Cafe de Leche
5000 York Blvd, Los Angeles, CA
Crema's Take
“Café de Leche strikes that sweet spot between a serious coffee destination and a relaxed neighborhood hangout, where knowledgeable baristas craft distinctive drinks like the Latte Campesino and warming Mexican mocha with a playful approach to flavor combinations. The bright, airy space with generous seating and natural light makes it equally suited for settling in with a book or meeting a friend, though fair warning if you're planning to work—there's no wifi to anchor you there all afternoon. Their creativity shines in signature drinks that balance traditional espresso craftsmanship with unexpected touches like star anise and orange peel, though their strawberry matcha is still a work in progress.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with creative signature drinks, with a pour-over program. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings.

Very knowledgeable and friendly staff/baristas. I had the mexi mocha w/spices but I recommend having it without. Latte Campesino was best served hot, personally. All around great and I recommend 👍
If you’re looking for a chill spot to get your caffeine fix, this place is it. Tons of seating and loads of natural light make it perfect for getting some work done or just hanging out. The coffee is seriously good, and their huge butter croissants are out of this world. Plus,…
