ashtonJune 14, 2010Need a really fantastically brewed cup of coffee or a delish espresso drink, I'll see you here. Especially on First Fridays on Abbot Kinney!- AshleyMay 7, 2011Much preferred to the Silver Lake location. A perfect shot of espresso without a side of pretension is just my cup of tea.
Gina M.L.September 22, 2011They treat coffee the way it deserves to be treated. Try the Kenya Gichathaini...amazing.
If you can't find a seat you might have better luck at the Tom's coffee bar across the street- Slow Bar at the back coffee bar weekdays 8am-2pm. Skip the line, grab a seat, prepare to be treated by a barista!
HemangAugust 7, 2011The lines may be long but the coffee makes your day! Get the Angeleno if you want to try something new!
Apparently these guys don't allow you to have your dog on the patio. You have to tie them up on the street...
This is quality coffee with a total experience you can't rush through. The line and wait are worth it!
The iced Angelina or the machiato are amazing, but you can't go wrong with anything from Intelligentsia.
Tal SafranDecember 10, 2013This place is such a scene, not worth your time or money. Go to Abbot's Habit on the next block and support a real coffee shop.
Lauren GSeptember 5, 2011Great coffee...but be aware they don't offer any skim/non-fat milk if that's what you usually add to your mug.
PRO-KedsApril 20, 2011Delicious coffee, delicious pastries. Get a coffee, walk on Abbot Kinney and enjoy your day
Jess NikolaiNovember 27, 2010The hot chocolate here is amazing, unlike any other I've ever had. The mocha powder at the end of the cup is the best part. ;)
The Angeleno is a cold, sweet espresso drink with two shots.
Allison GarlickDecember 7, 2011a caffeinated experience! The staff is so knowledgable when it comes to all things coffee.
Peter CoopersmithNovember 14, 2013If you like your coffee made with disdain and condecention...this is the place for you!
get a double shot of black cat espresso. doctor it with raw turbinado sugar. stir for a while. drink, then finish with the short glass of sparkling water the barista provides.
