    I was visiting LA and staying at an air BnB walking distance from this place and read online to try their signature latte called The Marlowe. It is iced with cinnamon cream top and pretty good! Kind of tasted like s'mores but I did add one extra sugar to make it a little bit more sweet. The service was fast and the decor is minimalist vibe so it felt classy and chic. I would definitely go back next time I am in town!

    You can get coffee anywhere, but the environment here is light and bright, great for studying or work remote type vibes. Friends catching up, or a simple stop in, enjoy your coffee and on to the next location. When I walked in they were not busy at all, a few baristas behind the counter. The girl that took my order was nice and straight to the point. Definitely returning for the ambiance. Also light music being played for a good vibes type feels. Oh the coffee. I got a caramel latte with almond milk. You can actually taste the coffee flavors. 5/5 thank you to the establishment's owners for creating a vibe.

    930 an, Thursday, December 18, 2025 First time trying Marlowe Coffee & Eatery thanks to the big green machine being closed down the street! Haha. It was a short walk east and across the street from Ralph's. Watch out for drippy, leaky, ill fitting lids. This is due to the lip of the coffee cup. It wasn't manufactured perfectly smooth for a tight seal with the plastic lid. Hence the dribbling from the cup when sipping, and all over my jacket and pants. Friendly staff. The interaction with the cashier was good. I asked for a large coffee when looking at their menu and only saw a regular size for most of their choices. She said the drip coffee came in a 16 oz cup. I wasn't happy with the leaky cup & lid. Unfortunate, but moving on. I had a good convo with my colleague at the little side table with two chairs. It wasn't too busy at mid morning. A nice little coffee shop on Wilshire.

    Inside of the coffee shop is so cute! Neutral and beige colors and the lighting inside is warm. Lots of couches, chairs, and bar chairs to sit at and do work. The barista was very kind and service was quick! Ice honey lavender latte 4/5 typical flavors! Has a nice espresso coffee taste and the honey tastes yummy. I would order the drink again

    Very pretty inside.

    Delicious signature Marlowe Latte! I didn't expect much from it, but I loved the cinnamon-maple cream top and it was super smooth. Reminded me of the cream top coffees I usually find in ktown. The baristas were super nice, service was quick, and it's a very clean vibe inside with a ton of small personal/2 person chairs.

    Marlowe has a super cute aesthetic and the drinks are decent. Parking is fairly easy with metered street spots or a nearby retail structure. That said, the service always feels a bit cold and not very welcoming. Maybe that's the intended vibe, but it definitely stands out.

    The coffee was good, the place felt spacious and the people behind the counter were friendly. There was a relaxed vibe to the place that I liked. Unfortunately, I was looking for something to eat as well and as I looked at the menu, nothing really jumped out at me. I would go back for coffee but if I am looking for something to eat as well, I will probably look at other options.

    Such a cute coffee shop! I LOVED their signature latte called the Marlowe it was AMAZING. It's just a latte with their cinnamon foam on top but it was to die for. I was sad it only came in one small size because I needed more it was that good! The only downside was the price, $9 for what would be considered a small.

    I went on a Sunday morning and it was nearly empty inside. There's a good amount of seating for those who want to sit and chat. Service was good but the matcha was just fine. Nothing to write home about here

    A great option for a coffee shop in Miracle Mile. Great and super friendly service too. We tried two lattes: the Marlowe, with cinnamon cream top, and the Root Beer Latte, a special menu item. The root beer latte had a unique and great flavor--it definitely deserves a permanent spot on the menu.

    Garden bagel, Americano with blueberry cream top

    Marlowe has become one of my favorite cafes, and I have been to many! I just visited it today for the first time and everything was amazing. I got an americano with a blueberry cream too which was so good. The food was fantastic. I got the garden bagel, which I am definitely recreating at home! A very spacious environment with wonderful customer service. They also offer prepared drinks and lunches, from freshly squeezed orange juice to wraps. Even though there aren't many outlets around the seats, I will say their WiFi is pretty quick and their seating is very comfy in case you want to do work here. I stayed to study for a couple of hours and it was a nice experience. I definitely recommend this cafe!

    Literally me buying this coffee 2 days ago.

    I don't usually write reviews, but today I felt like I had to share this experience. This coffee shop used to be one of my go-to places. It actually reminded me of my hometown, which is why I kept coming back--even though the prices are higher than in many other places. I was always happy to pay extra because I truly enjoyed one specific drink: an Americano with their cream top, which I would purchase as an add-on. Typically, this cream is offered on iced drinks, but due to health reasons, I don't drink iced coffee, and I simply prefer my drinks without ice. Until now, this was never an issue. Today, for the first time in my life, I was refused service for that request. I was told that management recently decided not to allow this customization anymore in order to keep a "consistent customer experience." To be honest, I find this very disappointing. I've been working in marketing and customer experience for over 10 years, and this is not how you build or maintain customer relationships. Even if a new policy is being implemented, there is always a right way to communicate it. A simple solution would have been to accommodate the request this one last time and kindly explain that it wouldn't be possible moving forward. Instead, I drove out of my way for something I've ordered many times before, only to be refused without flexibility. I want to be clear--this is not about the staff. They were polite and simply following instructions. This is about the policy and how it was handled. In most places that truly value their customers, reasonable customization is not an issue. Whether it's removing an ingredient from a dish or adjusting a drink, small accommodations go a long way in building loyalty. Unfortunately, this experience left me disappointed.

    The food is great! We ordered the garden bagel on an everything bagel and it was salted perfectly! The cream cheese tasted perfectly on bagel and the avocado on top was delicious. The bagel avocado had great avocado spread and the cheese on top tasted delicious. It was soft and chewy! The drinks we ordered also tasted great. The ice peach tea was a little bit too sweet so we added some water and the rose sparkling lemonade tasted good. You can taste the hints of rose in it and the lemonade wasn't too sour which I was initially worried about. The server was really nice in taking our order! She was really patient and kind in calling out our orders! The atmosphere of the cafe is also pleasant with plenty of seating. There's two restrooms inside and even parking in the rear which is usually a problem for cafes in downtown. There's also plenty of street parking.

    Cafe Dulce is in the Japanese Village Plaza in Little Tokyo. They have a pretty wide range of…read morethings on their menu, including baked goods, coffee drinks, matcha drinks and food. I'm from the Bay Area but I've been to Cafe Dulce several times. My wife and I really like their Hong Kong Tea Latte and their Matcha drink, as well as their various donuts and baked goods. In the morning rush they can be a little busy but the staff work hard. On a recent visit I saw people eating their steak breakfast burritos, so I ordered one for myself and a coworker. The burritos were reasonable size, the steak was seasoned well, and the breakfast burrito had potatoes in it (I only like breakfast burritos that have potatoes/hash browns/tots in it). Keep supporting the classics, not just because they've been around for a while, but because they have strong products and service.

    I've passed by this place so many times but haven't tried it out until recently! I really do like…read morethe pastries. So much variety here so there's definitely something for everyone. Mochi Twist ($5)-- Nice and dense mochi texture? I guess it's hard to describe but it's not hollow and airy like a typical donut. There's some chew to it. And it's not too sweet! Blueberry Roti ($4)-- Flaky crumble on top and blueberry jam?? YES YESSSS. I liked this so much I'd definitely go back for it. Blueberry jam is so underrated and it's rare to find it in a pastry! Makes for a good sweet lil treat. Hot latte ($5)-- Perfect!! No complaints. Not too milky, not too light. Good ratio. I was actually kind of worried ordering a latte because not every place does it right but it's good here! Iced blueberry matcha ($6?)-- I see lots of good things about this drink on here but ooooooof... it missed the mark and by a LOOOT too. It was green sweet cereal milk. Where's the matcha? Where's the blueberry? It was so confusing because I see the green and I know I ordered matcha... but it's just sweet milk! And it's not even blueberry flavored milk. Did they forget the blueberry jam? Syrup? Whatever they use? Because it just tastes like the milk after a bowl of Frosted Flakes or something like that. Very sad, very disappointing. Ended up tossing after a couple sips. ANDDD for those matcha purists this is NOOOT the place for you! They have it pre mixed in a milk gallon. So we just saw green milk coming out of a gallon into this cup like yeppppp ok expectations immediately lowered. Anyways, hot latte is good and the 2 pastries I got were good! Steer clear of the matcha!!!

Personally, I don't like that style, I was hoping the original would change that for me! Long story short, I didn't like the Walnut Chocolate Chip. I personally just don't like that style still, so I'll chalk it up as a "me" problem. The cooked part was good. The Rocky Road was cooked through. It was an amazing baked good with good flavor and add-ins. Between the roasted almond slices and fudgey chocolate chips, I was enjoying it immensely. A highlight of my day for sure.

It's relatively busy but the line moved swiftly. The Larchmont store was pretty lively with the crowded and colorful wall deco! It's pretty fun to see that they came up with more seasonal items lately and most of them nailed it well when they came to cookies. Previously the lemon one and the most recent was the Raspberry Pistachio which I was impressed by as I just fancied sweet and refreshing combo of white chocolate and raspberry. The pistachio added more texture to it for sure. Same as any Levain cookies, best enjoyed warm and fresh out of oven. The Cookie Milk Latte was actually the main reason bringing me here, yet I was bit let down by it as I was expecting more malty cookie flavor in the drink. I felt it tasted not much different to regular cream top latte with some cookie crumbles in it.

It's like a fancy filet o fish without the soggy bun, packed with amazing fried fish and tarter sauce. I'm just disappointed when they don't have this in stock, but sometimes they would make more, and that'll just be an extra wait. Downside is that I first tried the fish panini years ago and it was a bit better then, but it's still good currently. Other pastries I've tried here have been pretty good. They had some various buns with mochi inside, and those were great. Another one of my fave is their mentaiko salt bun. Great flavor, though I wish they would stuff the thing with more mentaiko. Their curry breads are good too. I took my daughter here and she got one with cute emoji drawn on, and she said the custard filling and the bread was tasty as well. I've tried some drinks here and they were alright. A friend was into their banana matcha when they have that in stock. Pretty simple layout here. Get in line and see the goods, then you reach the cashier and order and pay.

There were endless selection of salt bread and different flavoured buns which all looked delicious. As we were browsing and deciding, the lady at the counter was kind enough to offer us a sample of the butter rice cake. The butter tteok tasted pretty good on the spot so we bought a pack of 5 back home along with a hot and spicy salt bread and corn soboro. The butter rice cakes were already cold and hard when we got home, the inside was dense and chewy in a bad way. I didn't want them to go to waste so I tried reheating them in the over for a few minutes. It was warm but the texture never recovered, everything just got more dense and hard. The hot and spicy salt bread looked like a winner, but when we bit into it, the bread was just crunchy and overly buttery without a lot of flavour. The inside did not have the soft pillowy texture you'd expect from salt bread. The filling was a budget hot dog and some corn mixed with mayo. We cut the bread in half and my boyfriend said his piece had way too much mayo and mine barely had any. I grabbed the corn soboro thinking it would be delicious since it was corn season but was the most disappointed by it. I reheated the bread again to get the cookie top to crisp up. The soboro top didn't have a lot of crunch or flavour, it was just a layer of sweetness with no texture. The corn cream filling was not good, the corn was dehydrated and had no flavour at all. It honestly tasted a bit like canned corn that's over baked, I ended up scooping it out because the bread was better without it. Maybe it's better to go earlier when the baked goods are fresh and eat it there instead of taking it home.
