Yeems Coffee

Been in a fan of Yeems since I tried it in Ktown and certainly have been missing out not knowing they have another outlet in Gardena. You can certainly tell a place is good when it’s been long-standing yet the line is still constantly long. It’s totally not only the hype but people’s keep coming back. They do magic though behind that barista tables as the drinks are ready in a blink despite the crowd. Their podium winners are the Ube Butterscotch Cream Latte and Vienna Matcha, for which I went for the first one sans the ube to let the butterscotch flavor stood out. My preference was to stir it well before sipping to let the coffee, caramel-ly foam, and milk blended well. I did go for almond milk substitute and loved it. If there’s anything I could add to make it better I’d say extra espresso shot to balance the creaminess.

yeems is one of my favorite spots in koreatown, but decided to check out the gardena location on a weekday. parking lot was still packed, but inside felt surprisingly empty and the vibes were nice.🤎 there's street parking too! which is impossible to find in koreatown. honestly, i still prefer koreatown spot over this spot because of how they make their coffee and matcha there. the best part for this one is it's not crowded and there's plenty of FREE parking 🙌🚗🍵

Very tasty pastries, their Vienna latte is delicious. Lines are long but service is fast. Very cute and small coffee shop.

Finally got to go probably because I had a week day off. The line is usually wrapped around and now I know why. I got the Vienna Latte and it was amazing. Everything just blended so well and was not overly sweet(for me ha). I will def go again...its pricey but what coffee isnt nowadays. Treat yourself n support local shops and restaurants.

Tried the Vienna Latte and the Buttercream Latte, both were delicious!!! A little on the sweeter side. I did not try any food this time, but they had pastries available. The line was long, but my order came out quickly. The staff was kind and efficient. I would definitely crave this again! $7 per latte (alt milk) before taxes.

Went here on a Saturday morning before heading to the beach and there was a line wrapping outside the building. I do not recall how long we waited outside in line, but once we ordered inside, we got our drinks in less than ten minutes. I do not live near the area, but this place seems more of a grab and go than a Starbucks where you can take your laptop and do homework/work. The staff was ok. The Vienna latte was good and creamy. I did not really like the ube buttercream.

Amazing coffee, tea, and pastries. I absolutely love their House Vanilla latte and their Vienna Matcha! The customer service is excellent!

Yeems Coffee is a gem! The iced Vienna latte was incredible. It is the perfect mix of coffee and sweet, fluffy cream on top. I also tried the almond Danish and plain croissant, and both were fresh, buttery, and absolutely delicious. It’s a popular spot, so there can be a bit of a wait, but the cozy location and great quality make it totally worth it. Great vibe, amazing coffee, and pastries.

There's a reason why Yeem's coffee had a line wrapped around the corner and down Western Boulevard on New Year's Day! Quality baby!! My daughter treated me to a Yeem's coffee today. I had the rose flavored Matcha (10/10). When I say this is the best Matcha I've ever tasted...hands-down! Not grainy, very smooth and all you can taste is perfect Matcha and the hint of a beautiful red rose. Thank you to my sweet baby girl, and Yeem's, for the perfect Matcha in the new year. Cheers!

i always get the matcha latte with almond milk since i find the whole milk can overpower the matcha sometimes. i'll say that the matcha isn't super consistent, some days are great and some days are meh.. still a great matcha option in gardena tho additional: the vienna latte and vienna matcha are really good dessert drinks, not a daily drink for me tho

The good: I tried the ube butter cream latte and peppermint mocha seasonal drink. I was pleasantly surprised that the ube wasn't too sweet or overpowering. I got a savory pastry (ham and cheese croissant) here that was pretty good. The coffee drinks were smooth and easy to drink. I liked that they had seasonal flavors and a straight forward menu. It looked like they had a lot of fresh pastries delivered from somewhere. The bad: The inside felt a bit dingy and less vibey than other coffee shops. There were lots of scuff marks on the walls and furniture. There aren't a ton of spots to sit at both indoors and outdoors. I think they could benefit from more decor, music, or a more distinct theme. The interesting: They have a 2nd location in LA.

- Saw the hype and saw the line - Did I still get in it? Yes Drinks - Wanted the unique vienna matcha with the pretty colors - All the foams have dairy - Decided to get a regular matcha and strawberry matcha - Could taste the matcha but wished it was stronger Location - Minimal seating inside - Parking lot available

Came for our first time here, got the best rated drink on their menu which is the Vienna latte. At first sip I was not a fan but I realized when you mix it through it was perfect! It's small inside but seems more of a grab and go place. The service was great, everyone there was super friendly. I will definitely be back for something else to try!

I must have passed this coffee shop at least 34 times before finally saying, "Okay, let's try it." And I'm so glad I did! My first visit, I ordered the Vienna Latte hot, and it was absolutely delicious. They only offer one size, but don't let that fool you--it's more than enough in that little cup. Honestly, I realized that's all I needed. On my second visit, I tried the Ube Buttercream Latte... listen-- you may wanna slap yo momma, lol this drink was that good. I asked the nice woman behind the counter what ube was, and she explained it's a sweet potato or yam. At that point, I didn't care if it was a unicorn's toe--it was amazing. I got it iced, and it was pure heaven. The customer service is excellent every time, the shop is always clean and welcoming, the bathrooms are spotless, and the parking is spacious and easy. I would go back 100 times without hesitation!

If you've been to the Ktown location, then this place needs no introduction. I'm glad to have a Yeems in Gardena now!! | v i b e | It is usually pretty busy on weekends, but I've been lucky enough to beat the rush every time I've visited. The workers are usually pretty nice too! There is limited seating inside, but I feel like most seats are usually occupied. I'm unsure of how comfortable I'd be working here because I'd feel bad for occupying seats for a long period of time considering how busy it gets. | d r i n k s | They're known for their cream tops so you can't go wrong with any of their viennas. I usually get the vienna black or vienna latte with oat milk. Heads up, their cream top is dairy-based! I'm lactose intolerant, but ordering the latte with oat milk helps reduce my dairy consumption a tad? LOL. If you're looking for something sweeter and more decadent, the buttercream latte is a good option. I'm always tempted to try their ube buttercream latte because I love ube, but the vienna is too good to not get when I visit. Also, I'm picky with my matcha, but I believe theirs is quality. It's very vibrant in green color and strong in flavor. | t l ; d r | 10/10 no notes. One of my fave cafes in the SoCal!!

I was passing through the area and I noticed a coffee spot that I wanted to try. It was Yeems! I went inside and it was a little crowded, but the wait wasn't long. The ambiance was upbeat, as there were plenty of people seated and on laptops or just hanging out after a long day. I ordered an Ice Vienna latte and it was delicious! It had a foam top and it wasn't too sweet, but It still had that beautiful taste of espresso. You can also get it sweetened if you like. I will be back when i'm in the area, Because there are a few more drinks I would like to try.

Loved the ube buttercream latte. You can even adjust the sweetness level. Their ube is served year round so you don't have to worry about it being a seasonal drink like other places. There's a decent amount of seats and tables inside. Parking isn't too bad either.

I had heard a lot of about Yeems and found myself in the area and decided to give it a try. We ordered the Vienna Latte and the Vienna Matcha -- both were absolutely delicious! The matcha in particular impressed me as I've found that all too often when I order a matcha it comes out waaayy too sweet but that was not the case here. Will definitely be coming back!

So yummy and unassuming! In a quiet location but definitely worth the drive. Authentic, incredible lot velvety matcha. I'm literally hardly ever in the area unless it's for food or coffee shops, and Yeems is now a must-stop when I'm in Gardena. The shop itself was pretty busy too which is always a good sign!

This place opened up recently here in Gardena, and from my understanding there's a location in LA. Came here at about 7:30 am on a Saturday, and wow! This place already has a line. The service is fast though, so we didn't have to wait too long. We ordered a ham and cheese croissant and hot latte. Both were good! The place is smaller, only having a couple tables (though we were able to get one at this time), so it's more of a grab-n-go situation.

I'm glad I was able to try this spot for some coffee while in the South Bay. I got the Ube cream and another specialty coffee (the name escapes me) for my husband. The drinks were absolutely delicious and was exactly the sweet treat that I needed to jumpstart my weekend. I would definitely come back here!

Their Vienna coffee is excellent, the apple Danish is delicious and the restroom is clean. Yeems always comes through when I'm in the area!

Vienna 10/10 , I asked for half sweetness and it was perfect. I ordered ahead for faster service Definitely would go again

Super yummy coffee shop that opened in Gardena. Their coffee is pretty strong. They also have selection for kids such as strawberry milk. Matcha strawberry wasn't bad! Can't wait to try their coffee next time as my friends had it.

One of my fav spots in LA so far. We stumbled upon this place looking for an asian style coffee shop as I always feel they do cafes the best and man was I right. While it was weirdly busy and had a line going out the door and around the building, the line didn't take ridiculously long for how many people were there. However there was nowhere to sit and we were always in someone's way which made the experience not so enjoyable. But the drinks were well worth it. We tried their most popular coffee, which was insanely creamy, sweet, and just good/nothing like I've had before. It was quite decadent and took me awhile to drink, but was like a treat. I almost would've liked it slightly less sweet but it was really good. We liked it so much we got back in the long line to try the matcha because it looked so incredible. As expected, with the cream top it was so good and we couldn't wait to come back again in the future. Parking was easy as they have a shared lot, just expect a long line during usual busy hours and take it to go.

Been in a fan of Yeems since I tried it in Ktown and certainly have been missing out not knowing they have another outlet in Gardena.

The hype is real. This place is good! IMO, it's the best coffee and matcha spot in the South Bay. Lines are usually out the door but moves quickly. Highly recommend the Vienna Latte and Vienna Matcha.

Such great Vienna lattes! Their homemade cream is unlike any other cream topping I have had. They're very efficient and staff is friendly. They have a bit of seating and free parking.

Yeems is a great addition to the SouthBay coffee community. If you consider Gardena part of the SouthBay of course LOL I've been here a couple of times now and love it. There Flat White is 5Stars!! Rich and creamy served at the perfect temperature for drinking. So many places serve it to hot. Also if you order it to drink there you will be served in a ceramic cup. That always elevates the experience and makes he drink taste better :) The staff/baristas are very friendly and nice to have some conversation with if it's not to busy :) I have been coming in around 11am and there is very little line. But if you plane on coming in on a Sat or Sun be ready to wait because the line is usually out the door. But it is that good ;) It's a small/medium size shop with limited seating inside and no seating outside. The shop decor is simple and everything is kept neat and clean. Yeems is located in a strip mall filled with a variety of restaurants. (I recommend CM Chicken ;) There is a private parking lot but it can fill up on the weekends. Street parking is available and can be more convenient.

Came by for some coffee on early Sunday morning. Parking is easy. There is a short line when we got there. This place has a few tables inside the store. We ordered ube butter cream latte and Vienna matcha latte. Ube buttercream latte: decent flavor of ube. It was not overly sweet. Vienna matcha latte: one of the yelpers recommended to not mixing the drink or else it will be too thick. I tried to drink it without mixing, and it was tasteless. The drink tastes better after I mixed it. The texture of the drink was not thick after I mixed it. Price was on the pricy side.

This place is poppin! I heard they are always busy making coffee when there is a line and WITHOUT a line! People are always coming in so the workers are constantly working. This was also on a Wednesday morning too. There is plenty of parking given there are several other restaurants in the area. Despite their large number of customers, it wasn't too noisy. I didn't have to shout to have a conversation. Big plus. I got the Vienna latte (hot) and it was really good. I'd get it again but I'm curious to try other drinks from this place. My partner got the matcha latte with their foam on top. It was really good. That foam makes the biggest difference because I ordered it without any initially. Without the foam top it is just a regular matcha latte, so I highly recommend getting it with this drink. Would come again!

Ive been to both Yeems in Ktown and Gardena and had a better experience at this location! This location has convenient parking and less people waiting. I came on a sunday afternoon. Their matcha einspanner was one of the best ive ever had. However it was disappointing to see that matcha was premade in a container. Regardless, the matcha still tasted high quality.

Keep it simple, and just order the specialty drinks! Vienna latte, Vienna matcha, and ube buttercream latte are my three favorites. Depending on what you feel like drinking these three drinks can pretty much handle all your cravings. Get the Vienna latte if you want that coffee latte taste, and go with the matcha if your feeling like tea latte mood. The ube buttercream is just a more adventurous flavor journey with a combination of coffee and ube sweet potato combination. The line is usually out the door on weekends, but it moves pretty fast. I always drop by when I am getting food in the area.

I felt like Newjeans because after one taste, I said OMG. I was in LB for a Yelp event and I drove here, some freeway driving and some street driving. That Sunday morning was calm and quite but when I arrived, there was so many people inside the café. The latte was so subtle and every drop had the flavor I came for. The bathroom was well kept so that was a plus. The parking lot was a good size since it is in a plaza, and the parking was free. The service was good, they had a few staff working at the time, and my order came out fast considering the amount of customers they had. I will do a review update after a few more visits, I think highly of this place even if I am not in the area much.

there's nothing to say except: GET THE UBE BUTTERCREAM LATTE. I'm still thinking about it a week later. i think they're best known for their vienna latte, and while it's also good, the ube was my clear winner. there was a line of 7 or so ahead of us, but all things considered, it moved pretty quick. they were well-staffed and very efficient. there's some seating inside, but it's limited, so we just took it to go. will definitely be back next time i'm in town.

Tried Yeems for the first time w / some friends and we all got the Vienna Matcha! $7.75 for the drink but I was pleasantly surprised with the quality. You could definitely taste the strong matcha flavor although it wasn't bitter or anything. Their matcha is relatively strong and I felt energized the entire day. If you go earlier in the day there's not much of a line, but recommend avoiding peak traffic.

This was my third time at YEEMS now and after trying another one of their specialty drinks (I had the Vienna Matcha the first time), I can confidently say this place is valid, even though most people know this! FREE PARKING right outside in the lot! It's located in a complex so there are other restaurants nearby to check out. Expect a line at their peak hours, and not too many seats available but about 3 tables for 2-3 people each, a small couch area, and a seating area for a group up to 4-5 towards the front. There is a gender-neutral bathroom. VIENNA MATCHA-- 10/10 creaminess, fresh and clear matcha, not overly sweet on the sugar, very well balanced! UBE BUTTERCREAM MATCHA-- 8/10 I was nervous for this one but I was satisfied! Good boost of caffeine, only thing is it turned my tongue and teeth kind of dark so wouldn't drink if you are on a first date or have a meeting to attend right after. The staff was actually very kind to answer questions I had about this drink. It was not too sweet at all, well balanced in flavor for me, although my friends thought it just tasted like coffee (they are not big coffee people or ube people but I do and I liked it!) The store is pretty clean and you can tell the staff work efficiently and meticulously

I have gone to its original location in Koreatown, but it was my first time here in Gardena. I was just getting some pastries in the next plaza and stumbled upon this place, so I stopped by to get a drink. Vienna Latte is what they are known for, and I have tried it, so I decided to get a Buttercream Latte with almond milk. I was hesitating between Buttercream and Matcha, but I am currently a bit sick of getting matcha drinks, haha. Anyway, it took a while to get my drink. I kept looking at the watch because I have to go to work, but their service was sooo slow. There were more than 5 people working, so I honestly don't understand why it took so long. Then I got my drink, and it was decent. To be honest, I couldn't really tell the difference from Vienna. I honestly don't know much about coffee, so I may be wrong, but it tasted nothing different since most of the drinks these days have a similar cream top concept. Anyway, if it wasn't for the slow service, I would give them another chance, but I don't want to worry about being late to work even though I came in early, and also my drink was not too special. The cafe is not too small, with about 4-5 tables with minimum decor. They also have a plenty of parking in the plaza, including street parking.

Hot vienna coffee was nothing too special and their roast was just alright, pretty standard coffee and nothing stood out. Got clumps at the bottom of my iced vienna matcha, i felt that there was not enough matcha flavor and that it was very much diluted by milk. The sweat cream by itself tastes very good though and I enjoyed that. Seating: pretty limited, I remember there being 4-6 tables for groups of 2-4

Decent parking lot and drinks were made quickly. There was a small line out the door, but after I ordered there was a line around the corner. So it definitely depends on timing. The shop is small but is bigger than the LA store. There are some more tables and more standing room. The drinks seemed pretty consistent although I haven't been back to the LA location in awhile. I'm glad there's one in this area tho!

Husband and I ordered their Vienna Latte and our toddler had a hot chocolate! Also ordered their chocolate pound cake and we really enjoyed everything! Will definitely be back when I'm the area!

This was my third time visiting Yeems, and I've consistently ordered the Strawberry Matcha. It perfectly balances the fruity flavor of strawberries with the earthy, slightly bitter notes of matcha green tea. It was incredibly delicious, and I think I finished the entire drink in just 2 minutes. I opted for less sweetness and almond milk, which provided the ideal level of sweetness without being overpowering. I also ordered the iced Vienna latte, and from the very first sip, the flavor was a delightful mix of coffee and cream. Once I stirred in the cream, it only got better. Additionally, during my previous visits, there was always a line out the door, but this Monday around 10:30, I was pleasantly surprised to find no line at all. By the way, they also offer an online ordering option. The service was impressively quick, the staff were friendly, and there were at least 6 people working, which is quite rare these days. Overall, I continue to be impressed with this place because they provide high-quality drinks and have a wonderfully friendly atmosphere.

I was convinced by my neighbor to try this place again, so I did. And I have updated my score to a 4 :) I got the matcha Vienna latte and it tasted much better if you stir the cream into the drink.

First time trying the ube buttercream(half sweet) and it was fantastic! Would get again!!

Ahhhhh, new spot unlocked in Gardena! This plaza has so many yummy spots I want to visit too but the matcha had the perfect amount of sweetener for someone who always gets unsweetened matcha lattes lol. I want to come back for their other Vienna drinks!! I also got the cheese danish but that was kind of interesting because I think it might have had raisins in it? Idk, but still good The ambiance? Man it was so cold in there there are some tables for 2 people each max & then 2 solo sofa chairs!

Keep forgetting to do my review for this place. Originally, first heard about this place when it was only the LA location. Then this one opened and we've been a few times. Glad it's closer now. Parking might be a little tricky seems as though everyone wants to come. And since it's really busy can get crowded and might be a wait. From the last time we came drinks were still decent.

Excellent customer service. Get here early if you need to be somewhere. Waiting in line seems to be the only reason it takes long to get your drink. Other than that, the second you place your coffee order it usually takes about 5-6 min. to get your drink. This place is a good place to get in and out. I don't find it esthetically pleasing to the eye in terms of wanting to stay there at a table for catching up on anything in life. This place seems to be very busy as it has been the last 3x I've been here. Not exactly a place to sit down and do homework. Drinks are solid. Customer service is great. Sitting down at a table enjoying the coffee...not really the place, in my opinion.

One of the best spots Now we made this spot a Saturday go to !!! Saturday morning after our morning activities we be there 3 times out of the month !!!!

always pop into this coffee before heading to work ! located in a small plaza so parking might be a little tricky. i usually go early in the morning or lunch during weekdays so it's never bad. staff are so warm and friendly! love their vibe, would want to be besties with them i ordered the matcha einspanner which is so good! matcha was strong and was not diluted by the cream. definitely not too sweet also highly recommend checking this place out :))

Went on a weekday around 1:45pm; there was a line and it was pretty busy inside! It moved reasonably and my drink was out in under 10 minutes. I got the Vienna matcha, which is one of their more popular drinks! The matcha was good, but nothing outstanding. More on the bitter side, which I liked. The sweetness came from the cream top, which I also liked! It added a nice sweetness and creaminess to balance the matcha latte by itself. Glad I got to try and I did like it but probably not something I'd crave.

Solid coffee spot! I've visited both the Ktown and this location several times, and I've always enjoyed my drinks. I've tried the Vienna latte and Vienna matcha latte, which are lattes with cream on top. They run a bit too sweet for my liking, but are perfect for people who like sweeter drinks. This location has lots of seating and parking! Service is always friendly, and the pastries are great too.

My sister picked up coffee for us at Yeems. I ordered an Americano with no ice to be enjoyed the next day. It's strong and I diluted it a bit, so that's good. My sister got the Vienna and matcha lattes and she thought it was good and well worth the trip. Overall a solid coffee shop. Casual. Please come and create your own adventure.

Honestly, I was sold on trying this chain as soon as I saw photos of the Ube buttercream latte. I walked in, quickly ordered it, and received it within a few minutes. It was as delicious and delectable as expected. Completely worth the visit! From the multiple times I've gone, the baristas are so sweet and welcoming! I've never really had to wait long to order or to wait for my drink. They may be busy, but they are quite fast and efficient! Some times I'll just take my order and go, but other times seating is available and I'll work from the cafe for a bit. They don't have a lot of seating, but it's great for smaller parties, and groups of 2-4 people. I recently had their matcha scone and iced matcha strawberry latte. The matcha scone was fantastic! Just a perfectly crumbly scone with delicious matcha icing. The matcha strawberry latte was okay. I could definitely tell the matcha was pre-made, but it was still good overall. Would rather go somewhere else for matcha and stick to coffee here. The Ube buttercream latte is absolutely worth it!

Yummm!! I love Yeems one of my favorite coffee places. I really like the buttercream latte but I feel like all the drinks are hits. They have a good amount of tables inside. The pastries are also really good as well! A solid spot for coffee

Vienna Latte - cream top girlie here. This is about my most favorite iced latte near me. Do yourself a favor and do not mix the cream and latte together, unless you want it to taste like a milkshake. I usually ditch the straw and personally prefer to just drink the latte from the cup with a little bit of cream with each sip. my bf has tried the ube buttercream latte and the strawberry matcha. He said both were good. Line is usually out the door but wait time is about 10 minutes after ordering. Nothing special about ambiance, the seats are usually filled so you have to stand around to wait for your drink(s).

Ube Buttercream and Vienna Matcha both get a 10/10. Both drinks are equally as good and I would come back to get them again. The buttercream is sweet and salty and the ube is the perfect combination. The matcha is also very good quality and pairs well with the sweet cream.

I've visited Yeem's coffee twice now, and I have to say, I'm impressed! I tried both the iced Vienna latte and the hot, and while the ice version was good, the hot Vienna latte stole the show for me. It is hands-down, more flavorful and has a rich, satisfying warmth that just hits differently. I can't wait to have another hot Vienna latte on my next visit.
