But the real standout for me was the avocado toast--it was honestly the best avocado toast I've ever had!

I also tried the Immunity Boost smoothie, which was exactly what I needed and tasted great. The customer service was super sweet and welcoming, and the interior is so fun and colorful.

I asked for cinnamon on top, something I've requested many times before without any issue, including having it added on the side when needed. This time I was told it wasn't possible due to company policy, and when I asked if it could at least go on the side instead, I was told no again, with a comment about cameras watching. I was happy to pay for cinnamon it but she refused. The employee told me she was the manager, which was surprising since I hadn't seen her before and have never had this kind of experience at this location. I've worked as a restaurant manager myself, so I know how these policies typically work, and this felt more personal than an actual requirement. This was an inconsistent and needlessly rigid application of one, especially for a request as small as a sprinkle of cinnamon that had been accommodated before. I'd expect a manager, of all people, to go above and beyond for a longtime customer, not make a small request feel like a confrontation. As someone who tips and comes back often, I'd appreciate some clarity from management on what the actual policy is, and a little more flexibility for something like adding cinnamon to my bowl. I'd love to keep coming back, please have this issue addressed.T

The only thing I've noticed is that the pizza sizes have gotten a bit smaller, but the prices are still very reasonable. Each pizza is definitely perfect for one person.

What an incredible hidden gem in Glendale! This coffee shop is so much more than just amazing coffee--it's an experience. The atmosphere is warm, creative, and full of energy, making it the perfect place to relax, work, or hang out with friends. Their coffee is delicious, fresh, and made with attention to every detail. What really makes this place unique is the live music vibe--they have instruments available for customers to enjoy, including a piano, guitar, and drums, which creates such a fun and interactive experience. Whether you're a musician or just love listening to spontaneous performances, it gives the café a special charm you don't find everywhere. Great drinks, welcoming staff, and a space that brings people together through music and coffee--definitely one of my favorite spots in Glendale. Highly recommended! read more

A great coffee spot for studying or catching up with friends over a latte. The ambiance is warm and inviting, with plenty of comfortable indoor and outdoor seating. The café features an impressive selection of pastries, teas, lattes, and coffee drinks. Service is efficient and genuinely friendly, which adds to the overall experience. The iced vanilla latte and tiramisu latte paired perfectly with our pecan bar and cheesecake slice. The Dubai strawberries were a standout--large, juicy, and full of flavor. Everything was reasonably priced, making it a spot worth returning to. read more
