“Happiness begins from within- Here& Now” Sandcouch Cafe & Kitchen. Finally I’ve tried this cafe place and I like the place. Clean and you can stay there for a while. Not loud and people who works here are nice and friendly. Helpful too. 👍🏻 I enjoyed my Chorizo burrito 🌯 and my hibiscus 🌺 tea ☕️. For sure I’ll be coming back. They have healthy food too. Please support this cafe 👍🏻

Bright and airy coffee shop with a modern vibe. We ordered the smoked salmon and avocado toast and it was the best ever. The Malibu breakfast bowl was super nice too. Iced grasshopper and matcha latte super nice. Highly recommend

Delicious breakfast, three types of avocado toast. If you come early it is not super crowded. Gets more crowded as the day goes by. Food was really good and so was the coffee. Nice place to sit and relax and enjoy the start of the day.

I wish there were ten stars to give to this new restaurant!! The high quality and homemade recipes with locally sourced ingredients including 20 year old balsamic vinegar make this my new go-to place for breakfast and lunch!! I also stop here to grab a healthy dinner bowl with salmon. The crispy fish is huge and easily 2 meals. The wait staff are on top of it here. The coffee drinks are yummy. I tried their honey vanilla latte and it was the perfect amount of flavorings. I was especially pleased because it was not overly sweet. We went for Mother’s Day brunch and everyone loved their food. The strawberry mascarpone toast was delicious!!

This is the cutest brunch spot in DTLA! So clean and a fair amount of seating, also has a huge breakfast and lunch menu. The pastry options are also endless and everything was delicious!! Coffee and matcha were fantastic as well.

I love its avocado hummus toast!! It’s was so good and the environment was light and energetic. I saw lots of people coming for a coffee or a cup of yogurt after working out. A great spot to visit.

I never felt so comfortable and relaxed at a cafe before! I love the bright atmosphere I feel every time I come, and the vegetables they use are so fresh. The employees here always greet us with a warm smile and wonderful service, adding to the positive atmosphere. Today, I ate the grilled tofu with roasted vegetables. It was super healthy yet filling and very delicious.

Absolutely love Sandcouch! The aesthetics are cozy, and modern, making it a perfect spot to relax or get some work done. The vibes are amazing, a welcoming atmosphere and great background music. The food portions are very fair for the price, which is refreshing to see these days. Everything I ordered was well-prepared and delicious. Definitely a spot I’ll be visiting often in my future trips.

Great service and great food ! I had Grilled Chicken Sandwich, Avocado and Burrata Toast, Crispy Chicken Toast, this was much more than expected. All of them, full of flavor and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, making it the perfect place to have casual friendly meeting with friends. The staff always had this enjoyable smile, and attentive. Definitely will be coming back to try other food, highly recommend this spot to anyone who are visiting LA or DTLA for brunch or lunch ! way to go !!

Just discovered my new go-to spot for a slow weekend morning. The airy, sunlit interiors make it feel like a hidden retreat in the middle of Downtown LA. I ordered their veggie omelette (look at that color!) loaded with fresh bell peppers, onions, and a generous sprinkle of cilantro on top -- served with hearty slices of multigrain toast. Simple, wholesome, but full of flavor. Coffee? Smooth and balanced. Staff? Super friendly without being overbearing. The whole place has that "Instagrammable but still cozy" energy that makes you want to linger with your laptop or catch up with friends. If you're into fresh, unfussy brunch with a little LA chic, Sandcouch Café is definitely worth a stop. #DTLAeats #SandcouchCafe #BrunchGoals

Was looking to try a new breakfast spot/café and I'm so glad I ended up at Sandcouch Cafe--turns out it's the sister location to Basil & Cheese, which I love! They serve some of the best lattes around and have a great selection of breakfast and lunch items. My friend ordered the Siena wrap, and I had the bacon breakfast burrito--both were super tasty and satisfying. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a great spot to sit and relax, catch up with a friend, or get a little work done. Definitely adding this place to my regular rotation!

Restaurant ok. I found the coffee options good. Had the omelette. Seems like they have good baked goods but I tried none.

Stumbled upon this new coffee shop and cafe this morning after missing my stop on the metro. I walked in to take a look and ended up leaving with an americano and a blueberry lemon scone. Both were better quality than most coffeeshops in DTLA. The ambience is very inviting. I would like to come back for lunch or breakfast in the near future.

Decided to give this cafe a visit after walking past it multiple times. Decided to order their machaca breakfast burrito and it was so freakin good. Lots of meat, melted cheese, and crispy tator tots inside. Comes with a side of delicious salsa. Service was excellent and loved the decor and vibe inside the restaurant. Pro tip: Sit by the window if you love to people watch. Will definitely come back!

Ambiance: it's a spacious and trendy cafe place, high ceilings and comfortable seats, good place for quick bites Service: the cashier was nice and efficient, but either their manager or owner seems rude, when I found rotten leaves in their food and brought to his attention as a courtesy after I'm done eating and about to leave, he kept denying and saying it's not rotten, well you can't wake a person who is pretending to be asleep, overall it would have been a four star place, but one star off for ingredients not fresh, and another star off for the unprofessional attitude Food: plenty choices for breakfast and lunch, also there's pasty and coffee menu Grilled Pastrami Sandwich on Sourdough - ** Black Navel Pastrami, Swiss Cheese, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Sourdough, side of arugula salad, the pastrami meat was tasty although a bit salty, the lettuce was't fresh, so disappointing, obviously rotten from photos Price: moderate portions and slightly overpriced for the food quality, although it's understandable for downtown location

Cute, bright, and airy cafe serving breakfast and lunch. The bacon breakfast burrito was tasty. Cashier was friendly. She told me a few things people liked such as mortadella sandwich & other items. Great addition to Downtown; if you come on a Saturday, make sure to go stop by the mini South Park farmers market down the street. The only thing I can think of is the seating could be more comfortable, like maybe add cushions? I like the music playing in the background which wasn't too loud.

Service is amazing every time. Coffee and food as so good. Jalapeño bagel is my favorite and their breakfast burrito. I also order a mocha from here. A perfect spot to get some work done in the heart of DTLA. A little noisy if you are coming to work, but bright and beautiful

Came here for breakfast after loving the atmosphere when I walked by the window the day before. I got the avocado bacon bagel sandwich on a sesame bagel (they also had everything and plain options), and my boyfriend got the avocado bacon cheese croissant sandwich with tomato jam. I also ordered a vanilla matcha latte with whole milk. Everything was simple, tasty, and really satisfying. There was plenty of seating when we arrived, and the staff was actively cleaning tables, which I appreciated. I'd definitely come back!

We went for brunch, excited to try their menu. We ordered a variety of dishes, including pancakes, a chicken sandwich, a bacon breakfast burrito, and fries. Unfortunately, only the chicken sandwich really impressed us. The burrito didn't quite hit the mark, the bacon had an odd flavor and lacked crispiness, and the food wasn't even warm when it arrived. The fries were cold and hard, disappointing us further.

Stopped by Sandcouch Cafe early in the morning to try something new, and I'm so glad I did! I ordered a small honey vanilla latte with whole milk, and it was perfect--not too sweet, just right. This café is located downtown, right on the corner, so it's easy to find. They also serve breakfast and lunch, which is great if you're looking for more than just coffee. I've noticed a lot of people come here to get work done in the afternoons, so it definitely has a nice, relaxed vibe. If you're looking to switch things up from your usual Starbucks or Dunkin', I'd definitely recommend checking this place out. I'll be back for sure!

Really cute space and speedy service. We ordered avocado hummus toast and avocado breakfast burrito. Both were great and got to the table in five minutes. I haven't heard the greatest things about the coffee so I skipped it but this place is awesome and has a little vibe. I'm sure great spot to bring your computer during the week too.

Came here during a trip to LA. Ordered the smoked salmon and avocado toast, which was colorful, large, and tasty. I liked the balance of the different flavors and textures, from the roasted tomato to the balsamic vinegar to the cream cheese, it all mixed very well. The service was quite slow. I waited longer than expected for this toast to arrive to my table. I tried some of my dining partners' bagel sandwiches, and they were all excellent. The ambiance is chic modern cafe. The restrooms situation was less than ideal: both had "Out of Order" signs, but when we asked, an employee said that one of them was working, if you used a code from your receipt.

Good food - I had vegi breakfast burrito. Also had a latte which was also good. Very cute interior. Relaxed but upscale. Recommend if looking for a nicer / higher-end cafe experience. Service was friendly.

I've been trying matcha all over downtown LA and this place did not disappoint. I loved the decor inside. It was clean and pretty. They had a nice chandelier and big windows to see the city through. I ordered matcha with whole milk and it was just how I liked it; nice and sweet. The service was good and so was their omelette. Their cinnamon roll was ok. I wish it had more icing on it, but it was still good.

Beautiful, spacious and super clean environment. I was traveling and wanted to try a few different places once but ended up at Sandcouch twice because the chai was perfect, the people (staff and customers) were friendly AND they're dog friendly. The bagel, egg and cheese sandwich had hot bacon - it definitely hadn't been sitting in a tray for hours or microwaved, like so many places do - and was very generous with the egg and cheese. Highly recommend - I didn't sit outside but it looked like a cute patio area as well.

We stopped in once again for a late lunch on a Sunday afternoon and were not disappointed!! The interior is bright and feels refreshing. Again, the food items are cooked fresh to order. Yummy. As good as I remembered!

A new cafe in DTLA that opened just last week I believe. The place is popping and it has a really clean look and vibe. The food looks really good and the drinks were also good! Their most popular drinks are blueberry matcha, honey vanilla latte, and their regular matcha. They have 16 and 24oz sizes and parking is available on the street! Lots of indoor seating as well

Just two weeks ago, my friend Justin and I checked out the soft opening of Sand Couch, and we're so glad we did! This place is a fantastic addition to downtown at Seventh and Grand--it fills that need for a casual breakfast spot perfectly. We indulged in the pancakes topped with blueberry compote, which were delicious, and I can't recommend the chicken sandwich with bacon jam enough--it was absolutely my jam! The icing on the cake was running into some friends while we were there. It's such an LA thing to bump into familiar faces on a Sunday brunch outing! Overall, I highly recommend Sand Couch for a laid-back dining experience!

This place truly feels like home to me. I am here almost every weekend. The atmosphere is perfect. It is relaxed and filled with great music that makes it easy to focus. It is my go-to spot for getting work done on my laptop, and I always feel comfortable staying as long as I need. The coffee tastes so good and staff is always so friendly!

Cute clean coffee shop if you like to people watch. This place is new yet seems to have a good amount of people every time I go in. Not really a fan of the black plastic lids. I ordered a warm Matcha I was pleased with it. Service was good my matcha was done pretty quickly. good amount of options to pick from wasn't really a fan of the avocado toast.

I saw this on my daily walks and figured I check out their matcha. It's definitely worth the stop. I ordered a matcha latte with whole milk. It was the perfect temperature and at first I thought it was too sweet but after a good amount of sips, it ended up being just right. Solid coffee spot with a nice and inviting interior. A place to pull up a laptop and work on whatever. I'd definitely come back here again to try their other menu items.

Personally my go-to place when I am in DTLA! I really enjoy The Grasshopper. Their matcha is also pretty nice and has unique flavors, although I would say it's on the sweeter side (I ask for half sweet and it is too sweet still). The food also tastes flavorful (albeit a bit pricey) and better than I would have expected for a coffee shop/cafe

Yelp
I really enjoyed my experience at Sandcouch. Nice interior, quick service, and pretty solid food. I had a pastrami sandwich and fries. I felt like the sandwich needed mustard or some sauce on it, but it was still pretty good. The fries were also good, very well seasoned, but I'm more of a fan of thicker fries. That's just me though. The food was filling and I'm looking forward to coming back and trying something else.

Good was delicious and healthy, service was good and Ambiance was comfortable. They would of gotten a 5 star but we just had to wait for one of the plate. I believe they should of came out together but we had to remind them that we were still waiting for ONE of them.

Looooove this place! It's the best way to enjoy your breakfast and watch the city swirl past you. It's a beautiful location and has beautiful decor, very Scandinavian chic. Also the food is pretty great, a little pricey, but it's worth it. The service seemed a little slow, like they might be short staffed or something, but the quality was excellent.

I had the cardamom latte. It took awhile to get my drink since the place was quite busy when I was there. But I enjoyed my drink; I had it to go. I hope to dine there and try the seating area next time.

Walking in DTLA wanting to grab a coffee after my shopping, lol. Saw this in the corner of the street and it looked so peaceful and neat to me. The cashier was friendly. Gave my information about the drinks. I dined in and it was super quick service. The matcha flavor was perfect. The chicken salad was simple but tasty and fresh. I even journaled a bit. Definitely will be passing by again.

My favorite cafe in DTLA! I always order the iced blueberry matcha latte. Definitely order the power omelet, fig jam prosciutto Italian sandwich, or crispy herbed fish (I'm a regular :) ). The cafe is spacious, has a good amount of outlets to work/study, and there's always good music playing. Super friendly staff as well!

Got the Honey Cinnamon Latte and it was so good! The line to order was short but did have to wait some time to get my coffee. Overall though, pretty good. Will def return to try their sandwiches and pastries, everything looks so good. It's also really new inside, spacious, and really clean. Great place to study or work.

Matcha was sweat, and savory. I enjoyed it, best I've ever had. I also ordered an everything bagel it was pretty average considering the price. Matcha is a must go, the bagel won't come back for.

Place looks nice and we need more of these clean-cut shops around DTLA replacing dead steel, and I decided to pop-in for a croissant. They looked very crisp and fresh in the display, but they were meh, not even close to as fresh as the ones at Paris bakery, and a buck more expensive, AND smaller. 6 bucks for it yikes, easy one + done; asked to earn points cashier said only good for drinks (like, really?) Anyways it was a moot point in afterthought because won't be back for an overpriced and underwhelming croissant.

Destiny C.

Yelp
The matcha & breakfast burrito here are really good! Unfortunately they've raised their prices and this is easily the most expensive matcha in LA that I've had - Really kills it for me

Calvin Q.

Yelp
3.8/5 stars but I'll round to 4. I ordered a large matcha latte. It's really sweet, so if that floats your boat, go for it. $12 after tax for a large (16 oz) with quite a bit of ice. I thought it'd be like a matcha foam that I see all over the internet but nope. I also thought my name would be called to pick up my drink but nope. Service could be worked on a bit, but place is nice for a little cafe. Gotta also be careful outside. There was a homeless guy? who was yelling at me right when I got out and pulled a weapon on me LOL but it is dtla so if you're not used to it, BE CAREFUL.

We came here for breakfast and ordered a burrito and a steak and egg plate. The food was okay, nothing special. It was pricy and I hate when restaurants keep the condiments behind the counter ugh! I'm paying $20 for a burrito I should have access to all the ketchup I want. Anyway I don't think I'm coming back.
