but the gentleman behind the counter said he could assist me when I was ready. I ordered a drink from their summer menu the cherry vanilla latte iced, its bomb and next I have to try their version of the dirty Dr. Pepper with espresso and I wanted their delicious BLTA but they were out of avocados ='( so I went with the grilled cheese with bacon and added tomatoes and their salsa.

This review is long overdue…read more I've been a House Roots regular since they opened their SFV shop many years ago and frequent the bakery as well. This location is the newest (only about a year or so?) of the three. Each store has a similar and yet distinct style/focus. This shop is located on the ground level of an apartment/leasing space, so if you're not looking for it, it can be missed/mistaken. Parking at first glance also seems difficult but don't worry, there's plenty in the parking garage behind the shop/ below the apartment building. The shop itself is beautiful! Compared to the other two locations, this location is most spacious; There's outdoor seating as well and indoor seating. It's pretty family friendly and equally accommodating to students/working professionals who need a place to do some work. There's a grab and go section, for those who need a quick bite as well as some food items- pastries and burritos. Overall, the environment is pretty relaxed and chill. As far as drinks go, I've tried several- everything from the drip, pour overs, espresso shots, americanos, sweet lattes, and pictured, both matcha and einspanner dreams from the last time I came with my husband and parents. Pricing is fair but most importantly, all their drinks are good! The espresso is good consistently which in turn makes all their coffee drinks delicious. All the speciality drinks are not overly sweet and well balanced, unless requested. Specifically from the last visit, the vanilla cream on top of the einspanner/matcha dreams were to die for. My husband, who isn't a coffee drinker also mentioned how good the matcha was, even with almond milk (he's lactose). If you want to venture out/explore something out of the usual drip or americano, I recommend the einspanner or matcha dream drinks! Besides the good coffee, all the Houseroots locations are set apart by their hospitality, and this shop is unparalleled. Every time I've come to grab a cup on my way to visit my parents or for an afternoon pick me up, all the baristas have been welcoming and warm. Northridge is always a treat, can't wait to come back when in the area!

I had an uncomfortable experience at this location. I needed to use the restroom first, but an employee knocked multiple times within a 15-minute span, despite me responding that I was in there. On the second knock, I was even asked if I was okay, which made me feel rushed and uncomfortable. There were other restrooms available, so I don't understand why this was necessary. Ultimately, I left without making a purchase because the experience put me off. I hope the staff can be more mindful of customers' privacy in the future. read more

The service is good and I have nothing to complain about the employees here. The thing is there are many homeless people staying here and I know one of them regularly steals chips on shelf. I'm not comfortable with criminals and I assume most people feel the same way. I don't know if a manager level of personnel looks at a review on yelp but I want to warn that a black guy regularly steals chips and employees are not aware or just overlooking what he does. read more
