Great coffee and espresso

Great, great, coffee!

The lattes are almost too artfully made to drink at times... but the best coffee drink is awaiting you with the first sip!

patience is a virtue here... crazy lines, but the coffee's worth the wait (or at least I tell myself that)

I bet you're standing in a line right now for some coffee or tea here. Be assured, that it's worth the wait. Great lattes!

Coffee is good if you’re willing to deal with the bullshit service

Every morning should start here! One of the few reasons I would live in LA, Venice that is :)

I dig the Soy Latte (no foam:) and a Chocolate Croissant, but, everything here is exeptionally good ~ Enjoy it!
Beatriz CastilloJanuary 6, 2015
Very hipster place. It was too crowded for my taste, we had to be wait in line for about 30 min or so, and we didn't even like our coffee that much.

Iced latte👍

Order the Angeleno- it's not on the menu. It's an iced latte shaken with simple syrup. Frothy and a little sweet. Mmm

Good morning . Coffee
Josef SzottenJanuary 22, 2016
Waaaaaay to pretentious. Super busy, laptops everywhere. The coffee was good but the ambiance - not so much. It's better in NYC
Treysi BaronAugust 2, 2015
Try pumpkin chocolate loaf cake ☕🍰

A Venice Beach must! Their cappuccinos are perfect.

Scandia got me hooked on the Gibraltar. If you love their cappuccino, this is the next step.

For no lines and a completely different vibe come here at night. They stop serving at 8pm, but wont force you out until a quarter till 9.

almond milk latte is amazing

Intelligentsia has no power outlets for customers. Screw this place and go across the street to Toms (coffee is fantastic).

Ask for the Burundi espresso instead of the regular black cat for a great flavor. The maple scone is best I've ever had too.
Boris 🌐 van HoytemaMay 21, 2013
Extremely hipster (staff wears fedora's) but insanely good coffee.
Irais MonroyNovember 3, 2014
Everything is just perfect, but the "We're Sorry, Dogs not allowed" :(
Alex SnyderDecember 16, 2015
Chai Latte is amazing!
electrobabeMay 11, 2016
so super hipster, don't know if I love or leave it
Neilan TyreeMarch 11, 2010
Love this place. Went for the first time with fantastique CD/producer Christianne. "Ahhhh," I thought. "I really AM back on LA. The part I like best, in fact!" Going again today.
Norbert HuMay 29, 2012
Order the affogato. Or as I pronounce it, avocado. It's amazing!
Kat 🐱October 22, 2016
Free Wi-Fi but no power outlets. Not the best place for working.

The way coffee should be. Hands-down the best coffee in Los Angeles.

If you want orientation of the menu and service you'll be struggling!

Cold brew Angelino, I'm still in love. I always want to be a bully and cut in line. That's my fantasy.

Great space and excellent coffee!

Ask the baristas for tips on home brewing. They are in the know.
