The Dirty Penguin
Coffee⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Vibe⭐⭐⭐⭐
The Dirty Penguin is a friendly coffee shop located in Chino Hills, east of Los Angeles. Simple and relaxing design with greenery delight with the signature pink logo. I’m obsessed with their creative special coffee menu, especially “the penguin” coffee. It doesn’t really have much outdoor seating, however, it has plenty of parking spaces around. Very nice little coffee shop to stop by when you’re in the area.

Memorylook Coffee
Coffee⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Vibe⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Memorylook is a cultural shift in collaborating with the world of coffee and fashion. I ABSOLUTELY love their unique signature lattes.

My No.1 favorite coffee shop in Los Angeles and would definitely visit more often when I’m in the area.

Bonus: Tierra Mia Coffee – West Covina
Coffee⭐⭐⭐⭐
Vibe⭐⭐⭐⭐
A stylish chain serving Latin-inspired coffee drinks made with house-roasted beans, plus pastries. A unique new coffee shop chain with a fast drive-thru. Love the high-ceiling windows all around and it opens until 12 AM. Definitely, the to-go option if you’re looking for a place to study or work at night. The only thing is, the music is too loud and pumping.
Address: 2301 S Azusa Ave, West Covina, CA 91792
