Chimney Coffee House

Was subjected to watching multiple people come in and order from the register but I had to order off of my phone for convenience. Came with my friend and he got to order from the front, whilst I watched him eat and wait for my order. First time in LA. Awful morning so far.

Drove here based on lovely pic of outdoor seating (because of having the pup with us).
It is misleading - looks nothing like the photo - no trees no fencing. Just a car park.

Chimney C.H. is a small specialty coffee shop in Chinatown on N. Main and Llewellyn street. They opened back in 2010, on a small plaza, to serve the community with good coffee, breakfast/lunch food and pastries. Interior atmosphere was relaxing and inviting. It's inside has a spacious loft type of design with high ceiling, plenty of natural light, exposed brick wall, large vents, bose speakers and art wall paintings. Moreover, they have a small outdoor front patio for those who want fresh LA air. I came here early Friday morning before going to work and I ordered their brewed coffee and three stack pancakes. I liked their perfectly brewed coffee. Pancakes (with chopped pecan, butter cream and raspberry syrup) were really fluffy, soft and flavorful. However, they over did the rasberry syrup. Staff was nice, competent and professionl. Service was mildly fast. Prices were fair and within the market value. They offer delivery service. Free WiFi at slow speed mbps. Wish they upgrade the speed. Ample of parking in the plaza. Overall it's good place to hangout and drink coffee.

Nice place, with good and friendly service. The coffee was just average, and food portion is rather small and a little expensive. The building they're in wasn't that great or anything but they're close to downtown, maybe that's why their rent is expensive, thus their pricey items on the menu. Ample of parking in front of the building, but the entrance is one way. You can't go around the building and exit the other way.

It used to be good, but something changed in Nov. 2021 and now it's horrible. The cashier/barista is sooo rude! And nobody answers the phone. Go experience it for yourself. If you're there on a Sat, eat at the Thai food stand in the big parking lot instead, it's awesome!

Wow! What a great-find! This place seems to be in the middle of nowhere, but seriously, it’s hopping! And I can see why!

Their food choices on the menu were very unique and I like that some has Thai-touch to it like the Larb Burger. It’s quiet relaxing and laid back, not super crowded or not too fancy. It feels comfortable and laid back enough to just work on your stuff or to hang out with people.

Their mocha was well-balanced and delicious, and their pastries were exceptional!! Their guava croissant was so good and never seen in else where! Their other pastries looked enticing such as brownie croissant and matcha scone.

I got a grilled cheese with tomato soup. Tomato soup was on-point, the grilled cheese was overly greasy. But the sourdough bread was so good.

The chicken burger was so good and juicy!

Their service was good, especially the gentleman was uber kind. It was fairly clean and I enjoyed my visits here.

I’m going back to try their larb burger and the pastries!

Great little coffee shop with really fun ambiance, outdoor seating, and a Thai inspired drink menu.

Their cold brew is top notch, and the pastries looked good as well.

Tried this coffee shop before leaving to the airport. The food was delicious! The breakfast potatoes were so yummy and crunchy! Chicken and waffles were good too.

Really cool coffee spot with a roastery on-site. Very well priced with ample parking. I also ordered their crossiant which was perfectly balanced with layers and butter. 🥰🥰

This was my nightmare morning 🤮 my food was cold because I was waiting for my coffee more then 30 minutos unbelievable and Plus to this I received a bad actitud from the 2 ladies at the front just because I asked for my coffee And I’m not a bad person but may be they have to look for another job nothing to do with customer service
