Take the Kids to a Museum Just For Them!
marinarena Says: Children's Museum of La HabraHurray! La Habra does have a touristy landmark. OK, it's not Disneyland but, hey, it's something! It's perfect for this community. The museum is not so big and flashy but attractive and neat. It is touted as the only museum where it is allowed to...

The Cat and Custard Cup: What ? A 4 -Star Restaurant in La Habra? Yes!
marinarena Says: In a modest town such as La Habra, one expects to go out of town for fine dining, at least immediately east to more chic Fullerton and Brea. This would be the case if there was not The Cat and Custard Cup on historic Whittier Blvd. A truly delightful culinary establishment...
El Cholo: Eat Mex at Gorgeous El Cholo
marinarena Says: El Cholo has a chain of beautiful and widely touted restaurants in L.A. and Orange counties. Gladly, modest La Habra can claim having one, located along the locally famous Whittier Blvd, known for its classic Latino vibe. The colorful eaterie is just off Harbor Blvd, the...
El Taco Nazo: Have the best Fish Tacos in Town!
marinarena Says: Taco Nazo is a city favorite of mine. There are a few other locations (I believe no more than 6) but the one in La Habra is the one I know and the best overall location, off Beach Blvd. Choose from tacos, burritos, tortas (sandwiches) and mariscos (seafood). I almost always...
Cafe El Cholo: Un Poco de Mexico
travelteacher Says: Even if you have been to the other El Colos, this one is the BEST! The full menu is available in the bar, and they have the greatest margaritas. In the picture, you might notice the mariachis behind my friends and me. They're there every Friday and Saturday. And on most...

It's a Grind: Coffee and Customer-Friendly -Forget Starbucks!
marinarena Says: For So California visitors and those already here, head to this independent coffeehouse . There are various locations, but I just visited this one in La Habra. There is very genuine friendly customer service to go along with your coffee or tea. Also there are very delectable...
la_beba Says: Close your eyes...(figuratively, or else this is going to be very boring, which it might be anyway) For those of us who didnt grow up with Krispy Kreme, just bare with me and try to use your imagination and fix your thoughts on a 40's retro green and white box of heaven...
The La Habra 16 movie theater is located on Imperial Highway. They have, as the name suggest, 16 theaters and are open from 9am until the wee hours of the morning when a new movie is out. The cost for tickets is not so bad when you do the matinee thing where you can get to see a first run movie for $5.75. The matinees are normally before 530pm so pick a movie before that time.

Some locals complain of the lack of freeway access here, especially my mother. La Habra is easy to miss if travelling by freeway in southern California. The closest freeway exit to LH is the 57exit off Lambert Rd , a few miles away (about 10 min drive) from the town's center .

La Habra is the exceptional town of Orange county, the only one with the higher tax rate on purchases! Boo! She really wants to be in higher taxing Los Angeles county! As of 2011, the sales tax is at a rate of 8.25, the same as the city of L.A. and L.A towns within the county. Check site for any updates on the tax.

marinarena Says: If you are drifting from the freeways and happen to be in the area, you'll be in luck! La Habra tends to have less expensive gas than in other cities, about $ 0.05- 0.30 cents less than the L.A. average ! So, if La Habra can be known for something locally, it can be deemed...
Unique and Cheap at the La Habra Ranch Market

This is a very bad intersection as many folks use the right turn only lane as their shortcut around the other drivers.
Please ... if you are in a right turn only lane make the right turn.

Westridge is a beautiful hillside public course that is definatively off the beaten path in So Cal.
There is a man-made lake and though the yardage is small, the layout is a good challenge for the intermediate and skilled players.
The signature hole is #16, a 337-yard, par 4.
Fees are $50-80
Equipment: A collared shirt and bermuda shorts! No denim

This is the town where I grew up. It's not big, and if you're from Southern California, you've probably olny heard of it because of Paul--the King of the Big Screen
