50 Best Coffee Shops near City Terrace

“Best donuts in los Angeles period“

“wonderful staff delicious coffee“

“I've been there with my sister a couple months ago. We had Filipino iced coffee, matcha affogato and matcha cookies. We still can't forget the flavor of the drinks. Filipino iced coffee is our core memory of our trip to USA. The best coffee we've ever tasted.“

“It’s a one of kind experience! I ♥️ their coffee, pastries and the ambiance!“

“Great food and cocktails!! 🍸“

“I recommend Botanica to everyone. They use fresh hand picked ingredients and the food is delicous! Their cocktails and desserts are so yum. I picked up some chile oil and pickled local veggies for gifts for my friends! Chef Zarah and the staff are best. Will definitely be returning soon.“

“Daily use of their matchas!“

“My God I’m so grateful. I was already in little Tokyo and wanted a matcha. A quick google search lead me to this place and it’s said to be the best in LA. I think, I can agree with that statement. What in grateful is it was a Saturday evening, they work till 8pm. All other days they close at 5pm and Monday they are closed. I ordered oatmeal matcha latte , it was 6.50 and worth it“

“Love this place and all the seating options. I only have 1 complaint which is the menu wording - “+ your choice of milk!” makes people assume alt milk is free when it’s 50c extra. We already know we have choice of milk!! just include it in the price or take it off the menu lol“

“Pretty good! The dan dan noodle tasted great. The wonton soup was okay and the beef roll was a little lacking on meat. The Taiwanese sausage seemed a bit small for $7 but was pretty good.

Overall very reasonable prices and the food is pretty decent.“

“Grade A+ (96): Small little kitchen, don't know how much food can come out of it!! They have a small little sitting area, but we most often do it as take out. The Jambon Beurre (Ham and Butter) are my favorite, the Baguette 🥖 is awesome and they put a hefty amount of butter and French Ham very thinking sliced. The Ham & Cheese and the Chocolate Croissants are very good but you have to go early, by 12:30 they were sold out! The guys are very friendly, prices are a bit on the high side but what can you do, it's unique.“

“Love the Pink Latte just as much as I loved my experience with the Manager Sam. Great staff, wonderful service. ill definitely be back.“

“Best Breakfast in Hollywood! We love it. Also the people they work there, are very friendly. Easy parking in front of the restaurant. Aircondition and relaxed music... So let us start in the day perfectly! ❤️❤️❤️“

“Best bakery...love their pastries.“

“Totally worth the 70 minute drive. Delicious food and great Taiwanese hospitality. Friendly, attentive staff and wonderful atmosphere. Minced Pork (Lu-Rou) Rice, fully loaded delicious stewed pork with egg. Meats are juicy and tender, kinda on the sweet side. Clamshell bun (Gua Bao) comes with tender thick cut pork, a bit on the salty side, but very well cooked. Fatty but not greasy. Thousand layer pancake with egg and basil was crispy and flaky. The basil flavor is a wonderful addition. Scallion bread sandwich was what we expected. Same tender thick cut pork, very happy to eat this. Next time I will probably get the beef, too much pork belly today Wonton soup is very classic, if you like shrimp wontons, you have to try this. We ended the meal with Hakka mochi and Oolong tea, the mochi tasted just like the ones in Taiwan. The tea was fragrant and is just the perfect compliment to the mochi. Overall an amazing meal with warm and friendly people, highly recommend!“

“Great lattes, coffee and tea selection“

“*This is a cashless operation*

I walk in and 무풍상태 by Happy End Plus Alpha is playing. I think to myself someone here has great taste in music.

Three guys are standing behind the counter and all three instantly greet me and are super friendly. Explaining the menu and what they think I should try.

I took their suggestions and went with it.

All of their coffee has at least 3-4shots of espresso so be prepared to be full of energy.

Sorry I didn’t get a picture of the menu I was too busy in conversation with the baristas.

This place is easy to miss and pass by.

If you’re headed down Sunset and see that little green building make sure you stop. This might be one of the best coffee spots in the area.“

“The coffee here is so delicious. I’m visiting from out of town and have tried both the Pistachio Latte and the Tiramisu Latte and wow, I was really impressed. The coffee flavor really comes through in both of these drinks. Definitely recommend.“

“Great food and so friendly service.“

“While we were in the area taking care of something, we decided to stop and grab something to eat and have some coffee. Honestly, I’m so glad we did.

This place is absolutely amazing and definitely a must-try if you’re in the area. Even if you’re not, it’s worth the trip. Everything we tried was delicious, and the espresso drinks were delightful— not too sweet, just the right balance.

We’ve actually been back three times since our first visit, and the experience has been amazing every time. The staff is super friendly and helpful, which makes the experience even better.

The location might surprise you. This gem is tucked away in a somewhat random location, with no real storefront, in a small downtown-style corridor. The seating area is next door, which is also a little unexpected, but it’s very cute and nicely done.

The food has bold, explosive flavors and is truly something different. Everything we’ve tried has been delicious and memorable.

Even though I live about 45 minutes away, I’ll definitely be coming back with friends and family. This is one of those places I’m happy to make the drive for.“

“This place is awesome. Really beautiful inside with a very laid back atmosphere. The staff was super friendly. I had the smoked lamb pita and I can't stop thinking about it because it was fantastic. 10/10 looking forward to going back.“

“Cutest little coffee shop, perfect for grab-n-go. I did drive past it the first time I went, they have a green banner instead of a sign and the shop is part of a building housing other businesses. Staff was very friendly and the inside was clean. I got the featured iced banana cream top latte both days I stayed in Glendale. It was just the right amount of sweetness without going overboard. Can't wait to try their other drinks when I go back to LA 😋“

“This was the first time my wife and I had been to this coffee shop. I loved the atmosphere, very quiet and chill. The iced latte was spot on. My wife and I shared an avocado toast which was fantastic, never thought to put cucumber on the toast with a strawberry but it paired well. The toast did take 30 minutes to get to us. I had to go to the to the register and ask about it. I was told that the cook never received the order due to there being no paper in their machine. It happens so no biggie. My only advice would be maybe to have offered a free coffee or some compensation for waiting so long. Overall though, this place was fantastic and I would return!“

“I’ve had this coffee shop on my list and finally went this week. I had brunch nearby so I just walked 6 minutes to this shop so I didn’t have to move my car , so I cannot speak as to the parking situation. As soon as you walk in, the vibe is so cool. The vibrant funky colors of the 70’s era was cool. They had Tarantino movie memorabilia all over the shop. It was quiet enough to have a conversation. I saw two other people working on their laptops. There’s outdoor seating but it was over 95 degrees this day so we opted for the cool AC indoors.

I ordered the brown Suga cinnamon iced lattes with oat milk and omg I’m still thinking about that latte. It was soo good. Not too sweet and not strong. It was just well balanced and had plenty of cinnamon which if you’re a cinnamon fan, this is gonna be the drink for you. I would come here again for sure and order the same thing. I don’t even wanna try anything else. It was just that deliciously made.“

“I loveeee this place!!! definitely one of my fav matcha spots ever! the service will always be one of my favorites as well :). ive tried all of their matchas on the menu and my favorite is the banana cream matcha. all of their syrups are made in house and taste sooo good!“

“I Love Amara!!! The best Avocado Toast in town!!! Nice atmosphere, friendly people and great service!“

“What an absolute gem of a find! I visited for the first time today—and to my absolute delight, just five minutes from my home, I found a real maritozzo con panna that transported me straight back to Rome! You have no idea how happy this made me.
If I could, I’d give it a solid 4.5 out of 5 stars! If I may humbly offer one tiny, respectful suggestion from a passionate Roman heart: try making the cream (la panna) completely unsweetened. In Rome, we keep the whipped cream unsweetened because the light dusting of powdered sugar on top and the soft, sweet brioche bun already provide the perfect amount of sweetness.
At first glance, unsweetened cream might feel like it's missing something, but I promise you, it creates such a delicious balance that people will end up ordering two! Back home, I can easily polish off two in one sitting, whereas here I was full after one just from the extra sugar rush. (And you will save money on the sugar saved !)
Thank you for making such a wonderful place and bringing a taste of Italy so close to home. I can't wait to come back!“

“I LOVE this place! They have happy hour from 3pm-6pm on the weekdays, but the best part is Joy the amazing Barista! She is very nice and will always make your day! I get so much school work done here! 1000 stars!“

“First time eating here … first thing I noticed is super clean here really organized everybody’s friendly … I want to say thank you to the waiter Pablo. You did an amazing job service the way you talk to me about the menu. What is your favor ? And I went with. Schnitzel

pickle-brined & breaded chicken cutlet, marinated cabbage, herbs, fancy relish & sfv ranch on griddled challah …. I’ll definitely like their fries there. They definitely remind me of the 90s McDonald’s fries. 🍟
I’m definitely gonna come back thanks to you Pablo. You did an amazing job.“

“Delicious coffee, latina owned and operated very nice establishment. Beautiful Salvadorian culture“

“One Scape is by far one of my favorite coffee shops to visit. It is such a relaxing atmosphere. All the baristas are extremely friendly and just amazing. If the coffee doesn't make your day, they will. If you are more so a coffee drinker their cold brew and hot lattes are great. If looking for something sweet or coffee alternative the pine refresher is a must and they can always adjust the sweetness. Definitely a place to stop by and stay awhile.“

“It's a nice quiet atmosphere the workers are very nice and polite very friendly the pistachio coffee is bomb my daughter gets the machi machi idk what it's called but she is very tough to please when it comes to her coffee but she loves this spot she loves loves it every time she's in my area she'll wanna stops here to get her coffee love you Monique 💋“

“Excellent cappuccino with rich, smooth flavor and perfectly balanced foam. The cozy atmosphere and fresh pastry selection make this little coffee shop an absolute gem. Everything tasted fresh, warm, and made with care. Highly recommend stopping by!“

“This place was hands down, the best breakfast spot you could ever choose. We tried a variety of options: avocado toast, Nutella & banana croissant, banana and pb toast, and a bagel sandwich. Every single thing was 10/10. The coffee was somehow EVEN better. Best coffee I have ever had!!! Cannot recommend this place enough!“

“I wasn't having the best day when I walked into Boba Sound in Koreatown. I was frustrated, irritated, and honestly just not in a great mood. The moment I walked in, however, I was welcomed by Kelly, whose smile was as bright as a cloudless morning sun.

Kelly was friendly, knowledgeable about the menu, and gave excellent recommendations. I ended up trying the honeydew smoothie with lychee jelly, and it was absolutely delicious—I highly recommend that combination.

What made this visit special wasn't just the drink. Within a couple of minutes of interacting with Kelly, my entire attitude and outlook had changed. Her kindness, charisma, and genuine thoughtfulness made me feel seen and appreciated. She seemed to sense I wasn't having the best day and went out of her way to make the experience better. She even gave me the little bit of smoothie that was left in the blender, which was such a simple but thoughtful gesture.

Great customer service can completely change someone's day, and that's exactly what happened here. I'll definitely be coming back—not just for the amazing smoothies, but for the outstanding service and welcoming atmosphere.

If I'm anywhere near the area, Boba Sound will be one of my stops. Kelly deserves recognition for the exceptional experience she provided. Five stars isn't enough—I would gladly give 20 stars if that were an option.“

“Damo’s Strawberry Matcha is absolutely amazing—beautifully presented, delicious, and totally worth the hype! 🍓🍵 If you’re in LA, it’s a must-try. Bonus points for having free parking, which feels almost impossible to find in Los Angeles!“

“From the first interaction with staff till the very last, loved every part of my visit. They were very busy that day but the guy was so sweet and attentive. He was the only one serving the tables but remained super kind. I ordered the red chilaquiles with carnitas and asked for the spicy salsa to pour on top and wow - amazing flavor. Truly recommend these chilaquiles. I want to go back!“

“Maru has really Nice green tea latte. I usually leaning toward coffee and Maru’ coffee is super nice. But, their iced green tea latte is something else.“

“Super glad I found a new exciting spot with GREAT coffee. My tastebuds were very happy with my iced sugarfree vanilla latte and banana cold foam! The coffee was bold and smooth and they did not over power the coffee with sugar! The staff was so friendly and sweet! I’ll be back again and again 🤍🤍🤍“

“Yummy donuts everything looks delicious 😋“

“Here's why I like this place so much: great coffee, easy parking, indoor and outdoor seating, and when the guy at the register points out a book I'm reading and offers a rec for a Korean author I've never heard of? I'm all in.“

“First time trying and will say it was delicious. I got the Iced Spiced Mocha 🔥 .. doesn't come sweetened so just an FYI I know some people like sweet drinks I loved it😋. Actually got to speak with the owner for a bit. It's a Salvadorian family owned & operated business and they own their own coffee fields in El Salvador. Glad I got to try them out definitely going back“

“Nice vibes, convenient location with easy parking, beautiful decor. Service was lacking, but understand there is a labor shortage right now, perhaps that's to blame here. Bodega sando was perfection! Pastries were alright...most looked better than they tasted. I'd say they were good but not great.“

“Friendly with an owesone staff. Coffee was so delicious.. � definitely. No more words than yummy..“

“friendly staff- awesome coffee - great hangout“

“Stopped by Reunion and Company and had a cortado during my visit. Overall, it was a good drink with nice presentation and a smooth texture. My main critique was the temperature. It was served a bit hotter than a cortado should be, which made it harder to pick up some of the flavors right away. Once it cooled down slightly, the drink opened up nicely and was much more enjoyable.

There were also a few small bubbles on the surface, but nothing major. The drink was still well made and enjoyable overall.

The cafe itself is beautiful and one of those places that’s easy to spend time in. Whether you’re meeting friends, getting some work done, or just hanging out, it’s a very cool space with a great atmosphere. The service was friendly, welcoming, and straightforward throughout the visit.

Overall, a solid cortado, a great environment, and a place I’d happily return to multiple times.“

“Their specialty coffee and matcha drinks are both fantastic, and I often pair them with one of the pastries. Everything is fresh, and the staff is always happy to warm up baked goods, which makes them even better. The shop itself is cozy and welcoming. Seating can be limited during busy hours, but that's a testament to how popular the place is. It's more of a grab-a-coffee-and-enjoy-the-vibe kind of spot rather than a place to spend hours working.“

“엘에이에 가면 커피마시러 가장 먼저 가보고 싶은 곳 💕💕💕“

“Very good cafe, horchata latte was awesome and so was the izal smoothie! They ran out of an item and very kindly substituted it for us. Hello kitty pancakes were very light and airy but still had a crunch on the outside. Exceded my expectations 👍🏼“

“I enjoy coming here when my partner and I can't agree one something. I wish the seating was more comfortable and the less cramped together but there usually is somewhere to sit. The cleaning staff is always quick to clear tables and manage trash and dishes. Even at its busiest there is usually plenty of parking.“
