    Thai Green Milk Tea, Hokkaido Milk Tea
    Vivian T.

    I came here with my sister to try out the local boba shop! They have a wide variety of drinks as well as cake selections. As an avid Boba drinker I would recommend getting less sugar since the 100% is fairly sweet. Today when I went into the store they were also having a buy one get one free deal for select drinks on Thursdays!

    Tiramasu, Cold Earl gray with Tiramasu foam
    Callista O.

    This place popped up in my grubhub options today and I just had to try. I ordered a cold earl gray tea with tiramasu foam as well as a slice of their tiramasu cake. Both are really good and not too sweet, just right. The only negative for me is that the drink is not cold enough so I'll have to put it in the fridge for a little bit. But order arrived fast, no spills, the drink container is really cute and made of hard plastic (i think it's reusable). Will definitely order again and try other items in their menu.

    Came to this spot because I was craving boba and cake. Small cute shop! The drink I got was good and the slice of Oreo chocolate cake hit the spot. There's a good variety of drink options to choose from. Hokkaido milk tea with boba - I could have cut the sugar a tiny bit but flavor was on point. Boba was perfectly cooked as well! Oreo chocolate cake - perfect sweetness for me! Soft and fluffy. I devoured that piece and could have had more.

    Such a cute shop and all her drinks are Gram worthy to post!!! As well as being cute they are delicious. I am all about supporting small businesses. So come through and get you a fancy tea.. and hen in doubt pinkies out

    One of the cake balls.

    Outdoor seating area has about 6 seats. Indoor seating area is kinda small/narrow. Street parking. We got the cake balls - very rich however not overly sweet. They're all red velvet with different decorations/toppings. It comes in a set of 4 for $5. We also got 2 matcha lattes ($5 each) - not bad. Cozy little spot we ended up checking out while at the La Verne car show today 11/20/21.

    Basque Cheese Cake

    People who work there are super sweet, always work very quickly and will give you recommendations! Sometimes can be too sweet but I just found out you can adjust the sweetness if you ask.

    Cinnamon Milk Tea

    I believe this is one of the only few good food places open in Old Town La Verne, there's a small variety of drinks and desserts to select from. However, I believe it's too pricey. The boba deserves to be at least $4.50-5.00, NOT almost $7. The Cinnamon Milk Tea is pretty good though, it reminds me of an Auntie Anne's Cinnamon Pretzel. Yeah, there are plenty of cinnamon drinks out there like horchata, but this tastes like they literally blended the pretzel into the drink. All I wish is that they could give the option to choose what size, because I can never finish my boba drinks and end up wasting it. Last time I was here, I bought tiramisu but I felt like I was going to choke from the amount of cocoa powder on the top layer. That's probably just me LOL, but I would be down to go here again for sweet tooth craves if I ever visit Old Town La Verne.

    Green tea w/ honey and bunny butter cookie
    Britny C.

    So delicious! My family and I stopped in and ordered 2 green tea w/ honey and 1 almond milk tea w/boba... both very good perfect sweetness and flavor, The boba also tasted good. The cafe was cute and clean and the service was also wonderful. The case of small baked goods looked fresh and beautiful, We will definitely be returning customers!

    Potted Plant Milk Tea
    Daniele P.

    I've been here twice and the drinks are delicious. I ordered the succulent strawberry foam drink that had tasty jellies in it. It had buttery foam that was unique and flavorful. My son ordered a galaxy tea which was the best tea we've tried thus far. You can taste the peach and a fusion of other flavors. We also got the potted plant milk tea which made things convenient if you are vegan. Plus, they always have excellent customer service. We look forward to returning.

    Hot chocolate & Red Velvet Cake
    Lady O.

    Delicious red velvet cake. Moist and sweetened just enough. Beautiful art on the hot chocolate.

    Kitty W.

    Super cute! :-) I had the matcha raw chocolate cake, which was rich and flavorful without being too sweet. The portion sizes for all of the cake slices in the window were generous; definitely coming back soon to try other flavors!

    Disappointing Oreo Milk Shake

    Stopped in after having dinner in downtown, thought it would be good since all the photos online look appetizing. Wrong. I carefully watched as my Oreo milkshake was being made and was disappointed to see a cup full of ice and milk go into the blender and scoop of Oreo dust thrown in. What? That's it? By the time I made it to my car I already had watered down milk.

    Sea salt oreo cream cake!
    todd r.

    this cake was perfect to cap our night off. the cake was light and fluffy. we can't wait to come back and try the Boba and coffees! don't sleep on this place!

The tortilla chips, avocado, and egg mixed together was perfection. The avocado toast was also good and the dressing on the side salad was amazing!! Coffee was also very good.

    Went here because of the amazing reviews…read more The parking lot is right next door which is convenient but the location is a bit confusing. It shares its location with a bar so the signage has both names. It is super cool inside. The vibe is chill and homey. The girl at the counter was helpful. Unfortunately, I wasn't super fond of the drinks. The menu felt limited. I couldn't find a specialty drink I loved so I wanted to opt for my go to but they didnt have just a vanilla latte without the sage (part of their vanilla). I didnt want something herby. So I tried their banana latte. I was a bit bummed. The banana taste was a bit artificial and whatever crunch top they put for it wasn't very good. It would have been nice to have a caramelized crunch or something. Coffee is such a competitive market and there are some incredible spots in the area. Wishing the business a ton of luck and glad they've got patrons that love them!

    5/29/26 So glad I stopped by! Got the Cafe de Ola latte…read more Kudos to Jagruti (saw her video), this place is small & off the beaten path (for me). I love cafe de olla and as they say, it didn't disappoint. I got an exceptional cup of cafe de olla latte, thanks to Elijah, who was a very welcoming and and friendly young man who help me at the counter. He answered all my curious questions. It is such a small shop. There are no seating arrangements inside the small shop that has a lot of merchandise from T-shirts, sweatshirts, to coffee beans to mugs, etc.. from the looks of the mugs that are featured here. This shop has been in business for a decade, more power to you. I hear vibrant and cultural music that is faint enough for you to be able to carry a conversation, I really love that. This is right by the Metrolink train tracks street parking noted and there appears to be a public parking that's free along first street this shop is in the corner of first Street and Main Street. . This is another shop. I wish that would be closer to me, and I would be visiting it very often at least once or twice a week if I could help it at all. Another wonderful experience. Thanks again, Elijah, tell your mom to follow me on F$An€! and I will follow back. I plan to check their IG to see their pop ups. The merchandise is stunning Please support small businesses

I also ordered a Cinnabon which was horrible. I saw it go into the oven as soon as we ordered. When our drinks were ready, we went up to grab the drinks and asked for the Cinnabon. Staff said the Cinnabon was still in the oven. We noticed a box at the pick up station but didn't think much. That box ended up being the Cinnabon. The Cinnabon was very very stale.

    Coworker's Paradise in North Pomona! (sorry if it sounds like I'm writing a Zillow listing, but I'm…read morejust trying to get this to show up in search results if anyone else is curious LOL) OUTLETS: Plenty of outlets!!! There's a set of steps with pillows on each step with a block of about six outlets beside them, and a really comfy, sinky couch (plus an ottoman and two comfy looking armchairs and a big table in the middle) with a set of two outlets on the wall and a star shaped power strip sticking out of the ground with six outlets coming out of it. There are also regular tables and it seems like there are outlets beside them as well. WIFI: The wifi is open (no password necessary), even though they have a password listed where you pick up your food (it's just Sanctuary Coffee). I tried to use one of the locked ones (the only one that made sense), but the wifi password didn't work, so I'm not sure why they have one listed. Regardless, albeit not the fastest wifi I've ever used, it's incredibly doable. I have been working remote here for 1.5 hrs and had almost no issues. MENU: For LA, relatively cheap. I am not a coffee or tea drinker, so I got the peach Italian soda, which was yummy. I believe it was about $4.89, which is not bad at all. I went to And Destroy in the Highland Park-ish area, and I believe an Italian soda with cream (cream is free here) was maybe $7-8. I'm used to paying more for drinks because the specialty (non coffee and tea) drinks are usually pricey, but this was one of the cheapest things on the menu. Also, you can claim a free pastry with your email and first name on their website (it sends you a voucher, just show the email). I got the banana bread, which was fine. I would've gotten zucchini, but it wasn't chocolate chip zucchini. ATMOSPHERE: Not too loud, the music is nice and chill and not very loud. There's cute art on the walls and homey looking lamps. It's the quintessential living room coffee shop, perhaps even rivaling Republik Coffee in Burbank in comfiness, noise level, aesthetic, and price (which is a bummer, because I likely will never be back - we just happened to be in North Pomona today, and I have no idea when we'd ever elect to drive this far again LOL). PARKING: It's in a little strip mall, so there's an actual aboveground lot with plenty of free parking (at least I think it's free, I got dropped off so I didn't pay much attention). Overall, I would highly recommend this cafe to anyone looking to cowork in a cozy atmosphere for relatively cheap in the North Pomona area. It checks all of my boxes except distance from home. I hope this review helps someone, because I always try to find this information on Yelp about new places to visit and it can be very difficult to find! BATHROOM: I believe there are two single person bathrooms like not stalls just one bathroom. Cute art and aesthetic inside, there are hooks on the walls for your stuff. The air dryer was not very strong and there were no paper towels or seat covers, but other than that there was a nice faucet and cute nice soap like homey soap you'd see in someone's house, and the lock worked fine.

    Very relaxing atmosphere (at least when I visited). Customer…read moreservice was great! Coffee and desserts were very tasteful. I will definately be back to sample other desserts.
