This spot is a TOTAL VIBE! Bringing a little NorCal Berkeley vibe to Mid-City Heights! This spot has yummy coffee and pastries the each have an interesting twist separating them from the run of the mill large corporate chain coffees. There is seating inside in a back room that is a great place to study if you can get a spot! Outside seating has covered umbrellas. Pricing is similar to most cafes. Try the banana sesame bread - yummy. Would've been better warmed but that didn't see to be an option. read more

This is such a nice cafe. It's located in a quiet neighborhood, has a beautiful interior, and the baristas are kind. I am a huge fan of the Friends 4 Ever drink and hope they keep it on the menu! My one issue is that they do not take your name when you place your order and it's difficult to tell which drink is yours once they're ready. Hopefully they change this in the future to avoid any mixups and confusion. Otherwise, this cafe is perfect! read more

My favorite coffee spot in the area. My go to drinks are either 1) the Magic Latte (comes in iced or hot) or 2) the bright eyes (for those mint lovers). Both are SOLID OPTIONS. For the bright eyes, they literally pick the mint fresh off a mint plant! Super cute, great vibe, excellent service. read more

If you're looking for a unique coffee spot to do work at solo or meet up with a friend, this is a great choice. This is one of the prettiest and most fun spots I've seen and we were welcomed so kindly by the staff. Who doesn't love a coffee shop surrounded by greenery and good vibes ? read more

Great hole in the wall, at first sight. This cute little coffee shop offers quite experience with it's quaint garden area through the mirrored hallway. Chia tea and latte were very tasty. The Barista is a true artist mixing .ingredients to develop a true surprise to the taste buds. My Chai latte was spicy and foamy with just enough sweetness to make the spice enjoyable. The regular latte was creamy and sweet. Only request would be for the drinks to be served a bit hotter, but that is a personal preference. read more

Cool spot, parking can be a little bit dicey so I would say this is more of a neighborhood cafe than a destination cafe. Drinks were good, appreciate everything being plant-based. They don't have meal food, just snacks. Interesting funhouse mirror hallway leads out to a small shop and a very small outdoor area. I expected more seats based off of what I saw online, I would say there's about four tables to work at. read more

Order the iced Magic Latte and another iced latte but for the life of me I can't remember the name. Unfortunately both were just okay. They were just a bit bland, nothing special. We also ordered a chocolate croissant and when they say chocolate they mean it. Only downside to the pastries is that they don't have a microwave or toaster oven to heat them up. The place itself is very cute, filled with art pieces and books. There's a really nice seating area out back. Perfect spot to read a book while soaking in the sun. read more

Great space with gourmet drinks and a restaurant next door if you're hungry for more than a baked good. Artsy staff and patrons. Quirky decor. Pet friendly with lots of outdoor seating. And even the indoor seating is half open air with plants on the patio. Nice little urban oasis if you're in the area. read more

A 10 / 10 for ambiance, Jurassic Magic has adorable decor, ample seating, and a cute store in the back. The staff are all very friendly and the garden in the back feels like an escape from busy Los Angeles. The Magic Latte and Bright Eyes were both refreshing iced coffees. I'm excited to be back to try the other signature drinks. read more

Went to the Westlake location right near Echo Park. Amazing! The baristas are always super friendly. The drinks and pastries are good. Highly suggest the coffee donut. Ofelia suggested the Magic Latte. Great suggestion and she just has the most amazing vibe. The only thing is the music at times can be a little off putting due to being ambient sound vibe. Just walked in and was taken a back by an ominous deep meditative sound bath song. Don't get me wrong love that ...for when I'm doing yoga. Not so much for my coffeehouse vibe. read more

New cafe in La Brea that opened roughly 6 months ago :) We found this little gem through an Instagram post. The design of the cafe is so quaint, and it's storefront is also incredibly unassuming. As you can tell from the photos, the entire place is filled with plants, and it is beautifully decorated. Ambiance + interior design is a 5/5. I got the matcha limeade and my friends got the magic latte. I enjoyed the tartness of the matcha limeade (think of it like a matcha lemonade except more tart because of the lime). That being said I couldn't really taste the matcha, so I'm not sure if the drink is worth the $6 price tag. But I will say for the ambiance alone I would come again and try a different drink :) read more

I thought the coffee was ok. It was pretty pricey for the size of the cup I got, smaller than a tall at starbucks for $7 before the tip screen popping up. Space is limited for seating. Vibe is cool but not enough for me to come back. There was no food when I arrived read more

Hidden gem. Was nearby. Drove down Washington Blvd and notices some outdoor umbrellas in side street. Had a hot Americano and tasty pastry. Has a very peaceful but crowded outdoor patio and several tables in front. The staff was friendly and helpful. The food was good and the price was reasonable Yep, I'm going back! read more

Loved the ambiance of this cafe. So unique and special with its little oasis in the back of the cafe. The interior feels like a mini gallery with its unique trinkets, pottery, and magazines. The iced latte was good although they ran out of vanilla syrup for the day. Service was quick and friendly. I also appreciate the seating available right outside the cafe as well. read more

Great coffee usually but today's barista doesn't know how to prepare milk for cappuccino/latte. She gave me a boiling temperature cappuccino. An amateur. All we as customers want from specialty coffee shops is high quality and consistency. Today you guys failed on both. Maybe you should train your baristas when you hire them. read more

The cutest coffee shop! The ambiance is amazing with all of the plant life and greenery. The staff was super nice and helpful:) I loved my drink I got it was like if coffee was a mojito. It was the eyes bright, which had mint and agave. My friends and I loved this place! read more

Cute place and great for a sit-down conversation. They offer a variety of pastries (I didn't see a comprehensive menu), but they're all behind the glass case and the cashier was super knowledgeable about them. They have mostly outdoor seating even inside of the store, though perhaps freshly painted because you can still smell the paint from outside. Seasonal cake (berry + kumquat) - quite good. It wasn't super heavy, but not sure how I felt about the coconut they snuck into the batter. I also wish the icing had more fruit flavor, because it tasted like a slightly lemony cream cake that happened to have some berry and kumquat on it. I could see someone else enjoying this more than I did. Americano - good enough, easily 4/5. Not the best I've had but solid. Magic Latte - nice blend of spices, but if you get it with cow's milk it can be pretty overpowering. Depends on preference, not for me. Situated interestingly at the mouth of a neighborhood, so street parking doesn't seem like an issue. Also very pet friendly as there are often cute dogs that come in and out with their owners. Seating quantity wasn't an issue while I was here, but seats aren't very comfortable and just forget about posture if you're here to get work done. read more

A short walk from our residence, myself and a buddy of mine stopped for a cup of coffee, an exceptional Cortadito and covered seating in the patio. a great place for peace and quiet or work remotely. read more

Everything about Jurassic Magic is indeed magical. With just a quick glance of the eye, one can tell the interior was meticulously curated to perfection. It immediately captures the five senses, and hits you hard and fast. The feeling of giddiness quickly washed over me. I knew I found a hidden gem then. They have a wide selection of pastries and beverages to choose from. Hidden in the back of the cafe is a secret garden. I adore everything about it. Definitely a must visit :) read more

Very cute place with delicious coffee! It's on a little side street off of Washington and there was free street parking on a Friday. It's very small, so only a couple of places to sit but that was fine. My husband got the magic latte which is like a chai latte with oat milk and he really liked it, and I got the heist lavender latte, which was also delicious and just the right amount of lavender. The staff didn't seem to like each other very much, but they were very nice to customers. read more

It's a cute concept, but the times I've been the human scene is pretentious and unfriendly.

One of the cutest cafes in LA! The surrounding area is a little sketchy, but there was plenty of street parking when I came during the week and the pastries and coffee were great. The staff were also very friendly. Jurassic Magic is a little too small and intimate for a large group, business meeting, or even a first date, but I'd recommend it for people working solo or if you're with someone who also wants a quiet time at a colorful and hip cafe. read more

Wanted to try a new spot and stumbled upon Jurassic Magic. Got to meet the owner Angela and Kam - they are so dope! Had some great convo while they were making my coffee. You can just tell good people and they are it! This place is a VIBE! from the color palette to the decor everything about it emphasizes that LA hidden gem we all can't wait to tell our friends about. Coffee: I tried the Magic latte. Although not your strongest coffee (you know that one that would get you going going) It has a taste that sets it apart from any dirty chai you could imagine. I recommend if you're looking for a tasty drink to chill out on to try this! I am looking forward to trying other drinks! Pastries: Whoever their baker is makes some massive croissants. I had the spinach and cheese and it was awesome. Would love to try it toasted next time. If you're looking for a vibe...COME HERE! It's not your huge industrial coffee space but feels more like heading to your favorite's cousins basement in the 90's ready to jam out to some good vinyl. I love it here and you will too! ..and their logo is dope! read more

A super cute, hole-in-the wall coffee shop. It was the first coffee shop I visited when I moved to LA, and it still is one of the simplest yet delicious. There is some sitting room, but it's mainly a to-go location. The barista that was working that morning was very kind and pleasant to chat with. I ordered a matcha latte with cinnamon powder, and to my delight, he asked if I wanted the cinnamon mixed in. I'm big on my matcha and how it's made so I loved that he asked. He balanced the flavors very well. Although I didn't try anything else, I highly recommend visiting them and trying out their match and their pastry options. They are a well-known neighborhood cafe. read more

What a gorgeous neighborhood gem! Thank you Yelp for giving me a successful search result. They even have a few gluten free options, and my favorite is Carrot Cake with Coconut! The staff were friendly and let me get all goo goo eyed about this place as I had to look at everything. I was here to catch up with a friend and the front is the chatty area - my photo is after everyone left. The back patio was quiet a serious with people working and I didn't take the photo of the cute boutique adjacent to that back patio. It has artisan goodies from Brazil. Great tea selection. No lunch food options but a good cafe tucked away from the loud blvds of La Brea and Washington. read more

Such a unique coffeeshop. From the decor to the variety of drinks. I tried their Magic Latte and Dog Days Crush. Loved both!

Cute coffee shop in Mid-City! Drink: I got a matcha latte with oat milk and honey that came out to ~$7. It tasted delicious and wasn't too sweet which I liked. Ambience: Clean with well-placed decor.

I go to a lot of coffee shops and have always looked for one to call my local spot. Luckily, I can finally say I finally found a shop I can call home in Jurassic Magic! Let me break it down for you: The drinks - whether you want a drip coffee, a specialty drink (ex The Magic Latte ) , or some tea - anything you get here is bomb. The food - Vegan pastries are to die for. Good ole fashioned breakfast sandwich 10/10 The vibe - indoor/outdoor seating where you can catch up with a friend, bring a date, or chill with your dog and enjoy your drink. The sidewalk seating gives me europe vibes and the inside is the perfect place to bring a book, write some poems or listen to an album all the way through The people - super chill, not snobby, and genuinely a good time to chat it up with read more

This is the second time I have gone here and received poor service. I am not sure if it is the color of my skin or if they are tired. I do believe it is the color of my skin, because the the lady who took my order was more than happy to help the other customers who came in the door that did not look like me... I would rather spend my money with people who greet me with a smile and not a sad pitiful face. read more

I really didn't know what to expect when coming here, and I was so pleasantly surprised at the detail and charm of this place. They describe themselves as a culture club coffee house, and that really hits the nail on the head. Parking was a breeze - the entire street is pretty much open for parking, which is a huge W for my parking anxiety friends. The coffee is delicious, I got an iced Magic Latte, which is a blend of sweet condensed oat milk with "Jurassic Spice" aka clove, nutmeg, cinnamon, and ginger. Seriously it's nostalgic and comforting and a great pick-me-up. There are pastries available at the front, but don't expect a full breakfast or brunch menu just yet - although they mentioned that a food menu may be in the works, which is super exciting. There is no shortage of things to look at while you wait for your coffee to be made. Tons of artwork, books, and well... more artwork! My fave was definitely the foot sculpture, I'd love to meet whoever made that, like, I need to know why... ANYWAY, this mirrored hallway totally caught me off guard, it's beautiful and kind of wakes you up a bit which is nice. The outdoor patio in the back really steals the show. You can tell this place is designed with so much thought and care, and you can feel it in every corner. I went around 10am and there weren't a ton of people. It did start to fill up as it got later, but since it's semi-outdoors, it didn't feel loud of overstimulating at all. Lots of seating options, and there were a few people working on their laptops so it's WFW-friendly. :) Wifi - Network: Magic Password: Jurassic Jurassic Magic is whimsical, energizing, and relaxing all at the same time. Highly recommend for a little work sesh. I'll definitely be back! read more
