Groundwork Coffee Co.

They really need to do something about their disgusting rest room. Honestly, often times I have been tempted to pee or poop in their bushes, because their rest room totally creeps me out. Is their rest room ever cleaned? Ironically, a passcode is required to get in it, and it is still nasty.

Drinks are good here. Food is okay. Portions are kind of small. Dining area inside is huge because in the early 1900s and late 1800s? it used to be a train station. Parking is whacked. They have none of their own parking. They should just buy the enterprise rent a car lot adjacent to them for parking. They also did not want to purchase the public property on their lot or see about acquiring it for parking. It was recently renovated into public garden space which people have thrown their trash all over. Freakin' skanks. People get on my nerves. Have some respect for your environment. For parking, people are delegated to the annoying metered parking or spaces along the street which are always full. You usually have to park a quarter mile away. Weekly vegan festival is held across the street from them.

Just another over priced coffee shop nothing really spectacular about this place

I enjoy Groundworks coffee and would get it all the time while at work. I've encountered friendly staff and tasty beverages! I love their classic latte with hemp milk and the Horchata cold brew. (Also, daybreaker dope for a light bfast!)

But, a word of warning for a specialty drink that may not stick around long. The marzipan latte tastes mostly of peanuts. I love marizpan and was expecting a more sweet almond flavor. However, if you love eating peanuts than you might like the Marzipan latte.

Time is important. People plan there dally work activities with time . This coffee shop said opening time 6 am at Wednesday and I plan with coffee from this store but didn’t open.
I hade to catch the train . I only had 10 minutes. Can’t go somewhere..
If you are in public business, you need to serious about your work .
It might effect some other .

This place is at the beginning of the Redline and where the Orange line ends. great location for when you are traveling between the two lines to get a cup of coffee or a quick snack. The old style train station is very fitting for the connection of the two lines. There's no public restroom unless you purchase something.

Great iced matcha with oat milk. And Mikey is the GOAT!!!!! 🍵☺️

Real authentic & organic coffee options done well. Vegan pastries also available! (That's a plus!) Cool relaxed setting in a historic train station in heart of vibrant NoHo neighborhood.

Not much of a coffee drinker myself essentially since a vast majority of once more welcoming mom-and-pop coffee houses have all but been eradicated thanks to the monopoly that Starbucks holds over Los Angeles, themselves cold and indifferent places in-my-opinion. I'm happy to have found Groundworks Coffee Co. during one of my travels thru North Hollywood: it's an absolute nice change-of-pace from the usually cramp Starbucks with a large interior and equally spacious outside dining area, the staff were extremely friendly with me even as I only bought a cheap soda to quince my momentary thirst, and the prices were about the same and in several cases better / lower than Starbucks complete with nice food meals over the mini-snacks and lone breakfast sandwich of the previously mentioned. This review of mine is only my first impressions based on my first real visit there as I have passed by Groundworks on numerous occasions when taking the Orange Line Metro Buses which is located right next door to it and yet the presence of a sizable public transportation station doesn't diminish the pleasant ambiance of the restaurant. I am eagerly looking forward to revisiting this coffee house again very soon.

Oh my gosh this place is AMAZING!!!! THE FOOD AND COFFEE!!! If you go you have to try the Hemp milk in your coffee.....to die for! Very versatile menu...and everything I've tried has been amazing... and the Mexican mocha is great too...but get half the chocolate in there so it's not too sweet!

Never actually been to a Groundwork Coffee but after an experience on the road with a driver for them, I definately will never go. We were taking a left at a light and there was oncoming traffic coming. The driver being kept honking probably because I didn't scoot into the middle of the intersection, which by the way is illegal and fineable. When the traffic cleared I took a left and who comes zooming past me? A Groundwork Coffee van. Being a business is not only all about store reputation but brand reputation and because of this impatient driver, made you 3 less sales. But also imagine he does that every intersection creating a bad reputation for the company every block or two. Bad.
