Before I started my long road trip back to Southern California, I stopped by this coffee shop to…read moreget a little pick-me-up for the drive. Driftwood is a small shop in an unassuming area. Peoria seems like a nice place to be, and this is a great representation. It's a tiny coffee shop that exists on the corner of a small street. Great vibes when you walk in, and the staff is friendly and warm. I ordered a short iced latte and waited for the drink to be made. Lotsa folks around getting their day started, or doing some work for the day. The energy was perfect, and my coffee arrived promptly. I gave it a sip and went on my way. The coffee was not bad, but pretty much unremarkable in that regard. I enjoyed it as a sipping coffee, but it was a little too dark on the roast for me. Not their fault, as they're a multiroaster. Overall, I think it's a great place to grab a coffee, and especially if you like flavored drinks! Perhaps a mocha or a vanilla latte would slap! Come here for a nice slow morning or if you want a mood boost!

It was everything I needed, perfect and refreshing for the hot day! This place also offered some grab and go items and had a large list of other drinks. I would definitely come back here! I'd also say it's one of the better boba places on the west side of the valley.

The space itself is pretty big with plenty of tables. The woman who took my order was super sweet and they even delivered the drink to my seat! I ordered a latte with cookie butter syrup and almond milk. It was an okay latte! Nothing inherently bad about it but it just didn't taste anything like cookie butter. Next time, I would probably get one of their specialty lattes to try. Rating Cookie butter latte: 2.5/5

So refreshing on a hot summer day. Happy to say the staff is courteous and fast. No long wait times at all. I hope to be able to stop by more often and try more drinks. The arcade inside looks fun too. I will be back!

I visited at opening time on Memorial Day Monday and was immediately captivated by the colorful and…read morequirky environment, with playful and clever artwork and decor, and both indoor and outdoor seating available. Great music playing in the background set the mood, songs like Knock Three Times and Song Sung Blue by Neil Diamond. The lady who helped me place my order, possibly the owner, was so sweet. Patient too, as I made my selections. It was hard to choose what to get as the shop has so many appetizing sweet and savory options on the menu. I ended up getting a chocolate milkshake and a 6-pack of oatmeal cookies I was able to take home and share, including chocolate chip (no nuts), chocolate walnut, peanut butter dark chocolate cashew, dark chocolate pecan, dark chocolate cashew, and oatmeal raisin with pecans (they have a nut-free version too). The taste of everything was phenomenal. The shake had the perfect consistency and a strong chocolatey flavor, yet wasn't too sweet. And the cookies were nice and chewy and loaded with delicious chunks of nuts and chocolate. Honestly, I couldn't really tell the difference between the nut and chocolate combo flavors as the oatmeal was really the highlight. The peanut butter one and oatmeal raisin were more recognizable. ALL of them were amazing!

Ordering is done at the back, and the tables up front make the perfect spot to sit, relax, and chat while enjoying your treats. Their menu is seriously impressive, with everything from coffee, smoothies, tea, and handspun milkshakes to savory lunch items like burgers, hot dogs, and wings, plus an incredible lineup of baked goodies including cookies, pie, cupcakes, cake pops, macarons, muffins, and more. I tried the sugar‑free dark chocolate goji berry gluten‑free cookie and WOW--it was delicious. The milkshakes are next‑level rich and creamy; my son couldn't get enough of his caramel shake. The savory lunch items looked so good coming out--perfect comfort‑food options that smelled amazing and made us immediately start planning our next visit.The staff was incredibly kind, welcoming, and patient, which we really appreciated since it was our first time and we took a while to decide. This place has such a fun, cozy, welcoming vibe, and we are absolutely coming back to try the lunch menu next time. Highly recommend checking it out!

I recently had to be in the downtown Glendale area - the Yelp machine recommended I hit up Blue Corn Cafe. There's some development / construction in the downtown area so parking is a little limited. However - I was able to snag a spot right along 58th Ave and get a good view of all the cute shops to check out at a later date. Blue Corn was surprisingly busy that morning due to hosting a Coffee with Cops event. I got the low down from a few of the GPD staff that they are consistently rated as one of the best cafes in the city, maybe even the West Valley. They have recently-ish opened up a second location in DT Mesa, which definitely fits their vibe. I was told the owner gets up early every day to bake - I love the dedication to his craft. Like many mom and pops, there are times when quantities are limited. So ofc I had to buy some baked goods to go for my work team! Their muffins are HUGE - like 2 -3 servings per *singular* muffin. I didn't know what I was getting into when I bought 6... hello carb heaven for us. I noticed a lot of sweet and savory options - croissant sandwiches, cookies, you name it. Definitely the muffins were well-enjoyed by all (PSL, lemon-blueberry, red velvet), and the general consensus was lemon blueberry as the winner. It's a small space with not a lot of seating options however there appears to be a back patio that might be shared with other restaurants. I couldn't get a view on my way out. Cannot wait for the next time that I'm in the area to grab more sweets!

Came for a quick stop--left planning my next trip back. I had about a two-hour break during a track…read moremeet and noticed a small line forming outside this bakery in downtown Glendale--so I decided to go on a little adventure. This was my first stop, and I'm so glad it was. The café itself is absolutely charming--spacious, clean, and with plenty of seating. But what stood out immediately was the customer service. From the moment I walked in, everyone was smiling. You can tell this is a team that genuinely enjoys what they do. Despite the line, they were patient, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. Their coffee selection is wide but not overwhelming. . I went with the matcha latte with pistachio, which was well-balanced. When it came to food, I couldn't decide between my usual go-to (broccoli and cheese quiche) or the bacon, spinach, and cheddar--or even the tomato basil, which sounded amazing. I asked the barista/ server to choose for me, and she recommended the bacon, spinach, and cheddar. It did not disappoint. The crust was thick and perfectly done, and the filling was layered and flavorful--just incredible. I also ordered an ube muffin and was given a complimentary lemon tart (no complaints here!). The ube muffin was exactly what you'd hope for--lightly sweet with a delicate blend of vanilla, nutty notes, and a hint of coconut. The lemon tart was perfectly balanced--bright, slightly tart, and complemented beautifully by the whipped topping. Before leaving, I grabbed a loaf of sourdough to go. They even offered to slice it for me--small detail, big win. And I have to say, coming from San Francisco, I do not say this lightly: this is hands-down some of the best sourdough I've had outside of San Francisco. Honestly worth the 45-minute drive just for that alone. I come from a background in the restaurant industry, and great service doesn't go unnoticed. Everyone here was attentive, kind, and truly invested in the experience they provide. The customer service alone is worth the visit. They so offer Panini's and daily soups.. Their menu changes daily. They also offer Louisiana hot sauce so someone knows what they're doing. I can't wait to bring my kids here next time. We will absolutely be back.

Came here looking for Japanese milk bread to make some of those viral Japanese cream sandwiches…read more This was a Friday afternoon and they were all sold out. Although they did tell me they get four shipments per week and their next shipment should be the next day (Saturday). So I called the next morning and confirmed their Milk Toast was available. So I was able to pick some up along with some ube buns (cannot recall if that's what they're actually called but it was filled with ube custard) which is my new favorite! Was immediately hooked! Ambiance was nice and clean. All of their shelves were nice and neat and everything looks clean. This location has a drive through but it was blocked off with cones. Not sure what that's all about but I'm just glad I didn't take my two little girls with because I was planning on going through the drive through with them. Luckily mama was cool with them staying home while I made a quick solo trip. Overall: 4-stars - Product availability is hit or miss it seems. Can't speak on their drinks or every single product, but the milk toast and ube buns were perfection. Minus one star for product availability but comes with the nature of being a bakery I suppose. Nonetheless would recommend and will be coming back for more ube baked goodness.
