Crema's Take
“ChapMayan serves authentic Guatemalan coffee and pastries that transport you straight to a café in Guatemala City—think traditional drinks paired with almond croissants and rellenitos that justify the drive from neighboring cities. The space itself is meticulously decorated with genuine attention to detail, making it feel less like a Downey coffee shop and more like a cultural experience, and regulars keep coming back because nothing on the menu disappoints. It's small and parking can be tight on weekends, but the combination of excellent coffee, standout pastries, and that unmistakable Guatemalan warmth makes it absolutely worth planning a visit around.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Family friendly.

Drove over from Long Beach to support this coffee shop we saw online. Super cute and nicely decorated. Small coffee shop so parking is probably hard to find on the weekends, FYI. The coffee was good, I got the Mayan Latte which to me seems to be a Spanish latte. It was delicious…
