LFTD recently made an announcement that they are being evicted by their landlord and will close…read moredown this brick-and-mortar location by the end of this year (December 29th, 2025). A week before the announcement was made, I came here to try their famous blue tortilla breakfast burrito. [Parking]: There's a free public parking structure located one block away from the coffee shop (6738 Comstock Ave, Whittier, CA 90601). [Atmosphere]: Super crowded on Sunday & I was not able to find a place to sit. I ultimately ordered my breakfast burrito to-go. They also have a section of cafe that sell vintage clothing. [Menu]: For the signature breakfast burrito, they actually have 6 options - classic breakfast burritos (bacon - $16.50), Prime Steak (grass-fed prime steak $20.50), the Ultimate Burrito (grass-fed prime steak + avocado + bacon), Chilaquiles ($15.50), Chorizo ($16.00), and Vegan ($16.00). They also sell their cold brew cafe de olla in giant plastic bags that look like IV drip bags at the refrigerated section. [Ordering]: Customers can order at the cashier counter or order via kiosk (they use Toast). I reviewed their breakfast burrito options at 12 PM and they ran out of classic breakfast burrito. I ended up with prime steak breakfast burrito instead. Unfortunately I waited 45 minutes before they had my order ready and I could tell other customers were not too patient with their orders as they kept walking up to the pick-up counter & checked the ordering status. *** Prime Steak Breakfast Burrito (grass fed prime steak, scrambled egg, Monterey Jack cheese, crema, pico de gallo, tri-colored peppers, hash browns - $20.50): Unlike other breakfast burrito I have had at other places, this breakfast burrito had blue tortilla. The portion was a bit smaller than I expected, but chewy steak + crispy hash browns + roasted peppers + red salsa = one delicious and s-tier tasting breakfast burrito. *** While LFTD serves one of the best 5-star worthy breakfast burritos I have ever had in LA + Orange County, I have to take off a star due to extremely long wait time on food order. Please do yourself a favor and place an online order at least 30 minutes ahead of time if you want to try their breakfast burritos ( https://www.toasttab.com/local/order/lift-6701-greenleaf-ave ).

Everyone in the establishment were super friendly and it was well kept in there! No complaint on that :) They have two kisoks, but if you want any adjustments to your drinks then you would have to order in the front. Drinks: Royal milk tea (3.5/5): It's not bad as it has a hint of chocolate. It's not a basic house milk tea, so if you're ordering this thinking that, then just know it's slightly different! Taro milk tea (5/5): My boyfriend absolutely love this drink. For him, it was probably the best taro milk tea he has ever taste. Hello, this is now the boyfriend speaking. I am not exaggerating, in my opinion, this was the best taro milk tea I've ever had. The honey boba paired with it was delicious and I would recommend anyone in the area to give it a try!

This morning, they had no bread available, and when I asked about it, the response I got felt dismissive--like I was asking something unreasonable. Unfortunately, the coffee was also undrinkable, and this hasn't been a one-time issue. On a previous visit, I mentioned that the coffee tasted very diluted, but instead of addressing the concern, I was told that no one else had complained. That response felt discouraging and dismissive of my experience as a customer. I've genuinely enjoyed supporting this shop over the years, but the decline in quality and customer service has been hard to ignore. Sadly, this will likely be my last visit.

Ethnos is an amazing coffee cart located inside of the Original Flower Market in LA…read more I came to the flower market in LA to purchase flowers for my wedding. I stumbled upon Ethnos. While there were quite a few orders in front of me, the barista worked hard to make sure my drink was made. I did wait about 15 minutes for my coffee but I was worth the wait. I ordered an iced horchata latte. The latte itself had a good balance of flavor and is perfect for someone who does loves caffeine, but not the overbearing coffee flavor. Ethnos is located in the flower market, so it can get busy on weekday and weekend mornings. We did not have to wait in line, but did wait for our coffee. There was only 1 barista working, but he did a fabulous job. Ethnos is a MUST try place in the flower market. Enjoy a nice latte while buying beautiful flowers!

Ethnos Coffee came to two of my company events recently, so I got a chance to try them. They had a…read morenice portable setup at each event. I was surprised on how efficient they were despite serving a very large group. It takes a few minutes for them to make the drinks. The first time I tried the sweet cream cold brew. And the second time, I tried the salted caramel latte. The cold brew was just what I needed to start the event. At the second event, this was more of an outdoor setup. It was a very hot and sunny, so I got the an iced salted caramel latte. This was on the sweeter side, but exactly what I needed to survive the heat. Fingers crossed that they continue to come back! I'll definitely give Ethnos Coffee a visit if they have a brick and mortar in the future.

That said, once we finally reached the window, the experience turned around. We ordered an iced banana horchata latte and a regular iced horchata latte, and both drinks were worth the wait. The horchata flavor was smooth and well-balanced, not overly sweet, with a nice cinnamon note that complemented the coffee instead of overpowering it. The banana version added a subtle, natural sweetness that made it feel a little more unique without being artificial or heavy. Even with the long line, the quality of the drinks stood out. If you're planning to stop by on a weekend, it's probably best to expect a wait, but at least you can count on getting a solid, flavorful coffee once you make it through.

Unless I want nothing but milk in my drink. Make sure to come during the weekday if you want your coffee made right.

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.

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!!
