We were on our walk yesterday, Wednesday around 2 pm. No vehicles on the drive thru yet, so we just walked up to the window.

Will have to come by more often!

Very clean with plenty of seating including a kind of lounge area in the rear. They are located in a large shopping center so parking is no problem at all. Friendly staff that was working hard. I had a Flat White which was served way to hot so by the time I could drink it I discovered that the espresso was burnt. So not a great drink. However my Son had the Sparkling Peach Matcha which he found to be both tasty & refreshing. This made the drinks a mixed bag LOL I'm only giving 3Stars because my drink just wasn't good. But everything else is great. So I will give them another try next time I'm in the area and hopefully I can give them 5Stars.

It's located right off of the Avery exit on the 5 freeway across from Del Taco and Jack In The Box. The shop is spacious and cute with tables for hanging out and lots of natural light. If you like having variety, they have lots of drinks here from milk and fruit teas to matcha, coffee, shakes, slushies and more. I recently got their Jasmine Milk Tea with boba in a 32 oz. super size for only $4.99 because of a promotion they had. I got it less sweet which was just right for me and I could still taste the tea flavor. I haven't tried the food here but they serve snacks like popcorn chicken and croffles that look really good. It's a great place for boba, especially when they have promotions going on because boba can be an expensive habit.

My mother used to bake coffee cake to perfection, it was my favorite of all things she made…read more Everywhere I go that has coffee cake available I purchase it but it never lives up to my mom's. E-bar broke that curse. Their crumbs are plentiful and big, the cake itself is moist and melts away in your mouth with all its buttery flavors. The truth is that everything they sell here, you can trust will be delicious. Fettuccini Alfredo? Delicious. Grilled cheese? Impossible to describe. Matcha Latte? Perfect. Black & White Mocha? OMG. It may be a little pricey, but it's worth every penny, well, there are no more Pennies so I suppose every nickel?

"Exercise is king; nutrition is queen. Put them together and you've got a kingdom." - Jack LaLanne…read more Tell me why I've never heard of this place before!?! It's a hidden gem. Healthy foods don't seem like a chore to eat anymore now that I found Toastique. Purple Heart smoothies: (6/10) I will admit that this was pretty bitter, but at least it was nice n fruity. Won't get again but it was worth a try. Smoked salmon toast: (8/10) When I saw this I immediately thought of the "clean girl" aesthetic. It was savory, delicious, and the salmon was not fried, so that's good. I would get this again. 3 cheese Italian: (7/10) It was good but not great. It had really good cheese, it was fresh, and it lived up to its name. The thing is, the prosciutto wasn't all that great and the dressing was way too salty. Overall, I think I would go here again for the vibes and good service. Food is a bit pricey, as the 3 cheese Italian was around $16. Thinking about getting the PB crunch next time. It was fun visiting California to get to experience Toastique and what LA has to offer!

The espresso was rich with plenty of body and the coconut was flavorful without being overly sweet. A nice touch: they didn't cover the drink at pickup, so I could actually see the quality (and that great foam) immediately. The shop itself is clean, welcoming, and has ample seating for actually sitting down to enjoy your coffee. Plus, the staff was very friendly and made the visit a breeze. Definitely a great experience.

And the coffee -- the most important part -- was genuinely excellent. I ordered a flat white, and it was one of the best I've had in the States. Unfortunately, the service was a letdown. It wasn't slow (I was the only customer at the counter), but the basic courtesy and warmth you'd expect at a coffee shop were completely missing. I greeted the barista cheerfully and tried to be friendly, but you would have thought I'd offended her personally. I get that everyone has off days -- maybe I reminded her of someone she didn't like -- but the customer who came in right after me was greeted with a warm smile and a cheerful "Good morning! The usual?" My thank-yous, on the other hand, were met with grunts and glares. All in all, it wasn't the best introduction to Reborn or the most pleasant way to start my day.

Nekter has unfortunately been one of the more disappointing customer service experiences I've had…read morein the area. When I walked in, it took several minutes for anyone to even acknowledge me--no greeting, no "we'll be right with you," nothing. I arrived about 35 minutes before closing, which is more than enough time to make a juice and still close by 7, but the blenders and juicers were already "done for the night." The frustrating part is that the business itself is actually spacious, clean, and has plenty of seating for customers. They also offer a decent selection of grab‑and‑go items, which makes the experience even more surprising because the setup clearly supports people coming in up until closing. They're generally accommodating with substitutions, but they can be a bit stingy with higher‑value ingredients, which doesn't help justify the price point. As someone who previously worked in and supervised the Whole Foods Market juice bar down the street, we would never deny a customer a beverage during business hours. Cleaning a blender takes about 30 seconds, and it's part of the job until the doors are actually closed. It was disappointing to be turned away when the store was still open. For feedback, the team could have at least offered an alternative option instead of shutting down the interaction entirely. I understand most of the staff are likely high school or college‑aged and eager to clock out, but a little courtesy and effort go a long way. I haven't been back since, which is a shame because the space itself has potential.
