La La Land

This place has become one of my daily routines. The warm and cozy ambiance, coupled with the cute vibes, makes it a delightful place to visit. Every time I go, I’m greeted with a welcoming and friendly attitude. Sophie and Sam, my baristas, are incredibly lovely, patient, and helpful. I absolutely adore them! The hazelnut toast is a favorite of mine and my mom’s. I highly recommend it. Their drinks are incredibly delicious, and everything else is simply amazing.

I love this coffee shop. If you’re a matcha lover, I absolutely loved the Upside Down Matcha Latte and the La La Matcha. The La La Matcha is perfect if you’re trying matcha for the first time. For coffee, the Iced Banana Cloud was also delicious and super creamy. I love that you can sit down and really enjoy your drink. There can be a bit of a line, but it’s totally worth it. ✨

A bit overhyped I went and waited a long line and it definitely is not a place to come sit down and get coffee it’s a grab and go place the actually drink itself was okay nothing too crazy I got a matcha I’ve had better but it was good. Definitely a one time *experience*. Service tho was great I can’t complain the barista got my order wrong and had no problem remaking my drink!

Amazing service from the cashier Zakira! My first time here and she was kind and patient in helping me decide what I wanted. The cafe is very clean and very cute inside. Great first time experience. When I’m back in Houston, I’ll definitely visit this location again!

I love La La Land and always order the Banana Cloud Latte. This location was very busy on the weekend, which I didn’t mind. Later while finishing my drink, I felt something come up and pulled it out, it was some type of a piece of plastic in it, which was surprising. This isn’t meant to put down the store, just sharing for awareness. I’ll still continue to be a customer and enjoy my Banana Cloud Lattes.

I’ve been several times and only wish I lived closer! The food is so yummy and the drinks are even better (especially their matcha)! Ive had Taryn as my barista several times and she’s always so helpful during our interactions. She goes above and beyond, taking her time to explain the menu items, giving feedback/recommendations, and double checking my customizations are correct, she really embodies the “kind” character of LaLaLand. I love wholesome ingredients and options for your food/drinks and the warm vibe of the place. I’ve had a great experience every time!

Such a cute spot with great vibes! I ordered the La La Matcha Latte and it was super smooth, creamy, and not overly sweet at all. The yellow truck setup is adorable and makes it such a fun place to take pictures. Staff was friendly and the atmosphere was chill and relaxing. Definitely a great place to stop by for matcha. For sure, I’ll be back!

Camille showed kindness when I needed it most! Definitely enjoyed their La La Latte drink. A very cool looking indoor setup but the only problem is foul smell from the restroom creeping all over the store (atleast when I visited the store) Outside of that the staff is very friendly and nice and welcoming. Is it overhyped and overpriced? maybeeeee yes but it’s good taste nonetheless. They had plenty of items to shop from as well. Definitely worth checking out the hype. I give a 4/5 rating. Plenty of free parking at MKT.

Coffee was perfect; ordered a cappuccino with hint of sugar free vanilla. The food was excellent; ordered an avocado toast with egg on top

I like La La Land but sometimes it feels a little expensive. Took a quick stop in to get a flat white after lunch to try and hold off that 1 o'clock feeling the inside is very Instagramable. We actually ended up sitting next to two girls and a guy filming a TikTok about their Matcha coffees. I'm shocked, but it really was the first time I saw influencers in the wild. La La Land is a nice coffee shop, but it's definitely not an every day go to. I know I started off this review saying it was expensive but today I felt like the price was reasonable based on the quality.

A cute coffee shop that's definitely worth visiting to see the inside of. Very clean and cute. I ordered my drink through the app and the experience was alright. To me, $8 for a chai latte that came half full and looked like straight milk seems a little overrated. Maybe I just didn't get the right thing but I won't be coming back. It was a good one time experience but paying for the location and cute cups isn't really worth it. Chai latte: 4/10- tasted like a generic chai latte. I guess ordering less ice means the drink comes half full. I'm not kidding when I say the cup looked like someone just poured some whole milk into it with nothing else. The barista was nice enough to add in a shot of espresso because I forgot to add that in when ordering online. Really the only saving grace there. I thought the chai would have some intense flavor but it was nothing special.

Beautiful outdoor space with great ambience at this La La Land location. However, the interior seemed a bit messy, the bathrooms ran out of paper towel, and overall the back counter seemed messy. Service was functional, and my drink was fairly quickly made. I ordered the iced lavender Matcha, it was OK, but nothing I would return for. The Matcha seemed to be a good quality; however the drink was a little too sweet. I may try a Matcha only drink next . They also seemed to have some interesting food items like the burrata toast, which I may try in future visits. This location is at MKT, which has plenty of free parking nearby.

I will take a La La Latte, if I could, every single day! They've got very tasty coffee that's worth trying and the food is actually pretty good. I would highly recommend any of their avocado toast options, particularly the Truffle Burrata Toast. It's a great place to take out of towners as it's got great outdoor seating during the good weather months! If you get a chance to steal the couch inside, it's also a vibe. There are great photo-op options both indoor and outdoors here. After your coffee, it's a great place to walk around as you can shop, get your nails done, have a proper meal at one of the neighboring restaurants or even get on the trail and walkover to another city centre like area. Highly recommend this place!

This coffee spot is cute and has plenty of indoor & outdoor seating. It has easy parking and is located in the MKT area so there's lots of cute shops and eats around. The staff were cool, and the inside is quite beautiful with a clean look. Great for those instagram-esque pictures. The coffee itself was good but not the best. I've tried better coffee at better price points but the vibe I got enjoying a coffee while sitting outdoors in the shade will definitely be bringing me back.

Stopped by on a Saturday late morning and the line was out the door. It moved decently quick and we waited maybe 15 minutes total from getting in line (10 people outside) to getting our drinks. The decor was cute and simple. They have holiday drinks and cups already. My regular size mocha ($6) was pretty good, sweet without having to add sugar! Would probably get again, but go on a weekday in hopes the line isn't as long, or order ahead for sure!

Love every drink I get from La La land! I also enjoy the chia seed pudding and fruit toast.

I think this place has a cute aesthetic going on for them both in and outside of the area ! This coffee shop seems like a good place to do some homework, study, hang out with friends and just to enjoy the ambiance. The music that they play throughout the coffee shop was great too! I ended up not getting any coffee because nothing on the menu seemed appealing to me and that kind of shocked me because I love coffee ! They also didn't have a chai or matcha which kind of was a bummer. I think they need to add just a little bit more to the menu and then possibly the rating will go up. The parking is shared with other businesses however, there's enough parking spots for anyone who wants to come here and also shop around the area!

Lala Land is such a modern coffee shop! They've got lots of merch that you can buy as well as coffee beans. Their food and coffee is delicious. They like is typically long but loved fast but it does take a good amount of time to get your food/drink after ordering. They have minor seating inside and some outside but not much. Not good for big groups

Cute, clean aesthetic. Got a regular latte and it tastes great! I also actually really like the cups they come in lol. The top has a tiny stopper and you can move it to another place on the lid so it's convenient to keep! The drink did start to spill out the back of the lid for some reason. It was overflowing? Idk how just had to readjust the lid. The vibe inside is cute. Seating area towards the back is a little more squished than the front. And plus there's a super cute truck outside!

So aesthetically pleasing but they also have great drinks!! I got "the perfect latte" and it lived up to the name. Very well crafted and not too sweet. Located in a plaza with many cute shops. Decent amount of parking in the lot.

They had such cute merchandise, and I'm actually regretting not buying a hat. I'll need to go back. The AC in this place was top-notch! It's such a great place to have a quick ice coffee while waiting for nearby restaurants waiting lists. I do feel like the layout is a little off in the space. It has this comfy couch, two large chairs, and a table at the front of the place where they're going for a minimalist vibe. But once you place your order, you must then cramp yourself with all the others waiting for their orders in a tiny corner. Which is right by the few tables they have. So while it's light and airy at the front. It's cramped and dark while waiting for your order. The coffee was great and we got some chia pudding to go. The staff was friendly and polite despite being so busy. They remained calm and cordial.

First time here, I ordered a large lala land latte. DELICIOUS!!!! I also ordered the chocolate chia pudding and a cinnamon roll. Everything was so good and fresh. I'm obsessed with how good that chia pudding was. I had never tasted this before. The place was super clean and there was plenty of seating available. My friend and I decided to sit outside and enjoy the warm weather. The cashier was so friendly and made the whole experience great. Oh my friend got a chai overnight oats and it was soooo good too! You have to stop by this place if you are in the area.

I love LaLaLand cafe and their drinks and food are always great. They have a covered parking garage and they will validate your parking. The parking is inconvenient when you are only stopping in the Montrose Collective for a coffee or matcha. I love the matcha strawberry fields and the banana chocolate chia seed pudding. I will say it a bit expensive but worth the aesthetic.

First time at La La Land and I can see why it's always busy. Super cute restaurant! I ordered one of the Fall drinks called The Logan and it was absolutely delicious! Tip: if the line is out the door, just order on your phone and it might be ready quicker than it would take to wait in line then wait for your drink to be made. Worked for me!

If you are in Houston.... I mean just go. The cutest cafe. I am a matcha girl and oh the selections. I loved every moment. The best matcha I have had so far. The location is great. It's in a complex where there are other stores, restaurants etc. Ambiance was nice and very clean. Oh and the line almost out the door. Well worth it though. I need this in Jersey. Sidebar they only accept card no cash

La La Land Cafe is a great atmosphere. I decided to come here on a Sunday and it was so popular. The door was nearly out the line but it moved quickly. I tend to get the same thing over and over again, but I tried something new today. I got the La La Land x LuLuLemon Chai Latte with two shots of espresso and the Burrata Avocado Toast. Both top tier, I need to try more of the menu but preferably on a different day. I was luckily able to grab a spot inside (because it's so hot ) , and I wrote this review and listened to a sermon. I highly recommend for the vibes and atmosphere.

She's chic, she's kind, she's addictive! Went to lala land for the first time and beelined to this location to see the infamous yellow truck. Whenever we arrived there was a decent amount of people here but the line moved fast. Service was good, coffee was great, but matcha lacked flavor. Overall, I would come again ! (Also the star of the show has to be the heart shaped straws and the sweet cream top)

What's 5-stars about La La Land Kind Cafe: + It's a coffee shop and cafe with NPO roots (La La Land Foundation) that offers paid internships specifically designed to help youth transition from foster care into adulthood. My heart... + The menu features a variety of flavored coffee drinks and flavored matcha! I had a lavender matcha. + It's a cutesy cafe with all sorts of sunshiney yellow decor and branding, indoor and outdoor seating, merch... This attracts *a lot* of patrons who opt to dine/drink-in, which is great for cafe culture. ...that being said. I was incredibly disappointed to see - despite attracting so many patrons who opt to enjoy their drinks at the cafe - ALL of their cups are to-go. It's a lot of plastic and paper cups (with plastic lids) in every direction. Every where you look. No mugs. And no recycling. Just trash bins filled with yellow plastic lids and clear plastic cups. Ugh... my heart. I hope they find a way to be less wasteful and "be kind" to the Earth and more environmentally sustainable. At the very least, if patrons don't order their drink to go, don't automatically snap a plastic lid on it. And offer recycling.

What a cute cafe! Was so excited to finally try this place after hearing so many great things. I ordered the purple rain latte with CBD and it was great! I wish there was more indoor seating and wi the a rush it gets pretty chaotic. Not really a place to study or work cause I only saw one outlet near the edge of the bench seating. Would definitely try again if I were just in the area

I think social media over hyped it a bit. I had the strawberry matcha latte. It was okay , pretty but once you put your own sugar and have to mix it well it's just brown. The aesthetics is definitely on point and you really can't beat their merch. Yes, it's a cute place to drink coffee, but the coffee itself is pretty basic in my opinion

I enjoyed a tasty upside down matcha latte on a busy Saturday afternoon. The MKT location is a great addition to the existing shops, with a cute interior, though as some have mentioned, limited seating inside. Outside of the social media hype/aesthetic, while there was a line, it moved fairly quickly. Initially my drink was not made correctly (a coffee latte vs. a matcha latte), but this was quickly remedied. Drinks are priced starting around $6, which seems to be the going rate these days at any local coffee shop. Some other pros of this place include the variety of drinks they offer, from more traditional coffee/matcha but also fun, aesthetic drinks with flavors like strawberry, vanilla, maple, and more. Their avocado toast plays perfectly into the millennial desire to choose avocados over housing, and there were some pastries for sale as well. Overall, I'd recommend this place to anyone in the area looking for a pick-me-up. Don't be intimidated by the long lines and give this place a shot!

Their coffee tastes great, and their food is delicious. I'm particularly fond of their avocado toast, hazelnut toast, and croissants. The cafe has cute merch, and the ambiance is cool both indoors and outdoors. During the weekdays, it's not too crowded, but on the weekends, it's a different story. The lines are long, and they seem to be very short-staffed. They really need to be better prepared for the weekend rush because waiting is not fun. There are two cashier areas, but only one is open. Additionally, seating is limited both indoors and outdoors, which can be a bit frustrating when it's busy. They need to manage the crowd better given the high volume of customers. On the positive side, the store is clean, and the parking is decent. Friendly staff! I previously had many good experiences here so I'm giving a four star review but they need to get it together.

Y'all, please turn the music down. It should be background noise, not the main character. And for the love of god, be better organized. Otherwise, I love the coffee!

The coffee was good. So was the MAAK bread was good but could have had fresh bananas. The ones on my bread had a little too much black and were mushy. The restroom was absolutely disgusting. I understand this location is super busy, but this restroom is beyond "a little dirty".

So I didn't make it past the threshold. There was a dog coming out and I was not with it. This was not a service dog. It was someone's regular dog they had with them. Dog friendly is not somewhere I like to get food from. But for those who love to dine and drink around animals you'll probably love it.

First time having the toasts and I was so happy. They don't look beautiful but they taste fantastic. They have too much going on to look perfect and thank god. Super tasty and cut in half.

The area the cafe is in is very posh, with a nice trail just a little ways away. Perfect place to go after a quick run! The cafe itself is so cute! Just do not go on the weekend because it will be busy! The line moved fast but it took awhile to get our coffee. Was it worth the wait though? At least for my drink, yes. I got the la la latte, and if I had known you could get a larger size, I would have. It was a balanced sweet with smooth espresso and a light dollop of froth on top. My boyfriend ordered the butterfly matcha latte and it just tasted like lightly sweetened milk. But if you're going for the instagram pics you won't be disappointed! I take long lines as a sign of good food/drink so at least for the coffee I'm gonna say that rings true here. I will definitely go back to try other drinks.

Cutest cafe ever! White and yellow colors. Great snack foods, lovely staff, super kind and patient for someone who had never been there and had questions. The matcha was PHENOMENAL I still crave it to this day!!! Such a great experience loved the location good parking and a beautiful place to be!!

Such an aesthetic worthy photo spot! N they have theeee best cinnamon rolls ever!!! I mean they r guuood!! Service was awesome and the long line moved quickly!

They are waaaay nicer here than at the westheimer location. But I don't understand why I came in before five other people and all of their drinks were made before mine and my ticket just sat off to the side until she decided to poor the foam.

I think it's so popular because of the aesthetics BUTTTTT it's not groundbreaking. I mean they blew Dallas away with their cute bright yellow branding and it's taking on the same reception here in Houston. I do love colorful theme and appreciate that they move fairly quickly. They cater to the masses. I was standing in line wondering if they have an online ordering system. I don't dislike their coffee or matchas but I never leave thinking WOW that was great. They're always *just* good if that makes sense They're the only coffee place here at MKT

This place is so popular! Had to wait in line but it went by pretty quickly. The selection of lattes, cold brews and matcha are astonishing. I ordered the strawberry fields matcha latte. It was delicious and I loved the hint of strawberry with my matcha, such a combination cloud. The place is quaint but spacious and service was quick. I love that they have merch like t-shirts, hats and coffee candles.

When I saw the cute cups with the sleeves, I just knew I had to try this place. We went on a Sunday around 11:00 am. The parking lot was crowded, so my Husband dropped me off. The line was long, but don't let that turn you around. It moves pretty quick! If there is one thing about this place that I love, it is the overall ambiance. When you first walk in, it looks fancy, not like your average coffee shop! There is plenty of seating and outside seating available as well. They also sell cute merch, such as hats and mugs! Everything on their menu looked so delicious, that I did not know what to get! I ended up ordering two drinks, the Cookies & Dream Latte and the Strawberry Matcha Latte. Both were delicious and the best that I've ever tasted! The Cookies & Dream Latte was heavenly! If you like Oreos and love mid-sweet drinks, this is for you! The espresso was very smooth and the drink itself was very creamy. The cold foam on the top is delicious with the cookie crumbles on top! The perfect amount of sweetness for an afternoon pick me up. The Strawberry Matcha Latte is a must have here! It does not taste artificial at all, and tastes like fresh picked strawberries with the perfect amount of creamy sweetness. I can't wait to come back again!

La La Land is ALWAYS packed! I went here for the first time on a Saturday afternoon to meet a friend for tea. Thankfully, the line moved quick and the service is great. I got an iced matcha latte and we sat outside. There's a good amount of outdoor seating right outside the cafe and tons of places to sit just around MKT in general, so it's pretty dog-friendly. Not too much of a seating area inside though, just a few seats right by the register. Parking can be a little tough on the weekends at MKT, but there is additional free parking right across the street. The iced matcha was great. Good balance of flavor and not too sweet. Their matcha menu alone is pretty extensive and I'm looking forward to making my way through it!

i didn't get to try the food sadly but the service was kinda fast. all the drinks i got were yummy except the matcha lavender, when its mixed it tasted like candle wax so i don't recommend. it's a cute aesthetic place and they sell a lot of merch for no reason but other that yummy coffee

Came on a Wednesday morning, place was packed, no where to sit. The couch in the middle is so dirty, decided to dodge that. They do have some seating outdoors but it was wet from the rain. I ordered a matcha lavender bloom with almond milk and a lala avocado toast. Both were mediocre but especially the toast. Just tasted like avocado with some flakes, not impressed and not worth $9. The latte was also just okay, cannot really set it apart from others I have tried.

Love La La Land. Houston staple coffee shop. The one in MKT is perfectly located and I've regulared here a lot lately. My go to is the Strawberry Fields & a strawberry danish (if you can catch the theme). Both are amazing! Service is nice but it's always super cold. I always try to remind myself to bring a sweater.

Environment is clean and aesthetic but I feel that if you advertise a type of coffee then you should follow through with presentation and taste. We ordered the cookies and cream and the upside down latte and both received a plain latte. Makes me wish we just stuck to our casual coffee place .

My sister and I got the almond croissants with some drinks, but the croissants are good! It's hard to mess up almond croissants too, but it was delicious and warm! There's a lot of options to alter your drinks and they have a CBD shot available too! I'm definitely going to try the other drinks offered, but from what I got and my sister got... Obsessed lol.. The service was quite fast and efficient, the openers were up and ready for the day as there were quite a few people in line and orders. There were only 3 people working behind the coffee bar, but they were fast and precise! The ambiance of the coffee shop is real cute and dainty! There's more seats outside the cafe, but there's also seats inside along the wall! The seats are just very small in general. There are like 2 couches I think? There's more small seats than there is large ample space seats so I'm not sure if this would be a good place to study. There's merch inside the shop that is really cute! I love the hats so much, but the clothing is also super comfortable!! I'm really happy to have experienced this coffee shop as I see their social media content on TikTok and I have a whole folder dedicated to it lol. If you haven't checked it out, you should!! It's very wholesome and makes me believe in humanity again and I love the messages they share!! Definitely going to come back again!

I had been hearing about this place for a while and decided to swing by for my birthday and it lived up to the praise. The drinks were so yummy and the people working were very nice. I loved the different phrases on the sleeves and coincidentally we all got a sleeve that matched our personalities! Can't wait to come again

Second visit to a la la land kind cafe! I forgot to document the first time and I didn't like my drink that much lol. (I think I got the Buddha latte with cinnamon) This location is much easier to park near and has lots of seating outside! Staff was kind, service was quick, it looked clean-I did not use the bathroom so idk about that. I came to try the new love month flavors. We all got different things and different very cute sleeves. I got the strawberry chai. As someone who loooves masala chai and makes it at home regularly it was uhh not great. The strawberry foam was sweet but didn't taste like strawberry really. The other drinks were the La La strawberry shortcake matcha and a purple rain latte. I was told the purple rain was good while the matcha wasn't very strong. Additionally we added the cbd for fun but idk what it's supposed to do I didn't notice anything lol.

It was very busy, but the line was moving pretty fast. Overall, enjoyed my time and iced matcha latte here!

This new coffee place is sooo good!! Matcha coffee and breakfast! The avocado toast are great the place is cute WiFi cute couches

I've come to LaLa Land twice. The first time I ordered a hot Matcha Latte and the second time I ordered an iced Purple Rain Matcha Latte. I really enjoy a good Matcha drink and it's incredible to see the wide selection of Matcha options on the menu. The drinks themselves were good. They both had a balanced matcha flavor and were not too sweet. I preferred the iced Purple Rain partly because I wanted the Matcha Latte iced but I received it hot. I didn't want to fuss about it and it was still good. I did notice that the first time I went, the person working the register seemed a little unsure about the drinks when I asked a question about one. The second time I went the person seemed a lot more knowledgeable and comfortable talking about the drinks. The ambiance is cool. It's not really my vibe but it's still a nice atmosphere. I haven't really hung around after purchasing my drinks but people seemed to be enjoying themselves. There is seating available outdoors if the limited seating inside fills up too quickly. It's located in the MKT, so you can walk around and shop or go sit in various different areas as well. Overall, I like the drinks and will return to try some more matcha combinations. It's more of a grab and go type of experience for me but I would recommend visiting to grab a drink and check it out for yourself.

Such an aesthetically pleasing coffee shop! Huge space and tons of sunlight. They have lots of coffee options, specifically lots of matcha options as well as food. I only tried the la la latte since it was my first time, expecting it to be basic but it was very good. The coffee flavor really popped and the foam was my favorite. Hoping to come back and try a different drink and food as well! Service was quick and friendly. I like that they have sturdy cups lol.

Love this place always make a mission to stop in when traveling in an area that have this. I get different drinks specialty, latte, and matcha and the classic avocado toast which is so good

Service is slow, and they got our orders wrong. Ordered an iced latte, a lavender honey matcha latte, and a double espresso. The espresso came out single, and they gave me a regular latte instead of the matcha. This place is where you can go and take pictures in their cute aesthetic cups but taste, price, and service are not worth the hype.
