The coffee is uniquely creative, with custom prints and designs that add a fun touch. The location is another highlight right in the heart of Melrose. The service is consistently fast so you can grab your drink and enjoy the atmosphere without a long wait. read more

We frequent Carrera's in Moorpark. We enjoy the dinner and the dessert. The service is good and the live music is nice. Generally the volume is good. A new look and feel was put in. The interior furniture was updated. The new look and feel is interesting and warm. Other than that, Carrera's is always good and filling. read more

First timer here! We came just for the famous Latte Art. ! It's a very cute and trendy cafe. Looked presentable and clean. We came on a Friday afternoon and it was pretty busy, a lot of foot traffic from the younger crowd. Very loud club reaggaton music playing in the cafe. **Coffee art isn't free. About a $5 charge. You can get coffee art for any hot or cold coffee drinks. Except Matcha! And they can only use Non-fat, whole, and soy for the coffee art. 1. Download the "Ripples App" or scan their QR Code with the cashier, 2. choose your design, 3. show your designated number to the cashier.** Orders: -Iced Chai "Stay Beautiful" (small size)= $9.50 -Iced Americano "Custom" (large size)= $10~12, can't remember the exact price. The Chai was really good. It has a refreshing, potent Chai/ Horchata-Cinamonny flavoring. Americano is pretty strong black coffee and what we needed. The downside is that the coffee art, within 3-5 minutes, can start to blur but understandable, it's foam. The additional price for the coffee art makes it hard to justify coming back again unfortunately. If it was a $1-2 extra charge for the art, we can deal because the art is so cute and I think most people come for that. We plan on coming back when we are feeling something special for the coffee art, but my friend thinks she will stick to her Nepresso machine. read more

This place was so cute! They had a ton of space inside and a really nice outdoor area situated right across the street from Paul Smith's pink wall. I came here for their printed foam coffee and got the cutest Kirby! You have to download the Ripple app and then can choose from a selection they have or upload your own photograph. I got a dirty chai which ended up being around 7 bucks? Not bad for a cute customizable design on top! I also got the Il Vegetariano Sub. It had feta, cucumbers, walnuts, and tomatoes. Super light and yummy! Love the bread they used! It was perfectly toasted giving a nice crunch. A cute place for some good coffee and good food! Will be coming back! read more

Carrera Cafe - Famous Egg Sandwich - Cafes Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Another trendy coffee shop on Melrose Ave. They have coffee, pastries, sandwiches so a cool casual spot. In all honesty though, I came here for their ripples (aka coffee art). They have a selection of images/phrases to choose from or you can upload your own as well. They have seasonal drinks, which I didn't get a chance to try out, but definitely will next time. I had a meatball sandwich which wasn't bad. I love that the bread was fresh. I had the iced latte and iced chai latte. Get the chai latte. The staff was very friendly and service was good. I will come back. There is metered parking available. read more

This cafe is definitely overhyped. I ordered an iced chai & it was not that good. It didn't really even taste like chai but more like heavy vanilla cream. Also, do be aware that while ordering you need to remember to ask for the design/foam if you want it because the cashier will NOT ask you if you want it so if you forget, you will get charged for & receive a regular drink. I'm kind of happy I forgot to ask because the chai was not good & I would have been much more disappointed if I had to pay extra for it read more

Carrera Cafe - 16 oz. Iced Chai Latte - Cafes Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Came here for a mid-day drink and it was pretty empty - the staff were pretty kind and friendly nonetheless though and it was pretty quick to get our drinks. I got a matcha latte and while it looked nice and had a good amount of liquid, it literally just only tasted like milk. It tasted specifically like whole milk and it was probably due to the lack of matcha - it was a light green, but the matcha taste was so subtle that it basically didn't exist. I enjoyed the aesthetic of the cafe and the overall ambiance, but the drink really wasn't all that great. I would be willing to try one of their pastries probably and another drink, but their matcha drink was really difficult to drink and was not worth the price. I'd suggest anything but that - their coffee seemed more than fine, honestly. read more

Carrera Cafe - Interior - Cafes Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Cute coffee shop just across the Pink Wall so that was visiting two spots in one go for this LA tourista back in July (haha i know, very late review). It was one hot day so most of the guests were indoors but luckily the outdoors seating wasnt really bad. Umbrellas were big enough that a group of 6 all had nice shade. We enjoyed our coffees and despite the hot weather, we ordered hot lattes haha saw they make cute latte arts and so we had to go for it. Was worth it! The wall art also caught my attention when this place made it to my "places-to-visit" list. I saw flower painting before but when we went it was a Chanel one so i guess it changes often. Either way, cute shop, good coffee, beautiful decor! read more

Casual, but fast, efficient, and friendly service. Good food, but maybe ask for them to go light on the salad dressing. It's good food but a little heavy on salt and condiments, unnecessarily read more

I won't call myself an egg sandwich connoisseur but perhaps an aficionado. And without a doubt, I had the best egg, cheese croissant breakfast sandwich of my life at Carrera Cafe. The croissant was buttery and flaky, perfectly toasted. The eggs perfectly cooked and folded omelet style, with cheddar cheese, pesto and avocado. It was simply sublime. My vanilla latte was hot and perfectly made, and I grabbed a fresh canelé pastry for the road, which tasted as if it was made in a French patisserie. I'll be visiting Carrera Cafe again soon. Hands down 5 Stars! read more

This is a great spot for an influencer or someone who loves taking pictures and cute aesthetics. They have some food and snack options lol as well, but mainly the concept rely on the coffee prints. So pretty much whatever you want you send them and they create your customized printed coffee for you. It's such a cute concept and so innovative! I definitely drink better coffees in terms of the taste, but this is for the look people! We love a cute looking customized iced or hot coffee, don't we :) read more

I live down the street and always happen upon this spot during my walks on Melrose. I haven't actually gone in but decided to order delivery since my roommate raved about it. I ordered an iced latte and turkey sandwich--both were extremely delicious! The sandwich was plentiful and the latte tasted yummy, no sour after taste. I'll go inside next time and will hopefully enjoy the vibe and customer service! read more

Beautiful cafe with a high airy ceiling with large window walls. I got their self-proclaimed Famous Egg Sandwich and it was awesome. The egg is fried, the bread is fresh and sturdy. The bread is covered with a good-amount of mayo which is gave this sandwich something extra. Avocado Toast is also very good. Chocolate Croissant is good. Iced Latte is good and strong. Indoor and outdoor seating are available. read more

A quiet and cute café right on Melrose. You should check out this place at least once on your visit to LA. I found this place coincidentally on Instagram as a popular spot to go to. They are mostly known for their foam printed design drinks. You can download the Ripple app, upload or pick a preset photo, and give your order to the barista. They have tons of preset images already in their system. You can order a city design, the face of a famous celebrity, your favorite baseball team, anything you want. You can also upload your own personal image as well. As you can see from my photo, I decided to upload an Instagram photo which came out nicely. On the other side they serve mostly sandwiches and salads. You can pick out a couple good selections and enjoy your meal inside or outside. I ordered a turkey sandwich and it was delicious. I know a lot of people enjoy the interior design of the café. The entire café is very bright and photogenic. Right across the street is the famous pink wall by Paul Smith. There was a long line of people waiting to take photos. I was shocked but who am I to say anything as I just ordered an iced latte with a picture of myself on it. read more

Drinks were below my expectations. When I order a cookie butter latte I'm expecting it to taste like so. I also got the banana latte and it was so far from what a banana latte typically is like. It was like a dirty milkshake with no flavor. Hated my drinks but the service is great! read more

Very disappointed. With the look of the place I had high expectations. SERVICE: atrocious. And I mean from the time we walked in- no one greeted us. When it was our turn to order the guy taking the order was snarky and extremely rude. I remember he asked if it was for here or to go and I looked over my partner and I whispered honestly I'm not sure if I even want to stay now. I knew she had been so excited to try this place and that we had a come on a Saturday recently, it was closed due to a private event and she had really been looking forward to it so I sucked it up and stayed. Esthetic: place was nice, lots of light. Minimalistic which was appealing. Food: food was good. One of my eggs was raw.. very raw.. I waited to say anything bc the cashier guy has been so rude.. when the new eggs were brought out a long time later, they were sitting on a bed of old lettuce and one of them had a piece of hair on it. Overall food was good, good coffee, but service overshadowed it for sure. We really wanted to make this our new Cafe, so I can enjoy my black coffee while I knit a bit.. and she watched the sports highlights. Food was light my partner loved her coffee, she really had been looking forward to the pictures on the coffee. read more

Very disappointing experience. My daughter is a huge Harry Styles fan, so we drove 3 hours in traffic from San Diego, stood in the boring line in the hot sun for two hours before being allowed to enter the store to get the coffee they advertised for the Harry Styles event. By the time we got up to entrance they had run out of the special sleeves for the cups but we could still get the picture stamped on the foam of the coffee. So we waited another 45 minutes in the line in the store. We paid the $20 for the two cups of the worst coffee ever that we ended up throwing away because it was awful. All of the above would have not mattered if we got what we came for. They told my daughter to choose two pictures. They said they would work well. After waiting yet another 45 minutes to get what we had paid for, we were presented with a pink blob on the one cup and a pink and white shadow of Harry on the other. Certainly not a nice picture of Harry that my daughter was hoping for. We asked if they could redo it. We were told we chose too dark of a picture and too bad for us. Nice of them to tell us when we placed the order and have us choose a different one. So thanks Carerra Cafe for the waste of time, the waste of money, the worst coffee ever and most of all for upsetting and disappointing my daughter. And a very special shout-out for winning the award for awful customer service! read more

Café with an impressive menu selection but tiny dining room. There is an outdoor patio which was not setup bc I went on a rainy day. Somehow lucked out getting a table next to the outlet (W) and worked comfortably for a few hours. The açaí bowl was a good portion and delicious. The matcha is unsweetened fyi. When you need a break from whatever you're doing, you can people watch all the ridiculous tourists across the street taking pictures literally with a plain pink wall? Apparently it's a thing. I didn't know until today. Street parking only, READ the street signs. The residential neighborhood is a minefield. read more

Cute cafe. White aesthetic with some seating on the inside and it has a few tables outside where you can look at the famous pink wall across the street. I came here for the custom latte where you can submit your picture and it becomes latte art. I did a picture of my daughter. The concept was very cute! My latte however wasn't the best tasting. The latte was only worth it for having that image of choice on it. This coffee place is definitely on the pricier side as well probably because of the customization. It is definitely worth it for the experience, not sure if I would come back again though. It was more just for an attraction to try out read more

Me & my husband loves to try different places to get our 'weekend' breakfast. We ordered thru Uber Eats and they have the B1G1 promotion. We tried the Tonno-Tuna which was delicious, so food is good! However, the Iced Latte taste like it was just espresso and too much water. Same as the Iced Matcha I got, taste like it was watered down as if there's no effort when it was made. I guess this place has good food just not the drinks. read more

We came strictly for the caffeine and the latte art...cuz I'm a dork. My cappuccino was good and the artwork was perfect. My hubby ordered a cold brew. He said it wasn't as good as Starbucks, but it was good. There was only one other person in the cafe, which was nice. We sat and enjoyed our coffee without all the chitter chatter of other patrons...which is exactly what you want when having your first cup of coffee, right? We marveled at all the tourists taking pics at Paul Smith. I mean, it's a pink wall...but, who am I to judge? I came here for the latte art! read more

Came here for the custom-designed drinks, of course. You can upload a pic and have it put on your beverage (I got a chai latte and my friend got a hot chocolate). Came before a Harry Styles show so we got a pic of him on one and the tour logo on the other. They both came out super cute! And my chai latte was so delicious! And cheaper than a certain name-brand chain. Plus way more fun with the ability to design. If you don't want to upload a pic there are also fun designs they have to choose from. Also ordered a Greek salad and it was just OK. Would try a different food next time. Ambiance in the cafe was cute. Plenty of tables, Instagrammable floor, table, and walls. Outside they have a mural that I understand gets swapped out. Street parking was easy in the evening when I went. If I didn't live an hour away I'd be here regularly! read more

I am a new customer, though I will never order from here again. I ordered breakfast from here through Uber Eats. They're having a Buy 1 Get 1 Free deal through the end of December. I ordered a 12 oz Turmeric Latte (sweetened with honey) and an egg sandwich with grilled salmon and avocado as add-ons. As you can see from the photos, the egg sandwich is B1G1. Upon placing the order, I realized they'd charge me for the add-ons for BOTH sandwiches, even though 1 is supposed to be free. So instead of paying an additional $9 for the salmon & avocado, they charge you $18 for both sandwiches. This isn't Buy 1 Get 1 Free, so instead of ordering 2 sandwiches I ordered 1 with a note saying I still wanted my free sandwich, but without the add-ons, just still in a lettuce wrap (which is not extra). Not only did they not honor the deal they're promoting, the gave me a half full latte! And it was not sweetened with honey. Clearly, these people are cheap and have questionable business practices. Honestly, the food is mid- absolutely NO seasoning. I paid nearly $40 for bland food and a half full drink. Spend your money elsewhere. You've been warned! Update: Apparently, the owner's reading comprehension isn't that great. If you look at the photos attached for reference, you'll see the Egg Sandwich is clearly listed as Buy 1 Get 1 Free. I'm not going back and forth with someone who'd rather gaslight their customers instead of taking accountability for the poor service provided by their establishment. What I've written is clear and honest. Though it's funny he didn't have any excuse to offer for the poor quality of the food. Have new year, guy! read more

I love lattes since forever! A latte with my face on it! Whaat! Yes please! Love the decor of this place. Everything is a photo opp here. Merch available too. Outside the walls are photo opps and believe me there were tons of Asian tourists doing crazy photo shoots all around. The latte was amazing as well as the secret egg sandwich and fruity pebbles donut. The waffle cup was also a sugar fest for my cousin that enjoyed it. Will always come back when were in the area. Great service and location when in Hollywood. Parking can be tricky sometimes. Good prices. Download the Ripples app if you want to do a custom picture on your coffee foam. read more

Cute café with delicious food and drinks. I ordered the Cinnamon Nutella Donut and I loved it! It was a cross between a croissant and donut with cinnamon and sugar coating the outside. Between the layers of the cronut and on top, was silky smooth Nutella. You got a blast of the hazelnut flavor with every bite, followed by the sweet crunch of the cinnamon sugar. It was light and fluffy, freshly made that morning. I think it would have been even better if I heated it up a little bit to make the inside warm and melted. They had a few other delicious sounding donut flavors and croissants too that I'd like to try, along with breakfast sandwiches and toast. Not too expensive either for the great quality. Check this place out if you're in the area! read more
