Jurassic Magic Café is a great spot if you're looking for a spacious coffee shop with a relaxed…read morevibe. I stopped by early in the morning and ordered the Magic Latte--it reminded me of a vanilla latte but with a generous cinnamon kick. Since I arrived right after opening, finding street parking wasn't an issue. If you're visiting later in the day, parking may take a little more patience. The café has plenty of seating, making it a nice place to catch up with a friend or get some work done. I enjoyed my visit and would definitely come back to try more of their drinks.

if you're a matcha snob i recommend getting a coffee or skipping this place…read more matcha to milk ratio was off, still tasted great, just not a super strong grassy ceremonial grade iced matcha. staff was fine, wasn't super friendly. seems like a great place to bring a laptop and get work done though.

Nice coffee shop in Silverlake…read more Bright interiors, surprisingly large, lots of place to hang out and chat or get work done (free Wi-Fi)! Friendly baristas and their dessert selection is aces. We got the following drinks: HOJICHA LATTE CHOCOLATE HOJICHA DREAM Hojicha, apparently, is, smoked green tea, very tasty. I know that Silverlake has been gentrified, but the prices were still pretty shocking ($8 for a latte...$7 for a donut!)... thankfully they have a 50% Off happy hour for dessert. Not sure if you'll walk the eight fold path to nirvana, but you'll have a pleasant, caffeine-fueled afternoon...

It was a hot day so I debated whether to get my chai iced or hot. I went with iced but kind of…read moreregretted it because I could no longer compare it to other chais I've had which have always been hot. Somehow when it's iced it disguises the flaws - I've never had a bad iced chai. Hmmm... I wonder in the future if I could get two half cups - one hot, one iced? Anyway, their chai is brewed to order and it's housemade and really REALLY good. In case you can't tell I thought it was one of the best ever and I could taste the spices. The place had a nice interior and a nice vibe with a handful of tables and plants. It was a nice oasis and was relaxing in a borderline sketch neighborhood. The teens shared a mango pineapple smoothie that tasted fresh and homemade. It didn't have the typical Jamba flavor profile and that was a good thing.

Came here after a family brunch downtown to celebrate my mom's birthday--my girlfriend and I like…read moreto grab coffee as a "dessert," and this spot was within walking distance. About a quarter-mile walk later, we stumbled on an absolute gem. From the moment we walked in, the vibe was incredible. Great energy, unique artwork on the walls, and a really warm, inviting atmosphere. The staff was patient and friendly while we looked over the menu, and there's so much to take in--books to browse, cozy seating, and just an overall perfect setup for relaxing and having a good conversation. I ordered the dirty chai and it was excellent--honestly would've gone for a larger size if I wasn't still full from brunch. My girlfriend got an iced matcha (still working my way up to trying one myself), and she loved it. We didn't stay too long, but this is definitely a place we'll be coming back to. They also have food options, which I didn't get to try this time--so that just gives me another reason to return. Highly recommend if you're in the area.

Strawberry matcha tonic. YES!…read more Not something I would usually order but I needed something refreshing on a Friday afternoon. Friendly service. I saw a few bakery options, but at 4:00 pm they are mostly short stock. Vibe is very modern, warm and comforting. Chia pudding, yogurt parfait, pressed juices, premade wrapped burritos, of course, coffee and other matcha options. Not extensive menu but it needn't be. I'm sitting at 1 of 2 small tables outside. I'd much prefer to be inside than enjoying the sights and sounds of Spring Street, in full bloom with the smell of urine wafting in the air. But alas, my young son needs to be able to spot me outside (he's taking care of some business nearby) so I endure. But for sure, this tonic makes it all much easier!

For starters, parking here was fairly difficult though not a surprise in this area of town. The…read morestreets aren't exactly the most pleasant to walk around, but Mad Lab itself was a very calm escape from the outside craziness. I had a Chele Palmer (strawberry + coffee), and it was described as club soda with brown sugar, strawberry puree and espresso. The drink itself was an interesting, mad lab experiment indeed. I didn't enjoy it too much, but it indeed tasted as described. The puree didn't mesh well in the drink and sunk to the bottom. Without a straw, it's absent. With a straw, it was super sweet. There was definitely a carbonated coffee kind of taste. Item as described? Yes. Order again? Likely not.

Angelica, the owner and barista, is so sweet and makes sure every cup is made to perfection. She holds great conversation and knows what she's doing, she's a pro!

The man helping us was super kind and patient and offered a few recommendations; He said the iced vanilla latte was their most popular iced drink. Trusting his recommendation as well as the previous Yelp review, we ordered the iced vanilla latte and it was soooo yummy! He grinds the coffee beans right in front of you so you can see how fresh everything is. Pretty good prices too, a small is $5 and a large is $6.50. Thank you for a yummy morning coffee!

I've tried various types of their cool creations, but this past weekend I just went with the cold brew black.

Tried Whole & Oat on my first visit to Smorgasborg last weekend. I was hankering for some caffeine…read moreand their drinks looked gooood. I ended up just getting a traditional cappuccino with oat milk cause I didn't really want a bunch of sugar. Lovely latte art and the coffee was perfect, IMO. A+! The woman I spoke to and ordered from was also super helpful when my mom asked if she could find out if one of the drinks had a lot of sugar in it. She went the extra mile there and was so nice about it. I will definitely be back for the good coffee and service. They have a drink that looks like the space coffee from Disneyland so I'm definitely going to try that next time! I enjoyed sipping my Whole & Oat coffee while perusing all the various booths. Thanks!
