Stopped by Nambah Coffee in La Verne and tried their Snickerdoodle Latte, and it was really good! I loved that I could actually taste the coffee and that it wasn't overpowered by sweetness. The inside of the shop is super cute and cozy, with seating available both indoors and outdoors. Customer service was excellent! Everyone was friendly, and our drinks came out really fast, which is always a plus. Overall, a great little coffee spot! I'll definitely be coming back to try more of their lattes!

Strawberry matcha

The strawberry matcha was not too sweet. Very balanced taste of matcha, strawberry and milk. Expect a long line but totally worth it.

Interior (Part 2)

I had a good experience at Nambah Coffee (La Verne). I ordered the Brown Coconut Specialty Latte ($8.25 - 16oz - Iced). It's two shots of espresso, coconut cold foam, coconut, browns sugar, and milk. The caffeine is enduring, but it's a little too milky. Fortunately, I eventually felt the caffeine after one hour. (Quick Note: The regular and large have the same amount of shots. This location is also very dog friendly. I observed leashed dogs relaxing inside this coffee shop.) I arrived at Nambah Coffee (La Verne) on Monday (around 7:58AM). Parking is convenient. The street signs say, "90 Minute Parking - 8AM to 9PM - Monday thru Saturday." Staff is EXEMPLARY. Staff's friendliness, eagerness to help, and bright smiles are a high point. I repeatedly observed Staff happily chatting with regulars. Staff (receipt says Tyrone) also happily answered all my questions while maintaining an almost Disneyland-like demeanor. Tyrone cheerfully brought my coffee to my table. And there were instances where Tyrone would happily pet and welcome the customers' dogs. My drink took about two minutes. Good time. As mentioned, I ordered the Brown Coconut Specialty Latte ($8.25 - 16oz - Iced). Personally, I disliked how it lacked a prominent coffee flavor; rather, it tasted somewhat watery & milky with hints of coconut. However, this coffee carries a hidden, resilient strength. To my utter shock, I felt energy arrive an hour after sipping. In addition, I also appreciate how the ice has holes which allows more liquid inside. Unfortunately, it felt like the ice was still CRAMMED inside that brew. There was so much ice! Regarding ambiance, Nambah Coffee (La Verne) is beautiful. The location has wonderful acoustics and music. It's also decorated lovingly. The business uses its space well. The well decorated spot resembles those "nice" coffee shops that we'd see on family friendly sitcoms. I literally heard several college students walk into this spot whispering how, "-this is such a hidden gem." Concerning utility, I liked that there's 10 interior tables. However, I only counted about two electrical outlets. There's customer internet with password, but the information is only accessible by asking Staff for the details. In addition, the location shows bathroom codes for customers; the male and female restrooms are located down the hall. I especially appreciated the location's cleanliness and good ventilation. Overall, Nambah Coffee (La Verne) is a charming coffee shop. The coffee is not spectacular, but there's integrity in the base ingredients. If you're already nearby, I would casually recommend. 4.6 out of 5

Looking for a coffee shop because I just dropped off my son at school and really needed caffeine. I saw this place had good reviews, so I decided to try it. I got large snickerdoodle iced coffee and they told me that the only difference with a large drink is more ice and more milk. If I want an extra shot, I have to pay extra. So basically I'm paying extra for ice and milk, and if I want the extra espresso shot, I still have to pay more. What's the point of getting a large? Very disappointing. It taste regular iced coffee but more milky nothing special about it. Also, got brown coconut it's actually really good at first didn't thought coconut and coffee will go together but the cold foam coconut it's actually really good. The ambiance is super nice and there are a lot of tables to sit at. It's a great place to grab coffee and chit-chat friends. I'd come back just for the vibe and to hang out, but not for the drinks.

I used to frequent this coffee shop while attending the university across the street several years ago. Conveniently located, it offers a great study space and, of course the necessary fuel to survive. It has since changed names and possibly owners, but it's still just as great as I remember. Tasty coffee and a fun vibe. I recently stopped by and was reminded how much I love the shop's décor, especially the exposed brick wall. The place has a lot of character, and the staff member who took my order was super chill. They also have a cute patio overlooking the university, and I love that they serve beer and wine too. Another thing that makes them stand out is the variety of events they host, like karaoke nights and yoga classes.

Snickerdoodle
Melanie B.

I love coming here and getting the Snickerdoodle Iced Latte, bonus points if I order it with oat milk lol. It's such a cozy little coffee shop tucked within downtown La Verne, and definitely worth stopping by!! And if I'm not getting the Snickerdoodle, my other go-to is the Heartthrob Iced Latte, which is another super solid choice If you want to avoid lines and the crowds that tend to fill up the shop, I'd recommend coming in earlier in the day. Sometimes the line gets pretty long and the wait can be a bit much. It can also get tricky finding a seat inside when it's busy, though you might have better luck outside if you don't mind sitting outdoors lol Overall, I really appreciate how nice the staff usually is :)

*Note: TDLR at the end of the review Brown Coconut (Seasonal): 6.8/10 You can definitely taste the coconut. On the milkier side, but you can still taste the espresso. It wasn't artificially over sweet which was great. My only qualm is the frickin price for the size. $8.25 for a 12oz?? Like bruh. I get it. It's across a campus in a nice area, but wtf. Drink was good, but no way in hell is it worth $8.25. Y'all can fight me on that idgaF. Service: 9/10 Everyone seems really friendly! The cashier was very nice and helped out with any drink corrections customers had. Ambiance: 6.5/10 So so crowded and mucho mucho cramped. Not the best study spot. I was lucky to nab a table next to an outlet, but not all are lucky. The tables inside are super super close to each other. Not my favorite. There are tables in the hallway, but no outlets. Street parking was easy to find because it was a Sunday, but as it got later in the day, parking started to fill up. TDLR: Expensive drinks. Okay study space. Tables are super close to each other and not many outlets. Place definitely gets super busy. Street parking only.

I tried Nambah Coffee for the first time and I honestly love the vibe here. It's such a cute spot to hang out. You can tell they really put thought into the decor. Their coffee is so good! We loved everything we tried. Definitely one of those places you keep thinking about and want to come back to. They also host monthly events, which makes it feel more like a community spot than just a coffee shop. I plan to come for their Pilates & matcha!! If you want to see what it looks like, I posted a video on TikTok @monicaerikaa or @monicascozycravings on Insta

Lobby/overflow area
Neethu I.

Nambah Coffee has such friendly staff and a really cute space that works well for both socializing and getting some work done. I thought it was interesting (and kind of fun!) that they double as a cafe with wine and beer!! There's seating both inside and outside! They have overflow seating in the lobby, which is nice & seems like it doubles into a Darty (day party) space on select Saturdays! As a study spot, only the indoor section had outlets, which made working a little tricky (unless you found a table inside) & the music inside was also a bit loud for my taste, but sitting in the lobby was perfect and much more comfortable! On the plus side, the WiFi was fast and stable, which is always appreciated. We ordered the brown sugar coconut matcha and the pandan matcha, and both were great! The coffee cake tasted good but was a little dry for my liking. While there isn't a dedicated parking lot, there's 90-minute and 3-hour street parking nearby, which was manageable. Overall, a nice spot with good drinks and a fun vibe!

Exterior

Cute coffee spot, plenty of seating inside as well as an outdoor patio with 2 large counter height tables/stools and perimeter seating. On a Sunday there's plenty of street parking or park in a paid lot across the street. Accessible parking in front too. There's usually a long line to the door but moves quickly. Service is quick and friendly. Some pastries for sale as well. The coffee and matcha are great. There are basics as well as flavored specialties, all delicious. I've been here to work as well as to catch up with friends and it's a great atmosphere for both. Bathrooms are outside of the shop but not outdoors. There's a code located inside. Love this spot!

Pandan matcha
Novia E.

I really love their pandan Matcha because you can taste their pandan, so good. I asked for less sweet because the barista told me that the drink itself is pretty sweet and I'm glad I adjusted my sweetness. they were pretty crowded for Sunday late afternoon, but I managed to find seats. Locate at near University of Laverne this is a good study spot and chill weekdays and weekends.

Pandan Matcha
Margaret R.

This place is super cute and has such a calm atmosphere! My friend took me here to try it out and I got hooked on their Pandan Matcha. It was sweet, but not overly sweet, just the way I like it. The matcha itself was very silky and smooth, not clumpy or coarse. The staff were lovely! Loved the vibes the workers gave off and helped me at the register when I had questions about sweetness levels! I will definitely be coming back! Maybe to try new items :P :-))

Menu
Millena P.

Let the cafe hopping continue. Parking: There's free street parking if you can find any. I parked in the private lot next to it. Ambiance/Environment: They have a small space with indoor and outdoor seating. It's pretty quiet, so it's a great spot to get a study session in. We visited on a late Saturday afternoon, and it was busy. Almost every table was filled, and there was a consistent line. Service: There were only two workers. The cashier that rung us up was nice and efficient. Throughput took a little over 5 min, which is pretty quick considering how busy it was. Drinks & pastries: 1) Snickerdoodle Latte - This contained brown sugar, vanilla, real butter, cinnamon, espresso, and milk. It sounds overwhelmingly sweet, but honestly the only thing I really tasted was cinnamon. Overall, I thought this drink was enjoyable especially for those who prefer their lattes on the sweeter end. 2) Heartthrob - This contained vanilla, white chocolate, cinnamon, espresso, and milk. The flavors mixed really well together. Nothing really overpowered each other. Again, this drink is enjoyable for those who like sweeter lattes. 3) Mango Matcha - This contained mango nectar, vanilla, cream, and ceremonial matcha. I thought the matcha part was okay. You can't really taste the matcha after mixing it. The mango was definitely overpowering. 4) Chocolate chip scone - This tasted as good as it looks. It's not too sweet, but it does get overwhelming. I recommend eating some and saving the rest for later. 5) Chocolate chip cookie - I looove cookies! Couldn't resist trying this too. The edges and middle sections were soft. There's a generous amount of chocolate chips, but it's not overly sweet! Pricing: Average prices for a coffee shop nowadays. We enjoyed their drinks and pastries. I'd love to come back and try their offerings and hopefully sit and enjoy the ambiance, if it isn't too busy.

Do they have a parking lot or is it street parking only?

There's a lot across the street with lots of parking as well as painted spaces in front of the restaurant.

Are there wall outlets for charging devices?

When I went there were plenty of people studying there yes

How many bathrooms are here?

men and woman's back hallway that's shared by the entire building

Is this a rebrand? Used to be called something else.

Cactus?

You can find parking on the street, or you can park in the lot. There isn't a parking meter anymore, so I'm not sure what the city guidelines are for payment, but your first two hours parking there are free! When walking towards the cafe, you will see a sign for a pub. You can walk inside and turn towards the right. The cafe and baristas are located towards the very back! Yet, once you go inside, you notice all the seating that is available. We have asked towards the baristas, and used a little tablet to scan their menu. We ended up ordering a tonic and a banana cold brew. They also had food items! We had chosen their breakfast burrito. Their coffee is strong and you can feel the caffeine. Yet, the sweetness is perfect and can mask your actual caffeine intake! It's amazing how they can do both. Their burrito was very savory and delicious as well. It's always quick and clean at this cafe. The baristas are always sweet. My fiancé and I do come here to do work, and their WiFi is decent, too. I highly recommend this cafe if you're ever in the area!

The drink was pretty good. I did get the biscoff taste, ice level was good, and it definitely was creamy. The only thing that was missing was the coffee wasn't very strong. Perhaps the drink would have been better with regular or oat milk or maybe an extra shot of coffee. Not sure, but overall I would give it a 4 and I would come back again. Service was friendly!

Coworker's Paradise in North Pomona! (sorry if it sounds like I'm writing a Zillow listing, but I'm…read morejust trying to get this to show up in search results if anyone else is curious LOL) OUTLETS: Plenty of outlets!!! There's a set of steps with pillows on each step with a block of about six outlets beside them, and a really comfy, sinky couch (plus an ottoman and two comfy looking armchairs and a big table in the middle) with a set of two outlets on the wall and a star shaped power strip sticking out of the ground with six outlets coming out of it. There are also regular tables and it seems like there are outlets beside them as well. WIFI: The wifi is open (no password necessary), even though they have a password listed where you pick up your food (it's just Sanctuary Coffee). I tried to use one of the locked ones (the only one that made sense), but the wifi password didn't work, so I'm not sure why they have one listed. Regardless, albeit not the fastest wifi I've ever used, it's incredibly doable. I have been working remote here for 1.5 hrs and had almost no issues. MENU: For LA, relatively cheap. I am not a coffee or tea drinker, so I got the peach Italian soda, which was yummy. I believe it was about $4.89, which is not bad at all. I went to And Destroy in the Highland Park-ish area, and I believe an Italian soda with cream (cream is free here) was maybe $7-8. I'm used to paying more for drinks because the specialty (non coffee and tea) drinks are usually pricey, but this was one of the cheapest things on the menu. Also, you can claim a free pastry with your email and first name on their website (it sends you a voucher, just show the email). I got the banana bread, which was fine. I would've gotten zucchini, but it wasn't chocolate chip zucchini. ATMOSPHERE: Not too loud, the music is nice and chill and not very loud. There's cute art on the walls and homey looking lamps. It's the quintessential living room coffee shop, perhaps even rivaling Republik Coffee in Burbank in comfiness, noise level, aesthetic, and price (which is a bummer, because I likely will never be back - we just happened to be in North Pomona today, and I have no idea when we'd ever elect to drive this far again LOL). PARKING: It's in a little strip mall, so there's an actual aboveground lot with plenty of free parking (at least I think it's free, I got dropped off so I didn't pay much attention). Overall, I would highly recommend this cafe to anyone looking to cowork in a cozy atmosphere for relatively cheap in the North Pomona area. It checks all of my boxes except distance from home. I hope this review helps someone, because I always try to find this information on Yelp about new places to visit and it can be very difficult to find! BATHROOM: I believe there are two single person bathrooms like not stalls just one bathroom. Cute art and aesthetic inside, there are hooks on the walls for your stuff. The air dryer was not very strong and there were no paper towels or seat covers, but other than that there was a nice faucet and cute nice soap like homey soap you'd see in someone's house, and the lock worked fine.
