    This place was unexpectedly lovely! We were looking for a light bite prior to attending a movie at the nearby theater. The mail didn't have many options, so we ended up here. I ordered a croissant for my kids and the chicken pesto sandwich. The total was a reasonable $11 and the sandwich was super tasty. The service was friendly also! What a little gem.

    Located the in the Buena Park Downtown mall, they are a cute little cafe that offers specialty coffee and pastries. Customer service was great and the females that helped me were really friendly. I had the croissant waffle and and Iced Mexican Mocha. The Iced Mexican Mocha was a nice surprise. Most other mocha drinks I've had, had a chalky consistency. This one in particular was smooth and refreshing. As for the croissant waffle, I should have them up on their offer to heat it up. It was good, but it would have been much better warmed. Don't forget to check in on Yelp for 10% off a drink!

    Great place to grab a drink, staff are great. Portions are great! We always get the white mocha frap and cha-mango

    A new drink place at the mall when I visited today. The couple that manage it are really nice. The store is fairly new so not many folks know they are here. They have an ample amount of drinks to choose from. But take advantage of the 2 for $5. It's a good deal. It's a good thing as well they are close to the entrance, thirsty folks will be drawn to get a cool drink these summer days. I wish the owners the best of luck. If you like this review, please let me know. Thank you.

    Relatively speaking, Cafe Nieve is a typical boba tea shop with friendly service and a simple menu. The prices are a little on the expensive side - a small OREO slush with boba costs roughly $4 - but the drink itself is made to order in a timely manner. The staff seems a bit short handed as there were only two people on staff when I visited, but rest assured business was run smoothly and efficiently. The service is helpful and attentive and workers are quick to answer any questions and they even offer samples of the different drinks displayed for mall-goers. Without proper seating, customers will need to find a place to sit within the mall itself, but this issue is also present in many of the other surrounding food establishments as well. Overall, Cafe Nieve is a quick and easy option for thirsty window shoppers and boba tea lovers alike, and anyone visiting the mall should give the place a try!

    Mediocre boba place that is located in a mall. Friendly employees but my drinks that I got was pretty average. Nothing that stands out.

    The best smoothie and boba joint. Extra large price is just right. My favorite drink is the mango slush.

    You can tell this place really cares about every drink they make! Prices were super reasonable for…read moresuch good quality drinks! This is the perfect study spot as well, good amount of seating with good food and drinks! I got the peach matcha with hojicha foam, perfect amount of sweet and not overpowering peach flavor in my matcha which I love so much!

    Do not spend a single dollar here. Allergen requests ignored, orders wrong, zero accountability…read more If you have a food allergy, do not eat here. Full stop. The written menu advertises nondairy milk and ingredient modifications, but the kiosk doesn't actually let you select any of them. Staff told us to put substitutions in "special comments" and promised they'd be honored. They weren't- on a single order, twice. We ordered two coffees (oat milk, whole milk) and two customized breakfast burritos. It took 40 minutes. We were the only customers in the cafe. When the food came out, nothing was labeled / not the drinks, not the burritos- and staff couldn't tell us which was which. When I explained that one of us has a dairy allergy and asked them to identify the allergen-free items, I got a blank stare. We opened both burritos: both had cheese, despite my explicit no-cheese request. Their solution? "Can you pick it out?" No. You cannot pick out melted cheese from an allergen order. I was not offered a fresh burrito, just another blank stare until I specifically stated "I need you to remake this with the proper ingredients and confirm what you put in." Once again the burrito came out with no label, and when I asked for clarity on what was in it I was again met me with a blank stare. My partner's burrito was also wrong (pico she'd asked to have removed), but by then the 40-minute wait had made her late for work. When I asked for a refund on her incorrect meal, I was told they couldn't refund it "because she left." When I asked to leave written feedback: "we don't accept written feedback." Manager? Not in. Manager's phone number? Don't have it. But here's what pushed this from bad service to abominable: there is no way to hold this place accountable. At no point did anyone acknowledge a mistake had been made or make any real attempt to fix it- every wrong order was met with a shrug and the expectation that I'd just live with it. When I asked to leave written feedback, I was told they don't accept it. When I asked for the manager, they weren't in. When I asked for a manager's phone number or someone to contact, the employee "didn't have access to that." A business that serves people with food allergies MUST have a way for customers to flag problems in real time and reach management. This place has built a system where mistakes can't be reported, refunds can't be issued, and no one is responsible for anything. To be clear, this isn't on the line staff - one employee clearly hadn't been given the language support or training to succeed, and that's a management failure. The other younger employee was just incompetent and unhelpful, even though she was clearly aware of the requests. If you advertise allergen accommodations, you have to execute them, label them, and answer for it when you don't. Until this place fixes its ordering system, its labeling, and its total lack of accountability, spend your money literally anywhere else.

    THE BEST POP-UP HOST! 4Seasons Tea Cafe offers the best customer service and vibes. I walked in for…read morethe Le Petit Cafe de Touhou cupsleeve event by B-sides! I was impressed with how the owners and staff were celebrating with us! Typically, you get people "fake humoring" otakus at other shops, not here. The staff are so much fun, the lady who was calling out orders gave me Asian auntie vibes. The drinks were very tasty, I've never tried a smoothie with cheese. It was very light and gently used to provide a unique flavor. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area! 4Seasons has a couple of crane games and raffles during cupsleeve events. There's room for a few tables at the center of the shop. It's better to visit with a group!

    By far one of the worst cafes I've been to. I'm genuinely confused how this place has such high…read moreratings compared to even other cafe spots. It's concerning. 100% do not recommend coming if you're looking for a cafe with good drinks. Reviews are heavily glazed. First time coming for a pop up and I waited 4 hours in the heat. I ordered the strawberry peach smoothie and I even asked for it to be less sweet/50% and it ended up tasting like diabetes in a cup. Way more sweeter than even my friends drink???? which they didn't even ask for any adjustments either. Clearly they don't honor what the customer wants and most if not all is just cheap syrup. Everyone was nice in terms of customer service except the owner. She has the audacity to tell everyone in the crowd "everyone having a good time? Anyone angry?! GOOD! Because today is a big day so everyone should be happy no angry!!" Try standing in the 90 degrees of heat for 4 hours first. The pure pressure to just say that to make everyone "have a good time" is crazy. Yeah it's a big day but doesn't mean you did a great job for your customers to be happy out in the sun like that. Poorly managed and could've provided shade and more water to people who were waiting in line in the heat. The drinks were a huge disappointment and honestly the menu itself was a red flag. Instead of trying to maximize everything to be cheap, try updating the look of the menu at least please because the menu itself looked really ragged up and dirty despite it being laminated. The AC was non existent, even my car blew cooler air which is crazy, for a place that has held many pop up events, they seems to just want to maximize everything instead of actually taking care of their customers. Props to the artists and helpers for trying their best to make the event fun, but in regards to the cafe specifically, I would not recommend. The pop ups are heavily carrying this cafe. I'd rather go to Quickly than to drink anything from here. Stop glazing this place with the 5 star reviews because it's obvious why, the pop up carried it. Not the food/drinks itself. I would rather not spend my money to a place that is cheap with their customers.
