Enjoyed this beautiful Zen space, coffee is great, interior is calming.

Over-hyped. The quality of the coffee has gone downhill since they opened. Their espresso tastes like burnt beans, the latte tasted like diluted chocolate milk, not coffee. Their trash cans were overflowing, and a line out the door tells me bad management and understaffed.

Coffee was pretty good, but one server kept chatting with her friend and forgot other customers’ drinks. I was one of them who were left waiting for a long time even I had asked for my coffee again and again.

The matcha latte seemed to be the play. I got the iced latte and it was fine - i tasted nice roast. Slightly expensive but I’d say that’s the price of entry for the people watching.

I've had there bon bon and cream top and both are delicious!! The bon bon is espresso with a thick sweet cream on top. The cream top is a cold brew with the a sweet cream on top. Highly recommend!

Very good coffee. We had caffe latte, cortado and a slice of banana bread. I wish they had more pastry options (there was little to choose from) however the banana bread was really great.

My sisters asked for two iced vanilla lattes and I asked for a hot oatmilk latte and the girl taking our order didn't care to listen to us even though we double checked with her and she made the opposite of what we asked for. When we asked them to remake the drinks, they gave us a lot of attitude and continued to not listen. The oatmilk latte tasted great, but the iced vanilla lattes were mid. We noticed they were much nicer when a white woman went to order her drinks :) wouldn't come back.

Fun third wave coffee shop with a fancy department store hidden in the back. I don't know if the two are related, but it's fun to visit both.

Coffee was okay. Pastries were good. Space was nice and open, but tables were dirty. The employees don’t have the best attitudes, which ruined the entire experience. Don’t think I would visit again.

Parking for the art district location can be very tricky.. it is in an industrial area, with mostly street parking. Nonetheless, the coffee here is definitely worth all the trouble. We ordered the espresso set and cream top, if you are planning to stay for a little bit, be sure to tell the barista that your order is for here so they’ll serve your coffee in a nice little cup! :)

In case you get lost, it’s next to a strip club! Love the Crème Top. It’s an iced coffee with heavy crème on top, refreshing and keeps me awake on long drives through LA.
