Tekosu in Arcadia has become a reliable spot for us whenever we're craving a biscoff latte or…read morematcha latte. Those are our usual orders, and both have consistently delivered on flavor. It's nice to have a place where we can order our favorites and know we're going to enjoy them each time. What keeps us coming back is the consistency. With other coffee shops, a drink can be great one visit and noticeably different the next, but our experience with Tekosu has been dependable. Neither drink has felt like a hit-or-miss order, and that makes a difference when you're spending money on something you're looking forward to. The pricing is similar to other coffee shops in the area, so I wouldn't necessarily call it a bargain, but I'm happy to pay a little more for a drink that meets my expectations. I'd rather spend money on something I know I'll enjoy than take a chance and leave disappointed. Overall, Tekosu is an easy choice for us. If you enjoy biscoff lattes or matcha lattes, I'd definitely recommend giving them a try. Both have been solid go-to orders that keep us coming back.

Came here for a quick matcha and was pleasantly surprised by the quality! The baristas here were…read moresuper nice and service was pretty fast with our drinks. My friend and I ordered their Coconut Matcha Cloud and Matcha Sweet Cream Top. Now i'm usually not a fan of the coconut water matchas that have been trending but this place definitely does it nicely! After stirring the matcha with the coconut water, it makes a refreshing drink for any hot day in the SGV. The more class matcha latte was also great, loved the color and foamy cream top. The interior is pretty minimalist, white walls with white marble tables, a good place to lock in a focus on some work. There were a good amount of people in there on their laptops.

My only complaint is the quality of the clear to-go cups. I've gotten drinks to go twice now, and both times I've had issues with either the cup breaking or the lid not snapping securely into place. Unfortunately, it did cause my coffee to spill in my car and all over my outfit, which was definitely frustrating. That being said, I don't think that reflects on the coffee or the staff at all. The service has always been nice, and the space itself is spacious and comfortable. I'd definitely come back, I just hope they consider switching to sturdier to-go cups!

The drinks are actually really good and at a price you can't complain about. 2 crafted coffee drinks at $8! Amazing! It was kind of busy but not really. Worth the 11 minute wait. Friendly suggestion to the owner would be to try to shorten the time for food. I'd love to try that beef burrito but he mentioned it was a 30m wait. I get it though. In order to offer such a good deal, costs have to be saved somewhere. Highly recommended yall!

If it wasn't for Chaffee, I would probably never walk upstairs in this plaza. I definitely have to…read moresay that I have been here twice and both experience has been great. Staff acknowledges you right away. Offers a sample of their tea. You can order at the counter and they tea tasting rooms from what I have read in the reviews. My husband has enjoyed their milk teas (913 Kings Oolong tea) and I have really enjoyed their soft serve! (Tie Guan Ying Oolong ice cream) What really impresses us is the milk tea, once you order and pay at the front counter you walk to the back where they make it fresh. You can smell the tea brewing. So if you are looking for a spot that is fast, this isn't your spot but trust me, it is worth it! Staff are really nice and I definitely would recommend this spot if you are true tea enthusiast! Chaffee gets 2 thumbs up from this Yelper. Tips: *Credit card accepted *Wifi available *Shared parking lot with other businesses (i.e. Meet Fresh, Summer Roll, Green Zone, etc.) *Located upstairs *Seating area in the back. *They allow samples of some of their teas.

I am a fan of BenGong's Tea as they are the definition of boba drinks done right. Each drink is…read moremade with real, freshly, brewed tea or fresh fruits... none of that powder crap. The quality of their teas are also regarded as high-quality as you can taste the genuine tea fragrances in the drink despite the added milk or toppings. They have unique tea flavors and toppings that differentiates them from so many other boba houses in the 626 area. 1. Pistachio Coconut Velvet (5/5) A summer/seasonal drink that is worth raving about. It's super refreshing from the coconut water, yet creamy and luxurious from the velvety pistachio cream. They are generous with the pistachio bits that they coat on top of the pistachio foam. I devoured this drink it less then 2 minutes and almost went back for a 2nd cup. 2. Tea-cube Special (5/5) This is a simple, yet, satisfying cup of traditional milk tea. It's made from a black tea base + milk + tea-cube topping. The tea-cube is made from fresh tea then made into a jelly cubes. Super creative, yet delicious. It pairs well with almost any milk tea based drinks. 3. Mango Pomelo Sago (4/5) If you like mangos and like fruity drinks, then this is a good choice. It comes with sago toppings, which pairs well with the drink. When it's fresh and icy, it's super refreshing. However, if you wait too long and it melts, the drink can get a bit too sweet. 4. Osmanthus Rice Milk Tea (4.5/5) This drink is a Jasmine tea base with osmanthus rice paste, milk and crystal boba. You certainly can taste the osmanthus flavor. My favorite thing to do is get it with their house-special tea-cubes. My go-to boba place whenever I am in the area.

You will not be disappointed if you try it, you can tell they make it fresh too. Their tea is also top tier it's so refreshing and I love how their ice and sweetness amounts are already perfect. The interior is so pretty and always clean inside. The workers are always friendly as well. There is always a line but I think it's the worth the wait. I definitely recommend if you've never tried before!

I also sometimes get the green milk tea with 50% or 75% sugar which is great if you enjoy a drink with a subtle sweetness. The customer service is speedy and attentive too.

On weekdays, I've never had an issue getting a table but on weekends, the tables can get filled towards the evening if your planning to get work done (:

SGV Passport x Nest Tea House!…read more My wife and I dropped by to get the redemptions for the free Green Milk Tea w/ Boba. The location is spacious and there's plenty of parking. The staff took care of us quickly. We also ordered an Oolong Tea as well. Per the staff they don't offer any milk alternatives just as an FYI. There are multiple entrances/exits at this location and customers were working/studying while we were there. There's plenty of seating and the ambiance is really quiet almost like a library with classical music playing. The Green Milk Tea was good and the Oolong Tea had a nice roasted flavor. The pricing was affordable and seems to be a low key type of bubble tea spot. Overall it was solid. ( ^_^)b

If you visit, I also highly recommend the Goki Mocha, made with rich Oaxacan chocolate. It's been my favorite drink there for years. The service is always wonderful, and you can tell this place is built with so much love and heart. The family is incredibly kind, and I love supporting their business. If you're in the area, definitely give Goki Cafe a try!

There is a small parking lot to park in. I love the bright colors and inviting decor. Drinks: I've tried their horchata latte and goki latte. I enjoyed the boldness of the coffee. It is strong enough to taste through the milk and other flavors in each drink. I haven't tried their baked goods yet but one day I will. Definitely recommend the Goki latte. Service/Ambiance: Family owned coffee shop, which can be felt through the staff and interactions. Great place to come to if you have toddlers that enjoy watching the trains. Overall, I would recommend Goki for their warm and welcoming ambiance and delicious coffee drinks.
