JOi Café

Best vegan food in the valley, all the staff are extremely welcoming, and the place is clean and beautiful. We had the bagel sandwich with beyond, and the scramble which were both amazing. The whoopie pie was recommended, with good reason- top tier dessert. Also grabbed a "Space Bar" candy, and it was very very sweet so keep that in mind when you get one. I actually wanted really sweet so it was perfect for me. Also coffee- can't forget this. Stopped by a lot of coffee shops and this place actually knows how to pull good shots and steam milk. Very consistent and smooth lattes. 10/10.

This plant-based café is an absolutely marvelous place to get yourself a vegan meal. It’s often hard for vegans to find robust breakfast options, but they’ve got you covered here. From pancakes, to French toast, to huevos rancheros. I was very happy to see the large spread and selection. I had the vegan egg scramble and they did not skimp on the portion size. There’s also a wonderful selection of coffees and juices, as well as pastries. The staff was very kind and helpful and there’s plenty of seating available. You really can’t go wrong if you’re looking for a vegan breakfast and stop by JOi Café!

The food was fresh, delicately flavorful (the flavors worked so well together) and beautifully presented. The service was next level fast, friendly and welcoming. It was during a busy lunch time, yet the tables still allowed for comfort and it wasn’t loud.

Fully vegan Cafe with many healthy and gluten free options. They offer delicious drinks and pastries, as well as savory breakfast and lunch options. We enjoyed the pancakes and the breakfast burrito, and some lattes. Really flavorful and filling. Would totally reccomend!!!

Fave vegan cafe. They have EVERYTHING! And you don’t have to be vegan to love their food and drinks- good food is good food :)

I absolutely love this place! I make it a point to visit every time I am in the area. Everything I’ve ever ordered from there is mine blowing delicious. My favorites are the avocado toast with just egg, the avocado toast with mozzarella (why did I never think of that?!), and all their smoothies are really good too. Highly recommend!

Fantastic place with very good plant based food. Lots of gluten free options. Super friendly and helpful staff

Fun and welcoming vibe. Unique coffees/drinks to go along with the standards. Lots of pastry, snacks and health food options. Easy parking in a very convenient location (nearby 101 fwy).

I am pretty sure I've been eating at Joi Cafe for more than a decade. The food is ALWAYS so delicious and the staff is extremely helpful. I love the place and feel so good after having a nutritious meal. Highly recommend the fun toona! :) Visit. You won't regret it.

This place is amazing, don't listen to the negative reviews. It's been a go to of mine as a local for years! Best matcha, tacos, seasonal items, they keep the menu interesting, and as a gluten free + vegan person I am so grateful for this sanctuary.

JOI Cafe is delightful! Seven year-old Olivia and I would be there every week if it were closer to Santa Monica We love the variety and organic, healthy options...and also the sweets like the peanut butter chocolate JOI ball ;) Service is consistently lovely. On the Fourth of July, we drove up to buy a blueberry pie only to find out they were all sold out. We left disappointed but by the time we got back to the car, JOI had added a point to our account, just because As for the ambiance, it's such a clean, JOIful place with indoor and outdoor seating, puzzles to buy, and inspiring messages everywhere

The matcha was the best I ever had at a shop or cafe. It's ceremonial too. The menu looks great can't wait to try everything. Including food. Cute gift shop area too ! Nice ambience to study or do lap top work Quick reviews just for you

Joi cafe is so cute, the interior is decorated well and they have lots of vegan products displayed around the front of the store. Service was quick and easy. I ordered an iced mocha latte. It tasted great! It did have a gritty texture, though. I'm not sure if it's because of an ingredient in the coffee, but just a heads up. Otherwise it would have been a 10/10 for me!

Service has much improved since my last visit. I also ordered the fajita chicken salad three days in a row. Got one extra large ranch on the side and a habanero salsa. It's enough for two but it's my only meal of the day. The Thai me up salad is great too. It's busy at breakfast times. Picking up orders is still a bit of a wait if there's a line. Nice little cafe, nice employees. Good for cyclists, hikers, and locals alike. Outdoor seating is nice, shade or sun. Farmers market in the parking lot on Sundays makes Joi Cafe even more fun. (They often source bread from the five frogs stand, hope that wasn't a company secret lol. The same stand has a yummy vegan chocolate croissant and cinnamon roll if you're early enough but I don't think they sell them at Joi. Joi has a decent chocolate chip cookie, some additional rotating pastries as well.)

Worth the drive from Studio City! Had the Bagel Sandwich always flavorful with a wonderful aioli sauce, and a side salad (you can also have fruit). And the Minty Matcha which I highly recommend. The staff is professional and helpful even when they are very busy. Very efficient and welcoming and the overall atmosphere is calming even when packed. You can't go wrong as the owner has truly taken the time to ensure each item on the menu is a wonderful blend of flavors.

Absolutely delicious, met the owners and they where delightful to interact with. The employees are helpful and well put together. I had a cortado that was to die for and the French toast was perfect.

Love!! From the food and ambience to the staff. I've been going here for years and probably tried everything, all has been fab. I especially love their coffee and even purchase beans to brew at home. Really hope Joi continues to thrive as I always want to support plant-based businesses.

We love Joi Cafe. We are vegans and drive here every weekend from North Hollywood for years. It has one of the coolest atmospheres and some of the best coffee we've had in Los Angeles. They always have unique vegan food available. All the staff is incredible and very kind and friendly. Joi should be proud she has created such a wonderful place that brings everybody so much joy.

Joi Cafe is amazing! Fresh delicious coffee and food (the Chili and Cornbread is AMAZING)! I'm not even a vegan and I looovvvveeee coming here! Joi, the owner, is the sweetest. Come here and support local. You won't regret it!

JOI Cafe is AMAAAAZING!!! I got the Golden Buddha latte along with Sausage & Hash. It's was incredible. Great vibe and pleasant staff. I'll definitely be coming back. Maybe tomorrow!!! omarr

Whoever designed their interior knew what they were doing creating an inviting "sit and stay for a bit " type of vibe . All the merch and goodies on display kept my adhd self busy enough to not mind waiting on my order. We ordered: Decaf Ginger Lemongrass hot tea tasted better than I expected tbh . It's light and smooth with a very subtle floral aroma . Makes me feel all cozy inside. Drip coffee with 2 sticks of stevia was ok. Very light in flavor. Breakfast Burrito came out hot, nicely wrapped and readily cut in half. Also came with a side of green salsa that was light and not too spicy imo. So glad I ordered this! Was a bit hesitant after seeing mixed reviews about it being dry. Mine was made to perfection from texture of all the fillings & tortilla wrap to the compilation of flavors combined. Ham and Cheese Croissant was toasted for us . It's not bad for a small bite that's slightly filling. Tasted good like a ham and cheese should. Good flakiness not toooo messy.

Love the vibe. Really cute with the decor and vibe. Feels welcoming and fun with the colors and books, candles etc. Ordered a matcha and a breakfast burrito. Wish matcha was warmer but it was good. Breakfast burrito was okay. Just wasn't a huge fan since it was all vegetarian. Would like to try the pancakes next time. Huge plus is that there is a changing table in your bathroom for parents with kiddos!

Great spot for some coffee and grub (pastries, toasts, cookies, muffins, tacos, burger, burritos, salad/harvest bowls, soup). Located in a strip mall with plenty of parking in the private lot. They have a lot of seating both inside and outside. The cafe has a nice, cozy, and warm vibe to it. Overall, it's clean and service is prompt. 1. G.V.O (5/5) Seriously the best coffee creation! A combination of cinnamon, rich chocolate, Orange Zest & CBD with almond or oat milk. I prefer it with oat milk for extra creaminess and depth. The espresso is also strong and comes through + compliments the chocolate. I love that it's rich, but yet, not too sweet. The Joi Chai latte is another one of my favorite drinks! 2. Tacos (3.5/5) 1 order comes with 2 tacos. I got chicken and jackfruit 'Fish' with Fajita-Style bell peppers, onions, fresh tropical salsa, crisp cabbage, guacamole, and drizzled with sriracha aioli on warm organic corn tortillas. Comes also in chorizo for those who like/prefer pork. All of the ingredients were fresh. Wish they were not as skimpy on the proteins (chicken and fish). The corn tortilla was overpowering most of the flavor. 3. Pumpkin Spice Croissant French Toast (4/5) A fall special. Cinnamon & Pumpkin Spice Croissant French Toast. Made from vegan croissant coated in a 'egg' dip & grilled to perfection. Topped with a medley of seasonal organic berries and a dollop of creamy coconut whipped cream, which was not sweet, but delightfully light, airy, and cloud-like. Overall, I really enjoy Joibirds cafe. Sad to see the Thousand Oaks location close.

Always a joi to come here ! Good food and good matchazzzz ! And the service is kind. A gem in Westlake

Joi is hands down my favorite restaurant. Yes, it's gluten-free and vegan--but all you'll talk about after eating there is how good the food is. My only complaint? I wish they were open later for dinner!

Joi is always delicious! I'm a little sad the menu isn't 100% gluten free anymore, but everything is clearly labeled and there are still more than enough yummy options. Although my favorite is the everything bagel sandwich (breakfast bagel? I always forget the name of it lol) and I usually end up ordering that whenever I go. I don't live in the area anymore and I try to visit whenever I'm in town. Highly recommend subbing the side for a kale Caesar salad. It's so good my 10-year-old would ask for just the salad. And he is not a veggie lover at all!

I was visiting the farmers market in the square one sunday morning and craving a morning beverage- i am basic and love a weekend matcha from a cafe. Stopped by Joi cafe as it was recommended by a friend- cute cafe with some light bites and bakery items on offer and a menu filled with interesting drinks for coffee and non-caffeinated, juices etc. Seems pretty health conscious too which i love- offering gluten free options and non-dairy for the drinks. The lady at the register taking my order was so pleasant and friendly, I had a few questions on the different drinks they had and what was in them and she happily talked me through the ingredients and flavors in each drink. I went for the blue butterfly (thought I'd switch it up from my usual matcha- although their matcha menu is pretty elite with different flavor matcha drinks) which was a perfect choice- this drink was so delicious; perfectly sweet and creamy and steamy hot, i wish every cafe had this drink on offer so i could get it more often! Their to-go cups are the cutest also- love the design with the hummingbird on it- a little work of art cup. The food choices they had looked great also- nice colorful bright interior in this organically conscious cafe, seems pretty popular and has a good buzz about it.

the coffee here was okay, but the matcha had some weird black particles at the bottom, not too sure if that was coffee ground. The service was okay, definitely not the best. The ambiance was mediocre at best, it can be improved but I most likely won't return.

Unfortunate rude treatment. I hope the owner sees this because Joi is one of my go to places in the Conejo, but today, July 19, 2025 at approx 3:56pm, my wife and I walked up to the register, where the cashier was standing cleaning a glass case. She looked up at us, a Latina woman looking at two black women, said nothing, then resumed cleaning the glass case. We walked away kind of thinking she was not a cashier because of the rude treatment. But, as soon as a white customer entered, she happily gave her service. I really wanted to make sure you are aware of this because that is not the standard of service at Joi and I hope it will not be tolerated.

Joi Cafe is the absolute best. One of my all time fav spots. Lovely ambiance outside and inside. Friendly, warm, welcoming staff. Delicious organic, plant based, vegan, and gluten free meals and desserts locally owned and run. Especially love the kimchi grilled cheese, gluten free, warm, and toasted with watermelon, melon, and strawberry fruit. Matcha and almond milk lattes are the best made with organic whole coffee beans. We love getting our bulk coffee beans here and adore the vegan and gluten free desserts: cookies, donuts, chocolates, and more. Awesome gender neutral restrooms and refill water stations. All around amazing. Thank you for this slice of paradise!

Joi Finding good quality coffee places that have consistently great tasting coffee, excellent service and the right atmosphere is really challenging in the Conejo Valley / Westlake area. Joi fits the bill; my Oatmilk Lattes are always superb as are my Cortado's- rich coffee taste with a creamy flavorful froth .. coffee is also organic. The cafe is always clean as is the outside patio area, (plenty of shade ) and the 'two all gender' restrooms have always been spotless. *If you are planning on a Sunday morning visit be mindful that it will be extremely busy and parking will be tricky as there is a Farmers Market held in the parking lot most Sundays.

This place is PERFECT for some healthy and fresh food! We had the pancakes (phenomenal), bagel sandwich, and Thai salad. Everything was great and our little one loved the pancakes and the peanut butter/berry smoothie! I also had the vanilla bean matcha which was divine!! My husband was skeptical about oatmilk since he's used to dairy but he actually loved his latte! Truly a gem, I wish we lived closer!

If you have not yet visited Joi Cafe, you are missing the finest casual eatery in the greater LA area. Even if you are not vegan, you will want to return for the amazing food and the best coffee available anywhere. Joi is the amazing owner and she personally ensures everyone has an exceptional dining experience. Go to Joi Cafe and Coffee Bar and you will thank me later.

Such a great place for anyone with allergies or sensitivities! If you need to avoid gluten or dairy, you are safe here and will actually ENJOY what you eat! Wonderful ambience if you're staying, or great option for grab-and-go. All the food and drinks we've ever tried have been great. Their pancakes are a top breakfast pick, and of the many matchas I have tried, I always go back here!

Burnt empanada and plastic to-go sauce cup and lid. All of this is highly carcinogenic. Why are they choosing to NOT be environmentally friendly? As for the burnt empanada, are you kidding me? BURNT FOOD IS TOXIC!!!

Best clean vegan foods ever! Been coming here for years. This was one of the few restaurants I could take my son with food allergies and say, pick anything!!! Love the fun tuna:) staff is wonderful.

the coffee is off the charts good. food is fantastic. Atmosphere is amazing. Great people watching. can't recommend highly enough. It can be pricey, but you get what you pay for here.

Quality ingredients, exceptional taste, a variety of offerings, and an always-friendly staff. JOi Cafe has a chic vibe and is a great place to meet up with friends.

Joi is an amazing place to come grab a bite. The food and drinks are great. The vibes are easy and fun. Everybody is welcome.

Avocado toast - YES!!!! Delicious. Mac & cheese with side Caesar salad - SO good. GVO coffee I could drink every day. I am not vegan, but I continue to be impressed with everything I have tasted on their menu. Have my heart set on tacos the next time I go in.

Great food. Was just looking for something vegetarian friendly. Didn't know this was full BFF Friendly! Taco Taco / you can choose from different meats. I had the chicken and Soyrizo. Loved it and highly recommended. Flavors popped off the plate. Fun Tuna Sandwich / really good as well. But the star of the show was the bread. What!!! I could eat a loaf of that. The tuna was nice tasting - I just remember a place on Maui (Down to Earth) had a chunky mock tuna salad that I preferred - added more texture. But this was good too. Let's just say, there was no leftovers. Haha Broccoli cheese soup - yup! Would order this again and again. Hard to believe this is cream free. Fun place. Lively. Great food.

My family and I are frequent guests at Joi Cafe. Every time we go here we feel like we are welcomed like family. In addition, the food, coffee and treats are consistently delicious. We always leave Joi with our stomachs and hearts full!

If I could put zero stars I would. We had a horrible experience today at Joi Cafe Westlake. I ordered online with the QR code at the table and while two of our drinks were ready within 10 minutes, our other two drinks took 30 minutes to arrive. We were made late for an appointment due to this. We had to remind the baristas twice about our order, which made me believe they forgot about our order. The employees were rude and told us to "be more patient". We couldn't wait that long for drinks especially with our kids being thirsty on an extremely hot day. Unfortunately, when I asked the manager Andrea for a refund for only the two late drinks (which I thought reasonable), she made every single excuse to not refund me. She said the computer system was down all of the sudden. Then after much resistance she offered a gift card, which doesn't help because we won't be coming back to Joi Cafe after this experience. The worst experience here was that Andrea the manager put "crazy" on my gift card receipt, which says a lot about her character. Obviously she wanted to say that comment to my face, but couldn't in public at the cafe. Too bad the service is horrible and the employees are down right mean. Your feelings will be hurt here. Photo for proof. Never going back there. Save your peace and don't go. They don't care about the customers. I'm a Reiki energy worker and the energy here is horrible.

Flavorful and fresh vegan food! I love the breakfast scramble and lavender matcha latte. The baked goods are also delicious. On the weekends this place gets absolutely packed around 10:30/11 AM so plan accordingly but they have fast service. My husband and brother who typically don't go for vegan food still enjoyed their meals and we have come back several times now. Parking is easy and the vibes are good. As someone who isn't vegan but can't have dairy or eggs, it's so convenient and refreshing to have a breakfast option that works for me! Definitely get a latte here.

Everything seems very delicious here. I had a hard time deciding what to order for my brunch because everything looks so good! Everything that I ordered all tasted so good! The pancake is the just have, but burrito and açaí bowl are all delicious! I'd definitely come back when I'm in the area!

Their menu LIES to you, it said classic burger but instead of meat they give you a bean patty. After asking the waiter to describe the burger, he goes on all details about everything except the fact that there is NO meat. The $5 americano was good.

I would not recommend. Unless you have all day for mediocre food. I waited 20 minutes for a premade empanada to be warmed and a chimichurri that looks and taste like it's out of a jar and it's been sitting for a couple of weeks. The one good thing I will mention is at the Cafe look is very cute.

Love. That's what this place is, Love and Joy. Or should I say Joi? A coffee shop with a real breakfast and lunch menu, and don't even get me started on the smoothies. I got the Blue Lavender Collagen smoothie (I removed the collagen). It was stunning on the websites and came just so to me. One note is the sunflower butter is very rich and strong. I might sub it if that's not your thing. The rest of the flavored are balanced perfectly. I came during lunch so naturally it was fairly busy although my order came fast and I felt very taken care of. Plenty of comfortable outdoor and indoor seating. I will be back, hope to see you there.

Great vibes with an element of fun! The Classic JOi tastes like a steaming brownie in a mug and the toasts are delightful. I have yet to try one of the many mouth-watering pastries as I am overwhelmed by the choices. It's a good thing I am only working in this area temporarily or I would go broke!

Slow slow slow. Waited 10m for an ice tea. They need more staff for the weekends. They didn't have enough people to run that place. It was a disaster and watching people wait so long for food and drinks was sad.

Best coffee in town. Food is craveable and is always consistently great!!! Everyone that works there is friendly. The service is quick too It's a hip place to meet up with friends.

I had a $5 coupon that expired today so I decided to use it. I had the Huevos Rancheros. OMG!! It was amazing. I can't believe that it had a vegan egg it tastes better than a regular egg. Cortado coffee was mid. I was irritated by the $1 charge for salsa. The spirulina lemonade was great. My son loved the donut on a previous visit. I had the bagel on this visit and ate it on a hike. It might of been better fresh. All in all glad I came by. They're doing a great job! I can't wait for the new location to open. It's a little closer to home.

The mint matcha is seasonal but so delicious. The breakfast burrito was filling, enough to keep half for later or share. Friendly and helpful staff. A beautiful space to meet up with friends for brunch.

I was here yesterday, and very disappointed with the new menu, I was looking for my favorite salad and it was no longer available. I got a blueberry muffin, which was okay and a scone that is harder than a rock. I wanted to eat it but it was literally impossible to even break off a piece! It is a weapon!! Lol

Went for brunch Saturday at 10am and found inside seating easily. Wide variety of selection, great food (all vegan!), and amazing service. We got the hazelnut iced latte with oat milk (this was perfect for those that like sweet and creamy coffee) and the hot latte was less sweet and still tasty. For food the French toast came with lots of nuts and fruit - the vegan whipped cream it came with was delicious. We got a bagel sandwich -- bagel was nice and soft. Very fresh. And we got the poke salad (skipped the watermelon since it's marinated in onion and we don't eat onion garlic). It was very flavorful and it was nice to be able to eat the wasabi aioli dressing! Definitely recommend. We got the vegan triple chocolate cake after from the pastry fridge but didn't think it was worth the money. Everything else was perfect!

Best vegan in the area You walk up and order and pay for your food and then grab a number if busy and find a seat Seating inside and out I highly recommend the .... Breakfast The breakfast Burritos With potatoes, vegan breakfast 'sausage', tofu turmeric 'egg' scramble, grilled onions & peppers, spinach, shaved carrots, cilantro & avocado pesto in a chia & flax tortilla wrap with fresh melon con chile y limón & salsa. For lunch/dinner ... The JOi Lasagna Rich tomato 'meat' sauce layered with creamy cashew ricotta, zucchini & lasagna, and topped with fresh basil. Yummy

Ok so some the food was good I had the aloha avo toast, and my daughter got the pancakes with scrambled tofu on the side. The pancakes and toast were good but wow the portions were so small. Kind of ridiculous how small it was. We ordered 3 drinks, the toast, 2 orders of pancakes, brownie, a cake and 2 scones. And it came out to 100$. I'm sorry but Is this supposed to be a fancy breakfast? We were still hungry. The rainbow cake was terrible it tasted like wax. The tofu was so bad it was literally inedible. They literally put some tofu and a ton of turmeric on top that's all I could taste. Was so disappointed.
