My husband and I got their first flight cold brew and it was pretty good for our first time. The coffee tasted great and the foam was not super sweet and didn't overpower the coffee (which I prefer). This is a good coffee shop to try out in Torrance. Service was great, friendly staff, and wait time wasn't long about 5min. read more

Hands down one of the best matcha I've had!! From the latte to the cream, the matcha flavor was very forward and creamy. It was not bitter at all and the price was honestly very fair. My friend ordered the hojicha latte and it was equally delicious and nutty. The interior is also super cute and plane-themed (super thought out!!) If ever in the Torrance area, I recommend checking this place out! read more

I saw some great photos online and wanted to try first flight. There was a parking lot with lots of spaces available right out front which was convenient. They offered me to pick my choice of milk for my drink and were able to make it unsweetened as well. I really wanted to try their first flight matcha. They had five people working behind the counter so my drink came out in almost no time. the matcha was rich and I was glad it was unsweetened so I could really taste the flavor. Their bakery case had some good looking croissants so I will have to try that another time. This place was definitely popular there was a non stop stream of people coming in and out for their caffeine. There is soft music playing and about gave small tables with chairs and power outlets available. I really enjoyed my drink, it was $7 and I think it was worth that price. read more

I'm normally not a matcha guy, but I was very impressed by their signature first flight matcha latte. It was light, mildly sweet, and the matcha flavor was there but wasn't very overpowering. The color was spectacular and I appreciated the aesthetic sprinkle of matcha powder on top. Bonus points for their cups having a little boarding pass decoration (really on theme). 10/10 would recommend. read more

We wanted to check out this coffee shop and I ordered a pumpkin spiced latte with oat milk. It's a small shop with a little bit of seating. The service was good and staff was great. I am loving the theme of the coffee shop, there are blank baggage tags you can draw on and add to the other cute messages the customers leave. By the time we got our drink, there was a short line forming. read more

Really enjoyed the matcha here! I got their classic and it was a perfect blend of earthy matcha and cream. We also tried their first flight coffee but i wasn't as big of a fan - maybe need to try a different flavor next time. Will be back to try other matchas for sure! the inside is very cute, theres a few tables in the back and everything is themed with planes / flights as the name suggests. service was nice and quick! read more

Stopped by First Flight in Torrance and ordered a cortado, which was solid and well made - nice balance and easy to drink. I also had a matcha, ordered without any of the extra cream toppings, and I really liked it. The matcha was strong and good tasting, with a clean flavor that wasn't overly sweet. I tend to prefer matcha without all the added creams and sugar, and this one hit the mark for me. The space itself is on the smaller side with limited seating, but they do have a nice area in the back with a couch. The staff was friendly and welcoming, which is always important to me. A couple friends ordered different drinks and everything looked good coming out. Overall, a good neighborhood coffee stop with quality drinks and nice service. read more

A great first experience. I got in and the place was busy! Clearly they're doing something right. I like the little nods to the airport, really adds to that first flight ambiance. The baristas, although it was busy and chaotic, are really in tune to what they're doing. Also really friendly but don't come off fake/trying too hard to please which I appreciate. I like the open concept and being able to see behind the counter while they're making drinks. I ordered the maple sea salt latte, worried about it being crazy sweet and to my surprise it wasn't at all. It was perfect honestly. I am definitely coming back to try something else, maybe the French toast latte? read more

First Flight Coffee is a sort of new neighborhood coffee shop located in the Shinhan Bank parking lot off Crenshaw Blvd. The cafe itself is small and boasts a clean minimalist design with a friendly team behind the counter. The drinks are a bit on the milder side, but they are freshly made to order (even with pickup orders). I think they are still working on perfecting their drink menu, but it is decent. I'm sure the team is willing to make adjustments as needed. There is limited seating inside and the ambience is generally quiet. Both the Iced Americano and Iced Hazelnut Latte were good. Definitely recommend if you are in the area for the service alone.:) read more

Came here for matcha during Thanksgiving break! This place was pretty poppin'. Decided on classic matcha with oatmilk and touch of honey. Sis got Earl grey oatmilk latte with 50% sweet. My matcha very strong!! Maybe a lil too strong for me loll! I think i wouldnt have minded a tad but more honey, i tasted my sis's earl grey and the matcha didnt seem as robust and sweet was conservative which is good. She liked it tho! Overall esp for price i was very happy! Would recommend! read more

This is one of my favorite spots for my boyfriend and I to go and get coffee. My boyfriend really likes the espresso tonic and their maple sea salt latte is soooo good. Do yourself a favor and pair it with a crookie which is a cookie and croissant and is one of the greatest treats you will ever eat. I do miss their seasonal menu but their standard menu is really good. read more

Overall experience was a 3.5/5. Got here right when they opened at 7 which is great for people who have work early in the morning. The interior space is clean and minimal with some seating indoors and outdoors. WiFi is available for those who choose to study or work there. Service could have been friendlier but I can't expect much from Gen Z kids. I ordered the first flight matcha and a bacon cheddar scone. The matcha cream on top was good and the drink wasn't too milky, I suggest drinking it quickly so it doesn't get watered down. They warmed up my scone for me but the center was still cold when I ate it. read more

This matcha id rate aaa maybe 7 or 8 outta 10. I think it was okay I wish it had a more bitter taste but that is just my preference tho. Overall still better quality matcha than most places. Its located in a very small plaza, and this place can get busy so parking is hard sometimes. They have more selections for matcha and coffee. I just got a regular first flight matcha with oatmilk. read more

southbay locals know how cursed this location is.... but i'm really rooting for them because their coffee is pretty good! they have a nice variety of unique flavors, especially the french toast latte! the drink wasn't too sweet and the cinnamon foam/cream was sooo delicious. i wish the coffee was stronger, since the coffee flavor was overpowered by all the milk. hoping to see winter seasonal flavors soon! read more

Came early on a Saturday morning and was not disappointed. At first sip you can tell the quality is pretty top tier, so don't expect it to taste artificial like a Starbucks matcha latte they have the real stuff over here. Service was good and quick but then again I was the only customer when I went. The seating area inside is pretty small, so there aren't a ton of seats. read more

Stopped by First Flight Coffee around 2 PM and was surprised by how popular it was -- it started filling up right as I placed my order. I went with the cashier's recommendation, the French Toast Latte (half sweet with cold foam), and it was so good! It had just the right amount of sweetness, and the sprinkle of cinnamon on top was the perfect touch. You could actually taste the coffee without it being overly sweet, which I really appreciated. I almost went with the Strawberry Matcha, which I heard is also really popular, but I'm glad I tried one of their signature drinks first. I'll definitely be coming back -- maybe even tomorrow -- to get it again! read more

Solid first visit! We got two drinks, their signature First Flight Matcha and the Honey Cinnamon Latte. For the matcha, it's a solid one - made with ceremonial grade matcha, milk, and their "matcha cloud foam" which is pretty on point with the trend. The matcha itself is on the milder side, but good. Matcha foam does add sweetness so with my drink less sweet, it was enough sweetness for me. For the latte, solid espresso drink with a good ratio of cinnamon and honey! There were some pastries and croissants in the case, but didn't get to try. Not sure where it is sourced but looked good. Next visit! read more

I'm so happy they opened in Torrance! I'm always excited when a new coffee shop opens up. They are known for their coffee but also their matcha drinks here. We got a couple matcha drinks and their iced coffee. Everyone in the group was pretty happy with what they ordered. I'd come back again to try other drinks. There was a line going out the store which goes to show you how good their products are. I will say the highlight of our visit was not their coffee...it was their CROOKIE. A croissant cookie! I had never heard of it before so was curious to try it. They warmed it up for us and it was the best of both worlds: warm sweet gooey cookie with crunchy airy buttery croissant. I'm glad my friends only wanted one bite so I could eat most of it for myself lol. I think about the crookie often now... read more

Absolute fav was the crookie (cookie and croissant). So soft and chewy For drinks - my friend and I got the Spanish latte and seasonal maple sea salt latte. Both were great, not watery or milky. The foam for the maple sea salt added the perfect sweetness Limited indoor seating so not ideal for large groups read more

Interesting drinks at this recently opened shop, I like that they offer the option to tune the sweetness of their drinks and that different foam toppings can be used to enhance the flavor of most offerings as well. Tried the Spanish latte with sweet vanilla foam and signature First Flight Matcha, both were delicious. Hints of sweetness for both by default, very friendly and quick counter service, and fun designs on their merchandise. read more

First flight matcha was incredible. Not too sweet and right amount of bitterness. I love the cream and you can see how it's made. Interesting they whipped it up and included the matcha cream topping on top. Highly recommend and service was fast since there's four workers in a busy Friday morning. The space wasn't too big so many folks are in and out. read more

I walked over from my hotel and noticed the grand opening, so I decided to check it out after seeing other spots nearby with great reviews. The place has a cool vibe, though the space is a bit tight. I wanted to sit and enjoy my drink inside, but the back area was already full, so I grabbed a seat out front instead. Service was great, and my drink came out pretty fast. Not long after, a line started forming out the door, so it definitely gets busy, but they move things along quickly. My drink was amazing, and I'm already looking forward to trying some of their other recommendations next time I'm in the area. I'll definitely be back! read more
