    My mango matcha drink was good but the girl working did not ask me for sweetness level, I forgot to say anything so I guess I GOT 100% And it literally tasted like 10000% sugar lmao I LIKE SWEET BUT IT WAS WAY TOO MUCH. STILL, I Appreciate the taste and the potency ! Next time I'll for sure ask for 25% here. (If possible) I like the decor, modern style Cafe vibe . Very clean and there was a photo station too! the mallow cookie was 8/10 !!! Really fresh and tasty, with good slightly chewy texture, tender marshmallow, Their baked goods honestly all looked great!

    Mango matcha, Black sesame latte, Grape ade
    Sam B.

    #181 in my Coffeeshop Chronicles. Haru is a small coffeeshop that recently opened in Buena Park. Their specialized menu consists of several unique and creative drinks, so it took me a moment to narrow down my choices. I ultimately went with their Black sesame latte and Green grape ade. The black sesame latte is one of their more popular drinks with it's rich, roasted, and slightly sweet flavor profile. I loved how creamy the nutty drink was after mixing. Nevertheless, as impressive as the latte was, the real winner for me was the green grape ade. The drink was a refreshing bubbly drink, both crisp and sweet. I also enjoyed the pastries I purchased, especially the Lotus marshmallow cookie. All in all, Haru was a fantastic find! ****************** My Ratings: 1 Star: Terrible; just thinking about it makes me angry. 2 Stars: Wasn't a fan so Not likely to return. 3 Stars: Meh. Average. Might return if others drag me. 4 Stars: Yum! Likely to return. 5 Stars: Amazing! Would plan my day around it.

    I've been seeing this coffee shop for some time now and can't believe it took me this long to try it. It's sooo good! Definitely going to become one of my go-to spots, especially since it's close to me. I got the Biscoff latte and it did not disappoint, super creamy and full of flavor. The place itself is also so cute. I loved all the decor, and the ladies working there were incredibly sweet and welcoming.

    Very cute modern cafe! Biscoff Latte- Good. The sweetness is adjustable, so you can keep that coffee kick if you prefer things a bit more bitter Black Sesame Oat Latte- Nutty and creamy yet still has the coffee flavor Strawberry Matcha Latte- light matcha flavor, but delicious when mixed with the strawberry Lemon Bar: yum Pretzel Croissant Sandwich: Ours came out a little too toasted (extra crispy!), but the flavor was still good The staff were very friendly and helpful, making the whole experience pleasant. Definitely returning to try other drinks when in the area!

    I'm so glad I discovered Cafe Haru recently. Parking is easy and the inside spanking clean and beautifully decorated. I had my drink orders placed online ahead of time and it was available upon arrival. I loved every sip of what I had ordered!!! The Biscoff latte and the caramel milk tea were delicious and refreshing. Both items weren't too sweet, and I didn't feel like all I had was 5 sips and rest of it ice. Phew! So many artisanal coffee shop type places do that nowadays so it was nice to see they have ice level as an option. I'm looking forward to returning again in the future!

    We got the biscoff latte, sesame oat latte, and the chocolate croissant. I'm usually a black sesame latte person, but I thought the biscoff latte was better in this case! The drinks were pretty sweet but it didn't detract from the flavor. There's minimal seating at the cafe (pretty small location), but I went when it wasn't busy so it was easy to find a seat.

    We stopped by for some drinks and dessert the other day. There is a lot of parking available in the shopping center they are located in. The café itself is small and charming. We got a few drinks. The black sesame oat latte was rich and dark. The apple peach ice tea was cool and refreshing. The apple and peach notes in the back of the tea were just right. Subtlety sweet and perfect for sipping. The green grape sparkingling ade was bubbly, sweet and refreshing. I couldn't stop drinking it. They also have a good assortment of pastries. We got a pecan bar that was delicious. The bar is full of pecans and it is not very sweet. Just perfect. We also got a strawberry and cream croissant. The strawberries and cream are subtlety sweet. The croissant itself is light, flakey and buttery. So good. Plus, the staff is super friendly and helpful.

    I had the mango matcha. This is one of the places where the mango taste artificial or not fresh. Staff was friendly. Nice little cafe to hang

    I wouldn't have known this coffee joint without Bonnie S. , special thanks! It's such a hidden gem, cute shop located in the same plaza as Northgate Market. Enjoyed the black sesame oat milk latte so much, I almost wanted a second. Usually the black sesame flavor would be super strong where you are unable to taste the coffee, but this was very well balanced. The coffee was there and so was the black sesame. I'm usually a oat milk type of gal, and they were on the spot for me. Service - Very friendly staff. Explains each drink to you as you order. Food - Didn't get to try the pastries, but they do have a few to grab a bite. Seats - There are a few seats inside to sit and study. There is free wifi and outlets for laptops if needed.

    the store is cute, drinks are cute, service is kind, what else could one ask for! the matcha was very smooth and enjoyable. the green grape ade was sooo super refreshing and was my fav! i wanna try more ade drinks now

    I love their Biscoff Latte, and I didn't have to just the sweetness level because it's just right! Came here on a weekday around lunch hours and the place is packed, but there was no wait so my drink came out pretty fast and it was only one person working as well. They were pretty fast making the drink. I love the decorations, sanitary or design inside the store. Limited parking in the plaza, but it was a quiet one

    Checked out Haru recently and overall had a nice experience. It seems like a new coffee spot and definitely worth a visit if you're in the area. I ordered the matcha latte and it was perfect to my taste. It wasn't too sweet at all, and I ordered it as is with no adjustments. If you prefer sweeter drinks, I would recommend adding extra sweetener. My cousin got the black sesame latte, which was ordered unsweetened. It wasn't really for me since it had a very strong coffee flavor and the sesame was pretty subtle, but my cousin really enjoyed it. If you like your coffee not sweet and more on the bold side, I would recommend that drink. They also sell the viral Dubai chocolate cookie, which I had to try. I would rate it a 6/10. It wasn't bad, but it didn't stand out to me and I felt like the chocolate overpowered the pistachio to the point where I could barely taste it. Maybe it's just overhyped, but I had higher expectations. I wouldn't buy it again, though it's fine to try once if you're curious. Service was nice and fast, which I appreciated. The space itself is very small and the tables are close together, so I wouldn't recommend this spot for studying or working. It's more of a place to catch up and chat with a friend or two. Overall, a cute coffee spot!

    There is a reason this place has a high rating! I tried their jasmine peach iced tea and it was sooooooooo good. I want to come back everyday for it honestly. Plenty of parking. Friendly staff. Good amount of seating for a quick coffee date or work session. Bright and airy. I will happily support Haru and their success- can't wait to come back for a bite to eat!

I tried Da Vien a few months back, but haven't had the opportunity to return back until a few days ago. I remembered this location used to be a Lee's Sandwich located before it got renovated into Da Vien Coffee. I believe Da Vien is a Vietnamese chain, but I was not interested in trying their Vietnamese coffee since there are other numerous locations that offer Vietnamese coffee. Hence, I decided to try their other drinks to see if they could replicate the authentic Chinese/Taiwanese feeling. This time, I ordered the Strawberry Milk Matcha and the Brown Sugar Fresh Milk. My first attempt with the Brown Sugar Fresh Milk I had a complete brain freeze since it completely remind me of authentic boba milk tea from Taiwan! On the other hand, the matcha was alright - I would skip it next time. The wait time at the drive-thru was a little longer than I would like (20+ minutes). This was during peak time with multiple cars in line. Nevertheless, paying for the drinks and then getting the drinks was a quick 2-3 minutes. Overall, I would come back if I was near the area or if one of their locations was closer to where I live.

The location has plenty of parking and plenty of seating. There is an outdoor patio, and inside there is a first floor seating area, and a second floor seating area. The interior had high ceilings and modern practical decor. Staff will take your order at the cashier, but they also have a kiosk if you want to avoid human interaction. I was here for a few hours, so I started off with a hot beverage since I saw that they have mug service. I had the hot Churro Latte ($8.15/large) and I was warned it's a bit sweet so staff suggested that I get it less sweet. I appreciated the gesture but maybe that's why I didn't taste too much of the churro flavor. It tasted like a good regular latte but maybe they held back on the caramel and cinnamon to the point I couldn't detect it. Seating is first come first serve. It was actually really busy and difficult to find an ideal spot. Since I was alone I sat at a high top ledge, strategically near an outlet. From what I saw, they had a really good amount of outlets in the indoor seating area. Later on I went back and ordered an iced Blueberry Lavender Matcha with Cold Foam ($9.25/large) and a Deluxe Avocado Toast ($15) which comes with egg, bacon, and herb oil. I like that this location serves the avocado toast with a knife and fork cause it was much needed. It was a bit on the wet side. Maybe I should ask for light herb oil next time. For how much this avocado toast cost, I would have liked more avocado. The avocado was more of a spread, not whole slices of avocado. Still good, just an observation. The blueberry lavender matcha was okay. I could taste the lavender but it was overpowering the matcha and the blueberry was hard to detect at all. Honestly the location and plentiful seatings is what stood out most from this experience. I would consider coming back since I know their products are good from trying their other locations but I wouldn't get the drinks I ordered this time. For how expensive coming here was, I wish I was a little more satisfied.

It was a 5/5 for me). Overall, I'd come back if I'm in the area again. Workers are very friendly and efficient and drinks are good, especially the matcha!
