    This place is hidden in the streets of East LA. It's very easy to miss if driving in this area. The way i came across this business was when i sporadically decided to take a walk around my neighborhood and seen Mexes Cafe store front. Had no real expectations from this place but once i walked in, i was impressed with the amount of decor and details this business has inside. The lighting and atmosphere inside can't be easily replicated. This place offers good coffee and a food menu which mainly is breakfast. When i visited the place i ordered their Horchatta latte which was average. I will have to visit again to try out there other lattes they offer but overall i felt like the horchata Latte i ordered was very average. People here are nice and welcoming.

    feels like home, i can't express enough how cozy it is. popped in for a solo date and ordered the mini burritos and drink service was friendly and timely

    I've passed this place for most of my life, found out about a year ago that they are a coffee shop. I've been wanting to check out this place for some time because of the creativity in the latte's, the type of latte's options I have seen in the reviews and because it's a local business. I didn't try any of the food but I did get two different types of Latte's in one visit, I usually do this with new places to see if it's worth it to return. I ordered the masa pan and also ordered the horchata latte, both were very watered down. The service was okay. The decor inside the place is great and having r&b soul playing in the background was a great vibe/ambiance.(The altons, durand jones & omar apollo) This place has soo much potential and can really grow if the drinks are made properly. Having pictures at the top is a nice touch but drinks need work. Rooting for this place!

    ​I've been a resident of East LA for seven years, and for just as long, I've passed by Mexes Cafe, always meaning to stop. This past Saturday, I finally had the chance, and it was inspired by our local community coming together to support the owner--a true testament to the fact that Mexes is more than just a coffee shop; it's a longstanding pillar of our community. ​Walking in, the atmosphere is immediately vibrant and welcoming, truly embracing its rich Latino roots. It strikes the perfect balance, serving as a great spot for casual meet-ups with neighbors or a quiet place to settle in and get some work done. ​What sets Mexes apart is their creativity. They are clearly innovators in the local coffee scene. I was especially impressed to learn that they were the first cafe to create the now-popular Strawberry Matcha Latte! Their menu is full of other inventive drinks, like the unique Aztec Latte, a delightful Hazelnut Latte with Vanilla Cold Foam, and various other specialty cold foams (I tried the Strawberry Cream Cold Foam--a must-try!). ​Beyond the drinks, they offer a hearty breakfast menu and a great selection of pastries. The quality and inventive flavors are well worth the trip. The prices are totally comparable to other coffee shops in the area, offering great value for such a unique and high-quality experience. ​If you're looking to support a genuine, community-focused local business that serves up fantastic, creative coffee and delicious food, Mexes Cafe is the place to be. Don't wait seven years like I did--stop by today!

    I hung out with a couple of Yelp friends at the Citadel Outlets, and from there, we decided to go to Mexes Cafe. One of them had been before and invited us to go along with her. Mexes Cafe is located in East LA, a part of town I wasn't familiar with, so I almost thought parking would either have been one of two four-letter words that starts with "p-a-i"^. Luckily, they told me it wasn't, so off we went to Mexes Cafe. From Citadel Outlets, I took the 5 and 710 North before exiting at Ford Blvd, taking a left at Floral, and then pulling into the small parking lot right before hitting Eastern. If you take the same route I took, don't go straight on Floral; otherwise, I would have gotten back on the freeway. How small is the parking lot? Pretty small that it can hold only about 15 cars tops. However, even with the three of us in separate cars, the lot was only about half full when we arrived on a Saturday at about 4:30 PM. There are two entry points into this lot, one on Floral and one on Eastern. I can't be certain it's wide enough for two cars to pass each other; if it is, it'd be a tight squeeze. The other two were interested in a latte art, which would have entailed having to scan a QR code by the register and going through the process of selecting the desired artwork. While probably not arduous, I didn't feel like going through the trouble, so I simply went with an iced chai latte. Actually, I was looking for something non-caffeinated, but the barista, Angel, mentioned that only the options from the kids menu were non-caffeinated. It was getting kind of late in the day, but since it wasn't *that* late, I figured a chai latte would keep me company for the next hour and a half. I asked Angel how long the wait would be, and she estimated five minutes, which was spot on. The first friend who recommended Mexes got there first and placed an order of a Mazapan Latte with a latte art that resembled an anime character. The other friend got a Strawberry Matcha using art from a photo of a caricature that we had just gotten from the Citadel Outlets. However, he made a mistake and got my caricature on his drink when he was trying to use his caricature instead. It made for quite an awkward moment where he'd be drinking my face LOL. But wow, they nailed the latte art of my face perfectly! Well, at least the caricature version of me lol. As he was drinking the Strawberry Matcha, my caricature remained mostly intact for a lot of the time we spent there. How did my iced chai latte taste? It tasted great! Exactly what I was expecting out of a chai latte, which used to be a guilty pleasure of mine around when the pandemic hit. We enjoyed hanging out at the cafe for over an hour until they closed at 6 PM, but they didn't really kick us out. They politely let us know it was just about closing time and gave us ample time to gather our belongings and use the restroom prior to leaving. Mexes was a great spot to just chillax after spending the majority of our afternoon at the outlet mall. However, I did have some gripes about our visit there. First and foremost, the music inside was too loud. For a cafe, the music should have been way softer that it kind of got hard to hear my friends, though we certainly weren't trying to shout over the music. Second, the table I was sitting at was pretty rocky and unstable. The cup I was given for my iced chai latte didn't have a lid, and I was getting nervous that I'd spill the drink all over the table. I had to hold the cup to ensure I wouldn't. Lastly, my drink had quite a bit of ice inside. A little less maybe next time please? Service from Angel was quite good I thought. She was also pretty helpful in addressing my friend's questions about the latte art and how to submit the desired artwork to use on his drink. However, I was a little perplexed that I couldn't get a printed receipt, even when the order tablet gave an option to print. She mentioned it could be texted or emailed to me; I chose to enter my phone number into the tablet to receive the receipt. Mexes Cafe also has a stamp card where if you purchase 5 drinks, your 6th one is free, which is quite generous I must say! At other shops, you'd have to purchase almost twice as many drinks to get the free one. They do have some eats, but at the time we visited, they only had pastries, which I wasn't in the mood for. However, I noticed on their Toast ordering page that they offer pozole and birria on weekends only? Something worth asking if you go earlier in the day than we did. Overall, a good solid cafe to visit. I don't go to East LA, so I can't be certain of when my next visit will be, but if I lived nearby, especially within walking distance, I'd almost certainly be a regular. My other two friends live closer, and I can definitely see them making return visits to this cafe whenever they swing by the area. ^ If you're not sure what either of the last letters are, it's the 4th and 14th letters of the alphabet.

    Justin M.

    Great place for coffee, especially if you're a fan of (printed) latte art! Huge shoutout to Angel for being their hospitality. They were super patient with me & didn't heistate to answer any of my questions, considering that this was my first experience with latte art that can be printed from any (digital) picture that you bring in. I came here because a friend who'd I just met at Yelp Elite Event wanted to check it out. Being that I'm always down to check out an establishment that I have yet to experience (& I had no other prior commitments for the day since I had said aside for the aforementioned event), I felt it was more than appropriate to make the short 11 min drive away. Needless to say, been a fan of latte art, I was pleasantly surprised that I had never come across a place that could print art based on any picture that you bring in. Since I wasn't really prepared for this, I actually had a picture of a caricature drawing from the aforementioned Yelp Elite Event that we had just attended. That said, it was quite impressive to see them replicate the drawing onto the foam that topped my drink! (Funny think, I was too DRINKS: Strawberry Matcha - 8.4 / 10 Really great balance of strawberry + green matcha. Not overly sweet. The fruitiness really shines through & is equally matched by the mellow & smooth matcha. I really like the unique decor - which is heavily influenced by the surrounding Hispanic heritage. Music is popping, but not too overly loud that you can't carry a conversation. Just a friendly note, that as a coffee place, they do close around 6pm on Saturday (the day that we went). BTW, don't forget to grab a stamp card on your way out - get 5, the 6th is free!

    Mazapan Einspnner

    Kind staff and yummy drinks. I got a mazapán einspanner and got to add my photo design to it. The coffee was on the sweeter side, but definitely not overly sweet. The coffee had crushed peanuts in it which I thought was different but honestly went really well and added some crunch to it. Solid spot its a bit out of the way but would definitely go back for the cute drinks and maybe try something else.

    Mazapan Latte
    Victoria L.

    I had some time in the morning before work and I stopped here. I'm so happy I did. I ordered the mazapan latte and it was perfectly sweet. It also had the right amount of espresso. It also came with this super cute Precious moments teddy bear design. It was a perfect start to the morning. The spot has plenty of parking and is very simply designed. Best way to describe it is that it is unassuming while providing delicious coffee. It's intelligista coffee. The service matches the design in that is it very friendly and timely. I definitely recommend coming here if you're in the area and trying a coffee.

    So good and warm. Cafe de oila from this place is amazing.

    The coffee is amazing here. One of my favorite coffee shops I must say the pastries are also pretty good as well as the food, but in my opinion, the coffee is where it's at. I definitely love the aesthetic and the vibe. The service is also great. I've never had any issue. Will continue to go here for sure.

    Chai latte
    Siria F.

    I'd been wanting to visit this place so when I drove up to LA from SD, this was my first stop. Walked in and was greeted right away. My bf asked if they had decaf options the cashier said yes and we put in our order. The cashier was very friendly and walked me through the steps to upload my latte art. He asked for the number I received from the website where I picked the image I wanted on my drink and wrote it down on my cup and did the same for my bfs drink. While we waited more people came in and it seemed like they were getting busy. They had a good playlist so music was nice while we waited. Then the drinks for the people that ordered after us came out first. I know they were busy so I decided I'd wait to see if our drinks were next before saying anything. Another drink came out but it was for another customer that had been waiting before us. Then my drink finally came next as my bf went to get it they called out my bf name and told him they didn't have decaf for his order, so he had to go with regular caffeinated option. Miscommunication with front & back end staff on that one. My bf came back with my drink and to my disappointment my latte didn't have the art I had picked out for it. When his drink was ready I went up and told them about the art latte they apologized and added the image but since the top of my drink had cinnamon sprinkled the image was blurred and you couldn't see it. Since it was a mishap on their end, I wish they would've scooped out the top layer or added some white foam before placing the art latte. Then my bf white chocolate latte was ready and they also forgot to add the art latte on his drink. On top of that we tasted the drink and it had no flavor, at this point we were both over it and just walked out with drinks. After a long drive I was looking forward to this but unfortunately it was not a good experience. Not sure if I'd come back. One thing I did appreciate is that they have a private lot and I didn't have to look for parking.

    well..this place kinda socially awkward. i have had mexes cafe in my lists of places go try & since i was in the area I decided to come here. i like that they do special characters on the top of your drink which is what caught my interest. they do have parking which is nice because most cafes don't. when you walk in it was sort of a bit chaotic. a lot going on at the front counter where you are supposed to place your order. the ambiance of this 'cafe' is really awkward. the lady at the front who was taking the orders was nice but awkward. i skimmed through their menu & got myself the iced strawberry matcha latte w/ cold foam + request of hello kitty character on top. and i also got a chorizo & potatoes burrito with the requested of added eggs. i didn't mind if it was extra. mhm, let's start with the matcha drink...it was good, i liked that their pink cold foam tasted like strawberry milk cold foam. although it was good it wasn't enough for me + i was kinda irritated on how i asked for the hello kitty character and they didn't put it on so when i told the gentleman that i had requested a character he said no problem & was really nice to do the character on my drink but it didn't look remotely as good as the persons drink who was next to mine. and the chorizo potato burrito was missing my egg. it was 30 cent xtra added which is why i didnt say anything. it was a bit chaotic the minute I walked in & i feel kinda bad bcos it was just two people working but still. the workers were nice but didn't succeed my expectations as a first customer.

    East LA staple that i love returning to when im in LA. i got their mini burritos- one potato and egg, the other nopal and egg, with an iced chai and image foam. the mini burritos were filled, and the iced chai was really good! service was fast, tacos were hot, and i love the interior. it's so cozy :)

Ulew started in 2023 as a pop-up on the corner of Olympic & Soto selling natural juices. Now they have a café where they also serve Guatemalan coffee, pastries, and traditional & creative food options. The entrance is a bit tricky. Go through the doorway by the flower shop and proceed down the hallway. You place your order off to the right and on the left of the hall is the dining area. The lounge is warm & welcoming. It feels and looks like you are in someone's living room. The walls are lined with artwork by local artists, which are for sale, and there are even books & board games for your entertainment. Our order consisted of Café de Olla, Café Del Dia, Latte De La Barrio, and a Jalapeño Cream Cheese Croissant. My Café de Olla was perfect. The first sip was a delight on the palate. I could taste the notes of spices and a hint of orange. The other two beverages were just as good. The bold, richness of the coffee stood out on the Café Del Dia, and the Latte De La Barrio was delicious. I also liked the traditional clay mugs in which they were served. (Large orders are served in a to-go cup.) The Jalapeño Cream Cheese Croissant was also exceptionally good. The croissant was flaky & fluffy with a generous amount of cream cheese filling and jalapeño slices. In addition to the locals, about 10 police officers came in for breakfast. A true testament to how good this place is. I must mention that the staff are incredibly friendly here. The lady at the register, the man who brought us our order and kept checking on us, and the guy who bussed our table. Not only do they care about serving quality food & drink but they also care about their customers' overall experience. *Street parking.
