Blueberry matcha
Michelle W.

I recently tried Way Home Cafe and was pleasantly surprised. The cafe has a minimalistic design and unique interior. I ordered a blueberry matcha latte and it was delicious. It's definitely not your typical creamy matcha. It was lighter, more refreshing, and unique. The cups were also super round and adorable. The service was friendly and patient. I usually order my matcha less sweet, but I trusted the barista's recommendation and kept the sweetness as is. It was perfectly sweet in my opinion. I would definitely be interested in trying their other drinks and will be returning.

Way Home Coffee has been on my bookmarks for a while, so I was excited to finally check it out while I was in the area on a Thursday afternoon. Parking was surprisingly easy there were a couple of spots right in front but I can definitely see it being a challenge during busier times. Walking in, I was immediately impressed by how beautiful the space is. The aesthetic is thoughtfully done, with a calm, cozy vibe that makes it a great place to sit and stay awhile. There were a few people studying, and I especially loved the unique touch of the tree in the middle it really adds character. Service was great. Both baristas were friendly and welcoming (I feel bad I forgot their names even after asking!), but they truly made the experience better. For drinks, my friend ordered the sweet potato Einspanner latte and I got the blueberry latte. The sweet potato wasn't bad but wasn'tmy favorite, but the blueberry latte was actually really enjoyable definitely something different from your typical coffee shop offerings. I appreciate that they have unique, seasonal-style drinks that stand out. If I had one note, it would be the portion/serving style. The cups are wider and topped with cold foam, so it's a little hard to tell how much actual coffee you're getting.. Overall, it's a cool spot with a great vibe, friendly service, and creative drinks. I'd definitely come back and try something new again.

First thing I noticed was the nice Japandi decor. There is actually a good amount of seating inside (albeit uncomfortable lol) to hang out. I went on Friday afternoon and it was quiet. Parking is bad. It's located in a small strip mall with other businesses. Street parking almost nonexistent lol. Like everyone else was saying, the size of the cup is laughable. It is a bit wider than other cafe's. Matcha latte with cream top was A+!!! The cream top had a nice consistency and the matcha used was high quality!

Sweet potato Einspanner
Ann L.

What an unanticipated delight. Must try the sweet potato Einspanner friends. Just imagine a rich espresso drink crowned with a thick, lush, silky cream top that's naturally flavored with Korean goguma = sweet potato. The dried purple potato bits was just icing on top. Phenomenal!!! A must try, truly!!!

Creamsicle matcha and sweet potato latte
Ellen S.

landed at LAX and was in need for a coffee / matcha fix. Rave reviews from other yelpers, so definitely needed to give this place a try. It's a fairly large size shop with one big round table in the corner and bench seating on the perimeters as well as long benches making a square in the middle of the floor plan. It's bright and airy. Service is friendly and helpful as there's interesting flavor combinations and options. Got the seasonal creamsicle matcha and it was wonderful - refreshing, light with a perfect blend of fresh orange, cream/milk and matcha. Best as an iced drink, which means it's also beautiful and picture ready. this is seasonal, so get it before it's gone! also got the sweet potato Einspanner latte - super rich, robust espresso with a rich, creamy and slightly sweet cold foam. It tasted like a espresso milkshake. so good. so filling. This is on their regular menu as a specialty drink. Great place and will come back!

Steph P.

Loved everything about this place! Such friendly service, an incredible duo blueberry matcha latte, reliable wifi, good amount of seating with mini tables, and free parking. One small improvement would be lower the volume of music. The vibe is calm and serene but the music didn't match in my opinion and I had to use noise cancelling earphones so I could study. I can't wait to go back and try other drinks!

Iced banana latte with vanilla cold foam
Raumak R.

Who said you can't get good coffee in Westwood! I've lived in the area for years and have struggled to find a good coffee shop. I was super excited to see this new coffee spot that opened up in a little shopping center occupying the old coffee bean location. After some instagram snooping I quickly learned that although it's only been open for about a month it's quickly become a fave. Not your traditional basic coffee spot, this Korean inspired coffee shop was perfect. I tried the sweet potato einspanner and I asked them to make me a special request iced latte with banana and it was absolutely perfect! The staff were all super nice, welcoming and friendly. I'm so excited to have a new place for my daily coffee in my hood!

Cafe Interior (empty)
Maggie A.

Went on a Sunday at 10am. When I went the store was empty but by the time I left at 11am the store was packed and there was a line to order! Interior is nice and clean but only one dining table. The rest of the seats are benches and stand alone single tables - not a place for many groups to study but lots of seating for a quick chat with friends. Cereal Croissant - creamy filling with cinnamon cereal inside. Tasted good but wasn't a fan of the texture since the cereal got soggy from the filling. Coffee - forgot what I ordered honestly but tasted good! On the sweeter side but I usually drink black/cold brew so personal preference thing. Would encourage you to try their specialties though :) Overall good experience just very busy towards the end. Parking is also decent as they have a lot in front and the business around it are usually active more at night.

Creamsicle matcha latte
Jasmine V.

Love their creamsicle matcha latte! You can still taste a strong amount of matcha flavor even with the orange. It's a seasonal item and I'm already sad for when it's no longer on the menu! I hope it becomes a permanent item. The service is friendly and is quick. There's not much seating with only one full size table and a sprinkle of tiny drink tables so it's more of a grab and go spot for me.

Espresso Creamsicle
Jessica G.

Just like the cafe's name calls out, the ambiance gave that relaxing homey space. It suited solo visitor or 2-3 people group max per table and the place was pretty busy. Nonetheless, ordering process was speedy including getting the drinks ready. Their favorites appeared to be their specialty einspanner drinks as well as the seasonal menu particularly the creamsicle. We had their Sweet Potato Einspanner and Creamsicle Latte, both of which came with cream top, but surprisingly still let the bold coffee flavor stood out despite being very creamy at the same time so you got the two great things in one go. If you preferred something less creamy you might wanna go with the latter, but bear in mind the orange flavor was tad strong.

Matcha latte + matcha creamsicle latte
Emily T.

Decided to try out this new coffee/matcha spot 10 min away from UCLA! We ordered the matcha latte (comes unsweetened unless you add-on sweetener) w/ lavender syrup add-on + creamsicle matcha latte, both with whole milk. The lavender was kind of overpowering the drink, so I didn't really taste much of the matcha. I preferred the creamsicle matcha latte more--it's like a creamsicle in a drink format! I just wish that the matcha taste was stronger for both drinks, but I will say that for the creamsicle matcha, I could taste the matcha more. Neither drinks were overly sweet, so that is a plus. Parking was a breeze when we came on a Saturday morning. Service was super friendly and they also give out free stickers at the cashier! I liked the aesthetic of the cute cups; it may look small, but it's pretty wide and comparable in size to other Ktown drink portions (of course I would appreciate if the size was bigger though for the price you pay). The decor is cute and the vibes were nice, but I wouldn't recommend studying here. There seemed to be only 2-3 outlets, 2 of which were located in awkward locations that weren't too close to the tables. The tables themselves were quite small (think portable stand desk) and there's only one large table in the corner that would be optimal for doing work. This seems like a better spot to just chill and chat with friends!

Nice to finally have a Korean-style cafe out on the west side! It opened not too long and there is definitively still a crowd by the time I got there a little before 10AM ** Location: located in a shared plaza with a small but decent parking lot. I had no issues with finding parking in late morning even as I was leaving and the cafe for more crowded ** Ambiance: there's a decent amount of seating inside but limited in terms of "larger" tables if you're looking to work here. Mostly shared bench seating with a multitude of small side tables and I think I only saw one large today. Better place to just sit and chat than actually get work done imo but the music wasn't too egregiously loud amongst the background of chatter. The aesthetic reminds me much of the other Korean cafes in Ktown and in parts of Korea --woodsy/neutrals with organic shapes. Regardless, there was still a crowd. There was no line when I got there around 9:45 ish but by the time I left around 10 a pretty decent line formed ** Service: maybe it's the crowd and recent opening but it took quite long to get my drink -- it took a little maybe over 15 ish minutes for my one drink :( ** Pricing: even for LA prices the price was a bit steep for the size. The cup is rounded but it feels like maybe at most a 12Oz drink totaling to be 8.50 (one extra whole dollar just for whole milk). Not sure if I would come back regularly just for the price alone ** Drinks:: got the matcha creamsicle and while the citrus flavor was very fresh/does not taste artificial at all (was told that it's made fresh with tangerine peels and definitely takes like a creamsicle) if you like the taste of matcha to predominate would skip this novelty drink since the creamsicle flavor definitely overpowers the matcha. But if you're a fan of lightly sweetened and unique drinks then this is a fun one to try out. They have your classic cafe drinks along with other novelty drinks inspired by other popular Korea cafe trends like banana and sweet potato

Mandy A.

The lattes were very tasty and delicious. Not too sweet, perfectly done. They have small plaza parking, and seating inside. The interior atmosphere reminds me of Korean traditional vibe which was very soothing. Will come back again :)

Street parking is hard hard to find. :-( Came on a Saturday around 10:30 AM and it was PACKED, but the line moved surprisingly fast and we only waited around 10 minutes. We got the Matcha Maple Top and Okinawa Cold Foam Matcha. I was honestly really disappointed because I had heard great reviews!! The matcha was way too milky for my liking and lacked that strong matcha flavor I usually look for.... The Maple Top especially barely tasted like matcha at all. Matcha flavor got lost from the maple... The Okinawa Cold Foam was slightly better, but still not strong enough. If you like sweeter, milkier matchas this might be your thing, but I personally prefer a stronger matcha-forward drink. For around $8 a matcha, I expected a lot more. Unfortunately I don't think I'd come back.

We went for their Breakfast Burrito with avocado add-ons and loved how perfectly the eggs were cooked and well-complemented by the melted cheese.

ORDER 01. brown butter latte ("BBL"): house-made caramelized butter syrup (containing REAL butter), espresso, & milk 02. gold coast: eggs, beef & potato hash, avocado, pepper jack cheese, scallions, & cilantro crema in a whole wheat wrap i was worried the burrito might be too dry on account of the whole wheat or too greasy because of the hash, but it was neither dry nor greasy! all the ingredients came together beautifully. the burrito felt healthy and satiating, enough to feed two adults! note that this item is only available at the santa monica branch! the "gold coast" is the cafe's take on the california burrito, whereas "the six" is the cafe's take on the standard american breakfast. pick the former if you want something more savory. pick the latter if you want something more sweet. in any case, the hot sauce served on the side is a must!

This is one of my favorite Boba tea shops in Los Angeles. One small snafu on the most recent visit…read more- I ordered online and waited in the shop. They made the drinks but kept them behind the counter without calling the order aloud... finally went to check and found them there - so approach and ask for your drinks. Ordered the Black Sugar Assam - flavor was smooth, it was surprisingly sweet but not overly so (this drink has no sugar level to adjust). Boba were cooked just right and had great chew. I ordered it with less ice as my usual. Also ordered for a friend and didn't realize her drink came without boba so be sure to double check the menu as you order so you get toppings (or not) as you wish. FYI - they have a rewards program, join earn points, and get a birthday drink (discount) too! There's a small seating area inside, quiet music playing, and people working/studying (with a sign to use your indoor voice). Vibe is quiet and chill.

It was clean inside when I went by at 8 PM, not super busy, decent amount of seating/tables. There are a bunch of board games as well so seem like a nice place to drink boba and hang out.

Boba has pretty good texture -- not super mushy/overly soft, decent qq.
