Very delicious iced breve macchiato -- essentially a creamy, slightly sweetened latte (my favorite kind). It was in a cute tiny cup. Love the branding and the attention to detail at the store. The staff were super friendly and the vibe inside is nice but there isn't a ton of seating inside. It was only a few spots at the counter, standing room style. Fortunately rodeo is right around the corner so perfect for strolling around with a yummy coffee. read more

Iced Vanilla Bean Flat White is my Maru Order. This is a great balance for an iced latte. Not many of their items are good, but this one definitely checks all my boxes. Their other coffees are usually way too bitter for my liking. This Vanilla Bean Flat has a great ratio of sweetness to coffee taste. The Yuzu Lemonade is a good mid-day refresher. It comes sparkling so you get that bubbly kick. If you like lemonade, you'd probably like this drink too! read more

I wrote this and sent it to Maru@marucoffee.com and roy@marucoffee.com on 9/23/26 but I haven't heard back as of yet. Dear Maru Espresso Bar Team, I'm writing because I had a very disappointing experience at Maru on 9/23/26 especially as someone who has been a loyal customer and goes out of my way to purchase your coffee despite not even being a coffee drinker. Maru's Cream Top is actually the only coffee I drink. Because I start work very early--before Maru opens--I have developed a routine of coming in the day before, purchasing two Cream Tops, having them made without ice and with heavy cream, taking them home, refrigerating them overnight, and bringing them with me to work the following morning. It is extremely inconvenient for me to have to make a special trip before 5 p.m., carry two drinks home, and plan around your hours, but I do it because I genuinely love the coffee. Over the past few days, however, I have had several frustrating interactions with the staff regarding this very simple request. Two days ago, I went in after work and was told by the young woman taking my order that the Cream Top could not be made without ice. Yesterday, I was unable to come in because I got off work too late. Today, I stopped by during lunchtime and ordered my coffee with ice because I was drinking it immediately, and I also purchased a pastry. Later, after work, I returned specifically to purchase two Cream Tops to take home for the next morning. I again asked for them without ice. I was told no. I even asked in Korean after seeing Korean-speaking staff, trying to explain exactly why I needed them without ice. Despite explaining the situation, I continued to receive pushback rather than any effort to accommodate a longtime customer. Because I had to transport the drinks home, I also asked for a coffee carrier that would securely hold the drinks. The employee gave me a different type of tray. I specifically asked if he could give me the carrier that more securely holds the cups because, as I explained to all three employees, I had to take the drinks home and was concerned about them spilling. I was told that you had run out and that this was the only carrier available. Unfortunately, the result was exactly what I had been trying to prevent. There was an excessive amount of ice, and somehow the drinks melted and spilled all over the bag I was carrying them in. I have never had a coffee spill all over my bag like this before. What was most upsetting was not simply that the drinks spilled. It was the overall attitude and lack of willingness to help. I understand that businesses have policies and that there may be operational reasons for certain things, but the way a reasonable customer request is communicated matters. I was not asking for anything complicated or unreasonable. I was simply trying to purchase the same coffee I regularly buy in a way that allows me to safely take it home and drink it the next morning. I really love Maru's coffee, which is why I continue to make the effort to come back despite the inconvenience. I hope you will take this feedback seriously and speak with the team about customer service, communication, and finding reasonable solutions for customers rather than simply pushing back on requests. I would appreciate hearing from someone regarding this experience, particularly because I would like to continue being a Maru customer but do not want to have another experience like this. read more

Since I tried Maru Coffee, I knew I had to stop at the espresso bar as well. From what I know, the espresso bar features more of their special coffee drinks. When we arrived, there was a line flowing out the door. There's no seating apart from a small waiting bench inside this location as it's a grab n go spot. When we got up to the front, the barista was helpful in answering our questions and taking our order. I ordered the vanilla bean latte and my friend took the iced oat flat white. 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! read more

Tiny coffee shop, but the KINGS of coffee in the BH area. There's almost always a line here (and for good reasons), but service is prompt so the wait is generally not too bad. There's no tables for sitting; all orders are take-out only to keep the lines moving. Staff are always welcoming, friendly and in a good mood. The interior is clean, warm, wood-accented, and minimalistic. They sell a few merch, including whole beans from their high-altitude source and Fellow products. They seriously know how to extract the perfect espresso here at Maru. Each cup, no matter which option you go with is balanced, silky and rich in flavor. 1. Espresso Con Panna (5/5) One of their signature drinks containing double espresso with cacao powder and their signature smooth, cream top. Lightly sweet, not bitter or acidic. It has a hint of tangy spice to it which I just loved. 2. Iced Breve Macchiato (5/5) A tiny, but mighty cup of double espresso poured over their signature velvety cream and milk. Aesthetically pleasing to look at, even more amazing to the tastebuds as the warm espresso plus the occasional coldness from the 1 large ice cube they place at the bottom of the cup. They also sell a few pastry items here such as croissants and matcha donut. I opted to try the Matcha donut, which was moist and has a spongy texture. It was not sweet and had a subtle matcha flavor. It paired well with the drinks. Highly recommend this place if you're in the area!!! read more

Okay, so I really wanted to like this coffee spot. However, I felt it was highly overrated. I came on A Sunday afternoon, the line was not as long as usual, so I decided to try it out. As someone who was born and raised in LA and currently lives on the Westside, I have tried my fair share of coffee shops from the SFV to the city. Our family told us we must try this place, and recommended the iced breve machiato and the mocha latte. We decided to grab some espresso beans for the house, which were $36.... for coffee beans! The Iced Breve Macchiato w/ Whole Milk: 2.5/5 The Mocha w/ Oat: 3/5 The espresso beans were light, so not my favorite. I definitely like more of a dark roast flavor. I want to try it again and give it a second chance. read more

This coffee shop here in Beverly Hills, called MARU ESPRESSO BAR is always packed, there's no day that I've passed here that there is no long line. I got intrigued, what's the Hype? I went inside and it's a very small area, so that could be the reason why there's always a long line, but maybe not 'coz it's still like a never ending line here every time we pass by. I lined up and tried their SIGNATURE COFFEE the CREAM TOP. Got my drink quickly since they have many employees making the drinks. So I finally tried it and the hype is real, I can taste the good quality of their coffee here. Parking is tough here, it's one of the busiest areas of Beverly Hills since there are plenty of restaurants nearby. But they do have a couple of Parking structures around, parking that offers valet parking, but mostly Street parking. read more

This place is small but mighty - can't think of another way to describe it. The storefront is tiny, if there's a line it will probably go out the door. The drinks were amazing - the cream top lived up to expectations, it had the right sweetness, and was perfectly creamy/smooth. It looked like they allow customizations, as the customer before us ordered extra cream top. It's also situated right next to the fountain courtyard in Beverly Hills, so there is a place to sit, relax and enjoy your coffee. Definitely want to come back! read more

Maybe I didn't order the right drink, but I thought my drink was ok. I got the cream top and the cream top is definitely delicious, but once the cream top is not there, that's when the drink starts to downfall. Friendly service. There was a line but to be honest if there wasn't a line, I probably wouldn't have found it so quickly. This place is small. The line moved fast. It was about twenty minutes in total - walking there (short distance), standing in line, ordering, getting the drinks and walking back to the car. Finding a parking spot was difficult, but I'm glad I finally got to try this place. read more

This location is a cute little grab-and-go spot right in front of the Maybourne. It was my first time visiting, and I had a great experience. The barista at the register was incredibly friendly and took the time to walk me through the menu and offer drink recommendations. I ended up trying the Cream Top -- a bold iced coffee topped with a sweet cream foam inspired by an Einspänner. A great spot for a coffee on the go with excellent service. read more

Maru Coffee Bar is a solid stop if you're in the area and want something strong and well-made. Street parking was surprisingly easy, and even though it was a bit busy, the wait wasn't long at all. The cashier wasn't the friendliest, but the baristas definitely made up for it--they clearly know what they're doing. The cream top was so good, and the coffee itself was bold and smooth. Just don't expect to hang out for long, there's no seating. Overall, clean aesthetic and quick in-and-out vibes. read more

Great coffee option in BH. I got the famed cream top (iced), which was tasty. The sesame pretzel croissant was possibly even better. Would try the vanilla bean flat white next time. They also just opened a location of Maru in NYC, so I'll have to check that out soon. 4.5 stars. read more

I've been to this coffee shop twice last month -- and that says a lot considering I live over 20 miles away! It's absolutely worth the drive. The coffee is top quality -- rich, smooth, and perfectly crafted every time. The cream top is fresh and complements the coffee so well. You can truly taste the care and attention in every cup. On top of that, the customer service is consistently friendly and welcoming. The staff makes you feel appreciated and remembered, which makes the whole experience even better. Great coffee, and genuinely kind service -- I'll definitely keep making the drive back. read more

Cream top is a must-try if you like sweet coffees- it did not overshadow the aromatic coffee at all. Service was great and line moved pretty fast, so don't let that turn you away! read more

My sister and I recently stumbled upon this place on a trip to Beverly Hills and we loved it so much we went twice. The first time we went, she got a cream top and I got an iced vanilla bean flat white. We both agreed that my drink was better, and we were really impressed with the quality. We kept seeing people with small cups and were wondering that drink that was since so many people had it. Since it was so good, we decided to go back the next day. My sister got an iced vanilla bean flat white, and I got the elusive iced breve macchiato in the small cup. WOW the iced breve macchiato blew us away it was so amazing. One of the best coffee drinks we have ever had. The small size is perfect because it is so rich. If you come here, you need to get the iced breve macchiato for sure. read more

My husband and I are coffee lovers and base our coffee bar off elite beans and Italian coffee. Maru exceeded my expectations. The flavor is exceptional and choices are perfect. Their version of a croissant is better than a croissant. Just the right size and filling is perfectly sweet. There is a reason that the line is out the door. We went twice a day some days it's that good!! You won't be disappointed if you like excellent coffee. read more

Small coffee shop with a minimalistic modern vibe. The cream top ($6.75) is their signature drink. It can come hot or iced, and as the name suggests, it's a creamy sweetened foam that sits atop the coffee. I'm personally a big fan of vanilla, so opted for the vanilla bean flat white ($6.75). Drink wasn't super sweet and the vanilla flavor was distinct. I also liked seeing the flecks of vanilla bean! Would highly recommend either drink. read more

As far as quality goes, Maru has probably the best espresso I've ever consumed in my life. It's so smooth and the flavors are perfect. I find most places overheat their espresso or don't brew at all constant temperature causing the espresso to burn even a little. The espresso here is so delicious and worth standing in a long line for. The aesthetic for this location is minimalist which I love, there are a couple spots to sit down while you wait. The staff works pretty fast considering the demand they deal with as the line is constantly out the door and wrapped around the corner. This location has metered parking so be prepared for that. read more

Such a cute coffee spot, with a line out the door, and I can see why. We waited a good 10 min on a Saturday morning, but it was so worth it. I got the Iced Breve Macchiato, and hubby got the Cream Top and the Espresso. ALL were great coffees and really yummy. That cream thing they put on top is seriously unforgettable. I'll come back for sure! read more

One of the best coffees I've had in a while. I got the signature cream top and the ice breve macchiato. I definitely enjoyed the macchiato more and it tasted so good. Reminded me of coffee I've had in Korea. Definitely will be craving it and coming back here when I'm in the area. I came on a Sunday and there was a line out the door. It does move fast though. The staff makes the coffee as fast as possible as well. It's a small espresso bar so there's not much space for you to enjoy the coffee inside. It's more of a place to get your coffee and go. read more

My routine is always an Iced Oat Milk Latte. I love the vibe of Maru Espresso Bar. It's not a sit and stay type place, more grab and go, and then can enjoy the walkable scenery around The Maybourne Hotel area. I do wish they would do a proper latte size and not a small cappuccino or flat white style size though. The iced latte feels like 8-10 oz world. This is Community Goods style sizing. It's delish, but it's so small. So it's not a regular coffee visit routine for me, but enjoy it every once in a while! read more

The cream-top espresso is absolutely magnificent! Perfect blend of delicious cream, ice and 2 shots of espresso. I have never tasted a coffee beverage that was so unique and absolutely mind altering. No, one doesn't hallucinate but your taste buds open to flavor not experienced before and ignites your brain. 5 stars easy! read more

The cream top by itself is so good!! Took awhile for it to mix with my coffee so I was enjoying it by itself for a while. But mixed it is really good but who doesn't like sweetened heavy cream. The drink size is a 12 oz so not the biggest serving but price wise it wasn't a $7 cup. There is a structure next to it that is free for up to 2 hours. read more

Okay I wasn't expecting it to live up to the hype but... it did. The coffee is rich, smooth, and the iced vanilla latte I got was perfectly balanced with the espresso and milk. I only wish they did their famous cloud cream in a non dairy version because it looked great. They charge .75 for oat milk which feels tacky for a fancier cafe since nowadays many places don't upcharge and all the milks are pretty much the same price. No bells and whistles here - just a very thoughtfully made lattes. And lots of men packed behind the coffee bar working away! I'd definitely go back! read more

Maru Coffee has been in my bookmarks for a long time so I was really looking forward when I saw this cafe while being in the area. They didn't have any matcha latte though We ordered Vanilla Bean Flat White with extra milk on the side and Cream Top. The cream was so delicious. The coffee on my Cream Top wa very smooth. We definitely loved our drinks. We were so excited that we didn't get to take photos of our drinks. The queue was somewhat long when we got there. We were in line for 10 minutes and our drinks came in less than 5 minutes or so. There were only limited seats inside the cafe. read more
