Very good neighborhood coffee shop--thankful I live walking distance from here its kind of a hidden gem. coffees here are delicious and strong...very good quality. pricing is more fair compared to the other coffee shops in the area. their strawberry matcha is also good too so I recommend trying that as well. Usually I go for a simple iced caramel latte and it's literal perfection. love the staff here super friendly and hardworking people. give this place a go if you're in the area! its right across the street from bloomingdales and next to bjs! read more

I've been here a couple of times but always forget to review it... well that ends today. Came here with a friend to catch up and suggested we stop by for a quick bite before heading to the Galleria. The cashier working there was extremely friendly! I ended up with a house coffee and a jalapeño cheddar bagel. The coffee is ok although I think their specialty coffee drinks are a little better. Can't go wrong with a bagel and cream cheese. I notice they now have a sign where you can only work on a laptop for an hour (I've worked on a laptop there in the past and stayed for2 but I don't think it was a rule back then). With that said, this is a nice place to grab a light bite and read or chat with a friend while there. read more

This really is like 2.5 stars. Maybe it was just my order but I got an iced pistachio latte and it wasn't good at all. I usually love pistachio anything but this wasn't it at all. My husband agreed that it wasn't good at all. Maybe I'd have to try something else. But I won't be back. Got dropped off. Not sure of the parking situation. read more

Stopped in while waiting for my car at the dealer. Was pleasantly surprised by this cute little cafe. The egg bites were super yummy and affordable ($6 for two). The perfect little bite I was looking for. I'm so over all these mediocre $15-20 breakfast sandwiches. The mocha was also soooo good. And this is coming from a mocha snob. Super rich dark chocolate and espresso. Definitely more on the chocolatey/rich side. And a good amount of drink as well (a little bigger than a Starbucks grande). I'll definitely be coming back if I'm in the area. read more

The seating inside is a bit more limited, but if the weather is good you should have no issues finding a seat outside.

The pistachio latte is one of the best drinks I've ever had in my life. I actually savored every last drop of that coffee haha and I don't even talk about coffee like that . Also, the café has such an artistic, cultural feel. You can tell you're supporting a small business, but in the best way . Support small business!! I felt like I was traveling somewhere else in the world when I went here and I couldn't eat the pastries because I'm vegan, but they looked so decadent. There's also a beautiful fountain right across the street. If you want to sit outside somewhere pretty after you get your drink. I will definitely be back. The service was sweet and efficient. I'm still dreaming about that pistachio latte. read more

went to check out this place for some coffee and heard they were known for their pistachio latte. Lately I've been into horchata lattes, and they had both ... so we got both! LMAO. both were really good, but I definitely liked the pistachio latte more (I can see why it's so popular). The pistachio flavor is really strong and they add in crushed pistachios to add a bit more texture to the drink. For both the horchata latte & the pistachio, they had good flavors, but I barely tasted coffee in the drink. For coffees with such strong flavors, I feel like it also needs to have a more stronger coffee flavor to have a better balance. Other than that, the service and place were very nice :) read more

The latte that I ordered was very nice. My experience was marred by the individuals who showed up at the outside tables, where I was, and began smoking in front of the No Smoking signs. The pleasant and efficient staff let me know that nothing could be done because the owner chooses to look the other way, although it is against Glendale Fresh Air laws.

Listen I am a sucker for pistachio lattes and this one by far has to be my favorite! It is so rich and creamy, you can taste the nuttiness and the richness of the coffee. I really enjoyed the little crushed pieces of pistachio as it gave it a nice crunch. I also tried the white mocha latte, but this one was TOO sweet for me. It didn't have a flavor that really stood out to me. As we ordered we also saw this lovely slice of NY cheesecake & couldn't resist. It was so smooth and delicious! It had the right texture of creaminess and it wasn't overly sweet! Only thing here was the price we spent $26 on two medium iced lattes and a slice of cheesecake! It was a little too much for three items, but if I do come back it'll be for a pistachio latte alone. read more

The pistachio was my hot and Oh my God what a treat. Literally the best pistachio latte I've had to date. So good I came back the next morning and got my drink along with food.

The vibe at this coffee shop is chill. Older locals hang out on the front patio in the early mornings. Employees are polite and fast. My bf got a cold brew here once. He didn't like it, but I enjoyed its deep, smooth flavor. It was not bitter. On another occasion, I tried the Pistachio Latte ($5.25 - 12 oz). Menu prices were fair. They ran out of whipped cream this day, but crushed pistachios were used for garnish. The latte had a strong coffee flavor with less foam, which I preferred. Its texture was thicker, almost like some sort of emulsion with a slightly oily mouthfeel. I appreciated how the drink was not too sweet. However, the flavor was more like almond extract instead of pistachio. I probably wouldn't get it again. read more

After waiting for about 5 to 8 minutes, my drink came out, and it was really delicious. It wasn't too sweet and was very refreshing. (I actually try to avoid drinking sugary drinks because of my teeth. Ever since spending a fortune at the dentist a few years ago, I've been taking extra care of my teeth.

Still, the drink was so delicious and refreshing that I finished it in a flash, and the staff who took my order was so friendly, which was great.

So I just ordered a regular size yesterday, but it was so good that I drank it so fast.)

I had the…read moreRussian breakfast, which came with a crepe, salmon roe, butter, scrambled eggs , salmon and honey. My Mom had the eggs benedict, and my Dad had the blueberry waffle. Everything looked AMAZING. Seriously, Insta-worthy, even though we didn't take any photos, and tasted WONDERFUL. Well, except for the coffee, according to my Dad, but the man drinks a blend of CostCo and Starbucks coffee . . . so some fine coffee connoisseur he is not. I didn't taste it as I'm on Dr.'s orders to be off caffeine, so I had the armenian herb tea, which was lovely. The place is small, but beautifully decorated, and really cozy. The food came out quickly, and I thought it was well priced. I'd definitely come here again. Try it out quick before everyone figures out how good it is, and they have a line around the block!

Very disappointing experience--save your money…read more We were really looking forward to trying this place because everything online looked delicious. Unfortunately, the experience was the complete opposite. Despite having only six tables, the wait was extremely long. My Eggs Benedict with avocado and salmon took about 30 minutes, and my daughter's food arrived another 15 minutes later. My coffee came even later--and was the wrong drink. The salmon was dry, tough, and brown around the edges. The bread was dry and so difficult to cut that I practically gave up. The coffee tasted terrible. I went to the counter and politely explained the problems and asked if I could get something else. I was told no because the food is made to order. I also explained that I had ordered a hot espresso, not an iced coffee, but was told I hadn't specified that. The young woman said she would get the manager. We waited another 15 minutes, and no manager ever came to our table. So we left. For the prices they charge, I expect better food, better service, and--most importantly--some effort to make things right when a customer is unhappy.

If you're going to charge customers extra for lemon, at least provide a whole lemon or a reasonable amount. Charging several dollars for a few paper-thin slices of lemon just feels incredibly cheap and unreasonable. It definitely left a bad impression, especially on a first-time customer.

Surprisingly I have one been to a Philz Coffee a couple of times before and it's been years since…read moreI've been! This was also my very first time at this location, and I must say it was quite a treat! The coffee shop is conveniently located right across from the Americana, so you can easily street park or park at the mall and walk over. It was busy when I arrived on a Friday afternoon, but there were still tables available both inside had outside. The chairs are not the comfiest, but the shop is still very clean and well maintained! When I approached the counter, I was greeted by the friendly employees who were busy preparing orders. This gave me the opportunity to peruse their unique menu and settle upon a latte to order. My sweet tooth was in effect and I opted for the Tiramisu latte with oat milk and was asked if sweet was ok! I thought it was so cool how you're able to customize the drink as you please and bonus points for no charge for nondairy milk. It was very affordable at $6.85. My latte came out pretty quickly and I marveled at the cocoa powdered topping. It truly tasted like a dessert and was so rich and indulgent yet somehow I didn't feel gross after drinking it. The oat milk was creamy and perfectly frothed and the espresso was well balanced. I had a dance class that night and it gave me just the right amount of energy to make it through the class yet still manage to sleep fine that night! I will definitely return next time I'm in the area as a few other menu items sounded equally enticing and the customer service was so impeccable!

Since it was my first time, I placed the order online. So I don't mess up the order and hold the line by deciding what to order. The pick up process was kind of confusing cause there were no sign for online order pick up. I had to go to the register and ask about the pick up. The young lady who helped was nice and explained how pick up works. Appreciate the helpfulness. This location has both indoor and outdoor seating area. There are several tables inside and I notice couple of tables outside. Store was very clean and well maintained. They also had sample cookies by the register for customers to try which was a nice gesture . This coffee shop is located in walking distance from Americana which makes it a great spot to grab coffee after shopping. There is street parking available and Americana/ Glendale Galleria are another option for parking. I will be back to try different coffees , since the menu looks different than other coffee places.

La Goccia in Glendale has been on my list for a while, and I finally had the chance to stop by during lunch. I ordered their famous Pistachio Latte, and it absolutely lived up to the hype... smooth, flavorful, and unique compared to the usual coffee shop offerings in Los Angeles. I also tried one of their Italian sandwiches, which was fresh and well balanced, the kind of quality you'd expect from a true Italian cafe. While enjoying my meal, I noticed another customer order an Affogato. It looked so good I couldn't resist getting one for dessert, and it was the perfect way to finish off the meal. The cafe itself has a cozy and welcoming vibe, making it a great spot whether you're grabbing a quick coffee or sitting down for lunch. Between the Pistachio Latte, the sandwich, and the Affogato, I left completely satisfied. If you're in Glendale looking for a unique coffee shop experience with standout drinks and food, La Goccia is worth the visit. read more

I was introduced to this place by one of my coworkers about a month ago and I have been back almost every day since then. I have officially stopped going to Starbuck across the street because of this place. Breakfast is served with fresh eggs and ingredients (that's a super plus in my book because I refuse to eat microwaved food). Snacks are delicious and fresh esp. the muffins! All the Grilled cheese sandwiches taste delicious and healthy, just like you would make it at home for your own kids (definitely not the greasy stuff you get at other places). Coffees and cappuccinos also taste great as well with reasonable sizes. OHHH and let me not forget the most important thing they have freshly squeezed orange juice daily! Very different from those standard coffee shops aroudn town....you can tell that everything is hand-picked according to quality and taste. Service is also wonderful, 2 lovely ladies that enjoy their work! read more

ok its not a bad place to grab your cappucino ,but people are using the tables like home, what iam trying to say is that soo many YOUNG LAZY ARMENIAN men are sitting all day and checking out all the female customers and smoking like hell, its a bad bad enviroment, i just have a question, how come owners of this cofee shop not saying anything to this LAZY ARMENIANS like ( you cant keep this tables for 2 to 3 hrs) with just 1 cup of cofee. this is not the only cofee shop with lots of YOUNG LAZY ARMENIANS sitting all day , youll see them in front of all the cofee shops in glendale or north hollywood area, since Brand blvd is busy street i guess YOUNG LAZY ARMENIANS choose this location. Other then that ihave nothing to say about laGOCCIA they have good cofee and sandwiches. read more

I would never go here again, I went last week and sat outside. I ordered a latte and this older lady was so rude, very impolite. Whatever I thought she was just having a rough day...so I go outside and drink my latte and take my book out to read and I can't even concentrate on my reading because the men outside where talking about the owner of the store not paying their employees and takes advantage of them because he pays cash only 8 per hour and no over time or raises ever! I couldn't believe it. I left and will report this to the FOX news investigation, I'm totally against people violating labor laws. Don't go, it's like supporting abuse. read more

This café is such a gem! The food is always so delicious and feels like it's made with a lot of care. They really look after you here the staff are friendly, welcoming, and go out of their way to make sure you're taken care of. Their coffee is absolutely amazing, definitely one of the best I've had around. On top of that, the service is consistently excellent. Whether I stop by for a quick bite or a full meal, I always leave happy. Highly recommend the turkey pesto sandwich and the iced horchata latte read more

It has a cute eclectic feel and I love that they support a lot of local community artists and artisans. Every so often they have curated and thematic coffee drinks. This past month it was an ode to "Gilmore Girls". But if you like your java simple, their cappuccinos and lattes are custom made and sweetened to your liking. The baristas are always friendly and very willing to cater to your taste buds. Even when annoying customers (like me) play Eeny-Meenie-Miny-Moe with various drink options, they refrain from rolling their eyes. I'm surprised because I'm rolling my own eyes at my sense of indecision. Also, they have seasonal offerings and infuse gourmet ingredients like butterscotch, rose water, strawberries with matcha, and even lemon curd in some of their recipes. As far as seating goes, it's an intimate little shop. But you can sip on your drink and snack on a pastry alongside their big picture windows, or you can enjoy their outdoor seating. If you have little ones, then the Adams Square Mini Park is just across the way along the colorful pedestrian crosswalk. And for those who enjoy art, the revolving installations from community artists inside the historical 1936 Streamline Moderne-style gas station, designed by architect W.A. Church is a treat.

The initial feel is that of a convenience store, but smaller. It's a cozy nook, though. They have mostly pre-made food options, but a good amount of variety (lots of sanwiches on different kinds of bread, and even a few sushi rolls!) at reasonable prices. They also have a good baked good selection. I ordered a Grande Strawberry-Banana smoothie, so I can't comment on the coffee. It was a good size for the $3.75 price tag, and is more frothy than what you might come to expect from a chain (the Jambas of the world). Some people like a more liquid smoothie and some don't. I generally do. The service was friendly and quick (although I was one of two customers in the establishment at around 2pm). There are a few tables and chairs. My impression is that Coffee Cup would be a welcome respite from the daily grind, and one that is unlikely to become swamped during busy hours. If you're walking around Brand and need something quick and inexpensive, this is a good choice.

Ordered at the counter and asked what their "RAF Latte" was and the guy mentioned it was for the customers who wanted them to be more on the sweeter side and less strong so I went for their Horchata latte. Took a few minutes to get my drink but as soon as I saw it, it looked absolutely delish! And it was. Super creamy, still on the sweeter side but the creaminess is what I loved most about it.
