    The independent chain, known for its 100% organic coffee, and cafes hippie-ish vibe, roasts its own beans and was one of the first certified organic roasters in Southern California.

    It is so small. Good for take-away. You can go to the one which is bigger at the end of Rose avenue

    Don't come if you're in a rush. Local joint with chatty staff. Which is probably great if you aren't in a rush.
