The restaurant is spacious and well organized with cute merchandise, coffee and teas for sale near the register. I picked up a …
um that breakfast bacon burrito was slap. everything tasted very fresh from the avocados that i added, to the arugula, even the eggs. it didn't taste old. the tortilla was crispy yet soft and it came with a dipping sauce that was bomb. literally just stumbled across this cafe and i WILL BE BACK.

We saw a line that went out the door and couldn’t resist. - The french toast was a classic; fluffy yet crunchy on the sides, sweet yet not overwhelming, and it had such a beautiful presentation. - The bacon burrito was scrumptious; a hearty and …
This coffee shop was wonderful. Coffee and tea that we got was great and the environment was good as well. I would definitely stop by here again if I needed work done on my laptop or if I wanted some good coffee and tea and some pastries. The coffee shop is pretty large so there’s lots of room for everybody. …

Make sure to say “to go” or the default is in a glass cup and saucer. I’d definitely come back to try their other menu items. The interior is large with numerous areas to …
Really nice shop and experience! Came here with a few friends on a weekday morning and it was a little busy, but our food and coffee still came out within 10 minutes. I ordered the veggie burrito and enjoyed it so much!! The oat milk latte hot was also tasty. I would come back.

I had a drip coffee here that was really good! I added creme to it. My friend the Turkey Brekkie and really enjoyed it. They were quick with service, especially since it was New Year's Day and the Rose Bowl Parade had just concluded.
I really enjoyed Copa Vida. It’s a bright and engaging space. Plenty of seating available. The menu has enough to choose from, including an array of tea options which looked tempting. There is free hot sauce/ ketchup / condiments available to grab for your food! I had the iced Americano and drank it all. Very balanced. I paired it with …
