Bada Coffee is an independent coffee shop located in Torrance, at the Plaza Mayor Shopping Center…read more It combines Korean Café' looks and taste and it even has a robot to make your coffee, but have no fear, there are people there to help out. The place is ever so cute. It is spotless. The service is great. Even the robot is adorable. We love their Mango mango and all of their lattes are great. Their espresso is perfect. I wish it was open a bit later. We often end up there near closing. But it is one of our favorite coffee shops in the South Bay. It is fun, the prices are fair and again, they have a robot. They close at 6 pm so get there. Please stay open until 7, we will come. The attention to detail in every cup is consistent and amazing. You will love it.

I didn't personally like their americano and I was shocked that they don't serve drip coffee after a certain time. Their specialties are sweet drinks. Mostly the matcha and foams. And it's pretty good~ I can see why people like their matcha foam I have been into espresso tonic. They have a yuzu eapresso tonic. Not my favorite so I have to ask to get their yuzu epresso tonic without the yuzu haha because they don't have a regular espresso tonic in their menu They have indoor seating but it's not really comfortable since it's surrounded by the line that wraps around it.

Cafe Dulce is a nice spot to stop by when you're looking for a good coffee and something to eat. I…read moredon't drink coffee I wanted to go for the pastries that I didn't even end up ordering but based on what my sister told me - it is good coffee. The cafe has a casual atmosphere that makes it a good option for a quick breakfast, study/work session or a relaxed coffee break. We ordered Obang ttaek with nutella filling and a couple iced coffees. I've never had Obang but they came out so hot the box it came in was sweating. Unexpectedly they smell exactly like a bolillo would. Now there wasn't a line when we got there and our order took less than 10 minutes. I did notice it was really full so if you want to grab a seat it is going to be hard. Overall, a nice cafe to have in the Torrance area. I'd recommend giving it a try if you're looking for a casual spot to grab coffee and satisfy a craving for something sweet or savory. I'm for sure going to come back to try some of their pastries.

Cute coffee shop on Sepulveda Blvd in Torrance. It is located in a strip mall with a few other…read morebusinesses. Plenty of parking was available on a Saturday morning in August. Was early to meet a friend and asked the cashier about some decaf beverages. The Misugaru smoothie sounded interesting. It is a roasted Korean multi grain powdered, creamy, lightly sweetened blend with milk. I chose almond milk as the base. It was okay, a bit too grainy and probably could have used more time mixing. Would give it 3 stars. My friend treated me to a pesto Danish which I saved for later. I actually purchased one for the hubby to try later as well. Very good! I like savory treats. It's a nice, local coffee shop. It's a bit loud inside as it is bustling w/many customers. There is limited seating outside. I would stop by again to pick up some pesto Danishes and try a different beverage.

Stopped by Cool Beans with our friends for a double date lunch on a weekend afternoon. The…read morerestaurant is really cute, bright, and inviting. The staff is also very warm and welcoming. The food was delicious, and the drinks were unique. We ordered the citrus matcha and bumble espresso, both of which were light and refreshing. The caffeinated tonics also looked yummy. For food, we opted for the mango and chia syrniki, which was lightly sweet and had the consistency of pan-fried cottage cheese, and the Shakshuka. My only feedback is that the portions were a bit small, and we all wished the Shakshuka was served with more sourdough. Our friends got the strawberry & orange lemonade, matcha latte, Shakshuka, and the cheese & dill syrniki, which they also enjoyed. Overall, would recommend for a light meal and refreshing drinks. Parking is also a breeze, as there is a parking lot for the strip mall that Cool Beans is located in.

Upon entering, you immediately see a case of Honey Cake slices. It looks so gorgeous and tempting, we had to order! It was unique in texture and had a perfect amount of sweetness. The layers are very impressive too! We got the pancakes too which are made of farmers cheese, which were a hit for our group! The service is incredibly kind and friendly here. It's just a couple of people working on the food and taking orders, so important to be patient, but everything came out quite fast! Definitely recommend stopping here for a coffee or a sweet treat!

Went for the first time today and it was great…read more I got the French Toast Latte with bananarama syrup added to it; suggested by Emily, who was super helpful and lovely btw. It was bomb and tasted slightly buttery. I also got one of the bagels. They make the bagels in house and you can tell. Plus they stack the toppings and don't short anything, which is nice. The cafe is quiet with decent seating and super chill. Thank-you again to Emily for the great service [: I'll be back.

I was greeted when I arrived and there are menus by the cash register. They have a pretty wide selection of drinks and different flavors of matcha but I decided on banana. I usually like to get banana matcha from Da Vien but Amai's is just as good if not better! Maybe I was imagining things but I think I tasted real banana in there. It was perfectly sweetened and creamy without going overboard. There was dried banana on top which I also love. I used their restroom which they have one of in the back of the cafe. It's clean and well maintained. I will definitely be back to try the mango matcha next time.

This is hands down one of the best coffee shops I've ever had!!…read more I got the French toast latte and while I don't like super sweet coffees, I do like my coffee on the slightly sweet side. I was worried I needed to get it extra sweet but it was the perfect amount of sweet to milk to coffee ratio. My husband got the pumpkin cold brew and usually I'm not a cold brew fan, but this one was pretty good. The shop's theme is a cute little flight theme! There's a few seats inside and a parking lot outside.

It could be store bought horchata mix for all I know but it is uuuhhhhhMAAYYYZZZIINNGGG!!!! It hits everytime!!

This location is much smaller with the most horrid parking spots known to man. & with the traffic on Crenshaw.... Phew good luck. Anyways love my dirty horchata!!

Given the high price and the establishment's strong overall rating, I expected a much better experience. To make matters worse, the service was nonexistent.
