La La Land Kind Cafe, a Dallas-based coffee shop, is expanding its operation to west Fort Worth, bringing its signature yellow branding and mission of spreading happiness to the area. The new location, estimated to cost $350,000, is expected to be completed by October and will compete with several existing coffee shops in the area. What sets La La Land Kind Cafe apart is its unique approach to customer service, where baristas offer words of encouragement to customers, and its commitment to giving back to the community. The cafe's TikTok account, which has gained nearly 6.5 million followers, features drive-by videos of employees complimenting random strangers on the street, showcasing the brand's mission in action. With its organic coffee, limited menu items, and commitment to empowering foster youth, La La Land Kind Cafe is a breath of fresh air in the coffee shop scene. As the brand continues to expand, it will be interesting to see how it impacts the local community and whether its unique approach will resonate with customers.
