Cafe Berlina

Found Berlina after waiting for a relative at UCLA imaging. Very charming coffee shop with an inviting ambiance. Food and decor show care and presentation of sandwiches is very appetizing.
The owner was as friendly as she was efficient but what I found most impressive was the care and attention that she provided to a gentleman who appeared to be homeless. She was patient with him and offered him a cup of drip coffee.
I loved the German theme and signs inviting guests to learn relevant German words. I can definitely attest that my mocha and the service were "lecker!"
Merci bien pour le super cafe et service!"

Was in the neighborhood and grabbed a coffee and a pastry. As is everything, it was a little more expensive than ideal. Having said that, the coffee was my kind of coffee. Light in flavor, not too nutty, but flavorful.

The lemon poppy seed cake was delish. Super lemony, I suspect a lot of sugar, but this time didn't mind it.

Stopped in about noon on a weekday, and immediately felt welcome. The space is charming and clean, the menu varies to a small degree, and food is brought in fresh. The prices are very good, considering the location; I was surprised, pleasantly. I also looked that they can accept cash.

I got an Americano, black, and a pastry with cardamom, the last one there. The coffee was just strong enough (an Americano is often too watery). The pastry was delightful, light, flaky, fresh, a nice mix of flavors without any one being overbearing.

I'm frequently at UCLA around the corner, and SGI Buddhist HQ a few blocks away, will definitely be back!

What a delightful cafe! Stopped by to try a latte. It was one of the best I've had in LA. The decor inside is so cute. Workers are nice. I will definitely be returning.

I'd say it's more like 3.5 stars.

Iced Bear latte 5/5 delicious oat milk based latte with a light hazelnut flavor. Just slightly sweet, creamy and flavorful. I'd get this again for sure.

Kouign amann 2.5/5 I am a kouign amann snob. It's my favorite pastry and this one was just okay. It was pretty dry inside. Not like a sweet, soft and dense core like it should. I wouldn't get theirs again.

Service was quick, kind and attentive. Meter street parking on Wilshire.

Cute and quaint cafe near the hospital on Wilshire.

Ordered two beverages for the road, both extra hot...
Mocha...3 stars. Comes already sweetened of which I'm not a fan. Lots of foam for a mocha.
Cappuccino...4 stars. Better but still mild

Space...4 stars. Bright and spacious inside. There's seating outside but limited on the sidewalk.

Cute place. Called Berlina because it's German vibes all day. I enjoyed the Berlin theme. I think this place may be more about the coffee than the eats. My mocha was absolutely delicious, so major props for that.

I passed on the $10 breakfast biscuit. The cinnamon bun was fancy looking and came recommended. Pretty and delicious. Just a little dry. They offer a selection of premade sandwiches. There's a café on the other side of Wilshire that looks better for lunch per se.

Very close to UCLA Health. It's just around the block. A good amount of indoor seating. One table out front with chairs, but with the Wilshire vibe dominating the mood.

Very pleasant visit to Cafe Berlina. Such a cute and quaint coffee shop with a German theme. When I walked in, there were a couple people enjoying baked goods and busy professionals coming and going. I ordered a dirty chai with almond milk and it was great. The chai wasn't super spicy, but the espresso in it was delicious. I got to taste one of the muffins and it was so fresh and flavorful. A lot of their baked goods look amazing. They also have some grab and go sandwiches. This place is great to grab a cup of coffee, or a quick lunch. Only a few small tables inside. When I was there, there was only one woman working so there was a little wait between ordering and getting our drinks because she was helping other customers. But despite being busy, the service was great. I recommend checking out Cafe Berlina if you are in the area! I loved all the small details here like the German steins.

Popped into this cute cafe after a morning workout across the street! The staff was so kind and suggested the Bear Latte - an oat milk hazelnut delight! The kouign amann was SO buttery and crispy (which they asked to warm up)! Will definitely come back to this spot to try the smoked salmon sandwich :)

I tried the Vanilla latte and the almond Cake. The coffee was great again not the best I have had so I can only give it a 4 for that reason. I like taste the coffee. I feel the coffee is on the lighter side so if you like that then it is great. The pastry was great. The over all rating I would say a 4.5 so I would have to give it 4. The service was good not superb.
