If I get it again next time, I would ask for less sugar if possible. The kids got the Hello Kitty cookie and it was soft, moist, and not overly sweet. The cookie was very nicely decorated.

I used to come to order Togo from the counter and take pictures, but this time I gotta come inside the hidden room yay! You must RSVP in advance to save your spot , as it's very limited. My first time here brought from my girls to celebrate Mother's Day. I love this place because it's Hello Kitty themed and I cant stop taking pictures of all the cute pastries, decorations, and the taste of all the delicious food freshly made. They taste good and delicious! The cute tea pot was served hot and tasty fragrant aroma , I ordered the Peach Blossom it came with a hello kitty shaped punk sugar, everything is so cute!!!! Service was awesome. The server explained each tier of the tea set what's in it and the choices of drinks. And best if all, helped us take group pictures. Love this place! Strongly recommended for any kind of celebration ~!! For the Hello Kitty lovers this is a must come place!!!!

But as I was walking past the ferris wheel while shopping, I saw the pink neon sign flash on with the words, "Hot Donuts". Like a moth to a flame, I walked in looking for something sweet. For those without reservations, they have a takeout menu with various drinks and desserts. Seasonal special at the time were these freshly made mini maple donuts. The price ($8.50, now $9) is not so mini, but they put a lot in the cup. It was surprisingly delightful, super fluffy and warm. Way sweeter than expected though. But I'd come back, order the regular cinnamon one, and maybe ask if it can be made with less glaze and sprinkles.

EGG-SCRUCIATING PAIN Closed on Jan 4, 2026…read more Wow i am so devastated, there is not enough gudetama representation in the world and now, it feels EGG-stremely lonely without the laziest egg right here in my hometown. Gone but never forgotten, Gudetama Cafe):

3.5/5 While I…read moreabsolutely loved the decor and feel of the Gudetama Cafe, my food experience, to quote Gudetama, was "meh." The menu has various egg themed dishes as well as bubble tea. For the price we paid the quality of the food wasn't really worth the money. It was cute seeing the little Gudetama face on the eggs but this is probably a singular dining experience for me. The drinks we ordered were way too sweet for me and they had a limited selection of merchandise. I wanted to get a T-shirt but unfortunately they only had one size available. The other merchandise I looked at either didn't seem appealing or was way too expensive for what it was (which seemed to be the theme of the day). Service was very friendly and I did enjoy seeing all the Gudetama statues and art in the cafe though.

Cuppa Pug is a themed cafe where visitors can book a session with resident pugs. This is one of…read moreseveral locations including London (England), Manchester (England), Edinburgh (Scotland), Brighton (England), Escondido (California), and Frisco (Texas). [Parking]: Free private parking lot with plenty of available spots. [Reservation & Price]: Our party booked an advanced one-hour reservation session on the website from 4 PM to 5 PM on a Saturday. The price is $20 + $0.51 booking fee per adult (ages 16+) for a one-hour session. [Experience]: Our party checked in at the front counter and hung out in the waiting area. The waiting area sells various pug merchandise and also has a touchscreen pinball machine. There is a unisex restroom available. Once our party stepped into a separate pink & clean room, the staff went over instructions on how to handle the pugs. Visitors are allowed to pick up the pugs but cannot carry them while standing. Any pug wearing a pink bandana is available for adoption. Each of us received few free treats to start, but additional treats like pupccino (a small pup cup), sausage treats, or fruit cups are available for purchase. The staff was friendly and was playing fun & energetic background music during the pug session. Our party didn't stay for the entire hour and left around the 45-minute mark because we had a dinner plan afterward. [Conclusion]: Our party had fun playing with the pugs and took plenty of photos. It was a fun and Instagrammable experience & I would highly recommend this experience to anyone who's visiting the Escondido area.

My son really loved this place. Its a One Piece themed cafe with plenty of photo opportunities…read more We were able to get a table quite easily. There were a few parties entering throughout the time that we were there, but it didn't get very busy. Really the hardest thing was finding a street parking spot, given the Little Tokyo location. Also FYI there are some shady areas at night a few blocks away from this (away from the action of LT), so may want to be careful where you park, especially coming with kids. He didn't feel like eating so just had a drink, which was surprisingly really good. Came in an interesting one piece cup.

As a fan of One Piece I was looking forward to coming here. I don't know what I was expecting but…read moreit was a little disappointing for me. The cafe is small and sure it was decorated but if you compare themed cafes in Japan to this it's not that impressive at all. Unfortunately I didn't get to try the food as most of it was sold out when I went so I got Robins drink which was recommended by the staff. The pricing seemed decent for most of the items. It was sweet but very watered down, to me it tasted like a grape propel drink....not my favorite. I noticed a lot of the drinks were premade into cups already. I don't know how I feel about that as the freshness aspect isn't there but maybe they were slammed when they first opened and that was the best way they could get peoples drinks out. The souvenir cup was a nice touch but I personally wouldn't come here again.

AMAZING COSTUMER SERVICE AND VERY CLEAN PLAY AREA…read more I am a mommy-group host that plans mommy & me play dates. I recently hosted a play date at this cafe & it was soooooo much fun! The owners were so sweet to allow us to host here. They gave us a small discounted fee & added in son coffee & pastries for us mamas to enjoy. Mamas also bought some items to eat and from ear I was told it was yummy too. The play area was super clean! Their coffee & pastries they brought us were super yummy as well! All of the mamas who joined our playdate loved it! They also have a specific area for infants to crawl around safely away from running toddlers. I was able to chat and meet both owners & they were the sweetest! I cannot wait to host here again! IMMEDIATELY after our play date ended, they closed the play area and got to cleaning. They are super detailed when it comes to cleaning & disinfecting the area after each play slot. 10000000/10 recommend this place!

I ordered the Maid Lele Combo, the fish and chips were very good. The fried fish felt juicy kn the inside and crunchy on the outside. The chips/fries were good, right amount of soft and crunch. The Arnold Palmer Lemonade was a first time ever and it was nice and refreshing. But if you're a fan of sweets. The star of the show is the cheesecake. It has to be one of the best cheesecakes I have ever had. Since the combo was a Maid Special, Maid Nagi turned me into a cat (it was really fun and cute) and we cast a blessing to the food as well. You also get a cheki with the maid on duty, this time being Maid Nagi of course. Overall the atmosphere of the café was peaceful and fun. I went at a time where it wasn't too busy which is perfect for someone like me. If you're a fan of maid cafés or wanna try one for the first time, I do recommend checking it out. Thanks again Maid Nagi for a wonderful experience

You might miss it coz it's really tucked in. Clever decor using VHS tapes. If you are not familiar with those--ask your parents (or Google it lol. Catchy themed drinks, mostly on the BERY sweet side. Friendly & accommodating staff. Got the Ube matcha ("Wanna date")- very sweet, pretty good but I had to reduce it by adding more ice when I took the rest home. The cold brew was good, also sweet. They have a 55 inch tv playing a horror movie when i visited. I can imagine stopping by & sitting there to watch while I drink my beverage, but who has the time to do this? Cute shop. Parking is plentiful & free at this strip mall

Caffeinated and specialty drinks, horror decor and scary movie! Count me in!…read more Parking: The cafe is located inside a plaza so there is plenty of public parking. Location: The shop is located inside the Walk way in between Scardino's Pizza and JM Botánica on the left side. Great spot for a quick grab or small group congregation! Also found out they have a second space right across from the shop! It wasn't opened at the time but looks like they would open it for larger events or maybe weekends. LOVED THE DECOR, and is definitely a coffee shop where you can chill, play board games or watch a movie. They have a cool horror selection of board games to match the theme! Staff was super friendly and we came in to try the 5 Nights of Freddy's Specialty drinks and the chocolate cake! ARR ARR ARR was a delicious cafe frappe flavor, the bite of 87' was a cool slushie, and Pirates Cove sweet coffee iced beverage. They have a variety of options for all drinkers, Espresso, specialty blends, lemonades and slashes, coffee and matcha!

Some of them even come in packages so you can basically get a whole combo. Some of the drinks are interactive where you get to cast a fun "spell". For extra pricing, you can request for a fun silly dance and even take Polaroid photos that you can take home for a keepsake. Overall, very fun and entertaining meal. I got the tuna melt and it was heavenly! Only thing I didn't care for was the veggies as they were welted since it was a hot sandwich. Other than that, very good flavors!

The customer service was honestly one of the best parts so genuine, kind, and welcoming. We let her know it was our first time and she took the time to give recommendations and even share a little about the business, which made the whole experience feel so personal. The pancakes were hands down some of the best I've ever had soft, flavorful, and just different in the best way. The whole place had such a cozy, homey vibe. It's not about being modern or flashy, it's the kind of spot that feels real and comfortable. It actually reminded me of the places I used to go to as a kid with my family and grandparents, which made it feel extra special and a little emotional. I can't believe we live so close and are just now finding this spot. We'll definitely be coming back to try more from the menu!
