This is a little cute coffee shop just outside Little Armenia. There are only metered street parking spots. They do not have a parking lot. (Meters in the area are $1/hour, max 4 hours between 8AM-8PM.) Egg coffee is a recent discovery of mine, and I was surprised to find a shop in this area that sells it! I opted for black Vietnamese coffee topped with the egg foam. This is different from the egg coffee on their menu because the one on the menu comes with condensed milk. The barista was friendly and helpful. Photos of the inside on Google didn't show that they have seating inside, so I was surprised to see a couple of tables and chairs. I can see myself coming here to get some work or reading done. They have a water dispenser on the side. Not sure about wifi or bathroom or outlets though. read more

Ñam Coffee cracked the code: Egg Coffee plus fresh air= Pure Weekend Happiness! Inside Ñam feels like a cozy hug wrapped in espresso. The baristas deserve their own shout-out. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about what they serve. They're quick to recommend something new, if you're not sure what to order and it doesn't disappoint. read more

When one coffee shop closes, another one will open (or replaces it). It saddened me to see Mestizo Coffee go out of business but I welcome this new coffee shop. Nam Coffee (est 2024) is a brand new lil coffee shop on Fountain ave in East Hollywood. They offer primarily Vietnamese style coffee and pastries. This cute compact coffee shop is owned by Vince Nguyen; his coffee story is quite interesting (see website). Amongst the coffee shop in the area, their interior design juts out like a lotus flower. Atmosphere was relaxing and has copious natural light. They have a modest selection of teas, coffee, and pastries. I came to grab a hot Vietnamese coffee; it was great. I was greeted by a young, polite and competent female staff. Pricing seems fair. Moreover, seating can be limited both indoor and outdoor. Parking is free but can be challenging in that area. Free wifi. No Cash accepted!! That's a Debbie downer for real. Overall, I had a good experience and enjoyed their hot coffee. I shall return. read more

Tried their Vietnamese coffee and it was nice and strong but a tad on the sweet side! I enjoyed it and it was very affordable! Def one of the better Vietnamese coffees I've had in LA The shop is small and there are only a few tables/seats. Also no public restrooms which is a downside. read more

First off very cute coffee shop!!! Fits the area perfectly. It's super aesthetic, the vibes are nice, service is phenomenal. The Salted Cream Vietnamese Coffee was excellent. The Salted Cream Matcha Ube however was short of perfection- I felt the there was sweetness missing to go with the matcha and salted cream. Felt like so much potential there! I would still go back because I know their coffee is their specialty and their pastries looked so good! read more

I ordered their egg coffee with extra egg foam and it was delicious! I like to mix my egg into my coffee (instead of just having it sit on top) and the salty egg paired perfectly with the sweet and slightly bitter Vietnamese coffee! I definitely would be back to try out their other coffees. read more

Lucky #8 review! OMG, as a Vietnamese person that lives six hours away their family (and even though the OC is right there...) I am so happy to have found this gem. I have seen the 'coffee' sign outside before, but I'm sure it was another institution before... But now and today, we have Nam Coffee. I got a ca phe sửa da (with the vegan condensed milk) and whewww, we are about to be up all night lmao. I had to split this baby into two portions! The coffee was ever-so-slightly burnt, but I just added a few splashes of almond milk when I got home and it was no biggie. Vietnamese-style coffee is bold and flavorful. If you haven't tried before, please prepare for a sweet and strong flavor that will def wake you all the way up. A reflection of our people! Lol. Very excited to see this in the neighborhood. I'll be back soon to try other items! Thank you anh for your help in ordering :) read more

Very good coffee, friendly service; the interior is light, airy, and surrounded by houseplants. Vietnamese ca phe is strong and authentic. I really enjoyed the egg coffee (it IS fairly sweet despite claims to the contrary - the base is mixed with condensed milk, and then topped with the salty egg cream, but the sweetness pairs well with the bitterness of the coffee itself); no complaints from the rest of our party re: the other beverages. read more

I come here on Lunar New Year because I want to support a fellow Vietnamese business owner, and it did not disappoint. Ironically, I can't drink Viet coffee because it's too strong for me. But I got the Ube Matcha Sea Salt Cream Top everyone was talking about. The drink was presented so nice and beautiful in layered. Starting with a thick cream top, then to the ube and matcha flavors. To be honest, the sea salt cream was pretty salty to my liking but once I stir it up, everything blends in so nicely. I didn't think ube would pair so well with matcha but the nuttiness, subtle vanilla sweet of ube combine in this umami matcha is chef kiss. I'd say nothing stood out to me completely but this combination is definitely chef kiss. Nice ambiance with cool graphic overall, but I was expected Vietnamese R&B instead of jazz, but no complaints as it can be a nice place to hang out with a friend. Cons: Limited parking either meter or 2h in pretty sketchy neighborhoods. Limited seatings, so not for studying. My drink was $8, I think it's a fair price. Would come back if I'm ever in the area.

So great to have a Vietnamese coffee shop on this side of town! I love stopping by whenever I'm in the area. The signature Vietnamese coffee and the Saigon latte are my faves. The service is excellent and they'll customize your drink upon request! read more

SO GOOD. First of all, the decor inside Nam Coffee is very cute, warm, and welcoming. I loved how they were able to incorporate orange pops of color while not being too much and in your face. Street parking is relatively easy as well, which always makes the experience better. I had the Egg Coffee, and this drink was AMAZING. I really enjoyed it, and I haven't had this strong of an opinion on a drink in a long time. It was creamy and sweet, yet still had a very strong coffee flavor. The egg flavor made the drink very decadent and reminded me of butterscotch. 10/10. It was really a drink that you slowly sip on and enjoy every moment. The shop itself pretty small- there are only three tables inside and only two you could reasonably do work from. However, we didn't have trouble finding a seat around noon on a Tuesday. Service was very nice too, I need to go back. The Ube Matcha is calling my name. read more

Egg coffee is good, but do not get the ube salted cream matcha, I've tried different kinds of ube matcha and this one from NAM is the worst I've had. 1st time I tried it when my husband brought it home,and I dint taste any ube at all nor the "salted"cream, matcha is so watered down also we thought we just got a bad one for that day, yesterday Father's Day we went again since my husband loved their egg coffee and I want to try the salted ube matcha again, 1st of all it took a while for them to make my order, we walked to the car and tried the drink, it dint taste any ube at all,so I went back and asked if they can give me more ube cream or whatever the used. So they only use like a a water down ube food coloring that's why there's no ube flavor and just a fainted line of ube color on the drink. The gave me that watered down ube on a small paper cup to add to my matcha it made my matcha a bit purple but the taste dint make any difference. I ordered my matcha with regular whole milk and basically my ordered tasted like a watered down matcha and milk.i think this place is better off just selling coffee and remove matcha from their menu coz it's really not good. For the price of $8 I would have a better ube matcha on my usual place than here. read more

This is a new Vietnamese coffee shop that I was very excited to try when I first heard about it, especially after seeing all the unique offerings on their menu! At my first visit, I tried the salted cream matcha ube because everything in that name sounds like the combination for my perfect drink. The matcha was pretty decent, but I didn't really taste much ube despite the splashes of bright purple color, so I was a bit disappointed (although besides that the drink was still pretty good). I decided to give Nam Coffee another try a couple of weeks later, and got the salted cream iced coffee. The salted cream was full of chunks this time, so the whole drink became really unappetizing. I hope that was just a one-off issue because I see that the other reviews are great, and the texture of the cream in the matcha I tried before was fine. The service is friendly and I love to support local businesses so I will try to come back here in the future after they've had some time to settle in. read more

Newly opened coffee spot about a month or so. I was super excited to try. Huge fan of Vietnamese coffee, so finding this hidden gem was icing on the cake. Customer service was great. She explained the menu and asked if I had any questions regarding the menu, so going the extra mile on this always top notch service. I decided to try the egg coffee. The egg foam was nice and creamy with the dash of cinnamon. Drinks are fairly priced and not overly sweetened, which is also another huge plus. If you like strong coffee with great service, I highly suggest trying this place out. Thanks read more

This place, is the BEST. I'm from the valley and I drive to this location every Sunday. No other place compares to this one. My go to is a strawberry matcha, and they are the only ones who make it the way I like it. There aren't any good spots in the valley that live up to my expectations but this spot in downtown LA does. I love their strawberry matcha so much. Their coffee drinks such as the salted cream coffee and signature Vietnamese coffee are just as delicious. I wish there were multiple locations of Nam Coffee! Maybe one day they will expand and come to the San Fernando Valley. read more

Nam Coffee - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Nam Coffee is a cute Vietnamese coffee shop in LA! They have a wide variety of drinks, from coffee to matcha to teas. I got the ube matcha latte less sweet, and it was yummy, but light in matcha flavor. I do think that if you like a good, desert-y drink, you'll like this one. I do wish it was stronger in matcha flavor though. Overall, I would rate the drink a 7/10. The drinks came in a timely manner and were very friendly. I love the decor in this spot and there is a good amount of seating. I will come back to try their banana matcha latte. read more

I was so excited to find this place because I find Vietnamese coffee shops hard to come by, so whenever I do find one I I have to try it. So this is my first time visiting Nam. I ordered the "salted cream" oz what does exactly what it sounds like Vietnamese coffee with a delicious salted cream top. I will say that the flavor of the coffee is great. found the taste to be quite enjoyable but for the price of 8$ I would have preferred a little less cream and more of the actual coffee. The size of this coffee does not justify the $8 price tag. not incl read more

This place serves up some fantastic Vietnamese coffee. Service, however, could be better. I stopped by for the first time and asked the cashier what she recommends for a first timer, making sure to add that I don't have any dietary restrictions and I'm not picky. Her response? "Well, it's all personal choice". Okay, that's not being a very good sales person or customer service rep for the shop. I went with the Salted Cream Coffee that was $8, pricey for what it is. But the coffee tasted great with strong flavors and the salt cream mixed well with it. read more

Met a friend here. Parking can be a hassle depending on the day just from the street parking restrictions and trash days but it can be worth it. The place is small with a few seating options but from what I've seen, most people take their orders to go. I've never had an issue finding seating inside. The people there are nice and willing to explain their menu if you are unfamiliar with some of the ingredients. They have simple drinks and specialty options as well. Their drinks can be on the sweet side but they can also accommodate sweetness level in some cases if you ask them. Their coffee isn't strong and some of the taste of it gets lost with the specialty drinks, but it still hits the spot. My friend ordered the Saigon Latte and I went with the Egg Latte (both iced). Our drinks didn't take long to prepare. My friend really, really, really loved his drink. He kept mentioning how much he liked his drink the whole time we were there. I really enjoyed my Egg Latte as well. It wasn't eggy, tastes like a custard foam top. I definitely think this will be a place in our coffee rotation and the rest of their menu sounds just as promising. read more

Really great coffee. Egg coffee is amazing. Just like they make in Ha Noi. Friendly staff, good service. The building is small, and intimate, with a few wooden booths and some outdoor seating.

The space was beautiful and clean. Service was great. The barista was kind and helpful. The matcha itself was, ok. It was lackluster While the salted cream was tasty there was no hint of ube flavor just purple coloring. The matcha was relatively flavorless, the drink was overall not very sweet. Luckily just caffeinated which was what I was in need of. But not tasty like I was hoping for. An ok experience overall. read more

This is not my first time getting egg coffee. I've tried egg coffee from Da Vien in OC (4.5/5) and Saigon Coffee in SD (10/5; favorite). Gf and I got egg coffee as we've been craving it really bad but this one left us disappointed and dissatisfied. It was way too sweet and it's funny that they mention "not too sweet" on the menu as it did not apply to our drinks. We were craving that nice balance of dark strong coffee flavor (kind of what you expect from Viet coffee) and sweet egg. We instead got a coffee drink that tasted like a sweet latte along with the sweet egg on top. It was too much. We went home and added our own coffee to balance the flavor. Ham croissants were okay. Most likely won't come back. Good service though and lots of seats on the inside despite the cafe being small. 2/5 rating due to failing to match other egg coffee's we've had in the past. read more

Yum! A couple years ago, I had a trip planned to Hanoi that sadly, fell through. One thing I remember really looking forward to, was their egg cream coffee. Found out about Nam from IG and immediately made plans to stop by. Parking is a bit tragic on Fridays due to street sweeping from 11-2 (or something like that). I lucked up and was able to park at the 1 hr meter right in front. The cafe itself is bright and semi-spacious with seating inside and out. I got the egg cream coffee and my friend got the I've matcha. Both were really good! We took our drinks and walked to the noodle shop, a couple doors down, for lunch. 10/10 recommend! read more
