    Not just your average latte.... But a damn good one!
    Elle E.

    Love this place. No pretension, just a well balanced drink you can ask for be it matcha, latte or their cold brew. The crew are friendly and the place is clean. I personally love my matcha drinks. I can go from hot to cold, sweetened or that matcha dream with all that banana foam goodness. Then I'll switch it up to a nice hot chocolate or when I am feeling adventurous, I would go for that cold brew to give me an extra kick when I need the boost. Then, I would, once in a while have a plain latte made to perfection especially when the doming action and froth makes my drink just how I craved for

    The lavender latte tasted good. The barista made an abstract heart shape that I forgot to take a photo.

    The lavender latte was good but already lukewarm when I am called to pick it up. The bear claw was terrible, hard and not even tasty almond or apple filling. I asked if it was apple or almond filling. The person said it was both. I didn't taste any apple. It was just almond filling. It was not bread/pain not croissant-like pastries. Just a hard bread as if it has been sitting there for days. The pesto tomato pastry was decent, crusty and layered that the bear claw was not. I might come back for the latte and matcha. Not sure on the pastries. I have had better pastries.

    I went to this location during the soft opening and it was good! It's been awhile since I came back and I will say, I feel like they changed their recipes to some items or changed a manufacturer of some sort. I usually get an Iced Matcha Latte - sweetened with oat milk. When I used to get it, the latte with dull green and tasted yummy. I got a good mix of matcha and oat milk. When I got it this past week, it tasted much more grassy although the color was more vibrant. I will say I think I preferred the old way they used to make the drink. Also the scones they sell are still pretty good! I do look and taste just a tad different but they are overall good. They do have a good seating area to study if you are student going to CSUN. Also staff are very sweet.

    Such a delicious cup of Americano here! You can tell a lot about a coffee shop based on their Espresso and Americano, distilling coffee to its purest unadulterated form, and not hiding behind sweet sugar, foamy milk, and flavored syrup. The House Roots Coffee Valley Blend that they use for their Espresso is rich and layered. It's not merely "coffee-tasting." Any good Americano that comes from excellent beans should be more than just that. The hints of peach and hazelnut is most noticeable at first, while the lingering taste evolves to unsweetened chocolate. The selection of whole beans are also really good, making it hard to choose from. I have had a few of their Single Origin bags before, and while they are honestly more difficult to wrangle consistency in flavor and taste when pulling a shot of espresso at home (Single Origin can be like this), the results are worth it. This time around, I'm going to try a new bag I have not tried, the Ethiopia Uraga Gogogu (Landraces Washed) from Guji. Tasting notes are Candied Melon Dried Cherry, and Oolong Tea. The aroma is already so good, so I can't wait to try this at home!

    Tried this spot for the first time. Nice chill vibe. They have a few tables and bench seating. Parking is terrible but theres a close plaza with parking within walking distance. Staff was nice. No restroom though fyi. Theres complimentary water as well. Ordered orange truffle latte. Really good. Hot and the orange is subtle but it's a nice combination of flavor. Some might want the orange to be stronger but I liked it. Thank you!

    This is the third location location I've been to and I believe it's the newest. It's a much larger spot and right next to CSUN so good size for all the college students needing their caffeine fix or study session. Parking in the street seems hopeless but you can easily find parking at the shopping center next door. The coffee at House Roots is good- true to the bean and their drinks are consistently not too sweet. They have seasonal drinks as well which is always a fun surprise. Today I tried their toasted pecan latte and it was nutty and again not too sweet, good quality coffee here. I haven't tried any of their baked goods yet or hot food aka burritos but that's next on the list!

    Sunday afternoon rainy weather what do I get ? An iced latte with cold foam. Rain or shine I love an iced coffee. My first time at this location and wow it's so big. The other two locations I have been to are smaller, this is great lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Right next to CSUN. I'm sure the students love it here. I sure did. Freshly baked goods (you serve yourself and take it to the register to pay) Delicious coffee and matcha drinks , good customer service.

    Found about House Roots Coffee on a Sunday morning while running errands. So happy to run into House Roots Coffee and discover their menu and coffee drinks. Customer service here is also great. The young lady at the counter along with the barista were pleasant. House Roots Coffee is a pretty good size coffee shop and just a short walk to the next door parking lot. The shop has plenty of seating options both outside and inside the coffee shop. They also have a bar like seating inside. As soon as you walk into the shop the sweet smell of coffee greets you. The place is spacious and very nicely decorated for the holidays. There's a Christmas tree in the corner with ornaments and lights. The counter is also festively decorated with a banner that says Merry Christmas. You can definitely feel the warmth and spirit of the holidays once you walk in. Love the vibe and ambiance of House Roots Coffee. It's our first time at House Roots Coffee. We wanted to try their Signature Mocha Latte and Seasonal Orange Truffle Latte. Both coffee drinks were equally delicious and up to par. The Signature Mocha Latte was tasteful and you can taste the espresso and mocha blend. It was good and not too strong. My favorite is the Orange Truffle Latte. This was a tasteful coffee drink. Not many coffee houses can perfect an Orange Truffle Latte taste. It's late with orange cardamom chocolate syrup garnished with powdered cocoa. I will order this drink again and we look forward to trying other coffee drinks on House Roots Coffee menu.

    In my opinion I wasn't impressed with their regular coffee. I always try that first when I go to a new place most of the time. My house coffee was bitter and sour. Not sure I'd get that again. I might give it another chance and try something else. Service excellent. Ambiance is casual. Parking available in structure.

    I ordered their ceremonial grade matcha latte w/ oatmilk, less sweet with extra matcha powder as I saw people mentioned how their standard matcha is too sweet and you weren't able to taste the matcha as much. Im glad I did because I can definitely taste more of the matcha umami notes, though I have had places with better matcha-to-milk ratio without having to alter the recipe so I would suggest tweaking the recipe if lots of customers express the same opinion. Fyi, They do charge you more for extra matcha & milk substitute. Overall, it is a minimalistic, clean cafe with few seats inside, but more seating outside! They had friendly workers who made our drinks pretty quick.

    Been getting their coffee for years! Started with their original location up in Granada Hills and then moved on to Chatsworth which was perfect for our daily commute to work. Parking lot is bigger there too. But I think this one takes the cake!! This location is absolutely beautiful! So much open space and love the amount of outdoor seating! They have seats out front and on the side in a kind of patio area. The staff are friendly and they make the drinks fast which is what they are known for. The quality of their drinks doesn't get compromised! Love their salted butterscotch latte but I decided to try their Einspanner Latte this time and was not disappointed!! Make sure to mix it well. Strong coffee with a hint of savory from their salted vanilla cold foam. Perfection and even have the biggest parking lol! They're right next to the shopping center where they have Panda, bb.q, and other shops. Easily walkable and convenient! Can't wait to visit again and try their other drinks. Really wish the Chatsworth location had the full menu of drinks. Maybe one day. IG: @ammysalamii

    Decided to try this spot after my friend recommended it to me. Absolutely BLOWN away. I'm not one to finish my bevs mostly because I get full quickly and some places serve their drinks terribly too sweet for me. But this one??? I could not get enough. Best coffee I've ever had!

    Cute little spot tucked into a new apartment complex, easy to miss if you're not looking for it. I ordered the salted butterscotch latte and really enjoyed it. It was flavorful but not too sweet, which I appreciated. My husband got the choconana dream and said it was pretty light overall. He could really taste the banana toward the end, mostly because of the actual banana chunks mixed in. We also split the chorizo burrito, super tasty, great flavor. My only tip: be careful when you bite in. It was very hot temperature-wise (not spicy), so give it a minute to cool down unless you want to burn your mouth like we did! The one downside was the service. After taking our order, the guy pretty much ignored us when we tried to ask for a digital receipt. Not the friendliest vibe. Overall, the food and drinks were good, but the staff could be a bit more attentive.

    We were checking out the new Gelato Mio next door and noticed Napoleon Bakery after parking. The…read moreinterior was so attractive that we were enticed to go inside an check out their wares. Although it was close to closing time, the young man who was minding the shop was very friendly and gracious in answering our questions. They have a beautiful selection of cake slices, pastries, and even coffee drinks available. They do custom whole cakes for birthdays and other occasions. With the name of Napoleon, I thought it was a French bakery. It turns out that they specialize in a number of European confections, including options from Eastern Europe. Without a lot of time before they were done for the day, Dear Hubby and I each chose a cake slice, and we got a cake pop for our Sweet Granddaughter. She got to pick the color icing she preferred, which was nice. The pricing seems fair, especially given the loving care that's gone into baking and decorating each baked treat. We will definitely be visiting again. They are within 5 to 10 minutes of where our kids live, so there you go - a new "secret" place discovered!

    We saw this place next door after having lunch/dinner at Boiling Pot next door on Sunday. The…read moreplace looked popular with tables filled on the patio and the pastries on display through the window looked intriguing so decided to take a chance and maybe get a small coffee and some pastries to try. There was a young man at the counter who welcomed us with a wonderful smile. He said his name is Said (pronounced Sa-eed) and asked if it was our first time here. We said it was, so he offered to give us some samples of their most popular bake goods. He said it is made of light custard and it's called soft cake and it is traditional pastry from his country in Uzbekistan that his mother bakes all from scratch. In Asia we also don't like overly sweet cakes so we thought it sounded to fit our taste preferences. And we loved it after trying! My mom said it tastes very similar to the cake she had back in Seoul in her childhood she misses fondly, but she could never have that same taste. Just a little sweeter. But the custard and texture of the cake is just the same. We also got the eclair. And it was pretty good too. But definitely recommend the soft cake!! Sooo yummyyy!! I also got the strawberry cold foam matcha latte and my mom got a small americano coffee. She said it's the best coffee she had in a cafe. Of course superb compared to Starbucks or any other coffee franchise. She says American coffee shops always burn their beans so it tastes burnt, but this place roasted the beans just right. And we also loved the strawberry cold foam matcha. I don't know how, but it tasted like really strawberry was in the drink!! My mom said it's the best strawberry milk she ever had here and in Korea! And she wants to order again when we come by next time. Overall a very enjoyable experience. Food and drinks were all prepared with such care, but given at a reasonable time. Some of these cafes take forever to make your drinks, even Starbucks makes you wait 20 minutes! These other coffee shops make it seem like they're doing some complex chemistry experiment how long it takes for just a drink! But this young guy he makes the drink in under 5 min and it tastes 10x better anything those other coffee shops make, but in less than half the time! I really thought maybe it was really hard making drinks, but this young dude makes it look like a walk in the park, the speed and ease he cranks out the drinks. I think Uzbekistan people must be just built different! and he was also so kind and pleasant taking the time to explain and answer all our questions. Some of these other places wouldn't even bother or make it feel like you're pulling a nail from them the way they grimace. He was so nice we wanted to give a tip, but he even said he didn't want us to. He'd happily accept just our enjoying the food and drinks and would appreciate if we left a review for his cafe. just had to leave a review. Especially after how nice he is. And hearing his story and how it's a family run bakery with the mom baking and son making drinks and running front counter. And an authentic European bakery!! Wow! Aren't we so glad they moved into our neighborhood! A Real quality cafe I didn't even know what I was missing until I stepped into this little shop by mere chance! I Will definitely come by again. And anyone else who discovers this little gem would be so lucky and blessed as us!

I am grateful that their style seems to be to use less sugar than other bakeries. You can enjoy the sweetness without being overwhelmed by the sugar content.

Later, AG was craving a coffee drink, so the oldest and youngest generation hopped in to the car and went out to get drinks and desserts. Sweet Granddaughter was having a blast, getting attention from 3 of her favorite adults, PLUS getting to pick her own sweets. What more could a six year old want? She's pretty discerning about baked goods, and even got her own tray. We had to pare back some of her selections.

Thankfully for us, their next door neighbor (Ihop) spared a couple of forks for us. Management could do better.
