TEKOSU CAFE

If you’re looking for coffee, matcha, brunch, pastries, or just a chill and cozy place to hang out — go to Tekosu! You won’t be disappointed. The place is clean and comfortable, and the staff are super friendly too! If you love coffee, don’t forget to try the Gula Aren Latte and the Creamy Biscoff Latte. Worried it might be too sweet? Don’t be! They can adjust the sweetness level to your liking. Want something more refreshing? Try the Yuzu Americano — it’s so damn good! And their matcha? Highly recommended! My favorite is the Matcha Matcha Cloud! Can’t wait to come back and try more of their drink variations!

Tekosu is a new-ish coffee spot in Arcadia and I had a wonderful first visit! We loved our drinks (the Gula Aren Latte and Creamy Biscoff Latte), their oatmeal cream pie sandwich cookie was to die for, staff were so welcoming, vibes were sleek and chic, it was surprisingly quiet inside given its central location, and I LOVE that they let you adjust sweetness levels. I’d come back again for the oatmeal cream pie cookie just in-and-of itself (but the lattes were excellent too). The cookie part was thin with a beautiful crispiness to it and the maple cream was divine. Not overly sweet with complex, complimentary flavors and the perfect ratio of cream to cookie. It was huge too - took me three sittings to finish it off! One of the best cookies I’ve had in quite a while - I hope they keep this one in stock lol. I got hubby the Gula Aren Latte (hot) and had to sneak a couple of sips for quality control lol - it was lovely and I’d get this for myself in the future. It had a wonderfully roasty sweetness to it with the rich coffee and brown sugar flavors complimenting each other very well. I got it at full sweetness (hubby has quite the sweet tooth) - it was definitely too sweet for me but it would be flawless at maybe 50% for those who don’t like as much sugar. For myself I chose the Creamy Biscoff Latte (iced) at 50% sweetness and it was fantastic - would definitely get this again. This latte had a delightful balance of beloved Biscoff flavor with their delectable espresso and comes with a velvety thick cream top for the perfect finish. At 50% sweet it was just right for me (I don’t consume much sugar daily so 50% would probably not be sweet enough for the sugar lovers out there). The staff were extremely friendly and helpful with great suggestions for my first visit. Prices are on par for the area. They had plenty of seating and a choice of inside with the clean, minimalist aesthetic and tall windows for people watching - or outside on their little cafe tables in the pedestrian terrace area. Personally I’d probably stay inside - the area can be a tad sketchy (very close to the train station) and there were several homeless people nearby yelling and carrying on. Parking is on the street or in the nearby garage (all free but time limited so be sure to read the signs). I found a spot on the street easily but it can be a little tight. All in all this is an excellent new addition to the SGV coffee scene and I’ll definitely be back - please stock up on the oatmeal sandwich cookies for me haha!

Great coffeeshop!! The employees were soooo nice and sweet. Matcha was on point. The flavor and color was so good. Spicy chicken salad is also delicious! I will definitely be back Nice tables, outlets for basically every table, free wifi, clean bathrooms

Great new coffee spot!! I ordered the strawberry matcha latte the taste really good and well balanced. The interior is clean and comfortable and the outside seating looks inviting as well. welcoming look that makes you want to walk-in. The staff were friendly and attentive , which made the experience even better. I’ll Definitely come back again.

New coffee shop in Arcadia worth checking out. Their yuzu matcha tonic is one of the best I’ve had anywhere. Most places throw in the yuzu peel, which adds a bitterness I can’t stand, but this one was all clean, bright citrus without the harsh edge. The avocado toast with egg was legitimately great too. It was really well-balanced. Definitely coming back.
