The main thing that stands out here is their 1987 coffee roaster which is the center piece of the cafe. They roast various single origin beans on a daily basis, so you know you can purchase some fresh coffee beans here. If you need your beans grounded, they do grind it for you depending on your brewing method. They have beans of light roast, medium roast and dark roast and sell by various weights for a very reasonable price. They also sell various tea leaves, baked goods (croissant, muffin, scones, bagel, Danish, coffee cake, Dessert Therapy cookies, and merchs. They also have a seasonable menu that changes. When I went, it was the Sakura season menu. Staff were all friendly and were very willing to answer any questions regarding the menu. Please note, the base coffee blend for each day varies and rotates on a daily basis For my visit, I tried ... 1. Buttered Coffee (4.5/5) The base coffee for the day was the Peru single origin, which was well-balanced; slightly sweet with a hint of tartness and nuttiness. They then add a chunk of butter into the coffee, which helps cut some of the acidity, but also is supposed to enhance the caffeine effect and give you additional energy from the fat. It does leave a layer of fat/oiliness so if you are not a fan of that, then this may not be for you. The butter did give it a subtle buttery flavor, which I personally liked. 2. Matcha with Sakura Cold Foam (4/5) The matcha was blended smoothly and was not grassy at all. The Sakura cold foam didn't really taste like Sakura (been to Japan, so know what real Sakura flavor should taste like), but instead, just tasted floral. 3. Columbia Supremo Whole Beans Full body and aromatic. Good for those who like to drink black coffee 4. Guatemala Huehuetenango Whole Beans: Crisp, acidic and a hint of nuttiness Glad I found this local roaster where I'll definitely be coming back to get some more fresh beans.

Finally got to try this spot!! Honestly, parking along Ventura is always a nightmare which is what…read morehas been keeping me away. Super happy I finally got to try this place though!! Got lucky with parking about only a block away and walked over. Very busy!! Love the high ceilings in here and it looks like it was connected to some kind of homeware shop? Didn't really look and was more focused on trying to figure out what to order lol!! They only have a small menu on the counter right when you order. Would be nice to have it on the wall to browse while waiting in the long line. The menu is very simple though so I ended up just getting an iced caramel latte and my bf got an iced matcha latte. I also got a toasted everything croissant which was absolutely fantastic!! Perfect jalapeno cream cheese in the middle. Delish!! The drinks took a bit but it was also very busy so I understand. Two workers but they managed and had great energy! Loved our drinks as well. Super creamy, strong, not overly sweet!! They are also pet friendly and even have a water bowl inside by the entryway. Great spot and would definitely come back if I happen to be in the area. IG: @ammysalamii

It's a really cute little cafe, that shares a space with a furniture store. It's located in a great part of Sherman Oaks and it seemed like the place had many regulars. Upon entering I was greeted by both the barista and the cashier/barista. It was quite busy on a Friday at 10:30 am, but I managed to get seating outdoors. It was fully packed inside! I ordered an iced latte and managed to get their lack everything croissant. The girl who took my order was very sweet and friendly. She warmed up my croissant and it was ready in a few mins. Now, my coffee took over 20 minutes to be made. I saw the barista make orders that were placed after mine. Some seemed to be for his regulars, which was annoying and was not appreciated. I was also in a bit of a rush, but managed to just make it out in time for my appointment. I enjoyed the coffee and croissant, but did not appreciate waiting over 20 mins for my iced latte which should have been ready with my croissant!

A cute neighborhood spot. Got a matcha americano and a cappuccino…read more Their matcha was decent but not fully mixed--had some matcha clumps at the bottom. Also, the cashier rang it up as a matcha latte ($6.75), and I just thought it to be a little silly to charge the same price as a latte which has milk when I'm getting it with water. Whatever, it's ceremonial grade. Partner's cappuccino was good, a little too milky and less coffee-forward than I like but pretty smooth. The interior of the space is super cute! Small and intimate, well decorated, has wifi. Not a ton of tables so I'm not sure I'd post up and work here, but certainly nice for a moment to enjoy your drink. Parking situation: free lot! I might come back if I were walking around the neighborhood, but if I'm driving I'd rather drive somewhere else.

Drink came out pretty quick and had a very pretty coffee color! Sometimes you just immediately know it'll be good just by the color and it was! Super delicious, perfect maple flavor. Would definitely come back!! IG: @ammysalamii

It can get a bit loud when the shop is at capacity, but can still maintain a conversation. First time I've been to a coffee shop that has a roasting section in-house. Great spot.

I tried Master Joe's Medium and Dark Roast, made with 100% Colombian Arabica, and it instantly stood out.

I met the Master Joe's team at an event, and they were just as impressive as their coffee -- genuine, passionate, and clearly focused on quality. Their steampunk-inspired setup created a full experience, and everything they served was crafted with care. The standout for me was the Espresso Martini. Rich, velvety, and unforgettable. I picked up a bag of their beans to enjoy at home and also bought their coffee pods for my Keurig at work. I've been enjoying both ever since. You can tell they care about every detail, and it absolutely shows in every sip.
