    Very clever Instagram-able Coffee shop based on Tarantino's love for Pam Grier. Makes seeing a movie at the Vista more personal, creating a stronger sense of a video-geek community. The egg and cheese snacks were a good savory dish to keep me filled for the 3-hour Nolan film. You can watch old VHS movies in a tiny hole-like cavern inside the shop. Cool hang and good for a quick drink and chat with friends, but not enough outlets or big enough to spend hours working there.

    WOW! One of the coolest coffee shops ever. Located right next door to the Vista Theater, this place truly feels like stepping back in time. The decor is incredibly nostalgic, they even have small old-school TVs inside, the kind with built in VCRs. I felt like I was time traveling the moment I walked in. Service was good, and my latte was solid, not the best I've ever had, but definitely enjoyable. The pastries looked great, and I appreciated that they offer gluten free options as well. Overall, it's just such a cool, unique vibe that's hard to emulate. Even if you're not a huge coffee person, it's worth stopping by for the atmosphere alone. They also sell beer and Rose if you were looking for something else :)

    No parking, just street parking. Such a cozy environment. Before even entering the cafe, you can smell the aroma of the coffee luring you in. Even on a rainy day this place is popping. The workers there are so kind and helpful. This place does amazing coffees, matcha on the other hand is alright. I would say if you are craving matcha, go across the street to Handles. They do have seasonal drinks that you must try. I got their signature cookie butter latte and wow. Finished it right away. So good, I can't wait to come again when I'm in the area!

    First of all, it is a really cool place, and I was kind of blown away on how cool everything was. If you haven't had a chance to check it out, definitely go. Their prices are fair. I mean, especially now everything's expensive but the coffee is definitely worth it. Also the people that work there are so friendly and nice. It just makes everything come together better. As for the place itself, it's really cool. There's all this memorabilia has that cool 6070 style. They have a bunch of merchandise that you can buy which of course we did when we went. And all in all, just really cool. (sidenote) to the manager/managers,,,, if any of the collectibles/action figures goes on sale, please let me know.....

    The nostalgic ambiance is worth the visit alone! If there's ever a place that tastes like the 80's and 90's this would be the joint! A must go if you're watching a movie at THE VISTA not mention Pam's Cafe is the cinefiles café paradise. They also have wine so it's a pleasant touch when a café does both uppers and downers.

    This cafe is located right next to the Vista theater. My husband and I decided to stop by after watching a movie. The inside, although small, is packed with so much movie memorabilia. It's also decorated with fun novelty items that are related to movies. Unfortunately, the cafe was closing 10 minutes after we arrived. We weren't able to look and really enjoy the place like we wanted to, but the employees still allowed us to order and sip a bit of our drink before they closed up. I'll definitely be back to try their snacks and bites. They had some seasonal items and Cap'N Crunch cereal (because it's Tarantino's favorite). The drink I ordered was a matcha latte, which was actually pretty good. Definitely visit if you're in the area or just finished a movie at the Vista. It's definitely worth it!

    Stopped by Pam's Coffy and went with the butterscotch caramel coffee and a slice of cherry almond pie. The coffee had a really bold, rich flavor--serious gourmet stuff--and the pie was super fresh and delicious, a perfect pairing. The vibe definitely leans into Tarantino fandom, so you'll see plenty of fanboys hanging around, but it adds to the quirky atmosphere. Overall, a cool spot with quality coffee and desserts that hit the mark. Would recommend if you're in the area and want something a little different.

    I love coming here because they have different options. Sometimes the big chain coffee shops get boring and this is perfect. Amazing quality coffee and pastries, it hits the spot for an afternoon pick me up or a morning treat. They usually get busy in the morning so I try to come during my afternoon break when it's more calm. The coffee itself is always perfectly made and they also offer different dairy options. The staff is always friendly.

    Amazing coffee, service, and food! My fiancé and I tried Pam's Coffy on Pam Grier's birthday, so it was fitting to get a coffee and a birthday cake treat. The coffee is so good, and their treats are amazing! My fiancé likes their brown sugar pie and I love their strawberry pie. Their coffees really hit the spot and they have a nice location right next to the Vista theater. You can bring in your treats and coffee into the theater since they're both owned by Tarantino. This place is a must and my fiancé and I will be going back!

    I absolutely love this coffee shop! It is small in a good way as there is such a great atmosphere: cozy home-like chairs, fun menu options, and awesome staff!! I had been meaning to come here when it first opened and I finally came when I had the chance. I was unsure what to order as their drink options are very unique and customizable! *Add different flavored syrups to your drinks whether you want aromic flowers, fruit, sweet etc. * I ordered an Iced Butterscotch Coffee and requested it to be a little less sweet. I was in love with this drink! I love Butterscotch candy but was worried it might be too sweet as a drink but the lovely cashier with the blue hair reassured me that is their most loved drink. *They do not lid your drink but you can go ahead and do that at the countertop full of cream, sugar, lids, napkins, and stirrers. I would totally make this my go-to drink place if it was closer to me in Burbank! I vote next location should be in Burbank. I will keep coming when I'm in the area. The drinks are delicious and not overhyped at all.

    Serious ambiance, evoking 70's nostalgia for any GenXer. Check out the photos, they tell it all. There's a fun VHS viewing vestibule on the side of the shop. I like the fact that they only serve drip coffee here, though enhance-able via a selection of syrups and flavorings. They also host a variety of coffee-shop styled sweets and fun Pam Grier, Coffy merchandise. The staff was very friendly, happy to point out the various attractions - I was torn between the Fonz lunchbox and the John Travolta doll. Lots of comfortable seating, both inside and out.

    Welcome to Pam's Coffy.

    Pam's Coffy (est 2024) is a cute tiny coffee shop in Los Feliz. It was named in honor of Pam Grier and her iconic role in the 1973 blaxplotation film, "Coffy," the coffee shop is attached to The Vista Theatre, owned by Quentin Tarantino. I came early morning to grab a coffee and check out their vibe. From the outside it doesn't juts out because it blends quite well with the theatre bldg. Indoor space was extremely small but the 80's decor and tvs were a good distraction. The coffee shop serves blends, butterscotch, lavender and vanilla flavors. Moreover, they also have baked goods, many of which are vegan or gluten-free. I ordered a hot 12oz Lavender Latte. It was brewed perfectly and tastes great; I really dig their coffee sleeves. Staff and service were amiable and fast, respectively. Seats (outdoor and indoor) look good. Atmosphere was very relaxing. Prices were competitive and economically fair. Street and metered parking available. Overall, I had a good experience and coffee. This will be my go to coffee shop.

    fun little VHS viewing room with a beautiful statue of Grier as Jackie Brown (sadly no VHS was in when we were there)

This cafe is located in a plaza with plenty of parking spots which was free, which is a plus for Ktown. I went on a weekend at around 2:30 pm and it as mildly busy; it was moderately loud as it seemed like a spot people go to and talk. I stayed there for roughly an hour and it wasn't busy by the time that I left. There were a decent amount of seats inside and limited spots outside. Noteworthy to mention that their A/C unit felt mild on that hot day. In the very back shelf, there was an option to have your drink from their selection of mugs; this is something I'd consider for next time. There was also an illustration of AI cats and dogs holding Onescape mugs; cats seem to be less favored lol. On one of their menus, I saw they had a corn latte so this convinced me to get it. While the service was quick, the drink fell short of my expectations. The corn flavor was a bit lacking in the drink. Overall, I'd probably be interested in coming back to try their nutty twist since it's a signature item. WiFi is also available so it makes for a decent place to get work done.

BUT what I've been absolutely obsessed with lately is their Jasmine Matcha. I constantly find myself coming back specifically for this drink. The balance between the jasmine and matcha is PERFECT. You get that floral, fragrant jasmine flavor while still being able to distinctly taste the matcha, and neither one overpowers the other. Parking is also surprisingly easy for LA! I've usually been able to find street parking nearby, so I personally wouldn't bother spending the extra money on valet. I will say this probably isn't the best place if you're looking for somewhere quiet to study. There are constantly people coming in and out and it can get pretty noisy and busy inside. I'd come here more to grab a drink and catch up with someone than to lock in for a study session. The Double Matcha may be the classic, but the Jasmine Matcha is what keeps me coming back. If you're a jasmine matcha person, GET THIS ONE!!

There's a small lot with valet, but spaces are limited. We drove around for a bit and eventually found street parking about a block away. We went on Labor Day, so it was understandably busy. Despite the heat, there was still a pretty long line. They do provide umbrellas for those waiting, but there definitely weren't enough for the number of people in line. You have to wait until someone goes inside and returns one. That said, the line moved surprisingly quickly, and our drinks came out within just a few minutes of ordering. Service was also friendly! I got the Double Matcha and it was super creamy and had an okay matcha flavor, but unfortunately left a mild weird, grainy aftertaste. I was pretty disappointed, especially after waiting in line. Honestly, I'm not sure I'd wait in line for this one again. My partner got the Double Hochija. The flavor was definitely there, but it also had that same strange grainy aftertaste, except it was way worse than the Double Matcha. It was supperrr sweet and became a bit overwhelming after a few sips. If you have a serious sweet tooth, you might love it, but I'd recommend adjusting the sweetness. Wish I read some of the reviews prior to ordering... Overall, I don't think Stagger has the best matcha or hochija but definitely is a cute spot for small groups of 2-4 to grab a drink and hang out. The quick service and friendly staff were definitely a plus! For me, the drinks weren't quite worth the wait, but I'd still come back to try something else.

It's a very cute and cozy coffee shop and there was no line when we arrived. The menu had a huge selection of different coffee and tea drinks and also a seasonal menu. The staff were very kind and patient and swiftly prepared the Vienna Latte and Hojicha Latte we ordered. The Vienna Latte is so visually stunning, the layers of white milk, brown espresso, thick white cream, brown cocoa powder and Biscoff layered on top of each other against the dark green logo was so aesthetic. Having a sip before mixing the Vienna latter was incredible, the sweet cream followed with the nutty strong espresso flavour then getting a refreshing splash of milk made a great combo with the Biscoff. I actually liked the drink less after its all mixed because it was too creamy for my taste. (I normally like my coffee black) My hojicha latte was great, but it was also too milky for me. So I went up and asked if it would taste good dirty, with an espresso shot in it, and the barista said yes. I ordered an espresso shot and instead of charging me full price, they only charged me the add on espresso shot for the drink! ($1.50 instead of $4) It was very kind of them since it was absolutely my mistake for not ordering the right drink in the first place.

The green sauce was very vinegary with a slightly spicy kick. The burrito itself was not bad as it had all the right ingredients. It took about 10 minutes for the kitchen to prepare this order. Mason Latte (Double shot Espresso, whole milk, homemade brown butter caramel, sea salt - iced $7.75): This drink had to be mixed and shaken first. A solid latte and not too sweet. The flavor was a tad light, but not bad. *** While no food or drink in particular made this place stand out among all other amazing coffee shops in Los Angeles, this is still a solid all-around coffee shop in my book. A big thumbs up on good interior vibe and easy parking.
