    Upside down halo halo
    Christina H.

    The upside down halo halo was a perfect blend of sweetness even with all the sweeter components like ice cream, coconut jelly, and boba. I love it when a server is confident behind a dish and this was the number 1 recommended drink here at Cafe 86. They were also willing to make adjustments as well like making it less sweet (but you don't have to! We drank it as is and it was the perfect level) Overall, this was a pleasant visit and you'll see us here again! It was also relatively busy during dinner time on a Saturday, which is good to see.

    Ube fan alert. Come check this place out. I came by to try out a drink and boy was it delicious. I figured I would try something with Ube since that's their specialty. The service was great and loved the music choices. So I had the iced Ube matcha latte and it was sooo good. I can't wait to try something else next time. Thumbs up to this place!

    Great ube halo halo. Service was great and staff was clear on his recommendation. Surprising it was much better than we anticipated and we finished the whole thing! Great balance of flavors and not too sweet. Variety of texture and toppings inside Nice and cool inside and good amount of seating. Highly recommended!! Especially if you love ube or want to try a new dessert in Valencia.

    I am so happy that the SCV has a Cafe 86! This cafe is focuses on Filipino flavors such as ube and calamansi (imagine an orange and a lime had a baby) as well as traditional Asian teas you would find at boba spots but without the boba. In the earlier years, they had ube lattes and blended coffee drinks but I am happy to see an expansion of their menu offering coolers, espresso drinks, iced coffees and halo halo. I came here on Mother's Day to get my mom some ube crack cheesecake instead of flowers. Good ube taste and not too sweet. Skyflakes crust are made from crackers popular from the Philippines give it a slightly salty, buttery crust. This location reminds me a lot like the Northridge location where it is located in a shopping mini mall. It has tons of parking which is the exact opposite of Northridge's location. Service was efficient and the people behind the counter were attentive. I had my dogs in the car so I ordered from the parking lot on their site using the Toast platform and waited until I can walk in to pick it up. It was convenient but I didn't get a chance to really pick up the vibe of the place. There are a good amount of tables available and I noticed more people were coming by to pick up orders. For me, I would come here mainly for their drinks. These coolers are much more delicious than a certain popular chain. This particular visit, I had ordered the Jasmine Calamansi, and it was so needed in this 91degree heat! Normally, I would order an iced sea salt coffee or an ube latte. The desserts here are fun as they use Filipino ingredients to give a new take on familiar tastes. For example, Milo is a chocolate powder drink that is used for the Milo cupcakes. Skyflakes is a brand of crackers that they use in the crust of the cheesecake. Other flavors they feature are ube, calamansi, turon My persona favorites are the ube flan, ube and turon pop tarts, crinkle cookies and the ube tres leches. Special note: halo halo here is made with a different interpretation and I personally love it. Growing up, I am not a huge fan of halo halo. My family put way too much of the jellies and canned fruit. I like Cafe 86 because it's way less, less milk and I like the frosted flakes for texture. I like the upside down halo halo because they used ube ice cream as a base and in size mini.

    Ube butter bar

    In the area. It's hot out. I wanted a cold drink and a sweet treat to go with my drink. Been seeing this place pop up on my IG. Gave it a shot. Didn't disappoint. Staff are friendly, service was quick, and the inside was fine. It was cool and dark(ish) but that's fine when it's hot out. Their menu's pretty vast. I got an ube milk tea with lychee and boba and it was perfect! When they hand it to you they let you know that they're happy to modify it if the taste doesn't meet your standards. I thought that was nice. As my food treat I got the Ube butter bar and that was "melt in your mouth good!" They have a few locations which is cool. I went to the Valencia location. If the other locations are as good as this one then awesome! I recommend!

    We grabbed a combination of pastries from this spot when we were in the area. I hadn't heard about this place before but the desserts looked so good that we couldn't resist. We ended up with a baked goods sampler pack: Ube Leche Flan Cupcake, Ube Crack Cheesecake, Ube Crinkles, Ube Truffle, Ube Butter Bar, Ube Tres Leches, and Turon Pop Tart. All of the treats were delicious. Full of flavor, fluffy and made me cherish every bite. The creative use of the ube flavors made into different desserts was pretty interesting. I also liked their unique take on classic or traditional sweet treats. The presentation was pretty amazing and I also liked that they were able to package these treats to go and keep them fully intact and looking as good and as fresh as if it was just made. I will definitely be coming back to this spot and checking out other items from the menu in the future.

    Being a frequent customer of Cafe 86 for many years, I was thrilled when they finally opened a location in Santa Clarita which is closer to home. Their Ube desserts are legendary. My personal favorites are the Ube Leche Flan cakes, Ube truffles, Ube Crack Cheesecakes, Ube Crinkle Cookies and their Halo-Halo. We visited during their grand opening weekend and it was packed with a long line inside the store. Since then, the hype has died down so you can easily pop in and out for some delicious desserts. The store is spacious and parking is never an issue.

    Didn't know they opened one up here so I definitely had to make a visit! Already love this location compared to the Northridge one due to their earlier opening hours and larger parking!! Was able to park right up front, lots of parking spots available as well. Walked in and were greeted by the very friendly staff. Lots of seating and love the overall vibe of this place. There was another couple enjoying their halo-halo and then a lady had a pick up order for a bunch of drinks! My drinks also came out very quickly, freshly made boba, strong coffee and perfect sweetness. I LOVE their cookie butter lattes and very satisfied with this location! Worth the drive out. I don't have a sweet tooth but I'll have to pick up some desserts next time! IG: @ammysalamii

    Ube monster milkshake
    Jen C.

    I came on a weekday evening for a quick snack while visiting the area. I'm a huge fan of Ube and Oreos, so this seemed perfect. The interior was very clean and minimal. My drink was prepared very quickly and the front staff was friendly. My mini Ube monster milkshake started off quite icy, but became creamier as I kept drinking. Overall, I had a great experience and will return to try the other desserts.

    Ube Matcha
    Will P.

    I'm glad they opened one of these in the SCV, they are great options for quick and delicious Filipino goods and drinks. The Ube matcha was great, I'm not a huge matcha fan but the Ube made it sweet enough for me to enjoy the flavor. We also ordered the Ube crinkles but they were eaten so quickly we did not get the time to take a picture!

    This place is super cute! Lots of places to sit makes this a great place to visit so the friends and get some tasty treats! I got there at lunchtime and was really hungry so I ordered the turkey pesto sandwich and the ube cheesecake and ube flan cupcake Everything was delicious - the sandwich was a decent size and came with chips which was nice. I would get this again The ube treats were delicious and I can't wait to come back and try more!

    Very disappointing experience. I had a $30 gift card that neither the computer nor the scanner would recognize, and two employees couldn't figure out the issue. Instead of resolving it, they asked me to step aside while they helped other customers and said they were going to call their boss. I ended up waiting about 30 minutes just to buy one drink and six pastries to bring to a friend's house. After all that waiting, there was still no solution, and I had to pay out of pocket anyway. The lack of urgency, communication, and customer service made what should have been a quick stop a complete waste of time.

    Cheesecake and milk tea
    Marissa H.

    Loved my experience here! This is a great place for fun desserts and milk teas! The service is quick and the menu is very extensive. The staff recommended their favorites (Ube crack cheesecake, Ube truffle, and Ube flan). I tried the Ube crack cheesecake and loved the ratio of the cheesecake and the crust. The crust is pretty hard but adds a great texture. I loved how the Ube cheesecake isn't too sweet and is very thick and creamy. I'll definitely look forward to trying more desserts here! The milk tea here is really good, you can actually taste the tea and doesn't feel artificial or too sweet. This shop has lots of seating and cute string lights! A great place for a family outing, date, or to hang out with friends!

The staff was friendly, professional, and welcoming from the moment we walked in. The cookies were excellent fresh, rich, and flavorful without being overwhelming.

Pretty much anything you get is going to be indulgent (and likely shareable.) It's a small storefront that is always clean. It takes a while for what you order to be created because they do exactly that...create it...each item is individually prepared, so even if it appears not crowded, it's likely to take a little while before you get what you ordered. I've been in a few times and I've always enjoyed what I've selected. I wonder if the staff is happy working there though as it seems like a lot of work and they never seem to be particularly happy to be there.

The crowd went NUTS for these inhaling them like no other. I was skeptical at first myself because I'm usually not impressed by churros, but these are delicately delicious, not too sweet or dense. Literally, I ate these like chips. So after a trip to Six Flags, I HAD to make a stop over here since I'm usually not in Santa Clarita. Boy oh boy was I was excited for the full menu! I grabbed the soft serve and two churros, which was the perfect night cap to an extremely hot day. Soft serve itself is decent, and it perfectly washed down the cinnamon sugar from the churros. Dare I say, this combo may be better than cookies and milk. I also grabbed a bag of 8 to go, which honestly was a good price! The store itself is a squeeze, but they have tables both in and outside in front of the store. Also may I mention that restrooms are A1 CLEAN! Great job staff lol. Service is quick, and even with the business, I got my order pretty fast. There's plenty of street parking here available as well as a free parking structure attached to the complex XRO is in (2 hrs max). XRO is absolutely churro-ffic!!

Conveniently located in a large plaza with Target, it's a great place to enjoy a fresh treat before or after shopping. We find their breads and pastries delicious. We have not yet tried one that we didn't like. The cakes are ok -- they're not overly sweet but I personally find them dry. However, one will certainly do if you're in a pinch for a quick birthday cake that can be personalized. Drinks are always great. We especially enjoy the seasonal offerings. Today's drinks were the Mango Green Tea and Strawberry Banana Smoothie. We also picked up a Mochi Egg Tart 2-pack to share. I have to remove a star for repeating issues with mobile orders. My order is often not ready when I arrive, at the designated time. This happened again today. I had to ask a team member about my order, who then checked for it in their system, then told me it will be out in a couple minutes. This gets frustrating during busy times. Our visits are typically in the late afternoons/early evenings. Pastry selections get quite scarce a couple hours before closing. The seating outside is dirty and sticky. The trash can is always overflowing.

While snacking outside, I placed a mobile order for a large caramel macchiato using a coupon. After about five minutes, I went inside to check on it. There was no line at the registers, but nobody was actually working on any drinks behind the counter either. As soon as I tried to get an employee's attention, a wave of customers suddenly flooded the registers. I get that in-person orders need to be taken, but my order was already in the system well before theirs. When I finally managed to talk to an employee, she just shoved me off to wait in another line to talk to her coworker. Once I reached the coworker, she acknowledged my order and promised they'd "push it out in just a second." Instead, a group that ordered six drinks after I had already been waiting ended up getting served ahead of me. They pushed out around 10 drinks for other people while I stood there waiting well over 20 minutes for a single macchiato. To make matters worse, once my drink was finally made, it just sat on the counter for two minutes before anyone even bothered to hand it to me. Great bakery, but their mobile ordering prioritization and drink counter service are completely broken. Stick to the pastries. this isn't the first time I've been disappointed by their drinks, but it will be the last.
