Chimney Coffee House - Los Angeles, California

Pierre Beaufrand

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 If you’re looking for a chill spot in Chinatown to start your day, THIS is the place! Picture this: morning coffee ☕ in one hand, laptop in the other, and a record player spinning sweet tunes in the background 🎶. It's got the vibes for days! The crew here? Straight-up legends 👑—super friendly and more than happy to help you pick the perfect breakfast combo.

Now, let's talk food. I went for the breakfast burrito 🌯 because, honestly, you can't go wrong with a classic. My girlfriend tried the "Candy B.E.A" Sandwich with Tamarind Candy Bacon 🥓, and let me tell you, that thing was a flavor bomb 💥! Whoever thought of putting tamarind and bacon together deserves a medal 🥇.

It’s the kind of place where you can chill, get some work done 💻, and just enjoy the morning vibe. Plus, it’s Chinatown, so you know the energy is on point. Can’t wait to swing by again when I’m in the area!

The food is good! The coffee is great! Prices are high but typical for LA. My sandwich was very filling! Would absolutely come back and try other things. Cute place to sit and hang out with friends while sipping on coffee. The service is wonderful, everyone there was so nice and kind.

Parking is a small lot that’s also for LAX-C market and other stores. But it’s free. Spaces are tight and they cut off the exit of a one way narrow section so to exit you have to turn back around going the wrong way technically and trying to maneuver past oncoming cars to exit.

Lovely coffee shop a bit expensive but average for LA. Swamp drink (matcha and chai) was very good ! Expect to pay 6-8 for a drink. Not very crowded at lunch, a few outlets.

Lots of activity in the parking lot. Inside, no music so a good place if you don’t mind a bit of quiet !

Breakfast sandwich was very good, a bit hard to eat as the egg kept slipping from the buns (double egg, scrambled and fried).

Chimney used to be my go-to spot. They have a really good breakfast sandwich. Even when the prices went up here, I still would come for the sandwiches and French toast. However, recently I feel the service and quality has declined. Just stopped in for a pastry and matcha today, the croissant and muffin me and my partner received were literally frozen on the inside. I had to wait in line to ask to have them heated up because they were inedible. After waiting, heating, receiving them again, eating them (still cold btw) we still hadn't even received our drinks. There was no sense of urgency or apology for the extensive wait time and frozen food. While I wish I could say this was a one-off thing, I've noticed the service being poor the last 2-3 times I've gone, this time just may have been my last visit unfortunately.

Candy BAE was so good I had to come back the following day to have it again.

I randomly pulled up to this shop while I was driving by for a coffee. I ended up getting the candy bae and a matcha instead. Both were absolutely incredible so much so that I had to tell all my friends and told them to come through. I hate that I'm late this party but now that I'm here I'm here 😂. The staff was super friendly as well and therr was so much space to sit and beautiful artwork on the walls. Definitely recommend. definitely coming back.

✅ Good for working
✅ Free WiFi and outlets
✅ Free parking

A coffee shop perfect for studying and working, with power outlets and free WiFi available. When you're tired from work, you can also lift your head and admire the beautiful artworks on the wall. The baristas are all very friendly. I ordered an oat milk latte, and I really liked it as it had a strong coffee flavor!

非常適合讀書辦公的咖啡廳，有插頭還有免費WiFi，工作累了還可以抬頭看看牆上美麗的藝術品。
咖啡師們都非常友善，點了一杯燕麥奶拿鐵，咖啡味很重我很喜歡！

Love everything about Chimney Coffee! The staff are sweet, the coffee is consistently on point, and the vibe is clean + casual. Parking is easy right in front, and Thai groceries / dining / breweries are all in walking distance.

They are open most days 7am-4pm, and Wi-Fi is free + fast. I usually tutor or get work done here, and definitely prefer the espresso over the matcha. My go-to is the large iced latte, which is about $7. Also love their Cobb salad, which includes greens, onion, tomato, avocado, boiled egg, and bacon. Check this place out!

Great place! Lots of space, convenient seatings to eat and work if needed, convenient free parking. Food and coffee was pretty good - breakfast burrito is a winner! A little pricey but worth it.

UPD: $6 for cold brew + $1 minimum tips is EXPENSIVE
