He just felt he was drinking straight horchata and no coffee and said it was a little too sweet. I got the vanilla iced latte with oat-milk, cold foam, and an extra shot and I gave it a 3/10. It was wayy too watery. Cold foam was good but the drink just tasted very watered down even with the extra shot I added. One a positive note, I would say the baristas were very nice and it was quick!

I wouldn't recommend adding syrup or cold foam either because it doesn't improve it at all. It honestly tasted like it was coming from a machine rather than being properly whisked, which is kind of the bare minimum for a good matcha. The coffee itself is also very basic nothing special or worth going out of your way for. Overall, not a spot I'd come back to.

Stopping by this Coffee Bean has become the highlight of my morning, all thanks to Liz ,It is rare to encounter someone who radiates such genuine warmth and positivity, especially during the early morning rush.She doesn't just take an order; she creates a moment of connection. Her attention to detail is incredible--my drink is consistently handcrafted to perfection--but it's her kind spirit and vibrant energy that truly set her apart. Even when the line is long, she handles every guest with a graceful patience and a smile that feels completely authentic.It's clear she takes immense pride in her work and cares about the community she serves. She turns a simple caffeine fix into a beautiful start to the day. Coffee Bean is truly lucky to have such a gem on their team!" read more

What's with the mid day shift worker being such a prick. I understand that your tip jar isn't full, I understand that you expect me to give you a couple of quarters (or even a doller, I've I wanna make it rain) for your fake smile, but you'll understand when I don't because of you lack of people skills and snooty attitude. AND THEY BLENDED MY (AND FIANCE'S) BLACK FOREST WAY TO DAMN MUCH! So two stars for: 1. F'd up my order. 2. Person who helped me acted as if I was bugging her. 3. When someone says thank you, at least acknowlege it, if you want you f*$@ing tip. Ill probuably go back, just because its the only one in Downey. read more

After seeing it so many times, I finally decided to give it a try. I ordered the matcha with banana cold foam and was really excited to see how the flavors would come together. Unfortunately, the drink ended up tasting almost entirely like banana. While the drink had the nice green color you'd expect from matcha, I couldn't really taste the matcha itself. I was hoping for that distinct earthy, slightly sweet ceremonial matcha flavor, but it seemed to get completely overpowered by the cold foam. Overall, it wasn't quite the experience I was hoping for, especially given the emphasis on ceremonial matcha. I may not return for this particular drink, but I hope they consider adjusting the balance of flavors because the idea has a lot of potential.

The menu clearly lists it as $7.95 + $1 for a triple-shot concentrate. When I got to the register, I was told it was $12.50 because of a coffee concentrate shortage. If the price had changed, that information should have been disclosed over the phone before I made the drive. I understand shortages happen, but if your prices have changed, update the menu. Advertising one price and charging a significantly higher one without any notice is frustrating and feels misleading. Customers shouldn't have to find out after they've already driven there and are ready to order. To make matters worse, Natalie was sarcastic and rude instead of trying to address the situation professionally. Good customer service goes a long way, especially when there's already confusion about pricing. I've always enjoyed Lee's coffee, but this experience was extremely disappointing. Please either honor the posted price or clearly post a notice so customers know what to expect before ordering. UPDATE: After leaving, I went back inside to ask for the manager's name and planned to purchase the coffee at the $12.50 price so I could provide the receipt to corporate along with a photo of the menu. Nathalie refused to give me the manager's name. She then told me she could no longer sell me the coffee because I was right and they needed to change the prices. If the posted price was incorrect, it should have been corrected before customers were quoted and charged a different amount. Refusing to provide the manager's name and then refusing the sale after acknowledging the pricing issue only made the situation worse.

This Lee's location finally had the cookie butter coffee in stock -- so of course I had to try it!…read more Overall, I enjoyed it, but I'd say it's more of a pleasant twist than a game changer. It's the same Vietnamese coffee we all know and love, topped with a cookie butter cold foam and a light dusting of lotus cookie crumbs. My only wish? More crumbs! The coffee itself doesn't seem to have any added flavoring beyond the classic Vietnamese brew, so that first sip tastes nearly identical to the original. To really get the cookie butter experience, you'll want to stir that foam in well, once you do, it does add a nice flavor boost. Still, nothing that'll blow your mind. That said, I'd absolutely order it again, because let's be honest, Vietnamese coffee is a win no matter what. As for the location, it's decent. The tables could use some attention, and there was a bit of an unpleasant smell, though to be fair, there's a noticeable homeless population in the area outside, which may have been a factor. On the bright side, the staff was friendly and efficient. I ordered a regular size cookie crumble coffee for $6.99 and had it in hand within five minutes. Can't complain about that!
