Ballers & Brew
407 Irving Dr, Burbank, CA
Crema's Take
“Ballers & Brew is a four-year Burbank gem that stands out for its playful creativity, especially their signature loukoumades (Greek-style donut holes called "Ballers") and an impressive array of customizable cold foam and flavor combinations that let you design your perfect drink. The team here genuinely cares, from the owner level down to baristas like Blanca who take time to chat and make thoughtful recommendations, turning a coffee run into a warm, personal experience that keeps customers coming back as devoted regulars.”

Ballers & Brew is the best! The people who work there and owners are amazing. ❤️ The coffee is delicious. It’s next to a chain coffee shop and worth the two minute walk to this local favorite to elevate your coffee game. And the sweet treats *chefs kiss* love them. My favorites: cold brew with caramel cold foam, Nutella filled donut (I wish I could eat it every day), ballers with Nutella, my daughter loves a sprinkle donut or their cake pops, and my husband goes for the apple fritter or ballers with Oreos. Honestly, I’ve never had anything I didn’t like. This spot is a must try! (Btw: Use the app to get points!)
My wife and I were in the area and found Ballers & Brews off a Google search and we're so glad we did! Such a unique array of beverage and cold foam flavors that you can mix and match. I choose marshmallow-krispy treat latte with maple vanilla foam and it was exceptional. My wife ordered their seasonal Gingerbread Chai latte and that was great, too. Many of their coffees can be decaf as well upon request. Curious as to what exactly "ballers" were, we ordered the 8-count cinnamon honey ballers. They were not donut holes but a Greek cousin that's got a soft outer crunch and hot, gooey center. The owner, upon realizing it was our first visit, not only doubled the count, but gave us the ballers for free AND threw in a large chocolate chip cookie for free for good measure. So sweet. So kind. So though. So cute. So delicious. There are not enough positive adjectives to describe Ballers & Brew's food, drinks, and service! 100% will return. Can't reccomend this place enough!
I think I've found my new favorite coffee spot - even though they've been around for 4 years! Insane number of options for flavors, whether it's coffee or their Ballers (loukoumades, like a light, airy donut hole). I swear by the cold brew, tbh. And the staff??? The STAFF??? Smiley, energetic, FRIENDLY, and truly happy to be working at such an amazing spot. The owners go above and beyond. Absolute hidden gem in Burbank!!!
Online ordered here on 10/30 and got a tea and two of the donut holes. All were amazing. When we came to pick it up we were greeted by Blanca who gave us a friendly and warm welcome and chatted with us. I asked what her favorite refresher was and she told us and let us try it which was extremely nice of her! Will definitely be returning when we come to back Burbank.
Customer Service is top notch. Very sweet girl took my order and made so many suggestions. I got a pumpkin dessert and their famous cinnamon balls warm. 😋 Extra star for giving me a coupon for future orders. That's how you get repeat customers 🥰
