A friend told me the coffee cake here would take me back to that classic LAUSD coffee cake, so I had to come taste for myself * Vibe: Chill café with a relaxed atmosphere. A few people were on their laptops. * What we ordered: * Nutty Professor - 10/10 * Spanish Latte - 10/10 * Abuelita Cold Brew - taste like abuelitas chocolate * Coffee Cake - nostalgic and delicious Overall: Great drinks, great vibes, and that coffee cake alone is worth the visit. Definitely coming back. read more

Cafe Calle - Barista station - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Absolutely loved this local spot. I'm trying to take full advantage of the season so I tried the hot pumpkin matcha. It was a perfect blend of pumpkin and matcha, with a lovely level of sweetness. I also had the turkey croissant sandwich and added egg and avocado. The croissant was toasted and flaky and everything tasted great. I got a banana nut muffin for later and my goodness! That muffin was so good, so moist, probably one of the best I've had. I had to come back later in the week for another one. It gave me the opportunity to try the pumpkin coffee cake, and once again, fire. The staff were so friendly, I was able to ask questions and recommendations. The place is great to get work done or meet for a chat. There's cool artwork, local resources and items, and even a printer. Definitely will be back for more. read more

Dang I forgot to mention. They have a little bookshelf and local stuff from artists and what not and they have a printer too! Man can't tell you the struggle when you can't afford a printer that's super helpful. Oh and the turkey croissant was bomb and I don't even like croissants. read more

Skipped Starbucks to support this local latino owned business. Ordered the Abuelita Cold Brew and was blown away. Cold brew is mixed with abuelita chocolate powder and lightly topped with cinnamon. Pretty sure this is my new go to drink. I came back today & was a bit disappointed. Trying the Pistachio Latte with regular milk. I could tell I wasn't going to like it just from looking at it. The balance of milk and matcha was completely off. Felt like I ordered a cup of milk with a hint of matcha. The pistachio flavoring was there though. Just wish the milk wasn't so overpowering. Tried their Jalapeño bagel with cream cheese. 10/10. Simple and delicious Baristas were friendly and sweet. Shop itself is small but with ambient seating for those that was to read or a book or work on their laptops. Overall adorable spot. read more

Randomly chose this place from a list Google Maps provided along my morning commute. Cozy space. The guy that took my order was super nice. I was pleasantly surprised to see the small nook for reading and ample places to eat and work. The window stations all had outlets and there was even a printer! I ordered the lox bagel with egg and a hot pistachio latte. The latte was unexpected. I read pistachio/raspberry, but didn't expect to taste pieces of pistachio and raspberries. I liked it! Keep this in mind for those of you that don't like texture. Carefully read the description or ask ahead of time. Look at my bagel sandwich. It was so thoughtfully made. It made me excited to eat it and it was pretty tasty too. I prefer my bagels a little more toasted, but that's no fault of theirs. I will definitely come back anytime. I get a chance to taste some of their other drinks and try their oatmeal. What would have made this visit perfect is if they had some background music playing. It was just..different to be in a coffee space just hearing sounds of the fridge, AC, feel shuffling and general operations.. hehe. Great for studying I guess. Parking can be a bit of a hassle. I thankfully found a parking spot in a retail center. read more

This little mom and pop shop is so chill and feels so authentic to the community it services. From the Spanish inspired drinks with horchata or being named abuelita's hot mocha to all the local business merch and the art work in the establishment, it feels less like a business and more like a place to gather, work or just chill for a nice Sunday morning which I did. My gf loves their white chocolate raspberry mocha with cold foam so she is ecstatic they brought it back and I tried the pistachio matcha. Both were iced and pretty good in flavor and the pistachio matcha had little pieces of toasted pistachio which was a nice little add for texture and taste. I have been here before and got their wraps which are pretty good and light. I feel like they are relatively fast at serving too. I do plan to come back and check out their other flavored drinks and pastries - both seasonal and staples on the menu read more

This spot is truly a diamond in the rough. Can be easily missed but worth the search! They have a great variety of drinks and food at a great price. Crazy to think that the small mom and pop shop could be better priced and tasting than your big chain Starbucks and Coffee Bean. The owner Diana is very kind and wanting to make a difference in a community. If you are in the area or simply passing by come on through I promise you won't be disappointed! Parking - can be a little tricky depending on the time. There is a small parking lot across the street on 33rd street. read more

An awesome cafe about a mile east of Exposition Park. CAFE CALLE is located on the bottom level of a residential building (apartment complex). Aside from the street parking, there is a small parking lot available for customers of the retail stores on the ground level. There is indoor seating with tables ( a couple of people were here for meetings). No outdoor seating. Their CORTADO is done well. Their AVOCADO TOAST is full of flavor. Very Good!!! Every bite is flavored/seasoned. Nobody rushed me and my companion out. Looks like the cafe has a great relationship with members of the community -- residents and community partners. read more

I love to support local coffee shops and was so excited to find Cafe Calle! Street parking was pretty easy and I stopped in for a latte. It was lovely inside with lots of different seating options for work or chill. I ordered a hot oatmilk latte and the barista made a cold one, but very quickly replaced it with a hot one for me! She was very sweet. The community at the coffee shop was great too! They said they do art and bring supplies for people (I believe Wednesdays? 3-5). read more

I found this amazing coffee shop while I was in LA. The service was excellent. I like my coffee very hot, and when I mentioned it, they kindly offered to make me a new one if it wasn't hot enough -- great customer service. The pistachio matcha was absolutely delicious.

I came across this café in an article! I wanted to try their pistachio Matcha! I was very intrigued with the crunchy caramelized pistachio in the drink! It definitely was really that it could have been richer in the Matcha flavor, but definitely worth trying! This place is very cute! The owner/staff were super friendly and there is a lot of seatings. I see a lot of people doing their work here, but also catching up! I also saw that there was a lot of books and games! read more

I came here during my lunch break, first of all when you enter it feels very homey. The place has a culture inside, from snacks to homemade artisanal items such candles, floral bookmarks and more. I love the cultural incorporation. Now to the menu, I ordered their chicken pita wrap which 5/5, I wish it was bigger, that's how good it was. Adding a Hispanic twist by adding queso fresco which was a first to me. I've had other chicken pita wraps: the traditional way, tortilla wrap, and sandwich way. I have to say that their way is amazing, toasted pita bread with rotisserie chicken, pesto, lettuce and queso fresco in the form of a taco. Will definitely come back to try other food items and drink items read more

Baristas are sweet & the drinks are good. Street parking if you can. Indoor seating with plenty of outlets. I'll definitely be back here. Abuelita cold brew - this tasted more like a mocha but idgaf about a name because it was phenomenal. Best variation of a cold brew/mocha I've ever had probably. Not too sweet. Good flavor. Super caffeinated. Made quickly. Love it read more

Stopped by this little café off Central Ave today and was blown away by the quality of both their coffee and pastries. I ordered the Spanish Latte, which I loved for its perfect balance--not too sweet, just right. To go with it, I had the Pistachio Croissant, and honestly, it was one of the best things I've tried in a long time. Flaky, rich, and full of flavor. I'd drive across town in traffic just to have it again. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to! read more

This restaurant is cute with lovely vibes. The service was good with nice staff. They have cute handmade items for sale from local small business vendors. I was interested in a candle. It was very small and smelled amazing but it was $20. Even though I like to support small business...$20 for a tiny candle that fit in my palm made me wince . I ordered a coffee, a muffin, a coffee cake, the Mediterranean chicken pita sandwich and a jalapeño cream cheese bagel. Honest review is all of the food items, including the coffee, were just ok. My flavored ice coffee wasn't very flavorful. The chicken pits was kind of skimpy and really dry with too much feta that overpowered. The coffee cake wasn't very good. The muffin was also just okay. The jalapeño bagel was also alright. This is a lovely place to meet up, get some work or homework done, for sure. It's clean and welcoming. However, it's not a go-to for me regarding food destination. Prices were elevated for what was served in my opinion. But yeah! To chill, have a little munch on something, it's alright. read more

A very comfortable & inviting coffee shop serving up solid coffee & tasty pastries. A gift card from a friend brought me here. The food menu looked great (I had my eye on the pita wrap, next visit it's mine) the barista was very helpful, music selection was perfect. I stopped by around 2pm on a Friday, a few people working, cute Abuelas knitting. I ordered the Abuelita cold brew 5/5 a perfect amount of sweetness, strong cold brew, I loved this drink! I also ordered the churro croissant warmed up it was honestly heaven! Another 5/5. I was happy to hear that the croissant was from Homeboy Industries, local supporting local will always have my business! I had to purchase the salsa in the small fridge it looked too good to pass up, tasted excellent on eggs the next morning. If I am ever in the area I will surely pay another visit to this establishment, cheers friends! read more

I'll always and forever support my community first. Let me give this place their flowers for providing a space for the people from the people. The girls out front are sweet, dig that. I must say that the drinks for me are always bland.I've been here 3x and it's one of those things where I rather give my money to y'all than to a YT hipsters spot. Every time I come I hope for a better drink experience, but it doesn't add up. It saddens me because I want to like it but I can't. That's my only complain. Again, it might be a "me thing" but who knows. Please come and support and be the judge read more

The matcha is so good and the workers are so kind. I love the environment of the cafe great place to study.

I tried the espresso bubbly, and it was definitely something different! I love the creativity behind it. it's very innovative. The ladies at the bar were super friendly, which added to the experience. The shop also has a lot of cool, random little things like stickers and merch that are super cute. Prices were reasonable too, which is always a plus. The only downside is that there's no parking available, at least none that I noticed. But it's a cute little coffee shop for the community, by the community, and it really feels like that. While the beans weren't exactly to my liking (I can pick up on roast profiles pretty well), I think that's just personal preference. I'd definitely come back for a milk-based drink next time! read more

a nice spot for a quick bite or that caffeine boost if there's adequate space to do some work or a hangout. The drinks are good and certainly the specials are inviting; the matcha lemonade though was a little too tart for me. The staff is also very friendly and very efficient as I was in and out in less than five minutes and it wasn't even a busy hour. It was bit loud at that time though so I'm not sure how well that would be for work, but personally I just plug my AirPods in so that's a nonissue for me. read more

Great ambiance, wonderful service, food didn't quite hit the mark. The interior, with its rich color and art, is so inviting and welcoming. It's not the largest space, but reasonable for study sessions and small meals. Drinks are served in a glass unless you ask for a to-go. We opted for Iced Lattes with Oat Milk, one with Lavender and the other with Vanilla. Quite refreshing and delicious! As for food, we got the Avocado Toast with an Egg added. No seasoning on the egg, and the toast wasn't too toasty. We waited quite a bit for the toast, so that was a bit disappointing. I would come back for the coffee, but maybe try something else for food. Street parking was my best bet on a weekend morning. read more

I stopped this wonderful family run business named Cafe Calle while on a food crawl. We had a chance to learn the history behind the cafe from the owner herself. She told us the beautiful story of how the cafe came to fruition along with her community effort to help other small businesses. Now to the drink. I ordered the golden milk with a shot of espresso, I also added vanilla, the drink was delicious. Everyone in our party enjoyed their drinks. You can stop by this Café on any given day and you may see a band playing, someone outside selling food, clothes or Plants. It's definitely a community environment here and I applaud the owner for taking this initiative to help others. You should definitely stop by this hidden gem. read more

Great coffee and food, highly recommend their croissant sandwich. The coffee shop is so cozy great to get some study time in

What a little gem. This place has so much appeal. It has the mom and Pop feel but also lot of the extra stuff that you might not think would be there. Wi-Fi, lots of outlets to plug-in your computer, and as a bonus they even have a printer if you really need it. I went for the Spanish latte and not disappoint. Also had the avocado toast. The vibe was relaxing. There was some background music but it was also quiet enough that you didn't feel disrupted. Appreciated that there was a decent amount of seating in there. And the staff was super nice. Will definitely make this a spot when I'm on the side of town. read more
