Yall don’t sleep on this café! I’ve enjoyed everything so far, whether I stop by for a light meal or just for coffee. The lattes are unique (options like banana and ube) and not too sweet, which is the ultimate Asian compliment :3 They also recently added the viral Dubai chewy cookie and oh my gosh, that thing is DIVINE. I tried getting the Dubai chewy cookie from the Mega Mart in PA, and it doesn’t even compare. Ugh I’m drooling as I’m writing this review, might need to make another trip to Little Late Bird on my way to work 😮💨
Pictured is a medium iced banana latte and a salted cheese cream jasmine green tea, no boba. Little Late Bird is in a bit of a cafe "desert". It's the only cafe within walking distance from our home, and I couldn't ask for a better one. Their menu has a broad assortment of unique items; I can go there for breakfast, lunch, or an early dinner and have something fulfilling. Their drinks are great. I usually ask for half or quarter sweetness in drinks from other cafes, but these drinks have a nice subtle sweetness without any modifications. We watched the ducks in the pond just outside the cafe while we drank. Can't wait to come back!
What a cute little spot! It’s tucked away by some business buildings but has a cute dog friendly patio overlooking a small pond. And has yummy drink options with Korean food!
Recommended. Nice atmosphere. Good service. Wheelchair and kid friendly. There are vegetarian choices that are clearly labeled.
They have the Dubai chocolate chewy cookie! I came here specifically for that - thought it was a nice treat for pre-valentines day. ($7 each). They have a nice selection of sandwiches and other Hawaiian / Korean items. I ordered the loco moco to try as well. Prices for food is reasonable.
super happy to have this cafe nearby! dropped by on a weekday morning to get a coffee – tried the banana latte with oat milk. the banana milk was quite sweet (as it always is) but the espresso’s bitterness was a good balance, and the $6 total felt v reasonable!! there were quite a few tables that looked good for working, so i’ll have to return to try other menu items and spend some more time in the cafe.
Just tried their dirty chai and it’s simple but has a lot of flavor. I truly recommend, it’s not too sweet but sweet enough for people who love plain coffee. This place has such a cool vibe and very calming every time I come in. Highly recommend if your close by.
Great spot for a tasty turkey avocado on sourdough bread sandwich and the Ube Uni scone was the best tasting I have ever had yummy! The bubble mango milk tea was good just not a fan of the jelly’s would rather have mango bobas way better
amazing!! this is my favorite go-to cafe spot. lattes were amazing and have natural flavors, and the spam rice bowl was flavorful and enjoyable. their bulgogi bibimbap was so good i had to order another one after — everything tasted fabulous and the croffles are amazing to share with. kimchi fried rice was great for someone with low spice tolerance. 10/10 atmospheres and service!
This cafe is such a little gem on the first floor of a beautiful office building. You can order drinks/food and enjoy them outdoor on the steps by the water and trees or spend the day working inside of the cafe. Indoor and outdoor seating. Plenty of room and tables to work and study. No need to break up your work time because they serve hot meals and there is such a beautiful space right outside to get fresh air.
