    My niece and I came to Little Provence Cafe in Arcadia for brunch and lattes. When we pulled into the small parking lot behind them, many of the spaces were taken and the ones remaining were business specific. We ended up parking across the street in the plaza with LA Fitness, and walked over. At this little cafe, you order and pay with the cashier and seat yourself. My niece had their Avocado Toast ($14.95) and a Banana Bread Latte ($?) with oat milk. I had their Breakfast Crepe ($17.49) and a Brown Bourbon Pecan Latte ($5.95). They don't put much effort into the presentation here. Or if they do, it doesn't show. I asked staff during my coffee order if they do latte art and they don't. Also the food was presented pretty casually. The breakfast crepe was filled with 2 eggs, 2 crispy bacon, red onions, sharp cheddar cheese and their house piquant sauce on the side. The crispy bacon was perfectly made. Both of us finished all of our food and enjoyed every bite, but the drinks were a different story. After a few sips we decided it was not worth the sugar and calories and left without taking the drinks with us. Overall a decent place to grab a bite, but not somewhere I would come back for a latte.

    I came here for the first time based on a friend's recommendation. This place is small but looks charming with a covered outdoor seating area. It also has a small indoor seating area. You have to place your order at the counter. The menu is on a big overhead display (which is hard to read). You can also pick up a regular menu at the counter. After you place your order, you help yourself to beverages and a table. They give you a number to place on your table and your order will be brought to you. Both my friend and I ordered the "signature" roast beef sandwich with ciabatta bread. The only difference is that I ordered half a sandwich with a side of arugula salad. My friend ordered the full sandwich. My friend's sandwich came out first even though I had places my order before her. I also noticed that other people that had placed their order after me had also gotten their food. I waited a long time for my food. When my sandwich and salad finally arrived, I noticed immediately how different my sandwich looks compared to my friend's sandwich. We had ordered the same sandwich! My friend's sandwich looked pretty liked a professionally made sandwich whereas my sandwich looked liked something someone would have thrown together at home in a hurry. My sandwich has less meat and less mushrooms. My arugula salad was also disappointing. There were a lot of wilted arugulas clumped together in my salad. I had to return it to have it remade. My roast beef sandwich and salad tasted just okay; nothing special. I could have made a better looking sandwich. I would suggest NOT ordering a half sandwich. The parking lot for this place is rather small. It cannot even accommodate lunch time crowd on a Monday. I can image how difficult it would be to find parking here on a weekend. Overall I was not impressed with this place.

    Cute hidden French cafe gem in SGV. Cute ambiance with indoor and outdoor covered patio seating. Transports you back to Provence, France. I ordered a raspberry croissant, matcha latte and turkey sausage burritos. I'll definitely come back and try their French onion soup.

    Little Provence Cafe has a neat vibe that makes you feel like you've escaped the typical Arcadia strip-mall scene. My sandwich was only alright--nothing bad, just not very memorable. That said, I would go back and try something else on the menu.

    Chicken de provence

    I passed by this place many times and finally had a chance to stop by. I got a chicken club de provence with ham. The order took nearly 20 minutes to arrive. The sandwich was delicious. The meat looked dry at first but was actually quite juicy. The ham was not the regular ham and had a more smoky savory taste. The generous slices of tomato and lettuce helped give a nice texture break. The bun also didn't become soggy or break when the juices were leaking out of the meats. Overall, great food and great service. The only issue was the order taking 20 minutes to arrive. At least I know the sandwich was freshly made to order. I will be back.

    I finally tried this place for brunch after passing by it for so many times. I ordered build-your-own omelette with mozzarella, spinach, and mushrooms. It came with a cup of salad on the side which was refreshing with the tangy vinaigrette dressing. I liked the sautéed mushrooms and spinach with their good seasoning. I also ordered their mixed berries sweet crepe. I didn't like this one at all because the crepe was not soft and it was like a thick layer as a bread dough. The smell of this crepe was not pleasant either. It was not good. Not recommend their crepe. On the other hand, the French toast was good with boriche bread. It tasted good with a balance of sweet and buttery. Added eggs and bacons for combo. Great portion for around $20. Berries, fruits, and salads tasted fresh here. Pistachio croissant was okay with flaky and crispy layers. It also had a pistachio cream filling inside. Not too sweet and it was good. But I think it would be better if it was warmed. I think the portion sizes were good for a brunch. Nice chairs and tables inside to try to create the feel of a cafe in Paris.

    Can a place be gregarious? If so, then this place would definitely qualify. The menu is gregarious. The setup is cozy. The food is delicious. And even though I recently just came across this café, it feels like I've known it all along. This is the type of familiarity that I mean when I say that it is gregarious. I read on Instagram recently that life is a series of phases that create the tapestry of your personality. I am so glad to have come across Little Provence Café because now I can include it in the series of phases of my life too.

    5/5 for the atmosphere, 3.5/5 for the food. I've driven by this place several times, but finally stopped by this past weekend. The adorable patio section was such a pleasant surprise, with a water fountain, adorable French decor and music, and well shaded area. Inside the café, there are a couple of seats as well. The menu is written on a large board, but they have print out menus at the order encounter as well. You order the food first and find a seat after. Unfortunately, the espresso machine was broken when I went, so I opted for a cup of hot coffee and a Monte Cristo crêpe. The coffee was just OK, but I enjoyed the crêpe, it was savory from the ham and cheese and sweet from the berry sauce. The whip, whipped cream had a salted butteriness to it, which is surprisingly delicious. The vibe of the patio was very picturesque, and I really enjoyed my little brunch despite not being able to try their drink menu. But I'm glad I finally stopped by and hopefully will return when the espresso machine is working.

    Salmon sandwich

    We've driven by this café countless times and finally decided to give it a try this past weekend. The large covered patio is perfect for outdoor dining and it's pet-friendly. I ordered the ham quiche, a pistachio croissant, and an Americano. The quiche was delicious, it was rich and custardy, almost like a savory dessert. The quiche also came with perfectly crispy roasted potatoes. The Americano was served in a small mug, just the right portion. My husband ordered the salmon baguette sandwich and the Croque Fumé, an open-faced pastrami and cheese sandwich. The salmon baguette was light and flavorful, and although we couldn't finish the Croque Fumé, it reheated nicely in the air fryer two days later. We're already planning to come back to try their crepes and take advantage of their weekday happy hour. Friendly service, easy ordering at the counter, and a relaxed atmosphere. Note that everything is made to order so it may take a little longer when it's busy.

    Cute French shop in Arcadia with its own dedicated parking behind the building. The cafe has a nice interior with indoor and outdoor covered seating (order at front, and take a number for your table) They have a selection of coffee and tea, breakfast sandwiches and crepes and eggs/omelettes, and savory crepes, quiche, sandwiches as such for lunch/dinner. Overall a nice find for a sample of France in Arcadia

    Super cute spot, brought Grandma here for a treat. She was delighted with the decaf latte (cute foam art) and we shared a berry crepe and brownie. The server was incredibly kind, brought out an extra sharing plate and indulged in our questions. This is just five minutes up the road for Grandma so I think we have discovered a new spot for lunch/treats/decaf lattes.

    I was introduced to Little Provence Cafe when I visited their booth at Taste of Arcadia last month. It's a cute cafe on the corner or Baldwin and Naomi. There's parking in the rear and on the street. The cafe operates on a fast-casual concept where you order at the counter and it's then brought to your table. They have some indoor seating, with a larger outdoor patio. They offer an all-day menu with breakfast, lunch and dinner items available, most are French-inspired. Note the menu on the website is not as complete as the one on-site. For example, they offer many crepe dishes not on the website. I ordered 2 sandwiches to go, the Croque Monsieur and the Jambon Buerre. Both are usually served on baguettes, but alas, these are not delivered on Wednesdays, so mine were made on French rolls. The Croques I've had before were served on regular bread, so it was fine, perhaps could have used more bechamel sauce. I did taste the hint of nutmeg. The Jambon however, suffered from the lack of crunch and chew the baguette would have offered. I also got a ham and cheese croissant, which was deliciously flaky and savory. There are many other items on the menu I'd like to try, especially their breakfast items and crepes. They have wine for sale too, and serve wine, beer and coffee drinks.

    Sad Veggie sandwich with the smallest piece of eggplant!

    Cute cafe with lots of variety on the menu. We tried the crepes, breakfast burrito, French onion soup and veggie sandwich- eggplant was sooo tiny- the sandwich was a disappointment.

    Open today, Memorial day? No one picks up the phone. Thanks!

    Is patio seating area covered and safe for rain? planning on going this weekend but looks like forecast says it's going to rain

    Yes the patio is fully covered. It even has side panels.

    What time & days is the Happy Hour?

    Hello! We’re having a happy hour special right now (for a limited time) every day including weekends, from 3-5. HALF OFF EVERYTHING! Coffee, sandwiches, beer, wine, breakfast items, dinner entrees, all half off from 3-5, dine in only.

    Do you have any gluten free options?

    My son has a wheat allergy so I’m always watching out for GF options. Little Provence doesn’t offer GF bread so your options are only the salads and some desserts … and the coffees! ;) Enjoy!

    What time does it open? Yelp said 6:30 and a blonde employee told me 7 when I came in this morning at 6:45. I'm so excited to try it!

    Their hours are very unreliable. Even if you call no one picks up.

    Is this place open now?

    Hi Jason! Unfortunately we are not open yet... We are waiting on our electrical panels to deliver, and once it does we are about a month away from opening. Our most updated delivery deadline will line us up for an opening in early January. If that…

We ended up getting a vanilla cloud cold brew and a butterfly floral latte. Both are delicious! I love myself a strong coffee flavor, so when I saw they had one of my favorite things ever (cold brew), I was practically jumping up and down for joy. I was not disappointed, as the coffee flavor punches through and makes itself very known. One of my favorite sips I've had in a while. The floral latte was really tasty too! You can really taste the distinct flavors, and its nice and creamy without being super overwhelmingly rich. Definitely recommend. Overall, my first experience with Fika Fika was very positive! I'll be coming back for some more cold brew for sure! Also want to try their ice cream. Some of the items are shaped like super cute pandas and capybaras so I want to give that a try as well. Fika Fika gets an 8.5/10 rating and a recommend from me!!

Came here with three other friends on a saturday afternoon. Josh created the most immaculate vibes in his lovely home and put together such a thoughtful, delicious food/coffee pairing with his partner, Mei. He was also incredibly knowledgeable about coffee and we learned so much from him from brewing methods to his favorite cafes in LA. The service was next level! Additionally, every course was memorable and some highlights include the cold brew, the biscuits (perfectly buttery), the plum juice inspired palette cleanser, and the espresso take on boba milk tea. I would totally come back to try their new season. There isn't any comparable experience in the world.

Josh and Mei create the coziest intimate space in their San Gabriel home. Like stepping into your best friend's place who happens to work in fine dining and be a coffee expert. There are different Seasons to Ahma and for this particular one, Taiwan is the Muse and coffee is its medium. My limited discernment between good coffee and bad coffee is acidity--sour and bitter, bleh. Or watered down. I don't douse my coffee with milk (anymore) because of lactose intolerance. But here, Coffee can be strong and bold, or brewed to possess properties that taste more like tea. And decaf (!) could have notes of whiskey without any of its alcohol. Particular care has been given to serve your cold brew in a frozen glass, or hot pour over in a warm pink cup. Josh has all the latest gadgets if you are into the coffee scene. But even if you're not, observing him brew you an espresso is an act of joy, not the beleaguered coffee pot in the workplace break room, but sharing in something worth its time and precision and experience. But because this is coffee, there is also something interesting to pair with it. A blooming osmanthus jelly, translucent and floral and fragrant. A delightfully nutty and buttery biscuit, its recipe took five years to perfect, with pineapple wintermelon jelly and delicate egg yolk shavings. A fried popcorn chicken cutlet with Thai basil pesto sandwich with just the right amount of crunch. The total amount of caffeine came in just about 2 cups of coffee, and I left pretty satisfied, but this being San Gabriel, grabbed some dim sum to go afterwards. The experience was 2.5 hours, and there were a total of 4 guests served at a time. The menu changes periodically and they will return in October if you want to try the next Season.
