What do you get when in a rush & haven't eaten all day & you wait outside for a LONG TIME as they ask you to wait until called in, so you decide to go in & inquire about your sandwich that was actually sitting on the counter the whole time? "My bad " is what you get : I What do you get when you finally sit down to eat the sandwich where you asked for them not to include a few ingredients due to food allergies? You get gypped on key sandwich ingredients that you actually wanted- that's what you get at this spot read more

Good: blueberry matcha, portobello mushroom sandwich. Bad : I personally did not enjoy my bacon donut hole had chewy bacon on top rather than crispy bacon which was a bummer. I will have to try more of the menu but for now the main thing that would only make me make a trip back would be the blueberry match. read more

Sandwiches and salads are all good. I ordered the breakfast burrito there, and it was too salty. Overly loaded with cheese. Had a hard time finishing the other half. Tell them to go easy on the cheese if you order this. Apple Tuna sandwich is my new favorite. Yum yum read more

A clean cafe with friendly and quick stuff and a Vietnamese iced coffee that's addictively delicious!

Their breakfast burritos are so yummy! I like calling in and having my order ready to go. They have a really cute outdoor space as well. Great coffee and pastries too! read more

They have the best matcha latte with oats i'll, unfortunately not open on weekends. Nice ambiance.

Tried the iced blueberry matcha latte per other reviewers recommendations and loved it! I also had the chocolate creamy donut and applie pie donut-- both light and delicious. I came through on a Friday morning and service was super quick. There's a parking lot and plenty of seating inside and on the patio. I'll definitely be returning to try more treats and drinks. read more

Great food and service will definitely be returning to try other things, I wanted the spicy Korean cheesesteak but unfortunately they were sold out maybe they'll have it next time! read more

I was with someone else so I didn't want to be confrontational. The lady that was helping us put her hand inside the paper donut holder in order to open it up before putting the donut in. Eeeewww , not Food Safety approved read more

Note to self: Always get the mango jicama salad because you know you like the simplicity of the salad dressing and the crunchiness of the jicama on top of the short burst of sweetness from the mango. Sometimes chicken is good and sometimes you just don't want the chicken but extra those yummy pasta. Ok. Enough rave for the mango jicama salad... cause it's a salad filled with mixed veggies like kale cabbage etc. Oh so yum. read more

Recommend their iced matcha latte! They don't have a vanilla latte but they have a latte sweetened with condensed milk that was delicious! read more

Cafe Dulce - Iced matcha latte - Cafes Near Me - Vernon, California

Did you watch the movie Ratatouille? Ok, the bread makes that sound, and yet it's so flaky and soft at the same time. How do they do it? I wasn't even that hungry but my friend took me there to talk. After one bite of the sandwich, I knew I found my new favorite lunch place. And the salad was amazing too. I ate it all without one green leaf left. WOW! And the outdoor seating feels like I just went to a posh restaurant on Abbott Kinney in Venice. Cafe Dulce, I'll see you tomorrow. I just have to put blinders on as I pass by all those delicious sweets. My doctor says I'm too sweet and too creamy already so I need to refrain. Keep that salad healthy and tasty. I'll pretend its a donut. Gosh, I still can't stop thinking about that french baguette. Dayam you Cafe Dulce. I'm gonna get fat now. Forget Keto. bring on the bread. read more

This may be the lunch spot in Vernon if you are looking for decent food and coffee. Choosing between this place and Jersey Mike's? This place! Sandwiches are really good. I tried the Pastrami Burger, Korean Cheese steak, and Breakfast Burrito. Pastrami Burger with melted cheese. Cheesesteak with kimchi aioli. My favorite is still the Breakfast Burrito. It's just simple and not too heavy for lunch. Coffee is a little pricey but certainly better than Starbucks. Many drink options such as matcha and milk tea for non-coffee drinkers. According to my coworker, the latte here is silky and amazing! Staffs here are helpful and friendly. Limited sitting so try to get before 12pm rush! read more

Love the salads the brick bread and donuts are really good. Matcha is always my go to. Quick and friendly service

This is a such a cute cafe! I really dig the simple decor and their matcha drinks. You need to try their matcha latte with oat milk, it's so delicious! Also their pastrami sandwich is really yummy. I got it without the bread and they spread it over arugula, with cucumber, tomato, mango, jicama, etc and were super generous with the pastrami! The only downside is that they don't have unsweetened almond milk, but maybe that's a good thing, cause if they did, I'd be there all the time. read more

Yum yum yum. I was in the area and only had a minute, so I dropped in and grabbed a large cold brew with oat milk and sweetner. Deeeeeeelicious! Then I tried their fruity pebbles donut hole and bacon donut hole and my morning was heavenly. The lady working there was really sweet too. Wish I could give more stars. read more

*Update to my review: the business happily replied to my concern and explained that the instant coffee is only a part of making a mocha topping for a pastry, and it is not what is served to drink! Happy and relieved to hear and will come back to try the different drinks here* Happy this location exists... But conflicted by one thing. Why do i see loads and loads of Folgers instant coffee in the back area of what should be a stylish, quality cafe? Please dont tell me its true that its what we're served, i'll be sad. Otherwise, i really enjoyed coming here in between work. Im glad theres a quality cafe in the middle of this industrial area. Got an iced mocha and it didnt disappoint. The ice cubes were large, the cups have a nice design, whats not to like? I hope someone can address the folgers and ease my mind! read more

I seriously love this place and it was a much needed addition to this city! Thank God y'all came to save my lack of lunch and coffee options!!! Coffee- 10/10 gaddang das good Food- 10/10 dat pastrami and Asian chicken salad doe Pastries- 10/10 I work out to eat these... jk I don't work out. Highly recommend anyone in the area to come and eat and get their specialty coffee fix here. Can't go wrong. read more

Excited to have this establishment as a new option for lunch. FOOD: I had the Spicy Korean Cheesesteak and the Hong Kong milk tea. The tea flavor in the Hong Kong MT was strong and tasty. It was creamy and sweetness was perfectly balanced. As for the sandwich, I will be definitely be coming back and ordering it again. The meat was tasty, the bread wasn't hard nor soggy, it was perfect, and definitely enjoyed the kimchi. I will have to come back and try everything on their menu. There were some tasty looking doughnuts, but I did not try any. Perhaps on my next run here. Venue: It is a lovely venue with inside and outside seating. Their outside seating is shaded which is great for Sunny Socal. They also had a fountain which gave a relaxing atmosphere. I'm definitely a fan of this place! read more

Really nice place! Plenty of parking in the lot, non-dairy milk options (oat, almond and soy), delicious coffee and matcha, and vegan donuts. Helpful staff who mentioned that their flavored matcha had dairy. Plentiful seating inside and out. Only note - they don't stevia packets so bring your own if you like it like me! read more

Love this place. Just went in for first time and had a very delicious breakfast sandwich on a baguette and an amazing dulce latte. Cool music. Welcoming and friendly service. Great architecture. Clean. My new favorite cafe in Los Angeles. Great job owners and team who are behind this business! read more

The coffee is good but the cashier girl is incredibly rude. I went to pick up the drinks a few times but never felt welcome when I walked in. The girl snaps at customers over the phone when ordering pick up orders and snaps as well when people ask simple questions I tried the pastry a few times too and overall it is good quality If the service from the cashier was better I would definitely make this place my go to morning coffee but no thanks read more

He handles your food, would you eat it? Just fwi there's big mask and shot sign by the door for consumers and made a complete mockery out of us. Furthermore the menu outside doesn't have price, you would have to borrow a laminated one front the counter. The drinks in the refrigerator are not priced either. read more

Cafe Dulce - Server massless the whole time - Cafes Near Me - Vernon, California

I LOVE their salads! They give a plentiful amount and the ingredients are fresher than I expected. The drinks, of course, are splendid and I have tried several of their coffee drinks. If you like it strong, they have the donut joe for you and if you like lighter coffee, they have a lot of milky latte choices. read more

First timer! Pretty good stuff. A little hidden but worth the find. Ordered a hot vanilla latte. read more

Cafe Dulce - Vanilla latte - Cafes Near Me - Vernon, California

worst matcha in all of los angeles. they have it premade in a gallon of milk-- disgusting. it was unbelievably sweet, I couldn't get passed one sip & ended up tossing the entire drink in the garbage. Coffee was ok but leaves a bad after taste, also couldn't finish it. read more

Best coffee in LA. I'd drive 5 miles just to go here.

The food is great, the donuts are beautiful and delicious. The service is also great! read more

I love cafe dulce and always get a drink when I get the chance . However it's a hit and miss when it comes down to the staff here. My latte cups are smudged and today I was told to wait outside for my drink. I was was waiting for awhile and they did not call my name or anything. My cup was standing there and was a bit cold. I hope this location improves in terms of professionalism. read more

This is a pleasant surprise for the area! I work nearby and although I typically bring my lunch to work with me, I always try to come here once a month or so cause its that good. The atmosphere is great, they play all the jams and the decor is on point. Their service is fast which, which coming on my lunch break I appreciate! You can also call ahead to place your order if your short on time. I have to get the blueberry matcha every time. So yummy! read more

Work in the area and this is my go to spot for breakfast/lunch. Everything on the menu is terrific but my favorites combo is the Korean BBQ and bacon donut holes! read more

Awesome gem in the desert. Good seating, really good coffee, and the baristas were pleasant.

Ordered the caprese salad. Overall was ok. Was served a small bowl with lots of spring mix and very little tomato. Very bland dressing. Ordered green iced tea and when I was done I asked for a refill. Rude guy behind the counter told me no refills. But he would make an exception this time and refilled my glass halfway. Paid over 13.00 and left hungry and disappointed. read more

All the latte's are delicious not to mention the blueberry matcha. Variety of cute doughnuts . I recommend trying out the sandwiches and salads too read more

Super good!! Love their breakfast sandwich, it's totally worth the price. They use fresh ingredients and the customer service is great. The coffee shop itself is cool and chill. read more

Sandwiches are delicious!! Ordered the apple tuna and it was great! Plenty of parking and very clean.

Great little independent coffee shop with good coffee. I really enjoyed my cold brew (very strong FYI) and friend had a good latte. Owner is very friendly and service was great. Would love to see some gluten-free pastry options but the coffee is good enough on its own. read more

Food is great, customer service not so much. Tried to call in a to-go order but was calling the wrong number because this location isn't listed on their site. When I explained to the cashier, she didn't really care or apologize. Just wanted to continue reading her book. As much as I like the food, I don't spend my money at places that don't treat their customers right. read more

The salads and sandwiches are delicious but $6.00 for a bottle of Coconut water! That's ridiculous!
