This is a really funky cafe cluttered with art and rococo inspired furniture and knickknacks. The person who helped me seemed like the owner and he was super nice. I was planning to sit and have a slice of cake and tea but decided to take a slice of cake to go because of how tacky the setting felt. I was disappointed after taking a bite into a $9 slice and realizing they use a dairy-free (oil based) whipped cream in the cake which I loathe and the berries were soggy so I think it was a few days old. The only thing I liked was the level of sweetness which is very light, typical of Asian cakes. $9 for a slice of cake that tastes like this is highway robbery. At the very least, it should be made of real whipped cream, but I understand the dairy free whipped cream offers longevity. Unfortunately I won't be back. read more

Really great cake and service overall! I ordered the entire strawberry shortcake for a special occasion and I was not disappointed. The cake was absolutely delicious and everyone loved it. I'll definitely return to try their other pastries and desserts. read more

I only got to-go, but caught a glimpse of the ambiance. They were playing classical relaxing music, have a bunch of antiques on display, and the building is literally a house. Seems like a decent place to study/work out of The levain bread was amazing. I've been toasting/eating it everyday. The man who helped me was very passionate in explaining how the bread was made. Really cool person! read more

Cafe Giverny is cute. The place is an actual house somewhere in Koreatown. The have hot brewed tea by the pot, coffee drinks, smoothies and some desserts. However, the drinks are expensive for something really simple. I mean they do have a mortgage to pay. The service is okay. We don't see the workers often in the room we were in but they were friendly. read more

Cafe Giverny - Charged us $2 for small jam and $1.50 for butter. What a joke - Desserts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

A nice quiet place to do work and relax. The food here is on the more expensive side for what it is (breads, cake, tea) but in a way I think it's worth it for a nice, peaceful place to chill. There is a small lot behind the building and the interior has a fancy yet homey feel with mismatched chairs and fancy china. The people working here are cheerful and don't bother you if you look like you're doing work. The only thing is that there are signs posted telling you not to use their outlets, so bring a well charged laptop if you're using one! read more

From the start, I could tell this cafe has a lot of regulars. The place was packed with large parties and families with kids; it's definitely a comfortable cafe for hanging out. Not the ideal place to study. The ambiance is lovely and the china teapots/teacups are adorable - my friend ordered tea just for the teapot! But many of the menu items are overpriced. I got Hot tea with an extra teacup and a side of honey and that was over $15. I can't believe a small cup of Honey is $1.00 (in the photo). The customer service here is great and is probably why there are regulars. The owner greeted us so kindly when he saw our car pull up in the compact parking lot and he guided us to our seats. read more

Cafe Giverny has transformed an old Ktown house into a warm and cozy cafe serving organic breads, pastries, coffees, teas, and a very original dessert that I have only found at Cafe Giverny. I really loved this family run business that shares some of their travels and love for the arts through the decor. I feel like I am blowing out the spot for their current older Ktown clientele but this spot rocks for chatting with friends over tea and coffee. read more

Imagine a house full of porcelain cups and mugs I'm them old school cabinets w. classical music and jazz in the background. That's what it is. Service is always friendly and pleasant. They have great cakes and shaved ice. Straightforward and very tasty. read more

About the café: Each time I come back I fall in love with this café even more. The furniture and ambiance in particular have a french bakery vibe to them with a touch of a few other cultures displayed on the walls in forms of paintings hung in perfect view of the customer, or in the tea cup collections stowed in cabinets that stand against empty corners of the back walls giving this café its homely and private appeal. About the menu: Ok. The strawberry short cake lives up to its hype. The first thing I noticed when my fork snuck into its soft behind was how airy and moist the cake sponge was. The cream was not over bearing (meaning ~ too sweet or heavy), the fresh, candied strawberries in the cream was the highlight of my whole experience. The slice was perfect to share however I don't see why it cannot be enjoyed solo ;) The tea was lovely and just what you would expect it to taste like. I appreciated the cup set it was served in as well. read more

I usually don't frequent Korean cafes as many of them don't have decent coffee and they totally overcharge. Cafe Giverny was a surprisingly good place. The place is very quaint and homey, inviting, and simply a good place to unwind and enjoy some good hot drinks or enjoy some sweets. My husband and I shared some macaron, ice cream with chocolate drizzle and misugaru, jujube tea, and a latte. Everything was delish. They do have some parking spots in the back, but it's a bit tight. If you don't feel comfortable maneuvering your car in a small space, I'd suggest just finding a street parking. read more

A very lovely family own coffee place. It's a house with slot of French European ceramic on displace. I love the classical music play in the background. Very good drinks, pastries and home made bread. read more

Found this cafe right after a Korean BBQ dinner. Wanted a warm and quiet place to have desert. Yelp review was positive, and it was in walking distance. What a pleasant surprise! A very quaint old English tea shop with antique furniture. But the coffee and deserts are modern first class! Try the Misugaru shaved ice with red beans. The Afogatto was also delicious since the espresso is so tasty! Don't miss the sweet chocolate and cherry Bomba, while the organic breads are yummy soft! It was so good, we went back the next morning! Worth it! read more

Cafe Giverny - Chocolate and Cherry Bomba with Cappuccino! - Desserts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Oooooooohh I'm a fan. A friend and I decided to grab some tea and dessert after dinner in K-town. I searched in Yelp for "tea" in the area, and this place is on the top 5. The cafe looks like a converted home decorated with paintings and abundant display of tea cups and tea pots (having tea with Mr. Darcy comes to mind). Very homely with several tables all throughout the "house". We ordered mint tea, cappuccino, strawberry shortcake, pistachio and chocolate macaron. Tea served in an oldschool tea cup and pot, very French, strawberry shortcake was homemade and the best I've ever had. Very light buttercream frosting, fresh strawberries and the cake was light and airy. The macarons were delicious as well. I'm a fan, my friend's a fan, you'll be a fan. Very nice concept! read more

Wanna go back to your youth when you read stories of Alice in Wonderland? Ever feel like you wanted to be transported to a different world in a small European cottage to have your afternoon tea? Welcome to Cafe Giverny! This homey cafe feels like your aunty's home filled with antique pianos, tea sets, and display cases. Not the trendiest, most exciting place in Ktown but a place for a calm deliberate conversations with your girlfriend(s). For you guys the rule still applies...not sure you'll have much fun with a group of dudes. For a guys jam session go to a soju house. Guys should be bringing their dates, significant others...or mom. The menu is filled with unique tea choices that you may find commonly at Stabucks or chain places. The coffee is brewed individually by the cup so that's refreshing. It was very nice that the owners(?) refilled my 2nd cup for free! The dessert accompaniments aren't inspiring but do perfectly match the beverage options to make for a pleasant experience overall. So drop by if you need a quiet place to hideaway from the Ktown bustle. read more

Really cute coffee/tea house with quality tea and sweet sides. Has European cozy tea house vibe. Amazing butter

Cafe Giverny has made its way up to the top of my list. The bingsoo alone gives me a reason to come back. Everything is organic and the crunchy bits gives it a unique twist which makes its consumption all the more enticing. The presentation of the bingsoo is simple and elegant and it matches the ambiance of their quant cafe. Their playlist, classical instrumentals, only serve to enhance the elegance of their shop and food. Their strawberry cake is like the clouds in the sky. The sweetness is mild and subdued. Truly a cake designed for royalty purposed to allow the taste to develop on your palate. We also tried their sourdough bread and it was absolutely excellent. Fresh, warm, not too sour, and with mild sweetness. It's fluffy and chewy. If there was anything sour in my heart, their bread has purified me of any of that. Come treat yo self! read more

I'll start out by saying I'm unclear on the root of my interaction and will let the reader make their own determination based on my recount. I went to Cafe Giverny a couple of weeks back because it was one of the only cafes open after dinner and a friend and I wanted to grab some tea and continue to catch up. It was like 9:30-9:45pm on a Friday (at least an hour before it closed). We walked in, there were a a lot of guests and it was pretty packed. I assume the owner and owners wife came to my friend and I (my friend is Japanese and I'm black) and told us they were closing. They CLEARLY were not closed, nor closing. It was weird because I looked at their hours and made sure they were open before we went as well. Ended up going to The Yellow House next door. We walked by Cafe Giverny on our way back to our car, maybe a half hour to an hour later, and they had even more people at their outside table, a big group of whyte people. That said, I'll never go there again. read more

I found a great place to either sit and read quietly or have tea/coffee and amazing pastries/breads. I tried the fig and nuts sourdough, misugaru frape, and pistachio macaroons. The bread was done to perfection, soft texture with the right mix of fruit and nuts. The frape was delicious, tasted a lot like sesame (which is a flavor I love). Not overly sweet, but just the right balance of flavor and sweetness. The macaroon was delicious once at room temperature. Ambiance was great, quiet with classical music in the background. I loved the art displayed all over the walls, it was very soothing. Service was nice and quick. I would definitely come back! read more

Cute little spot. Came here on a brunch date with he boyfriend before we moved out of state. Wished I knew about this place beforehand because I would of came in a few times a week. When ordering tea, it's brought out in individual pots and cups. The sammiches are simple and very delicious on made from scratch sourdough. The sourdough bread is to die for!!!! The owners are very nice! Aesthetic of the cafe is quaint and welcoming. read more

Hidden gem!!! Super cute cafe with a very cozy home/team room vibe. I highly recommend getting the organic roasted grain powder (misugaru) shaved ice. It was possibly one of the best Korean shaved ice I had in a while!! Super nutty flavor with crunchy quinoa puffs on top. Very refreshing and not too sweet - perfect for hot summer days. We also tried a slice of the triple berry piece cake which was also pretty good and not too sweet. The only downside of this cafe is that you have to order one item per person. There's a small parking lot in the back for free parking. read more

If you're looking for a cozy & cute place to Enjoy afternoon tea or just some bomb shaved iced. This is the place you would like to be. This cafe is not the hip young spot. You'll see older crowds maybe bump into your friends parents but their coffee, teas sandwiches, and shaved ice is to die for. This cafe is basically set up inside someone's house that's where the cozy comes in and all their cups, plates are old homey feel China. Super cute!! read more

It's a house that has been converted into a cafe. Street parking in the nearby residentials. The interior is extremely cozy, like a grandma's house with Victorian-esque decorations. This intimate and relaxed setting includes 3 or 4 mismatched tables in the front with a larger area to the left reserved for tea parties. All the furniture is actually kind of dilapidated upon closer inspection, so don't take a closer look... The strawberry shortcake ($6-7 per slice) was exactly what I wanted it to be: A moist, eggy, and light sponge layered with strawberry slices and airy whipped. The sweetness level was of Asian or European style. In fact, my friend and I ordered a second slice LOL. We should have just been real with ourselves and ordered one each. They are huge, but we love sweets. For the tea, we ordered a white pear tea ($5-6 per person) shared in a large tea pot. It was just ok; the flavor was so subtle that I barely tasted it. I'm quite certain that this is supposed to be like Asian pear steeped in hot water until boiling. My parents used to force me to drink that, which is probably why I wasn't too fond of this. Presentation was sooo cute plated on china with floral designs. read more

ZERO. I went in wanting some English tea and a place work because I had a few hours to kill. Sunday. There were only 2-3 others in the entire place. I was told the electrical outlets were not for customers, even though I clearly saw one of the customers plugged in using one. Took my money and my business next door to The Yellow House Cafe. They gladly gave me an outlet, 5G wifi and a large table. FU Giverny. read more
