This place is such a gem! The coffee is always great, but what really stands out is the staff. Everyone here is genuinely kind, welcoming, and super professional. I've seen how gracefully they handle even tough customer situations, and they always stay calm, respectful, and positive. It's honestly impressive. You can tell they really care about creating a good experience for everyone who walks in. The service goes above and beyond, and it makes you want to keep coming back. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Huge shoutout to the amazing staff--they deserve all the credit for the great vibe here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Definitely recommend stopping by! read more

Bacon breakfast sandwich and honey latte were alright. There were 3 workers and none of them seem to like their job much, shows in their attitude. Made faces laughed/ commented about certain customers under their breath but it's an open bar so not many places to hide that read more

I usually love the Pasadena location, but the matcha I ordered here was not the best. I'll def give their other lattes a try in the future, as well as some of their food items. Aside from that, staff is friendly and quick. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They also have lots of seating and parking available as it is located on the first floor of a corporate building.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The parking structure in front is free too. read more

Copa Vida - Matcha latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Torrance, California

This place is a hidden gem. You can park at the parking structure. The shop is located next to the court yard of the main building and parking structure. The service was good. They greeted me as soon as I entered. Very friendly, which made it much more pleasant knowing that you are welcomed in a cozy and beautiful cafe. The latte I ordered was tasteful. I have seen reviews saying it was ok. I try basic hot latte at every cafe I go to, and I can confidently say that the latte was good. Yes. The latte is small but it supposed to be a a shot or two with framed milk. If you are expecting to have a large drink, order something else. I enjoyed every sip of it. The paper cup may not be eye pleasing but it held up ok, and thats all it mattered. Especially, if you are driving and sipping at the same time. Overall, it was great. This place gets a 4.7 out of 5. read more

Very rude service and very bad food; the breakfast burrito was tasteless and we asked for salt, but they didn't have any; very hard to believe; you can go back to a place where the food was ok but the service's attention was excellent, but in this case, they were both very very very bad. read more

Inconsistent. The coffee tastes different and sour every time. The staff are too busy talking to work. I wish it was better as it's really conveniently located for me. EDIT I don't know what is going on at this place but the drama is off the charts. Getting messages from one of them accusing me of some weird shit on behalf of Maddie. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice coffee shop with beautiful outdoor seating , and nice couches inside as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The ambiance was nice , the pastries were good , we tried the caramelized croissant and chocolate croissant, the chocolate croissant did not taste very fresh but the caramelized croissant tasted great. We also ordered a bunch of lattes , the Dulce latte was too sweet and we also tried the matcha latte with pistachio milk, which was nice. The cups were so tiny for $6 which is a bit ridiculous, I need something bigger than this kids size. Service was good and somewhat quick. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I would come back for the ambiance but nothing else.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

The coffees pretty bad. I don't think they've calibrated their espresso machines since they opened.

This cafe is located in the lobby of a big office building. I've been here a few times now since it's right next to the hair salon I go to. Each time, I'm hoping it will be better but every time I go, the service is not friendly. I've tried their honey latte, iced vanilla latte, and iced matcha latte. It's pretty pricey for what you get. The drinks are okay... not bad but not great either. I also got their bacon breakfast sandwich once and the worker didn't cut it in half even though I asked him to. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The cafe is clean and there is plenty of seating if you need to do some studying or get work done.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Parking: free in adjacent parking garage/structure. read more

A hidden gem right near Del Amo mall. I ordered a café mocha, it was perfectly made and delicious. For food I had the avocado toast, and it was so fresh with a generous portion. Has a lemony kick (the use chili oil), a perfect touch. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is very clean, warm, and inviting[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]], and the staff is incredibly kind. Can't wait to come back! read more

Copa Vida is located inside of an office building. There is free parking in the structure outside. As soon as you walk into the building, Copa Vida is on the left hand side! The interior of Copa Vida is really cute, & it looks like a great place to study or read. However, I just wasn't impressed with their drinks at all. I ordered an iced honey latte with oat milk & almost couldn't even drink it. I usually get oat milk at other coffee shops, but they must use a different brand here because it was very grainy & almost tasted like rice. The coffee was smooth, but the oat milk flavor was just very off putting. It also isn't a sweet drink, so keep that in mind if that's what you're looking for. My sister ordered the peppermint mocha, a seasonal drink. I thought the portion was very small for the price. It looks even smaller than a tall at starbucks. The peppermint was better than my drink, but it was bitter. If I were to come back, I'd stick to regular milk & avoid oat milk. read more

This is a really low-key cafe located in a large commercial office building so it's tucked away and not easy to find from the main streets. It's adjacent to a large parking structure. Their menu hosts some typical breakfast sandwiches, burritos and avocado toast. They serve a good assortment of coffees and teas. Overall, decent food and drinks. There was only one barista working while I was here, but she was friendly and fast. The inside is simple and clean with lots of seating. They have good chill music. It's a perfect place to get some work done or a good site for an out-of-office meeting. There's also a nice little courtyard right outside with patio tables/chairs, umbrellas, and some lounge chairs. read more

Love the staff! Very friendly and welcoming, will be coming back soon! Best latte ive had in a while

Very excited to see Copa Vida in Torrance! No more driving to Pasadena. :-) Coffee drinks are very solid and strong. My go-to are simple.. expresso with oatmilk, or cappuccino. Located inside of the Torrance business building next to Denny's/ across from Norsstroms. There is plenty of garage parking. read more

The good: There's plenty of parking and plen-tea of tea options! I liked the seasonal options like the yuzu matcha. They had plenty of tea options and tea latte options. I tried the brûlée mint tea and liked the frothy foam. I like the modern interior and trendy outdoor communal space. There are tables and umbrellas. The outside has a mural, bamboo plants, lounge chairs and flowers. I came here to treat myself to a peaceful morning on this rainy June day. They sell cute merchandise that includes travel mugs, ceramic cups, and kettles. The service was great. The worker brought my almond croissant and tea to my table. The bad: The brûlée mint tea latte tasted good but tasted like a London fog with black tea and didn't have mint flavor. The almond croissant was good but the almond paste inside was lacking. Instead, it was oozing with lots of butter (not a bad thing- but was definitely looking for that almond paste!). The interesting: They're located on the first floor of a business building. read more

Lovely place and ambiance! The outdoor area was very pleasant to work in. I just wish they would extend the wifi somehow because I kept getting disconnected outside. Service was nice and friendly. I got the iced vanilla latte which was good and not bad for the price. Overall, a great low-key place that's not too loud and crowded, great to get work done! read more

Copa Vida - my finished iced vanilla latte lol - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Torrance, California

I'm really happy the shop opened back up after the pandemic. Great selection of single origin pour overs and espresso drinks as well as milk alternatives. I also picked up a bag of espresso beans to give a try. They have a large selection of breakfast items, however, today they had limited ingredients. That was knowledgeable about their beans. Parking structure is always full, just park in the adjacent lot and walk over. Bottom Line: I'll be sure to come back more often on my days off! read more

I really wanted to love this place but sadly, I didn't like it as much as I thought I would. I am a shopaholic and it seems like I'm always at Del Amo, so this would have been a great place to take a break and enjoy an iced latte and/ or a snack. It also seems like a fabulous place to study or get some work done. The indoor and outdoor space are both great. I especially think the outdoor space is wonderful, especially when you want to have a nice conversation and enjoy the beautiful weather. I got an iced vanilla latte with oat milk and it was just eh; very oat milk forward. I also got a vegan chocolate chip cookie because I didn't eat anything this morning and it looked ef-ing amazing. I thought it was going to taste like Tate's cookies (one of my favs)... the cookie was again, just eh. It was my first time here and this is based on first impressions on what I ordered. read more

Situated just off the main part of Del Amo Mall, Copa Vida is a recent addition to the shopping center of Torrance. It's an open-space coffee shop that's inside a corporate building, right across from security. You could say that you can enjoy some coffee and do work while feeling safe! XD I ordered the honey latte. Drink is a bit steep at over $6 for a small cup, but that was a wonderfully-made latte: I could taste the mellow sweetness from the honey, and the latte itself was creamy and comforting. And to enjoy it at the booth overlooking a green space outside is very peaceful. I would return to Copa Vida just for that honey latte! Only wish is that Copa Vida was open on weekends, but otherwise, I'll have to take another day off to make the trek back for another coffee! read more

Copa Vida - Honey latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Torrance, California

I visit Copa Vida pretty frequently since it is convenient to me and I like the coffee! The coffee shop is located in an office building near Del Amo mall! There is a large parking lot and also a big parking structure, there are a few signs so make sure you check those before parking. I have tried a couple of their drinks like the vanilla latte, honey latte, and matcha latte. My favorite is the vanilla latte with whole milk, it is the perfect amount of sweetness for my liking! I have also tried the Everything croissant that is filled with cream cheese and I absolutely love it! The seasoning and filling complement each other so well. I would recommend the coffee over the matcha though, I was not the biggest fan. It can get busy though if there are a lot of people waiting for drinks,, other than that they are very fast with making drinks! read more

Met a long time client for coffee. They had a small but good looking menu but I did not eat on this visit. Great spot in a great building. Lots of young professionals coming and going. Outdoor and indoor seating. Free parking in the structure. read more

I really really wanted to like this place because it's so aesthetic. Their honey latte is AMAZING! The first taste had me hooked! Unfortunately, just as good as the coffee was, the burrito was the exact opposite. It tasted absolutely inedible. It's a microwave burrito that tastes comparable to a flight meal. The fact that this microwave burrito was $12 dollars was enraging. They REALLY should stop selling the burritos. Cute place to come and work while having a cup of coffee, but DON'T order the burrito. read more

Copa Vida - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Torrance, California

Still makes a really good latte even though it's not their original location. I'm used to having Copa vida espresso being very earthy, but the latte here was less on the earthy side and was quite balanced with the sweetness of the milk that blended well with the more molasses, chocolate notes that I got from my cup. In terms of earthiness, this one was even lighter than Intelligentsia's black cat espresso so that was a bit of surprise too. Staff here is also really nice; there was a lady who complained that her hot latte was cold even though she was on the phone for half an hour before she started drinking it. ... staff made her a new one and even apologized to her for her 'cold' latte. Aside from that, this Copa vida resides in a business building so their space is more like .. a side bar cafe with super limited seating. There's a couple of outlets (two) if you want to go there to study, and there's a few handful of seats if you want to sit and chat. But overall, still a good cup of coffee. read more

I really like my oat milk honey latte here! The aesthetic of Copa Vida is open, bright and spacious which gives off clean, minimal vibes. It's a little odd because it is connected to the lobby of a business building, but either way, really cute coffee shop. I met a friend here and we spent an hour just catching up. After she left, I stayed for another hour doing work. I will def come back to use the space and to grab a coffee! read more

A bit tricky to find the entrance because of how maps navigate you to the parking lot but the coffee was good. Would come back again.

so happy that copa vida is in the South Bay! I love their Pasadena location but don't get to go often since it's far. Parking- there is a free parking garage right in front of the building but may be full from the corp offices in the same building as copa vida. I parked in front of buy buy baby but park at your own risk. There's a few tables inside and right in the main entrance. There's 3 outlets if you sit inside, not sure if there's any outlets where the high table is. But lots of outside seating available if you're grabbing coffee with a friend. Service was amazing per usual and so was my iced matcha. Can't wait to come back to try the strawberry yuzu matcha latte!! read more
