Iced turon latte was the complete opposite however. I could not tell where the coffee started and the sugar ended. It was a sweet milky drink with a bitter edge that very closely resembles what you might get from Starbucks. The cherry on top--it was $9.38. That's an absurd price tag for a 16oz swill. I was also taxed. My understanding is cold to-go drinks are not taxed in CA. This was a cold, to-go order. Maybe a POS error, maybe local laws I don't know but please double check. I'm never taxed at sbx for a similar order.

Needed to mention that yesterday the employees did a great job handling a rude and disgruntled customer. Kudos to the Nook for keeping it professional.

Service was quick and friendly, and my drink was ready within a couple of minutes. I ordered an Island Matcha, which is their ceremonial grade matcha sweetened with coconut and macadamia syrups with oat milk. It was mild and only slightly sweet, and the matcha itself seemed like high quality. Definitely a lighter, refreshing drink than I anticipated. It was pretty good!

The shop is very clean, open and had plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Situated in a large lot with plenty of shopping around, this place was bustling at night and perfectly chill in the morning. I ordered a matcha latte and ham and cheese croissant. The croissant was perfectly flakey, soft on the inside and plenty of filling, the matcha was delicious, and probably one of my favorites I've had in SoCal. If I'm ever in the area this will be a spot I definitely come back so I can try other drinks on the menu!

I've tried their banana matcha (top tier), strawberry matcha (has real strawberry bits ), coconut matcha, ube matcha (seasonal), biscoff latte (off menu). All so very good! They also have many pastry options to complement your drink. All the workers are nice and are always hustlin to get the drinks out with a quickness since the line tends to be long during peak hours. Unfortunately no online ordering still due to said long line. Aesthetically pleasing and love their music choices. A definite must in Torrance!

I tried the chrome and banana lattes and I felt the banana wasn't overly sweet, I really liked the cold foam on the chrome one too! The coffee was pretty solid, the baristas were all friendly as well. My only issue with this cafe is that the line wrapped around the store, but the only menu faced the door away from the line or right up at the counter. When waiting that long, I feel it helps to actually see the menu before I order and wish it was more accessible. The one menu on the wall was not the full menu just the featured drinks which was somewhat helpful.

Luckily, my Hot Rose Matcha Latte came out pretty quickly. I ended up waiting maybe another 5 minutes for my Chocolate Banana Bread because I requested it warmed up. The matcha latte definitely hit the spot and was delicious! Between the matcha and the banana bread, they both did their job keeping me awake for my drive down south to San Diego. I'd definitely come back and try more of their specialty drinks next time!

The parking lot is pretty small, but we got lucky and snagged a spot right up front. I love the decor and theme of this cafe. Everything is flight-themed, which makes the space feel so cute and unique. The menu is also pretty big, and there were so many drinks that caught our attention. We ended up ordering the Jasmine Matcha Cloud and Earl Grey Matcha. The Jasmine Matcha Cloud was amazing and easily my favorite of the two. I'd probably get it a little less sweet next time if possible, but even at the regular sweetness, I really enjoyed it. The Earl Grey Matcha wasn't bad either, but it wasn't particularly memorable for me and was also a little sweeter than I prefer. Overall, I really enjoyed First Flight Coffee. I'd definitely come back for the Jasmine Matcha Cloud and to work my way through some of the other drinks on their menu!

The parking is a bit off putting as there are limited spaces and the lot itself is small. I was almost hit by a larger car suddenly pulling out of their spot, so be careful! My sister got a small Strawberry Vanilla Latte ($~7, looks about 16 oz) and service was efficient. I had a few sips of her drink, and it instantly made me think of Nesquik strawberry milk mixed with espresso. I thought the sweetness was at a good level, but I could see it being borderline too sweet if you have a whole drink to yourself. I really liked the unexpected nostalgia factor, and the drink itself was very pretty. The interior is intricately decorated, with little signs and knick knacks everywhere you look. My favorite part was the community resource wall! It was completely filled with flyers (some bilingual) and there was a shelf with stacks of business cards from professionals of all industries. I also spotted a "Know your rights" poster on one of the counters. In a time where new coffee shops seem to be popping up every other day, it's heartwarming to see one that is actively giving back to the community. There's abundant seating and this could be a cozy place to hang out with a friend. TikTok: @qtrinthejukebox Instagram: @qtrinthejukebox

La Cha x The Bowl is a Korean tea shop in the South Bay that also serves lunch and dinner rice…read morebowls. La Cha x The Bowl currently has a second location in Hawthorne in addition to this flagship location in Torrance. The shop is known for its viral cracking chocolate shell boba cup. [Parking]: Easy parking within the plaza. [Atmosphere]: A very casual setup for this tea shop and customers can place their orders via one of two kiosks. One thing to note is that the tea shop plays fairly loud background music so it is hard to have a conversation unless you are sitting right next to the person you are talking to. [Menu]: Yelp's top highlighted items are Strawberry Matcha W/ Milk Foam, Strawberry Taro Milk Tea, and Caramel Cheese Latte. Other featured items include Popcorn Chicken, Biscoff Shake, and Chicken Teriyaki Bowl. *** Strawberry Matcha Milk Tea (100% sweetness - $6.20): The drink was slightly too sweet for me, but the overall flavor was there. Chicken Teriyaki Bowl (Charbroiled Chicken Teriyaki + comes with white rice, chopped lettuce, macaroni salad and grilled fresh pineapple - $13.90): The bowl was surprisingly better than I had expected. The bowl had a slice of grilled pineapple and decent macaroni salad. I was actually able to split the bowl into two smaller meal portions. It was certainly a lot better than the teriyaki bowl from Flame Broiler. *** A solid 3.5-star for the drink and rice bowl. I personally slightly prefer their rice bowl over their drinks and overall this is a nice neighborhood tea shop to grab a quick meal or get a-okay drinks as there aren't too many tea shop options in this part of Torrance (closer to the city of Carson).

I especially love their matcha selection they offer so many unique flavors to choose from. On my most recent visit, they were unfortunately out of the banana cream matcha even though it was still listed on the menu . My husband had been really looking forward to trying it, so that was a bit of a letdown. However, he ended up getting the mango matcha instead, and it was just as delicious, so it all worked out. The space itself is open and inviting, making it a great spot to hang out with friends. They also offer food, which I haven't tried yet, but I've heard great things especially about their waffle dessert that everyone seems to love. Definitely planning to try that next time! Overall, this place delivers on all fronts: amazing boba drinks, great vibes, and friendly service. 10/10!

I went to Hiccups planning to get an Matcha, but somehow ended up leaving with a Fruity Booty…read more The switch happened because I was talking to the cashier. I told him I wanted to mix matcha with thai, and he was honest enough to tell me that it probably wouldn't taste the way I was expecting because they use powder, and it doesn't always blend well. I appreciated him so much for that because if I had spent money on a nasty drink, I would've been upset. So my backup plan became the Fruity Booty, and it was SO good. I don't remember everything that was in it, but I know it had mango and strawberries. The only downside was that it melted super fast. By the time we got back to the car, there was already juice collecting at the bottom of the cup. Even with that, it was delicious. I ended up finishing the whole thing, which I definitely wasn't expecting. It was so hot outside, and it ended up being the perfect refreshing drink.
