Vibes are great. Can tell there are lots of repeat customers that frequent here on weekends. Not sure when this ends, but there's a pop up in front of the store selling bagels (which look fantastic)!! You can order a bagel and eat it inside while enjoying a delicious coffee/matcha/fun bev Staff was kind. Pretty high traffic on Saturday morning. Not the best for studying due to loud noise/bad Wi-Fi, but it can be done. read more

Was really drawn to the aesthetics of this coffee shop. The sleek modern look makes it nice for instagram photos. There's a good amount of seating but due to how popular this place is, it might be difficult to secure a spot. There's a paid parking lot across the street and some metered parking. Had high hopes for their matcha latte but found it to be too watery. Maybe the "reserve" matcha might've been the move. Bonus it is dog friendly! read more

Back here after dining around the area and to my surprise they're still as busy as they used to be in the early opening days. Good proof that they offered something great that made people keep coming back? Besides the space was indeed nice for just sit and chill by the window! Trying their Iced Shaken Espresso which was so interesting as they served frothed espresso that's slightly sweetened and mixed with milk. It's light and airy, yet serving kickin' coffee flavor. RECOMMENDED FOR SURE! read more

Comets travel swiftly but hopefully Comet Over Delphi is here to stay. I'll admit, I had reservations about this new, hip coffee shop in my hood. All that went out the window after my visit. The minimalistic décor features brick lined walls and a concrete coffee bar that emits an industrial edge. The lofty ceilings, natural wood, & retractable windows add to the charm. The openness of the indoor-outdoor aesthetic is perfect for warm sunny days. You can bask in the sun in one of the windowsills or outside tables or lounge in one of the big leather sofas or sit at a table inside. There are many seating options available. The beverage menu is simple, featuring ceremonial matcha and quality coffee drinks that are expertly prepared in an impressive looking espresso machine that costs $20,000, which is a worthy investment. I like that they offer organic oat & almond milk at no extra charge. I ordered a cortado and was impressed when it was brought to my table on a metal tray with a side of tonic water, sugar cubes, and a little biscotti. (A personal touch to enhance the overall customer experience.) I've never had a cortado served this way. Every sip was perfect, and I enjoyed the palate cleanser of tonic water in between. The biscotti was also tasty. My coffee date and I had the best seats in the house. I absolutely loved seeing the parade of doggies walking by me. We were also digging the classic rock music selection. The vibe here was chill and I felt relaxed as I soaked in the sun and conversation. It's worth mentioning that the staff here are courteous and friendly. They treat their customers with respect - even the furry ones. No doubt I'll be back, perhaps my fur baby will be my next date. *Live music certain nights. $10 cover *Metered street parking or lot across the street. *Dog friendly. read more

I had high expectations for this place because of how busy it was and how long the line was when we arrived. Then again, it was also a Sunday morning. The aesthetic and vibe of the cafe were beautiful, and the open-window concept felt unique compared to a lot of cafes I've been to. I ordered the preserve matcha latte. I thought the price ($12) was a bit expensive, and unfortunately the quality didn't really match the price. They don't sweeten their matcha, which I like because it lets you taste the matcha itself, but the matcha itself tasted bland to me. I also didn't see them whisk it, so I assumed it may have been pre-made, which I understand many cafes do to save time. However, for something advertised as "high-quality" matcha, I was surprised that there were so many clumps left at the bottom of my drink. My fiancé ordered the coconut matcha, which I enjoyed a little more than the one I got, but it wasn't particularly memorable either. I'd still be open to trying their coffee next time, but I probably wouldn't come back specifically for the matcha. read more

Comet Over Delphi - Matcha Coconut and Preserve Matcha Latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Highland Park, California

COMET OVER DELPHI is a whole vibe. Let's start with the coffee. Ordered their MAGIC which was a ristretto cortado. So it was creamy and strong. Yum! The roast they used was great for the cortado. They use their own beans. They must have used dark roast for their LATTE because it didn't taste "milked-down". Now on to the space. The giant glass windows and door at the front set the mood for the space. The inside is even bigger than the front windows suggested. Lots of chairs and tables inside. People are allowed to park their electronics and work so it will be difficult to find an available space. Families and friends looking to hang and catch up are also plentiful. BOOKS are also on the menu. The books selections on the shelves are interesting. The "electronics" like speakers and music players are "vintage". They could be modern made to look vintage, but I didn't want to move things around. The plants are all real, in great condition, and curated to complement the space. They have Flamingo Estate soap and lotion in the bathroom which is well-ventilated, by they way. read more

Hip coffee shop in Highland Park. Inside is modern and stylish. There's a few small tables and two comfy couches for seating. It's a good place to have a coffee and read or get some work done. Appears to be pretty dog friendly too. The coffee is good and there's a small selection of pastries. Although I would have liked if the pastries were warmed up a little. Service was good. Friendly staff. There's a pay lot across the street or street meter parking. It's a good location right next to the metro station. read more

Coffee will never taste the same now that they've leveled up the game. The name will stick in your brain as long as they maintain the flavorful coffee and not plain. It's would be a shame if you didn't visit this shop that will have your heart pop after the last drop and that says a lot. But let me tell you what puts this place on top. The Aremde machine and this has to be a coffee lovers dream. An espresso machine that's so sleek even peeps that don't drink coffee wanna take a peek! I ordered their popular drinks which were the Kalamansi Espresso and The Magic Espresso. The Magic was up first and maaan was it a magical sipping journey! Mmm! Next was the Kalamansi espresso soda and this was quite refreshing and tasty. These drinks left me like Joey Lawrence saying "Whoa!" And the service was spot on. You order your drinks and they bring them to you on an elegant silver trays. I say they sure mean business when it comes to coffee. The atmosphere is super chill and love the vinyl aesthetics with a vinyl set up. And that's my long take on it, Peace out... read more

This place is gorgeous. The aesthetic alone makes you want to stay awhile. The space is bright, stylish, and super Instagram-worthy. Staff were kind and attentive, which I always appreciate. The drinks were decent--good, but not necessarily the highlight for me. I'd still return though because the atmosphere is so nice and it's a great spot to hang out, will try other drinks :) read more

Great space, very roomy and open. Lots of windows that open up too! The space is airy. And service is quick and friendly. This is a simple straight forward quality coffee shops and drinks! Do not expect cream tops galore and heavy things. They have a few specialty coffees done very well in a simple way! If you value quality of beans and the brew and matcha then come here! Presentation is great and is a no fluff coffee shop! When you have quality products you can tell the need for extra stuff in drinks is eliminated and this is exactly that. And it's pup friendly! read more

Out of all the coffee shops I've visited in LA, Comet Over Delphi definitely stands out as one of the most aesthetically pleasing cafés out there! The space captures a European café feel with its big open windows and rustic white walls, creating such a calming and uplifting atmosphere. I ordered their regular matcha latte ($8) with oat milk , which I don't recall being charged extra for it! My friend tried the reserve matcha ($12), which is said to be a more premium version. To be honest, I didn't notice a huge difference in taste, so I'd recommend going with the regular matcha latte. It was earthy, smooth, and strong without being bitter -- perfectly balanced with the oat milk. If you're planning to stay, make sure to ask for your drink "for here." It comes beautifully served in a glass cup on a metal tray, complete with an orange chocolate biscuit on the side! Now, let's talk about the vibe. The interiors are absolutely stunning -- serene, artistic, and filled with natural light streaming through the retractable windows. The sunlight complements the stone counters and minimal wooden furniture so well. On cooler days, sitting by the open windows with your drink feels almost cinematic. I can't wait to come back to try their coffee options, especially the espresso, which I've heard amazing things about! read more

Absolutely loved my first visit of Comet. Had it on my list of places to visit. Came really early on a Saturday that I had to work in the office and so thankful, really enjoyed the experience. Greasy staff, really helped me lock in on what I should order based on my preferences. The barista was very skilled, as both drinks were executed very well. The Magic was well balanced, sorta like a cappuccino but in a cortado size. And the Americano was super solid. No frills on the menu but it's definitely a great place for anyone who cares about the coffee over all other things. It was a nice touch to have been served a platter with sugar and a biscotti. Nice gesture. Will definitely want to come back and try other drinks. The coffee here is exceptional. read more

So good! Not only good coffee but matcha is excellent and the kaiserwasser is especially refreshing, which is a sparkling water with a light elderflower flavoring. The baristas are nice as well and very helpful. Ambiance is great and the massive open windows make it a unique experience to Highland park, it's also right off the Metro A train so it's easily accessible to those without a vehicle! read more

A true hero isn't measured by the size of his strength, but by the size of his coffee cup. Now let's begin this new coffee shop review. COMET OVER DELPHI (est 2025) is a new cafe in Highland Park neighborhood of LA. The origin of its name was a place in ancient Greece. In case you're into Greek mythology. Anyways, COD has the standard pasties and an array of coffee and tea drinks, along with fun options like an orange cold brew, espresso soda, hot chocolate and matcha. It's very spacious, naturally well lit, and has an industrial-looking design with huge windows, brick walls, and exposed metal/wood ceiling. Moreover, their white colored walls were brilliant and pleasing to the eyes. Today, we came on a warm late afternoon to quench ourselves with a cold drink. I ordered their Orange Cold Brew. It was refreshing albeit less smooth and a bit strong despite having milk poured in. What captivated my eyes was the $30G Aremde espresso-coffee machine they use. You know they take it seriously. Furthermore, their staff were very cordial, respectful and professional. Atmosphere was quite relaxing with comfortable couch and chairs. Prices were honestly higher than most coffee shops. But that's the nature of cafe business. Parking was mixture of public lots and street metered. Free wifi. Service was impeccable as well as its cleanliness. Breathtaking! Every drink is IG worthy. Overall, I had a great experience and refreshing cold drink. I highly recommend you visit. read more

Went during their soft opening. Cute aesthetics and has nearby parking lot which is a plus! The drinks however need a lot of work. It's way overpriced for what it is. The matcha is very milky and bland. The color should have been a sign for me to not get it. The orange cold brew was ok. Not worth the price. read more

Before I get to the actual review- this new yelp recognitions thing is weird. Why does it showcase one of my lower recognitions vs. the 50+ DAMN reviews I have for the coffee & tea category lmao. I wonder if this is too new of a place, so it's category is still in flux? No idea, anyway- Great space, pretty spacious. Nothing too pretentious, not a try hard, no furniture that looks like it's obviously Temu, all tasteful. I had two drinks- cold brew was great, nothing crazy flavorful or funky but still sensible and balanced. The matcha I had was small (and I was told that beforehand, so it was fine), and it was made well, contrary to some earlier reviews here. Good consistency and I got the bold flavor that I was looking for in that type of matcha; but if you don't want matcha, they have a few espresso soda drinks and other coffee options too. Service was also polite, brought my drinks to me, gave me a complimentary cookie! If we were to compare to other recent cafes that have opened in the past year or two, this is a very, very welcome addition and I'd absolutely drive out to get a drink and chill here. read more

Newest coffee/matcha shop in town! I am not sure how people found out about this place already but this place was packed & had a line when I went. The price difference (6/10 or 16/20) is for the grade of matcha & not for the size of drinks. Inside is nice & minimal. Good vibes. Even espresso machine looks extra fancy. They do take their time to make drinks so gotta be patient. I noticed a small price discrepancy on the menu on the table compared to the menu posted outside & in front of the register. Not sure if the matcha is strong enough for latte because all I could taste was milk. I would come for ambience but not sure if I would come for just their drinks. read more

Food - 3.75/5 Matcha latte - 3.5/5 They call this A grade matcha and it was just ok. They do mention when ordering that it was just regular low grade matcha and that the S and SOM matcha (not latte) are more "rare" with SOM being the rarest. The person who took our order was right that the matcha latte was ok and nothing really note worthy. SOM Matcha - 4/5 taste - 2/5 price The SOM matcha is basically a shot of matcha with a earthy taste and smooth texture and finish. It was delicious, but definitely not worth the steep $10 cost. Latte - 3.75/5 The latte was good but not something I would say is note worthy that I'd go back specifically for. Service - 3.75/5 The staff is super friendly and what I assume was one (if not the owner) of this coffee shop were super helpful and passionate about coffee and matcha. I understand that at the time of this visit it was during their soft opening so I'm sure they are figuring out flow, staffing and logistics of the sort but it felt slow. They do have only 1 coffee machine, but it seemed like some patrons who ordered before us had been waiting a while for drinks. Ambiance - 4.5/5 I can appreciate the attention to detail of the space. The mix of industrial and mid century modern is pretty well done with a fair amount of seating. I did find it odd they had multiple copies of coffee table books but not sure if they were actually for sale or if it was just for decor. It definitely is a vibe spot to get photos for social or just wanna have cute cafe photos. Overall it's a vibe space, but feels more of a spot because of the vibe vs the coffee is anything super amazing. The menu feels a bit complex (they don't really have descriptions for items (unless you ask, you'd never really know the differences in matcha, what a magic latte is etc) but if you want a spot that's a vibe and a chill place to chat this would be a good spot for that. Maybe, I'll go back after the soft opening to see if things are different, but for now it's a pass for me. Also parking is tough like everything in highland park read more

Stopped by Comet Over Delphi to check out their reserve matcha latte. Compared to their regular matcha latte, this one uses one of their private selection matcha powders. I enjoyed the strong matcha flavors with an earthy, nutty profile. It was very well mixed with the milk. The pairing with the orange-y chocolate biscuit was helpful to balance out the earthiness and bitterness of the matcha. While this was a delicious drink, I've had similar quality matcha lattes that are cheaper in both LA and NYC. Their cheddar and chive scone was pretty standard. I wish it was heated up a little bit more to really soften the inside and crisp up the outer layers. Either way, the cheese and chive flavors came through. The minimalistic coffee shop is aesthetically pleasing and has a calm, serene feel. I love the different seating options from table, high top, couch, to windows ledge/sill. Lots of natural lighting and neutral, earthy colored decor. Perfect place for studying, work, or meeting up with others! read more

I've been here a few times now and cannot overstate how kind the workers are. I honestly don't usually care all that much about service as long as it hits a very low baseline, but literally every interaction I've had with them has been remarkable. I've had two coffee drinks (latte and Magic), and two matcha's (latte and iced). They don't sweeten much by default here, but they're happy to if you ask. Honestly, they pretty much accommodate everything. Just ask them about the drink you're considering and tell them how you usually like it. They'll hook you up without making you feel like you're asking for too much. It's also a great place to meet some friends or get some work done as long as you can find a table or counter. read more

A super relaxing and convenient spot with matcha, espresso, and non-caffeinated options. I recently tried the butterfly pea ginger iced tea, so tasty.

Was able to check out Comet Over Delphi last weekened and the interior is beautiful. Staff are super friendly and efficient. The drinks are very expensive, I imagine you're paying for their rent or the cost of the interior. This is the type of place you'll go and your drink could end up being $10 pre tip so be warned. That being said, there is plenty of comfortable seating and you can catch up with a friend or people watch and let the day pass away comfortably. Not sure if I'll be coming back anytime soon because of the pricing because there are so many cafes in Los Angeles with great drinks that are priced lower. read more

When trying a new spot, most have that doubt if the place will be a hit or a miss... Well, this place is a big hit and glad I tried it.... Honestly, at first I wasnt impressed with the name (can anyone tell me where the name comes from)... GOOD was the word I thought of after my first sip.... lol Coffee is great, good enough for me to have this place 2 times in 1 week.... This place is pretty cool, minimal decor, music playing in the background with an open layout (windows open to feel that breeze or sit down looking toward the street) I thought this was cool.... and not seen in Highland Park 1 thing i dont agree but I understand you pay for quality... is the size of the cup vs the price.. 5 dollars for a drip and cup is not that big... but its worth it... Pastries didnt catch my eye, yes they look good, a good variety also, but none stood out for me to get one... But the drip coffee was great The shaken was well balanced, definitely can taste the coffee Friendly staff, no issues Street parking available, or a parking lot steps away... Surprised with this place, even the name Surprised me when I first heard about it... Definitely will go back... So when you go.... Enjoy!!..... read more

I'm a sucker for cafe with cute names!! The cafe has a lovely ambiance and the large, open windows really adds to its laidback vibe. My friend had the matcha yuzu and it was refreshing! I tried their matcha latte with oat milk (I didn't add sweetener) and had a darker, almost bitter taste. The drink was also more watery than milky in taste. I prefer my matcha on the sweeter end so I should've ordered it with sweetener, but I recommend it without for those who prefer their matcha non-sweet! It is a nice place to work and study but the cafe can get full so seating might be tricky! Parking wasn't difficult as there was a parking lot nearby and street parking is available. (+) great ambiance, big open windows (+) high quality matcha selection available but is pricier (+) friendly service (+) good for work/study and hang outs (+) parking lot nearby, space for street parking ( ) costs extra to have sweetener with your matcha read more

The space is thoughtfully designed. There's plenty of seating, but it doesn't feel cramped or stuffy at all. I really liked how they incorporated the beams in the middle to create a natural standing area without disrupting the flow. Even though the line was pretty long when we arrived, it moved quickly and efficiently, which I appreciated. When we got to ordering the owner thanked us for being patient and even took a little time to explain how his wife designed the space. We ordered the Spanish latte and the matcha. The Spanish latte was excellent! Perfectly balanced, smooth, and not overly sweet. The matcha, however, leaned a little too bitter for my taste and could have used a touch more creaminess or sweetness to round it out. They're in their soft opening era so I'm sure it'll be tweaked more. Overall I definitely would come back if the line dies down but it's not something I would line up for read more
