    Horchata latte
    Sam B.

    #191 in my Coffeeshop Chronicles. I had just finished my eye exam across the street and was in desperate need for caffeine, so I used my handy dandy Yelp account to search for clues, which led me here. (If you didn't recognize the Blues Clues reference, it was before your time). Located inside the mall, I took the stairs to the second floor and there it was. I spied with my little eye a corner stall with baristas brewing coffee and other craft drinks. (Another childhood reference). After checking out the menu, I ordered their Horchata latte and added horchata cold foam. The drink was pretty good, and satisfied both my caffeine needs and my sweet tooth cravings. ****************** My Ratings: 1 Star: Terrible; just thinking about it makes me angry. 2 Stars: Wasn't a fan so Not likely to return. 3 Stars: Meh. Average. Might return if others drag me. 4 Stars: Yum! Likely to return. 5 Stars: Amazing! Would plan my day around it.

    Cafe de Olla Cold Brew & Strawberry Horchata Cold Brew

    I've been in the area often the past year but most notably in the Montebello Town Center to play Pokémon Go especially during the rainy or extremely hot days. I've seen Mobar Coffee every single time but just thought nothing of it while assuming it was one of those typical boring mall-esque spots. However, after a more thorough search, I saw some good reviews and great tasting items so we decided to try it out the next time we were in the area! We ordered their Cafe de Olla Cold Brew and Strawberry Horchata Cold Brew. The CBs itself were a-okay, nothing special but the cold foams were delicious! Our favorite drink was easily the strawberry horchata one. Service was nice and friendly. They were very efficient and our drinks came out fairly quickly.

    I was out Mother's Day shopping and was craving a good coffee, so I decided to try a new spot. I'm very picky when it comes to coffee because some drinks can trigger my anxiety if they're too strong or bitter. The Yelp reviews were really high, so I figured I'd give it a shot and let me tell you, it did NOT disappoint!The coffee was perfect: sweet, smooth, and not overpowering at all. It had just the right balance of flavor without being too heavy. The service was quick, and the staff was very friendly and welcoming.The ambiance was chill and relaxed, especially considering it's located near a play area. It made for a pleasant experience overall. My only downside is that there really isn't a sitting area to enjoy your drink and hang out for a while, which would have made the experience even better.Overall, I was very happy with my visit and will definitely be back for another coffee!

    Coffee is always top knotch here. I commend this person that's doing everything by themselves. Ambiance is very simple and to the point. Will be back again soon

    I ordered the Cafe de Olla ($6.75 - medium - iced - regular milk). This is weak coffee. I continued to feel sleepy after its consumption. It's a harmless, boring drink. It tastes like powdery milk tea. I arrived at Mobar Coffee (Montebello) on Thursday (around 12:33PM). It's located inside the Montebello Mall (aka: "The Shops at Montebello"). This small business is on the 2nd floor. It's across Macy's, and it sits besides Kay Jewelers. Nearby parking is plentiful and simple. Staff is friendly, welcoming, and helpful. Staff greeted me with a smile, and staff eagerly explained their menu's options. Staff appeared well-informed and diligent. I ordered the Cafe de Olla ($6.75). The drink was ready in three minutes. Fairly quick. As mentioned, the Cafe de Olla ($6.75 - medium - iced - regular milk) did not taste bad. It's just unmemorable. I'd compare its flavor to milk tea. It had a chill milk & powder taste with a weak caffeine kick. Unfortunately, this Cafe de Olla borders on the edge of bland. On ambiance, I appreciate the attempt by Mobar Coffee (Montebello). The location has six round tables labelled "Mobar." Surprisingly, these tables are near electrical outlets. There's about three electrical outlets for electronic devices by these tables which is a monumental achievement for a generic mall vendor. Mobar Coffee (Montebello) is also conveniently located beside the Kids Play Area which allows families to take a breather from their busy kiddos if searching for a light rest. The location is also relatively clean and well-ventilated since it's in a well-maintained mall. Overall, Mobar Coffee (Montebello) offers adequate drinks. Its drinks are fairly standard and affordable, but it's not remarkable. It's a possible option if meandering nearby. 4 out of 5

    I tried the cafe de olla foam cold brew and it was delicious! The flavor was perfect and not too sweet! The girl working at the counter was very sweet and patient with all my questions! It is in the mall so there is no place to sit

    Making my drink! The Vanilla cinnamon
    Andrew H.

    Wow! Tasty! My work got this for us and it was a great surprise!! So very tasty! I asked what was their signature drink got the hot vanilla cinnamon. Fantastic! Friendly people working there and it created a great atmosphere! I appreciate them for great service.

    Café de olla late and strawberry lemonade
    Dania J.

    Amazing coffee. I wasn't expecting it to be this good. We arrived early to the mall and decided to grab a coffee while I waited for the stores to open. I ordered the cafe de olla late and a strawberry lemonade. Both were perfectly made. Strawberry ke made is the perfect amount of sweet and refreshing. The cafe de olla late was smooth and creamy. Service was great and fast. It's a mall coffee shop so it's open space . No tables really but the mall has some.

    Strawberry matcha
    Andrea F.

    I've passed this place multiple times and I finally decided to come and I got a strawberry matcha, it was very sweet, tasted like vanilla and can hardly taste the matcha. Hardly tasted strawberry, it only has a couple dried strawberries on it and vanilla cold foam. Nothing strawberry matcha about it lol. The color of the matcha wasn't the best and the service was fine. I got a medium size and paid almost nine dollars for a drink that tasted bad.

    Peppermint mocha latte
    Miso J.

    Located on the second floor of the Montebello mall near forever 21, this place is a convenient coffee shop for on the go coffee while shopping since there is no seating here. The staff are nice and friendly and they made a few recommendations for my first time. I think this spot is a great alternative to Starbucks where they have the holiday speciality drinks but I would come here for high quality coffee. Parking: plenty of lot parking

    Horchata Latte
    Mercedes R.

    Best little coffee gem. For some reason Montebello mall doesn't have any coffee options except for the Starbucks inside Macy's. I think it's so weird. So I was excited when this place opened up. I have tried the mocha latte and the horchata latte. Both are great!

    Ray V.

    Always friendly service! The coffee is roasted to perfection with a hint of sweetness. Best coffee around definitely recommend to whoever is in the area!

    Are they closed in Sundays now?

    No, they are open on Sundays, with shortened hours, I know they open at 7:00 on Sundays, I believe they close early, like 12:00 noon.

The only thing I would note is that the lychee flavor is not really there - I'd consider this a regular espresso tonic instead of a lychee-forward one. This didn't really bother me though, because I downed the whole drink My husband got the hojicha latte, which was smooth with a nice roasted flavor that didn't get lost under the milk. I also appreciated that they asked whether he wanted sugar at all rather than assuming a default sweetness level. It was actually his first time having a hojicha latte unsweetened, and he really enjoyed it. The space itself is pretty bare-bones, so I wouldn't necessarily come here for the super aesthetic cafe experience. But it's comfortable and functional - there's a row of bench seating with tables and chairs opposite it. The seats are actually padded, which makes it a nice spot to sit for a chat, or to get some work done. Street parking was plentiful when we went, and I believe there's also a small attached lot. There was also a baker set up on-site when we stopped by. They were selling things like salt bread and sandwiches, so of course we grabbed something to support them. I thought that was such a cute touch and would love to see more local cafes doing little collaborations like this.

The cloudy was a very interesting combination of pear and date, I believe, with overtones of coffee and undertones of tangy/sour-ness from the date. It was really... interesting, and not something I've seen elsewhere. Would recommend trying it, if you like chasing signatures and getting a variety of tastes, but it wasn't for me. On the other hand, we liked their jasmine latte a lot. Not only did it have that jasmine tea flavor, it was also a great latte in itself which we thoroughly enjoyed.

The coffee was well-made - it wasn't burnt, overly bitter, or sour, so the extraction seemed solid. However, the flavor felt flat and watered down. It lacked the aroma, body, and rich roasted notes that make a cup memorable. Nothing really stood out, leaving it tasting more diluted than satisfying. Also, I don't think the barista could froth the coffee well. Instead of a nice velvety, dense froth, the froth was a bubbly foam (see photo). Food - 3/5. I visited around 9 a.m., but the pastry selection was surprisingly limited (see photo). The pastries also didn't taste particularly fresh; they had more of the texture and flavor you'd expect from pastries sitting out later in the day rather than freshly baked items you'd hope to find early in the morning. The café has a modern, hip vibe and a warm, inviting atmosphere. It's spacious, with plenty of seating, making it a pleasant place to spend some time. Overall, Smoking Tiger Coffee Lab is a fine neighborhood café if you're looking for a comfortable place to sit and enjoy a coffee. Unfortunately, neither the coffee nor the food left much of an impression. Nothing was particularly bad, but nothing really stood out either. While the ambiance is probably its strongest point, the coffee is just average.
