Bada, Coffee — Restaurant in Torrance

Bada coffee was on my "hot and new" list, and it definitely didn't disappoint! Located in an end corner of a plaza, there’s a lot of parking, which is nice.

The interior is beautiful, modern, bright, and really well-designed. The only small note is the seating setup, which consists of high-top counters and one large communal table in the corner—be prepared to potentially share that big table if it gets busy. We arrived early, so it was calm, but the to-go orders were already steady!

We ordered their specialties, the Matcha Cloud and the Spanish Latte. My Matcha Cloud was delicious, perfectly creamy and smooth. My husband's Spanish Latte was equally wonderful, smooth and nicely cinnamony. Both drinks were a great!

We also tried the turkey cheese and mushroom croissants. We asked for them to be heated, and they were very good—they reminded me of the pastries at Nook.

If you love the drinks at Nook or Yeems, this spot is absolutely on par with them, but without the headache of a long line. I would definitely rather come here for my specialty coffee fix! Highly recommend you check...

They also have delicious pastries that temp in the display case while ordering. There is seating in the courtyard outside the umbrellas and also some seating inside. The vibe is very relaxed and it is a great patio to sit and enjoy the beautiful weather. The location is in the Ralph's shopping center just west of the...

Update: I came back recently and tried the Matcha Cloud—and it was just as impressive as the Fog Coffee. It has the same smooth and creamy texture, but with a clean, high-quality matcha flavor that’s not too sweet or overpowering. It felt well-balanced and refined, just like the Fog.

Both the Fog and Matcha Cloud have this soft, luxurious texture that’s rich but never heavy. They’re now my go-to drinks here, and every time I order one, someone nearby asks what I got—so I figured it was worth sharing a photo and recommendation.

If you’re visiting Bada Coffee, I highly recommend trying one (or both). These drinks are simple, elegant, and...
