    Great light to medium roast options and flat white and wide selection of pour overs. They sell Sweet Bloom and idle hands coffee bags too.

    Black sesame cream cold brew
    Halley K.

    Needed a caffeine pick me up after an event downtown and stumbled upon this great space! The barista was so friendly and patient offering great recommendations. I ordered a cold brew with black sesame cream top and it was amazing! The black sesame flavor really came through and wasn't overly sweet. The cold brew was also delicious with a strong flavor. Inside has plenty of seating and could be a great option for a coffee shop work day. I would definitely recommend if you're in the area.

    Really good matcha. You can tell it is great quality. Service is good, they're very kind. also, it is a nice looking shop. Great place to work.

    I stopped by this cafe recently on my way downtown and was very surprised at the cleanliness and the service. The service is exceptional, the employees and baristas are super nice and knowledgeable. I tried the black sesame latte and it was sooooo good. Not sweet, very foamy and tasty, would definitely come again for that latte. If you're in the area and looking for a quiet place to study or wfh, this is the place. A++ recommend.

    Cute interior and seating, Frida approves lol

    Friendly staff and great specialty lattes! The black sesame is what drew me in. Minimal and clean interior with a large communal table for working should one need. A great location tucked in the corner between grand and Wilshire. Def worth stopping by for those who are feeling adventurous in trying a new coffee spot (: I love that they are doggo friendly with a welcome treat near the entry area. That def will motivate me to come back for the sake of my doggie baby xD Friday very much enjoyed her jerky thanks Soro team lol I will say for being 1 sized cups only. I think it's only fair if they used the medium grande cups Starbucks uses. Right now it's the small tall size. Just a note on that!

    What a truly wonderful coffee shop in the middle of DTLA. The pictures taken here are stunning and they don't do justice to the space of this location. Parking sucks cause it's downtown but if you get past that, this is a top 3 coffee spot in Los Angeles. The coffee served, Idle Hands Colombia, was exceptional. Being honest was probably the best cup of coffee I've this year. Wished it came in a larger size, and I'm rarely in this area for coffee but will definitely need to come back to try other items on the menu. One of the easiest 5 star reviews I've written this year.

    First time at Soro Coffee and ordered the Soro latte. It had an interesting color gradient that caught my eye. There's blue syrup on the bottom, espresso + milk, matcha foam, and a piece of dried orange on top. It was an interesting combo that worked and tasted very refreshing on a hot day! Cafe is spacious, clean, and minimalist. I definitely want to come back and try other specialty drinks.

    I've seen TikToks raving about Soro, and I happened to be in the area to transfer trains and also had to hop on a few Zoom meetings ... the perfect opportunity to try out this place! WHAT I ORDERED: Black sesame cold brew THE DRINK: The cold brew was pretty standard and was pretty smooth. I was definitely impressed by the flavor of the sesame cream - not too overpowering yet flavorful and fragrant. I do wish the cream was a bit thicker, but it makes sense given that it usually comes on top of the latte rather than a cold brew. SERVICE: Great! They answered my questions about the menu. VIBES: Good place to get work done! Here's my work-from-coffee-shop checklist: * OUTLETS: Yes, good amount of outlets throughout! * WIFI/INTERNET: Yes, fast * BATHROOMS: Yes, clean * WATER: You can ask for free water * VOLUME: Not too loud * SEATING AVAILABILITY: Abundance of seats, and different types of seats too! I sat at the seats by the window but I saw there was also a communal table. There were some private nook type of rooms but I'm not sure if those were available for customers to use? * LAPTOP FRIENDLINESS: No restrictions BOTTOM LINE: Will probably be a go-to now for when I'm downtown and need to do work! I'll need to try the matcha that people were raving about next time.

    The counter... nice and clean!

    In the mood for an espresso tonic, I found myself at Soro Coffee. So glad I stopped in as I found a clean, friendly, spacious place with delicious coffee that did not disappoint. For $6, I got to enjoy some icy, citrus flavored goodness on a warm day. If you're the person who loves to bring your laptop while you caffeinate, this is your place! Lots of tables and open space to work and sip, on a busy corner made to people-watch. I'll definitely be back! Welcome to the neighborhood Soro!

    Yuzu matcha latte
    Miranda M.

    Popped in on a Monday morning in the office. This is a perfect location if you work nearby. It is a large space and looks like it would be easy to get some work/studying done here. What really stood out was the service, the man up front was so kind and welcoming. He went through their different signature drinks. I ordered the Yuzu matcha iced with oat milk. Alternative milks are an extra $1 which is pretty standard. The matcha was $9 which felt a bit on the high end and the cup wasn't all too large. However my drink was phenomenal. They put a generous amount of yuzu fruit/rinds into the matcha for flavoring. The worker up front was whisking the matcha in front of you. It wasn't too sweet with the citrus really complimenting that matcha flavor. Although my drink was $10 with tip, I would absolutely come back for the yuzu matcha as a treat yourself drink.

    Cold brew w matcha foam + matcha latte
    Alvin H.

    This coffee spot is the perfect location to sit down, get a little coffee, relax, and get some work done as there's plenty of seating in half the shop. The matcha latte was definitely the star of the show, not grainy whatsoever and the perfect sweetness. The cold brew with foam was, as expected, less sweet but just as refreshing. I actually prefer this locations cold brew + matcha foam compared to others that I've had because you still get that cold brew taste. The sweetness from the matcha foam doesn't overpower the bevvy at all. The cashiers were all very friendly and welcoming.

    Working or studying spot vibes for sure! Huge space, and the corner at the back even complemented with TV, which could function as screen. This made it perfect pick for either solo guest or group. The only downside was certainly parking situation, which you might have expected given it's at downtown. The lady behind the order counter, who's also the barista, was super nice. Really appreciated her for helping me being more decisive when placing my order (lol) as I was initially torn between their Soro Latte and any Matcha drinks. She convinced me to go with the prior as she said it's her favorite. I got it for to-go just because finding parking seemed impossible even after few rounds trying! This drink was simply a beauty with those layers of colors. It featured that matcha espresso combo with matcha cream top and the sweetener was basically the blue syrup at the bottom. I might fancy the coffee to be slightly stronger, but it's overall good! Even the matcha flavor stood out despite just being in the cream. Not sure what the blue syrup made of, but the dose in this cup certainly suited those who fancied anything not overly sweet.

    Ceremonial grade matcha

    Discovered a new local coffee shop on my morning walk. Located on the corner of wilshire and grand is this charming family run coffee shop serving up some really good coffee + matcha. The space is roomy with plenty of seating, which is always a win in this area. I ordered their classic matcha latte w/ oat milk and loved the quality of the matcha they use. I asked for a little simple syrup and it came out perfect and exactly how I like it. A solid 9/10. It was lovely meeting the owners, Jeanie and her husband Rock(I really hope I'm spelling that right). If you're a local or in the area I highly recommend checking them out. A great addition to DTLA.

Seating is limited, though they do offer a few outdoor tables and a bench inside while you wait for your drinks. The service was great. The employees were friendly, welcoming, and the overall atmosphere was relaxed and enjoyable. As for the coffee, it unfortunately wasn't my favorite. I tried the Cloud Latte and found it a bit too thick, lacking the smoothness and flavor I was hoping for. I also tried the Cinnamon Cloud, which was smoother but still tasted fairly bitter to me. Coffee preferences are subjective, of course, but the flavor profile just didn't quite hit the mark for me. That said, I enjoyed everything else about the experience and would be willing to come back and try a few different drinks from the menu. The service and ambiance were definitely highlights of the visit.

The pictures don't lie. It's got that clean, modern coffee shop aesthetic, but a few quirky touches keep it from feeling like every other minimalist café. There's a photo booth in the back (which I assume explains the name) and a display of sunglasses that I never quite figured out. Also, no bathroom code. Always appreciated. Neither of us usually orders einspanners, but my wife got the vanilla and I ordered the mocha, both iced with oat milk. They were excellent. Creamy and rich and the coffee underneath was tasty even before mixing in the cream. The pastries looked beautiful and artful, although I was hoping for something simple like an almond croissant. The vibe outside on the patio was great. Lots of people working on laptops, plenty of room to settle in, and it felt more like a co-working space than a typical coffee shop.

I stumbled across their Yelp page when I was visiting from out of town and checked the Instagram for their hours on a Saturday afternoon and was happy to see they were open! I am a sucker for pop-up coffee shop/cart concepts so I had to check it out. The pop-up is easy to find, it's outside facing into the parking lot, and they had a cute A-frame sign out by the street side. There was no line, and I ordered and sat down at one of the tables out front. The service was so warm, and I believe the shop is owned and operated by one man on his own! He was an absolute delight to meet, and he brought my matcha latte to me at the table when it was prepared. He suggested I get the cream top on it, and boy was that the perfect recommendation. I would say I'm a little bit of a matcha fiend... I think I got a matcha latte at 3 different places this day... and this one far surpassed the others. I think it was one of the best matcha lattes I have ever drank to-date. It was perfectly green, the matcha quality was phenomenal, both taste and look-wise. The texture was just right, perfectly creamy with barely any grittiness. The cream top only added to the drink, and didn't take away from the matcha flavor at all, which I feel like has happened at other places for me. I'm dreaming of this matcha latte days later, and need to go back to Kokoro No Coffee as soon as I am in town again. This was a spectacular find, and I hope this spot gets all the love it deserves! There is truly nothing like a great business ran by a great person and you can tell there's so much intention put into this concept. Highly, highly recommend and I could not sing praises more!

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 shot added much depth and flavour to the hojicha latte I was craving. Thanks for the wonderful service. I'm definitely coming back to try their other specialty drinks.
