Cream & Sugar Cafe

The inspiration

Cream & Sugar Cafe opened at the beginning of June 2013, in the Stater Bros shopping center on La Mirada Boulevard, a short walk from the Biola University campus . The idea was a sunny neighborhood corner serving fresh, sweet-and-savory breakfast plates and coffee, the kind of casual spot where locals could settle in for the morning¹ .

What to order

• C&S Grilled Cheese: eggs, soy chorizo, spinach, bacon and melted cheeses stacked on a bolillo roll¹
• Acai Bowl: a fresh, lighter option topped with fruit and granola¹
• Nutella Bana Waffle: a sweet highlight with bananas and whipped cream¹
• Spanish Latte: among the specialty coffee drinks that round out the menu¹

Why you should try it

If you're staying in La Mirada, this is a reliable nearby stop for a casual breakfast or brunch, with popular croissants, waffles and acai bowls plus a coffee menu worth lingering over¹ . Grab a table, order the Everything Croissant, and settle into the kind of unhurried corner that makes a short stay feel local¹ .
