After a late night out, the hubs and I needed something reasonably close and yummy for breakfast. We were staying at the Hotel Per La so I sent my hubs to grab and our food to bring it back to our hotel room. My breakfast burrito was good. My husband's breakfast sandwich was better so halfway through we traded. Service was great. Ambiance was nice. read more

I'll be honest here, I kind of wanted to hate this place ever since I almost went a few months back but changed my mind when I saw six people wearing fedoras at a table and wanted nothing to do with that, but here we are, months later giving this place another real shot. My wife and I stopped here a few weekends back for lunch and I was pleasantly surprised with just how much I enjoyed the food. The ambiance here is pretty generic, white and bright and very copy and paste of a lot of places popping up recently. The staff was super friendly while taking our orders and dropping the food off, which is always appreciated. I ended up ordering the Santo's Turkey Melt which is smoked turkey, grilled onions, Swiss cheese, and chipotle aioli served on sourdough with a side of french fries. The sandwich was really good and the same can be said for the french fries and I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of fries given, so thumbs up to that. I forgot what the food costs so I visited the website and for some reason they don't think it's important to put that online, which is pretty darn stupid if you ask me. Overall, I didn't have a bad experience at Sandcouch Cafe and I would visit again in the future thanks to it's convenient location. The food was solid and the staff was friendly, and that's really all I need when ordering a sandwich. read more

Sandcouch Cafe - Santo's Turkey Melt. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

it's a very cute venue with very nice Instagram pictures, although some section of the place looked kinda odd with the positioning plants. It was terrible that today I saw a sign of the restroom cannot be used, which is really outrageous. But this review is just on the food. And for that, it is really five star. It was very well made for the eye and the taste. Service is very friendly and fast and they'll bring your food out to you. There is a nice condiment area so you can help yourself to anything. The seating area is very comfortable and I see some people sitting there pretty much for hours working. It's a very peaceful spot and good food & coffee. What more can you ask for in downtown. It's right across a macaroon place so I can see it doing really well. read more

I was looking for a place to have lunch in DTLA and came across Sandcouch Cafe. First impression was there were lots of people dining here and almost every table was taken and a bit loud too. I walked to the counter to place my order with the friendly lady at the order counter. I ordered a blueberry matcha and a prosciutto with arugula and fig jam. I looked around to see where I could grab a seat but only found a seat at the counter bar area. I went to sit down and shortly after my matcha was ready. Their menu said they buy their matcha from Japan so you know you are getting quality matcha. It was delicious. About 7 minutes later my sandwich was ready and a nice gentleman brought it to me. I was pleasantly surprised after my first bite. The bread tasted like it was made in house and super soft and fresh. All of the indents paired really well together and tasted so good. The fig jam gave the sandwich a little sweetness but not overly sweet. I will definitely come back and try other items from their menu when I'm in the area. read more

What an absolutely amazing place to stumble upon! I've been three times in the past two days. So why four stars and not five? Yikes, when you add milk to the tea, it becomes an $8.15 tea. That's... a bit much. I'll pay for quality loose leaf, but.. almost a tenner? Have also come for lunch; hubby had one of the avocado breakfast burritos and devoured it so quickly. I opted for the Club wrap - the bacon had an amazing flavor to it, which really made the wrap pop (a little bit of spice). The decor is super cute and the overall restaurant is very clean. High marks for that. Don't come if you're on a budget, but if you're OK with splurging a bit, I highly recommend! 2026: 16/100 read more

Clean, warm, and cozy space. The baked goods are well presented and inviting. So why 1 star? Opening a restaurant in Los Angeles isn't easy--but doing it without a properly dialed-in kitchen is even harder. Add a poorly executed menu, and the results show. Take a look at my photo of the breakfast burrito: missing bacon and egg. I opened what was supposed to be a bacon burrito to add salsa (which, to be fair, was very good) and found lazily prepared fillings and what tasted like leftover bacon from the day before. I'm being tough because of the location--7th and Grand is prime real estate. Being busy wiping tables doesn't justify 4-5 star reviews if the food isn't there. This place needs someone to step in and help with the kitchen and flavor profiles, because right now they're just not working. Good luck--I'll be back, and I hope it improves. read more

Best matcha in DTLA! The blueberry matcha is very unique & adds a subtle fruit taste. I finally tried their machaca burrito during my visit & I highly recommend it. The flavors were great & the texture was perfect. I'm a regular & customer service is always top notch. You may sometimes see the owners working in the cafe too, making sure their employees continue to provide great service. The ambiance in the cafe itself is very welcoming & clean. Great place to do some studying if bringing your laptop. Overall you should definitely give this place a try if you're in DTLA! read more

I work in Downtown and often stop by for lunch. I don't usually leave reviews, but this spot deserves one. Amazing matcha -- smooth, earthy, and not overly sweet.

Sandcouch is a cute little cafe in downtown L.A. The space is bright and inviting with plenty of places to sit and enjoy your order: Their breakfast items were delightful, so much so that I ordered food there two days in a row when staying in the area. They have a full coffee bar, and fresh baked goods available as well. Definitely worth a visit! read more

Ambiance: it's a spacious and trendy cafe place, high ceilings and comfortable seats, good place for quick bites Service: the cashier was nice and efficient, but either their manager or owner seems rude, when I found rotten leaves in their food and brought to his attention as a courtesy after I'm done eating and about to leave, he kept denying and saying it's not rotten, well you can't wake a person who is pretending to be asleep, overall it would have been a four star place, but one star off for ingredients not fresh, and another star off for the unprofessional attitude Food: plenty choices for breakfast and lunch, also there's pasty and coffee menu Grilled Pastrami Sandwich on Sourdough - ** Black Navel Pastrami, Swiss Cheese, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Sourdough, side of arugula salad, the pastrami meat was tasty although a bit salty, the lettuce was't fresh, so disappointing, obviously rotten from photos Price: moderate portions and slightly overpriced for the food quality, although it's understandable for downtown location read more

Decided to give this cafe a visit after walking past it multiple times. Decided to order their machaca breakfast burrito and it was so freakin good. Lots of meat, melted cheese, and crispy tator tots inside. Comes with a side of delicious salsa. Service was excellent and loved the decor and vibe inside the restaurant. Pro tip: Sit by the window if you love to people watch. Will definitely come back! read more

Cute, bright, and airy cafe serving breakfast and lunch. The bacon breakfast burrito was tasty. Cashier was friendly. She told me a few things people liked such as mortadella sandwich & other items. Great addition to Downtown; if you come on a Saturday, make sure to go stop by the mini South Park farmers market down the street. The only thing I can think of is the seating could be more comfortable, like maybe add cushions? I like the music playing in the background which wasn't too loud. read more

It's a night and day difference with how they've transformed the space from the previous tenant. The ambience is welcoming, extremely bright, clean and serene. The staff is super pleasant and the food all looks remarkable and taste excellent. Their menu is definitely geared towards breakfast and brunch options (although it still heavily leans towards breakfast type foods), and they close a little earlier in the afternoon around 4pm. It's downtown LA, so if you're driving here, there's plenty of paid parking nearby but if you're in the area, you should easily be able to take public transit or walk a couple blocks. read more

I come to this place every morning and usually spend over $70, so I'm a regular customer. The food is good, which is why I keep coming back. Unfortunately, the customer service has been very disappointing, especially from one employee named Vanessa. This is not the first time she has been rude. This most recent visit, she slammed the pen down and threw the receipt on the counter instead of handing them to me. On previous visits, she has rolled her eyes and appeared very annoyed. She often looks unhappy, tired, and like she doesn't want to be there, which really affects the experience. I understand everyone has bad days, but consistent rude behavior toward customers is not acceptable, especially for regulars. I hope management addresses this because the food is good, but the customer service needs serious improvement. read more

Just under a year since SOUNDCOUCH first opened and on my first time here, I like the design (ie eat-with-a-view), clean vibes, appetizing menu etc. Nice and helpful staff but I have to say, the grilled chicken sandwich I ordered for $18? A letdown in most every way. Stiffish bread, too sweet grilled onion bacon jam, overcooked chicken that might've been frozen as it's chewy, my green salad side w honey-mustard dressing turned out to be nothing, merely arugula and drizzled over in lemony olive oil... After tax and tip, I dropped close to $25 here. Very disappointing. read more

My review is only for their coffee. The place is not too big but with enough space to eat and/or have your coffee. They also have a small outdoor seating area which looks cozy and comfortable. I ordered an iced honey vanilla latte. Really good overall, only thing I can say is it was a little too sweet for my taste but I'm sure they can adjust next time I order. My brief interaction with staff was pleasant so I'd say the service is good too. I observed one of the staff possibly the owner or manager check on orders for other customers which I thought was nice. read more

Stopped by Sandcouch Cafe early in the morning to try something new, and I'm so glad I did! I ordered a small honey vanilla latte with whole milk, and it was perfect--not too sweet, just right. This café is located downtown, right on the corner, so it's easy to find. They also serve breakfast and lunch, which is great if you're looking for more than just coffee. I've noticed a lot of people come here to get work done in the afternoons, so it definitely has a nice, relaxed vibe. If you're looking to switch things up from your usual Starbucks or Dunkin', I'd definitely recommend checking this place out. I'll be back for sure! read more

Stumbled upon this new coffee shop and cafe this morning after missing my stop on the metro. I walked in to take a look and ended up leaving with an americano and a blueberry lemon scone. Both were better quality than most coffeeshops in DTLA. The ambience is very inviting. I would like to come back for lunch or breakfast in the near future. read more

I've had mixed experiences. Some of their food and drinks are stellar and others are only OK. The scone my partner got for our pastry date was too dry for my taste. But my cinnamon roll was impeccable! The lamination and folds were perfect and the flavor was ideal. The salad I've had from a previous order was mediocre. But my partners love the mortadella sandwich. The space itself is large and open with a great corner location. But the high ceilings and all the sharp edges and clean surfaces make it kind of loud (bad for acoustics), so I recommend noise-cancelling headphones if you're there to focus on work. The team at the counter is always lovely. read more

It was super busy when I came in but everyone was nice and friendly. Food is typically pretty healthy but there's some baked goods to choose from. I was in and out but will sit down to eat next time I'm here. It's a cute new addition to the area and am excited to see something different. read more

Just discovered my new go-to spot for a slow weekend morning. The airy, sunlit interiors make it feel like a hidden retreat in the middle of Downtown LA. I ordered their veggie omelette (look at that color!) loaded with fresh bell peppers, onions, and a generous sprinkle of cilantro on top -- served with hearty slices of multigrain toast. Simple, wholesome, but full of flavor. Coffee? Smooth and balanced. Staff? Super friendly without being overbearing. The whole place has that "Instagrammable but still cozy" energy that makes you want to linger with your laptop or catch up with friends. If you're into fresh, unfussy brunch with a little LA chic, Sandcouch Café is definitely worth a stop. #DTLAeats #SandcouchCafe #BrunchGoals read more

There was plenty of seating when we arrived, and the staff was actively cleaning tables, which I appreciated. I'd definitely come back! read more

The food and drinks are both incredible too, which is rare for a cafe to do both so well. And did I mention that the place also has WIFI, outlets, and plenty of seating?! My favorites are the raspberry matcha and the salmon avocado toast. (The regular latte is also great!)

My go to spot!! The food is always top-tier. My go-to order is the chicken pesto omelet with sourdough toast (pictured) and it's unreal every single time. It's my favorite thing on the menu, but honestly everything I've tried--or seen come out--looks amazing. The ambiance feels clean, cozy, and kind of luxurious without trying too hard. It's the perfect spot to slow down and actually enjoy your morning. The service is over-the-top good. Everyone is friendly, remembers you, and makes you feel genuinely welcome. I get the chai vanilla tea almost every day, and this place has become part of my daily routine. I come here so often that I'm low-key afraid to try other cafes because I don't want to be disappointed. If you're looking for a go to cafe in LA, this is it for sure. read more

Came here during a trip to LA. Ordered the smoked salmon and avocado toast, which was colorful, large, and tasty. I liked the balance of the different flavors and textures, from the roasted tomato to the balsamic vinegar to the cream cheese, it all mixed very well. The service was quite slow. I waited longer than expected for this toast to arrive to my table. I tried some of my dining partners' bagel sandwiches, and they were all excellent. The ambiance is chic modern cafe. The restrooms situation was less than ideal: both had "Out of Order" signs, but when we asked, an employee said that one of them was working, if you used a code from your receipt. read more
