    What a community-focused spot! Walk inside and you'll see two rooms filled with fair-trade goods…read morefrom jewelry to clothes to cards. In one room is a small cafe that sells coffee and other drinks with a few tables. The chai latte I ordered was delicious! After I ordered, I browsed the store as I waited for my latte.

    For the most part, this is a charming little coffee and gift shop, and I really wanted to enjoy the…read moreexperience. Unfortunately, the way our group was treated over seating left a very bad impression. We arrived as paying customers and simply wanted to sit together. Instead, the barista repeatedly told us where we could and couldn't sit. First we were directed to one side, then the other. We were told we shouldn't use the large table because "maybe someone with a computer MIGHT show up." Then another area was suddenly off-limits because "something might happen." Ultimately, it felt like the only acceptable option was squeezing our group into a corner near the trash cans. I understand that the shop has a philosophy behind designated laptop/no-laptop areas, and that's perfectly reasonable. What wasn't reasonable was making a group of paying customers feel as though there was literally nowhere they were welcome to sit because our presence might somehow disrupt the intended seating arrangement. It was 90 degrees outside, or we would have sat there. Policies are one thing; hospitality is another. A coffee shop should be able to maintain its atmosphere and guidelines without making customers feel like an inconvenience simply for showing up as a group. Cute shop, but the seating experience and attitude toward our group were unnecessarily frustrating and unwelcoming.

    Before we sat down to have a cup of coffee at Colada Shop, we were walking around some of the…read morestores on this strip of Mosaic District when Kimi was like, "We gotta go into this store, I think you guys will really love it." And I'm certainly not one to say no to shopping... and Kimi knows me pretty well - so in we went. In this adorable little shop you'll find a bit of everything: From chic baby toys and gear, to Women's athletica, adorable spice recipe kits, dog treats, jewelry, natural deodorant, candles and so much more that I'm forgetting. The store is immaculately designed. As soon as you walk in, you feel like you're in a higher end boutique - but it's also not stuffy at all like some places. It's just highly curated with interesting unique products, and could be the absolute best place for stocking stuffers, small gifts, making a gift basket and also obviously splurging on yourself. I ended up getting some natural dog treats for the pup, and I almost splurged on some fancy balsamic vinegar. This splurge was for the pup, the next time I come in the splurge will be for me lol. Definitely worth stopping in. If you're someone who LOVES getting little treats and surprises for your friends and family this could be the perfect spot. The mix is eclectic and Kimi pointed out that they even sell this soap that was gifted to us for Latinx heritage month as it's a Latin owned soap company. I feel like it's the apothecary David would open if he was a woman.

Everything they feature is ethically-sourced and sustainably obtained. AND OH so cute. I could spend forever smelling all the candles, delighting over the handmade jewelry, perusing their cookbooks, picnic blankets, baby rain boots and so much more. This is the perfect place to grab a special gift for a friend and reminds me of those cute, indie boutiques that are on every corner in LA. I hope this shop stays around for a long time.
