It's also quite pleasant to spend time inside or outside where I enjoyed my coffee with some friends. One of my friends even got some beans to go! This is a very cool small business, and I saw that they have a DTLA location now, so will have to check that out.

In addition, I had some concerns about the bathroom (which they handled immediately), however because I thought it was a managerial issue, I informed Liz, an employee, to get the person in charge for me. She stayed true to their protocol of trying to handle the issue herself, but I persisted multiple times. Eventually she complied. I spoke with the manager who came possibly from a break and listened intently and the referred me to another employee, Mike. Through the entire experience no one seemed agitated, no one was short with me; it felt like a normal and meaningful conversation despite the breach of protocol because of my perseverance. So kudos to the staff on 5/20/26 around 5pm. particularly Liz and Mike for handling a precarious situation with tact and customer-friendly service. The shift lead at 6:30 fixed drinks and at the same time entertained my concluding conversation about my experience along with telling me the employees' names and how to report my experience for about 5 minutes! Awakening - The In and Out of the cafe business and their lounge dwarfs any eatery out there!

Visited Mai Coffee on a Sunday, and it was packed -- definitely a popular neighborhood spot…read more Ordering took a little longer than expected because one of the kiosks was out of service, but once we placed our order, the drinks came out surprisingly fast. The space is one of the highlights. There's plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors, making it a great place to hang out, work, or catch up with friends. The Wi-Fi was solid, and the atmosphere felt welcoming and lively. The staff were also incredibly friendly throughout our visit. Mai specializes in Vietnamese coffee and matcha drinks, along with a selection of baked goods. My recommendation is to stick with what they do best: coffee and matcha. If you're a fan of dark roast coffee with a strong, bold flavor, you'll probably love their drinks. I tried the Banana Coffee, which was excellent and easily my favorite item of the visit. I also ordered the Mochi Mango drink, which unfortunately wasn't for me. I'd give it about a 2.5/5. The mochi texture felt off, and the mango flavor tasted more like syrup than real mango. That said, I'm comparing it to a version I've had at another boba shop that I personally enjoyed more. Overall, Mai Coffee is a great local hangout with plenty of space, reliable internet, friendly service, and strong Vietnamese coffee. I'd definitely come back for the coffee and to spend some time working or relaxing.

I'll definitely be back to play chess and chat, read a book, or get some work done. They are the perfect location. Edward Vincent Park is also ~10 minute walk away. Super excited to have a locally owned coffee shop in the area. Just wish they were open later than 3pm!

The toast is apparently so good that they ran out when we got there! I'll have to come and update this review when I get a chance to try it. I got a cold brew and a coffee cake muffin, my bf got a matcha. I have to say I've never had cold brew this good, and that's without sweetener! They use Groundwork beans but didn't confirm if that's what the cold brew was made from. The muffin was also delicious, very soft and moist, tastes homemade. My boyfriend, who doesn't like muffins, loved it! And after his 1st sip of matcha he said it's 'the truth'. The women's working at the counter were very nice and personable. The service was pretty quick too. I love the warm, plant aesthetic the shop has too. 10/10 recommend, I look forward to coming back for to try the avocado toast

That's what made me like them. It really makes them unique. One time an elder came in who was a bit confused about the menu and they were so sweet to him, they even covered his drink.
