So today I came across the same barista Miranda that I gave the one star review and the experience…read morewas completely different. I still stand on my review for THAT day, but today we had an honest and open conversation which I appreciate knowing that they are all super busy and under pressure. Also, she was under no obligation to have but initiated it herself. I've always respected the baristas at Starbucks or any service industry for that matter. We did not discuss what or who was wrong or right that day, but shared how that experience for both of us impacted us. We live each day for the present day. We don't live for the past and we can't guarantee tomorrow will come. But we do choose to make it the best, to be kind or whatever we decide, no matter what is going on in our lives. TODAY the young lady in front of me was a completely different person, she was kind, lighthearted and was open to hear me. As I listened to her. Her energy was bright and not dark. My experience today was matched with every other positive experience at that location I have had over the years. With that said, I'm adding the 5 stars :) thank you Miranda, I always look forward to my Starbucks run, it's a small life treat and always made better when greeted with kindness and respect. Besides my daughter loves all the breakfast items. She can never decide if she likes the Tomato Mozzarella panini, the red pepper egg white bites or the Spinach feta wrap better. Also, for the 4 people that had previously private message me with some horrible hate comments after my initial review. You can tell some created an account that day to reach out and verbally attack me. You are better than that. I know your intentions were well meant, and you wanted to protect this young lady. But you were not there that day. Only she and I know what transpired. she is also more than capable to take care of herself and she eloquently proved that to herself today by willing to have an open honest conversation with me today. Miranda and I had an experience that initial day, obviously not great for either of us, but you chose to create accounts and reach out to me with hate. This speaks volumes of you.

I've always passed by Tierra Mia whenever I'm in El Monte, and I finally had the chance to try it…read morefor the first time today! They have a drive-thru which is very convenient, but I decided to go inside, and fortunately there was plenty of parking! I arrived on a Tuesday morning, near 10 AM, and it wasn't crowded at all since there was only one customer besides me. The space is pretty quaint, but it added to the charm of the cafe. Customer service was nice as the cashier greeted me warmly. I ordered a small, iced Horchata latte and a Tres Leches Muffin (total was $10.25). I will say my order didn't come out that quickly, considering there wasn't many customers inside. Surprisingly, the customer who ordered after me received his drink first, but I'm not complaining as my drink came out shortly after. Horchata latte: 3/5. I thought the sweetness was perfect! Coffee flavor was smooth and pleasant. However, the horchata flavor was a bit weak, I wish it was more prominent. Overall, though, a tasty drink! Tres leches muffin: 4/5. I absolutely love tres leches cake, so I was super intrigued by how it'd translate into a muffin! It ended up being super yummy and was moist! It tasted just like tres leches cake but with a muffin texture lol. Although I would've liked it if more of the muffin was soaked with tres leches; some parts of the muffin weren't. My first experience at Tierra Mia was good! I definitely recommend giving them a try!

Stopped by Mobar Coffee and really enjoyed their creative drink menu…read more The banana matcha coffee was fun and unique, with a noticeable banana flavor that made it feel playful and different from the usual matcha drinks you see everywhere. The horchata latte was a standout -- smooth, comforting, and nicely balanced with just the right amount of cinnamon sweetness. I also tried the almond croissant, which was flaky and satisfying, making it a solid pastry to pair with the drinks. Overall, Mobar Coffee is a great spot if you're looking for inventive flavors and something a little outside the box. I'd definitely come back to try more of their specialty drinks.

Oh my goodness. Starbucks who??? I may have found my new…read moreFAVORITE coffee spot. I have been on a quest to try different coffee spots in my surrounding areas, but this spot may bring me to a halt (lol). I didn't realize this little spot was here until a few weeks ago that my husband and I stopped by the brewery (after many times) to watch a game and have a few drinks. That's when we noticed the coffee bar. Service was friendly and they do have a good selection to choose from. I stopped on a Friday morning for fuel (coffee) before running errands, and went with the strawberry horchata cold foam. I was pleasantly surprised. It was perfect and not overly sweet. I also got a pistachio crescent, warm, and was delicious. I stopped by the following morning, and went with the pumpkin spice chai latte, which was perfect! And pistachio crescent to share with my son, which he ended up taking, despite him not having a sweet tooth for baked goodies like I do. Highly recommend this little spot!!

I visited on a bright, sunny Thursday afternoon, so the vibes were already good and it got even…read morebetter after my first sip of the Spanish latte. I was debating between that and the Mexican sidecar but the barista kindly informed me that the latter was on the sweeter side, so she preferred the Spanish since it was less sweet. I opted for that drink for the same reason and she was right. I also tried the Biscoff latte and I don't know if the syrup is house-made, but it was also good with the right amount of sweetness. It's very cool that they roast their beans in-house, and although I'm no coffee connoisseur, I thought the quality of the espresso was great. The only thing is that all the syrup sat at the bottom, so be sure to mix it in well. There's no indoor seating but plenty of outdoor seating on the turf to sit and relax.

It's not overly sweet, so you can actually taste the flavor, which I love. The matcha is also really good. I actually prefer it over their neighbor who "specializes" in it. Service was friendly, though I did notice it seemed like a new crew. The manager used to always be there, and the previous staff was a bit more chatty, which made the wait feel quicker. This time the energy was a little more low key, but still perfectly fine service overall.
