Coffee A LA Mode

Hello! Trying to reach the owner. Been trying to call the phone number. Please contact me when you have a chance?! Thanks!

This place is right around the corner from my salon (Salon Sessions) so I got an almond milk or soy milk (I forget) latte before my hair appt. I’m really happy when places have non diary alternatives. This latte was not the best I’ve ever had but good, and I’ll get it again when I have a hair appt.

This is a great little café. They have plenty of patio chairs and some tables inside as well as bar stools. The matcha green tea is amazing (and I’m not a coffee person).
The cashier/​barista Jessica is amazing. She’s always extremely friendly and helpful.

What a great way to start 2016! My boyfriend and I are in town for the Rose Parade and came across this cute Lil coffee shop. The gal at the register was super sweet. I ordered a vanilla latte and got this cute Lil bear on it. I only wish it was warmer so I could grab a scoop of ice cream. We did try a sample of the guiness coffee and the Pandan Honey Almond Roca… yummo!!! We might have to pass by after the game when it gets warmer and grab some ice cream.

Hanging out in Pasadena, I was craving an affogato. I’ve tried most in the area, but randomly came across this place on my way to another and decided to check it out. I’m surprised this place did not show up in my Unilocal search for one, it should have!
First off, cash only! :/​Okay fine… but 2 affogatos were like 11 bucks! That’s a bit expensive. But it comes with 2 scoops of ice cream, so maybe that is somewhat okay. They have different gelato flavors you can pick from, probably around 10 – 12 flavors. However, a lot of them were fruity, which would probably be kind of gross with espresso… so I went with good old vanilla bean. The gelato itself was delicious. The espresso alone was extremely sour! Also it wasn’t warm at all, so my gelato barely melted into the sour espresso, and lacked that hot/​cold texture.
The presentation was really nice, in a cute martini glass are 2 scoops of ice cream and some dark espresso topped with a mint leaf. Also located in a nice, shaded corner with plenty of outdoor seating. Good atmosphere and location, but I probably wouldn’t recommend this place for an affogato fix. They have other caffeine drinks which are probably okay, and the gelato itself was good!

The worst!!! Very limited days (weekend only) and very limited hours (what coffee shop waits until 9am to open), and then only takes cash. They’re clearly not trying to develop a customer base. I’ve heard others in the neighborhood speculate it just be a money laundering operation.

They are always closed! Something weird is going on here.
At first they were open something like four days a week from 11am to 6 pm. Then it was completely random. Now, I haven’t seen their doors open for a couple weeks straight.
My friends and I joke that this is just a money laundering front because they have only ever accepted cash, the owner is always MIA, and they never really sell anything (because they are closed 85% of the year!!)!
Definitely don’t go visit, even if they have hours posted, they will be closed!!! I’ve made numerous trips and had numerous disappointments in order to get to the point of recommending this!

This place is super cute and a great place to have some unique ice cream flavors and get some work done! My favorite is the brown bread which is like a vanilla flavor but if your feeling a bit adventurous, the blackberry jasmine is a showstopper! They even started rotating in taro aka ube which is great for a little filipina girl like me! The baristas are all extremely sweet also. I will definitely be back to try some of the cool sodas they have in their fridge too!

I’m only taking one star off because they never have regular hours :(But when they are open… This place has the best staff and ice cream! I forgot the name of the girl who always helps out me and my husband when we go in on the weekends, but she is so nice and makes us feel very welcome! I think because she makes us feel like regulars at this place. We keep coming lol They offer ice cream from the famous «Scoops» in LA and offer samples to try before you make your decision! I haven’t tried the coffee yet, but maybe once they get regular hours. This would be my go too morning coffee spot :)

I hear they get their ice cream from Scoops. And if you’ve ever been to scoops you know. But now that I don’t have to drive out there and still get my blackberry jasmine fix during this excessive heat warning? I’m all in!
Pastries are ok but I prefer the ice cream. There are other ice cream shops in the area that I like but this place has some exotic flavors. The parking is also convenient.

Coffee is great. Love me some La Mill coffee.
Ice cream is good too. Had a great time with my nieces and nephews here, the KIDS love this place.
Décor is trendy and laid back.
Definitely coming back again soon.

Hey, if the coffee and ice cream isn’t enough to get you here, I have something else for you. The man-​candy employee Stan is all the caffeine your eyes need. You’ll get hooked.

For having just opened, this is a clever coffee shop.
I love the name. Two of my favorite things, coffee and ice cream/​Gelato on the side. I should’ve had a hot chocolate with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, like a float.
Next time. I’ll be back!

I went here on their grand opening, they had no ice cream! I work close by and I haven’t seen them open since. It’s a shame, because it looks like they have an awesome selection of drinks judging by their fridge which is visible from the window. Also – it’s cash only! :(

Who knows? its never open!

Great service! So friendly! Fantastic Scoops ice cream and Lamill coffee is a great addition to the area! Great refrigerated drink choices, too, such as real ginger soda! Stop in and check it out! So gals that it is more than just a typical spot to get a treat, but really has quality offerings!

You’d think from the name of the place that they’d have SOMETHING a la mode — such as, say, pie. But no — they only have coffee and ice cream. Fine. And their flavors are intriguing — green tea honey, caramel brownie, chocolate port, etc. And their servers are really, really nice. But the ice cream is all bland — the only one with any flavor at all was the brown bread — and the texture was abysmal, with chunks of ice in several flavors, as if it had frozen and re-​melted. If they only have two things in the store and one of them is worse than Baskin-​Robbins, they need to either add more food offerings, or to check out the great new creameries in the area and try to up their game with more flavor and better consistency.

Been here twice during the day and both times closed. I’m here right now at 3:30 on a Wednesday and the doors are locked and the phone number listed on Unilocal says nothing about this place. Adiós.

Found this place on my way home. Great coffee v smooth. We ordered mocha and they made coffee art by Erika The mocha is made with with actual Belgium chocolate not the powder or syrup.
