This little cafe is located in a plaza with plenty of parking! They have 2 self order kiosks which has pictures of the items which is nice if you need a visual of what you're getting! They have quite a bit of indoor seating and a few seats outside. It's very chill & seems like a good place to study at! I got a vanilla iced latte with oat milk & a tuna croissant which were both good. Glad I tried it but I don't see myself coming back
It had been a while since my last visit -- and I was pleasantly surprised by how much the place has changed. The interior looks great, and the new ordering process with the self-service kiosk is super smooth. You just order, grab a seat, and wait to be called. We ordered the Bagel Breakfast Sandwich, Everything Croissant, Honey Cream Cold Brew, and the Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie. I was tempted to try the coffee because it looked so good but decided to stick with the smoothie. Funny enough, while sitting down, one of the staff (possibly the owner) mentioned how great it is to add a cold brew shot to the smoothie. A few moments later, he came out and actually brought one over on the house -- such a kind gesture, and it made the smoothie even better. Overall, great service, welcoming atmosphere, and a much-improved setup since my last visit. Everything ran smoothly from order to pickup. Definitely will be back!
I stopped in to get a mocha latte for my husband. This is a very cute shop. My husband enjoyed his latte. The service was great. This is a prime location and I hope it does well. Next time I'd like to try some food and the Hibiscus lemonade.
Tried the Spanish Latte and it was pretty good. This location has plenty of parking, indoor and outdoor seating and a fun ambiance. Not sure a fan of the kiosk ordering system since it requires my phone number ... service was quick but lack the personalized feel.
Food is excellent, parking is plentiful, staff is delightful. Pretty and cozy setting if you eat inside. My only observation was that there cushioned area was a bit dinghy on the seats. Ordering is kiosk style which is nice if you want to stop in for a quick to-go order. Came on a Wednesday at lunch and there was no wait. Ordered the Monte Kristo paying and it was ready on about 5 minutes. It was very flavorful. Next time ill try the turkey pesto panino.
Nice little coffee and brunch spot! This was my first time here, and I really enjoyed the jalapeño bagel sandwich, freshly made to order. I also tried the banana nut muffin, and everything was delicious. I ordered a vanilla latte, which had the perfect amount of sweetness. The food menu doesn't offer a ton of options, but everything on it sounded really good. It wasn't overly crowded, which I appreciated. WiFi is available, and the tables are spacious enough to get some work done. I spent a couple of hours here and really enjoyed the atmosphere. The place was clean, and the staff were friendly and welcoming.
Great atmosphere. Coffee tastes great Pricing: for large coffee around 7-9$ depending on add ons.. sandwich's run about 6 8-13$ good quality though.. 3 star SOLEY BECAUSE ITS ORDER BY KIOSK! Looks like the world is going digital and NO CASH...
I've been here multiple times and it continues to be one of the best spots for a quick bite and delicious coffee! My go to is the breakfast bagel and the iced Spanish soy latte! Definitely a must try! The staff is all pretty young but all of them are very nice and are patient and they have good music playing all the time.
Came in to have a little lunch and cookies after my daughter's doctor's appointment. The service was excellent and the vibe was nice. Typical coffee shop vibes. Wifi available and comfortable chairs. Not a ton of space but a good little hole in the wall. My wife thought the sandwich was good and my daughter enjoyed the macaron set. Nothing super out of the ordinary. Very consistent.
Ambiance: Randomly, I found this place on Google for a quick bite. Decent amount of seating, straightforward menu, and easy to navigate. Service: They were super nice and helpful, attentive and quick with the turnaround. Food: Overall, what I got was ok. My sandwich was really dry and wasn't toasted (I don't think it was supposed to be, but I feel like it should've been). I'd probably go back for another drink, not food.
I'll start with the positive I do like their coffee! My go to is a Large SPANISH LATTE oat milk either hot or iced. It's 7 dollars and some change. So more expensive than Starbucks but I like supporting local businesses. This place is in the middle of La mirada residential area and right as the commercial stores start there's BIOLA near by and I think that's who they want as customers the BIOLA students. Now the bad! 1. NO CASH! - like my kid says "it's the big '25 get with the times" I guess. But it's probably because... 2. You have to order on a kiosk! I guess this allows for the staff there to stay in the back preparing an avocado toast and the Spanish latte. And management has one less employee to pay to take orders. The girl that helped me find my item on the kiosk was super nice. Will NOT be coming back unfortunately. There's other coffee spots opening in the same shopping center hopefully they have the staff to TAKE MY MONEY.
Scam menu. Shows meats are included in sandwiches then when you choose to type of meat, theres a 30 cent fee. There is No service only SELF service.
Love this spot. Came here with my mom for lunch a while back and today I'm just grabbing breakfast to go. Both times got super friendly, quick service. Food is great, açaí bowl and smoothie and paninis are all well made! Owners are kind and they work hard to make sure it's a lovely atmosphere in here. Check it out!

What happened to Cream & Sugar? This used to be one of our favorite little cafés in La Mirada. The food was good, the atmosphere was welcoming, and it had that cool local coffee-shop feel. This time we walked in and immediately thought... wait, are we in the right place? It just feels completely different now. New owners? New management? New everything? The vibe has somehow gone from cute neighborhood café to "family business that also happens to own an espresso machine." Even the barista was casually having a meal behind the register. Honestly, she might've had the right idea because I should've asked what SHE ordered. We got the Everything Croissant and the C&S Grilled Cheese. Unfortunately, both were pretty disappointing. The Everything Croissant has eggs, onion, bell pepper, cheese, tomato, house spread AND avocado. That is basically the Avengers of breakfast ingredients, yet somehow they all assembled and forgot to bring the flavor. Then came the C&S Grilled Cheese. The menu says soy chorizo, spinach, bacon, cheddar and spicy buffalo cheese. Ours had absolutely NO soy chorizo. That used to be one of the best parts! I kept looking through the sandwich like maybe it was hiding. Nope. Soy chorizo had apparently taken the day off. We also noticed several things we used to order are gone from the menu. And then, on the way through all these changes, you notice the B health department rating and think... okay Cream & Sugar, we really need to sit down and talk. I'm not trying to beat up on a local business because we genuinely used to love this place. I just hope they can bring back some of what made Cream & Sugar so good before, because right now it feels like the café we loved went on vacation and forgot to tell us. read more
Sea salt and caramel hot latte -5/10 Cold brew -10/10 Avocado toast- 6/10 Garden veggie bagel add turkey -5/10 The cold brew was great. However, the sea salt latte was entirely too salty and the food was oddly very bland and not worth the price. Customer service and parking were great. read more

I think I would rather just not have the avocado in my sandwich not the 1st, 2nd or even 3rd bad avocado I've had in my sandwiches from here unfortunately. Lesson learned. Good coffee though! read more

Wow.. I always DoorDash their coffee and bagel for my son and me on the weekend and today was my first time stopping to dine in with my son. Let me rate this place as I was pretty impressed as I had low expectations and I want to remember some experiences I had today: 1. Food: their turkey sandwich was yummy!! Filled with ingredients and was super delicious (5/5). This is what I want to remember for next time as it was better than I expected. Waffle with fruit was normal (4/5) 2. Parking: normal shopping plaza parking lot. Easy to find parking (5/5) 3. Customer service: I waited few minute until someone came to the cash register to take my order but she did ask to wait alittle as she was finishing up an order. Everyone seems pretty friendly and nice. No attitude here. (4.5/5) 4. Atmosphere: very cozy and neighborhood-like environment?! Plenty of seats inside and there are few seats outside. I saw a lot of people coming in and out during my 30 min visit. (5/5) What and who impressed me the most was the owner who cares and have great leadership! As our table was near the front register, I overheard him communicating and getting feedback with his employees which was a positive experience for me as I can see that the owner cares for his employees and his business. He was educating them about some coffee bean stuff and employees were asking questions and in the end, I saw the same employee educating what he learned to a customer and talking about some coffee stuff to them. Wish them the best of luck with their business as they truly deserve it! Oh also.... One thing that caught my attention was their plant above the ceiling as I have no idea how they water it as they're pretty high up there... read more

Ordered the avocado toast thinking it would be a decent size since it's priced at $13. Nope! The size of the toast was 4x3 inches, yes I measured it, and when I called to complain I was told that they order their sourdough from a local bakery and the size of the slice can vary and there's nothing they can do about it. So unless you are okaying paying $13 for a small piece of toast with 1/2 of a small smashed avocado, I don't recommend. read more

Really cute spot with a big menu and speedy WiFi. I got a Spanish latte and breakfast sandwich. I would definitely come back! Friendly baristas and plenty of seating. read more
I came to help a friend study at this cafe on a Tuesday afternoon since it was halfway between both of us. Located in a huge parking lot, this place opens everyday at 7:30AM and closes everyday at 3:00PM so definitely no late night studies for this place :P There's only about 4 big tables that you can sit at where there are nearby outlets as well. If only they had a few single seaters for those solo studiers then it would be nice. I ordered a Dirty Thai Milk Tea w/ 1 shot of espresso and a Everything Croissant w/ turkey which came out to be about $18...which is quite pricey imo. The drink was strong and a little bit on the sweeter side, but the croissant was pretty good but not worth ~$10 lol You can either order at the cash register or the tablet they have and once your order is done they will call your name to have you come get your order at the front. Overall, decent place study/eat at. If I were to come back I'll probably try their KBBQ Pork Sandwich. read more

I stopped here late one morning for a caffeinated beverage and a bite to eat. The interior is cute and comfortable with several tables plus counter seating along the windows. I ordered a vanilla latte and a monte cristo panini. The latte was okay. The sweet vanilla was in nice contrast to the bitterness of the espresso but the flavor of whatever beans they were using was not my favorite. I enjoyed their panini version of a monte cristo. The slices of deli turkey, ham and melted cheese along with a thin layer of strawberry jam had the flavors of a true monte cristo. They even sprinkled some powdered sugar on top. Service was pleasant but incredibly slow. Remember how you could play a DVD frame-by-frame, even slower than slow motion? Yeah, slow like that. It took forever to get the panini but I actually finished eating it before my latte was ready. Good coffee and food but staff needs a couple shots of espresso themselves! read more

First time here. I was back n fourth a bit between a 2 or 3 star rating, but we were greeted by an order screen with no contact from staff until our order was ready. The banana muffin was average, the earl grey with honey was tasty (no tea bags used) but the hazelnut latte was off the mark. Flavors were not there, ratios were off so my husband chose not to finish it. Disappointed... was hoping to have a new go to in the area. read more

Hands down my new favorite brunch spot! It's a little hole in the wall coffee shop with delicious smoothies and sandwiches. So far, I tried their avocado toast and it was perfect. The toast was crisp with a smooth flavorful avocado, juicy sliced grape tomatoes, aeronautic herbs, and just the right amount of seasoning. A great balance for this avocado toast acidity was the slightly sweet peanut butter, banana smoothie. Not only did the flavors ignite my taste buds, but the service was great. Although it was pretty busy, our server, Ashely, was very attentive, and had sunny disposition. read more
