    Geisha old fashioned, mascarpone
    Akari L.

    I love this location and its selection! I've been to different Kumquat locations but I love the vibe here. Parking is also much easier. The mascarpone is like a dessert in a cup and it's so delicate. It's my favorite. We also tried the tomato scone and it was really good.

    Needed some caffeine after a long drive and wanted to check them out. Parking can be a bit of a struggle but be patient. Looking over the menu everything looks of high quality and carefully curated drinks. Each one made to serve a purpose. I've had an espresso tonic before and I like the idea of it. I saw one on the menu and decided to go with it. It's a more refreshing and lighter way to enjoy espresso. Caribbean Tonic ($7.50): espresso tonic with pineapple juice, coconut cream, and tonic syrup. Garnished with a dehydrated pineapple The marble (matcha/mascarpone/pistachio) and the mascarpone drinks (think tiramisu) are both $8 and popular. They look very pretty too. They also have some breakfast burritos and baked goods.

    Loquat Coffee also owned by Kumquat Coffee and Fondry. I was excited to try Loquat located in Cypress Park ( around the 5 and 10 freeway) limited street parking only. We ordered the iced Lumiere $8.50 which is Mango Puree, organic pineapple juice, Mascarpone foam, cold milk. Odd taste. You need to like the idea of having a fruit juice mix with your coffee. Iced Mascarpone Expresso with oatmilk $8.75. The drinks are just OK imo. I've had better Mascarpone drinks in the OC. They have limited pasties from Fondry and Baker's kneeded. Not satisfied that they do not warm up the pastries for you because they were hard and cold.

    Croissant, taste like a buttered cookie

    Really cute coffee stop , we stumbled upon it because we wanted coffee and a pastry . I got the signature mascarpone and the croissant. I REALLY love the pastry for the crunchy flavor . The drinks were delicious and the service was quick! I'll def be back . My friends also got the cookie and sausage pastry and they were delicious .

    Loquat is such a cute vibey coffee shop. The outdoor area is so relaxing to just sit and sip on your coffee. I ordered the matcha with vanilla and it was very tasty. The vanilla was so good I loved it. I also tried their coffee and that was also very tasty. The coffee beans were so fresh. The service was also great all our questions were answered.

    Life isn't perfect but your iced coffee can be. That being said let's begin this ostentatious review. ;D ha! LOQUAT COFFEE (est 2024) is a corner specialty coffee shop in Cypress Park neighborhood of LA. It's a private label of Kumquat Coffee. LC's drink menu has an even distribution of espresso, pour-overs, cold brew, teas and signature drinks. Its interior is beautifully designed with an eye catching yellow & black color background scheme throughout the coffee shop. Furthermore, their seats were mixture of modern and classic design. Similarly, its high ceiling gives it more visual depth with natural light through their large windows. And the shop has that industrial exterior look with barely readable name. Anyways, Loquat's atmosphere was very relaxing. Staff were eloquent and competent. Prices were slightly higher than other coffee shops. Service was spot on. Coffee quality was great. Music background was soothing. As for drinks, I had a Brazilian Cold Brew. And it was bloody awesome! It's very refreshing really especially on a hot sunny day. Free wifi. Ample of street parking. Overall, I had a splendid experience and enjoyed my drink. I highly recommend you visit. See you next time.

    Mascarpone iced latte. Not sweet enough for me.
    Nina T.

    My cousin recommended this coffee place for me to try in Highland Park so I thought I'd go see for myself. The coffee shop color is very modern and pleasing to the eye. Parking on street only. I came for the Mascarpone Iced Latte since my cousin told me that is a must try. I ordered it with oat milk. The drink is very instagrammable. I was instructed to mix it up before drinking. I did and took the first sip. Okay, it's not sweet at all but a bit bitter from the cocoa powder, I mixed it some more, and although it wasn't as bitter upon start, it didn't get much sweeter for me. Keep in mind I love my coffee sweet and creamy and unfortunately this wasn't it. There was also a lot of (what I presume to be) coffee bean nibs in every sip I took. I did not like that at all and there was a lot of them, 2/5 for me. The Croissant Presse that I ordered looked really good as it was flat and had a caramel glaze on top. I was expecting it to be chewy and delicious. Instead, it was super crunchy. It was okay, 3.5/5 for me. Service was great, I just didn't enjoy the drink and pastry as I thought I would.

    Unfortunately, not as exciting as their sister store, Kumquat. It's very small with a few chairs outside and a bench inside. More of a take-out shop. Got the iced hojicha and it's exactly as I expected. Still refreshing and straightforward. There's some neighborhood parking across the street but otherwise I wouldn't make the trip unless you're in the area.

    Matcha ceremonial tea Yum :) 2/9/25
    Marcia R.

    Wow! Such a amazing coffee spot for the locals here in Cypress Park, the line starts outside, and they are very polite and kind and considerate in line. Everyone holds the door for you, Drip coffee is great, they grind the beans you get to see the magic happen here My match tea was excellent it was a ceremonial tea I watch him wish the match and pour it so amazing. First time here and it was so clean and vibes were great! Keeping local business going

    Matcha marble, original
    Anna H.

    This place is great, very unique drinks. We tried the marble matcha with mascarpone cold foam and scattered crunchy pistachios on top - Wowowow this drink is unbelievable I could have finished it in seconds, then the classic Mascarpone which tastes just like tiramisu - also incredible - the two pair great together for alternate sips. Tried the banana bread mini loaf which was very dry, but it was late afternoon and had maybe gone past its best, also got an iced americano which was decent. Come here for the speciality drinks though they are so worth it

    Intimate coffee shop located on the corner of the block. There's not a whole lot of seats, but they have about 4 barstools by the counter. Spacious waiting area though! The theme here is quite cute! I like their coffee bag packaging here since they're shaped like cars haha. I ordered the mascarpone coffee and it was pretty good! It reminds me of a mocha, but a bit more creamier. The chocolate bits(?) were hard, but presents light notes of chocolate as you drink. The drink looks like a dessert, but it's not that heavy!

    A little small cute local coffee shop in the Cypress neighborhood. I would have loved to have this around when I used to lived in the area. Street parking is available. There is some outdoor seating but overall, seating is limited. Staff is super friendly!! My friend and I came here on a Monday morning after breakfast. There was no line and it was super busy but seats were all taken. I can only imagine how busy it is on the weekends. I wanted to try the Horizon signature but they no longer have that on the menu - super sadness since I am a hojicha/black sesame girly. Hope they bring this back as a seasonal or soemthing so I can come back to try it one day!! We both ended up getting the mascarpone signature - which is espresso, mascarpone foam, and milk. 10/10 would return for this one drink!! Absolutely loved the foam and espresso flavor. It was a good balance of sweetness from the foam and espresso coffee flavor. I'm so sad that I finished the drink so fast but it was just too good, I kept chugging it HAHA

    Always solid coffee at this family of coffee spots. It was a hot day so I skipped on my typical cappuccino order and got their mascarpone/tiramisu inspired drink. The drink was delicious but definitely not a sipper. It was delicious! Next time I will opt for the cold brew though so I can enjoy the drink longer.

    Where did you guys get your black hand sanitizer pump??! It's so aesthetic!!

    How much seating is there? It's hard to tell from the photos. Is it the kind of place where you can come and sit and work for a while, or more of a pop in-pop out kind of place?

    There's three small tables out front and four bar seats inside

    Does it place have something to do with Kumquat coffee?

There's plenty of parking along a hiking trail across the street of Kissaten Corazon. You'd have to use the crosswalk to access the cafe. As a speakeasy is, you have to look for this place. You don't have to look that hard since there's a small sign outside, leading into the cafe. Once you cross the first part, you'll see two bathrooms and outdoor seating. Once you come inside, you'll notice a tiny window with menus to the side. You order with the kind baristas, before taking a seat inside, at the bar, or outside. The inside is beautiful. There's a bar area for you to drink your coffee. You can also sit along the perimeter, near the piano, or near some bookshelves. There are numerous areas to sit and admire the inside. They have random vintage decor and shelving. As for drinks, I had ordered their strawberry sesame latte and their egg sando. Their egg sando comes with three baby dill pickles and some ground pepper sprinkled on top. It was delicious and truly hit the spot. Their latte was also delicious with a balance of coffee and fruit. The sesame isn't overpowering, so I wouldn't worry about that when ordering. After eating, we bussed our own plates and cups by putting them in a basket near their water dispenser. They seem to offer other beverages that weren't coffee, as well. I think I'll have to come back again soon! Again, it was the perfect experience.

While the matcha wasn't my favorite, I'd still return to try other drinks and appreciate the beautiful atmosphere.

All were excellent. Obviously...I came back. But honestly, the first thing I noticed on my very first visit was how comfortable it felt. I'm originally from more mid-sized cities like Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, so having a coffee shop where you can walk in and just shoot the shit matters to me. I'm a yapper. I love community. I like trying new places, but I also really value establishing my "spots" when I'm settling into a neighborhood. The specialty drinks here are exactly that: special. The menu feels unique and carefully crafted. But at the end of the day, I'm also just a genuine coffee lover, and the drip coffee is EXCELLENT. I also love that they micro-roast locally here in LA. I really value supporting local businesses, especially ones that clearly care about sourcing, craft, and community. While I'll absolutely be returning to shoot the shit, I'll also definitely be grabbing a bag of beans soon because I love the ritual of making coffee at home too. I also want to say this because I noticed some of the harsher reviews before visiting: this is a small neighborhood coffee shop, not a massive corporate chain built around speed and volume. Sometimes there's one person working. Sometimes service is slower because drinks are being made carefully and intentionally. Personally, I'd rather wait a few extra minutes for a thoughtfully made drink from a local business than get rushed through another soulless assembly line coffee experience. And yes, quality coffee costs money, especially in LA. Responsibly sourced beans, local roasting, quality ingredients, rent, and paying workers fairly all cost money. If someone wants the absolute cheapest possible coffee experience, there are plenty of giant chains built for that. But places like this are important because they create actual neighborhood culture and community. The staff have always been incredibly kind to me, and you can tell the owner cares as much about people as coffee. Will absolutely continue supporting. PLEASE SHOP LOCAL!!!
