    My favorite place for matcha! If you like matcha you should try this place please, my favorite is the flan matcha, is kind of sweet and at the same time you have the matcha flavor. This is one of the few places that make matcha in the original way and people are here doing it at the exact same time that you order it, prices are fair like $8 each drink, people are very friendly

    This is a long overdue review. I usually think it's not worth it to get latte's or matcha's since I can make them at home but The Greenhouse matcha is worth the hype. I usually always get the flan creme brûlée matcha or latte and my wife gets the sea salt caramel hojicha. We can never try other drinks because our original drink is always so good and we've been here at least 15 times. Come and try this place, you won't regret it. Customer service is always fantastic as well and environment is great. Sometimes there's issues with parking but you'll find a spot and it's worth it.

    So excited to see they have Ube! We went for summer happy hour. The baristas are always kind and quick.

    5/29/26 It's a Vanilla Bean Dream type of day (matcha) TGIF Everyone Such an adorable little Matcha shop with beautiful aesthetics and just a cool vibe. Only one little round table indoors with some plants for sale and a little bit of merch like candles, whisk for your Matcha, stickers, etc.. There are 3 sets of tables/chairs outdoors to enjoy your treats the person that I spoke to, Lily is a very sweet and kind young lady who answered all my questions I was able to make the decision to finally buy a whisk for my Matcha and she gave me pointers on how to use it. The traditional whisk is made with bamboo, but it's not well utilized commercially because it tends to break off. I chose that one considering I'm only making the Matcha for myself. They use a whisk made with resin in the shop. My Vanilla Bean Dream was so delicious! I opted for Matcha versus coffee as the base, rich, deep and earthy not too sweet. It was the perfect drink for today. Street only parking available from what I gathered. I wish this shop was closer to me then I would frequent it at least once or twice a week. Loved this visit so much.

    Tried the strawberry matcha and it's delicious .how they make their matcha drinks is very authentic. Visiting here is definitely worth it.

    My favorite. matcha place so far... Lavender matcha with two pumps is just right.. Prices are resnable.

    Not like the picture

    Nothing like the pictures, confirm before payment! Staff was moody so I understand mistakes were made, but then I ask for the correct way and they claim it was made correct. The cold foam couldn't have dissolved within less than 5 min of get the drink.

    I made the life changing mistake of trying ceremonial-grade matcha once, and now I can't go back (FR, FR). Regular matcha tstes like diluted lawn clippings. Ceremonial grade matcha... one sip and I'm in full Avatar state, levitating over my latte!!!! I'm obsessed!! IYKYK!!! I finally found my holy grail at Greenhouse Matcha. We ordered a Matcha Latte, Lavender Matcha, and Strawberry Matcha, each one fresh, smooth, and dangerously spikes my oxytocin levels!!! I don't like sweet drinks so my Matcha Latte was perfectly perfect!! *Warning... parking is awful, the side lot is extremely small. Emmanuel guided us like a matcha sommelier w great recommendations. My son immediately sacrificed his full drink to the floor gods, and the team kindly replaced it. Mishka cleaned it up like a hero, and shoutout to Paloma and Francis for being absolute gems. Elite matcha!!! Must try!!!! Angel staff!!!! Definitely coming back for more of that ceremonial-grade matcha goodness!!!!!

    Let me start by saying, I went to UCI and had, what felt like an abundance of coffee and matcha places almost at my fingertips -- MoonGoat, Peet's, blk dot, Tru Bru, KIT Coffee, Krisp, and other small business shops. I wouldn't necessarily consider myself an avid coffee and matcha goer, but moving back home saddened me, knowing that many of my go-to options to indulge in coffee and tea were now 45+ minutes away. However, one of my recent discoveries was The Greenhouse Matcha on Transit and Euclid, located in a historical building from the early 1900s! It has been my go-to since, and I appreciate that they have rewards (I believe every 8th drink is free), which is rare for most small coffee and tea businesses. Their menu is simple, with unique options not found elsewhere, such as the "Monkey Matcha" containing banana sauce and condensed milk, or their unique Strawberry Matcha - Fresa con Matcha, which is different from the strawberry matcha you see elsewhere. I will say that some may consider their prices pricey, which... they're not wrong! However, considering the scarce options available within the city, one is paying for quality, quantity, and convenience. I find their mini ball ice cubes in their drinks enjoyable, and their serving sizes generous. The staff is incredibly sweet, helpful, and attentive. The inside is cute and cozy, but rather small with limited seating, providing at most 5-7 seats, with their outdoor patio providing maybe 3-6 seats. One can find matcha essentials among other things (stickers, cookies, etc.) on their shelves or cart stand located in the middle of the shop. Recently, I visited on a Sunday afternoon with my sister, to a crowd of 2-5 people waiting for their drinks. Parking was quite easy, considering the coffee shop Mestiza, located next door, was closed. This might not be the case when both are open, so expect to potentially park on Laurel Ave if parking is full on Transit Street. I ordered an Iced Vanilla Bean Dream Matcha that had a good balance between vanilla and matcha, topped with creamy foam that tasted just like French vanilla. My order was ready within a reasonable amount of time, and I was able to sit down with my sibling while we waited. All in all, a place everyone should try at least once.

    Such a cute little shop! Love that they primarily use oat milk! We ordered monkey matcha and it was delicious! I got it 25% sweet and that was still pretty sweet, so would recommend 0%. Love the banana chunks in it though. The service was friendly and fast too. So many cute things inside, plants, the matcha they use, and kim k stickers lol Will be back next time I'm in town! They have a pet friendly patio!

    Cute space, great concept... but the drinks just weren't it for me. I noticed The Greenhouse Matcha while heading to the coffee shop next door. The reviews and menu looked promising, so I was excited to give it a try--especially since I love matcha and hojicha. I've tried this place twice now. First Visit I ordered the Monkey Matcha because banana-flavored matcha/coffee is really trending and usually tastes amazing elsewhere. Unfortunately, this was one of the worst drinks I've ever had. The drink was extremely thick--not in a creamy way, but in an unpleasant, heavy way. The banana mixture just didn't taste good, and combined with oat milk as the base, condensed milk, and a cream top, it was way too dense. I took three sips and threw it away. It just did not work for me at all. I also ordered a hojicha latte for my husband (his favorite type of drink), and he didn't like it either. It was below mediocre, and he ended up tossing his drink too. Second Visit I wanted to be fair and assumed maybe I just picked the wrong drinks the first time, so I came back and ordered: Matcha Latte Lavender Matcha Latte Both were okay at best, but not something I'd go back for. To explain the matcha flavor, here's how I'd rate it on an "earthiness" scale: Think Starbucks matcha as very light, not very earthy. Think somewhere like Stagger in LA as strong, ceremonial-grade, very earthy--like a 10/10 for me. The matcha here sits somewhere in the middle, maybe around a 7/10 on the earthy scale. It's not light, but it's also not that deep, complex, umami-rich matcha I love. It's almost earthy, but not quite there. My bigger issue is the texture. With oat milk as the main base, the drinks feel a bit too thick and heavy for my personal taste. I actually liked the lavender matcha more once the ice started to melt and thin it out. My daughter had the regular matcha latte and she really liked it--gave it an 8/10, so clearly this is also a preference thing. For me, though, it wasn't my cup of tea (literally). Menu & Ordering Experience The interior is very cute and inviting. They also promote local artists/vendors and sell some of their items inside, which I really appreciate. However, I think the menu setup could use improvement: The menu is a small print-out by the register, which can be overwhelming for first-timers. It's not the most "browse-friendly" if you want to take your time deciding. Luckily, I had already looked at the menu online, but the guy behind me clearly hadn't and was overwhelmed trying to quickly figure it out. He ended up asking the cashier for recommendations. The cashier did clarify that any flavor listed can be made as matcha, hojicha, or coffee, which is helpful--but that's not obvious just from looking at the menu. Parking Parking is a big plus. There are two small lots plus street parking, so it's easy to find a spot. Final Thoughts I love the idea of a matcha-focused shop, and I think a lot of people will enjoy this place, especially if they like thicker, oat-milk-based drinks and mid-level earthy matcha. My daughter enjoyed her drink, so it's definitely a preference thing. For me personally, though, the flavors and textures just didn't hit. I wish I liked it more because the space is cute, the concept is great, and I love supporting specialty spots--but in the end, it just wasn't for me.

    Saw this place on Yelp so had to check it out. It's a cute little shop and if you don't pay attention, you can easily kiss it. The inside is super cute and the staff are very friendly. I got their monkey matcha which is essentially a banana matcha. It was delicious. 4/5

    Lavender matcha
    Megan O.

    Cute spot with indoor & outdoor seating. I've had the iced coconut matcha which was really good and the iced lavender matcha. The lavender syrup was really subtle but still good. Staff was friendly. Parking is kinda limited in the small lot next to the building but there's street parking as well.

    Review #1085~(Inland Empire, CA.)~…read more Was in the mood for either fragrance or more gems for collecting so I Yelped my way here to 'Earth Roots,' Montclair, CA. I read up all the former reviews that this mystic shop holds up its 5-star ratings. I can see how. As I entered the store, the store clerk greeted me without haste. I then continued taking my time to browse crystals and gems. I found out they sold positive words of encouragement for collecting those pretty gems, so i went for a stack of 7 piece of positive word gems. Service: 5/5~Efficient, inviting and super friendly. I'll be back if i need more candles or something in the future. For now, i'm satisfied with this newfound stack of word gems. Ambiance: 5/5~the clerk turned on relaxing music for customers to enjoy while shopping. Thought that was clever and enticing. Also, the entire store was very neatly organized making it easy to find something you need or don't need. Parking: free plaza parking available. i'll be back again soon.

    Absolutely love coming here. The customer service is great and they're always helpful. They have a…read morereally beautiful and affordable selection of crystals, candles, sage, and more. I recently purchased a few sage bundles and I love how beautiful they are (many have dried fruit or flowers tied into the sage bundle). I also purchased cleaning water for my home, and some crystals. The energy in the shop is so soft and it's really beautiful too. Great place to shop spiritual items locally!

    Just visited Frank Garcia Studio in Upland, CA. This is a must-go-place for all multia media…read morecrafters! They have paper, fabric, lace, wax seals, dies, moulds, watercolor supplies, soldering, all tools, punches, scissors, glue, and more! I bought quite a few things can't wait to use it all. Frank himself was there and greeted me, staff was helpful with all my questions. Very clean and organized. Can't wait to come back again!

    A Beautiful, Well-Stocked Studio Perfect for Crops and Creative Retreats…read more I attended a 3-day crop here for $79, and it was absolutely worth it. Just keep in mind -- it's a no-frills experience, which means you're paying for the convenience of a very clean, well-organized studio where you can craft comfortably with friends. The space is stocked with every tool, supply, and embellishment you could possibly need for scrapbooking, card making, journaling, or any kind of paper crafting. They even run a tab for you during your crop, which is so convenient when you find last-minute items you want to buy. Location & Space The studio is located in a business park, so it's easy to miss from the street. It's upstairs, but once you walk in, it's spotless and beautifully decorated -- vintage, feminine, and upscale in style. The layout and organization make it easy to find exactly what you need without digging through clutter. Experience & Staff Frank was there during my crop, and he's genuinely kind and helpful. People come in and out regularly, and it's clear the shop carries unique and hard-to-find products that keep customers coming back. I'm also part of the Journal Club and Card Making Club, and both are very reasonably priced. Whether you're crafting solo or with friends, this place is a gem. Highly recommend attending one of their crops or just stopping by to browse -- it's an inspiring space for any paper crafter.
