50 Best Coffee Shops near Vernon

“The main entrance is closed. You need to use the intercom on the left side of the door to open it. After entering, park your truck. You'll see signs for the receiving and shipping offices. Go inside and sign in - the staff will assign you a dock number. If your dock number is 19-22, drive in according to the directions in the picture. The road around the entire building is one-way. If you have a 53-foot semi-trailer, the space for backing in at docks 19-22 isn't very big. It's easier if there are no other vehicles on either side though. Good luck - unloading should be pretty quick“

“Starbucks feels like an oasis in the industrial warehouse area of Vernon, conveniently located on Soto Street.

The store is clean, and there is plenty of free outdoor parking available. There are also many EV chargers nearby, making it a convenient stop for electric vehicle charging while enjoying coffee or taking a short break.

Overall, a comfortable and practical Starbucks location in an unexpected area.“

“Under new management but the food quality still seems great. Expect a decent wait as they get slammed with catering orders around lunch time and it can take a bit to make your food. Parking is terrible in this lot but you can usually find a spot.“

“The Trucker app said it was overnight parking was aloud but then there’s a little sign that says Towing after one hour.“

“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“

“wonderful staff delicious coffee“

“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.“

“my new favorite coffee shop!! the baristas were sooo friendly as soon as i walked in and the ambiance was to die for. i came for the first time with a friend of mine; both of us also work in coffee and we were so impressed! awesome pastry selection too, can’t wait to come back :)“

“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!“

“really great Thanks a lot and very nice team ❤️“

“Highlight Coffee Shop in Glendale, CA is a true gem for coffee lovers. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that sets the perfect tone for a cozy coffee experience.“

“Great food and cocktails!! 🍸“

“Highly recommend! The gluten free everything bagel was quite good, not rubbery like a lot of GF bagels. I sat at the bar and the servers were very nice and friendly. Food came in less than 10 minutes despite the whole place being pretty full. You can buy tubs of cream cheese to go and they have a small area of cute things to buy like hats, coloring books, some plates, condiments etc. Make sure you go to the pickle themed bathroom!“

“Bloom is my favorite coffee spot in LA. I remember visiting them when they first open and the atmosphere was incredibly chill and loving. On top of that their coffee’s, matcha’s and specialty drinks are really really good. Id say one of the top matcha’s ive had in LA. The shop is beautiful. Filled with flowers and cool merch. I always recommend my friends to bloom and everytime we go, its always an incredible experience. I love them.“

“I love coming here for their “sticky situation” matcha. It’s delicious.

Apart from the great drinks, the atmosphere is so lovely and the playlist is always 🔥. I love coming here to work because the music isn’t too loud, you can take meetings, and the Harun team don’t mind if you stay for a while.“

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

“Love this place!
It’s immaculately clean and the food is first rate.
Whether you want something sweet or savory, you’ll not be disappointed.
If you’re looking for a meal that is different from the every day fare at most restaurants, you really should stop here.
The presentation is top notch, too… The meals are as beautiful to look at as they are delicious
Great coffee, too.
Service is kinda slow, but that’s really the only thing that’s off the mark.
The owner lady at the counter is welcoming and sweet.“

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

“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.“

“Excellent coffee and food. A really welcoming atmosphere too!“

“The Amsterdam Cucumber Mint Lemonade“

“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!“

“Congratulations on 10 years!“

“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 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!“

“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.“

“Coffee was great! Staff was friendly and helpful. Atmosphere was fun, sharp, and clean. What they offer in terms of beans was pretty remarkable. Options from all over the world. Staff helped me navigate to some of the best options for the profile I was looking for. When I was in Switzerland and the barista found out I lived in the US l, he said, “Ooh, you guys have Kumquat!” Pretty high praise to immediately highlight it that way.“

“friendly staff- awesome coffee - great hangout“

“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.“

“If you’re a coffee lover, definitely give this place a try.
They really know how to brew specialty coffee right. This is the kind of coffee you should be able to drink completely plain and still enjoy. It’s not too bold, not bitter, and you can actually notice different layers of flavor in the cup.
I know there are other places in LA doing this style of coffee, but in my opinion Intelligensia is by far the best one.“

“Friend found this Taiwanese food spot near the Convention Center, which worked out for a quick dinner before the KCON concert. Not quite your usual Taiwanese comfort food restaurant, but food-wise, it's close enough. I do see this being a convenient and nice dining location for those living in downtown LA.

So you order and pay first, and then take your number to a seat of your choice. Other than your food being brought to you, everything else is self-serve, from picking out your table, getting cutlery and water, etc. You also might want to have your party all here if you want to sit together to eat. Our other half of the group was still on their way, so my friend and I just ordered first and dined at a table for two.

I picked their minced pork on rice ($12) and passion fruit tea ($4.25 with no refills). My friend ordered the wonton noodle soup and I got to try some of hers. I liked what we both ordered and can confirm it's worth ordering again.

I walked over from the convention center so not quite sure on the parking options, other than street parking and the random parking lot / structure you'll find around DTLA.“

“Great coffee and the decor is amazing. ⭐️ 🌟 ⭐️“

“This is hands down my favorite coffee spot in the city. The atmosphere is incredibly warm and inviting—perfect whether you need to get some work done or just want to relax with a good book. Their lattes are consistently smooth and perfectly balanced, and you can tell they truly care about the quality of their beans. The baristas are always smiling and genuinely friendly, which makes every visit a great experience. Highly recommend pairing your coffee with their fresh almond croissants. I can't wait to come back!“

“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“

“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.“

“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! ❤️❤️❤️“

“Great place if you have a dog. Very relaxing backyard. Extremely zen. Don't even know what zen means but I know it's a good thing.“

“Such a sweet and kind establishment“

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

“Great food and so friendly service.“

“*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.“

“Found this spot unexpectedly and so far so good. I’ve had the banana latte, pistachio latte and have tasted the hazel coconut latte as well. All really delicious. The staff is friendly and the service is fast. The shop itself is super chill and quiet. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a place to get some work done without loud distraction. Love the jazz music they play. Pull up! 🙏🏻🤍“

“Best bakery...love their pastries.“

“Best coffee“

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

“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.“
