Silverback Coffee of Rwanda

Great Architecture and space - Coffee sucks - I ordered a triple shot cappuccino and no kick - delivered in a small paper cup - Staff not engaged - I prefer supporting local joints but always go back to STARBUCKS -

Vanilla bean latte is my favorite, not too sweet and just really good. Rose latte seems popular but it was just ok in my opinion. The coffee beans are great for pour overs at home.

Absolutely gorgeous ambience.. the hardwood floors make me nostalgic of being in a childhood home. Brick walls and plants are a nice touch. I love the little room in the back. Plenty of outlets and WiFi (which is not super fast at around 200kbps but good enough).

Their rose latte is SO good. Not too sweet, refreshing, but you can still taste the smooth creamy espresso.

Also try the Jen’s latte which is made with condensed milk. Not too sweet at all but has a decadent flavor.

Amazing! The coffee is rich without being too acidic, the shop is beautiful and clean, and the story behind the shop and mission of Silverback Coffee is touching. Highly recommend this small business and will definitely be back for some beans to go and a tasty cappuccino!

$6 pour over made with over roasted coffee that was nearly undrinkable. Honestly, if you’re going to charge $6 for a pour over, at least use high quality coffee. I was asked whether I wanted my pour over to be made with dark or medium roast. If I had paid $3.50 for the cup, okay. But when I pay $6 for a borderline undrinkable cup of coffee that I have to wait 20 mins for, I expect something unique and flavorful. Instead what I got was Starbucks quality drip coffee at Intelligentsia prices. Also had a muffin, which tasted like grease. I know these guys are new, but they need to either adjust their prices or drastically improve the quality of their coffee and pastries.

Great coffee. Only issue was when I went outside, tripped, drop my coffee went back inside ask for another coffee and got charged another five dollars. OK it was my fault but any other place would’ve given me a free coffee.
Not coming back, not recommending

This place is amazing. The profits really go to the women of Africa that work on the coffee farms. Learn the history by asking the employee, they will explain everything and there is a story of the background on the counter.

This is an incredible coffee shop. My new favorite in Echo Park! The quality is top notch and the staff is great. If you live in Echo Park please support this local business.

Best coffee we had in dtla

I love the coffee. Taste some special. I guess some people doesn't like that, but I like it.
