Nordstrom Ebar Artisan Coffee — Restaurant in Cerritos

Time to mozy on up to the Ebar

Shopping at the mall takes a lot energy. The walking, the perusing of merchandise, the sampling of food - even a linedancing cardio freak like me needs a pick me up now & then. Reluctant to patronize Starbucks and The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf yet again, I decided to finally give Nordstrom's Ebar a go.

I've become a big fan of nitro cold brew, as I like all things bubbly. Perturbed that Ebar didn't have any nitro drinks, Ebar does sell sparkling cold brew. Interest piqued, I glanced over what the sparkling options were, and decided what to order.

Sparkling coconut cold brew The "sparkling" comes from club soda. While not bad, Nordstrom Ebar's sparkling coconut cold brew was simply fine. Lacking punch, I would declare. Not fruit punch, but the bitter notes of coffee I expect with a good cup of Java. While in no way, shape or form a reasonable facsimile of nitro cold brew, the beverage did give me an afternoon boost and quenched my thirst.

Service was good. The drinks kept coming & I soon had my sparkling coconut cold brew in no time. I asked for ice on the side, and was given the brew with ice. I informed the barista of the error, and she quickly dumped the mistake drink & made me a new one.

Not a particular fan of Ebar's sparkling cold brew, I still believe they provide a good café option when tired of the standby franchise options. I may have a more favorable opinion if, instead, I go for their more popular honey almond lattes or Mexican...

Beware!!! of the vultures demonic energies when asking for iced water by itself!!! Go to starbucks instead where they have more humanized personalities. You don't want that demonic energy lurking after your visit.

Yes yes!!! The reviews below on demonic energies when asking for iced water is correct. Not sure if these blue collar workers are on commission per drink.

1st when I ordered food it wasn't a problem, however these gals need to review positive energy like starbucks batista. At least 1 slim young gal was the Only one with humanize upbeat personalities

2nd when I got thirsty&asked for iced water, they had demonic energies& kept making the drinks of others after me in line. As I saw that, I reminded them of the iced water. The gal didn't look at me& pointed her finger for the other gal to do it. Then the other gal filled it...

I tend to go to the Ebar at Nordstrom's on occasion when I find myself visiting there, and I am especially fond of their strawberry banana smoothie. However, instead of improving their products or at least maintaining the same level of quality, it seems to have declined considerably. The smoothie felt rather off when I tasted it since it tasted different in comparison to past visits here. I also bought a cookie to accompany the smoothie, and while it did not meet my expectations, I cannot consider it to be as disappointing as what I was expecting from the smoothie since I usually just get a drink from the Ebar. Overall though, I can't say that I was pleased with my visit here, although the one redeeming factor of my visit was that the service was...
