    Latte
    Z D.

    Always friendly, pleasant service , accommodate my drink requests , delicious coffee. I especially like the Latte Campesino (I get it with half syrup). I love to come here whenever I'm in downtown SP.

    5 Wow. The campesino syrup makes everything taste even better. Loved the vegan protein options. We had an iced matcha latte with campesino syrup and the campesino latte with almond milk. Delicious lemon and coconut vegan protein bowl. Would highly recommend.

    Hipster coffee joint to the extreme Wandering the streets of San Pedro, just finished a cup of coffee from a nautically themed coffee place and saw this place open up as well. Was on vacation, so I figured why not get another cup of coffee and be really awake. Inside, it's what I consider to be minimalistically hipster. There's a simple barista station, a toast tablet register, a singular shelf on the wall with records, and nothing else in the place. It borders on the edge of either being very hipster or just not decorated at all. Which I can respect, although I suspect someone with some artistic touches needs to come in and make the space feel more inhabited than it currently is. I get the not your mama's mocha. A Mexican chocolate latte and hibiscus cake because they looked good. Drink took a little while to make because they had to do most everything by hand. Took my pics and took my sips. The earthy, spiced chocolate paired with the light and fruity coffee worked well in terms of flavor contrast. The chocolate didn't have a lot of cocoa solids in it which lead to a bit of grittiness in the coffee. For denser chocolates, you got to put in more fat to help emulsify everything. So probably swapping the whole milk to half and half, melting the chocolate in the cream then frothing to layer in the latte might've been a better choice to help with texture. The hibiscus cake was soft, moist, and very floral. Not too sweet, but just the right hint of sugar to make it sweet enough. A very delicate but tasty bite. Price was pretty high. Both items coming out to about 16 bucks. Not a cheap bite, but pretty good for what you get. It's a very trendy coffee shop, asking for a lot for a little but giving a good cup of joe in return. It's not a place I would seek out, but for the area it's pretty good.

    If you're looking for an early morning cup of joe to get you going, Distrito is a great option if you're in Pedro.. Forget Starbucks and the other chains that serve bitter, over roasted coffee sitting for hours. I'm in the area for early morning meetings from time to time and Distrito opens at 7 am. Distrito is my main option. My go to here and usual is a cold brew. Distrito doesn't roast their own coffee but they do use local roasters. One being Piscaresca Barra from Boyle Heights which I'm a fan of. I'm not sure where they source their pastries but I did order a chocolate croissant that wasn't fresh. Tasted a day or two old. I should of asked even though they did offer to heat it up (not the same fresh daily). Cool spot to chill with a few spots to sit and read book or kill some time.

    I really enjoyed this coffee spot. I drove from Hermosa Beach to try this place out. I tend to order a quad on ice, pretty simple. I find a good well-versed coffee shop knows what to do with that order and the ones that struggle are the ones I probably don't re-visit. I visited a coffee shop down the street from Distrito Coffee and was not pleased with how they priced their quad on ice (it's often over-charged because it's not ordered correctly by the cashier). That was no the case here! The two guys working there were super laid back and friend. I loved the charming vibe of the arts district as it seeped into this shop too. I enjoyed my quad on ice, it was very delicious. I loved the subtle earthy tones and richness of the espresso. The guy who handed me the drink was super friendly and nice. I would make the drive again! Highly recommend. :)

    I've been wanting to try this place for a while since I am local and finally had an opportunity. I came in and I'm not sure if they were short staffed but I had to wait 15 minutes to even order a drink. I decided to go with the iced cafe de olla because I was in a rush and figured the café was already made. They just needed to ice it. The Café de Olla needed to have a little bit more cinnamon, but it was good. I've heard a lot of great things about Distrito so I'm hoping that this was just an off day. I do you want to go back and try some of their other drinks when I'm not pressed for time.

    Really great local spot with delicious coffee! I got their oatmilk latte and would recommend. They do have some outside seating too to enjoy your coffee outside. Make sure to stop by!

    Distrito Coffee is a cute minimalistic coffee spot located in San Pedro. Its serving up "street coffee". They have your basic coffee drinks in addition to speciality drinks. They're open M- F from 7am- 3pm and S-S from 7am- 4pm. During my visit, I was greeted right away and got my "go to" coffee drink which is an iced vanilla latte. The drink was pretty spot on! Great amount of milk and sweetener. You never know how it'll taste since every cafe amounts are slightly different. So the first sip is always a magical surprise! Haha

    A small coffee shop in the heart of Pedro The staff was super kind. He thanked me for checking them out after finding out it was my first time there! My partner got their drip (tinto) and I got their not your regular mocha. The staff's recommendation was not your regular mocha and it was super rich.

    Cortadito campesino (caffe de olla) small but mighty. 5 stars
    Coco V.

    Love this place! I'm not that much of a coffee expert, but I love the coffee here because it's smooth, it's not bitter and it tastes good. I love the cafe de olla with oat milk and the cortado. The pastries I haven't had in a while but I remember I liked it. My only complaint is sometimes they have off hours where they close early or aren't open when they're supposed to be. They have AESOP soap and lotion in the bathroom which is really good quality. Try it and tell me all about it!

    Matcha latte!

    Distrito Coffee is the kind of place that feels deeply rooted in its neighborhood, gritty, authentic, and unapologetically itself. The cafe mirrors the energy of San Pedro with an atmosphere that's raw yet welcoming. The decor and music are bold, a little abrasive in the best way, but somehow still inclusive, creating a space where everyone feels like they belong if they're willing to lean into the vibe. What truly elevates Distrito is the coffee. The espresso is a beautiful counterpoint to the edgy exterior, warm, nuanced, and surprisingly delicate, with layered flavors that show real care and craft. It's the kind of espresso that makes you slow down and pay attention. The baristas are effortlessly cool, knowledgeable without being pretentious, and clearly passionate about what they're doing. The customers match the energy, artists, locals, and regulars who give the place its soul. Distrito Coffee isn't trying to be trendy or polished. It's real, confident, and memorable, a neighborhood café that delivers both character and exceptional coffee.

    Yummy pastries

    This is my new go-to coffee spot in San Pedro. Their americano is one of the best ones I've ever had. Very smooth and delicious. 10/10! My coworker tried their flat white and said it was really good too. I'll definitely have to try one of the pastries next time because they look so yummy. Distrito Coffee is a sleek, modern coffee shop that's kind of small inside and just has a few tables and chairs, with a couple more outside. I'd recommend coming after 9am when the morning rush dies down. Whenever I visit, there's only 2 baristas working so the line to order may get long when it's busy. The baristas are friendly, and they know how to make a great cup of coffee. Can't wait to come back for another americano!

    was looking for a cafe in the area and saw that this one had good reviews. I came v early on a Sunday and no one was there (it seemed like it had j opened). there is no parking lot, but luckily there was ample street parking available at the time (also free since it was a Sunday!) the aesthetic was v minimalistic and modern which I liked and took as a good sign. we ordered: - matcha latte: honestly the color of it was already indicative that it wouldn't be good. it tasted extremely watered down and low quality. it was hard to drink and I ended up not finishing it - chai latte: usually I like chai lattes and get it as a safe option so I told my friend to get this so I can try it. it was horrible... tasted like cinnamon water. I was more surprised by the disappointment of this drink as I've never had a bad chai latte until this one - espresso shot: my friend ordered this and said it wasn't good (I'm not a coffee drinker so I didn't try it) overall, v shocked by the good reviews this place has. I'm wondering if maybe only their coffee items are good? but I would not recommend their tea lattes

Both their coffee and matcha are smooth, flavorful, and never overly sweet, which we really appreciate. Their cloud drinks are especially good and always hit the spot. One of the highlights for our family is the strawberry milk. My daughter absolutely loves it and asks for it every single visit. The cafe has such a welcoming vibe, and it's clear they put a lot of care into their drinks and overall experience. Definitely a spot we keep coming back to.

The white dude with the LA dodgers hat will just stare at you, I have no idea why? Maybe he hasn't been taught basic manners, lack of a father figure? If you are reading this I can be your father. He clearly has no manners, or general respect. Why would you if you are paying tooth and nail for rent at a coffee shop that has nothing to compete with its surrounding area. I will keep it simple if you are Caucasian or Asian and you fear leaving the top of the hill (rolling hills) this is the place for you! Bland coffee and basic ambiance.

    An excellent neighborhood coffee spot!…read more The Masala Chai Tea is a nice upgrade from the usual Starbucks stuff that you can find on any street in America; it's sweet (but not too sweet!), creamy, and definitely flavorful. If I had to nitpick - I'd note that the cups here are a tad undersized - so the large tea bags take up a substantial portion of the cup (which in turn, throws off the balance/composition of the tea, etc.). If you call to place an order after 8 PM (which I do from time to time), they'll very rarely answer the phone. This, of course, gets in the way of being able to pop in and out for a quick pre-ordered drink. The folks at Hojas should do a better job of staying on top of phone calls - that's Customer Service 101! A little fine-tuning would go a long way here - fixing the cup size issue + upping the consistency with phones would be a big plus. :) PRO TIP: Parking on 6th Street can be a little unforgiving - so try to be courteous with not hogging the spaces in front for too long (there aren't many!)

That Bánh mì sandwich had a bread that tasted so fresh, good-quality, soft inside with the perfect crunch on the outside. Spanish latte was just okay for me; I wasn't a huge fan of the syrup they used, and it didn't have any cinnamon (not sure if I needed to ask for it). Customer service: It did take a little while to get served and get my order down but totally worth the wait. Most busy places would notice you and say, we will be with you in a minute, but here I had two girl in the back notice me and kept working on drinks and other kept cleaning, Shoutout to Ethan who was an awesome barista who saw me and had great customer service. Overall though, this place checks so many boxes we'll definitely be back.
