What a cute little coffee shop! Lola is actually inside a corner of The Grove, which can make its entrance just a little hard to find as the entrance is over by the shops, not the entrance to The Grove. At the time of this review, they are only open from 7a-11a, likely bc they share tables with the restaurant. This also means that all seating is at tables, with no comfy lounge chairs. Staff was very nice, and they actually served my coffee in a real mug-something I love but that seems to have faded in the post-pandemic world. I ordered an Americano, Migas Taco, and a Blueberry muffin for the kiddo. The baked goods are delivered fresh each day from Texas French Bread Bakery and Bistro. I also saw the baristo making a latte drink for another customer and the milk art he did on top was gorgeous! I would have snagged a pic for you, but that probably would have been a little creepy. The Migas taco was flavorful and, combined with the verde salsa, has a nice kick to it. All in all, a nice place to grab a good cup of coffee!

Apparently Lola closes at 11am and the curt hostess at The Grove didn't even offer us a table for lunch so we left.

Quaint spot attached to The Grove in Cedar Park. Simple menu making it easy to order. I came in looking to sit outside to finish some work. There are two small tables outside perfect for " bistro business " work mode. I ordered a cappuccino and a migas taco. I think their tacos come from Torchys - but not 100%. The coffee and taco were just fine. Nothing amazing. But that's what's needed. Too flashy becomes more of a Instagram spot than a coffee shop. If you're planning on working you'll need Wi-Fi. Lola Savanna has it, but it's trash. Poor signal even from inside the building and a less than 2mb connection is what resulted during a frustrated speed test,So - I could not linger too long. The weather was nice and it's great to be outside. Unfortunately the location has intense car traffic making the noise less than focus- worthy. If you're looking for a coffee shop work spot and you don't need WiFi- inside would be the only option. Staff was friendly and prompt. Nice facility and I love the grove. So all in all not terrible. Just less than great. Thanks for eating with me today - I'll see you next time.

The coffee was pretty regular for the price i paid. I was there was for the internet and i wasn't able to connect and they didn't really seem to care and were nonchalant about it. Chugged my coffee and headed straight out!

Small coffee shop attached to The Grove restaurant. The ambiance is great if you plan to work there - high windows, not too crowded, etc. However the coffee is too expensive in my opinion. If you're looking for a change of work-from-home scenery, this is a good option.

We did not see breakfast tacos like I saw in reviews, but coffee and cafe mocha were wonderful. Not crowded. Very clean and quiet place unlike Starbucks! We enjoyed our morning coffee : )

While the coffee and atmosphere was pleasant, the service was not. I stood at the counter with no line and 4 employees were behind the counter talking only one preparing coffee. They all made eye contact with me and continued to talk and laugh amongst themselves, after a few minutes of me standing there one employee finally sighed and came to take my order. A while after my friend came to join me and also had to wait around 5 minutes for their order to be taken. This would be understandable if they were busy but the were not and the employees were just on their personal cellphones.

We got a flat white and a hot chocolate and both were very good! Nice place to sit and relax.

This shop is actually attached to The Grove restaurant. It was hard to find until I looked at the outdoor photos. Now that I know where it's at, I'll definitely be back! Great coffee and breakfast tacos.

Watered down coffee. Not very good, safe yourself a trip and don't go here. It's also inside the groove.

It was hot outside so I stopped by here for a cold beverage and ended ordering the Iced Hibiscus Mint Tea. The tea was refreshing and quenched my thirst. The service was nice and the area clean. The bathrooms are shared with the Grove and they were clean and orderly. There are several tables to sit. Because you walk straight into the Grove it felt more like getting coffee at a department store than the usual coffee shop. Parking is shared by many businesses so you may have to walk a little further, but it's available. If you are in the area and just want to get a quick refresher, then stop by and order a cup of Joe or tea, it is good!

Nearly impossible to find. Just know it's inside the Grove restaurant. Great coffee and nice selection of baked goods. Will keep in mind for future business meetings as it's pretty quiet and conveniently located close to the expressway.

I got a beautifully made double cappuccino and on a whim a migas taco and a bean and cheese taco. Holy man, the tacos are the star of the show here! Firstly, they are super cheap, I only paid about $1 each. They were wrapped in 2 thin tortillas and were absolutely stuffed full and came with some sauce. Great deal for a fast and filling breakfast. They tasted really fresh and were not soggy or anything. This place is gorgeous inside, although the small door for the coffee shop is not easy to spot. They are located in an area with a bit of a strip mall so there is a lot of options for parking around the area and some shaded parking even. The restrooms in this place were spotless! They have a free Wi-Fi password on a board on the front counter for your convenience. My only downfall is there is not a lot of great seating, especially for privacy. They have 2-3 booths that are allowed until the wine bar opens, and a long counter in the back that I used, but otherwise it is mainly just a grouping of tables in the middle of the room all together. No matter where you sit most of the place has complete view of what you're doing. It is a great place to meet friends and chat, which many of the other patrons were doing. I'll definitely be back for a more casual visit instead of for getting work done.

Coffee was decent, nothing special. Would probably give it another go, but the service wasn't great. Guy at the counter wasn't friendly at all, and we almost felt like we were bothering him when taking our order. Also took about 10 minutes to get our 2 coffees. So for that reason we won't be back. Bummer

So most all reviews I post are positive. This is an exception. I frequent coffee shops on a weekly basis, sometimes more. Never made it around to trying this place. Reviews looked good and it was close by. Thought I would try it out. Coffee; wasn't bad but wasn't good. I tried an iced lavender latte light ice. They only had whole milk or milk alternatives. Surprised no skim- but usually the drink is just richer tasting. The latte had very little espresso taste. It was mostly a bland milk drink. Didn't taste the lavender much. Nothing that I'd come back for for over $5. It's a shop attached to a restaurant with glass windows. Was a little confusing to find but is attached to and part of the Grove. Not long after I sat down a staff member told me I would have to leave. They were closing up for a larger party? There was no sign, the barista said nothing to me. He said the coffee shop closes at 3 now. He says it's been that way a few weeks now. I showed him hours posted online at an 8 closing time....He wasn't mean or anything just doing his job, but to a brand new customer being told to leave felt weird. He did point out a taped sign on the door: not visible when you walk in through the restaurant part. On the way out I checked there too. Nothing. I expressed that it was my first time there and I hadn't even finished my drink. He reluctantly told me I could move and sit at a small booth at the restaurant but asked how long I would be there because they would need that for dinner guests. I paid for a drink....Perhaps visible signs, or a barista saying just so you know we close soon, or updated online hours would help. There was a couple who got kicked out beside me too. I won't be coming back to the coffee shop or restaurant. I have friends that are also coffee explorers. I'll have to tell them this was a big miss.
