Eightfold Coffee

Eightfold is by far the best coffee shop in the city! Their drinks are always on point, they sell delicious bagels & toasts, and a variety of coffee beans & at home brewing equipment. I appreciate that it’s one of the few shops that does NOT up-charge for alt milks. The baristas here are the kindest, no-bullshit, realest people. They always make my day! There’s also free wifi, free street parking after 9AM, and plenty of seating. Pro tip: Park up on Kensington and take the stairs down to Sunset for additional parking options and a cute little walk.

Happily surprised at the taste of coffee. But as I’ve been told, echo park has good coffee and that is as not a lie. I got a good ole cold brew and when I say I was HAPPILY SURPRISED, I promise I indeed was. The first sip had me like 😍 Ended up texting my partner a picture of the menu and he instantly told me to bring him home a coffee 🤣 The staff/baristas are nice and welcoming here too!!

eastern exposure. so you won't get sunlight in the afternoon. open until 4:30. the chai latte tastes good but the latte art baaad. the books seen in the pics are not there anymore

Great coffee shop for studying, working, and chatting with friends. I like their hojicha latte and chai latte. You can’t go wrong with their pastries!! By far, my favorites are spinach one and mushroom one.

First time here, Saturday morning and parking was so easy. Walked right in, no wait, so much beautiful natural light if you need a place to sit and work or just hang out. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Restaurant was very clean. Didn’t order food but oh man the avocado toast looked absolutely amazing! I’d go back just to try that! And my lavender latte was amazing! They also put my boyfriend’s coffee in his personal cup which was awesome and saves some waste! I’d give another star just for that! lol. Highly recommend and will return.

This cafe might seem a little out of the way for most Echo Park roamers, but that’s a plus in my book. It’s not overly crowded and pretty spacious on the inside. Well lit with the tall glass windows and a variety of seating to fit everyone’s needs. If there is any downside it’s that the menu isn’t as diverse as other cafes. This isn’t such a bad thing since they do a solid job with the staple drinks, and they offer a pretty robust list of teas as well. Something many other cafes can’t boast. For a regular and local to the cafe, that’s exactly what you want. For anyone who is just exploring the neighborhood, you’re better suited going further west on Sunset though. It’s also a bit cluttered in the back making it hard to sit at the communal tables if someone is blocking one side of it already. And it’s not as well lit back there either but that’s a given since you’re pretty far back from the windows. Overall a decent cafe at the edge of the hood that’s worth a stop at.

Eightfold's Echo Park location is effortlessly elegant, and illuminous with morning lights. There are wooden benches and small tables along the walls, the rest—a great amount of space—is generously left empty. The space feels like a warehouse art gallery. My first drink at Eightfold was an excellent cortado, bright, balanced, and beautiful. During my following visits I had the Eightfold Cold Brew and Golden Latte. I enjoyed them both, especially the tumeric latte. I thought it would be a regular latte with tumeric powder like a cinnamon latte, but it's not espresso based and I still liked it. All this said, the services I received have been consistently distant, not rude, just distant, unenthusiastic. The baristas are much more lighthearted with the regulars, which makes me feel like an outsider.

Beautiful spot! Perfect, high quality drinks and they serve in real glass if you order "for here" which is a bonus. It's a great spot for a treat and a slow morning.

the eightfold cold brew is delicious. The baristas are super pro. Pro at espresso drinks, all things coffee, and working fast, but really kind, even though they are busy. Even though it says no dogs allowed outside they do have lil treats for your pup at the counter and they didnt enforce that no pet policy while i was there. The space is large and airy, with ample old world meets new world marble top tables, great for a chat or a game of chess. I love trying new coffee shops every time i come to LA, and this one is lovely. I'm coming back:)

Been wanting to visit this coffee shop for ages and I'm so glad I finally did! I got a pumpkin spice latte bc the jack-o'-lantern latte art they do was just too cute. But it was one of the best psl I've had! The blend of spices was perfect! The staff is friendly here too!

Quick service, and they have a really good matcha! I added some vanilla syrup to mine to add just a little bit of sweetness. Very dog friendly cafe! Your pups are welcome even indoors. Plus the space looks like a good place to get some work done.

They have amazing customer service!! Highly recommend their chai latte and I love the atmosphere of the echo park location.

When arriving to this cafe parking will be street parking, but we did not have any issue finding a spot! The cafe had a very chill atmosphere with a lot of seating! The service was really great! They were very nice and patient with us while we ordered! We ordered the Eightfold cold brew, butter toast with jam, and the everything bagel with cream cheese! The toast was on a sourdough bread which was literally SO deciduous! It had the best crunch and flavor! The jam on the toast was the cherry chai jam which if I'm not mistaken they make their own! The everything bagel was also delicious, it did not skimp out on the seasonings and the bagel was toasted to perfection! We REALLY enjoyed the Eightfold cold brew, the flavor was top notch and it was creamy! We were overall very impressed by this cafe and we can't wait to go back and try some more of what they have! Check out their instagram for inspiration if you're headed there!

Earl grey latte- so good, I think it's seasonal but it should be added to the permanent roster. It also came with vegan cold foam on top which doesn't hold its shape as well as regular cold foam but in terms of flavor it wasn't an issue. Orange espresso tonic- pretty good, nice espresso taste and orange flavor. Turmeric latte- not my personal favorite but it tastes very healthy, it was okay but also stained my mouth yellow lol Nice coffee shop they give you nice tall glass cups when drinking in house and have compostable straws. We didn't try their baked goods but they looked good.

This used to be my favorite coffee shop to spend the day working in, but unfortunately the experience has gone downhill. The staff has made it increasingly difficult to enjoy being here, and today solidified that I will not be returning. The barista was incredibly rude, to the point that I felt so uncomfortable I packed up and left. I could overlook the blasting music early in the morning, but being treated with blatant disrespect is unacceptable. Coffee is great. I'll give them that.

I walked in, no line. Waited for the barista to notice me while she was in conversation (a good 3min). When she noticed me she gave a loud annoyed sign. When I asked about the lattes she gave very short answers without even looking at me. After I ordered she went back to her conversation for a while till she decided to make my coffee. After she was done she put the coffee on the counter without saying a word or looking at me. I said,"thank you"; no reply. I grew up around Sunset Blvd and I loved going to new cafes and restaurants but it's rude and pretentious people like this that have tarnished the spirit of Sunset Blvd. I will never come here again.

We loved the coffee at eightfold! I got the espresso tonic with orange which was amazing, and very refreshing. My friend ordered the praline latte with oat milk, and asked for it to be less sweet and it was perfect. Great place to get some work done, with a great interior.

Back on my coffee tour and today's stop was at eightfold. A cute and cozy coffee shop minutes away from dodgers stadium. I ordered the Spanish latte and a turkey and cheese croissant the latte wasn't overly sweet I can't really pick up a flavor on it, but it still served it's purpose

Great coffee, great atmosphere, wonderful baristas that always go above and beyond. 10/10 across the boards. So happy to have found this gem in Echo Park.

Was looking to grab some coffee at a spot that was open somewhat later in the afternoon, and this place came up. I'm really happy I decided to stop by! Ordered the Eightfold Cold Brew, which was their special signature drink. It was sweetened with oat milk and maple syrup, and it was simply delicious. Sweet, but not too sweet. The cold brew flavor was strong and didn't taste watered down. I placed my order online for pick up and it was ready within 5 minutes. :) The drinks were prepared and sitting at the entrance for me to pick up.

Good matcha latte. They use Ippodo matcha so definitely high points there. Service was super friendly. Cute and specious coffee shop. Plenty seating area.

Pros: cute spot inside and good coffee. Cons: came in on a Sunday at 3:45 pm and didn't get the best service. The woman at the counter didn't look too happy and wasn't too helpful while I was deciding what drink to get. I tried to order an avocado toast but she said they're "done with food for the day" which I was surprised about as they didn't close until 5 pm. She was very short with her words and continued to mop as I was trying to order. Parking was also soooo hard to find.

Whoever said that there were outlets here lied... or the people at the cafe covered it up. The service is nice, the atmosphere is good, everyone is doing their own work and seems nice. I didn't try out the food. But no outlets here so I'll probably head out in a few hours. Edit: omg the macchiato I got was sooo sour.... I think their coffee is overdue... I've never tasted coffee so gross in my life... I just got here and I planned to study but I think I will leave and go to Starbucks or Philz coffee...

We ordered an oat latte and a cold brew. Unfortunately the coffee taste in both of these was not strong. My latte primarily tasted like oat milk and unfortunately, I could barely taste the coffee and unfortunately, it was the same thing with the cold brew. Parking is metered/street parking only on busy sunset Blvd. The decor inside eightfold coffee is minimal and there are no outlets.

Service can be a hit or a miss but I keep coming back for that Spanish latte. It's soooo good.

This is close to the Super 8 by Dodger Stadium. It's walkable from the hotel. So if you don't like the breakfast there you can come over to this coffee shop and get a good breakfast. Dogs are allowed inside and on the outside patio. Service was great as there are 3-4 people working. The line is cut down quickly and there isn't much time waiting.

Having been here multiple times, the coffee is excellent, the croissants are flaky and delicious but I really must repeat that the coffee is amazing. So amazing that I've had multiple cups due to the delicious flavor. As for the ambiance, it's a mixed bag really. Having been there with people and myself, it can range from quiet and chill with people on their laptops or reading, or loud with inane chatter and loud barking. When it comes to the baristas, I can't help but remember when I was in high school and I really wanted to be with the popular crowd and impress all those popular girls but failed miserably. That's how I feel sometimes when I come in here. The girls are so cool and you wanna impress them but for me, anyway, I become awkward. I never have that feeling anymore but I do when I go here. I guess I have to come back multiple times for that feeling to subside. Out of all the cool coffee shops in this area, I feel this one is the most chill (RIP Silverback Coffee which won hands down) and hip at the same time. Whether you wanna come read, again bring some good headphones cuz the talking can be loud. If you wanna have a chill meeting here, it's a good place. But overall, it's definitely a place I would be a regular if I lived around here. Check it out!

I wish I lived nearby because I'd come here so so often! I got a hojicha latte with oat milk and a cinnamon roll-esque pastry. Both were 10/10 seriously so good. It's hard to find hojicha and I absolutely loved theirs! The pastry had such a good texture and didn't just taste like pure sugar. I will definitely be back any time I'm in the area!

Cute guy working behind the counter. Popped in after my Covid test at dodger stadium. They have one designated parking spot out front for running in to order and leave. Perfect set up. It's very cute inside, Clean and open. My Spanish latte was amazing and that was probably the best blueberry scone I've had.

Cute coffee shop! Really enjoyed my matcha latte. My husband also enjoyed his Arnold Palmer. The service was great too!

Eightfold is one of the best coffee shops in Los Angeles. Everything is done perfectly from the filter coffee to lattes to cold brew. They carry some vegan baked goods as well with one gluten free option. Lots of seating. Everyone is always friendly. 10/10

my favorite cafe in all of LA! the espresso is always consistently perfect. you can tell they put a lot of time and effort into the process to make such great tasting coffee. pastries are always fresh too and there's a really good selection in their take out fridge as well. the baristas are always very sweet and fun to chat with, and the space is always spotless! couldn't ask for a more perfect place to start my morning commute to work.

I ordered matcha and the barista made it according to my liking. I got the ube oreo cookie which tasted really good! It paired well with my matcha. I look forward to visiting again and get a coffee next time.

Boss: Alexa, direct me to the best coffee shop. Alexa: Boss, here's my top list. Let's start this new coffee shop review. Eightfold is a small coffee shop in the eastern section of Echo Park. It's located along Sunset blvd and Innes ave. I've been to most coffee shops in Echo Park/Silverlake neighborhood except this one. Eightfold doesn't look much from the outside, but it has imbued the hearts of the locals. I arrived on a warm sunny Thursday and was warmly greeted by a barista with cool tats. I perused their menu on the wall and have decided to get a nice cold brew. As I wait for my drink, I couldn't help but notice the shop's massive whitewash exposed brick decorated with pic frames and how they maximized their space, modern lighting, non ergonomic small Ikea like tables/chairs, and a long grey back table. Furthermore, it's interior was very relaxing and inviting with plethora of natural lights coming from its front windows. The shop's layout design was adroitly conceived. My cold brew coffee arrived in a timely manner. I took a sip and it was orgasmic. Prices of their coffee and teas seem reasonable for the area. Street parking only. They only accept cashless payment. Overall, I had a nice order experience and a good drink. I recommend this coffee shop.

Cute & chill place to do some work! A good number of seating options with outlets throughout. I was here from opening on a Sunday morning for a few hours to get some work done, and it didn't get to busy or loud. Wi-Fi was great and easy to find the password for. I street parked, which was also relatively easy this morning. The iced lavender latte wasn't my favorite as the flavor was a bit muted, but the vibes and staff were great!

Maybe my favorite coffee in the area, but the service needs a checkup. There's two nice girls that (piercings and blonde with blue eyes) work there that are great and one kinda guy who has an attitude problem . He and another girl seem to find it impossible to get the order right and they never apologize when they do... and for that they are hit and miss in general. :/

Where to start?!?! Laura the barista is amazing and to be honest that alone I would come back here for. She is completely personable funny and friendly! She recommended a great matcha lemonade for my friend who doesn't drink coffee and I went with a vanilla latte! The prices are 5 stars! The pastries are 5 stars! The staff is beyond amazing! Completely recommended for anyone in the Echo Park area!

My go to place for oak lattes near DTLA! The cashiers are friendly! Cute spot to hang out and zone out if you want to work/read.

Cute hidden spot! We got the hot chocolate and the citrus espresso tonic today. Hot chocolate was tasty and my boyfriend enjoys the tonic. He gets it every time. Every time we stop by it's pretty quiet and chill. Don't skip the pastries. They're the perfect sweet treat. We got the milk bun and the marble cake. So yummy!

Wrong hours posted and instead of just letting customers in who are there at what is posted as the opening time, the person couldn't multi task pouring some iced coffees and sent people away

From the street, this coffee shop is really easy to miss, but the inside is really spacious! There is a lot of seating available, but keep in mind that the tables are really short and there are no outlets-- so not ideal for your posture and for working very long here. They play chill music inside, but it is at a pretty high volume, so bring headphones or something if you get distracted easily. Their latte has more of a smoky flavor and a thick layer of foam on the top. It's not the best latte that I've had, but it's fine. They do have a large selection of teas though, so maybe check that out when you're here!

The service is great! The worker gave me a recommendation of the iced matcha with vanilla syrup. Apparently they make vanilla syrup in house! It tasted so bomb! The hot brew was just okay. The latte also was pretty average, nothing special but still good! Would come back again! Parking is all street parking which makes it a struggle in LA.

Love their barista! She so nice! The girly with the nose ring! Been coming here twice already my husband loved the drinks esp the banan choco bread ... perfection!!! Will come back for sure esp i have a discount code

I want to start off by saying that the only thing that stood out to me was the amazing decor and interior style of this cafe. It induces relaxation and comfort. Now, there are two major reasons (and one minor) that made me deliver my first ever bad review. When I first came in the girl taking orders was exuding a hostile attitude. I let it slide by because maybe I thought she was having a bad day. The attitude continued as I ordered but I ignored it. But I quickly learned that attitude and rudeness was just with me. Soon after a group of men followed in and her persona completely changed. She was instantly nice and welcoming to them. My drinks were soon called out by the barista. I told her thank you but I just received a "mhm". I planned to stay inside the cafe but I already felt uncomfortable with the rudeness of the girl taking orders and the barista, so I decided to leave. I'm sorry but this was by far the most tasteless matcha I've had ever. I seriously just paid almost 6 for a cup of whole milk, because that's what it tasted like. The other drink I got was an iced Latte and it was just disappointing. It tasted like watered down iced coffee. And parking is very limited ( as it is on Sunset), so good luck with that.

Eightfold Coffee is located on a section of Sunset Blvd between Silver Lake and Downtown LA that is not so busy. It was very easy to find vacant spots to park in on the street. Also found nearby is one of those legacy staircases that allows pedestrians to cut through between houses to get from one street to another street that is of a much higher elevation. On this day, I was in the mood for a sweet coffee drink so I ordered the Spanish Latte which had condensed milk and cinnamon. It was really great! I can't do it all the time, but I still very much highly recommend it. Hot Chocolates for the kids were good. The Latte is good too. Easy to order.

Great place for some coffee! First of all the interior of the shop is stylish and clean. We ordered the Iced Vanilla Latte and the Iced Mocha. Both were great in flavor and caffeine strength. The ambience of the shop is really nice and a great place to catch up with friends over coffee or to study/do some work on your laptop!

Coffee was good, walkable from our hotel. Parfait was good too. Service was fine too. Cute place. I would go back and get a coffee there but I wasn't super in love with the place. Just an ok experience with decent coffee.

amazing lattes, fast service, and a great place to catch up with friends. There's an ample amount of casual seating as well.

I love coming here. Their coffee never disappoints. This time I added breakfast with avocado toast. Let me tell you this one was delicious!! The toast was well seasoned. The avocado was well ripped which made it even better. The coffee was strong with rich notes of their blend. I highly recommend this coffee shop! I will be back to try their overnight oats since they were sold out.

A chill spot. They had steady traffic but it wasn't impossible to get my order in and served quickly and I was able to find a seat. I tried the Spanish latte - I opted for a soy milk base and the "Spanish" treatment was sweetened condensed milk and cinnamon. Delicious!

Nice, calming vibe inside. They have some workspace, but the two person tables are pretty low and not ideal being hunched over long. They definitely do noooot skimp on topping that avocado toast. Cold brew was pretty smooth and not terribly acidic either.

Pretty good spot for coffee, outdoor seating too. Good service and inside seating gets filled up fast. I'd come back.

What a cute find, just popped in and was delightfully surprised. The spanish latte is soo good, almost just as good as community goods, but you get sooo much more bang for your buck. Decadent matcha hitttt, wish i tasted more condensed milk, but it was def sweet enough so dont really mind. Also the crew was super quick so kudos. #love

Good vibe. Came on Sunday afternoon and not a lot of people. Avocado is thic. Much appreciated. Low tables not ideal for work and not too many outlets but aesthetic is good. Speed test at 65Mbps.

I moved to the neighborhood a few months ago and Eightfold very quickly became my go-to spot for coffee. The service and seasonal offerings have been hitting lately and I'm already thinking about my next strawberry matcha latte.

I really want to enjoy this coffee shop, but the staff makes it quite difficult to. I come here often since it's the closest cafe to me - the coffee and food itself is really good. It also is a great environment to work in. The staff however overall is quite unfriendly (except for one of the baristas who is very kind, I don't know their name but they have brown curly hair, tattoos and big glasses). It almost feels like the staff goes out of their way to not have basic customer service skills. It's very bizarre. No basic hellos or greetings before you order, when I stay thank you after receiving the order, they won't acknowledge that. And occasionally one of the staff members will be quite condescending. To contrast this, Stereoscope coffee which is also near by has a wonderful and very friend staff. Overall, this makes me want to stop coming here, because I know that 9 times out of 10 the experience will be negative.
