50 Best Coffee Shops near Toluca Lake

“I came here for gelato, and it was absolutely delicious! Both the sugar cone and the cup were excellent. The strawberry flavor is my favorite, and it was simply perfect. We also brought our little dog with us, and she was welcomed so warmly and received lots of attention. We’re so happy we found this place. The atmosphere is beautiful, clean, and thoughtfully maintained down to every detail. I highly recommend it if you’re looking for a delicious afternoon treat.“

“Far too packed inside, makes for an extraordinarily loud and less than pleasant dinning experience. Better to eat on the patio, not on the street. The food portions are a little lackluster but the options are expensive. Get water and your drink for there are too few servers to attend to timely refills. This is the type of place you would expect to have carafes of juice and personal pots of coffee but nah, cant be bothered. Cocktails are whats on one of the two menus, so that accounts for part of the noise, too.“

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

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

“I am from Florida. We are staying near Universal Studios… The quality of coffee is incredible… The staff is funny and a lot of fun… The speed of service also incredible thank you so much. Came in at just the right time on a Thursday got a four dollar Frappuccino… I have told everybody at the hotel…“

“wonderful staff delicious coffee“

“Jurassic Magic is easily one of the coolest finds in LA. the name makes it sound like a theme park gift shop, but it's actually this incredibly chilled-out, artsy sanctuary. I spent the afternoon on their back patio--it's like a secret garden filled with tropical plants and mid-century vibes. I tried the 'magic latte', and the spice blend is genuinely unique; it's warm and comforting without being too sweet. you can tell they really care about the craft, from the live-whisked matcha to the fact that they roast their own beans. it's the perfect 'third place' to just exist for a while, whether you're catching up on work or just hiding from the city noise. Definitely a must-visit if you appreciate good design and creative 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.“

“**A sweet slice of heaven in Santa Monica!** Junior Cookies is an absolute *gem*. I came in for the cookies (which are AMAZING – warm, gooey, and perfectly crisp on the edges), but I stayed for the whole vibe. Their ice cream is ultra creamy with rich, dreamy flavors that pair perfectly with the cookies—highly recommend making your own cookie cream with ice cream with cookies! I was also pleasantly surprised by how good their coffee is. It’s bold, smooth, and just what I needed to balance out the sugar rush. Honestly, it’s rare to find a cookie shop where the coffee actually stands out, but Junior Cookies gets it right. Best coffee, best cookies, best matcha, and best ice cream in la! The place is super cute inside, with a cozy neighborhood feel and friendly staff who seem genuinely happy to be there. You can tell everything is made with love. The cookies and recipes are unique. 5 star bakery in LA. If you're in Santa Monica, **don’t miss this spot**. Whether you’re craving dessert, a caffeine fix, or just want to treat yourself, Junior Cookies delivers!“

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

“Great food and cocktails!! 🍸“

“This place just feels like a warm hug. The interior is filled with lush plants, mismatched vintage furniture, and a very welcoming atmosphere. I tried their signature lavender honey latte and it wasn't overly sweet, just right. The baristas are super friendly and remember the regulars. It's the perfect spot to curl up with a good book on a rainy afternoon“

“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.“

“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“

“Love this place! Everyone who works there is so friendly. The lattes are great and they carry Out of Thin Air pastries. The beautiful flower arrangements available for purchase are a bonus. I don’t know much about ice cube variants, but something about the shape and size of their ice cubes are perfect? Parking in the lot can be tough if you aren’t there early but there is usually something available on the street.“

“Phenomenal service and amazing Gelato in the Italian style from Argentina 🇦🇷. Very friendly and welcoming. Lots of places to sit, work, visit. They've even got a back patio with gorgeous umbrellas. Great wifi and also coffee options. Support local and come enjoy some of the best coffee and dessert in LA“

“Love this place, staff is friendly and owners too. coffee is great and I'm very picky about coffee! free Wi-Fi is nice too!“

“The Amsterdam Cucumber Mint Lemonade“

“One of my favorite coffee spots in LA. They have great tasting espresso that really comes through in their latte. The shop is cute, stocked with knick-knacks and treats, and the baristas are friendly. I hardly ever have an issue finding convenient parking.“

“whenever someone visiting asks me where a good matcha place is, i always recommend tea master! i love all of their matcha offerings, and i especially love coming here for dessert after a meal and getting the matcha soft serve. service is friendly and efficient.“

“Excellent baguettes. We tried the full-size omelette sandwich - a generously portioned, perfectly prepared soft French omelette in a crusty baguette. Superb. Almond and chocolate croissants were also very good.

It's counter service, right on the sidewalk of busy Melrose Ave. No seating other than a bench and a couple of stools to use while you wait for your freshly prepared order.

Parking can be a challenge. We snagged a street spot on Harvard. There's a park nearby with benches and shade if you want somewhere to eat your treats.“

“Always a flawless experience here; the service, food and coffee never disappoint. I tried the breakfast burrito with Beyond sausage this time, and it was incredible. Super flavorful, perfectly filling, and left me feeling energized instead of weighed down. I love seeing high-quality plant-based options on the menu!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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! ❤️❤️❤️“

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

“New favorite coffee shop alert 😍 absolutely loved this place. The sugar cookie cream top latte half sweet was PERFECT! Dream latte. Also their almond milk is so delicious. Very nutty. And their breakfast burrito was absolutely perfect.
On top of it, the staff was super friendly which is always an additional star. Definitely will be back.“

“Best bakery...love their pastries.“

“While traveling in LA, I accidentally discovered a wonderful cafe. Despite the early morning rain, people were lining up outside. (Small space to wait inside)The menu featured several unique drinks not found in typical coffee shops, and they tasted incredible.

Learning that it was a Korean brand made me feel quite proud, and I was delighted to find out they also have a location in New York where I live. I purchased a bag of coffee beans, which came in beautifully designed packaging. I fully intend to visit the New York branch soon. Overall, it was a thoroughly enjoyable visit.“

“Our favorite neighborhood place for delicious organic coffee and tea. Love the owner and her staff. Highly recommend“

“Great coffee, great service. A uniquely shaped, cosy two storey cafe. A sitting area on the second floor. There are also a couple of benches outside at the side of the cafe.

Had their signature coffee. Highly recommend.

Street parking.“

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

“Great service , great ambience, great margarita drinks overall, an awesome place with outdoor patio. Just beautiful.“

“I have a business nearby, so I come to Pura Vida Beverly Hills often for lunch, coffee, and sometimes breakfast. Their All Green Smoothie is absolutely bombastic—my favorite! The food is always incredibly fresh, the coffee is great, and the croissants are delicious.

The service is consistently 10/10, and the whole place has a fun vacation vibe that makes every visit enjoyable. If you’re in Beverly Hills and looking for a healthy, fresh meal or a great coffee, I definitely recommend stopping by!“

“Best bagel in Los Angeles! So excited to see expansion into Calabasas. Love your food!“

“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.“

“The breakfast / brunch menu has a good concept and good options. The merguez sandwich was good, but too oily. The fries were done well but too salty.

I wish they cooked the food with less oil and salt. Maybe I'll request that if I stop by to eat there again.“

“The best hot chocolate I’ve ever had in my life! It tasted like I was drinking a beautifully rich, comforting chocolate. Sweet enough but not so sweet. Real chocolate. My God I didn’t know this way of drinking hot chocolate existed!“

“I genuinely love this place the atmosphere, the energy, and especially the fresh juices they serve. Everything tastes authentic, from the food to the drinks, and you can tell they really care about quality.

It’s the kind of spot you keep coming back to, whether you’re grabbing a quick coffee or sitting down to relax. Highly recommend checking it out if you appreciate great flavors and a welcoming vibe.“

“I tried something different and tried Hukuju and literally love at first sip. I love that they didn’t pre-sweeten the Matcha. Honestly, I think they really tried to serve matcha as authentically and best possible. The nutty, velvety, cocoa notes were spot on. And it was just so lovely yapping for a couple hours while sipping this drink. And surprisingly, I enjoyed it even more the cooler it got. Warm and room temp with a splash of honey is the way to go.

I also tried their Uji Homare and it was a much more familiar flavor profile to what I was used to but without bitter aftertaste. Just really good flavor

The taste and vibes were immaculate. The staff were kind and very knowledgeable. I learned a lot about Matcha talking with the manager especially about their cast iron low boiler.

Unfortunately, the smallest bag of Hukuju was 100mg and I wasn’t ready to drop $70 like that. But luckily they have a similar product in a smaller tin that I was more than happy to take home with me“

“I've been wanting to visit Pam's Coffy for a long time, and I'm so glad I finally had the chance.

At first glance, the whole place feels very Tarantino. Colorful, vintage, obscure movie posters, CRT TVs playing VHSs, and about 50 empty cereal boxes.

The menu leans into that cereal sugary sweetness. We got the banana pudding latte and the captain crunch latte. They were delicious, but definitely more like desserts. On the way out, though, I grabbed a drip coffee, which they keep ready in old-fashioned diner style Bunn carafes, another fitting touch.

The pastry was pretty good, and you can also get bowls of Captain Crunch which is super fun.

If you're a Tarantino fan, or even if you're not and you like dessert-y coffee, er, Coffy - give this place a shot. You'll have a good time.“

“This restaurant is amazing and I cannot wait to come back. Perfect spot for dates and seeing friends while enjoying incredible izakaya cuisine. Our server, Allison, was very insightful about the menu and made sure our experience was lovely & very delicious.“

“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 💋“

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

“Lovely family business. Great food & drinks, easy parking, inside & outside seating, affordable prices & totally relaxed & comfy athmosfere!“

“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!“

“엘에이에 가면 커피마시러 가장 먼저 가보고 싶은 곳 💕💕💕“

“I got lunch delivered from them for the first time today and it was absolutely amazing. I wanted to try the brisket, but they were out so I ended up with the steak sandwich and they were really apologetic and nice about it and even tossed in some extra freebies in my bag. I can’t speak to the atmosphere since I was not there, but the food was so good. I will definitely be visiting in person soon.“

“the option of pistachio milk. the pastries are fantastic.“

“The most important element to me when reviewing a coffee shop is the coffee. Good Intentions serves up 5-star coffee drinks. The first sip gave me that wow feeling and brought a smile to my face. The service was courteous and a peaceful. The atmosphere was bright and what you’d expect at a small coffee shop. It’s definitely a spot to put it on your coffee shop rotation list.“
