Cafe de Olla & the horchata iced latte are delicious. They have a variety of pastries. I got 4 different ones, and they were all good. It's a pink vive coffee shop, pink everything inside. I also loved that they have many different options for purchase on mugs, cups, tumblers, and other items. They were all very pretty & cute.

We were fortunate to host a private event at Lilly's beautiful, newly expanded café. Lilly and her team were extremely kind in preparing the very cute space, providing coffees, pastries, and delicious cakes for our special day. The coffee is great and we really enjoyed the chocolate mousse cake. I highly recommend this gem of a coffee shop and will be back to try their new gelato!

This bakery has to be the pinkest store I have ever been to. Putting that to the side I say the service is very welcoming and presentation is second to non. As small as the location is, it has a lot to offer. Now with that being said. I didn't find the bake goods to my liking, I don't know if the people in that region prefer their style over regular baked goods, for ex. I ordered a coffee cake and a tiramisu 'cake' - so what I got was cakes that had tiramisu flavors, sort of. and a cake that had a coffee taste. And I also ordered a vanilla cone, but the filling was more of a butter cream type than like an eclair filling type. So it's not fair to judge on my bias. But I will compare it to other details from other small cafes. I found that the baked goods tasted like they were baked from the night before and not in the morning like some others do. It's not stale but it's not as appealing as other cafe offerings. I do want to note that this location does offer a certain collection of KETO treats which is hard to find in a bakery type location, so major props for that.

I came this weekend to try it out, and now I’m obsessed! Their coffee is absolutely delicious. My husband says their cold brew is the best he’s ever had—it’s made exactly the way he likes it. As for me, I’m in love with the Horchata Latte! It’s hands down my favorite out of the three drinks I’ve tried so far. We love this place so much and will definitely be regulars from now on!

On my way to an appointment in East Los Angeles, I decided to stop by Lilly’s Cafe after seeing it listed on Yelp. I figured it would be a quick stop for a couple of lattes and some dessert. The reviews were mixed, but I thought, How bad could a latte be? Unfortunately, I found out the hard way. At first glance, the cafe looked very inviting — a charming gold logo in elegant script, with soft white and pink interiors. It stood out as a little gem among otherwise plain storefronts. The presentation suggested that Lilly’s Cafe offered high-quality products, albeit at a slightly higher price. I ordered two lattes, a carrot cake, and a cheesecake, expecting at least a decent experience for the nearly $30 total. What a mistake. Once I was back on the road and took a sip of my latte, I was stunned — it was weak, watery, and completely flavourless. There was none of the rich espresso depth or velvety creaminess you expect from a well-made latte. It tasted like reused coffee grounds diluted with milk. I actually threw it away, and my client did the same. Hoping the desserts might redeem the visit, I tried the cheesecake next. Another disappointment. It was flat, overly sweet, and missing the tangy richness of proper cream cheese. The topping had a strange, mealy texture that peeled off as if it had been glued on. The Graham cracker crust was soft, bland, and barely there. Honestly, you could find a better slice at a grocery store bakery. The carrot cake fared no better — dry, grainy, and with an odd chemical aftertaste. It was nearly inedible. Spending $30 on this experience felt like a complete waste of money. I would have been better off grabbing coffee and snacks at a gas station. After rereading other reviews, it’s clear that the owners haven’t taken any feedback seriously, which explains the consistently poor quality. If they don’t care about what they serve, why should you care to support them? Save your money and steer clear of Lilly’s Cafe.

They had a nice selection of keto based items, including donuts and banana bread. I opted for the keto chocolate donut and a cappuccino. Friendly atmosphere and good vibes. Will definitely return.

Used to like this place but the lady that puts her hair in a bun had such a rude attitude. OMG!!!! HAIR IN CROISSANT— When we got home my mother in law was eating her croissant and found a long black hair in it in the middle of chewing 🤮🤮🤮

What a great way to start of a morning. We found this place because it’s the nearest to the ball park. We took one step into this business and fell in love with how well put together it was. The pastries inmediato just caught your eye. The selection of coffee definitely wasn’t lacking. I had the Mazapán Latte and boy is it delicious. The owner Lilly was super nice and helpful. She also went as far as to recommend a lunch place. I love it when local supports local. If you are near by you have to visit!!! Oops I forgot to mention we also got a chamoy candy apple.🍎 🤤
