Me and my sister accidentally came the day OF their grand opening! So granted I understand everyone was scrambling around trying to make sure they were set up for their event that day- but the service is what caused me to rate this place a 3. Luckily we came in and the line wasn't long, we had just randomly decided to try this shop out bc last time I was in uptown I saw this place was new! So anyway, we're standing in line and we're next up, although the cashier was busy assisting another customer- which is fine. So we waited just a few seconds until he gave us his attention so we could order. So after he's done doing what he's doing, he kind of just stares at us(again! I understand there was a lot going on due to the grand opening!) but we are also customers and there was zero greeting, no questions and seemed like he just expected us to tell him what we wanted. You can tell it's family owned as they have their children also helping out and working. Overall coffee was okay for what it was! I don't think we'll be revisiting after that though. I like the pictures of the cats they have everywhere, but other than that- just another coffee shop! Positive is they have plenty of seating from what I saw, open space is definitely a plus for anyone else looking to visit :)

Tranquilo Coffee is a great new addition to Whittier. The space is beautiful, with vibrant decor and eye-catching tile work that makes it feel warm and inviting. I ordered the seasonal Strawberry Shortcake Cold Brew and loved it. It still tasted like coffee, but the strawberry flavor came through perfectly. I was looking for something a little sweeter than my usual order, and this was a fun, unique treat without being over the top. Friendly staff and a great first experience. I'll definitely be back.

Coffee has such a great vibe. It's busy but not overwhelming, and the service was still quick. The staff was super sweet and really took time to answer our questions and explain different drinks in detail. We tried a cold brew with their house syrup and cold foam, perfect balance, not overly sweet at all. My friend mentioned she should've added cold foam, and the barista kindly added it on complimentary, which was such a thoughtful touch. Overall, everything was delicious and well-made, and the experience felt really welcoming. This spot used to be Coffee Bean, which I loved growing up, so I was a little sad when it closed but I'm honestly really happy this is what replaced it. Definitely recommend.

Convenient and cute coffee spot just opened in uptown! Signature coffees and matchas (love their seasonal options!) trendy and open space with lots of seating. Must try their house zuzu cold foam top and coconut matcha!

Enjoyed it all! My first visit. A new coffee shop in an area with many. This place is located where Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf was for years. The decor: a minimalist, tasteful, calm aesthetic, industrial, clean, and simple vibe. Not cozy, but an inviting space to sit for conversation or solitude to work or read. Plants added a touch of green and sense of life and growth. The music was soft and perfect for background ambience. There was a variety of coffee drinks, other drinks, and some food available. I noticed different brewing machines, which was interesting and will appeal to more serious coffee drinkers. I liked the tile design and color, a bright blue at the counter and a dusty teal in the spacious, clean restrooms. There is a separate room that would work nicely for a small group or meeting. I hope they permit reservations for it in the future. The woman who took my order and the woman who made my latte were charming and friendly, doing their work efficiently with a pleasant attitude. That helped me feel the welcome and caring that will set this place apart. I had a great first experience and a grand first impression.

Tranquilo Coffee took over the old Coffee Bean location and the nostalgia alone made me excited to visit. I used to come here all the time in college to study, so when Coffee Bean closed I couldn't wait to see what would move in -- and honestly, I love what they've done with the space. The old setup felt darker and heavier with all the wood tones, but Tranquilo completely opened it up. The bright whites with the blue and orange accents make it feel so much bigger, lighter, and more inviting. It's the kind of coffee shop you actually want to sit in for a while -- whether that's catching up with a friend, studying, or getting some work done. And the coffee? Even better. I'm obsessed. I've already been three times. The first time I got the Spanish latte. I usually stay away from sweeter coffee drinks, but this one was so balanced and not overly sweet at all. The last two visits I ordered the Zuzu Cloud Top -- a cold brew mixed with your choice of whole milk or oat milk, topped with their cold foam and espresso powder. So creamy, so smooth, so good. Definitely recommend. Safe to say this has quickly become one of my new favorite coffee spots in the area.

As a cafénista I love trying new spots. This place just opened where coffe n bean across from BofA on Greenleaf. Don't sleep on it. One of the best horchata latte I've had in a while. The hubby absolutely loved the Spanish Latte and the lemonade- peefect and refreshing. The baristas were friendly and we got our drinks pretty quickly. Its a large spot, so plenty of seating and a cute bar facing the outside windows perfect for people watching while you drink your cafecito. Will definitely be coming back.

I had a lovely experience at Tranquilo Coffee (Whittier). I ordered the ZuZu Cloud Top ($7). It's creamy cold brew coffee that's sweetened with house-made syrup, and it's topped with fluffy foam & sprinkled espresso powder. TASTY! This coffee tasted bright, chill, and silky. After 40 minutes, the clean coffee's strength suddenly hit me. I felt happy. I arrived at Tranquilo Coffee (Whittier) on Friday (around 9:15AM). Parking is available and free; however, it's very competitive. There's a very competitive, busy customer parking lot. And there's street parking. Customers order at the counter. There was ALWAYS a line! POPULAR!! When I'd left, the line started to stretch outside the doorway. It took about five minutes to reach the counter; however, my drink was completed in 32 seconds!!! FAST! Staff is polite and composed. As mentioned, I ordered the ZuZu Cloud Top ($7). This coffee is not bitter nor overly sweet; rather, it's very smooth and clean. Immediately, I thought of bright & refreshing flavors as I sipped. The hype for this location is genuine!! The coffee has utility and flavor. On ambiance, Tranquilo Coffee (Whittier) is very clean. Despite the eye-sore orange chairs, the ceiling is very pretty. There's many college students studying with laptops at this spot. I counted about two electrical outlets by the tables; however, the long counter has extra electrical outlets embedded in its underside. In addition, Tranquilo Coffee (Whittier) has about nine tables and one very long table counter. There's two gender neutral restrooms with number codes. And I appreciated the upbeat music. This location felt comfortable and new. Overall, I had a pleasant experience at Tranquilo Coffee (Whittier). I felt awake and happy after sipping. If searching for a great coffee option in Whittier, I can happily recommend. 4.9 out of 5

I love this place for coffee or matcha!! Fast service and my favorites are the strawberry matcha and banana pudding latte so far! They also have a tranquilo shake which is basically a coffee smoothie and It's yummy :)!

i arrived on a weekday morning with my friend. the parking lot can be tight but there are also street spaces if needed. this is a trendy new coffee shop that recently opened and offers plenty of seating along with restrooms inside. they have a variety of matcha, coffees, and cool drink flavors. their food selection is small. i had the lox bagel, which was expensive considering the size. my total came out to a little over $17 for that one bagel. it was a bit burnt and tasted bitter. overall it was okay.

Stopped by to checl it out, definitely has a cool menu. I was alone so I only tried 1 coffee, went with a Spanish latte. It made me curious enough to want to come back. Definitely a cool vibe as soon as you walk in. Although I wasn't blown away, I still really.want to go back and check out the rest of the menu. They are open now during their soft opening. Glad to see this spot taken up by another coffee shop. We'll done guys!

After my Pilates class I had to stop by because I was curious where people were getting their coffee from. When I went, they still had their soft opening hours and I would say there were 6 people ahead of me. Which doesn't seem like much, but the line was out the door, and progressively got longer as time went on. I really enjoyed the space, and even thought I waited maybe 15 minutes to order, my drink and pastry were out in a jiffy! You can't go wrong with their honey oat latte with a chocolate croissant. It definitely revived me after having done a hit Pilates class.
