    Parking: street Parking Pricing: a bit higher. Breakfast burrito was 12buckw. Coffee americano was around 6. Ambience: chill and cold with AC. Hygiene: I come in the morning so bathroom was pretty clean. Clients who used plates return to place. Parking: paid meter Pokego: one gym within reach and I think 1 pokestop.

    Our fam of five came here for Sunday brunch and absolutely loved the vibe, food and coffee. My three teenagers let me read a children's book to them about Billy Porter. Loved celebrating LGBTQ folks and this social enterprise.

    I love this place! It's part of the LA LGBT Center on Santa Monica Blvd. Read more about it here on Yelp "from the business". The inside is so pretty and there's a lot of seating! My co-worker and I came for the coffee but we decided to have a shared breakkie so their breakfast sandwhich, burrito, and berry pastry were delicious! Everyone is welcoming and nice. Clean restroom, good food/drinks and good vibes! I'll be back.

    Did NOT get a photo of the Cuban Sandwich before eating but it was ssooo good.

    Breakfast burrito sooo good! Cuban sandwich sooo good. Espresso cardamom drink sooo good. Matcha, kind of mid. Very good service from the staff and generally nice vibes all around. Lots of seating and some coffee table books to peruse. We will probably go back for the good vibes and the food.

    I wish I had discovered this place earlier on my trip to Los Angeles! The coffee was piping, hot and delicious and we ordered some breakfast sandwiches that were huge and lasted us several hours, they were delicious to nibble on. The service was really good, and the barista made sure to read the order back to me to make sure everything was correct. I am sugar-free and they made certain that I had my sugar-free option respected, some places don't.

    I love the LGBT Center and this inviting coffee shop on their campus (open to all) is a great place to stop in for a cup or to sit for a while. I had a client meeting there and found the seating options decent. It's not a large space but there are plenty of different table options, from high tops to communal tables to some smaller tables. Staff was exceptionally friendly. It's just a completely different vibe here and you get that right away. People seem glad to be here and glad to be working here... and it shows. There are food options including lunch sandwiches and pretty pastries and muffins for the morning. This is all the way around a way better way to do your coffee hangout.

    such a cute cafe! ordered a turkey grilled cheese - was very yummy and filling, but slightly pricey for the quality. I would have liked the cheese to be more melted and gooey. I also wished there was some sauce in the sandwich

It's a very cute and cozy coffee shop and there was no line when we arrived. The menu had a huge selection of different coffee and tea drinks and also a seasonal menu. The staff were very kind and patient and swiftly prepared the Vienna Latte and Hojicha Latte we ordered. The Vienna Latte is so visually stunning, the layers of white milk, brown espresso, thick white cream, brown cocoa powder and Biscoff layered on top of each other against the dark green logo was so aesthetic. Having a sip before mixing the Vienna latter was incredible, the sweet cream followed with the nutty strong espresso flavour then getting a refreshing splash of milk made a great combo with the Biscoff. I actually liked the drink less after its all mixed because it was too creamy for my taste. (I normally like my coffee black) My hojicha latte was great, but it was also too milky for me. So I went up and asked if it would taste good dirty, with an espresso shot in it, and the barista said yes. I ordered an espresso shot and instead of charging me full price, they only charged me the add on espresso shot for the drink! ($1.50 instead of $4) It was very kind of them since it was absolutely my mistake for not ordering the right drink in the first place. The shot added much depth and flavour to the hojicha latte I was craving. Thanks for the wonderful service. I'm definitely coming back to try their other specialty drinks.

The pictures don't lie. It's got that clean, modern coffee shop aesthetic, but a few quirky touches keep it from feeling like every other minimalist café. There's a photo booth in the back (which I assume explains the name) and a display of sunglasses that I never quite figured out. Also, no bathroom code. Always appreciated. Neither of us usually orders einspanners, but my wife got the vanilla and I ordered the mocha, both iced with oat milk. They were excellent. Creamy and rich and the coffee underneath was tasty even before mixing in the cream. The pastries looked beautiful and artful, although I was hoping for something simple like an almond croissant. The vibe outside on the patio was great. Lots of people working on laptops, plenty of room to settle in, and it felt more like a co-working space than a typical coffee shop. It's also super dog-friendly, has ample parking in its own lot and we even found easy street parking out front. Everything about this place just worked. We'll gladly make the 25-minute drive again.

We've gone several times since then. The flavor has been off and it has disappointed us every time. I'm not too sure if the recipe changed, that's just what my partner and I have been noticing.

Parking can be a bitch as the shop is located in a small strip mall. They do offer valet, but it's kind of a nightmare. Stick to street parking and walk it over. There was a small line up extending outside the shop, but the line moved at a decent pace as the baristas cranked out matcha lattes and other drinks. The spot was pretty packed with people studying and enjoying their drinks. I have no idea how people can study in such a busy and noisy environment, but props to them for trying. Ended up getting the double matcha for myself and my friend got the strawberry matcha. We both added oat milk, which was an additional $0.75 each. The drinks came out fairly quickly and definitely lived up to the hype. The double matcha was creamy, silky, and had a good balance of bitterness and mild sweetness. The matcha cream made it stand out in a great way. Besides indoor seating, they also have a small wraparound sitting area outside the shop where you can enjoy your drinks. They also have some merch for sale including hats, totes, tshirts, and matcha peripherals. I didn't get any baked goods, but saw that they had various pastries including matcha cookies. Definitely will have to give those a try next time I'm in the area. Highly recommend if you're a matcha fiend or just want a nice after meal drink.

For this, I have to give the ambiance 2 stars. I'd still come back for the exceptional matcha latte though!
