This is a cute outdoor coffee shop that's actually open past 2 PM if you want something later in the day. The cashier was friendly and told us what each of the bakery items were since they didn't have labels. I liked the iced vanilla latte which wasn't too sweet. Unfortunately, they didn't have non-fat milk. The blueberry muffin was also good.

Nice Coffee has great customer service, pastries, and drinks! My coworkers and I usually get our lattes here, when we're in the office. I personally get their matcha latte and a pastry. My favorite pastries are their ham and cheese (this has the cutest pickle) or raspberry danish. Honestly, you can't go wrong with their pastries, which come from Sugarbloom Bakery. Their baristas also have great style!

I am totally OBSESSED with their lavender latte and butter croissants. As soon as I get in at 7am, I drop my bags in my office and head over to Nice coffee . The employees are so friendly and happy, it really starts your mornings off right! I'm a repeat customer.

Thank goodness for Nice Coffee! Pre-Covid, it was a great alternative to the ubiquitous Starbucks on almost every other city block. Since the Starbucks in the nearby vicinity has been closed, Nice has been an oasis in a coffee desert! The line comes and goes. Sometimes it can be confusing as to where the line ends. They have a great selection of pastries and savory items. The breakfast burritos are just the right size. I haven't had the chance to try their lunch option but I'm sure they are delish! As for coffee, I am a creature of habit and always order the cold brew. On occasion they have a sparkling cold brew (cold brew mixed with a sparkling, flavored water.) It's a short wait for the cold brew. I've seen others waiting for their drinks. I have no idea what they've ordered. Enjoy!

My coworker recommended this place and I'm so glad I checked it out! Delicious coffee and I loved the almond croissant! It had jelly inside so it was almost like a pb&j croissant! The service was also very nice! And it's a cute little coffee shop in the middle of an office building courtyard.

I promise you this is the best iced matcha latte in DTLA if you're looking for something close to your office! It's not sweetened and the oat milk doesn't overpower the matcha, like the majority of iced matcha lattes I have had in this area. The matcha taste is robust and strong! I also love that they have a bottle of simple syrup on the side for you to add as you need. Ambience: Casual open seating area, great for people watching. Service: Everyone who helped me out was very friendly. The vibes are great!

Made it to Nice Coffee today for a quick pick me up around 355pm right before they closed. Was deciding to order either the Thin Mint Mocha and the Lavender Latte. Wanted it with soy milk but they only offer it with almond or oat milk as alternatives to regular milk. It's a coffee stand that's outside the Drago Center. They had a decent amount of foot traffic when I visited, about 8 people ahead of me, but from standing in line to getting my drink in hand it was no more than seven minutes turn around time which is quick. The thin mint mocha was a 6 out of 10. Might have gotten my hopes up. It cost me 6 bucks plus a dollar more for tip. It also didn't come out too hot. Which was a bit disappointing since it was a chilly day. Obviously inspired by the thin mint girl scouts cookies. Vaguely reminded me of it. Would say it did taste more minty than chocolately. Not regretting I ordered it but thought it would be a better balance of flavors or at least taste more similar to the cookies. Definitely gave me a boast of energy I was looking for and sustained me for the four hours I needed to be on. Which was exactly what I needed. All in all. Given the location where there are multiple seats to relax. And given the speed of service. And given how nice the people were. I'd give it a 4 star. The coffee is the reason it wasn't a 5 star. If it wasn't for the atmosphere and speed of service it would have been a 3 star place.

Many years ago, I worked in the building where Nice Coffee now sits. My 1998 mind would have been blown by coffee this good! On a recent visit I was drawn to the beautiful outdoor Cafe. I got in line and ordered my pastry and coffee to stay. Far more than a coffee counter for local workers, the coffee, the pastry, the presentation were all phenomenal. My cortado was excellent. Later, I learned that a founder of the excellent Handsome Coffee is behind the place. That explained a lot. The savory butternut squash pastry was delicate and delicious. Staff were friendly and moved quickly. The morning light made everything look gorgeous and glamorous. Everything about the cafe seems carefully designed in the best way. I'll be back every time I'm in LA.

The oat milk lattes & chocolate croissants are both so good. Love that it's an outdoor cafe with seating. Also they have a cashier that looks vaguely like Chance the Rapper, and he was super nice. Would be back next time I'm in LA
