Café Cultura

The food here was outstanding. Everything we ordered hit the spot perfectly. Service was fast and friendly which made the whole experience even better. We got the chilaquiles burrito topped with that amazing green salsa, the churro waffles, an Abuelita latte, and a horchata latte. Every single thing was delicious and packed with flavor. The green salsa was a total standout, so tangy and fresh with just the right kick. The tortilla on the burrito was perfect, soft yet sturdy and it held everything together without getting soggy at all. Those churro waffles had that awesome crispy churro vibe with sweet toppings, and the lattes were creamy and well balanced. The Abuelita one had those warm Mexican chocolate notes and the horchata latte was classic and super satisfying. Highly recommend if you’re craving creative Mexican inspired breakfast or brunch stuff. This place really nails it!

Café Cultura has a comfortable and inviting atmosphere, and the overall setting feels relaxed. The menu offers a good selection of food and drinks, and the space itself is pleasant and welcoming ☕🥞 I tried the horchata with oat milk along with the tres leches pancake. Both were enjoyable, though nothing particularly stood out to me. It’s definitely not a bad place, just not somewhere I personally felt eager to return to. Overall, it’s a solid spot with a nice ambiance and a calm café vibe 🌿😊

I'm not a local to Azusa but I will eat here again when I'm back. The coffee is good (hot chocolate, too!) and the food is awesome. Our party tried the chilaquiles and the breakfast burrito. WOW. Probably my favorite place for chilaquiles (it's my go to test for a new restaurant because there's a lot to gauge). Portions are great (I don't hate myself), and everything was cooked to perfection (*chef's kiss*). The ambiance is cool - I love Mexican culture and music so it was a great immersive meal. Service was quick and everyone was welcoming and nice.

Came to eat here outside on a fresh day and the heaters kept us warm. The drinks were good and the food was good as well! I would recommend this place! Only got a little confused on how to order since no one was at the front door. You have to order at the front and then find your seating.

Location: Good, Parking: Across the street , Service: Mix (Order at the cashier, food is brought to the table), Presentation: Nice, Overall: I have tried this place twice and have enjoyed both meals. The restaurant was not very busy. You can eat inside or out. I will go back and try other meals. So for this place I give 4 Stars...

Amazing, first time and everything was just the best. And its difficult for me to rate everything to a 5 stars. The atmosphere was great, good vibes. Our server was Amazing. Caramel Latte just perfect...the churro waffles...ufff!..just Amazing...definitely have to bring my mom next time.😊

Ashley was amazing. the food smelled great and tasted even better. the staff was very polite and the atmosphere was very relaxing. The portions were very large the decorations and theme were very pleasing to the eye. the music was very exotic and calming at the same time. eating outside even in cold weather was great with the heat lamps they have we stayed warm.

Super clean and cool place. Feel staff is very nice and seemed happy. The food is okay. The presentation is on point but they definitely have their own way of cooking. For example, the chilaquiles were just chips with salsa on top. Usually the tortilla chips are thicker & cooked with the salsa to have a nice soft texture. The churro pancakes and the mimosa were pretty good.

The food and service are really good. Portions and prices are reasonable. In addition, the patio is pet friendly.

Café Cultura has a nice ambiance and a comfortable setting. The menu offers a good variety of food options, and overall the place feels pleasant and welcoming. I tried the horchata with oat milk and the tres leches pancake. Everything was decent and enjoyable, but nothing really stood out to me. It's not a bad place at all, just not somewhere I personally felt excited to return to. Overall, a solid spot with a nice atmosphere.

Horrible customer service and the most ridiculous "policy" I've ever encountered. While I was standing in line about to order, my kids were already seated at a table. The people ordering in front of me asked for that table, and staff actually made my kids get up and give it to them. I was told this is their "policy" -- first come, first served -- because the other customers were already ordering. So apparently, ordering food gives you the right to take a table from children who are already sitting? Absolutely unacceptable. No effort was made to accommodate us, no apology, and no common sense. We used to come here at least once a week, but after this experience, we will not be coming back. If this is how customers are treated, they don't deserve repeat business.

Cool little spot; unpretentious. Chilaquiles were good and so was the bfast burrito. They serve La Marca Prosecco , yay! Attentive staff...... Super clean! I'll definitely be back asap. Happy holidays!

The three stars go to the horchata latte... the breakfast here.. the chilaquiles is not that tasteful in flavor. In order to have flavor.. buy a pepper on the side! The torta sandwhich I ordered with no chorizo was okay. Again no flavors and the pico de gallo was pretty weak and was not fresh looking. They give you less than or about a table spoon on top a bunch of chips.. which made no sense. The pictures on the site look much better than was received.

Cafe Cultura in the City of Azusa have an inviting decor and ambiance. It also have good food and drink selection. You order at the cashier, then you pick your seat and the server brings the order to you. So be aware of this style. I personally prefer to be seated and order at the table . Service was quick and the staff are attentive. My friend and I ordered the Verde Steak Torta and the Chicken Acapulco Torta. The steak was chewy, very disappointing. The chicken torta taste way better. Thank goodness for the Cajeta Latte, it was that good that I will give this cafe another visit. I will come back and try the rest of their specialty lattes.

The food & coffee were both delicious! Service was great, we were greeted as soon as we walked in. We loved the vibe & decor here too!

Attended this location for the first time for an end of semester get together. The food was a 7/10; the service was a 10/10 and the Ambiance was a 8/10.

FIRST TIMER. This place has been on my list to go and I'm so glad I went. 10/10 experience. There is only 1 line (whether you take it to go or decide to dine in) and the lovely worker came out to give us menus to look over as we waited to place our order. We decided to try a bit of everything because it all sounded so good! There were about 6 people in front of us and we waited 15 minutes to place our order. Not bad at all. The lovely man behind the register gave us complimentary cookies and they were delicious ! They have complimentary water right next to the register for everyone to help themselves to. We waited about 10-15 minutes for our food after we sat down (you can sit anywhere that is available and open once you place your order). The torta came about 25-30 minutes in but it's okay, we were enjoying everything else while we waited. The music is exceptional! It brought me back so many memories that I had stored in my head (some artists I recall being played were REIK & Shakira). It's a vibe! Everything we had was delicious and the workers were amazing ! I cannot wait to come back and try more menu items. 10/10 highly recommend you try this place when you're in the area or when you're looking for a new place to go to.

Café cultura is one of the good one based off of new modernized Mexican restaurants. I typically enjoy their chilaquiles and cafe de olla as it's popular amongst the Latin tradition Chilaquiles are a tad spicy, I usually get the green salsa, with no meat. They come with beans on the bottom with a generous amount of cream & cheese on top it balances the dish perfectly. The restaurant is set up as an order your food & seat yourself type of deal. Then your food will be brought to your table as soon as it's ready. There is seating both inside and outside so finding a table won't be a problem. This place is great for a quick breakfast by yourself or to catch up and hang out with friends.

This place feels like home. If I could design my dream neighborhood, it would include a little village street where I can walk out of my house and stroll over for a cafecito and a solid breakfast. That's what Cafe Cultura is to me. The chilaquiles always hit the spot, and the breakfast torta never disappoints. The menu has plenty of great brunch options, and the vibe is even better. The team here is young, kind, and outgoing. They actually seem like they enjoy working at Cultura, which makes the experience that much warmer. I really hope the owners are rewarding them, because their energy is everything. Whether you're coming in for a solo recharge, a brunch date, or some family time, this spot just works. I highly recommend Cafe Cultura. Maybe I'll see you there.

My husband was so excited to try this place, he found it on instagram and kept insisting we give it a try. The place is super cute and the decor is beautiful, the music pairs really well with the vibe. We weren't fans on paying up front and not having the option of an open tab, but we just went along with it! The menu all sounds great and even looks great, however lacking flavor. We were very disappointed in the tortas and chilaquiles! We totally would have give this place another try, but what really killed it for us was the service! The young lady who brought out the food had a horrible attitude and even made comments that left us shocked! Everything was an annoyance to her and she seemed like she didn't want to be there. They kept bringing up they close at 2 and literally were closing down the restaurant and we felt rushed out. We definitely will not be returning.

This place is really cute and the atmosphere is very chill. You go in, order your food and sit wherever you want. The service was pretty fast!! This isn't like a restaurant that has servers checking in on you at all times or you wait a while to be seated, get your food, pay for your food; but this isn't a bad thing. Even though the staff doesn't interact much after they hand you your food and drinks, they're all very nice and approachable! The aesthetics is very beautiful and I found the food simple in taste, but still well put together and had a great time with friends here. I would come back again.

Came here on a Saturday morning about 10:30 AM. There was a little line, but it wasn't too bad. You put your order on the register and pay first before finding a table. Tons of outdoor seating and a little bit of indoor seating. Outdoor seating is well covered with lots of shade and a nice breeze. It was a beautiful day so we decided to sit outside. My friend and I have the habit of ordering two different items and sharing the food. I ordered the abuelita pancakes with strawberries and she ordered the burrito. Both items were so delicious. We had a mixture of savory and sweet, which we loved. Their blended drinks and hot drinks are also really good. It wasn't overly sugary and sweet , but actually perfectly sweetened. I will definitely be back. The prices are great as well and the service was good.

Great place. I would definitely come back again. I'll come back They have food and dri ks

Food was good. Authentic flavors. Seating indoors and outdoors. You order at the counter then find a seat so be prepared for that. Service after our food was delivered was very attentive. It can be a little loud but still enjoyable.

Excited to try this place but unfortunately it was a let down. The red chilaquiles lacked flavor. Added steak but received a very small portion. Not worth the bang for your buck. The cafe de olla tasted watered down. It's not freshly made, tasted like hot water with a cinnamon package added at the end. My coffee was forgotten so I did have to ask a waiter twice to please bring me my coffee. Bacon was also missing on one of the entrees.

Stopped here for a quick coffee and was served extremely fast. The worker was helpful in deciding what to order and the coffee tasted amazing. It was just the right amount of sweetness. Will definitely be coming back.

Ample parking in the back of the business and 2 EV charging stations . Outdoor / indoor dining available . Walk up to order , no wait staff . The staff here were friendly , they all greeted us warmly as we enter . I had the Pan Dulche French toast with assorted fruits , And avocado toast with chorizo , Both of these dishes were delicious . My husband opted for chilaquiles breakfast burritos . He never had chilaquiles in a burrito before so wanted to try . He stated it was okay , When wrapped in a burrito the tortilla chips were soggy and a tad salty . He thinks it is better served in a plate .

First breakfast spot we tried in Covina. The service was amazing. The ambiance wasn't too loud and there was shaded areas for eating outside. The food was great and my kid loved the concha's.

First off, the people working this morning were so friendly and nice. I walked in to be greeted from everyone who walked by. I had looked at the menu online to get an idea of what they had to offer and knew I wanted the churro waffle. The waffle came out crispy, cooked perfectly and a strong churro taste. It also included berries and whipped cream. Delicious!! The restaurant offers plenty of seating inside and outside on the patio. Plenty of parking as well on the street and in the lot behind. I will definitely be back to try more items like the chilaquiles and maybe a sandwich.

I love the vibe and decor at Café Cultura, but I really dislike having to order at the counter. I prefer to sit, relax, and order at the table without feeling rushed. Therefore I'll stay away until change of operations. Grat food Horrible experience

Let me tell you something. The young man with the curly hair is rude! Guess he's the one running the show. Lacks any type of professionalism and any ounce of customer service. We came in a group and spent a lot of money here for breakfast. We were at a local show and planned to eat there throughout the day. After that experience, that we decided to not spend a dime here and spend it with local vendors instead. That guy is costing you a lot of money. Everyone coming out of there said the same thing about the same guy. He needs to go. He's ruining your image. Not the guy that should be at the forefront of your restaurant. He'd be much better away from the public. Aside from him.. everyone else was great! Sucks that this one guy angered soo many people.

Was in the area so I had to try out this place! I love the decor and the staff was super friendly. Like many of the reviews say you order before you sit and you can sit wherever you and your party would like to sit. I enjoy the self-service aspect to it but they do being your food to you! The food was amazing- I got the avocado toast with soyrizo AMAZING and my table shared a michelada flight. Some of the best combinations I've tried so I recommend trying the flight even if you're not a beer person like me! Definitely worth the price (which isn't expensive at all) and I'll be coming back for sure.

Friendly and quick service. Order at register and pay, with servers bringing your food to you after. Cleanliness was not ideal, as there were ants on the table and a dead fly along the window to our table. We had their Cafe de Olla (less sweet than typical ones I've had before, but also less strong coffee). Abuelita pancakes were great, and would recommend. A Latin fusion spin to a chocolate chip pancakes, that didn't need maple syrup. Chilaquiles were standard. I appreciated the texture as it was less soggy than I've gotten at other places. Their El Famoso Breakfast Burrito was also pretty standard. I did get their red salsa on the side which did add nice heat, but without it, would have much flavor. Would come back again since they have an extensive menu selection that still looked interesting to try. However if not in the area, probably not necessarily worth a detour

I love the food here, but unfortunately, the customer service was very disappointing. While I was waiting at the register behind a couple who were still ordering, I had my 22-year-old son and teen daughter go take a seat since I was next. One of the young employees approached them with a rude attitude and told them to get up and leave. After that, she went around telling the other staff what happened, and from then on, all the young ladies working there gave us unfriendly looks and made us feel completely unwelcome. My husband asked to speak to a manager, but we were told, "We don't have a manager today." The lead in charge was also rude and simply repeated that it's their weekend policy. The attitude and lack of professionalism from the staff left a lasting negative impression. It's unfortunate that such great food was overshadowed by such poor treatment.

Went for the first time. I ordered and waited 45 minutes for my order and noticed I wasn't the only customer waiting a long time. The chilaquiles were really good so I give them another

Food , fresh cafe style order at couter and bring it out for you ssrvice friendly ambiance unique style

Service was great they were quick and easy to talk to. They have different drink options like coffees, water, juices, mimosas. Their food selection is great. I recommend the chilaquiles and adding steak, very delicious. The churro waffle was good but a little too crunchy for my personal preference. Establishment is clean inside. There's lots of patio seating available.

A fantastic spot for brunch or just to hang out. The warm, inviting atmosphere, combined with a menu full of creative and delicious options, makes it an ideal place to start your day. The chilaquiles is a must get and my fav on their menu. The crispy tortillas perfectly balance the rich, flavorful sauce, creating a dish that's both hearty and comforting. Topped with a generous amount of queso fresco, crema, and fresh cilantro, the chilaquiles have a fresh and vibrant taste. The portion size is satisfying without being overwhelming. Churro waffles is crispy on the outside with a soft, fluffy interior, the waffle is dusted with just the right amount of cinnamon sugar, giving it that signature churro flavor. Every bite is a perfect balance of sweetness and warmth with fresh strawberries and blueberries.

We drove from Pasadena to give this place a try! The staff very nice and ambiance too however, not impressed by the food at all!!! We ordered "El Famoso" burrito added steak (dry and not tasty). Abueluta Chocokate Pancakes which were dry and flavorless even with the abuelita syrup drizzle and chocolate chips. I didn't want to embarrass anyone by requesting a refund for the pancakes that were only tasted. We will not be going back here.

we have been wanting to to try this place for a long time. when you walk in the door you have to be in line before you see the cashier and order. it was pretty organized that way there are signs on the table that you cannot save the table unless you are done ordering. we have ordered 2 al pastor burrito and pancakes and some coffee. We waited around 30 minutes for that simple order and they made a mistake but it was acceptable since there are 2 of the same number ( management please note there should only one number that should be out on the table) The burrito was just ok . I don't think that the price is worth with what was served to us. Although our server Blanca was friendly . plenty of out tables. They have nice selection of drinks. beers and. coffee. Clean bathroom as well.

This is hands-down my favorite spot for Mexican breakfast/brunch. I've been here twice and ordered the same thing both times--the house chilaquiles verdes with chorizo. SO DAMN GOOD. This place is basically perfect for me: amazing food and solid coffee. On our most recent visit, we got two entrées and two iced coffees, and the total came out to around $50. The only downside is that the food takes a while to come out, but I like to believe it's because everything is made to order--everything always tastes super fresh and delicious. The staff is friendly, though we don't have much interaction beyond ordering and getting our food. Bonus: there's plenty of parking near the CVS.

Food was great and came out quick! I ordered the green chillaquiles with over easy eggs, you can get this as a burrito if you want. The purple conchas were expensive, $1.20 more than the normal concha prices but still tasty, their cinnamon black coffee was tasty as well I would return!

Amazing food, great customer service. I like to go and sit on the patio. Take out my laptop and just enjoy a nice cup of coffee there.

Chat made me. It does say that the review needs to be at least 85 characters so I will say this, this genuinely might've been one of the best bean and cheese burritos I've ever had. Amazing customer service and the vibes were great! -@yoeats23

Service was sooo soooooo slow. Can you guys stop chitchatting and serve food as soon as it ready? I saw food sitting out for like 15 min before it was taken. Not Exaggerating. People handing out the food looked lost. They gave our dishes the grand tour of the cafe before bringing it to the table. Place is also dirty, had so many flies by our table inside. When I asked for condiments, waiter obviously looked upset. Staff is young and look like they don't care. I guess I should be eating this dry flavorless food with no salsa. The only thing this place has going for it is the coffee. The cold brew de la olla was great. The pictures of the food fooled me. Looks good but lack so much flavor.

Great food , I recommend the Chilaquiles with green sauce very good also the chocolate & banana liquado drink is very delicious. If you come early enough, they have fresh conchas that are also very tasty. Clean restroom good customer service ,they have a patio that's dog friendly a plus for me and my fur baby .

Not too busy on a Saturday morning. You order at the counter and then you pick a place to seat and they serve you by a number. You can call for them to reserve a spot for a special day. Their food is delicious and the outside porch area is beautiful. Their coffee is delicious as well, they have speciality coffees and mimosas by glass or by bottle. (:

I loved it was really great banana foster pancakes, chorizo avocado toast, and cafe de olla was on point

For the Cultura Every time I passed by this spot, it was like seeing a fresh pot of arroz con leche simmering on the stove--tempting, comforting, and absolutely on my list to try. The food always looked like it could deliver, and let me tell you, it does. Flavor? Nailed. Consistency? Solid. Delivery? Spot on. But then I started wondering, ¿Por qué no tiene una calificación más alta? Why isn't this place rated higher? And then I went there... and found my answer. It's not the food--it's the falta de hospitalidad. Now, no one was rude or mean, but let's just say the staff could use a little more abuelita energy. You know, the kind where someone greets you at the door with "Mijo, pásale, siéntate, te traigo algo ahorita mismo." Instead, I got vibes of "figure it out yourself, compa." Here's the rundown: it's a place where you order at the counter, pay, and then seat yourself. Simple enough, except no one--nadie--said hello, acknowledged me, or even threw a "ya mero te atiendo." And when I finally got to the register, the cashier told me I could go sit, decide what to order, and come back when I was ready. Cool, right? Except when I did, another staff member hit me with "back of the line, buddy," like I'd missed my turn at the DMV. Enter Ariana--the heroína of this story. After watching me stand in line twice, while her coworkers socialized like they were at a quinceañera, she jumped in, took my order with a smile, and showed the kind of hospitality this place deserves! She was attentive, kind, and actually seemed like she wanted to be there. Gracias, Ariana! So here's the deal: the food is 5 stars all day--pepitas of gold. The staff? Young, maybe inexperienced, and still figuring it out. Worth the visit? Totally, if you pack a little patience. Just pray you get Ariana, porque ella sí entiende la cultura. #MexicanFoodDoneRight #ForMyCultura #CustomerServiceMatters

Food is average. Nothing to write home about. Ethan was pleasant and friendly even when he was busy. Restaurant atmosphere is meh.

Staff is horrible and when you order online they do not look at the order correctly and always have my food delivered incorrectly. Then in order to have my correct food made I have to go in person to pick it up when originally I ordered my food to be delivered, major inconvenience. The staff talks back to you when your are explaining your frustration. Just horrible no good customer service which is a same cuz I'm a long time customer and have invited family to go eat there. Never again. Hopefully with this experience the restaurant can improve when taking orders online

Great food! Had the breakfast burrito and café de olla, both were amazing. But let's talk about the real MVP... the bathroom. Spotless. Pristine. A throne fit for a king. 10/10 would dine (and recline) again

If we didn't have enough reasons to love this place, here's another. We love the red chilaquiles, the orange juice is delicious. The STAFF is what puts the "cinnamon sprinkle onto top" The gentleman taking our order was very nice and chatty, Evelyn, the kitchen staff is so sweet. The food is good, the coffee too. The staff is my favorite though.

Came here early Saturday morning for brunch. Not too crowded and you order up front and get a number. I tried out a the coffee here and it was refreshing. The cafe de olla is served black but had the flavors. Also tried the cold brew de olla which is the same but cold. Both were good and I enjoyed them not being too sweetened. In terms of food I got these. El Famoso Breakfast Burrito - A pretty standard breakfast burrito. It was good, I wish it came with more salsa on the side for the chips and burrito though. Overall solid choice. (4/5) Pan Dulce French Toast - If you enjoy sweets for breakfast this is a must get. Flavors were unique yet comforting. Texture was soft and the extra fruits took it to the top. (5/5) Overall a solid brunch/breakfast spot for those in Azusa. Parking is shared with cvs and there are plenty of spots.

Steak quesadilla was delicious. We also tried green chilaquiles very good and crunchy. Servers very attentive. Such a cute cafe spot.

Wasn't what I expected this is a place I'd go for drinks not food. $50 for two price was for breakfast

Chilaquiles 8.5/10. "El Famoso" is famous for what? Choking people to death? 6/10 tops. One of the driest and flavorless burritos I've ever had. Please is interesting. Not sure what was converted, needs just a little on the aesthetic side. If they ever change the burrito and add a sauce, crema, or something to make it edible, I'd be willing to be invited back to review again.
