Fika Fika is a cute little coffee shop that also specializes in tea and ice cream offerings in Arcadia. It is located in the same plaza as the Korean supermarket H-Mart, so it’s very convenient for getting yourself a caffeine boost before doing some grocery shopping.There is plenty of parking in the plaza and plenty of seating inside the shop, but the seats stay almost always full of customers either working on their laptops or just hanging out. There are also a few tables and chairs outside if you prefer some fresh air. You see customers ranging from the elderly to young students, so it seems their flavors appeal to all age ranges.We got an iced latte with honey boba and the house Fika coffee. The boba was quite sweet and paired with the coffee nicely. We also got an iced taro milk drink. I asked for half sweet but the cashier said it would result in less taro, so I left it as is. Oh boy was that drink overly sweet, to the point I could not finish it.Based on both drinks I would say their offerings are definitely on the overly sweet side. The packed shop was also a nice sign to see life returning back to normal. I’ll update my review once I sample their ice cream and tea drinks. In the mean time, I would say come here if you enjoy a big cup of extreme sweetness!
Fika Fika is a rather inconspicuous coffee shop in Arcadia, a corner unit in the plaza next to an H-mart. Despite the simple, generic exterior look, it feels warmer and lively inside. There are ample seats, a roaster, and even an ice cream stand. They serve coffee, tea, and a variety of breakfast items including waffles and toasts.The cappuccino was ok, a bit too hot. Honestly I'm more excited about seeing the Victoria Arduino espresso machine than the drink itself.
Always pass by, on our way to the H mart. My boyfriend and I were hungry and thought let's try Fika Fika!We were both pleasantly surprised, friendly staff, cute decor, and yummy food?We've been here twice, I have tried the Salmon toast and the egg salad toast and my boyfriend's go to so far are the berry waffles and the espresso ? toast plates come with a nice, refreshing salad ?We will definitely go back, and next we will try the ice cream ?One more thing, they are card only and add your phone number to get points.
The honeycomb waffle was warm and delicious, with $1 extra for the drink add on.Tea runs a little sweet, so would recommend to order a little unsweet and add sugar if needed with sugar packs.Although it was spaces pretty closed to each other, lots of tables and seats were available. If you would like more privacy, where are seats in the back room that is away from people.
Great place to study in the AM before 10. It becomes crowded afterwards and 6ft distancing is nonexistent at most tables if you’re looking for this feature. I’ve had a variety of drinks and they are always great and made well. Although I was disappointed with the amount of sweet potato fries they were made perfectly - crispy, not excessively oily, and did not come with salt nor sugar already sprinkled on top. I had the honeycomb waffle which was a much larger portion than expected. The “honeycomb” is good but sticks to my teeth. They have ice cream here which looks appetizing but I have yet tried. Also if you order a drink you need to pick it up at the counter even if you order food. Usually drinks are ready sooner and they will call the number on your ticket for pick up. However food will be brought to you.
Wonderful space to study and/or place to meet with friends, loved ones, acquaintances...unique selection of coffee and tea experiences including desserts! The staff there are friendly and open to recommend anything you have questions on. Another huge plus is it is in the same lot where Hmart in Arcadia is - which you can also get grocery shopping done/ other snacks/food items home.
East Coast guy here and the coffee/food was excellent! I'll definitely will be coming back next time I'm in the area! :)

Fika Fika has become my favorite spot to hangout with friends, get my work done and enjoy my self-time with a cup of latte or fruit tea at all time!! Already recommended to my friends and family members and they love it so much too. They have a very nice and clean environment to relax and focus, every time I am here, I feel so welcomed with their good service and delicious food/drinks. This time I brought my friend here the first time and we got the followings- Mango Green Tea $5.00- Blue Mango Tea $5.00- Ube Latte $5.50Tea is very fruity and refreshing in the warm sunny morning, perfectly adjusted for my 25% sweetness level. The ube latte is one of my favorite drinks here. I am very impressed with the creamy taste from the ube flavor which nicely balanced with the bitterness from the latte. Very satisfied overall.
What a lovely cafe to work and meet friends!! There are already a lot of students studying from here when I arrived. It's a chilled & relaxing atmosphere you'll love.I got taro milk and matcha, two awesome non-coffee drinks. They're a little sweet but not extremely sweet. Great for topping up your energy level but didn't knock you out in half an hour later.There is music but at the right level. Outside seatings are great too! It's in a shopping centre area so I felt pretty safe to sit outside. Great sunlight & small wind AND FREE-WIFI!
