Leilo Coffee

Great ambience, cute interior. There is seating inside and outside, however inside is not laptop friendly- tables are small. Also the space can feel crammed if there are a lot of people. The line was moving quite slow on a Sat morning. All good, they just opened so totally understand. Staff were friendly and accommodating. I ordered a latte- it was good. Looking forward to trying their other drinks next time.

Still in their soft opening period, the cafe only opens until 2pm in the afternoon and offers limited options of drinks and nibbles. I visited quite late and they did say that most pastries were out early in the day so what's displayed wasn't the full selections. The terracota-colored venue somewhat gave bit of BOHO touch but it's very iconic. Plenty of seats available if I took into account the outdoor area by the curbside, but each of the table pretty much accomodated 2 people max. I went for their signature Hot Maple Cinnamon Cappuccino, served in 8oz size. The iced one would be slightly bigger at 10oz. It was pretty strong, and prolly not suited my preference best as it's more on the acidic note. I did like the sweet maple flavor blended with cinnamon powder on top. Would probably give another go with their matcha next time.

I stopped by Leilo Coffee in Culver City and absolutely loved it! The place has such a warm, welcoming vibe, and you can feel the passion in every detail. The coffee is delicious, super smooth, and perfectly balanced. The pastries are fresh and tasty, and everything comes out beautifully presented. The staff is incredibly kind and attentive — they make you feel like a regular from the first visit. The shop is clean, cozy, and the perfect spot to relax, work, or grab something quick on the go. Highly recommend checking out Leilo Coffee if you’re in the area. Such a great addition to Culver City! ☕✨

I’m obsessed!! Best most beautiful coffee shop I’ve ever been to in my life. Felt like I was in a high end boutique and the coffee definitely lived up to the design. Best coffee in Culver City for sure

The lattes are kind of inconsistent so far. I've been 4 times. The first time it was amazing, like top 3 in the neighborhood. Second time was not as creamy/frothy, third time was good again but lacked sweetness and the fourth time was just ok. I also think the mug size is way too small. Literally the smallest out of any coffee shop in a 1 mile radius. I believe if they can get the consistency right and consider bigger mugs, they can become one of the best. I'm willing to change my rating to 5 stars if things change after their soft opening phase.

Soft opening recently, estimated mid December launch. Most of the coffee drinks are available, and they were great. No food available yet, no pour overs or drip coffees available yet. Metered street parking, free on the weekend. Would return to see what changes

Experienced staff create excellent coffee drinks with much care and expertise. Lots of pastry options, but few hot food options. Seats and tables are not geared toward long stays with your friends, but great for a quick visit.

Loved the matcha! Got it with vanilla syrup and cold foam, it was delicious!

I was so excited that a new neighborhood coffee shop had opened in a more sleepy, suburban part of Culver City, and I decided to stop by this morning to check out their soft opening and get a cup of joe this morning before Pilates. While I theoretically love the concept- a minimalistic, aesthetic space with artisan crafted matcha and coffee drinks, I felt like the quality of their drinks and speed of service still needs some work. I arrived at 10:20 to a small line, but it took until 10:40 to get to the front of the line and 10:50 to get my drink. I understand that a) this isn't Starbucks and b) it's their soft opening and they're still sorting out kinks especially with a busy weekend morning rush, but the efficiency felt limited due to the fact that there was only one cashier, who often had to step away since he was also hand mixing the matcha, pouring the latte art, and adding the finishing touches to the drinks. I felt like these tasks could have been delegated to the 4 other employees all jammed behind the small coffee bar, while the cashier focused on taking orders to prevent a line build up at the door. Onto the drinks - I ordered a regular latte with their special seasonal espresso, and to say I was disappointed is an understatement, especially considering how expensive and nice their espresso machine is. With add-ons like oat milk, the seasonal espresso, and vanilla syrup, my drink came out to $8 for a small cup. The espresso itself was not flavorful and even almost bitter, and the latte was so muted that it tasted almost like a flat white. The cafe itself is beautiful, but the seating is a bit cramped especially with the line to order blocking one entrance, and both indoor and outdoor seating is a bit better for waiting/conversing than sitting down and doing work. I also think they need to add a sign to watch your step at their back entrance (near the bathroom), since there's a six inch drop from the cafe floor to the sidewalk outside that almost made me trip and drop my coffee. Overall, I see a lot of potential for this coffee shop, but I'd give them some time to sort out their operations and for the lines to die down before coming back again.

Yay! Love when a new chic and sophisticated spot opens up in an unsuspecting neighborhood. The coffee, and tea are undoubtedly high quality and absolutely delicious. do yourself proud by understanding the difference between mediocre and superior coffee, and then go order one here! Interior is elegantly balanced with simplicity and quality, with attention to details. indoor and outdoor seating, free wifi, bathroom access and plenty of street parking makes it a go to spot. highly recommended!
