Wow! The barista here comes up with all of his own flavors and I’m so impressed!! This is a cute little spot that reminds me of cafés in New York. It’s definitely going to be a regular spot for me. I got the iced blueberry Matcha and it was one of the best Matchas I’ve ever had!! Y’all have got to come and try these unique flavors!! Only thing I’d say is the owner is kind of a major asshole, but don’t let him deter you from the great products.

Spent the weekend in LA downtown for a convention and tried out this coffee spot since it was close by. I was surprised at how amazing the matcha and coffee was here. The earl grey matcha was 10/10-not grainy/watery, super creamy. The owner also made us a blueberry lemonade that was off the menu and it was SO good. Stoped by 4 times over the span of two days. Would definitely recommend this to anyone in the area

This place screams LA in the best way possible. Think sun-soaked mornings, lo-fi hip-hop playing in the background, baristas with style, and locals pulling up on skateboards. The vibe is effortlessly cool — like Fairfax met Venice and opened a coffee shop. The coffee? Smooth, bold, and just the right amount of edge. The kind of spot where creatives brainstorm, skaters recharge, and mornings somehow feel lighter. You walk in for a latte, and end up staying for the energy. 100% a daily ritual if you’re lucky enough to live nearby.

I was genuinely surprised by this coffee shop. It’s always hard to tell whether specialty lattes are going to be over sweet or well crafted. This place puts time into crafting syrups themselves, while keeping the sweetness down in the recipes. There’s also a shop dog, which makes things even better. I highly recommend it.

Coffee was great (from the “kids” menu). Owner was blunt in the best way. But seriously… that portrait of the woman with the newspaper? Need to know where it’s from. Who’s the artist? Help me out.

A nice little coffee spot before getting on or getting off the train station. I just ordered a matcha latte with whole milk. The flavor was just right along with the right temperature and an overall excellent morning drink. The decor was cool with hip hop references and the marvel pack of cards for sale were a nice touch. I’d definitely come back again to try their other menu items.
