Goodfellows Coffee — Restaurant in Cypress

I was pleasantly surprised by my first visit here! I had a craving for a matcha drink and was nearby, so I decided to give this place a try. The cashier gave me a helpful explanation of how their matcha is prepared: it comes in a 16 oz cup with a layered presentation. At the bottom, they have a fresh strawberry puree, followed by milk (I opted for oat milk, but almond milk is also available), and then matcha is poured on top. It's a unique drink that you can enjoy as is, with the layers intact, or mix everything together—either way, it’s delicious! The drink is not overly sweet, but it has just the right amount of sweetness without being too overpowering. It’s perfect for those who enjoy matcha but prefer something a little lighter and less intense than a traditional matcha drink.

The shop also has a great selection of pastries, including some gluten-free options, though they are not completely celiac-safe due to the risk of cross-contamination. They also offer breakfast sandwiches during certain hours. I really appreciated the excellent customer service; the staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and offered helpful drink suggestions.

The space itself was spotless, both inside and outside, and even the restroom was tidy and well-maintained. However, keep in mind that the restroom is a unisex single stall, so only accommodates one person at a time. Overall, I had a great experience here and will...

Following my new year's resolution and am supporting more local small coffee shops! I feel good!

Husband and I stopped in last Sunday morning for our latte break. It is our first time here and we love it!

In order to gauge our complex taste buds, we ordered the Latte, with no special instruction. They source their beans from Dark Horse Coffee Roasters. Really good and smooth. Taste is mild yet strong enough for me. I like tasting a good shot of espresso on my latte. The milk does not overpower the espresso. Just the right amount of milk to espresso ratio.

We also shared a blueberry scone.

Cute seating area with nice leather chairs and coffee tables. (even though I like the cushiony love seats and pillow-stacked sofas in some other coffee houses, leather is the way to go! As it is much easier to clean)

They stream very chill music. Goes well with our lattes and conversations. Check out the artist Little Dragon if you are curious.

Service is super friendly. Looks like they all get along behind the counter smile

They also have a cooler with additional beverages in case you need a non-coffee drink. And baked goods such as croissants and muffins are also available.

This coffeehouse will for sure be in our rotation of latte...

I got here as they opened and was the first customer. They were already smiling and cheerful. The environment is very laid back. I asked for a recommendation with the criteria being caffeine and cold. She recommended the cookie butter latte, and I got it in a large. The drink was smooth, which is very important to me. It was delicious and not overly sweet. Perfect amount of coffee:ice ratio. The baristas chatted with me a little while I waited for my drink and allowed me to take pictures at my leisure. There are multiple pastry items for sale, including vegan donuts, which I thought was a nice touch. Non-coffee bottled beverages can also be purchased. The seating was clean and ready for use. Will definitely be returning and will continue to ask for...
