Me and my college friends had such a good meal here. It was a going away party for one of our friends and when we had an error in our food order our server Thanos personally apologized and took the time to make sure we had everything else we could need. He made sure we were perfectly happy the entire time and the food was incredible. I would send a picture of my pulled pork sandwich but I ate it all. 10/10 vibes, beautiful colors and decorations. Wonderful staff he should get a raise read more

I was in the area and wanted to grab something quick for breakfast. So I ordered a bagel and smoothie for pick up. Omg, the bagel was soooo good! I chose the everything bagel with egg whites, turkey sausage, pepper jack and avocado. 10/10!! The smoothie was delicious as well, very refreshing. Since I just came in for pick up, I only really interacted with the cashier and he was very friendly. The inside was quite dim but loved that there's a lot of seats as well. Would love to come back and try more food items. read more

It's LA; parking is unfortunately going to be on the more difficult end. If you drive around the block, there may be street parking. Nature's Brew wasn't too difficult to find; there are also some short-term street parking (under1 hr) available right out front, and they also have a sign out front. Options for seating include outdoor patio and inside. The staff here are welcoming, and my Iced Latte was made to order, in hand within 5 minutes. The beans here are the perfect balance of nutty and a light hint of chocolate. Paired with milk, it was "just right" in terms of balance. Wi-Fi is available, and it was fairly easy to hop on. It does get a bit of traffic and noise, though, so I recommend a good pair of headphones if you need to lock in. read more

Sadly I have an update from my last review with some things me and my friends have noticed since coming to Natures Brew. We've seen some differences in the quality of our foods and drinks specifically our coffee orders. We're big fans of the USC Latte why we specifically come to Natures Brew, but the coffees have not been the same as of recently. We've had orders come out where we didn't know whose was whose cause they were messed up to be different sizes, the flavor has been lacking or it's sometimes too milky. I myself and friends have sent back the coffee because of its quality as well as the food. In store sandwich's have come not looking how thy use to be or when i've ordered for pickup had sandwich's comped switched. I ordered an egg sandwich on spinach and bacon and brie on wheat and had the breads switched to which I only discovered after eating half. I wanted to write this mainly because we love going to Natures Brew and are hoping if made aware some changes can be made so the experience is more enjoyable. read more

The bacon and eggs were kind of disappointing. The bacon was one strip and the toast was half a slice. Just overall, it was so tiny. The potatoes were also too salty. In addition, the breakfast item was $10 on the menu but it ended up being $13 something, so there is some upcharge somehow. I wouldn't mind coming back here for a drink but I do not recommend the food! read more

Very friendly neighborhood spot.... I hate going to Starbucks. I had a pleasant conversation with one of the ladies at the counter. I wish they opened earlier and had sugar free vanilla. But over all everything is delicious and it's a neighborhood spot which I love. read more

Meh. Bakery was good. The coffee was all right. But the breakfast sandwich was overdone, hard toast with overcooked eggs. Cashier was nice. Ambiance is nice. read more

Had the iced brewed mocha latte with an espresso shot. The beverage displayed true ingredients and they married well. The associate was very friendly and upbeat. He made our visit very welcoming. The ambiance was of a Seattle coffee shop and the temperature was perfect within the establishment. read more

Oat milk latte and a croissant. Just slightly below mid. My biggest qualm is the ambient noise here. Known for being a study spot but it was the opposite of quaint. Sounded like there was a malfunctioning engine drive train in the kitchen experiencing some major turbulence. I'm pretty sure the decibels exceeded 80+ at one point. read more

We went to Nature's Brew after running for coffee and breakfast. As soon as we walked in, I was impressed with the atmosphere. The atmosphere is warm, relaxed, and filled with the scent of freshly brewed coffee. The baristas really know their craft -- my latte was smooth, rich, and beautifully made. The food is just as good as the drinks. The breakfast egg sandwiches are fresh and hearty, and the wheat toast is easily one of the best -- perfectly seasoned with just the right crunch. Their pastries and muffins are baked to perfection and pair wonderfully with a latte. There's plenty of indoor seating, and the calm vibe was great for catching up with friends. Staff are friendly and genuinely care about making sure everyone has a good experience. We'll definitely be coming back to Nature's Brew. read more

The Berry Scone was really good, pretty large, so it was enough to last a while. The Snickerdoodle Ice Latte was great, not overly sweet, just enough to give a boost of energy. The menu looks great, lots of good options. The ambiance is great. Huge space and lots of tables to study, hangout, or have a small break. The works bring out the food to you if you dine in. I did have a super negative experience, as if they didn't care that I was there. I waited to look at the menu, then when to the register to order. Waited at least 5 minutes until I was recognized. I ordered my coffee, then asked about the scone. The worker rolled his eyes. After I ordered, he grabbed the pastry, and forced handed it to me like he was in a rush. He then began to service tables. So I understand, he was busy. In-between servicing, the barista made my drink and placed it next to him, no communication. She was just complaining about the customers to the other worker. This entire time, my drink is just waiting on the counter. The barista kept looking at me, saw that I was waiting, but didn't asked me until 12 minutes later. She asked if I was waiting for anything, and I told her that I was waiting for a latte. She said that she didn't get the ticket, and that she'll work on it as soon as she can. 3 minutes later, another worker came out of the restroom, saw my drink on the counter, and called it out. The barista goes, "oh, that's what happened. Oh wells." I want to give this place another try, maybe they are just not having a good day. But my experience overall was a missed. read more

Food is tasty, especially the vegan pastries! Shocker, yes, but try them. The service is pretty good, with minor order mistakes or forgotten silverware every once in a while. Though the place smells like burnt toast sometimes, it's a lovely little cafe to get some work done or meet a friend for lunch! read more

Had the best coffee here!!! The very friendly server (darn, I forget name) recommended the Snickerdoodle and made it less sweet with oat milk and it was fire! sooooo amazing. We also tried a kale Nutella cookie that was tasty. The vibe here is also super chill and cool. Some students on laptops or just people hanging out. We stayed longer than we thought because it was so cozy. I am coming back to try food and get that iced Snickerdoodle again, or maybe I'll go wild and try it hot next time. read more

This spot is the perfect place if you're looking for a spacious, quiet coffee shop to study or relax. The service was super friendly and welcoming. I loved the cozy and warm interior so much. Free WiFi, wide menu options for both food and drinks, and easy street parking. Their pumpkin spiced latte was phenomenal. Their egg sandwich did taste a bit bland but with my taste buds being not too picky, I was fine with it. read more

The atmosphere of this place is nice and the servers were nice. What this place gets 3 stars for is the pathetic serving of turkey on the $13 torched turkey sandwich. Attached are two photos to show the turkey doesn't even cover the bread and the bread was thicker than the turkey provided. Add to that, one person in our party didn't get their omelette until after the other seven people were finished eating. read more

Pros: Phenomenal food. The chef/cooks go way too hard for being a small coffee shop. All the sandwiches and meals are really good. Great baristas too. Just courteous, normal, hard working individuals that can make you a mean latte. Cons: The location and vibe is a little dark and dingy, but not holding it against them as the building they're in looks to be 100+ years old. However, they have outside seating. Parking can occasionally get annoying, but not hard to find an open spot. They seem to be cool with dogs BUT don't push it. I have a large german shepherd and they're OK with me coming inside to order but I usually sit outside with him because he's too big and restless indoor. Smaller or medium sized dogs (that aren't yappers) I'm sure are welcome. read more

I ordered a decaf today and they gave me caffeinated had panic attacks all afternoon.

Place seems like a good place to work. Food is fresh and delicious. Workers are really kind.

This is a good place to have some breakfast. Had to do some work and decided to come here since I was in the area. I had the veggie quiche and a coffee. It was very filling and good. I like that they give you a little side salad. The cashier was helpful when I took a while to decide. They have a good amount of breakfast and lunch options. Wifi works great here and if you're not bothered by music while working, it's a great place to work. read more

First and foremost, I had higher expectations for a joint owned by Bacari, because Bacari is great and still is great despite my experience here (I've only been to Bacari on third, not the one next to Nature's Brew though). My boyfriend and I both thought the best part of our meals were our drinks The pain au chocolate wasn't bad by any means, there was an almond on it but I don't care about that. The iced coffee was great. The herb omelette is a different story. Those eggs were overcooked, thin, and dry as anything. My boyfriend found the sourdough stale (he got the tofu scramble with sourdough toast). My main gripe was the service though. Very dismissive server (I'm sure the rest are fine, and maybe my server was just having a bad day, but I'm going off my honest experience). Whenever I talked she didn't seem to make eye contact with me, but did to my partner, and when I asked where the bathroom was, she just said yup and waved down the hallway. I get you're just doing your job, but from one food service employee to another, just be mindful of the impression you leave. Would've gotten at least three stars if the service was better. read more

Terrible! I ordered one of their sandwiches for 14. It was basically one slice of turkey and nothing else. The "chef" was more interested in jacking off with his co-worker instead of doing his job. Salad came with no dressing and he was pissed when I asked for it to go. The cashier was good and professional. Hard pass. read more

Service 10/10, drinks 10/10, atmosphere 10/10! A great place, near USC, to do work of catch up with friends. I loved how you can make your own juice blend - I did beet, apple, carrot, & orange and it was so fresh and delightful. If you check in on Yelp, you get a free cookie, so my friend got the chocolate chip and I got the lemon coconut. The lemon coconut is a MUST-super tarty & very coconuty. The workers are so friendly and it's a warm, cozy place to study at! read more

Unbelievably good! I love the coffee, fresh and yummy. However, Chef Brian puts great care in his breakfast burritos. The one I had today was in a tomato burrito wrap. It was delicious!! You can always add a hot sauce if that's your thing or extra salt, but the fresh ingredients, the care in the presentation he delivers, makes the taste of the food even better! The rest of the staff are pleasant, accommodating, and warm. They totally feel like your neighborhood Coffee Shop. read more

Hi there! I was craving an iced coffee and tuna sandwich spot, I know - nothing fancy. But this cafe is perfect for a quick snack and coffee drink. I noticed it was mostly filled with college students so there was a very studious environment. I loved the food - it hit the spot and was healthy. The service was fast but I'd take into consideration that it's mostly students serving you, so I'm sure that's not very consistent. But it was fast and straightforward for me! Would definitely recommend read more

We ate here a few weeks ago and the food, chai tea, coffee were delicious. I've actually been craving the chai. it was amazing! Finally got to go again this morning and the chai tea was absolutely horrible. Nothing like a couple weeks ago. Watered down, warm (not hot), it didn't even taste like chai. Not much flavor at all. It was actually undrinkable. We were on the road to San Diego and couldn't turn around for them to fix it. So disappointing. Not sure we'll go back. read more
