Espresso Tonic and scones so delicious! I tried also variety drinks however I felt like they are expensive and quality does not same as before and I keep giving it another chance hoping it will be better read more

A Korean style coffee house and bakery that I've come to really enjoy. I've been to the BP location a couple of times, but didn't realize they had a spot open in Cerritos. Big open space that is definitely geared towards people who need to work. Think Starbucks...but with better coffee and even better eats Garlic cream cheese is always fire, and I got to try the Corn Coffee this time. Delicious. If you've had corn snacks or corn ice cream before, that's the flavor profile. Overall, if I'm in the area, it is definitely somewhere I'd like to stop in. Great coffee and pastries with some very nice servers! read more

I really wanted to try their Dubai Chocolate Cookie and it did not disappoint. It was super yummy and had to try their drinks. We came around 2PM in the afternoon and there were some pastries left. There is tons of space to sit and seems like a nice place to study or meet with friends. Definitely would come back again and try more of their baked goods. read more

Tried Smoking tiger for the first time years ago in Fullerton while going to college in the area. When I heard of them coming to Cerritos I was so excited. Come here often to do work, lots of space but it gets packed. Strawberry matcha is always amazing, honestly all of their drinks are great. And especially their breads and pastries. So good, great atmosphere, and kind staff. read more

Smoking Tiger is worth visiting for the banana milk latte alone. That drink is what brought us in, and it absolutely delivered--it tastes just like banana pudding and is incredibly well done. The self-serve pastry and sandwich selection also looked fresh and tempting, with plenty of variety to choose from. Service can take a bit depending on timing, but the option to order ahead online makes it easy to plan around. A must-try if you're into unique coffee drinks--we'll definitely be back. read more

Absolutely love this place! Stop by here after a Pilates class with my mom and I'm so glad we stumbled upon it. The atmosphere is so calm and welcoming, it is definitely a place you can come to work, do homework and get things done. There were a lot of in-home bakery options and they all smelled so good. We grabbed a few things to take home and so far each item has been amazing. When we received our Matcha, the girl asked us if we wanted to make any accommodations to the drinks, which is something new because no other place has asked us this before. Prior to making the Matcha drinks there was no issue with my mom asking if she can have half of the Matcha that they add. Again, this was something other places have not accommodated her for. Overall, all the bakery items were fresh and delicious. Each item has so much flavor! I would definitely come back and recommend to anyone looking to grab a Matcha and some bakery items. read more

Came in around 2ish so there was less pastries to choose from but still had a lot of options, really like their cookies.

This coffee shop has a great selection of Korean baked goods. There's plenty of seating both inside and outside, making it a popular spot for people to hang out, study, or even work. I would definitely come back to try more of their baked goods. Service is quite fast too, drinks ordered and came out in a timely manner. read more

There are some unique and different pastries here at Smoking Tiger that you don't find at other pastry places. The different scones are a nice selection like matcha, ube, blueberry, Earl Grey, etc. and their sconkies are pretty good. One of my fave is the unique kimchee spam n cheese croissant and I also like the Kouign Aman but it always seem to be out. My least fave is probably the garlic cream cheese croissant as it just has way too much cheese in it but yea I can just scoop some out. The matcha drinks are pretty good here along with their coffee drinks. I enjoy the banana latte drink. There always seems to be a lot digital nomads working in the place whenever I visit as I see many laptops out. read more

I love coming to this spot in the morning -- it always smells amazing inside and they have a really nice selection of pastries. I always eye their cheesecake but haven't quite pulled the trigger on it yet. My go-to drink is either the Pineapple Express (jasmine tea with pineapple concentrate) or the Tiger Latte -- both are really solid options. The staff is super cool and the drinks come out quickly, which is always a plus. Their pastries are also really delicious and pair perfectly with the drinks. Just a really cozy, reliable place to start the day. read more

I was super excited to check out Smoking Tiger Bread Factory after trying their San Gabriel Coffee Lab on a previous trip down to SoCal. The Coffee Labs carry some pastries but nowhere near the selection of what they offer at the Bread Factory. We got a huge box of pastries including the spam musubi croissants, salt breads, and garlic cream cheese bread. Everything was delicious, especially once warmed up. The musubi croissants would be my top recommendation here! The fish roe salt bread had a little too much fish roe for my taste, since I wasn't expecting the inside to also be filled with roe. They also have a wide selection of sweet pastries, madeleines and cakes, but I am more of a savory person so we didn't try those. I also ordered the apple cider matcha which was surprisingly delicious and perfect for fall! read more

I really enjoyed this place. We arrived an hour prior to closing and it was still pretty busy. We all ordered a drink and grabbed a pastry. We found an empty table and waited for our orders. I ordered the seasonal peach latte and it was delicious. Make sure to stir it well so that the peach flavoring that is sitting at the bottom mixes well. My cousin had an iced chai and it was delcious. We grabbed a cheesecake to go and it was pretty good as it was not too sweet. The baristas were all friendly as they greeted us and thanked us for stopping by as we left. Wish we had this place in AZ! read more

Not my favorite place but I somehow keep coming back because it's a good location and they have a lot of space... Or at least that's what I tell myself but then when I actually show up they're always out of pastries and there's no seats left. I used to really like the mugwort drink they offer but I don't think they have it anymore, at least they didn't have it last time. I tried various coffees, none of which I thought were that good. Last time I was there they got our order wrong. We got a variety of pastries and most of them were dry, as usual. Honestly though, I'm sure I'll come back again because of convenience but it's just not the best in taste or quality. I did see a banana latte I was interested in though! read more

I probably stop by here more than I should, but the pastries here are just super good! They are always freshly made and have such a unique twist to them. I also love the modern aesthetics of the place, and just how spacious it is. It is definitely a good place to work/study as there are plenty of tables both inside and out to work at. The lines sometimes do get quite long, but it always moves by pretty quickly! From the looks of it, they do rotate some of their bread selections, but I feel whenever I go they always have a consistent few that I always see. If you dine in, they do offer to heat your pastries for you, so that is also a super nice touch. You honestly can't go wrong with any of their pastries. They have a wide selection from cookies, and scones to croissants and breads. Some of the pastries have a bigger twist than others, but for the most part I think they do well to make sure the unique twist compliments the pastries. I really love their croissant and spam masubi cross overs- the one with the kimchi and the one with the jalapeños are my favorite. I love how the saltiness of the spam compliments the crispy and flaky croissant. read more

Smoking Tiger Bread Factory - Mini Baby Latte, 6 oz. Sweet Corn Latte, Tiger Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Cerritos, California

Yummy bread and pastry selections, along with some pretty good sandwiches, and their delectable drinks - definitely it's the newest spot in the quite busy Cerritos / Artesia area. They have outdoor seating that is pet friendly where you can enjoy a good cup of matcha or coffee along with their oh so yummy buttered, garlic bread. Inside is spacious and clean, staff is super friendly and although their selection of breads are less than that of 85 Degrees; however, the quality of it, in my opinion, outshined that of 85. Definitely my new favorite spot to grab some breads to enjoy with my cup of matcha on their nice, shaded patio. Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Price: 4/5 Parking: 5/5 read more

Smoking Tiger Bread Factory - Chicken Pesto, Tuna Melt, Bulgogi Banh Mi, Banana Milk Latte, Uji Matcha Slush (summer limited) and some Garlic breads - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Cerritos, California

The first time I tried something from Smoking Tiger was at a pastry potluck at the office, and I knew I needed to come get more. It was the potato bread and it was and is spectacular! 5 stars alone for this item. Plenty of parking, not too crowded for a Sunday at 11:30am, but there was a consistent line at the ordering counter the entire 2 hours we were there. So many delectable pastries, cakes, coffees, beverages to choose from. There's also cold and hot sandwiches which I'll have to try next time. Staff is really nice and welcoming. They all vibing with each other which is always nice to see. This location used to be a bank so it's really spacious. It's got high ceilings and lotsa windows with plenty of seating inside as well as outside. Corn latte: Just ok. I didn't really taste the corn. Banana latte: yummmmmm! Potato bread: star of the show, main character energy, 10/10 SO good! I'll be coming here for this, always! Ham and cheese bread: good, not great. Matcha scone: good, but kinda dry, but the bits of mochi and chocolate chips are a pleasant surprise. Strawberry matcha scone: yummm! Cream is super sweet, but yummm! Kimchi musubi croissant: croissant was flaky and delicious. Not much of the kimchi flavor tho. Spam was spamming. Pressed croissant: wonderful! crunchy! not as sweet as I thought it would be, which was great. Oreo scone: yummmmm! Definitely coming back for more! read more

Omg the garlic cream cheese bread is a MUST. I'm not usually one who wants cream cheese but I could not get enough. The bread was so soft. Honey walnut custard bread was also really delicious and a nice sweet to a savory garlic. Spam masubi croissant was a different take but I prefer rice. A premium bread factory that I'd love to come back and enjoy coffee at. read more

I've tried every other smoking tiger spots, and this one is probably the most aesthetic and biggest location that I've been to! When you walk in, there is a pastry display on the right side with the drinks you can order at the counter. I love the drinks here at Swati, including the corn latte and all the Korean inspired specialty drinks that they make here. I always get their corn latte here with some pastries. All of the pastries are super soft and they make it fresh every day. The seating is both indoors and outdoor patio seating. Great group outings, study dates, or just a quick bread pick up spot. Check them out :) read more

I saw this place looking for matcha in Cerritos. I love the easy parking and the large space to spread out. I ordered the summer matcha latte( peach chunks), it was very good but a little sweet for my liking. The peach blueberry scones are FiRE! They are so good. The matcha scone was a little dry and tasteless for my taste buds. It has a great vibe, very clean and the workers are very welcoming. I definitely would recommend it as a go to spot. read more

I am at Smoking Tiger all of the time! A majority of the time, I am participating in the goodie bags through TooGoodToGo. If you don't know what TooGoodToGo is, it is an app where you can buy unsold food from restaurants and other businesses at a discounted price. This typically means that you wouldn't be able to pick what you get, but it is significantly cheaper. Luckily, everything at Smoking Tiger is good and I am always happy with the blind goodie bags. I got a selection of treats, but most notably this Italian Tuna Salad Sandwich. It is super weird, yet really good! It is a tuna salad with strong flavors of tomato, oregano, and black olives. It strangely works really well together, especially between two slices of their soft, pillowy bread.  If you don't want to gamble with a blind goodie bag, I think their selection of pastries at standard pricing is still very worth it, especially for some of my favorite items like mochi pie. read more

This is location is MUCH bigger than the Whittier and Rowland Heights locations that I've been to, I suppose since this is the "Bread Factory" location and not just a standard Smoking Tiger Coffee Lab. They have their mini cakes here too, which is great if you need to swing by with a smaller cake to a party. Towards the front, there's also a section you can purchase merchandise from, pick out some baked goods, and there is also a refrigerated section with bottled and canned drinks, premade cakes, and other foods. When you check out, you can sign up for their points program and they give you a buzzer to let you know when your food is ready if it needs to be warmed up. I feel like all of the locations have updated and I can no longer find my beloved chocolate mugwort latte anymore, but alas. I got another usual go to every time I see it, their banana milk latte. You can get other milk substitutes to for a nominal fee. Nicely sweet and was a decent pick me up. This drink only comes iced, but it's perfect for the warm day that I visited. I opted to get this less sweet and it was the perfect mid day pick me up. I also got their galbi musubi croissant, injeolmi madeleine (wasn't as much soybean powder on top of it compared to past pictures, but oh well), and a corn bread with cream and cornflakes inside. Overall, you can't go wrong with their pastries, not too sweet for the sweet ones and not too salty or oily for the savory ones. Definitely get them toasted. Seating can get a bit crowded, even with the larger location, so keep your eyes peeled if you want to snipe a seat inside. Overall, a solid, albeit busy location. read more

They have a large and beautiful space that accommodate working or studying people, a large drink selection, and gorgeous, aesthetically pleasing looking baked goods to choose from. It's an ideal place to gather content for Insta reels. LOL! The Hojicha Latte is good--not sweet (the description says it is sweetened by a hint of vanilla), mild tea taste and overall balanced as a tea/latte drink. Their very popular Garlic Cream Cheese Bread looks amazing and tastes good--heavy on the cream cheese followed by the garlic. I do wish the garlic flavor was more powerful though (but my sons loved it). Their Ube scone is quite good. I've never had much luck with my palate loving scones although I always fantasize that I love them. However, I enjoyed this scone because it was soft with the subtle Ube flavor coming through. I would have to say it's probably the best scone I've personally had--usually scones are too dense for me. The workers are busy and hard working. The cashier was friendly and helpful (although he was more informational than someone who wanted to recommend--like, is the scone better heated--Answer, either way is good, would you like it to be heated?). Drinks and breads were ready rather quickly. I enjoyed my visit here. read more

Smoking Tiger Bread Factory - The Ube scone stood out as the winner for me. Overall, pretty good experience. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Cerritos, California

It took me a while to make it back to this location, but I'm happy to update my review to a full 5 stars. We stopped by early on a Saturday and tried the ube scone, seaweed spam croissant, and garlic salt bread. I didn't think we'd finish everything, but we ended up enjoying every last bite while sitting outside and sipping on a Tiger Latte. The bread was fresh, warm, and absolutely delicious. The pet-friendly outdoor seating is a big plus in my book, definitely part of why this spot earns a perfect rating. They also have a convenient self-serve water station, which is always appreciated. From what I've seen, this seems to be the only true "bread" factory location. Unlike the one near me in San Gabriel, which is more of a coffee shop with a smaller bread selection. read more

The only thing that was good here was the garlic cream cheese bread. I also tried the pumkin and chesnut mochi, both were meh~ Thieir drinks were not that good. The strawberry matcha was pretty watered down, needs more strawberry puree. The corn latte was too sweet, and tasted more like condensed milk instead of corn. The service was not good either. The two girls that was working were not in a good mood, they looked pissed, I asked if the strawberry matcha was good and they didn't even answer me, I guess it was because they new it wasn't good. I dont think I'll come back to this location. read more

My boyfriend and I was looking for a new place to try coffee and came across this place. Came here for the first time last week and came back literally the same day and the next. Upon arriving, the place is very open and there are tons of parking space which is great so no need to struggle finding a spot. They have an outdoor patio in case you were wanting to enjoy the fresh air outside and they also have a good amount of space inside. As you enter, you see a variety of pastries. There were so many options. We did try all of the Musubis and I'd have to say the Jalapeño Spam Musubi Croissant was my favorite. It had great texture and the jalapeños weren't spicy at all. It was super flavorful. We also had the korean pizza which we also enjoyed. We did not get to try much of the sweet pastries, but they all looked so great. We did end up trying the Corn Mochi and Sweet Potato Mochi which had really unique flavor and such a nice Mochi texture. In regards to drinks, I first tried their seasonal of Matcha Grapefruit.. I was definitely not a fan but the next day I ended up getting the Sweet Corn Latte which tasted great! My boyfriend enjoyed their Tiger Latte and the Banana Milk Latte. Overall, had a really great experience. They offer a large variety of unique items and definitely want to come back to try more of them. read more

So happy I stumbled on this place this weekend! I felt like a kid in a candy store with so much cool and unique bakery goods. Huge garlic buns, so yummy and the texture and flavor were on point. The blueberry scones wasn't too sweet and soft and flakey. I had the flatten croissant and I should of gotten the one the toppings, the original just was a flatten croissant with a tiny bit of glazed on it. I also got the nutella one and that one was really good and packed with flavor. The place was cute for studying or catching up with a friend. Service was great and friendly. read more

Breads are whatever here, drink is good, but service is wack. ========= FREEZING in here make sure to wear pants and a jacket. Thermostat said 68f!!! Everyone is studying and it seems pretty comfy, not sure about outlets but lots of seating. They were playing Korean chill music, but because the spot is so big, it didn't seem like it was too loud. I can be here without headphones. Got a sweet pumpkin mochi bread, which was ok. Drink was very good, I can taste the coffee and sweet potato. What I didn't like was the service, it was very odd. A coffee was $6, bread is $2.5, cashier charged me $19, I paid it, got a refund of $10 (because I looked over the receipt) and she said sorry, she mischarged me. After I got the refund, she then charges me $2.5 for the same bread. When I asked why, she said it was protocol. Which makes no sense to me because I already paid for it. Why do I need to pay for it again? read more
