And the cold foam on the Matcha Cloud was perfectly creamy, seriously so delicious. The space itself is super spacious and gives off a cozy study-lounge vibe. It's pretty quiet and very student-friendly, but honestly anyone could come here, hang out, get some work done, or just enjoy their coffee. There's plenty of seating and plenty of parking, which is always a plus! The whole place also has this really cool Korean café-inspired ambience that makes it feel different from your average coffee shop. Super cute, relaxing, and just a really nice place to chill. Definitely a spot I'd come back to!

I always get their assorted ponchik because I…read morecan't pick just a single flavor -- you can't go wrong with any of them because they're all pretty good! The texture is always right and they're generously filled. It's one of their popular items, but they have a lot of other good stuff on their menu too! Their perashkis are good if you're looking for something savory (I wish there was an "assorted" box for this too for when I can't pick a single flavor). Also recommend their Bread broat - Adjarakan and Georgian Khachapuri. And then there's the cake section. Don't get me started on this. I'm admittedly biased when it comes to honey cakes but their assorted sheet cakes are SO GOOOOOOD!!! Just the right sweetness and texture, and good portion sizing (bless them for this because I'd eat the whole sheet otherwise). So yeah, if you're looking for a new spot to try or just want a break from other known big or chain bakeries, try Papillon!

The food is always fresh, tasty, and very reasonably priced, which keeps us coming back. Some of our absolute favorites are the potato pirashki, cabbage pirashki, nacho cheese empanadas, and of course the custard and Nutella ponchiks--everything is always warm, flavorful, and perfectly made. Today my husband, who is very picky, decided to try their lahmajun for the first time. He loved it! It was crisp, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. That was another win for Papillon. Definitely worth trying a variety of their recipes--you really can't go wrong here.

My favorite halo-halo spot!…read more I come to Cafe 86 all the time, and honestly, their halo-halo is one of my absolute favorites! It's probably the ONLY halo-halo I can actually finish because it's not overwhelmingly sweet. Everything blends together perfectly, and you can actually enjoy all the flavors without feeling like you're eating a bowl of pure sugar! Both their regular Halo-Halo and Upside Down Halo-Halo are SO GOOD! I also love their calamansi drinks and Cali-Mango Slush. So refreshing and delicious! The atmosphere is another reason I keep coming back. They even have a cute little mini library with books, which I love! There are always people studying or just hanging out, and it has such a nice, relaxed coffee shop vibe. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and the service is consistently good. I love having a place nearby where I can enjoy my favorite Filipino desserts, relax, and just hang out.

Such a good underrated spot for some drinks with their filipino-themed flavors and some teas!!! My…read morefriends and I decided to come here because of a really good deal and we were all saying that we should come here more often because of how good the drinks were. You can either order with the staff or order through the kiosk on the right side. You have an option to type on the text box if you need to change the milk to oat milk, for example. I always ask for just in case they do have oat milk so if you have any special requests, depending on how busy it is, might be better to talk to someone to order!!! The Tiger Tea was really delicious and was a good amount of sweet. The Mermaid drink was a fav from my group. I really liked the Milo and the Ube Milk teas. They were pretty quick with the orders so it's not too crowded inside of people waiting. It's very cozy inside and there's warm lighting and some books too for people to read. Public bathroom in the back.

I've heard about Kinrose Creamery since walking by them nearly weekly in Pasadena, and I'm so glad…read morethey made their way into SFV! Their current storefront is a cart in front of Alfred Coffee on Ventura Blvd. Parking is a tad difficult but can be found on the street - free around the block if you like getting those steps in! While they do allow samples, it's difficult to select from so many unique flavors! Alas, I had their Pistachio Konafa with Chocolate Shell and Walnut Baklava. My biggest surprise with the baklava. Having tried several baklava in the past, I often forego it because it's too sweet, heavy, and thick. While the taste was similar, I found this more soft and creamy which was pleasant. The second surprise was that chocolate shell, which was freshly frozen. I can't explain how amazed I was, I wish I got a video! For a small little cart, they really had many tasty flavors. The walls being pink really made eating sweets here very enjoyable. The staff were also very friendly and patient - 5/5 would come again.

It was later in the day, very hot out, and I was thirsty. Saw that Re: Coffee was still open, near Trader Joe's (which I needed to visit) and feeling indulgent went in. It was kind of late in the day for caffeine, so I looked at the menu and the Grapefruit Sparkling Ade caught my eye - I have a fondness for grapefruit at times. The barista warned me it might be on the bitter side, but that didn't scare me so I went ahead and ordered it. It wasn't that bitter at all, very refreshing. So if you are looking for something fruity and sparkling here, try this drink! The space is very small, so if you are looking for a place to work, you might need to look elsewhere though.

You order from an iPad and just wait until your order is ready. I would definitely come back!

The employee also recommended the Matcha Crème Brûlée donut, so I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, it didn't live up to the hype for me. The custard filling was overwhelming and overpowered the donut itself. At $7.50, I expected a better balance of flavors and a higher-quality pastry. For me, it just wasn't worth the price. Overall, I'd definitely come back for the drinks, but I'd probably skip the donut next time.

I think I've tried half of the menu here lol. My go to is definitely the New York roll and the mango passion fruit cruffin. I love that they change their New York roll flavours often. What really stood out for me was how well balanced the flavours are in their fillings, especially in the New York roll and the cruffin. They also do really well with their citrus combos like the cruffin, exotic or the mango eclair. I wish there was more custard in their fruit danish and sometimes the croissants aren't as soft, possibly a little overcooked. But the pastry on the cruffin was one of the softest and most delicate I've ever had. The macarons are also great especially the yuzu, passionate, hazelnut and raspberry flavours.
