Great knowledgeable friendly staff! I'm sure the black sesame is the most popular but I went with Honey ginger latte as the was the staffs second recommendation. It was very good! I loved how much cinnamon it had. It looks like a good place to work too. Ample parking. The bathroom could use a little more cleaning. It needs a deep clean. read more

Loved the vibe here. So relaxing and a perfect place to either work, study or just chill. The cashier was really nice and helpful. The menu is pretty straightforward. We got the Matcha Mochi Latte and Watermelon Slush. The Matcha Mochi Latte was such a cool concept and the drink itself was good. The Watermelon Slush was refreshing and good. I might go back to try other drinks and their food menu (their croffle looks good)! P.S. They have a very small parking lot with, I believe, 3-4 parking spots. You can park on the street or park at Vons and walk for a little bit. read more

I am an OG fan of this place. From Ktown to East Hollywood, my entire family is a fan. When people are visiting from out of town, I bring them here. Everyone finds something they like. The baristas are always kind and courteous. Recipes are freshly and consistently made every time bc they weigh everything. There can be a bit of a wait because they will make the cream tops and everything to order. It's fresh, delicious, and actually has some nutritional value (grains and seeds). I personally love the Black Sesame Mochi Latte w/ espresso (less sweet). My bestie loves the Strawberry Injeolmi Mochi Latte, and partner man loves the Matcha Mochi Latte. It's worth the wait. This location is relatively small, so limited indoor seating but they have a long bench outside with umbrellas. It is accessible, and there is limited parking. read more

I stumbled upon Cafe de Mama by accident and it instantly became one of my favorite spots. The drinks are delicious, and their mochi is incredibly soft - perfect for dipping into your latte or eating alone! The matcha latte is sweet and creamy which is perfect for my sweet tooth. I also tried the black sesame mochi latte, which was rich and thick - hard to drink in one sitting, but a delicious drink as well. The store itself is super cute, with a few indoor seats and some outdoor tables and chairs that are shaded as well. Definitely would be a good spot to meet up with friends or get some work done! Service does take a bit, especially if you order multiple drinks, but they work hard in the back! They're always kind and I love coming back. I know I'll be coming here often! read more

I have passed by here so many times and it always looked interesting to me. (Also because I've seen this place go through several businesses throughout the years). There's a free parking lot which is a huge plus!! The interior is clean and simple. I had the black sesame cream latte which had a nice caffeine kick. I've also been into black sesame at the moment so this hit the spot. I have to come back and try their mochi drinks. They are cashless! read more

Great customer service, clean, has parking, WiFi and outlets, and fairly priced. Newly opened so not as popular...yet. Got a black sesame latte and it was overall good. I was worried it'd be sweet, but it was not! Pretty mild. It does get watered down so I think it should be drank quick otherwise it'll not be good. read more

Cafe De Mama - Black Sesame Cream Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Cafe de Mama opened up in the former Boo's Philly Cheesesteaks location, and I was curious to see how the location would fare as a cafe. It's right on the corner of Virgil and Fountain Avenue, and they have added an outdoor patio area along with their limited indoor seating. They offer a variety of matcha and espresso-based drinks (though they only offer lattes if you are looking for espresso and milk combinations). While I have not tried them yet, they also offer croissant waffles (croffles) in both sweet and savory variations. I tried their black sesame cream latte, which had that nutty flavor that you would expect in a way that felt balanced by the other drink components. I've also had their matcha latte, which I thought was solid. I'm curious to try more of their menu on a future visit! read more

Finally got a chance to try Cafe De Mama's new location in East Hollywood! It's such a cute and cozy spot with a few tables and a spacious outdoor patio. They have a small parking lot that can fit 3 cars or so, but there's plenty of street parking in the nearby area. I ordered the green forest mochi latte which is a mugwort cream on matcha milk with 3 pieces of mochi. The mugwort cream is absolutely delicious and so earthy and creamy, and you can dip the mochi in the cream which is a fun touch. Overall such a delicious and unique drink! read more

All you need is a coffee, wifi and a dream. Without further ado, let's dive into this review. Cafe De Mama is a small brand new coffee corner shop in Los Feliz/East Hollywood section of LA. They offer a modest selection of coffee drinks (hot/cold), lattes, matcha and croffle. This spot used to be Boo's Cheesesteak. I was walking aimlessly one hot sunny Thursday afternoon, disoriented and thirsty. I stumbled upon this coffee shop and decided to grab a cold coffee drink. I walked-in and was perfunctorily greeted by a young le petite pinked haired lady. I perused their menu, and decided to order a Cold Brew. It's super concentrated, aroma and flavor are a bit intense despite the cream x sugar that I added. Even a sub par cold coffee is better than no coffee at all. Trust me, I know what a great coffee taste; after all I was bequeathed with a Yelp Elite Coffee Connoisseur 2025 award. The coffee shop is neat, spacious and has limited tables. However, they have a long outdoor bench available for coffee addicts. Lol. Staff were affable, competent, and professional. Interior decor is very minimal. Similarly, it has a very relaxing atmosphere. Prices were competitive and economically affordable. Rear parking available albeit limited to five car ports. Overall, I had a good order experience but not so much on the Cold Brew. read more

New Cafe de Mama location! I love that they have a little lot for parking. It's a new location so it's not super busy so it's quiet and a nice place to study for now. I love the natural lighting and open window. They don't have much seating. They only have 3 tables but it seems more like a grab a coffee and catch up than sit and study place My go to is their black sesame cream top latte! They have just perfected the nutty black sesame taste with the creamy top. I will say their drinks are on the milkier side but their cream top is so good! read more

Excited to have a yum new coffee shop near by! We ordered: - Black Sesame Latte (iced) - Cinnamon Honey Ginger Latte (hot)* - Cream Cheese Croffle* - Egg Salad Croffle My cinnamon honey ginger latte was delicious! That kick of ginger was exactly what I was looking for and I'm looking forward to having it again. The black sesame latte was potent and well done. The cream cheese croffle was simple and tasty, but I was surprised by the pieces of pear (could've been apple) in the egg salad croffle. Not my preference, so I would've enjoyed without it. The space is small but fresh, very simple and stylish overall! There is a very small parking lot attached. read more

Stopped by Cafe De Mama on a Thursday morning before work and wow... so glad I did. I've been searching for a good black sesame latte spot nearby and this place officially became our new go-to. Got there around 7:30am and there were already a few people there, which honestly says a lot. Parking is on the smaller side. The place itself was very clean and has a pretty good-sized indoor space. They also have an outdoor area where people can just hang out, relax, and enjoy their drinks. I ordered the black sesame latte and the vanilla bean latte -- both were absolutely delicious. The black sesame latte especially was rich, smooth, and exactly what I was hoping for. The server was extremely friendly and welcoming too, which made the experience even better. Definitely coming back. read more

I wish I lived closer because oh my god I love this place. -- the mochi! The injeolmi! The espresso! Everything is perfect and it's not too sweet which is the highest praise I can give. The barista behind the counter was super kind and place is friendly and bright overall too, was welcome pause for wonder and delight in my weekend. I'm so jaded by other places' costs that this feels like a bargain to boot. I'll be back as often as I can swing it :) read more

Cafe De Mama - Injeolmi Mochi Latte with Espresso - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

My friend and I stopped by Cafe de Mama during their soft opening and really enjoyed the experience. We both ordered the Black Sesame Cream Lattes -- the black sesame flavor was rich and nutty, balanced nicely by the sweet and creamy foam on top. It's definitely more of an indulgent treat than an everyday drink for me, but absolutely delicious. We also shared the croffle with cream cheese filling. The texture was perfectly crispy on the outside while still soft and doughy inside. The cream cheese filling was rich without being overly heavy or overpowering. The shop itself is charming and cozy, and the bold blue roof gives it such a distinct personality. I'd definitely come back to try more items and support this lovely new spot. read more

My family and I have always been a big fan of all of their drinks. Earlier today, I tried their Matcha Mochi Latte and it did not disappoint. The matcha tasted like legit matcha and it was the perfect amount of creamy and sweet, just the way I like it. I am so glad they opened up this location closer to where I live because it's easier to find parking here compared to their other store. read more

Love this coffee shop. Love their vanilla bean latte. This is a drink. I get the most. I've also had their cold brew with the vanilla bean cold foam. The vanilla bean latte is my favorite though.

If you're tired of the same old coffee chains, you need to try Cafe De Mama. Come here to get the most unique latte in LA. We tried the Injeolmi Mochi Latte and added Espresso for $1, Black Sesame Mochi Latte, and the Strawberry Injeolmi Mochi Latte. Each drink was paired with a mochi skewer that you can dip into the drink for a delicious treat to go with your drink! Each drink was deliciously crafted by the barista! The flavors are so unique and delicious with an Asian twist. My favorite was the black sesame latte, the flavor balance is perfect and isn't overpowering. The ambience is tranquil and a a perfect place to relax and sip on your latte! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu! read more

It has a simple, modern feel to the space and there is an outdoor patio if that's your preference. There is a small parking lot but some street parking as well. Will be back this week read more

The color of this matcha instantly made my day. This brand-new spot serves up such fun, creative drinks. I tried a matcha latte that came with a stick of mochi to dunk right in, which I've never seen before. The matcha leans on the sweeter side, so if you're into a more earthy, umami-forward flavor, this might not be your go-to. There are a few tables inside, making it a nice place to work or study, and they have WiFi. Only downside is the parking, but prices are pretty reasonable overall. read more

I LOVE Cafe De Mama! I had only ever had it via DoorDash until this location opened near my work because I loved their injeolmi latte. Injeolmi is my favorite Korean rice cake and it works SO well in this form. This became my go-to coffee spot once it opened. They have such unique variations of coffee and tea that it is so tempting to try them all! I especially love the strawberry injeolmi latte which hits so perfectly, but I have friends who swear by their black sesame latte. Even their simple drinks are excellent. The cafe itself is super clean with indoor and outdoor seating and the staff are always kind and helpful. I appreciate that there is a parking lot because it can be difficult to find parking in the area. They open early, which is perfect for healthcare workers who work in the area to grab a fix before work. People often take the nice stroll over here from the hospital with their co-workers for their delicious drinks. I recommended Cafe De Mama to all my friends and family! read more
