    Banana matcha
    Julie R.

    My first time checking this place out after having seen a tik tok post about it and I was very pleased with my experience here. Upon entering you are greeted with a very aesthetically pleasing interior with plenty of seats and benches to wait for your drinks or have a quick conversation with friends. I did see some people studying in here so chances are they might offer WiFi but I didn't ask. There's a menu right in front of the cashier, kind of wish they had paper menus to look at while you wait in line or if there was a bigger menu hung up somewhere just so you don't stall while figuring out what to order in front of the cashier. I had to try their banana matcha with oat milk and it was so yummy, a little bit earthy tasting but I am barely getting used to the taste of Matcha. My friend ordered the energizer drink and it definitely tasted more bitter than sweet if you're into that. Drinks are served without a lid but you can grab one in the front. I didn't try any of their desserts but they looked so appetizing and I would definitely go back to try them. I recommend this spot for sure.

    Waited 37 mins for our drinks while seeing NUMEROUS people who ordered after us get theirs. After 25-30 mins of waiting, had to ask where our drink was. We got a "oh, give us a few mins" - either they forgot our order - my drink that's called "satisfied" is tougher to make than the rest? - seguro drink tasted watery Still puzzled how we got bypassed by people who ordered after us.

    This place has good drinks! I would recommend coming here! It is a good place to get a quick refresher and it's a good place to get a small dessert too! I usually get a Matcha Einspanner with oatmilk and it's really good! It's not watery at all and you can taste the matcha flavor. It wasn't overly sweet too. I tried almost all of their small desserts and honestly i think the only one I really liked was the coffee one. It was not too sweet but everything else was. I had to kind of throw a lot of it away because it was just wayyy too sweet for me. I have a big sweet tooth but it seemed like it was all white chocolate and the chocolate shell they used was just so sweet paired with a sweet cream. It was a big too much. Overall I recommend the drinks but maybe not the small desserts. It was nice to try them though.

    "comforted" cookie butter latte

    i arrived at the morning mood a little after 12 pm on a sunday, so the cafe was pretty packed. still, i was able to find a spot in their parking lot and received my order within 10 minutes. "comforted" cookie butter latte( espresso, biscoff spread, cold foam, choice of milk): 7/10, 50% sweet was sweet enough in my opinion! while the space is cozy, seating is limited, so it feels more appropriate to grab and go. the price is a bit steep for a caffeinated drink with a cream top ($7.50), but i was able to sip on it for a couple of hours.

    The Morning Mood is a very aesthetically pleasing cafe. Their neutral colors and decor give an earthy vibe to the space. I decided to grab a coffee Sunday morning, which is usually peak time but to my surprise there was no line. There were many people enjoying their drinks inside and outside the cafe. I decided to order the honey lavender latte which was made fairly quickly. The latte was delicious. The lavender in the latte was very prominent and the coffee flavor was very light. The honey was very present in this drink and tasted yummy. I tried to order an additional drink for a family member who it not having caffeine at this time and they did not have the option for decaf which was a little odd as most places do. However, their pastries look delicious and I will be back to try other drinks on their menu.

    This place has been going viral, so of course I had to check out what all the hype was about. I didn't realize it actually replaced What a Peach seems like the same owner, just a different name. When I walked in, I immediately noticed how modern and clean the space is. I ordered the "Playful," which is a banana matcha. It was good, but definitely on the sweeter side. Customer service was great, but my only complaint is the wait time. There was only one person making drinks, and it got pretty crowded. They could definitely use more staff I honestly felt bad seeing how busy it got.

    I decided to stop by and check this place out while on my walk. It's a cute little spot with both indoor and outdoor seating and some cool coffee options. The day I went there, it was super packed. I imagine because they are fairly new and everyone in the neighborhood is curious about them. Luckily managed to find one table way in the back to sit at. There was also a 15 minute wait to get my drink. I think it's because there were so many people waiting on their orders ahead of mine. I believe the guy I spoke to when I placed my order was the owner, he was very nice, and mentioned it was a bit of a wait. I didn't mind it, so I decided to wait. I ordered the date latte for myself and the lavender latte for my dad. Both were delicious. I also noticed they had a selection of desserts. I'd definitely be curious to try them out the next time!

    New coffee shop in the neighborhood. I stopped by to get coffee while in the area. Parking was hard to find, long line to place an order. Very friendly and hard working staff. They constantly apologized for the wait time which took over 15 minutes to get my drink. Most of their desserts were sold out. There were six pieces left. .. ........Now the coffee ... I ordered the Locked In and couldn't even finish it. After a few sips l realized I'm drinking water with a splash of coffee. It was watered down and had no coffee flavor at all. I was very disappointed. I understand it's super busy and no one seemed to mind waiting but please make sure you are serving decent coffee drinks. I paid over $7 for the drink. I'll probably try something else next time I'm in the area and update my review. Hoping it will be a better tasting coffee. ...

    Honestly so obsessed with The Morning Mood! As soon as you walk up, the vibe is already so good. They even have "Good moods start here" on the floor right when you walk in, which is so cute and accurate. The inside is incredibly aesthetic, clean, and welcoming. I couldn't resist taking a quick selfie in their gorgeous "you look good in this mood" arch mirror. It's the perfect spot to just chill, relax, or get some quick work done. I got the banana matcha latte and a chocolate croissant. The banana matcha latte is an absolute masterpiece. It has the perfect layered look, a beautiful rich green matcha color, and it's topped with a delicious, crunchy crumble that pairs perfectly with the smooth banana flavor. The chocolate croissant was also amazing: flaky, buttery, and packed with chocolate. Service was fast, friendly, and super welcoming. If you want incredible drinks, delicious pastries, and the perfect morning vibe, this is absolutely the spot. 10/10 recommend!

    New coffee spot in the area, which replaced whatapeach. Apparently they are the same owners. Went in on a sat around 2pm and there was a line to order. The girl in the front was really nice and helpful. We ordered the comforted and demure (really cute names for the drinks). My complaint was the wait time, it took about 15 min to receive our drinks. However, I do appreciate that we were told when we placed our order so it wasn't a surprise. I also wish they had pastry options available. I guess they were sold out because the case was completely empty. Drinks tasted good, the comforted was a little sweet but I would ask them to adjust sweetness next time if possible. There are also table inside and outside to sit at, neutral colors and a casual vibe.

    A charming new coffee spot in Granada Hills, The Morning Mood has taken over the space that used to be What a Peach, wondering what happened there or if it's the same owner. The vibe is cozy and inviting, perfect for a morning pick-me-up or a relaxed afternoon coffee break. The coffee is excellent smooth, well-balanced, and clearly made with care. I ordered the ENERGIZED - which has brown sugar cinnamon & it's a shaken espresso I also appreciated the friendly, attentive service Whether you're grabbing a quick cup or settling in with a pastry and a latte, The Morning Mood is a delightful addition to the neighborhood. A definite must-try for coffee lovers in Granada Hills!

    Beautiful atmosphere! It has such a clean look to it without feeling like you're sitting at a clinic or a hospital. I tend to not like places like that but this place feels so comfortable! I've come here twice in a row already (yesterday after class and today with a friend). I had the playful yesterday which had the perfect taste of banana without it tasting artificial which I enjoyed a lot. I tried the cheerful today and it had a perfect matcha to strawberry puree ratio without one overpowering the other. I also had a very delicious tasting croissant. I opted to get the plain one which was honestly one of the best croissants I've ever had. A helpful hack: dip the croissant in the matcha. It adds such a delicious flavor to it!! (I dipped it in the strawberry one) The service is great the employees were super sweet I was helped out by a man at the register today and he gave great recommendations to my friend. Very communicative! I think I found my go to spot for matcha after class! I'm yet to try their coffees but I'm sure they taste just as amazing as their matchas!

    Iced cookie butter latte, almond milk, and an add shot. PHENOMENAL

    Mike and his entire staff are a ray of sunshine. I expressed it was my first time and they quickly helped me choose based on my flavor preference. I'm a total coffee snob and their coffee - from their espresso, to house made syrups, and unique cold foam. Just outstanding. Nowadays coffee is expensive and this time, mine was worth every penny. If you're in the area and want a really good iced latte, come here!! Inside is a total vibe btw. Clean, modern; I was able to enjoy my lunch break and recalibrate for the day.

    Dear Hubby is addicted to this bakery's offerings. We have one of their cafes in Simi Valley, and…read morehe seems to make a run there either every week or every other week. I am grateful that their style seems to be to use less sugar than other bakeries. You can enjoy the sweetness without being overwhelmed by the sugar content. Last weekend we were spending the day with our grandchildren. Adored Grandson was in town from points north for a long weekend. DH had prepared brunch for the family, then we hung out. Later, AG was craving a coffee drink, so the oldest and youngest generation hopped in to the car and went out to get drinks and desserts. Sweet Granddaughter was having a blast, getting attention from 3 of her favorite adults, PLUS getting to pick her own sweets. What more could a six year old want? She's pretty discerning about baked goods, and even got her own tray. We had to pare back some of her selections. AG got his java jolt, and I was able to order a decaf crafted beverage that satisfied my taste buds. $48, four drinks, and multiple pastries to go later, we were headed out the door. Whew! The layout of this particular location is a little odd. Though one can eat in, it doesn't feel like that welcoming of a space. It's mostly about the cases and shelves of baked goods, as far as how the floor plan is set. The counter service people were helpful with answering questions on the options for the drink orders. We did share some of our treats with the parentals at home. The prices at this bakery are very fair. We did get quite a few items.

The first time, the store was messy and the tables dirty. I thought maybe they had a rush hour and hadn't had time to clean. This time, same situation. Tables were dirty, but I thought to myself "we can just wipe them real quick" but lord be hold, no napkins were available at all. We thought ok fine, we'll go find a park to drink our coffee and eat our pastries. We asked for forks. The staff responded "we are out of forks, but we have knives" Um hello? Knives? Really? You are a whole bakery with tables to eat inside (it's literally an invitation) and no forks? How do you offer knives? Terrible. I don't think I will come back. Thankfully for us, their next door neighbor (Ihop) spared a couple of forks for us. Management could do better.

There was a young man at the counter who welcomed us with a wonderful smile. He said his name is Said (pronounced Sa-eed) and asked if it was our first time here. We said it was, so he offered to give us some samples of their most popular bake goods. He said it is made of light custard and it's called soft cake and it is traditional pastry from his country in Uzbekistan that his mother bakes all from scratch. In Asia we also don't like overly sweet cakes so we thought it sounded to fit our taste preferences. And we loved it after trying! My mom said it tastes very similar to the cake she had back in Seoul in her childhood she misses fondly, but she could never have that same taste. Just a little sweeter. But the custard and texture of the cake is just the same. We also got the eclair. And it was pretty good too. But definitely recommend the soft cake!! Sooo yummyyy!! I also got the strawberry cold foam matcha latte and my mom got a small americano coffee. She said it's the best coffee she had in a cafe. Of course superb compared to Starbucks or any other coffee franchise. She says American coffee shops always burn their beans so it tastes burnt, but this place roasted the beans just right. And we also loved the strawberry cold foam matcha. I don't know how, but it tasted like really strawberry was in the drink!! My mom said it's the best strawberry milk she ever had here and in Korea! And she wants to order again when we come by next time. Overall a very enjoyable experience. Food and drinks were all prepared with such care, but given at a reasonable time. Some of these cafes take forever to make your drinks, even Starbucks makes you wait 20 minutes! These other coffee shops make it seem like they're doing some complex chemistry experiment how long it takes for just a drink! But this young guy he makes the drink in under 5 min and it tastes 10x better anything those other coffee shops make, but in less than half the time! I really thought maybe it was really hard making drinks, but this young dude makes it look like a walk in the park, the speed and ease he cranks out the drinks. I think Uzbekistan people must be just built different! and he was also so kind and pleasant taking the time to explain and answer all our questions. Some of these other places wouldn't even bother or make it feel like you're pulling a nail from them the way they grimace. He was so nice we wanted to give a tip, but he even said he didn't want us to. He'd happily accept just our enjoying the food and drinks and would appreciate if we left a review for his cafe. just had to leave a review. Especially after how nice he is. And hearing his story and how it's a family run bakery with the mom baking and son making drinks and running front counter. And an authentic European bakery!! Wow! Aren't we so glad they moved into our neighborhood! A Real quality cafe I didn't even know what I was missing until I stepped into this little shop by mere chance! I Will definitely come by again. And anyone else who discovers this little gem would be so lucky and blessed as us!
