Aquarela Coffee - DTLA, Los Angeles CA

Excellent coffee. Unique Brazilian espresso - very floral. Made for a perfect cappuccino. Also, great, friendly service.

So, so good. Best coffee I’ve had in a long while. The two guys at the stand were so friendly and attentive. Recommend!

They always hound you. I’m literally just walking by I don’t want your overpriced stuff. I know you’re selling coffee.

Follow the coffee signage located on 5th or Grand Ave and be whisked away into a dreamy lobby of old-time Los Angeles. A quick walk from the Broad Museum (5 mins tops)

Not only is the location of this coffee shop beautiful, but the service and coffee are always top notch. Friendly baristas and even better coffee.

I've tried almost all of their speciality coffees and have been impressed by each one. Generally I am not a fan of mochas, but their Sabotage coffee isn't too sweet and has a nice hint of spice.

Recommend having your coffee there and enjoying the beautiful details in the lobby. Let your eyes wander and appreciate all the stonework!

This is a place for real coffee lovers, run by real coffee lovers. Incredibly friendly staff and incredibly good espresso in a unique location.

“A hint of guava and passionfruit…”

The drip coffee was incredible! Felt freshly poured, perfect temperature, and their pastries were out of this world.

I won’t speak too much about the building because you’ll see for yourself. It’s amazing! Top hat energy for sure.

Friendly baristas, tasty and authentic Brazilian coffee in a peaceful and quiet space. Definitely should visit!

Great shop great location friendly staff reasonable prices I highly recommend it if you’re in downtown and you’re looking for some fresh coffee or smoothies

Good ambiance, atmosphere, and area (alliteration for the win) to study or meet up. Ironically, as someone who abstains from drinking coffee, it is nevertheless the only coffeeshop I will frequently head to in Old town Los Angeles, CA.

Pretty great place to get some work done and enjoy some great coffee! I always stick with their cold brew, which is actually with refills, which for a snobby coffee joint is actually relatively cheap! And if you are staying to get some work done, those refills can really add up.

This place is amazing! I had to order out because, you know, coronavirus, but man was the food still good. My sister and I planned on grabbing take out brunch, and driving up the 2 til we found some picnic tables to eat. We ended up getting the chilaquiles and the banana bread french toast. The french toast was INCREDIBLE.it had a cornflake coating and came with strawberries and bananas. The chilaquiles we're just as good! I can't wait to come here when we can have meals in restaurants again.

Quality, taste, aesthetically pleasing and customer service all excellent! Strongly recommended! Went back today for the second time before leaving the town then I learned that they open at noon.got there eatlier

This spot is a little oasis in Los Angeles! Friendly owners, cozy chic decor and they have an amazing menu of different drinks.

Also, their pastry selection is awesome and vegan friendly!

I'm personally a big fan of their Palmer teas!

Great addition to the neighborhood! This is exactly the kind of neighborhood coffee shop that's been lacking from this East Hollywood stretch. Clean, minimal interior doesn't distract from the simple menu. Good spot to sit and work, as well.

Awe-inspiring desserts and impressive coffee taste! All of my inquiries were addressed professionally without any hesitation. Such a wonderful place to visit! Trust me! You will never be disappointed for sure. Highly recommended for both meetings and friends as well for having an excellent atmosphere. Outstanding ambiance!

Stopped in for breakfast today. Excellent selection of food and the baking is amazing. The staff were very friendly and welcoming but the thing that tipped it over the top was the incredible coffee. If you are near you need to swing by.

I recommend their signature drink which is Cream Latte.
Got it modified and I wanted a taste of coffee with a soothing earthy sweet taste of cream. It mixed well and was quite energizing.

It was my first time here, and I was impressed with how big it was. This is a good place to get some work done on your laptop or to meet someone to chat. They also have breakfast items and avocado toast and seasonal toast items. I got the avocado toast and really enjoyed it. It is a good sized (larger) piece of toast for a bigger snack.

Clean, Cute Coffee shop.
As a coffee lover, I went to tons of coffee shops.
They have great selection of coffee beans and they have signature menu.
