    I adoreeee Earth Bean! It's a nice, quiet, and quaint escape from the hustle and bustle of the fashion district. I've had a couple of their beverages such as the golden milk, activated chai and matcha drink - all killer however I do reco customizing your drink to your liking as well! Earth bean offers a variety of milk substitutes and syrups to truly make your drink your own. An iced lavender latte or peppermint mocha cappuccino are seasonal faves. The only downside is that parking can be difficult in the fashion district so if you're not lucky enough to find a meter, you're looking at $10-15 at a parking structure. if you're into buying local coffee, you can buy ground/whole bean coffee here as well.

    Ice Carmel latte

    I haven't been here in a while since I'm from San Diego and COVID hit. Came here today because I was running errands in LA. I got the iced Carmel latte. Omg it was soooo good! Most of their ingredients are house made and you can taste the quality. I swear I wish they opened one in SD in my hood so I can enjoy the goodness more often.

    Cute small unique coffee shop. Crème brûle latte was real tasty, matcha was ok. Love the outdoor seating and the service was super friendly!

    Superfood coffee

    Gotta love the Superfood Coffee! This one has cacao butter, gelatinized maca, & red reishi to relieve stress and boost immunity. The taste is amazing with so many different flavor profiles that balance each other out. If you're into the grass fed butter coffees then this is the coffee for you. I prefer this one to grass fed butter coffees at other places because it is not as heavy as others make it to be. They use less butter and more superfood ingredients to create this drink. It's amazing! Excited to try other things on the menu. The cafe is in the middle of fashion district. It's not too difficult looking for street parking on the weekends!

    Creme brûlée Latte

    One word: EXQUISITE. The creme brûlée latte is mouth watering. The barista's attention to detail is immaculate. Hipster cafe right in the heart of downtown LA. Perfect for this gloomy weather. A win for the books, for sure. highly recommend this place.

    I think their concept is amazing for the location to reduce carbon foot print. I just wish they had more food options here.

    Perfectly balanced Cold Brew.

    Although I don't live in LA, when I am there I ALWAYS make time to go to Earth Bean Coffee. There're a million coffee shops everywhere but this one is special. The design of the store is open and airy, and not cluttered with knick-knacks like many of the other shops. I've been a patron for a few years now, and even order their coffee online because I love it that much. Got some of my family members out-of-state hooked, too (hey...free shipping)! Pros: * Good prices (especially for über-trendy DTLA) * Vegan-friendly food that actually FILLS YOU UP * Delicious and unique hand-crafted coffee drinks (some have gold leaf on top) * Nicest staff ever! They are never rude and don't try to rush you * Website ordering available for us out-of-towners * Coffee is organic/fair trade * One tree is planted for every bag of coffee purchased * Totally Instagram-worthy (if you're into that) * Trendy décor yet also minimalist and industrial * Super cool mural by famed local artist "WRDSMTH" Cons: * I don't get to go there often because I live a few hours away * I end up going crazy shopping for things probably don't need in the other shops nearby (in the fashion district area) after I leave Earth Bean because the coffee and snacks get me on a good one (if that is a con). Last time I was there I popped in early May 2020 while on a road trip. I had a cold brew coffee with house-made oat milk. I asked the Barista to make it a little bit sweet and it was PERFECT! It was not too strong or bitter, it had just a touch of sweetness as I requested and was the perfect temperature to keep me cool on an 88-degree day. I paired it with "Avo Smash" which is their version of avocado toast served on a rustic European style bread. The avocado was extremely generous and was complemented nicely by the sweetness of the cherry tomato and crunch of the pine nuts. I tasted the slightest amount of salt which just set all the flavors off. I continued the rest of my drive not feeling too full but never hungry. Nice coffee buzz, too. Earth Bean is just minutes off the I-5 freeway. That day, I took a gamble they would be open because you never really know with the current situation (COVID crisis). As it happens, luck was in my favor! Not only were they open, but the friendly barista was also wearing masks and gloves. I appreciate that the business is following health protocols, and it shows they're running a clean and safe storefront. I didn't stick around long but did see some others picking up "to-go" orders which is a good sign. After I got my subsistence for the rest of the ride, and since I was in the Fashion District, I decided to buy some trendy masks from an outdoor vendor down the street as gifts for friends/family (confessions of a shopaholic). They all loved them! That wouldn't have happened if I didn't have the good sense to make a pit stop for a personal refuel at Earth Bean Coffee.

    I got the mushroom drink with oat... wow... amazing!!! Such a cute shop in a random area. Very clean, and the owner doesn't hover, and lets you ask any questions. I will definitely be back!

    Creme Brûlée Latte: $6.00
    Paul V.

    For what must be a year now Tilt Coffee Cafe's Cloud Latte (recently knocked off by Starbucks) has been my favorite coffee beverage in DTLA and the surrounding area. That might still be the case, but it's a close one as Earth Bean Coffee's Creme Brulee Latte has made a strong showing for that same title. Star 1: How were the service and atmosphere? I'll admit that Earth Bean Coffee's location is a bit unorthodox. The intersection of South Los Angeles and 11th in the Fashion District isn't exactly my go-to neighborhood for a quaint coffee shop compared to say the Arts District or the Northwest suburbs, but with other hot spots like Cilantro Lime nearby Earth Bean Coffee has just as much a right as anyone to try and continue to improve this part of town. Once you're inside the service and atmosphere are fantastic. Star. Star 2: How were the portions relative to the cost? $6.00 got me a good sized Creme Brulee Latte, and as you'll see that was essentially a bargain given the quality of this drink. Star. Stars 3 and 4: How was the food? I've had all shapes and sizes of new age coffee drinks, but a Creme Brulee latte was an entirely new concept for me, and Earth Bean executed it brilliantly. From the caramelized sugar top that could be mixed into the latte to the flavor of the coffee itself, this was more or less a perfect coffee drink in my mind. Two Stars. Star 5: Would you be excited to go back? Absolutely. Star.

    Turmeric ice latte
    Daniella P.

    Finally a great coffee shop in my area. Wonderful coffee and amazing specialty drinks. My brother is obsessed with the turmeric latte. They make their own oat, almond and coconut milk. The avocado toast I so good. Today I tired the camomile lavender ice tea. Yum!

    My new favorite spot for decadent matcha and hojicha drinks!…read more The cream top on the hojicha einspanner was so creamy and thick, and it was also the perfect level of sweetness. The strawberry matcha einspanner was also yummy and had a great presentation The space is pretty small but there are a few seats available. The line was around 20 minutes long on a Saturday afternoon. Like most spots in ktown, the parking lot is limited and you'll likely need to find street parking, but it is definitely worth the hype!

Upon entering the place is clean, sleek, and modern. We were greeted right away. I already knew I was leaving with 2 drinks for the drive back home. I ordered: 1. Cold brew vanilla: Delicious, I love that tou can see the vanilla cream on top. This was definitely what I needed to wake me up. 2. Matcha einspener: I tasted this and immediately loved it when leaving the store. I saved it for last. It was so light and refreshing. I could easily drink it all day if they had a bigger size lol. I was hoping to try the seasonal mango cream matcha, but sadly it was gone. 3. Pastries: I wanted to try the sampler but I don't thinking they had it yet. I tried one of the cinnamon pastries. It was soft and very cinnamony. Overall, it was a great experience and I'll be back soon.

    What an absolute treat in the Japan Town area! Not too far from the center, just a short walk away…read moreis Kokoro No Coffee- a pop-up coffee shop at Aloha Cafe. I stumbled across their Yelp page when I was visiting from out of town and checked the Instagram for their hours on a Saturday afternoon and was happy to see they were open! I am a sucker for pop-up coffee shop/cart concepts so I had to check it out. The pop-up is easy to find, it's outside facing into the parking lot, and they had a cute A-frame sign out by the street side. There was no line, and I ordered and sat down at one of the tables out front. The service was so warm, and I believe the shop is owned and operated by one man on his own! He was an absolute delight to meet, and he brought my matcha latte to me at the table when it was prepared. He suggested I get the cream top on it, and boy was that the perfect recommendation. I would say I'm a little bit of a matcha fiend... I think I got a matcha latte at 3 different places this day... and this one far surpassed the others. I think it was one of the best matcha lattes I have ever drank to-date. It was perfectly green, the matcha quality was phenomenal, both taste and look-wise. The texture was just right, perfectly creamy with barely any grittiness. The cream top only added to the drink, and didn't take away from the matcha flavor at all, which I feel like has happened at other places for me. I'm dreaming of this matcha latte days later, and need to go back to Kokoro No Coffee as soon as I am in town again. This was a spectacular find, and I hope this spot gets all the love it deserves! There is truly nothing like a great business ran by a great person and you can tell there's so much intention put into this concept. Highly, highly recommend and I could not sing praises more!

    Got there at 9am and ordered drinks. Friendly service and delicious coffee beans. Great pop up…read morespot to support located at Aloha Cafe in little Tokyo! I could see some outdoor sitting option to wait or enjoy coffee being helpful, yet currently it is only take out with paper and plastic cups available.
