    This is the newest So Cal location, and the fourth Levain location I've been to. I ordered some of my go to cookie flavors. I enjoyed the flavor combinations of the Caramel Coconut Chocolate Chip Cookie (5 stars), Chocolate Chip Walnut (4 stars), and Dark Chocolate Chocolate Chip (4 stars). The Lemon Cookie (2 stars) became one of my favorite cookies when I previously got it at the Larchmont and Venice locations. This one tasted dry as if it was over baked or over mixed. The disappointing texture distracted from the signature lemon flavor that I regretted ordering two. The service (3 stars) was quick, but it was not friendly as the other locations. I expected more from the quality of service and cookies as a Levain fan. Some of the cookies were not as memorable as the other times I've had them, and they were also not the best versions from Levain.

    Staff was nice and service was good. I came here to get some cookies and love that there is another location near WeHo. It's smaller than the one at Larchmont, but that doesn't deter from the cookies. I bought the pecan chocolate, two chocolate chip, and their specials carrot cookie and lemon cookie. The carrot cookie had nuts in it which I'm not used too and it was a bit hard. Lemon was a more popular cookie among buyers. I also ordered a sandwich, Tomato & Burrata. I asked if I could get extra arugula and the person behind the stand said "it's weighed so I can't add extra". That's a real disappointment, usually that would be an acceptable request elsewhere. Why is okay to omit an ingredient but when you request just for a little extra you get denied. For that they loose a star rating on me. I even gave him a tip.. The sandwich tasted great but the portion size was too small for my liking, especially for the price and the basic ingredients. You're really just buying their name brand. The other cookies were for a friend. If you wanna eat there. There are tables next to the window. They have complimentary water, but it was warm.. Napkins are to the side.

    First time trying Levain and it did not disappoint. Even though I knew the cookies were huge, I was still taken by surprise just how hefty it was. I got the two chip chocolate chip cookie and the dark chocolate chip cookie, as well as a mocha with oat milk ($1 extra). The cookies were AMAZING, I especially enjoyed the dark chocolate chip cookie. They were crunchy on the outside, a little soft on the inside with ooey gooey melty chocolate chips. It was absolutely divine. The mocha was also delicious, I asked for extra simple syrup (also another $1) and it was perfect. Service was excellent, they were very helpful and kind. No line when I went, and there were a couple tables to sit at, but the parking is atrocious so we couldn't stay.

    Double  Dark Chocolate Chip Cookie and Two Chip Chocolate Chip Cookie

    Walking around Beverly Hills and stumbled across Levain Bakery and decided to give it a try. My boyfriend and I got the double dark chocolate chip cookie and the two chip chocolate chip cookie and they were just okay. They are substantially large cookies, but I didn't think they were special at all. These were pretty standard, and weren't served warmed which was a bit disappointing. Definitely think getting them fresh or warmed would've elevated it. Glad I tried it but I wouldn't necessarily get them again

    Beverly Hills is known for Levain. Macadamias White Chocolate was definitely a limited flavor and I had to try it! I was a little concerned that there were friends flying around in the pastry case. Opted for a cookie instead $6.25.

    It pains me to say that Levain lives up to the hype. It's bad enough that you're pretty much fighting the crowds at rodeo and now you have to work on your inner zen to wait in line for some fresh cookies and sandwiches. Levain offers their iconic cookies that can be seen from miles away with their iconic packaging and larger than most cookies. We ordered the chocolate chocolate, chocolate chip, white chocolate macadamia and a cheese sandwich on a fresh baguette. I will say the mound of cookies that you get is pretty overwhelming for one, I personally couldn't finish one cookie in a sitting because of how rich and sweet they are, but that definitely didn't stop me for taking a bite of everyone else's.

    Oatmeal Raisin scone

    Ah Levains, the perfect way to indulge especially during the holidays. This location is smaller than the Larchmont one. There's no display table for merch and I didn't see a tote bag. But it's all about the sweets. My favorites are the signature Chocolate Chip Walnut, which oozes with chips and Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter chips. Love the limited flavor White Chocolate Macadamia, too. The other limited Dark Chocolate Peppermint, Good to try something new but the mint flavor overpowers the chocolate. The Oatmeal Raisin scone is very good and big, like their cookies. The scone was crunchy on the outside, crumbly on the inside, not cakey. Great price, too, for $4.25. They have other pastries but their cookies are irresistible. Service was great and personable. You can either order from an employee or use an iPad (after downloading an app I think). And now they have a few sandwiches, which looked appetizing! Here's a huge plus - parking is a breeze! Pleasantly surprised by the free two-hour parking garage on the same side of the street. Metered parking, too. Very small seating area inside and out. Outside makes for great people watching on this quiet, pedestrian friendly street. Thank you for opening in Beverly Hills!

    A friend had these cookies delivered to him and he was raving about all the flavors that he tried. I checked out their site and saw a couple I would consider trying, so when I saw the storefront over on Bevelry-across from Chaumont-it was a no-brainer to try them out. Looking around, I decided to go with the: -dark chocolate peanut butter chip -two chip chocolate chip -chocolate chip brioche These cookies are BIG. There is a lot to them, so the price is almost worth the size of the cookie alone. I couldn't finish any of these in one sitting. To be honest, I thought they were okay; but I did favor the dark chocolate peanut butter one. As for the brioche, I would skip this; didn't really enjoy this at all but it did look good which is what made me cave in. Other options are flatbreads and sandwiches, and the tomato parmesan flatbread looked particularly good, something to possibly try next time. The four stars primarily goes to the staff; service from Ruth was A+++! Park at a meter if you can get one, or the garage is on same side of the street a block south.

    Whatever you thought a chocolate chip cookie was.....erase it and start all over. This place will make you reconsider your entire cookie memory. The service was above par. Very clean and organized. The cookies were....I mean nothing short of top tier. I don't know what else to say. Spend the money. Enjoy the calories. Live your life. Cookies are life.

    Excited to try Levain Bakery - I've been to NYC bakery in upper west side. Ordered the double chocolate chip and the coconut caramel cookie - both excellent. Lots of chocolate chips, thick and gooey. I love Levain!

    Not big fan of the cookies myself because I think they are overpriced and sweet , but my family loves them . Always great service and a nice clean storefront.

    finally open! I've been waiting for Levain BH to open for many many many many months. this location is just down the street from where I work. I'm thrilled I can easily access this iconic cookie that originated in NYC, where my sister would always bring them to LA when she'd visit home. my favorite is the original. I don't need any other cookie. no seasonals, no new flavors, just the classic Levain and I'm good! the store is beautifully designed, with a classic and clean design. staff was cheerful and friendly. I knocked off one star because I had hoped they had decaf espresso beverages (I can't have caffeine in the afternoon, sadly), and also because their cookies have shrunk by at least 1/4 of the size of their original offering. in my humble opinion, the smaller size changes the texture of the cookie as a whole, since there's more crisp on the outside, and leaving less soft tender cookie in the middle. other than this, I am still a fan of this NYC institution!

    I'm a huge Levain Bakery fan and was so happy when they started opening up in Los Angeles! I was surprised to see no line at the Beverly Hills store. It's much smaller than the one in Larchmont but the cookies are just as delicious! I got a two chip chocolate chip cookie, dark chocolate peanut butter cookie and a chocolate chip brioche. I reheated the cookies, so the chips were melty. If you like cookie dough, you'll love these cookies. They are big and rich - great for sharing. The chocolate chip brioche makes for a nice sweet breakfast or afternoon snack. Free parking in the public lot down the street.

    I'm 0/2 at the Beverly Hills location. Extremely disappointing taste and freshness. The Larchmont location is much better.

I was curious about the house made syrup and sadly, it was a bit too sweet. Partly my fault though because I keep forgetting everything in America is sweeter lol. However, the syrup had a natural warm sweetness to it and I ended up enjoying it more after it watered down a bit. I think I prefer their staple unsweetened coffee drinks as the natural aroma and flavour of their beans are so good. I'll have to come back again next time I'm in LA!

Once it was our turn to order, we were told that the boba was t ready and wouldn't be until about an hour later.

Anyway, since we work down the street, we decided to go back when the boba was ready and get a few drinks. Our order consisted of the loud matcha latte, a match cheese milk tea, and a supreme brown sugar boba, which was my order. Overall, it wasn't the best milk tea boba I had but the boba's were very warm and soft. It was a hot day and I noticed my drink was a little warm too. I was going to add more ice to my drink because there wasn't very much ice in it. It was also creamy with some froth or something. It wasn't bad but it was a little different than what I am used to and I go to a lot of boba spots. I will probably go back to try their fruit teas but the milk teas were a little unusual to me.

My go-to is the mango sago, but I also love the guava milk tea. It's legit so delicious and I have a hard time choosing between the two every time I come in.

It is a bit pricey - $135 per person for afternoon tea, an additional $65 per person for unlimited champagne.

It was still worth a cute picture and my mom said it was delicious. The tip was included in our bill and was a little over $400. The servers are attentive and checked up on us often. I will say there is limited seating and although it is comfortable, it is a bit awkward. I would come back here for the aesthetics and look however as for food and traditional high tea, most likely not.
