    The Tokidoki collaboration is so cute. The inside of the place is very spacious and comfortable, I love how energetic the staff are! They were all so kind and friendly, which is the kind of energy we enjoy. The place overall, seems like a good place to chill and enjoy a coffee. As you enter from the inside, you wait in line. Sometimes the line is crowded, sometimes not as much. The cashiers greet you, ask for your order then after placing your order--you wait until your name is called and wait again for your order. Wait was not as long, but we did run into a couple of issues during the wait. However, the Baristas immediately resolved the issues before we could address them, so excellent service points for The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. The drinks we recieved: Two Oreo drinks, and one Chai. I ordered the chai, my brother ordered an Oreo. One thing we both decided: we didn't like the drink as much. My brother said it tasted like water and I agreed. The drink was refreshing, when you don't fixate on the particular taste or when you are thirsty and will drink anything in front of you. I say that 3 is a perfect rating for the experiance as a whole, because part of me enjoyed the ambiance and service--only to be let down by the actual coffee itself. Maybe this isn't their bestseller, which is fair. But thank you Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf for the experiance.

    Found this place open late on a Saturday night, was so happy I caught them before closing. Had great and welcoming service from Carlos and Sage. Sage prepared an excellent Americano. They were both so welcoming and upbeat, just minutes before closing on a Saturday night shift, and I really appreciated it. Plenty of parking. Indoor and outdoor seating. Always classy yet relaxed and laid-back atmosphere. Another 5-star experience at yet another Coffee Bean location.

    I almost cried... it's the simple things! I *heart* this location for their service to us customers!

    Visited today 2/7/24 ordered through the app and just want to say the crew here is truly amazing. At this time I gotta HIGHLIGHT Libby... so kindhearted... if I'm late picking up my cold drink she puts in the frig for me until I arrive. Today, Lib put a little heart on my mobile receipt and I've been having a tough couple days so... it's the little things that truly matter and I definitely appreciate the service I receive here... hence why I keep returning! Thanks guys for all you do!!

    I sat in for a few to use the free WiFi and I noticed they have a free activity calendar of what's available to the community on the wall. Also picked up an order while there. A group of 3 people were having a meeting about small business I over heard. Ambiance needs some cleaning but overall it's a chill place to get on your laptop there's tables and the staff was nice.

    Horchata Ice Blended drink
    Silvia G.

    Hot coffee is great. Wait time depends but I have not waited more than 5 minutes for a drink. I wanted to try something new today and ordered the horchata ice blended. Got it and it looks nothing like the picture on the app. Not sure if I had to customize it myself. Not very great wont be ordering it again. & not sure if the gentleman handling the orders today was having a bad day but he was a little rude when I asked him if that was my drink the one he just randomly placed on the counter.

    Regular  White Chocolate Latte w/Oat Milk

    It's been so long since I've stopped in for a cup of Joe. I was greeted by the cashier and Barista as I made my way to the counter. Decisions, decisions lol I ordered a Regular, White Chocolate Mocha Latte with Oat Milk. Delicious but super sweet, I forgot about that. I'm so used to drinking just shots of espresso. Overall my drink was good and the Customer Service was Great!

    Caramel Ice Blended drink
    Lisa L.

    I always come by to this location when I'm in LB an din need of coffee. The employees here are very helpful, patient, and kind. The drinks that I order from here are always fantastic. I usually get a Matcha Oat Latte and a Ice Blended Caramel and it is always so delicious. They always make the drinks well and they even fill it more than it needs to! I highly recommend this location if you want to grab some coffee or tea. The ambiance inside is perfect for studying and there are plenty of seats inside this location. There is a convenient parking lot outside that usually has parking.

Short drive through, extends onto Carson st. The wait time was maybe 30 minutes. They were slammed for sure. I ordered my usual horchata matcha. First sip. Milk. Shake, shake, shake. Another sip. Milk with a taste of matcha. It was NOT my horchata matcha that I always get. I was extremely saddened by this. I threw away the drink. I'm going to stick to my pch girl from now on. If I was pregnant I would be throwing the biggest fit. I still did, but imagine. Ugh my craving was not satisfied. If you want to sit inside good luck, that parking lot has like 4 spots and I'm sure the employees use them. Otherwise street parking will be your only option. They have an updated menu with flan & banana items at the time I went 05/22/26. It's attached in my photos to view.

They changed the name subtle enough to avoid a lawsuit, but the changes in the menu and the quality of the drinks are far more drastic, and it's not for the better. Gone are the traditional teas and sesame jelly that made Hechalou so famous. These options are replaced by cheap imitations of Starbucks' frothy drinks that sound good on paper but taste like iced piss with sugar. The drinks are excessively sweet, a mortal sin by Asian standard, and they have a generic taste that might as well have one item on the entire menu. Alas, to get a sip of the old favorites, now I have to drive across town instead of stop by after work. I am glad that I got my many trips here before the old guards died, and it's probably better for my hemoglobin A1c in the long run.

Honestly, it takes me right back to my childhood and the pastries my mom and I used to enjoy together. The guava croissant is also pretty yummy! I also buy their espresso beans because, you know, I can't come here every day lol. And if you buy a bag of coffee, they give you a free drip or iced coffee, which is such a nice little perk! One thing to keep in mind: if you come on a weekend morning, make sure you have a little extra time. The shop itself is pretty tiny, so they only allow about 5-6 people inside at a time, and the line can form outside. That said, they have tons of outdoor seating and even some additional indoor seating right next door, so there's still plenty of space to enjoy your coffee.

I provided them with care and professionalism, so I never expected to find myself dealing with a situation like this involving someone I had previously helped. About two weeks after the incident, I saw her and attempted to approach her to address what happened. Instead of having a conversation, she quickly left. As a Black man, it was especially concerning to feel as though my attempt to simply address the situation could be perceived or portrayed as me being aggressive. I wanted a conversation and accountability for the damage to my propertynothing more. The matter has been reported, and I sincerely hope law enforcement handles it appropriately.

First it's 7:30pm, planned on ordering a matcha and the person at the register informed me that there was "No coffee or tea after 4pm" so I choose to order a non alcoholic beverage and maybe something to eat and cashier or owner, whoever this person was tells me if I plan to work because it becomes a "laptop free zone" after 4pm. Odd behavior to tell someone what they can and can't do at an establishment considering it's called a coffee AND wine bar. Maybe this is something to advertise on your yelp and website but a "laptop free zone" after 4pm is pretty ridiculous for potential customers who were just looking to eat and work. I almost feel like he just told me that because I was going to order a salad and a non alcoholic beverage and wasn't planning on ordering much. As the other 1 star reviews mention "pretentious behavior" so it's either the cashier or whoever it was is being pretentious as others mentioned or RACIST... Kinda odd to dictate what I do on my own accord while I'm a patron at your establishment. If I ordered food and a drink but chose to open my laptop, are you going to ask me to leave? Doesn't really seem customer centric. Considering that I've worked on my laptop at dine-in restaurants, it's pretty odd behavior to display. Also, considering that this is not a club, and there's no live music, and there were only 3 people sitting in there, I think I would have been fine to sit there quietly in a corner with my laptop. 1 star for the experience and weird behavior. Like I said it's either pretentiousness or racism but weird behavior nonetheless.
