The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf 333 South Alameda Street, Los Angeles, CA 90013

"BEST COFFEE SHOP EVER! Their drinks taste fabulous. Love this place 1000% more than Starbucks (more like Starburnt!)"

"If you want to sit in a coffee shop that features ample mall garage parking, sports very good wifi, and always seems to have plenty of space for you to work and plug in you electronics, this is the oasis for you. It's a bona fide urban venue, so expect to mix and mingle with lots of downtowners, from hipsters, to young families, to the unhoused. I personally love the diversity of people I observe there. NOTE: while safe and convenient, parking gets pricey once you've passed the first 2 hours - with validation."

"Beautiful place..You know, just thinking out loud. I had never "done the do" in the restroom with an Asian chick, until I came here, And to top it all off, we got caught in the act, and the workers were so cool and understanding, that each worker called up a friend and got them to come let me service them do. And the biggest blessing was they paid me."

"Nice and quiet coffee spot. We went in late morning and there were no lines and it wasn't crowded. Drinks were tasty and there were some variety for snacks. Great space to chill and have a coffee!"

"Horrible experience… I was next in line to place my order then a man walked in went in line behind me. The cashier guy with the pink hair didn’t take my order, he stopped and asked the man behind me; You’re ordering iced coffee right? The man behind me said yes. The cashier didn’t take my order and decided to make the mans iced coffee instead while I waited until the lady cashier came and took my order. Why I was waiting the guy with the pink beanies handed the iced coffee to the man and then asked if there’s anything else that he can get him. The man then said ice water. I felt ignored and got really upset. I wanted to tell the guy with the pink beanies that I was the next customer in line not the man behind me. That was very rude. The woman who took my order was nice enough to step in and took my order. I don’t think what this cashier did was ok at all. Lucky I don’t do my grocery shopping there often."
