The guys during the afternoon shift never make the drinks taste or look the same. Past week I have been getting the same drink morning/noon time & it’s only when the 2 guys make my drink when they mess by ignoring using oatmilk(even when I paid for it) - or when asked for 1less syrup pump/shot the request is ignored . Except these 2 the place is nice with good food

This review is not about 85c as a whole, just this location. I have been to at least 8 different locations, and generally have an amazing experience. This location consistently puts out burnt and/or undercooked product. There's something going on with their ovens, or quality checks. Also they are almost always out of most items. Even if you go mid morning. Additional the team almost always gets the drink order wrong, and rarely fixes it. And on top of that they are rude about the whole thing. Something is going on with management, and training. I love 85. This is the closest location to me. I still probably stick to the ktown location because I'm tired of burnt and undercooked items.

The downtown location is surprisingly clean and their baked goods and pastries are fresh. They appear to have a regular clientele who stops in on their way to work or class. On the weekdays anyway. They probably sell through their products faster maintaining their freshness. This is a takeout only location. No seating at all. Grab and go. It's nearby several downtown hotels, Sheraton, Hilton, Hotel Per La, as well as several colleges. Staff is friendly and efficient. They keep the location clean and tidy. I have observed them handling difficult people, who are not customers, but who walk in off of the streets, with grace and kindness when the situation needs to be addressed. This is a small, but mighty location. People who work, live, go to school or visit downtown L.A. are lucky to have it as a choice among several Starbucks. Parking is a challenge. Metered street parking and a few parking garages are available.

The place is very hidden, poor customer service, the product has improved but outside there are many people asking for money. It is very uncomfortable to go in to shop because there is a bad smell like urine outside.

It's a proper bakery with breads, cakes and pastries made daily. The coffee doesn't rank tho. But the one-serve slices and tarts are priced better than Starbucks.
The manager was Asian and extremely rude to me when I asked to use the bathroom. She told the same thing over and over again as if I was mentally challenged.

A nice little Asian bakery with fluffy mousse like cream cakes and icy drinks.

So glad there's an 85C bakery in DTLA. It's our office's go-to place for birthday cakes! Prices are affordable and the cakes are decadently good! Ordered the Ube Cream cake for some whimsical fun and the taste was divine! Creamy and moist, not heavy and not even sweet! Had the Classic Tiramisu cake last time for another birthday occasion and it was also moist and delicious! It's my ultimate favorite! Decorations for both cakes were pretty and spot-on! If there's anything to critique, I didn't find any except am hoping they'd moved to a bigger location, perhaps by 7th & Figueroa to better accommodate many patrons not to mention, it'll be closer to my work!Thank you 85C! Will be back for more birthday cakes for our hard working team! Yes, I've tried their sweet and savory baked goods as well as Sea Salt iced coffee drinks from other 85C locations, but being that DTLA is my place of work, this is ideally the place to go.
