50 Best Coffee Shops near Toluca Lake

“Great place .Love green tea latte.Very friendly place to relax“

“Great tasty phenomenal meal. I had Ube pancakes, brisket waffle sandwich, lemon ricotta waffle with fried chicken. Everything was superb, the only thing I would complain is that when the waitress asked what celebrity I wanted on my latte, I said "P.Diddy" and she would not allow this ??? her response was "we don't allow that here, we won't allow that anywhere!"“

“My favorite CBTL because of the EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE! Juan, Esme, Santiago, Blat, and their Manager, Miguel are all hardworking, friendly and patient. Juan in particular, always goes above and beyond ensuring quality drinks and service every time. Not only warm, friendly and patient but diligent in his work. My Hazelnut lattes are consistently YUMMY every time Juan makes it (Esme too). While the atmosphere has dwindled from the times I used to practically live there studying on spacious tables w/available electrical outlets, to tiny sparingly tables w/out access to outlets, it is the STAFF that makes this CBTL the BEST!! If you appreciate great customer service this is bar none the place to get your brew (coffee, tea) and yummy pastries and sandwiches.“

“The blackberry crunch toast was amazing. Great service, friendly staff & nice location.“

“wonderful staff delicious coffee“

“The Amsterdam Cucumber Mint Lemonade“

“One of my favorite restaurants ever. The meat was seasoned so expertly and was so tender. Mussel toast was INCREDIBLE. Their sourdough was out of this world. Staff was knowledgeable and guided us in trying many interesting wines. This place was amazing!“

“I just ordered for the first time today and I must say your food is fantastic! Generous portion with pickles and delicious soft boiled eggs, pickles, puréed fresh tomatoes and a small amount of hot sauce that isn’t too hot. Just right. Went to your place near corner of Van Nuys and Burbank. HIGHLY RECCOMENDED“

“This is a jewel of coffee. This is a Latino style coffee that I've never tasted anywhere in Los Angeles. Move over Starbucks. Today I walked in was greeted by some of the best customer service I was astonished by the kindness. I was amazed by the variety of Latin coffee. Tres leches. Horchata, chocolate Mexicano. Mexicana mocha. The combination of favorite style Mexican flavors blended with coffee. This is a must for every Mexican-American who's a coffee drinker.“

“Okay so this place is truly a Gem. I ordered the Jambon beurre and OMG so delicious. I got a whole sandwich which is totally worth the price, my picture only shows half because I inhaled the other half lol. Their baguettes are baked in house daily and it shows, they are crispy and just amazing. Got flash backs from Paris, they were that good!

I also got the pink latte but you can skip on that unless you need a mid-day pick me up. For me it was past noon so I probably should have gotten the lemonade instead. It messes up my sleep if I drink coffee past 12 pm.

Highly recommend this place it will HIT the spot! Staff were also friendly and made sure to verify my order. Great all around“

“This place is a vibe if there ever was one. Great place to work, ranging from comfortable seating to the fact it's open relatively late on weekdays. This spot tends to be fairly quiet inside (most people are working), but there's plenty of seating outside if you want to chat. The coffee selection is solid - you can't go wrong, but the lattes are especially legit. Go here!“

“Needed a quick afternoon pick me up, and found this gem. We also realized that we needed food before more caffeine, and their cheeseburger hand pie and hashbrown spam masubi were sooooo good. I had a classic vanilla late and my friend had the Thai tea coffee. Great find.

Dietary restrictions: Several dairy alternative options“

“First time here and the food is amazingly presented and so deliciously fresh. The prices are very reasonable as well and the service is excellent! I had the egg drop with bacon and cheese, their crispy crepe with Nutella bananas strawberries and whipped cream ?“

“First off, the menu was an embarrassment of riches. Even for my vegetarian wife who often struggles to find a lot of options, there were so many options we talked about coming again later today.

I got the rib eye chilaquiles. When it came I was a little disappointed because it was a steak and eggs with some chilaquiles on the side (I thought they'd be some crazy mixed up thing). After I started eating it, however, I decided they could of brought it in a bucket and made me eat it off the floor and I wouldn't have wanted to complain. The steak was cooked incredibly. So much flavor. And the incredibly non-descript eggs were somehow just tastier than normal eggs. I really don't know how they did it.

This is absolutely going to be our new main breakfast spot.“

“This is the best matcha in LA. I get a dirty matcha with oat milk and their homemade lavender syrup and it’s insane. They use ceremonial matcha too! The texture of the drink so so silky and amazing. A must try. Not expensive at all and you can get stamps to work towards a free drink! ?

It’s also a dream if a vibe in there.“

“Came here with a group of 5 and tasted the tofu donuts and the matcha soft serve!

Good:
- Tofu donut was super unique, I couldn't tell that it was tofu
- The soft serve was amazing- so creamy and not too sweet, and the serving size was large enough for 2 people to share or maybe even 3!

Bad:
- Long lines! Super popular place so you'll wait about 10 min for your order outside and there's limited seating

Overall this was a fun hole in the wall gem to find!“

“I got the Iced Strawberrry Matcha Latte the other day and I am blown away by the flavors! I had their Matcha Latte and I know that they use ceremonial grade matcha so I decided to give the strawberry matcha latte a try and what do you know, they just can't fail! Typically cafe's overpower the matcha flavor with strawberry flavoring but Yeem's rendition of this drink was a perfect blend between the two. I typically get their Vienna Black but after trying the Strawberry Matcha, it's going to be a harder time deciding what to get now!“

“Hot day. We had a relax time with amazing tea!!!“

“Republik Coffee is as solid as it gets. It has good food, good coffee, and a good ambiance, which makes it a great hang out spot.The breakfast burrito, an almond danish, and a hazelnut cappuccino. It's not a large breakfast burrito, but I felt like all off the ingredients were good quality. The danish was good,and the cappuccino was solid as well.“

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

“We loved our visit to Camel this morning. I’ve been out of the city for a while and I’m happy to see such a unique shop pop up. It reminded me of Star Wars inside ? obviously desert themed. Super sick. Love the seating upstairs. But most importantly the staff were very pleasant and the coffee was so good. I love when everything works in unison at a shop like that. Perfect americano. The pastries are great also.“

“This is the best coffee in LA, the shop is small and most of the time busy in the morning time
The coffee is amazing (specialty coffee)
I tried a lot in Los Angeles and this is the best
The shop is small and it is crowded in the morning.“

“Today I tried a new sandwich for me, the Italiano. I expected a good sandwich but was pleasantly impressed how yummy. Their coffees and teas I always enjoy.“

“The frappés are creamy, flavorful, and packed with boba goodness. Whether you prefer classic milk tea or fruit-infused concoctions, there's a flavor for everyone. The taiyaki – (fish-shaped treats) are crispy on the outside and filled with a warm, sweet filling. If you're craving a satisfying and delicious treat, give Boba Sound a shot.“

“The coffee and matcha here are consistently great, and I like the food I’ve tried, especially the kimchi fried rice. However, it's disappointing that everything comes in disposable packaging and in a bag, even for dine-in. Offering more reusable mugs and utensils would make the experience more sustainable and (then) enjoyable! I feel bad ordering food here knowing it won’t be on a reusable plate.“

“After eating a delicious spicy chicken sandwich from Chimmelier down the street on one of the hottest days in Los Angeles, a Blackberry Lemonade from Frank Coffee was deliverance! A very refreshing drink! The staff there was very friendly! 10/10!“

“MAKISUPA (est 2024) is Silver Lake's brand new coffee bar located right across the street from Blair's restaurant and adjacent to Camelot School. Their indoor has an atrium-style seating area where staff serve coffee drinks. Its tranquil atmosphere definitely attenuates the stress in your work. It’s my first time here and ordered a Cold Brew. It was perfectly made to my liking.

Service was on point and staff was nice and competent. Prices were very competitive. They are open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., and weekends from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. There is a free parking behind the building and surrounding neighborhood.

Overall, I had a good experience and I recommend this coffee bar. I’ll definitely come back.“

“Service is ok. Taiwanese food here is pretty good, we ordered few dishes, even though they are not spicy but they had good flavors. The place is super busy and we had to wait in line for almost an hour. But still recommend this place due to great food.“

“I stopped in to try the coffee and check out the shop. The coffee itself was good and they had some decent food options. The atmosphere is nice, nothing too over the top. Lot of folks on their laptops, but not overly crowded. The employees were super friendly and courteous.

Overall a good experience.“

“From cocktails (vesper), to Hummus ful, lobster with lime, wood-fire shawarma, red snapper ravine, bergamot chocolate cake, and soft serve ice cream- it was all delicious!!“

“Magnificent, we came on the advice of a friend and we are not disappointed, a little piece of France 10,000 km away during our stay in Los Angeles, the croissants and pain au chocolat are exquisite, I didn't even didn't have time to take a decent photo so we rushed to take a bite of it! In short, I recommend it to everyone, a must-have for delicious croissants or pain chocolat!!! They also make sandwiches and other pastries that we haven't tried but we'll definitely come back!
You can have a coffee on the terrace or to take away, perfect service!“

“CAFE NIDO is a cute and trendy coffee bar tucked in an alleyway on Hyperion avenue in Silver Lake. They have a modest selection of coffee (hot/cold), teas, pastries and sandwiches. Moreover, their huge open indoor/outdoor space surrounded by trees provides an oasis like atmosphere for customers. Thereby, an ideal spot to read a book while sipping your coffee.

Furthermore, this coffee shop has a mini trailer parked full of used books and customers can rent a book for free while they sip their coffee/tea. Anyway, I came on a hot Summer day and ordered a Cold Brew (16oz). It was smooth, refreshing and average in taste. (p.s. I spilled my first drink while I was stirring it; cute female server made me a new one-for free! ;D) I was a lil embarrassed but luckily customers were too preoccupied with their books and laptops. I’m a figure of fascination, something between sympathy and schadenfreude.

Service was on point. Female white Staff was affable and professional. Prices seem a tad pricey and yet reasonable. Nido’s Parking situation was atrocious due to extremely limited space. However, plenty of street metered parking.

Overall, I liked their Cold Brew and atmosphere.“

“Our new breakfast spot! This place is a vibe in decor/music and is dog friendly. They have a small menu of sandwiches, omelets, crepes and my favorite, their parfait. Coffees are made to perfection with many flavors offered. Serving sizes are reasonable and everything is delicious and presented beautifully, even artfully. Staff are mellow and kind and create a welcoming vibe. 10/10“

“This is such a cool coffee shop. It’s very aesthetic and the drinks are incredible. The staff are very friendly. Once I came in here and I was having a bad day. I was chatting with the barista with the leopard print hair about seeing famous people around LA, including at Jurassic magic but not that day. And he said “well you’re a celebrity here” and it was just so kind. I haven’t forgotten it. And I can’t emphasize how much I love the coffee and I’m pretty picky.“

“I loved the citrus tea.. it was delicious.“

“Vibes are sooooo on point. Each seating area provides a different experience, a different function. The decor comes together so well, especially with how each area in the space has something unique to offer.
For food and drinks, we had a hojicha JBS, a mocha, and a matcha donut. The hojicha was good but the mocha was gross. Too acidic with no mocha flavor to it. The matcha donut was tasty. It’s not a normal donut; it’s spongy and a tiny bit dense at the center.“

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

“Fantastic acai bowl. Finding a good acai is harder than you think and this is amazing. Wow!
Also what a great menu. The pandan matcha latte? The purple lemonade thing with yuzu? Creative and colorful space.

Get a pastry because they're delish too!“

“Funky place with nice inside and outside quiet nooks to sit and talk without screaming even if crowded. Interesting variety of home made like food, with a large variety of hot and cold drinks. For lunch brunch and breakfast. Never been there for dinner.“

“got the matcha einspanner one with regular milk and one with oat! the oat is definitely better because you can taste the matcha more. Definitely would come again for this drink; so creamy and perfect enough to satisfy a matcha craving.
Only downside would be the extremely tight parking and crowded atmosphere inside the cafe when there’s a rush. Other than that staff was extremely friendly and patient too!“

“friendly staff- awesome coffee - great hangout“

“Congratulations on 10 years!“

“I love coming here! They have amazing coffee and can prettyuch make anything you want. The amazing baristas are all excellent at what they do. the atmosphere is so elegant and relaxing you just feel at home when you are there. I try to go here a few times a week. it's my new favorite coffee place in Burbank“

“Our morning ritual used to involve bludgeoning ourselves into a semblance of consciousness with the heavy-hand of a generic dark roast. It was an effective if inelegant solution to parenthood. Aqaurela's beans provide a different experience. We are by no means coffee experts, but my wife and I were surprised by the nuances in smell and taste when we tried their Deus Me Livre for our morning espresso. It's a lighter feel; almost refreshing. The morning cup feels a bit indulgent, yet not so rich as to make your mouth feel overwhelmed. We could see this pairing very well as an after-dinner treat with any manner of desserts. The best part is that this is simply a fantastic company to work with. Quick, fast delivery. Prompt follow-up to make sure we were completely satisfied. And all questions answered - when we noted that we typically prefer darker roasts, one of the owners explained that their goal was to make a medium-roast whose flavors would still hold up to a coordination with cream and sugar. It's a throwback to days where customer service and the personal touch were still important. This is a small business whose goal of promoting independent farmers is admirable and worthy of our support. Thank you!“

“Fantastic coffee. espresso or drip, they know exactly what they are doing“
