“Stopped by Be Bright Coffee and ordered a cortado made with their Colombia Paola Trujillo Wush Wush Natural. The coffee had tasting notes of blood orange, red currant, honeysuckle, and tart cherry juice, which made it a really interesting coffee to experience in a milk drink.
The cortado itself was very well executed. The milk had a smooth, creamy texture with strong integration, and the body remained cohesive throughout most of the drink. As I worked my way through it, the espresso and milk continued to hold together nicely without developing a thick or separated layer of foam. The tasting notes had good clarity and came through well in the milk. The latte art could have been a little cleaner and more defined, but that’s a minor presentation detail and didn’t take away from the quality of the drink.
My main technical feedback would be the temperature. It was served just slightly hotter than I think it should have been. The flavors were still clear from the beginning, but the difference became noticeable as the cortado cooled. The coffee really opened up, and those fruit-forward characteristics became even more expressive and enjoyable. Starting the drink at that slightly lower temperature would have made the experience feel more dialed in from the very first sip.
I gave Be Bright four stars, and part of that comes down to the $10 price of the cortado. At that price point, I think the expectations naturally move into a different category. When you’re paying $10 for a cortado featuring a coffee like this, I’m expecting the execution to be as close to perfect as possible. The slightly higher serving temperature, along with the minor presentation detail, was enough to keep this one from reaching that level for me.
The customer service was excellent. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, and the person working the register was especially nice and made the experience feel inviting. Overall, it was a very good cortado with quality coffee behind it, and I’d definitely return to try some of the other beans they offer.“

“This coffee shop is amazing! The owner, Wali, is a very kind man and very knowledgeable about his craft. The coffee is sourced from Colombia and tastes AMAZING!!! He’s coming up on his 4 year anniversary of opening the shop, and I can’t wait to come back and celebrate. If you’re looking for a laid back and delicious vibe, this is the place for you.
Thanks Wali!!!“
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great coffee spot near UCLA, In-N-Out and the chevron gas station. The barista was super friendly and kind. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming with lots of room to sit. There was also a couch to chill on while you wait. Music was a vibe. Matcha was on point and made just right. Highly recommend checking out this new spot in westwood. If you work or live nearby you have to stop by. Located on the corner of Gayley and Le Conte.“

“Great place to do some work. There's a lot of indoor and outdoor space with really nice atmosphere. My oat milk latte was good. The BLAT (bacon lettuce avocado tomato) sandwich for lunch was also good. Service was friendly and quick! Some other notes: bathroom was clean. Charging outlets only outside, none inside. Heavily visited by business people and office workers so I kinda felt out of place wearing casual clothing lol“

“Caffe Luxxe is one of our go-to coffee shops in Manhattan Beach. The coffee is absolutely amazing and they have a very good location. The food is mostly sweets and they do have some burritos but really the coffee is amazing. The service is a little slow because I think they only have three or four people working there and if they were to increase the speed of service they would probably make a lot more money.
Keep up the good work. We love this place.“

“Found this place on a Google Maps search. We went here at the end of a walk.
The gentleman serving was very friendly. The ice mocha and caramel latte we ordered were really delicious……and not too sweet.
I would recommend this coffee shop to people that enjoy local shops“

“One of the best coffee shops I had been to while staying in California. Awesome baristas who are kind and friendly. The coffee is out of this world. It’s so good and every note is extracted perfectly. A recommended stop while you are in Culver City!“
“My son gave me the gift of the enrollment in a beginner barista class which I attended this past weekend. Jacob was a fabulous teacher and the class was jam packed with information that was easy to understand and practical tips that would be easy to remember. We learned about the tools needed to make great espresso at home. The bean, the grinder, the tamper, the portafilter, the machine and frother and anything I may have forgotten to mention here. The history lesson of the coffee fruit that delivers the robust coffee flavors enjoyed daily by billions of people around the globe. The class was fun and taught at a careful pace. Also toured the facility and learned about the process of roasting coffee. I highly recommend this class! Thank you City Bean Roasters.“

“One of the most light-filled coffee shops in the Valley with the happiest team of baristas I have ever encountered. The range of seating arrangements makes this my favorite place to get work done when I want to take a break from working from home. My go-to drinks are the hot chocolate and the red velvet lattes! 100/10, highly recommend 😊“

“I write for a music and coffee blog called Crooners In Coffeeshops, in which I interview local musicians at local coffeeshops. My writeup reflects the positive experience that I encountered at Caffe Luxxe on our interview date. L.A. based small batch coffee roaster Caffe Luxxe is wonderful example of what can grow from the powerful bond of friendship, specifically one that spans decades like that of owners Mark Wain and Gary Chau. Taking the chance to quit their corporate jobs in 2006, they’ve been able to fuel their business from their personal relationship and their love for European luxury caffe culture. A fun fact, Caffe Luxxe is the first of its kind in L.A. for artisan coffee preparation, and boy golly, it is not one to miss at any of its So Cal locations. The coffee world is your oyster when picking your beverage of choice from their delectable menu of drips, pour overs, and a unique variety of Bevande Di Caffe (including a chocolate-y shaken Caffe Shakerato, a sparkling espresso Caffe Frizzante, and a spiced citrus Caffe Nico). If seasonal specials are your thing, have no fear, because they’ve got those covered too! What more could you ask for?“
“This Whole Foods was a lifesaver when I was rushing to the airport and realized I didn’t pack vegan protein snacks for my long flight back to London. It was clean, large, and had everything I needed. I picked up some vegan meat slices, coco June protein yogurt, and some tofu. I also didn’t feel worried about all my luggage in the car in the parking lot, which isn’t usually the case when I go to grocery stores near airport. Updated from previous review on 2026-08-08“
