You can also tell that a lot of care and thought went into designing this space. I'm obsessed with the blue tile and the perfectly coordinated retail wall. While I was here, I saw such a wide variety of customers, which I loved. You can tell everyone is welcome and that people genuinely feel comfortable spending time here. Lastly, I wanted to shout out the two employees working on 7/31 around 8:00 a.m ("BigVee" & a gentleman with longer hair who made my avocado toast) They were both so friendly and welcoming. It was early, so I would've understood if they were still waking up, but they were both bubbly, kind, and made my morning a little brighter. If a manager sees this, please let them know how amazing they are!

The good: I discovered Haya Coffee at a farmer's market in…read moreRedondo Beach but ran into them again at Wilson Park's farmer's market. I had an espresso tonic that tasted great. I usually don't like these spritzer coffee drinks but the coffee base was really nice and smooth. I liked it so much that I came back and bought some grounds as a birthday gift for my brother! You can buy their grounds online as well. The prices are fair. The menu is simple and straight forward. The bad: They're only located in farmer's market. They should open a store front! The interesting: There was a sign that explained what Haya meant (sorry, forgot what it was), but at the time, my Japanese nanny said that Haya didn't mean that in Japanese.

Wow that is some fresh coffee! I've been using Haya's medium roasts in my morning espresso routine…read morewhich has produced really tasty shots with great crema. I usually have at least two bags stocked at all times. I also really respect that Haya has kept the prices very reasonable given the economic climate and I really appreciate it.

You walk in and the cozy…read moreatmosphere wraps around you like a warm feeling just trying to enjoy a peaceful cup of coffee. The baristas are friendly, fast, and somehow always in a good mood, with good vibes. The crowd is a fun mix of students, remote workers, and mysterious characters who look like they're plotting their next great invention. The caramel macchiato is the star of the show, balanced, smooth, and sweet enough to make you feel good. The mocha, a flavorful sidekick with rich chocolate notes that punch through like a well‑timed flavor to the palate. And beware, the chocolate croissant is a rare artifact. If you don't get there early, it's gone, probably stolen by someone with excellent taste. A charming hideout for anyone who loves good drinks, good people, and a little everyday magic. Miguel C.

I want to give 1 star just out of sheer disappointment but I won't because the staff was nice and…read morequick and the overall vibe is great. They got free WiFi. Iced turon latte was the complete opposite however. I could not tell where the coffee started and the sugar ended. It was a sweet milky drink with a bitter edge that very closely resembles what you might get from Starbucks. The cherry on top--it was $9.38. That's an absurd price tag for a 16oz swill. I was also taxed. My understanding is cold to-go drinks are not taxed in CA. This was a cold, to-go order. Maybe a POS error, maybe local laws I don't know but please double check. I'm never taxed at sbx for a similar order.

COME HERE IF YOU LOVE SPECIALTY COFFEE…read more DO NOT COME HERE IF YOU LOOK FOR: PRETTY LOOKING/LAYERED SUGAR BOMB DRINKS (nothing wrong with that though! Just wanting to help with expectations if you've never been here.) This place serves purely traditional coffee. I'm new to living in this area in LA (I come from Orange County) and have been trying to visit the coffee shops out here. So far, this is THE BEST from what I've tried so far in terms of specialty coffee. (I don't have a long list that I've visited yet) It's quite refreshing actually, to see a coffee shop that's PURELY specialty coffee. No frills or thrills, just traditional basics done well. Decor is great. I tried the emerald series espresso as a flat white (two of them) which is marketed as rare and exotic. I didn't want to read much too much into it at the moment. I was just wanting my caffeine fix. Both together came out to around $17 (oof!) They at least handed us 2 oz samples of coffee. Presentation of the drinks were done well. You can tell that they really care about the craft because we were waiting unnecessarily long on a slow day. I over heard a 'How did that pull?' while waiting. I appreciate the care.

Drove by here a bunch of times and always had on my list to try. Today was finally the day, as I…read morewas going to try a different coffee shop, but they had no parking. I was able to nab a spot almost out front for this shop. The workers are nice. Although, the issue I had was the guy making the drinks tried to give my pastry to another customer. Also, there was a female customer he knew that would not stop talking to him. She seemed to be flirting with him and distracting him. Like gurrrrrl, stop you are gonna make him mess up my order and wasting time because he's going slower to talk to you. He already seemed to be behind on orders.

Absolutely loved this coffee shop! The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and full of character. I…read moreespecially loved the beautiful artwork, the coffee bags used as part of the décor, all the plants, and the little community library by the window. You can tell there is so much culture and thought behind the space. The coffee selection is great, and the staff made the experience feel even more welcoming. It's a perfect spot to enjoy a good cup of coffee, relax, study, or simply spend some quiet time. Definitely a hidden gem and a place I'll be coming back to!

There's a lot I want to say about this spot but I'm a try and keep it short lol…read more My first time visiting was this past Sunday, May 31st. I had my whole day planned out with a list of events to attend but first I wanted to stop by Patria and grab some coffee to start my morning off. Located in a parking lot next to Wilson Park on Compton Blvd and Alameda Street you'll find this nice cut lawn in front of this small white building, Patria Coffee Roaster. Depending on your time of arrival, the parking lot can be full but it's cool cuz there's also street parking available. I was able to park in the lot. After walking in I was welcomed and greeted with positive energy from 2 young ladies who I forgot their names but we'll just call them "A" and "C" lol. A guy to my right was sitting next to the window working on his laptop. And two others against the wall sipping their coffees and doing whatever on their phones. A customer was at the register ordering while another customer walked in to stand in line behind me. I let her go in front of me while I took pics and recorded footage. I like the atmosphere and space a lot. It has a very nice decor. Artwork, pictures and murals with history displayed along the walls. Grab and cold drinks available for purchase. Nice music playing that wasn't too loud but just right to complement a chill coffee shop vibe. "A" was friendly and patient as shared with her this was my first visit. As I browsed thru the coffee menu before making my selection I noticed more costumes coming in. I ordered a medium sized Americano which is $3.75 but I requested to add some hazelnut creamer as well as some almond milk which totaled out to $4.75 which was quite exceptional to me. Giving the location, the quality of service and the quality of the coffee. Not to mention to overall experience. I even thru in a $1 tip. I support the business and love the space. It feels welcoming and safe. The restroom was clean. They also have many different events held there. If you're ever in the area definitely pull up and check em' out. It's black owned as well. I actually ended up sitting there in the lot sipping my coffee while working on my video to post on social media. The coffee was good and tasteful. Didn't need any sugar. Great vibes and great coffee. You can even go the park right next door and get your steps in or just chill. I definitely recommend coming here. If you're passing thru the area or coming to the city, do yourself a favor and pull up. Check em' out. Grab you a coffee or something. Prices are reasonable and the community is welcoming to all individuals.

It's a locally owned coffee shop, the owner is super nice and has done well with the business. Expanding to several locations.

We frequent all of their locations, they didn't have to and it was such a nice gesture. It made my day, bc spilling a full cup of coffee you just bought is so frustrating. They have great business acumen and customer service.

Not sure why a full tip is expected (I am continually baffled by the rise in demands for a full tip for basic services, not a sit-down meal). From my personal point of view, the coffee was great, nice place, but not a good value for the premium price paid.

Came here to knock off another coffee shop off our list in long beach…read more Location wise it's not in a nice bougie part of long beach let's get that out of the way. Get 2nd Street vibes out of your head. If you want good coffee and solid pastries then this is a spot to visit. There's not a lot of seating inside but enough to accommodate a few small groups. They do have a nice little patio out back if you have dogs with you and it has parking as well. All in all a solid spot good drinks and pastries which is what you're coming here for. I got the matcha tonic, it's very refreshing just make sure to mix it well. My partner got a capuchino. I don't remember what pastries we got but I remember it was nice and savory.

The last time I visited, we walked in and weren't greeted or acknowledged at all. We were just standing there waiting to be helped while the employees were standing around. I would also suggest improving the cleanliness. I understand the place gets pretty busy, but there should always be time to keep it looking a little cleaner. On the positive side, there's plenty of space to sit and enjoy your coffee, relax, and they also have outdoor seating. Overall, the coffee is great, but the customer service and cleanliness could use some improvement.
