About Good Intentions Coffee
Good Intentions Coffee is a coffee shop in Los Angeles at 6363 Wilshire Blvd Ste 101, set in a small pink space with a wall of photos of visiting dogs. Dogs are welcome inside, so visitors can bring their own along. The menu runs to 51 items. Classic espresso drinks and matcha lattes sit next to specialty drinks, including the Bad Apple Matcha, which combines hot apple cider with matcha, and chamoy espresso drinks. Seasonal additions and experimental flavors rotate onto the list. A small pastry case holds a butter croissant and a chocolate chip cookie, and there is no full food menu. The shop is open Monday to Saturday, daytime only, and closed on Sundays.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the espresso tonic, called perfectly balanced, with one praising a chamoy version and another a citron one. Close behind is the bad apple matcha latte, described as a perfect mix of hot apple cider and matcha, along with a chamoy apple latte that one reviewer credits to the shop's willingness to experiment. Classic drinks earn praise too, including cappuccino, cafe latte, hot cocoa, cold brew, and espresso, while a chocolate chip cookie and a flaky butter croissant come up from the small pastry case. The staff and owner are repeatedly called kind and friendly, and the atmosphere is described as warm and cozy, though one reviewer calls the space a little small. The main caveat is consistency. One reviewer found the espresso excellent on a first visit but very average on a second, wondering if the machine needed cleaning. Another thought the vanilla latte was good but wished for more flavors, such as a Spanish latte. A wall of photos of visiting dogs, where one reviewer's cavapoo is proudly featured, rounds out the welcome.

“The most important element to me when reviewing a coffee shop is the coffee. Good Intentions serves up 5-star coffee drinks. The first sip gave me that wow feeling and brought a smile to my face. The service was courteous and a peaceful. The atmosphere was bright and what you’d expect at a small coffee shop. It’s definitely a spot to put it on your coffee shop rotation list.”

“Was staying next door for a work trip. I’m not sure there could be a more perfect coffee shop. The crew inside was so excited about coffee and different creations and making something you’d love. I’ll come back next time I’m in the area.”

“Walking into good intentions, I felt the warm atmosphere. I love the pink hues all around. I got a vanilla latte and a butter croissant. The coffee is good; however, I wish they had more flavors. I was hoping they had a Spanish latte. A very classic flavor. The croissant was flaky and buttery. I am not sure if I would come back.”

“This delightful place is just next to the AC Marriott Beverly hills and is awesome. The espresso tonic with citron was actually insane! Staying here for a few more days so won't be my last brew here!”
