    Loaded Dirty Potatoes with jackfruit
    Bella A.

    Food super yummy! We got loaded dirty bbq jackfruit potatoes and the banhMi I loved that this place offers so many vegan options! Normally I don't have many options when I go out but here, I had sooo many! The drinks (forgot the name) but both very good ones a matcha the other an iced latte.

    iced matcha latte

    I was in the area and was looking for a breakfast spot with a good variety of drink options. When I arrived, there were a few people in line. They have the food menu as soon as you walk in and also sell pastries. I ordered the Combine Breakfast which comes with eggs, potatoes, bacon, and sourdough bread. It was tasty and a generous portion. For my drink, I ordered an iced matcha latte with agave which was also good! If you are dining in, they give you a number and you can choose a seat inside or outside. They will call your name to pick up your drinks at the counter and then they bring the food to your table.

    Good delicious place, we love the mushrooms toast, just the best, the staff is fast, the place is really big, they have a lot of space, coffee i will like and option of medium roast perhaps because it was super strong we actually ask for hot water, the staff was really helpful and nice.

    The inside is really clean, just a bit small though. Not sure if big parties like 10 people can fit comfortable. It's kinda unpleasant that they have to call out names for coffee -- when you're sitting outside, it's hard to even hear your name. I'd hate for someone to order a hot drink and get it warm instead. Food-wise, it was pretty plentiful. The quality, texture, and amount was actually really fulfilling.

    Such a cool place! I've been here before, years ago, and I'm glad it's still here! It's right next to a charging station and some restaurants we go to! They have a pretty good menu with decent prices, tasty food, tons of parking and lots of places to sit, work, chill, talk or whatever! The staff is great, friendly and fast and this is way better than sitting in a Starbucks! Check this place out but watch out for their hours. I think they're open 7a-7p every day except for Sundays!

    Flapjacks

    Nice place to have brunch, had white peony tea and the flapjacks. My daughters had the veggie bowl and quesadillla. The London Fog was enjoyed warm and Spanish latte was beautifully prepared. We sat outside in the patio, during a sunny day. The sun warmed us on a cool morning.

    Stopped into my hometown spot to spend the day catching up with my sister -- nothing beats a cozy breakfast with family, especially on a rainy day. As a former barista from a third-wave LA shop, I'll admit I'm a little picky about my drip coffee. My first batch brew came out lukewarm, and with the weather I was really craving something hot and comforting. Anna (the friendly strawberry-blonde at the counter) immediately listened, brewed a fresh batch, and even went the extra mile to steam a little milk on top so it stayed perfectly warm. That small act of care honestly made the whole visit. Thank you, Anna, for turning a simple coffee stop into such a warm, much-needed catch-up morning with my sister. I really appreciated the kindness and attention.

    Sunday Mornings + Good Coffee = Combine Kitchen Rolled into Combine Kitchen for a laid-back Sunday breakfast, drawn in by their new 7-to-7 hours I spotted on Facebook. I figured some menu tweaks were in store--turns out, they streamlined the offerings quite a bit. Fewer choices, but I was relieved to see my go-to Combine Breakfast made the cut. Crisis averted. Paired it with a solid batch brew and grabbed a seat at the counter to knock out a few emails. Service was warm and attentive, the food hit the spot--though the eggs leaned more medium than my usual over-easy. Still tasty. On a whim, I added a chia pudding to-go--a smart move. Creamy, subtly sweet, great toppings, and definitely worth trying if you haven't yet. All in all, a satisfying stop. Looking forward to seeing how the expanded hours shape this Rancho favorite's next chapter.

    Angel City French Toast
    Manuel G.

    The restaurant had a bright, open and airy floor pan. The employees were nice and welcoming. With the food we ordered we had to sit at the bar because the table was too small. The combine breakfast was pretty good. I really liked the potatoes. In my opinion it needed one more egg. The sourdough toast was good too. The food was warm and not hot when we received it. The French Toast was very good. My wife and I enjoyed it. It wasn't overly sweet. It was just right. I loved the presentation. The cut fruit went very well with it. My wife had the vegan Avocado Toast and she enjoyed it. . The avocados, radishes and the pickled onions were fresh. I ordered a caramel vanilla latte. It tasted like the coffee and not caramel vanilla flavor. My wife ordered the Chai Latte but they ran out. That was the only downside. I'm always looking for a great breakfast place with tasty caffeine drinks.

    Beez Neez + Iced Matcha
    Adriana G.

    So so good! I love breakfast and the breakfast here was BOMB! The bacon was perfectly crisp, the eggs buttery, and the potatoes seasoned deliciously. Tried the Beez Neez specialty drink (matcha, honey, and lavender) and it was perfect. All three flavors made a great combination! Loved that it has a casual breakfast feel and although there was a long line, finding a seat was no problem. The cashier was very welcoming and overall, it was a great first impression! We can't wait to go back!

    Angel City French Toast  Steak and Eggs  Cappuccino  Avocado Toast (Vegetarian)
    It's M.

    Absolutely loved our experience at The Combine Kitchen I had the cappuccino with no sugar, smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced along with the avocado pickled toast that was fresh, flavorful, and so satisfying. My husband ordered the steak and egg on sourdough with arugula, and every bite was hearty, well-seasoned, and cooked to perfection. We shared the French toast, which was outstanding, topped with juicy blueberries, fluffy strawberry whipped cream, and finished with a fresh mint leaf. It was indulgent without being overly sweet and honestly unforgettable. The vibes here are super chill, the people are incredibly kind, and we sat at the bar table where you can watch the cooks in action. You can truly tell the food is made with love and care. Great atmosphere, amazing food, and a place we'll definitely be coming back to.

    It's a decent cafe with seasonal drinks and a few food items for a quick and casual brunch. The seating is a bit too casual and the prices are a bit high for what they have to offer. I've been here a few times mainly because of convenience and it's not really worth it. A basic latte can ring you up to almost $9... .and higher if you're into tipping culture for a to go coffee. The food, like the burrito or burger is good and will fill you up. But again at these prices, it's nothing to jump at for a seemingly basic item. Food: 5/10 Service: 6/10 Atmosphere: 5/10 Value: 4/10

    Cafe De Olla Latte
    Mayra P.

    Such a cozy spot for a quick bite and great coffee. The toast was perfectly crisp, and the café de olla had that warm, cinnamon sweetness -- so good! Their service is always 100%

    The breakfast quesadilla offered on their special menu. Tasty and had a great spice to it.

Very straightforward, but really well balanced. If you've never had chicory coffee before, it has a deeper, slightly earthy flavor that stands out from a standard cold brew without being overly bitter.

It's the kind of café that makes you want to stay awhile, whether you're on your laptop or catching up with a friend. They also offer free WiFi, which makes it even more practical for longer stays. What really stood out, though, was the service. In a time when many aesthetically pleasing coffee shops tend to fall short on hospitality, this place does the opposite. I was greeted with a warm, genuine smile upon entering, and the staff went above and beyond by bringing my matcha and musubi directly to my table. Small gesture, big impact. Friendly, attentive, and consistent service from start to finish. Overall, this is a spot that delivers on both vibe and substance. I'll definitely be coming back.

Very cold demeanor, especially after I ordered a coffee and asked about the popularity with their matcha drinks since I noticed everyone ordering one.

The scone was the showstopper for me though. I don't normally like scones, but this had to be one of the best ones I've ever had. The biscoff flavor was prominent throughout and the texture was not hard and dry. It truly was perfection. Because of the poor service experience, I can't say that I'd return. However, if you do decide to give them a try, make sure to add a scone to your order.

That's probably the only thing that's bad ass about this place.

How are people supposed to know how much things cost? If here is enough room to have the name of the product on it, it's not hard to put the number of dollars it costs right there next to it. I hateeeee when coffee shops do this! The coffee was an iced pistachio latte for $8.50, and various food items that we had no idea the totals until charged for the bill, I don't remember the exact number but I was kind of shocked at the total price of everything which I think was high $30s-40s? The interior was super cute with their red chairs and their story concept on the walls. The seats were comfortable and it was pretty crowded in the coffee shop with students and people working on their laptops. The food wasn't that good. For the prices we paid I kind of expected more, especially from that chicken roll item. The chicken was very dry and the flavors were lacking. It tasted like something you can get frozen from the stores that you just microwave or air fry.I enjoyed the cheesecake, but I didn't really like the pistachio milk cake, it tasted Joe they just mixed their milk solution with pistachio pudding powder (based off of the to bright/unnatural green color of it) and didn't flavor it with any real pistachio nuts. I enjoyed the coffee as well however I feel that the prices of everything was expensive especially when we didn't even know the prices of 3/4 of the things we purchased. I understand that we can ask how much each thing cost but how annoying would it be to ask about every single one. It would be very annoying and such a hassle for the cashier too. On the plus side parking is easy bc it shares it in a pretty big plaza. Another upside is that it's close to a ton of good food options in that area as well. ---- Overall: I wouldn't be back, expensive, don't know the price of their food bc none of it is listed out, and the food is hit or miss, interior decor is very cute tho
