Smoking Tiger Bread Factory

IMO best location. I’ve been to the one in Buena Park and this one is much much better. Their pastries remind me of the ones I had in Korea and definitely hit the spot every time 👌 I actually haven’t tried a pastry I haven’t liked so far and I’ve tried tons. Lots of seats to come study or for a quick break during lunch. As you can see, my favorite is their strawberry matcha latte 🥰 SO good!
Sad to know that they discontinued their London fog as that was also one of my favs.
Planning to keep coming here for a long long time as long as the quality stays the same.
Lastly, can’t have a good coffee without a good service and I can say that all the staff here is superb friendly and helpful so you’ll feel right at home!

Great location, good customer service, restrooms inside. Seating/eating areas were dirty and more cable plugs would help. We purchased an 1 iced latte, 1 hot latte with oatmilk and an almond croissant ~$17.50. Total experience 6.5/10

I stopped at this Korean influenced coffee shop on my way between LA and the court in Westminster. Obviously the name is a little...uh...unusual but when you walk in its clearly a coffee shop with food. Big interior with plenty of space to sit. Eclectic, Korean influenced drink menu. My cappuccino was very good. Some exotic Korean pastries, a sausage embedded croissant(pictured) and like savory cheese buns? I would need to be in a mood for one of those. Instead I got an almond croissant, which looked pretty standard but turned out to be quite delicious. Like unexpectedly delicious. It was empty at 8 am, hopefully they get a student crowd at some point?

This Korean Coffee Shop is relatively new. It has unique and original drinks, like the Mugwort Latte and Kho Latte, and the classics, like a Latte and Chai. They have almond and oat milk as well as one vegan pastry. With the amount of natural light and tables available, it’s perfect for studying or working.

Creative drinks selection!!
There were many pastries to choose from if you need a snack while studying or working. I got a banana matcha and my friend got the hojicha latte and they were both very good. Lots of indoor and outdoor tables. Staff were friendly. I enjoyed my experience here and would come back.

Ive been to the original location in Buena Park and fell in love with the Banana Coffee, which this branch does NOT have. :<

I did get an iced Raspberry Mocha Latte (which was surprising! Mocha forward flavor but then it punches you with a strong raspberry flavor). I would get it again because it surprised me well.

Pineapple Xpress was pretty good, too. Strong pineapple flavor with a jasmine (or something floral) tea base. It was refreshing and tasted sweet enough.

Blueberry Matcha with almond milk was okay. The almond milk did muddle the flavor of both matcha and blueberry. I tried the blueberry matcha with regular whole milk in the Buena Park which was amazing. I would suggest that if youre not lactose, get the original with no customizations.

Ive yet to try their bread, but Ive always gone for the coffee and tea.

Used too good to go app to order a surprise bag from here. I ate one of the small pastries on the way to work after picking it up. I'm very impressed. $5.99 wasn't bad for what I got. Will definitely go back to try the fresh pastries. I recommend the app as well if you want to save and live this place.

Love the cream cheese salt bread and the scone. They have the mochi filling in the scone 🫶🏻
Very nice ambience too to work or study.

It was clean, quiet, and a pleasant atmosphere.
However, I was disappointed that the bread I wanted was sold out early and they would not make it again.
The bread was mochi pie.

Can’t say enough good things about their espresso tonic. This cafe definitely understands coffee and does it well. The coffee and bread paring is amazing as well, highly recommend salt bread (toasted!!!) with Tiger latte.

Plenty of parking, plenty of seating and decent outlet options. The bread and seating goes quick so don’t wait too late into the day if you are looking to study.

Pastries are bland, borderline tasteless. Still cold after toasting.

Photogenic pastries, creative drinks, friendly staff, but that's not what a bakery is for. Especially when each bread is $7+

Overpriced for what you get. $6 for a croissant and it's not even that great. Just go to Porto's for a croissant that's 10x better and a third of the price.

Excellent espresso (with sparkling water at no charge.) Friendly and tentative cashier with a nice shop layout. All and all is a star above “Starbuck” or most coffee shops in these areas. My noon visit on a sunny Saturday and the store was packed full with college students.

The experience fall short because there was no room. I am forced to quickly taste my coffee at the prepping counter☹️😞☹️and take it to go. The owner should consider adding shades to the tables outside.

Came here with my husband. Got the Chocolate creme crossiant. It was ok. Wish they would warm it up. I also enjoy matcha strawberry and saw they have it here so I had to try. Not so very matcha. Just strawberry pretty much. I like mine to taste like matcha drink with a hint of strawberry. Mecca Matcha which is around there has great matcha strawberry drink. My husband got this Earthy Chocolate drink which was pretty good. Definitely recommend if you like chocolate and Earthy flavors.

Thought matcha scone was mid, then I took another bite and it had mochi in it. Top tier. Earl Grey scone was also very good. The Earl Gray spread (sauce?) Was so good. And the strawberry matcha was also very good.

Definitely going back to try the rest of the stuff.

Talk about being treat heaven!!! You walk in to Smoking Tiger and you have to get a tray so you can put all the yummy baked goodies you spot in the cases. This place has a nice mix of savory and sweet choices and has had the liquid caffeine to match it when you get to the register. Great place for you to go with a friend on an ultra cheat day! You will not be disappointed. There is a pastry there with your name on it!

Needs some improvement, drink cups are made up carton cups that sags over time... they need to package better their drinks. Drinks lack flavor. The bakery or cookies aren't that special or tasty either. They taste like cardboard box tbh.

This place has a really nice vibe with cool and relaxing music. Very clean with friendly staff too. My only complaint is they have a cashless payment system only. Not a huge deal, but I personally still like to pay cash for most of my in person shopping. Just something to be aware of before you visit here.
