OMG, one of my dear friends and I were on Pacific trying on dresses for an upcoming wedding and was deciding on if we wanted to go have cocktails or coffee afterwards. We finally decide on Coffee and walk in to Casa de Cafe! Instantly we're were greeted with a huge smile and a nice young Man saying "Welcome in, Ladies!" The dining/seating area was decorated nicely, smelled good, had Nice Latin Music playing softly ( love that it wasn't too loud ) and was ABSOLUTELY SPOTLESS!!! We decided on trying their Turkey Croissant and a Latte (hot). Everything is super fresh, made to order and honestly we could have split the meal Bkz they give you a lot, so come hungry!! The croissant was so light and buttery, and I like how it comes on fresh dark greens (lettuce) and I added avocado to mine bkz y'all know I detest Mayo it was served with a little cup of Heaven.. I mean soup and the Latte was pure perfection! We all need to support more local owners/Chefs and I am proud to say that they just gained a new fan and customer for life!!! It's a great place to meet up on a Sunday morning w/your Mama or Auntie and have a nice bite to eat and Coffee/Lattes too! Or just meet up w/your Comadre like I did and catch up! They serve these big beautiful Crepes too, and they looked AAAHHHHHMAZING, so I'm definitely gonna get one the next time I'm in town. They're served with fresh bananas & strawberries and they offer an adorable little Pink Marshmallow hanging above it ( ask Em to toast it for you! ) Sorry this was so long, but I told them I would be definitely Yelping about em and being honest

Anyhow, my family and I were driving back home after participating in a hiring event for my son (first paid job -- so proud of him!) We were all hungry and since we were in a part of town we had not been to before did a quick search. Decided on "The Neighborhood Cafe" and headed over! We were greeted by " The Los Angeles Gentlmen" motorcycle club -- couldn't have been nicer! Then we walked in and were greeted warmly by the owner and his daughter, Cheryl. We were immediately seated and made comfortable. Cheryl took our orders and could not have been nicer/friendlier. Very spacious and cute atmosphere. Ordered and after a little bit of a wait (Due to food made to order BTW!) I had the absolute best chicken and waffles ever. IT WAS A 1/2 CHICKEN seasoned to perfection -- flavorful and juicy! The waffle was clearly homemade and also flavorful. The hot honey was a sweet/spicy welcome addition. My family also REALLY enjoyed their dishes!! We live on the westside so we will not be able to get over as often as we would like :( BUT I work near downtown so I can see me grabbing take home every once and awhile! I was just telling my wife I want to go back and get that again!! :) :) :) For those of you visiting the area looking for delicious food and a wonderful atmosphere, I highly recommend "The Neighborhood Cafe". For those of you who live in the area either go or go BACK and support this gem!

And the time we waited for two drinks was 28 minutes from the time we got in line, (with no one ahead of us in line) not worth it at all The girls were friendly but they were not efficient in service. They advertise chisme in form of little post it notes but you can't actually write any chisme in yourself. They might have run out of post it notes but who knows. The coffee shop was pretty and low lit which I appreciate but it was very small and felt kind of cluttered. They have outdoor seating tho. Paid $18.58 just to toss my coffee in the trash.... Im a bit of a coffee snob so please take this review with a grain of salt.

For years I've driven by this place on Firestone, which merges into Manchester Boulevard, and I…read morealways loved the logo. I'd think, "There's a spot in my own neighborhood I can eat at without driving to Downey or Downtown LA." But for some reason it was never my first thought. I think it's because when I'm going out to eat, I usually want to escape my own area. Today I finally gave it a try, and I was sincerely impressed. I walked in and was greeted right away. I asked a few questions about the menu and requested a substitute, and I didn't get any weird looks or pushback, which honestly happens more often than you'd think in 2026. The walls had beautiful artwork, and my server, Kevin, was fantastic. He checked in every few minutes to make sure I had everything I needed, and it felt genuine, not like he was just going through the motions for a tip or a paycheck. You can tell the difference. I ordered the horchata French toast with fresh fruit and a lavender latte, and the presentation was next level, the kind of plating you'd expect in Beverly Hills, Century City, or parts of Polanco, Mexico. It was beautiful, the food was excellent, and I was taken care of every step of the way. I'm writing this review because this place deserves to be seen and deserves to keep growing. I'm not compensated in any way, shape, or form, this comes straight from the heart. If you've been sleeping on this place, give it a try. It's not in the flashiest part of LA, and I'm okay with that since I live in the area, but once you step inside, you're transported somewhere else entirely. Don't sleep on this place. Give them a shot and you'll find yourself coming back sooner than you expected.

Meter parking in the front and free shared parking can be found in the back. Ambiance/Decor: Neat ambiance with furnishings inside and in their outdoor patio. Service: Service is great. The staffers are friendly, attentive, and efficient in what they do. I get my drinks in a decent time. Drink Of Choice: I normally get the rice and beans drink with half sweet and no whip cream. The drink is a blended frappe made with a coffee base, sweetened horchata flavor (which is traditionally rice-based), ground espresso beans, chocolate, and topped with whipped cream and a cinnamon dusting. The drink is super good and like how they put some of the expresso bean grinds on the bottom to add some texture to the drink.

For May, TLC Coffee Co. was featured. This vendor had a cute setup and it was a sweet duo of mom and daughter. Ya'll already know lavender drinks are my thing of the moment so I had the iced honey lavender latte. I could not taste any honey but the lavender syrup, which is homemade, was good. The coffee beans, however, just didn't come through on this drink though, hence the three . So, for me it was just another latte lacking that sparkle I look for in my coffee. Glad I got the chance to try this vendor but I wouldn't seek them out at further events.

It has that small, local neighborhood feel that I always appreciate. Parking can be a little tricky. There's no stopping right in front of the cafe, but I found parking down the block. They do have a back door, and I noticed quite a few customers coming in from that side, so they may have parking in the back. My first impression wasn't the best because the tables needed some attention, especially with the cafe being pretty empty when I arrived. I did a mobile order and it took about 30 minutes, but I ordered food too, so I completely understand that food orders can take a little longer. I ordered: Chicken Mole Burrito $9.50 Papas con Chorizo Burrito $6.75 Café de Olla $6.50 Mexican Mocha with cold foam $7.25 I usually stick with a Spanish latte, but I wanted to try something different. The Mexican mocha wasn't really for me, but the Café de Olla was pretty good! Now the FOOD... 10/10! The burritos were so good and had that authentic, homemade Mexican flavor. I honestly never thought I would say I had some of the best chicken mole from a coffee shop, but here we are! The mole had so much flavor, and I would absolutely go back just for the food. The staff seemed a little tired or maybe just having a long day, so the service felt a little quiet. I also overheard that they stop serving food at 11 AM, so definitely keep that in mind if you're going specifically for the food. There's something special about finding authentic Mexican food in a neighborhood coffee shop. The food was definitely the highlight for me, and I'd come back to try more from their menu!
