Bums Coffee
9302 Firestone Blvd, Downey, CA
Crema's Take
“Bums Coffee has filled a real gap in Downey's coffee scene with genuinely skilled espresso work and creative specialty drinks that go beyond the usual chain offerings—their lattes are consistently praised, and they're equally confident with matcha and cold brew. The team here moves with purpose, turning out beautiful drinks fast while keeping the vibe relaxed and welcoming, and they've clearly thought through details like milk alternatives and a solid pastry selection to make every visit feel considered.”

Downey is starved for local coffee spots that aren’t chains so I was super stoked when I found out this place had opened and was eager to give them a try. That was about a month ago and I’ve already been here several times so needless to say they won me over quickly! I’ve been ordering the Spanish latte which is delicious, but most recently decided to try the maple cinnamon latte and it is also very good. If I had to give some notes I will admit seeing more decor in the space would be very welcome, but given the short length of time they’ve been open it’s not a big deal. Plus they’ve been friendly every visit so they deliver where it counts and I’ll gladly continue coming back. Seating is also fairly plentiful if you want to enjoy your drink there.
All the lattes are amazing!
Got and Iced matcha with honey, staff was so friendly the matcha came out so fast and tasted so good and the color was really pretty!!! Definitely coming back!
Spanish latte was bomb! Service was great! Enough seating for the space and the vibe was chill overall. They have a pretty good pastry selection and offer milk alternatives as well. Glad there's a small, local coffee shop near my job now instead of another Starbucks! Will definitely go back
Ordered an iced latte and it was tight, they know what they're doin with those beans. 10/10
