After driving by tickle tree every day and wanting to stop by and give it a try, I decided tonight was the night. I tried the tickle tree burger which comes with garlic fries. You will not find a more flavorful burger in la crescenta that's for sure. I'm so glad i gave tickle tree cafe a try, very impressed! I will be back very soon! read more

My daughter goes there very frequently and gets their turkey and Swiss sandwich each time. Thought...how good could the sandwich be? I finally tried it and it was delicious! I've also tried their burger, tuna melt, and fettuccine alfredo and loved them all! Will definitely be going back for more! read more

Excellent lattes. One of the best veggie omelettes I've had. Breakfast sandwich was simple and delicious. The people here seem to care a lot about providing quality food and drinks. Definitely a neighborhood gem. Will be coming here again soon. read more

mint lemonade is great! the food on the other hand wasn't very good. the only thing I liked was the sweet potato fries. the burger was bland. I don't recommend the burger. read more

My favorite place to study and read in La Crescenta. The food and drinks are delicious, no complaints on anything I've had so far. Highly recommend their sweet potato fries with aoili sauce. Free wifi. I've never had a problem parking. Service is great and very friendly. It's a bit on the pricey side though and I find myself paying over 10$ every time I come here, but I usually stay for a couple hours anyways. read more

This cafe never lets us down. Their salads, sandwiches, and coffee are all great and their quality is very consistent. Service is good and the atmosphere is great. Kid friendly. read more

This is probably the best choice in town, since the selections are fairly limited in La Crescenta. Unless you prefer fast food that is. The only thing that boggles my mind is the lack of take out service. Whenever I call the phone just rings... and rings... and rings. So I have to drive there, get in a long line, and get the "Sorry, we're so busy I just don't pick up the phone." excuse, Seriously? Way to alienate repeat customers. I quit going so often due to the lack of care, or concern. If you're that busy, maybe hire someone else to take additional orders, or I don't know. Create an electronic take out inbox to email orders instead of turning business away. Anything really! For that I have to go to 3 stars. The food is good, don't get me wrong. It's not excellent though, not enough to put up with bad customer service. I'll give it another shot once I get over the 3rd instance that the phones are ignored. After that I'm over it though. Who wants to put up with someone who ignores you all the time. Not me!! read more

Okay, so I'm here a couple times a week! I book most of my tea/coffee appointments here. The atmosphere is great, outdoor seating is relaxing and convenient and the food is really really good - that includes their coffee. Only drawback is they're slightly pricey (but not too much), probably due to their high quality ingredients and their parking when they get busy. But over all, this little boutique coffee shop / restaurant is worth going to. They have my business for sure! read more

Had the orange French toast.. Ate the entire plate! Breakfast potatoes were simple and yummy

Very enjoyable island of calm in Crescenta Valley. Food is excellent and atmosphere friendly.

Thank you ladies for providing a wonderful coffee and hot chocolate stop for my daughter's 18th birthday celebration! It was so nice of you to accommodate us on such last minute notice and your coffees were delicious! read more

really really good , i love it! Chicken salad and chicken wraps are amazing

This place was good, but every time I go or take it to go, it takes forever. I suggest ordering before you go in so you get it right away otherwise it takes 15 minutes. But I would have to say that the food is yummy :) read more

Really happy they opened the tickle tree in la crescenta. Overall they have good food and good drinks . It's a cute little cafe in the perfect location. Really recommend their chopped salad and burger. read more

Amazing!!!! This place is so so good! The tickle tree burger (with the sweet potato fries) is honestly one of the best burgers I've ever had. The BBQ chicken salad and chicken sandwich are also amazing :) read more

Ordered a pastrami sandwich, which shouldn't be on a menu unless you know how to do pastrami. Thick cut, tough/chewy. The Hat or Portos is a good bar to aim for when doing pastrami. That was all I got. Can't speak for the rest of the menu...wouldn't go back. Poor judgement on acceptable pastrami I'm guessing might carry through the rest of the menu. I'm going to coin a phrase here for the industry...if it ain't great, don't plate. read more

I got the turkey swiss with a side salad and lemonade because they were out of the mint lemonade. I have to say the lemonade was PERFECT. The sandwich was good everything was fresh they didn't skimp on the toppings, avocado was falling out and bread was toasted but I couldn't really taste the aioli spread. The side salad was refreshing for a few bites but the vinaigrette was way to acidic for me. My hubby got the cobb salad which was huge btw and again didn't skimp on the toppings he said it was amazing. The only negative I could say is 2 drinks, a sandwich, and salad 30 dollars is way to expensive! The food was very good but very ordinary. I will be back to try other more interesting things most definitely. Overall this place was good. read more

BLAT is king! Their garlic fries, sweet potato or plain variety, call out to you on a weekday at lunchtime. Don't care for their cold brew coffee but it may be because I don't like cold brew... if you want a perfect latte, however, this is the place to go. read more

Excellent turkey and bacon sandwich. My friend had the tuna melt and it was perfectly toasted.

Still the best breakfast in this land of abandoned foothill Blvd it is the one and ONLY establishment to actually beautify this hell hole strip of foothill Blvd it will be awesome when their trees mature and make shade on lower patio the kids who bring the food are great friendly and attentive as can be the food is expensive for the tiny portions but it taste great we will continue to eat here a few times per week . read more

Great food and customer service. Very attentive staff that take good care if it's patrons. Very convenient location and parking available.

The food there is so amazing!! I love it there. It's a really nice café. Really cool place to eat, hangout, and have some fun at la crescenta. Total recommend! read more

Good food but not a very well run welcoming restaurant. Nice breakfast menu but the expected amenities with breakfast are not... The prices at first appear on par with La Canada or Montrose .but buyer beware....Toast costs extra with your omelette and comes with a stingy amount of butter. And you better not have your heart set on an English muffin. Refills on their potted coffee are $1 per cup & you need to wait again in the order-at-counter line to get it. And that's on a $2.75 restaurant sized cup! All that brings the price out of the value ballpark very quickly. Not as casual a restaurant as they portray! read more

Been here twice and I have no complaints! The food is delicious , and you'll never feel guilty for eating so much. Only negative thing is that you do have to wait awhile for your food but it's healthy food so of course you have to wait if you want something fresh !!! So if you're in a hurry it is not the place for you! read more

One of my favorite brunch cafe. I go there with my girlfriend every weekends to relax have some delicious foods and great coffee. Definitely recommend mint lemonade there its great! read more

Great food and love the staff. Highly recommend this place, been coming here so often lately.

Food was light, healthy and delicious. We had the tickle tree burger and the steak sandwich. Location was nice ;-) Would definitely go back.

I have been here several times now and whether I go in for a meal or just to grab a coffee I have never been disappointed. They are fast and friendly and the quality of the food is great. My favorite is the chopped salad but they have great burgers and sandwiches as well. read more

i LOVE this place. everything ive tried so far is absolutely tasty !! love the laid back environment, healthy fresh menu, and theres even a guest sketch book so you can leave your mark :) staff is friendly, owner is friendly, I will be going back again and again and will tell all my friends and visitors. This place is def what this foothill area needed !! read more

This is a cute casual restaurant near the La Crescenta Library. They have excellent salads and are generous with their ingredients. I always take home 1/2 'cause they are huge. Tickle Tree is a nice addition to our area. read more

food: really good atmosphere: good parking: great coffee: horrible! attention management: please change your coffee and espresso asap. i would have given you 5 stars if it wasn't for that. thank you! read more

Good food, fair prices, and outdoor seating. Dog-friendly too: they have a water bowl available and a hose to fill it.

Been coming here since it opened, about time I wrote a review! I'm not a coffee person, so I can't speak about that, but the food is always excellent and the staff is always very friendly. This is seriously the best place to get a yummy, reasonably priced salad in the foothills. All of the salads are delicious and full of good, fresh veggies. The grilled chicken is tender and nicely seasoned. I've also had burgers, garlic fries, breakfast, sandwiches, and everything is fresh and delicious. The drinks are all a little pricey but that's a small complaint... There isn't anything else quite like this in the area, and I hope they're here to stay!! read more

We placed a large (rather confusing) order and they nailed it. The order was ready when I came to pick it up and everyone loved the food. They even helped me carry it out to my vehicle! Great experience on a stressful day. Thank you. read more

One of my favorite lunch spots! The food is delicious & the restaurant is super cute. I would recommend the cobb salad & the peach lemonade!

YES, yes and so much yes, I always get pancakes for breakfast, I forget the name but it has a guys name somewhere in it? Maybe Jims Pancakes, I don't know, anyways amazing! and such a cute place too, if its not sweltering I love to sit outside, I feel like this place is like a better priced urth caffe, at tickle tree you can get a good meal that you will feel full from after at a decent price and I love that! read more

The hostess did not treat us well! My wife asked for a gluten free food, they said it is not possible. Also no seating options were available. It felt like we were not welcome. So we ended walking away. read more

I had such high hopes for this place, but unfortunately was met with disappointment. First we were greeted by the hostess who looked pissed off and annoyed. Then, after we specifically asked for no dairy products since my fiance has a dairy allergy, of course his omelet showed up stuffed with cheese. The waiter was apologetic, saying they didn't know even though our receipt clearly said 'no dairy'. And the coffee was terrible. read more

This place is really nice if you want to enjoy breakfast or lunch. Staff are friendly and the food is healthy and tasty. Give this place a try. read more

I love the food at here and I probably eat from here at least twice a week, however today I have out of town guests that love Tickle Tree so I tried to call to place a to go order and the phone rang and rang finally I gave up after about 20 min. They couldn't be closed could they? So I ran down there and they are open! Evidently when they get busy they stop answering their phone.... really? So what does that tell me? They don't think someone calling in an order is important enough, they don't want or need my business? Or are they so understaffed that the can't handle the business. So right now I have been away from my guests for almost an hour waiting....... read more
