Avomango Sweet Dew Mochi Barley Burst Mochi Mango
Rachel M.

Highly recommend this spot and their top drinks. So good! I love the mochi options and everything tastes fresh and authentic! There was a bit of a wait but it's worth it for the great options.

Super Orange: Jasmine green tea, fresh orange juice, and orange slices.
Jordan B.

A SoCal local friend recommended 3CAT Handcrafted Beverage while I was in LA, so naturally I had to give it a try. I went with the Super Orange, which is made with jasmine green tea, fresh orange juice, and orange slices. The first thing I noticed was how strong the orange flavor was, but not in a bad way at all. It was still sweet, refreshing, and tasted like they were actually using real oranges instead of some super artificial syrup or flavoring. You could definitely taste the freshness. It was a really solid drink, especially on a warm LA day, and I can see why my friend recommended this spot. I'd absolutely come back and try some of the other drinks on the menu next time I'm in Koreatown.

Mochi Barley Burst
Jasmine D.

Was craving some late-night boba and was glad 3CAT was open! I tried the Mochi Barley Burst (less sweet), and it was so yummy. It's a black milk tea with soft mochi topping and a barley popping boba, which make for such a fun texture! I love anything mochi, so this drink was perfect! You order at one of the kiosks, and service is pretty fast. There's limited seating, but it feels more like a grab-and-go boba spot. There's also a parking lot attached to the plaza, which is convenient, although it seems like it can get pretty busy during peak hours.

Boba Upgraded! The Mochi Barley Burst Is an Absolute Must-Try. 3CAT Handcrafted Beverage has become one of my new favorite boba spots! This is a tea-forward spot that makes all ingredients and toppings fresh from scratch daily. Their most well-known unique topping is the barley popping boba. They use a real-chewy highland barley grain that gives off a nutty, earthy and milkdly sweet pop that makes for a unique texture. The fan-favorite drink is the Mochi Barley Burst which pairs a floral black milk tea with the popping barley and fresh handcrafted mochi. The tea does not have any artificial syrups and uses an organic milk with a bold tea base. The handcrafted mochi is super fun to have with the popping barley because it is pillowy and velvety. Make sure to mix it well together, so you can enjoy the whole drink for all its features. I like the ambiance of the shop. It's a smaller shop with some seating area. You order your drink at the self-service station. There's quite a few staff working to make the drinks, so we got our drinks in less than 10 minutes. I adore 3CAT and I would highly recommend visiting if you haven't already!

Mochi Mango
Kathleen W.

The drinks here are delightfully fluffy and cloudy for their mochi and the mango hits the spot so much! I mainly wish they had more drink to mochi ratio as we quickly got stuck with the mochi at the end.

Seasonal beverages here are excellent - the peachy strawberry glow was delicious. Parking lot is crowded, inside is large enough and even has a few seats (but not a ton), service is quick. And the drinks, from the few I've had, have been excellent. Vibe has the usual one wall that's more decorated in an effort to be more Instagram friendly, and you know what, I can't knock it.

Avocado smoothie & matcha smoothie
Tiffany H.

I feel like this 3Cat location is better than the other locations. We ordered the avocado smoothie which came with crystal boba and mango puree, and we also ordered the matcha smoothie which came with their signature mochi. Their drinks are consistently good and you can really taste the fruit and the freshness of the smoothie. We received our drinks within 10 minutes of ordering. This location can get super busy though, especially on the weekends right after dinner. We've waited upwards of 30 minutes during that time. Would recommend ordering online if you decide to get 3Cat after dinner on the weekends! They have some seating inside the store but it can get pretty packed. There is parking in a parking lot with other shared businesses. Although it costs around $8 per drink, I think it's a nice treat.

Food: 5/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 4/5 I m glad to find out that one of my favorite boba shop is in Korean town. I just ordered my favorite drinks, barely burst milk tea and mochi mango. I ordered through online and pick it up since parking could be very challenging around this area. They have shared parking lot and I was allowed to park briefly for pick up.

Mochi Mango
Angela P.

Ordered the mochi mango drink with 50% sweetness and whipped cream. Loved the fresh milk flavor of the cream paired with the mango's tartness and chewy mochi which was pleasantly unique and unforgettable. The store is clean, bright, and compact. There's a kiosk to order drinks. They have cute cat decorations and plants. If you feel like treating yourself with a special drink, this is the place.

Tawn V.

Ordering is automated here. Our wait time was displayed as ~12 minutes and then it jumped to 20 mins for some reason. Two drinks came out to $16 with tip which is a little pricey in my opinion. It's a nice treat every now and then but definitely a splurge. They also messed up and added popping boba in my friend's drink even though he wanted it plain.

Kind of a dirty location :( but the drinks are great.. they taste good and look good. The customer service was very nice, which I appreciated. The parking situation is pretty horrendous though. Overall not a bad spot, just wish it was a little cleaner and easier to park.

Mango mochi with jelly
Connie S.

I get the mango mochi drink and the mochi layer is delicious. The wait however can be very long! I recommend ordering online and picking up. Parking is very difficult as well and seating is very limited. Take out is the way to go.

Jasmine Greeon Milk Tea &  Cheese Berry
Kiana L.

I've been trying different 3CAT locations lately and something I've noticed is that they seem to specialize more in fruit teas and fruit-based drinks rather than milk teas. This time we ordered the Jasmine Green Milk Tea and the Cheese Berry drink. The jasmine green milk tea was good and refreshing, but I do feel like their fruit drinks are where they really shine. The Cheese Berry had a really nice fruity flavor and the cheese foam added a creamy, slightly salty contrast that made the drink more interesting. Personally, I'm more of a milk tea person, so fruit teas aren't usually my go-to. Even though I can tell their fruit drinks are well made, they're just not my personal preference. If you enjoy fruit teas though, this would probably be a great spot to try because that seems to be what they do best. The shop itself is clean, bright, and very open, which makes it feel comfortable when you walk in. They use self-order kiosks, which makes ordering quick and easy, and the staff there were also really nice if you needed help. Overall it's a solid spot for drinks, especially if you're someone who enjoys fruit teas.

Do the milk teas use non dairy creamer? Asking because I'm allergic to milk and milk alternatives (oat, soy, almond, cashew, macadamia, lentil).…

Hello, we do provide milk alternatives, but there are still a very small percentage of dairy in the creamer, thank you for asking!

Lots of interesting choices. The drinks were well balanced and not overly sweet, so you could actually taste the coffee instead of having it covered up by syrups or other flavors. The coffee itself was smooth, with no harsh or overly bitter aftertaste. I also liked that the flavors complemented the coffee rather than overpowering it. Loved the honey lavender matcha and peanut coffee. The drinks were beautifully presented too, so they looked just as good as they tasted. Overall, a really enjoyable coffee experience and definitely a place I'd come back to try more drinks.

And they are so sweet and do not rush anyone, you can stay here as long as you want. My friends and I WFH so we decided to Work From MemoryLook (WFML) one day together. I'm glad we did! Great pastries in the morning, i had the cremme brûlée donut which had tons of filling, and the pea foam matcha latte which was fantastic. And I had an EXCELLENT chicken Chipotle wrap at lunch that was recommended to me by the gentleman working at memory look. I'm not certain where these wraps are made. Another gentleman would bring them from the building in the same complex. I LOVED my wrap. They have a ton of seating outside too but there aren't any outlets out there so it's harder to WFH out there unless you're fully charged. But was great for separate meetings we all had to attend. The photobooth was fun but we were so thrown off by it taking 8 photos, we had no idea how many poses we would have to come up with hahaha. I would definitely come back here anytime!

Parking is also pretty convenient with a good amount of spaces available. When I visited, though, there weren't many desserts on display. For drinks, they don't offer a double matcha option, but you can order a matcha latte with Einspänner cream instead. The drink itself was good, although I found the prices a little higher compared to other matcha spots I've tried. Service was on the slower side, and it took a while for the drinks to come out. The staff were okay, but not particularly friendly. (+) Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, convenient parking (-) Pricier than other matcha spots, slower drink preparation, and no double matcha option

It pains me to give this 5-stars but truth be told, they deserve it…read more Let me preface: I am not from LA, I don't live in LA, I am not an LA POS. But Community Goods is often touted as staple POS behavior. Naturally, I scoff at the idea of driving to a ritzy part of town to wait an hour in line for coffee and Hawaiian roll sandwiches. And yet, that's exactly what we did. Given my preconceived notions of LA culture, I envisaged biting into a gluten-free, flavor-free, low-carb, lean protein, overpriced slider. I'd walk away disappointed, a bit poorer, and still hungry. Yeah, nope. First off, they had espresso tonics. Dead ass simple item but surprisingly hard to find on café menus. I absolutely love them. Note to self: look into making them at home. On a hot day like today, their espresso tonic hit heavy, almost made me want to grab a 2nd one (if it weren't for the line). But their slider stole the show. The photos don't really do it justice, and yeah it's not the fattest thing in the world. But bacon, eggs, and cheese on a roll is so simple, so greasy, so delicious that you really can't go wrong. Ok yeah you can get that literally anywhere. But something about how haphazardly and dgaf it's assembled, plus whatever the hell sauce it comes with, makes this slider just a touch elevated. The inside had fun little trinkets to window shop. Once you're in the little shack, the line doesn't feel as daunting. There are benches, you can look at the menu, you can shop a bit. The workers all had these sick black canvas (or was it denim?) overalls. I wonder if those are for sale? Seating is sparse, they've got tables along the sides and back, or you could eat in your car. The shack is small, don't expect to linger after getting your order. I probably won't be back. but all things considered, yeah this spot is hyped up heavy, but now I understand why.

I got the matcha einspanner and it was really good! Leans more on the sweet side in my opinion…read more(makes sense given the cream top). Staff was very welcoming and line moved quickly - I would recommend going on a weekday if you can. There's limited seating in the back but customers came and went quickly so no one was standing around waiting for too long. The best thing we had was the egg sliders - the brioche bread was amazing and the sweet sauce and side aioli (?) went really well together. Make sure to get there before 12pm on the weekdays if you want to order it, as they switch menus offerings. The chicken sandwich was also really good but would recommend the egg sliders if you had to choose.
