Mate Coffee Bar

I needed a place to study in the evening, and this shop provided exactly that. I've tried their double matcha, which is very delicious! The drink in the picture is a latte with strawberry puree, and it was also delicious. (Puree was a good consistency with strawberry bits to chew on.) Both matcha and lattee had a good strong taste. The staff are very nice, parking lot is spacious, and there are many tables to study by yourself or with friends! I definitely hope this place gets more recognition ☺️

There’s a new Korean cafe located in Hawaiin gardens ca. service is amazing, the servers are nice and drinks come out fast! I love their lates because you can adjust the sweetness to your liking and the drinks tastes soo good. the whole store is giving minimalistic aesthetic vibes, perfect place to study and have plenty of seatings, they have different selections of lattes, teas and pastries It’s my new place to hang with friends. What I got: HOJICHA MATE LATTE DOUBLE MATCHA PASTRIES

I enjoy exploring and café hopping, so I was happy to come across this coffee shop not far from Cerritos ☕🌿 The café has a cozy and welcoming feel, and the customer service was great from the start. The staff clearly knows what they’re doing, and there’s a good variety of options, which makes ordering easy. 🍵✨ I ordered a ceremonial matcha, and Rachel was especially helpful. She did an excellent job preparing it—the taste, texture, and balance were spot on. It was exactly what I was hoping for. I’m really glad I found this place. There’s plenty of seating, making it a nice spot for studying, working, or just enjoying some quiet time. On a relaxed Sunday, all I wanted was a good matcha or coffee, and this place delivered. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to 💚

Really enjoyed the very laidback old-school college-town coffee-shop vibes and the college age staff who were very kind to a man walking-in-off-the-street, into a café full of most 20 something young ladies. That's why I didn't hesitate to pay $6.50 off their Premium Signature Menu for a Mate Latte (Espresso + milk + enalish toffee + house cream + biscoff crumble). The service was excellent, and my second purchase was rewarded with a tip reflecting it, as I saw how well they treated their other customers.

PSA because a new café just opened up in LA County and it’s too good not to share 😭✨ Mate Coffee in Hawaiian Gardens is officially my new spot. The inside is super spacious but still cozy, with plenty of seating, WiFi, and free parking (a win already). I tried the hojicha latte with the hojicha cream top AND the Wimbledon melon latte — both were so good and crafted with so much care. The flavors are unique but balanced, and they paired perfectly with the pastries. You can really tell they put intention into everything they serve. They also offer afternoon tea sets with snacks and teas, which is such a cute touch if you’re trying to chill, study, or catch up with a friend. And if you’re reading this in time, save the date because tomorrow (Friday, Dec 5) is their grand opening with BOGO specials all day 😭🫶 Hawaiian Gardens finally has a café worth gatekeeping… but I won’t. Definitely check them out!
