Coffee & Cruise

Absolutely love their coffee it is the best in town!

What happened to these guys? They closed months ago and put up a sign that says water main break. Every time I drive by they’re always closed. Really makes me sad because they did have the best coffee in town.

Coffee is great and id love to get more except I can never seem to catch them when they’re open especially in the mornings and sometimes even in the afternoons. Minus a star for maintaining inconsistent hours.

Simply the coffee here is excellent. My daughter loves this place. She has traveled around the world and every time she visits me she wants to come here. The espresso con pana is what she orders. I order straight espresso and the roast is better than anywhere else I have tried. Some of the baked goods are tasty and fresh as well.

Strong, rich, creamy… Vanilla Latte. I was trying to order a Vanilla Pony but he said I couldn’t do that because the Pony is specifically coffee with 2 shots of espresso (Black Eye: Starbucks equivalent). I wanted a Vanilla Latte but THIS morning (EVERY morning), I needed a good kick. I was prepared to add a shot but since I’ve never been here before, I decided to ask ‘How many shots comes in a large?’ I’m glad I asked because he said ‘3.’ This standard drink (no extras ordered) is great.
It’s drive-​thru ONLY. The service was friendly, welcoming, punctual, and cheaper than most.
*Power Cruiser: coffee w/​1 shot of espresso
*Pony: coffee w/​2 shots of espresso
*Race Horse: coffee w/​3 shots of espresso

I LOVE coffee & cruise!
The most delicious iced mocha I’ve ever had! & I’ve tried them all. Plus you don’t have to get out of your car & it’s less expensive than everywhere else plus it’s fast plus the staff is very friendly. But wait there’s more… every time I get my coffee from here before I go to work, I have the best day ever…

Forget Starbucks, Coffee Bean, and any Drive-​thru Coffee place. I think I might have found the best one in La Crescenta…
**The only negative of this establishment like Jessica Y. so eloquently illustrated in her review is that if there is a long line, you’re gonna be screwed. Service is a bit slow in that department. However, if you come on a good day you’ll be in luck and find that your drinks will be refreshing and snacks to be yummy.
*Bran muffins, ice coffee drinks, and spiced apple cider… LOVE IT. Also, the drinks are not heavily doused in sugar like Starbucks and the muffins aren’t too sugary as well.
Proud to support the local establishments!

A drive thru solely dedicated to c-​o-​f-​f-​e-​e.
I ordered an iced double latte (no sugar please!) and it was pretty tasty. Much much better than going to a Starbucks drive thru.
They also have freshly baked items every morning
Also ordered a blueberry loaf. It was warm, cinnamon-​y, light and not oily.
This is a really good alternative to Starbucks or Coffee bean.
My only gripe is that since it’s drive thru-​only, one car holds up the line, the whole line takes forever.
Oh, that’s why it’s called coffee & snooze… I mean, cruise.

You know those days when you roll out of bed and don’t want to get dressed but you do want some coffee but you ran out of milk and that caffeine headache is pounding and demanding that you take action but you still don’t want to get dressed to go to the store to pick up some milk because then you really do have to get dressed or get stared at in your tiger striped pajama pants and then you’ll just have to come home and make the coffee and it will take soooooo long plus you ran out of aspirin too but what you really need is coffee, coffee, coffee?
Solution: throw a coat over your PJ’s and head on over to pick up some of the very best coffee around, served in the privacy of your very own car.
Consistently excellent, fresh and yummy pastries, supporting the American tradition of drive-​through. Just do it.

It’s local and the drive-​thru never seems to be crowded. I’ve had a few of their lattes and they are always way too sweet. I keep wanting to like this place, but haven’t found a great tasting coffee drink for my taste yet.

Came across this place when all of us were too lazy to get out. Found this location on Unilocal and never knew it was located near La Crescenta. I’m up for supporting local small mom n pop shops and Coffee & Cruise is one of those places that should never run out of business. I’m not picky when it comes to food or people; however, when it comes to coffee oh they better not mess it up. The ghetto side comes out of me. For. Real. I can taste the difference if the coffee is too dark or too light and even when coffee is been too out for long. After visiting couple times here wow their coffee tastes so authentic and fresh. You know how Starbucks, Coffee Bean, and even McDonald’s are always either a hit or miss. Well this place is always a hit. The barista or the workers here have skills and know how to work the expresso machine.

Oh how I wish this little gem location were open early enough for me to stop by daily. This week we got coffees and a nice warm chocolate coffee cake Mmmmmmmmmm
Lovely day when we can cruise through at Coffee Cruise.

Good coffee… service great… always convenient. i highly recomend this place.

Hands down one of the best cups of coffee I’ve ever. They’re putting the big chains to shame.

I have driven by this place for years without ever stopping in, but I finally decided to try it while out running errands with my toddler, when I didn’t feel like making another full stop just to get some caffeine. And, my goodness, I should have decided to try it a long time ago! I ordered a vanilla chai latte with rice milk, and it was hands-​down the tastiest, creamiest one I’ve ever had. A big bonus is the fact that they offer milk alternatives (rice milk, almond milk) not usually available at Starbucks or other chain coffee houses, which is great for those of us trying to avoid dairy and soy. The drive-​through lured me in, but the quality of the drinks will keep me coming back. A must for a busy mom or anyone else on the go! :)

Yeah, you could probably get more gourmet coffee drinks, smoothies and baked goods at other neighborhood spots. But can you get them via a drive-​thru window? For that alone, this Mom gives it 4-​Stars.
(Plus, the guy who works there is super nice…)

My all time favorite place to get coffee!!! This places blows Coffee bean and Starbucks out of the water! Their coffee is to delicious and the service is great! Staff is always friendly, and the prices are great and fair too! .and to the previous reviews they do take credit cards now. so makes this place even more convenient! :)

A further drive than Coffee Bean or Starbucks, but remarkably better. It’s about the same price as those too as well. I’ve only had their Kona mocha iced coffee, but every time it’s been consistently good.
The best part? They have a drive-​thru and that makes all the difference when you’re lugging an 8 week old baby around.

I love this place! I will drive the extra mile and a half for their drive through. It’s the only coffee place around that does have a drive through, which is very convenient when you have two kids in the back seat. Their coffee is way better than Starbucks and Coffee Bean. I recommend the Power cruiser with cream.

Just to clarify this business DOES accept credit cards but there’s a 45 cent charge. Just saying.
