I always come to this south la cafe stand at the Kaiser Baldwin hills location after a doctors appointment. My go to is the deluxe bagel and a matcha... My daughter and I love it because it's so nutritious and delicious. I ordered a matcha latte with oat milk and 3 pumps of white chocolate mocha... this matcha has been the best I've had in a long time. The color, the texture and the taste were all perfect. If you ever order a matcha from there see if you can have a wonderful person named Monique to make it for you. She got the art of making matcha down packed!!! Just wanted to shout her out for making my day. The ambiance is always calm and quiet making it a perfect place to enjoy a coffee or in my case a perfect cup of matcha. read more

I love when local businesses support the community. South LA is definitely one of those places (see photos). The workers are incredibly helpful and kind. We have a runaway puppy on our hands and one of the workers generously offered to put our flyer in the kiosk window. Ample free parking due to be on Kaiser's property. read more

Convenient cafe when you have an appointment at Kaiser. The service was friendly and their americano was delicious! I drink my coffee black so I'm pretty picky and theirs is really, really good. I also thought they price their coffee well. Most cafe's charge and arm and a leg for coffee these days so I was happy to find South LA Cafe. There's no indoor seating unless you go inside the medical office building. But plenty of outdoor seating with umbrellas and plenty of free parking in the kaiser lot. read more

South LA Cafe - Located right outside the Kaiser office building - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Its in the medical office area so kinda hidden but you're in the right place don't worry. A small location compared to the Jefferson and Western ones, there's no inside area. I had no clue I was so close to a SLA Cafe. They texted me a birthday coupon so I got to try the banana pecan muffin which is freaking awesome. Side note it was nice to see them not wearing masks at this location, I guess cuz they're indoors. Not sure if that's a management decision at the other spots but it's pretty lame and confusing at this point. read more

The coffee is excellent, coffee cake perfect. But my order took 20 minutes & my daughter desert wasn't warmed up. I didn't bother to ask them to warm it up since i had waited 20 minutes. read more

Cute little coffee spot. Always thought it was apart of the Kaiser building, sort of like a hospital cafeteria. Boy was I wrong. It's a local spot that serves LA classics. I went with their most popular drink: The Western with some modifications - large, half sweet, 2% milk, and an extra espresso shot. Loved it 10/10. My drink ended up being closer to $9 I think due to the mods. Without those, the prices are actually pretty decent for LA. Cashier was friendly and informative on their menu and customizations. read more

Came to try the coffee cakes cause my friend lmk they were similar to the old LAUSD coffee cakes and they were yummy. I also enjoyed the Black Mamba Iced Tea. My only critique is the avocado spread that was used on our breakfast bagel sandwiches was kind of tart and to me was a missed opportunity-there is no meat on the sandwich to hide behind-so this made the guacamole the star of the sandwich and the quac used tasted store bought and cheap. If they used a handmade guacamole, they could change the game and elevate this breakfast sandwich a ton! read more

Usually go to the other location but this one is just as great as the rest. The best in the business. Keeps it local and excellent at all times. Avocado toast is bomb on the sourdough and as a bougie matcha man - their matcha is fantastic with some honey. Fantastic, kind and considerate service with a real mission. read more

This little cafe is so amazing!! I'm visiting from SF and was assigned to work at the hospital in front of the cafe. A friend of mine highly recommended their food and drinks. I love, love, love the avocado toast with salmon on sourdough bread!!! I'm totally hooked! The coffees are made well too. Simple great quality food and drinks and amazing service. Best part is that the prices are so reasonable. So far the best food and service I received all week. read more

South LA Cafe literally blew me away! My mom has been going here with a friend of hers and she wanted me to try it for myself. First off, I love the whole aesthetic of the place. I love the white and black decor, mixed with different hues of greens and stainless steel appliances. Everything just looked clean and peaceful. I really enjoyed the photo op wall and the Nipsey painting, as well as the merchandise they sell on site. The tables were spaced perfectly apart from each other and I loved how they have signs on the table that you can flip to "dirty" when you are done to let others know it needs to be cleaned before reseating. The employees were very nice and efficient with taking our order. Now on to the food and drinks! My mom gets the avocado toast every time she goes and although I'm not a fan of avocado, I couldn't help but notice how beautiful it looked. The sourdough toast was cooked to perfection, the avocado spread looked fresh, and the friend egg on top was the perfect balance. Not to mention that you get two pieces of toast for $5!! I mean where else are you getting GOOD avocado toast for that cheap? Nowhere! So yes if you love avocado, then this is a must try. I had a cheese danish and one of their freezes, which was a coffee flavored frozen drink and I wasn't disappointed. The danish was so good warmed and the freeze was a nice treat on a warm day. I will definitely be back to try other flavors. All-in-all, South LA Cafe is a lowkey hidden gem in the city and a nice place to link up with friends or loved ones to talk about life over small bites and coffee!

I will definitely be returning for your coffee even if it's out of my way. Thank you! read more

Beautiful cafe that offers a creative and tasty menu, just what the neighborhood needed.

Love love love the Horchata Latte, personalized with oat milk, 2 pumps vanilla, 2 pumps horchata, extra shot at South LA Cafe. I went back to get a second one within 10 minutes and doubled my old school coffee cake, added avocado toast (just $3 or 2 for $5), almond croissant, and a pound of their in-house roasted espresso. More than that, I love love love their mission in the community. They have continued their grocery give-away throughout Covid. They offer high quality products to our city. This second store is right on the Kaiser Permanente Baldwin Hills Campus. You'll soon be enjoying them at the Hollywood Bowl too! I fully support @southlacafe COFFEE. COMMUNITY. CONNECTION read more

Nice area however the guy with a beard and glasses ringing me up in the register was very rude talking to the other people not giving any attention to customer. They have like 5 people working in a tiny place all just messing around and not taking things serious. read more

Had to make a quick stop at Kaiser Permanente and was finally able to get a taste! I ordered the Horchata Latte with Oatmilk and a Croissant. The service was great, and the lady taking my order took the time to answer my questions about the drinks I had in mind. I chose the Horchata Latte just because it was different. I knew the taste of horchata and figured mixing that with espresso would be a nice, sweet pick me up on this rainy day. I must say that it was a nice experience! The strong taste of espresso was ever so sweetly complemented by the horchata syrup they added to the drink. I can truly understand the popularity, as this is like a warm cinnamon milk drink that happens to have some caffeine charge to it! The croissant was big and beautiful looking. It was warmed up, per my request, and nicely placed in a container to go. Though it was not as sweet and buttery as those that I usually have, it was still good. I honestly did not feel as guilty eating this one, like I do the other people's croissants, mainly because it was not as sweet and buttery tasting where you need to wipe your hands afterwards to make sure you do not get any grease stains on your clothes. Overall, this was a great experience, and there is a great chance that I will go back and not just when I have a doctor's appointment. From taking my order to the delivery of my items at the pickup window, the experience was positive, and the interactions were pleasant. On a side note, the prices are reasonable (compared to other big names coffee spots) and there is a squareup rewards system. Not sure what the point redemption options are, but I bet this place will allow you to stretch your dollars and cents a bit better without missing out on the goodness Java has to offer! read more

I had an unexpected surprise here at the Kaiser Permanente Martin Luther King, Jr campus. It was a HOT and I needed some refreshing. So I went to the South LA CAFE and had them make a cold brew with 2 pumps hazelnut some oatmilk, it was quite refreshing. While sitting the shade ran into this beautiful couple who were so wonderfully styled. I had to record them. I took one star off their rating because when I made the order the person did not stir the drink properly and all the good stuff with at the bottom and I almost missed it the yumminess. read more

If you want a review of their coffee...this is not the review for you. I came on a Wednesday morning because someone shared this new location on NextDoor. I've never been to the other location and was excited to have another option that opens at 7a. There aren't that many in this area. This is an outside location that is at the entrance of Kaiser Permanente. Enter that parking lot from Marlton or MLK, and you will see it. I ordered a matcha latte with almond milk and lavender, and it was devine! It was exactly what I needed. I did not try any of the quick bites because I had a taste for banana bread, and they didn't have any. All in all, I'm very glad to have them close by and their prices are very reasonable. read more

This couldn't have been more of a beautiful addition to the Kaiser Hospitals location. I seen it when it was trying to take off but not quite open yet. So it was a joy to visit Kaiser this afternoon and to see that it was up and running. I really enjoyed the customer service of the employees especially Jennifer. The area that this establishment is in, it can honestly challenge the patience of the employees that work there. I admired how Jennifer displayed extreme patients with one of the customers she was dealing with. People tend to be very snappy and annoyed and bring their problems to your establishment. But Jennifer was patient and accommodating. I decided to give their panadas a try and also their blended iced coffee. The panada was actually for my hubby. The iced coffee was terrific. I enjoyed the taste and it was very well blended. However, to my disappointment my husband had questions regarding the panada. I had explained to him that I had a choice between spinach, eggs and cheese or sausage, eggs and cheese. It still felt slightly early to us although the appointment was in the afternoon, so I figured, get him a panada in the breakfast category. When I explained to him that I went for the sausage egg and cheese he was a bit puzzled because his pinata was full of air. When he bit into it I took a look at it and I couldn't find ingredients. That was very disappointing seeing that it was quite pricey. I figured with the price the taste and portion should follow. So I hate to say this but I will not be purchasing another panada from that location. Regardless of the price and the air filled panadas I still felt the need to give this establishment four stars because the customer service, ice blended coffee was awesome and the location is very organized and clean. I feel with a couple of registered complaints, things can improve. All in all it's a nice addition to the area. I would definitely give it another try minus the panadas of course. read more

I hate having to leave this review. An injustice occurred today at the Crenshaw/king Kaiser location. Two of the south la workers were harassed this morning. A woman was bothered by the fact that the cashier said "we will be with you in a moment" and shut the window. She proceeded to complain say that that's not the way you treat costumers that's it's rude that she didn't care if the worker was going through something that's not the way to treat costumers and that the business is a black business and that it is black history month and she has the right to be treated right (I'm not sure how she wasn't) she continued to say that it's enough with the Latino community treating them bad that she didn't need a black business to do that. The workers were so professional and gave her information she needed to file her complain I've been coming to this location forever due to my job being 2 minutes away and when a worker tells me "we will be with you in a moment" and closes the window it means they would be with me in a moment. I just want to make sure that the owner reads this and has all the information read more

Staff was super friendly, patient and helpful. Service was fast. My mocha with oat milk tasted great and I loved all the available non-dairy milk options they have. Pricing is super reasonable too! We also got a jalapeño-cream cheese croissant and an almond croissant. Both super flavorful and absolutely delicious!! And although it was late in the afternoon, the pastry was still moist and not dried out like in many other cafés. If you're visiting Kaiser or are passing through the neighborhood- I definitely recommend stopping there. It is conveniently located right outside in-front the Kaiser building and next to the parking lot. read more

What a gem! South LA Cafe is located right in front of Kaiser, so you can use lots 1-3 to park. Perfect for a quick morning coffee run or mini break from work. The matcha latte was a bit watery, but all the others were unique and tasty. The lavender latte was sweet and flavorful, the horchata latte was a fun take on a classic, and I finished the chocolate freeze in a flash. Next time, I'm really looking forward to trying the pastries because they run out of some around noon. read more

Little gem in front of Kaiser Baldwin Hills Medical Offices. Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. I ordered an Iced Mocha Latte. It was very flavorful. Can taste the coffee and the chocolate, but it was not overly sweet. Enjoyed my coffee in the cool shaded tables next to the cafe. The have a large drink menu with different variations and varieties. The have a large pastry menu and even offer bagels, avocado toast, breakfast sandwiches, and even empanadas! I wasn't hungry so I didn't try the food choices this time. The area is very clean with lots of shaded tables to sit at. Even if you are not a Kaiser member, you can still park in the large lot and still visit the cafe. Highly recommended. read more
