Signature Camel Latte with chocolate-orange blend
"After recent changes, the popular Korean cafe formerly known as Camel Coffee in Silver Lake has rebranded as Handles Coffee, with owners deciding to start fresh without a prior partner, as reported by Family Style Fest on Instagram." - Mona Holmes
"As a newcomer from South Korea, Camel Coffee delights patrons with its namesake special — two espresso shots, milk, and a creamy topping — that offers a distinctive way to caffeinate in Los Angeles." - Eater Staff
"In Los Feliz, Camel Coffee occupies the former Cafe Caravan space and presents a relaxed, rustic-cool vibe with vintage furniture, art, a beige brick exterior, prolific writing on wooden walls, and eclectic knick-knacks like animal manikins—a look curated with help from a team from Korea. The menu brings Camel’s signature drinks from Korea, including the Camel Coffee (an 8-ounce drink with two shots of espresso, milk, and a cream top), the MSGR multigrain misugaru shake, and the Le Tigre, a small, dense, buttery financier-like pastry; the Los Angeles outpost also offers unique items like the Camel Matcha and a plant-based rendition of the cream top made with coconut oil and a vegan sweetener, and an upstairs loft provides a cozy, intimate space for visitors, though lines can exceed two hours on weekends." - Cathy Park
"If you’ve spent much time tracking down the best flat white in Seoul, there’s a chance you’ve heard of Camel Coffee, a hip Korean coffee chain that just opened its first US location in Los Feliz. Look for their signature Camel Latte that’s subtly flavored with chocolate and orange, drinks made with matcha or misugaru (roasted grain powder), and a selection of fancy pastries including freshly baked (you guessed it) croissants." - Garrett Snyder
"I waited in Camel Coffee’s hour-plus line to try what Time Out LA calls one of Los Angeles’s buzziest cafés, and the queue rewarded me with drinks like milk teas, matcha lattes, and its popular multi-grain misugaru." - Mona Holmes
