This is my new favorite coffee spot! I got the Coco Loco Latte and it was the best thing Ive ever tasted πŸ€ͺ I bought one when I got there, sat and drank it, then ordered one to go. So good!

I am not a coffee lover, I think it tastes gross, perhaps smells good but thats it. But the lavender latte was amazing! Im sensitive to caffeine so I most typically get the lavender iced tea. Next time I get a coffee, it will be the horchata latte from here. I always drop by when Im in the area.

Me and my friend we love boba very much, so every time we know a new place I have to try. Went there last week, I ordered the uji matcha milk tea with boba, of course. I LOVE their boba, its smaller than usual boba, but its very chewy, and a very good level of sweetness. This place will be in my pocket place for sure!!!

Best horchata latte ever. Location is fun too, it’s a weird setup where there is a basement style room in the cafe but it’s very clean and corner neighborhood coffee shop vibe-y.

The Rice and Beans Frappe they serve is to die for. I dont think Ive genuinely felt happy by just drinking something until I had this. The Tres Leches Muffin was warm and moist and I found it paired well with the cold frappe despite both being very sweet. Ill definitely come here again if I travel to LA in the future.

Customer service is average at best idk if they expect a tip with a whatever attitude just bcs, but to me a simple greeting will suffice even if they dont mean it, am not an everyday customer once every two months at best just glad I dont stop by often! Hope management has an international talk with their staff regarding attitude, eyes rolling and tone whenever serving patrons that choose to bring our business to your business...

It is so annoying how they don’t have a set time or an exact time that they stop using the expresso machine, they close at 10 pm but usually at 9:30 don’t want to serve expresso drinks anymore

Review β„–25

Was in the neighborhood and decided to get a couple drinks. I got their Beans and rice Frappe and the wifey got their Horchata Cappuccino iced. Both flavorful types of iced coffees.The Beans and rice frappe has grounded coffee beans in the mix if you are into that kinda thing.Clean cafΓ© and great customer service practicing social distancing. They also have a few random food items for sale on the tables near the register as if it were a convenience store.Drink up and enjoy the many different flavors they have to offer.

Tierra Mia Coffee is a stylish latin coffee shop and pastry located at N. Alvarado street in Echo Park section of LA. They have other locations throughout Los Angeles County. Interior atmosphere was relaxing and inviting; space was smaller compared to its other location, however. Interior design was cool with picture frames hanging all over their beige wall. I came here on an early Monday morning to grab a coffee. I ordered a medium size hot brewed coffee and guava pastry. They were perfectly made to satisfy my palate. Staff was amiable, competent, followed healthy protocol and professional. Prices were fair and competitive. Street metered parking only. Overall, I had a wonderful order experience and enjoyed my coffee/pastry. Therefore, I highly recommend this latin coffee shop.

Great place with one of a kind pastries and coffee drinks. All have a twist of our Latino culture in their drinks, such as horchata lattes, their rice and beans ice blend to name a few. My go to drink is their iced Horchata latte with an extra shot.

Customer service fell a little short. No menus except for when you get to the register, so I wasnt ready with my order when I approached the cashier. She was a little demanding in the way she asked me what I would be ordering as if I was disrupting some assembly line style ordering system. Kinda hard for a 1st timer to know flavors and prices and styles if u only have 5 seconds to look over a whole menu. Every coffee shop has their own unique nomenclature for their coffees and drinks and can be overwhelming for a 1st timer, so I kept it simple and ended up with a $4 regular coffee and a $5 vanilla latte. Both were good after the proper amount of sweetener and cream were added so they made up slightly for the sub par customer service. All in all, coffee seemed pricey, but satisfying and I would drink coffee from there again, but I wont go in and get it. I would recommend they add menus to their walls or hand railing so that customers can have their order ready without the pressure of an overly eager cashier and 10 people behind you line.

Update: came back and service was terrible. I complained about the rice and beans coffee been nasty not tasting like coffee and all creamer. They gave us terrible looks and unapologetic. The manager a girl didnt even say sorry July 6, 2018 @ 9:30pm. This is disappointing. All the little kids working with her with her clowns talking smack in the back room. Who knows what they did to our drinks.

Im not from the LA area Im from the Central valley but I took a trip to la recently and one of the girls was telling me about this coffee shop so we went on a mission to find it. It was located in a place that you would never expect. A little hole-in-the-wall that it seems you would only hear of by word of mouth. A very nice little place. It was well worth driving around and looking for. I will definitely go back when Im in the area again!

Its a really cute place, if you go to the church nearby its a good pit stop. It has the atmosphere of a 90s coffee shop and has a lot a cool silverware. You can get all kinds of drinks here and they have croissants and more little foods. The seating arrangement is normal but you can sit right in front of the windows if you want. If you want to charge your phone or tablet they dont block off the charge ports so feel free to :>

This place is great. Always busy and they have oat milk and an iced oat milk latte is a must when I come here. The only part that is a bit of a pain is the parking hard to find. There is a garage a block away but always super full. Its also a bit overpriced but what good coffee shop isnt.

I only order the horchata ( hot and ice blended) and it is delicious! Reason for the 4 stars is because sometimes the drinks are inconsistent and turn out too liquidy or frothy.
