It's a small cafe not too far from Angeles Crest. We decided to go here after hiking since it was…read morethe closest place with matcha (that wasn't Starbucks). There is not a lot of sitting, more of a grab and go type place. We tried their hojicha, matcha and iced coffee. They were all okay-ish. I got the matcha, I can't speak in details about the other two. But I was told they were all more milk than anything. The matcha was okay. I can't say it was a high quality matcha, I felt like I was drinking oat milk and ice. The service was good, they looked a bit under staffed or maybe too many people walked in. Initially they had one person making the drinks and simultaneously on the cashiers. Then a second staff joined in to help. But overall pretty friendly despite the circumstances.

The servers there were also clean, organized and friendly. The food and drinks were 1000% better than what I expected. I got a matcha rain and a pistachio croissant. The matcha rain was like an ice cream foam and latte in one. Not over sweet and I can taste the matcha. Which I never say that often. And the croissant was actually croissanting. Like I have been to other places and it's either just dough with some air in the center or soft hard bread if that makes sense. A croissant is supposed to be fluffy, slightly sweet and with a soft crunch. It was an actual croissant. Like omfg I'm going to be a regular

For parking, I found a spot on Milwaukee Ave. Once inside, it was very busy, so there was a wait before ordering. My girlfriend and I were barely able to grab a seat with a table. Prior to the visit, we were very interested in the milk bun and the perilla lime tart. After browsing the items they had, we did go for those options. I also got the Modu Latte as well. To my surprise, the Perilla Lime Tart was the sweetest item and my favorite item! The tart itself was firm and the perilla added a unique flavor. Both the milk bun and latte were not too sweet and went well together.

Ever since I moved to LA 5 years ago, I've loved Kumquat. I live about 25/30 minutes away, and on…read moremy days off I will swing by to grab a coffee or a matcha from this beautiful little place. Kumquat lives off of York Blvd - a street with many families, creatives, and small businesses live. The environment is always wholesome. Their staff are always friendly, and as an experienced barista myself, I can see that their team are also very talented, well trained and very good at quality control. Their espresso is so balanced and sits perfectly center on your palette. Their matcha and hojicha is rich and velvety and seemingly a higher grade product. They work with many roasters, and sell a lot of their beans on their shelves. They also sell a lot of coffee and tea tools. I love everything about coming to Kumquat. Don't skip on their other locations (Loquat and newfound Quat). I'll forever stan this business

Easy walk to Kumquat, basically around the corner. Maldives Cooler (Monthly limited drink for May)- tea wasn't strong and coconut milk didn't shine through either. It was more like watered down citrus tea. Tennessee -pretty smokey but coffee wasn't great. Pretty watered down and not much floral flavor from the Sorghum Syrup either. New English -you don't taste any vanilla bean or maple flavors from the vanilla bean infused maple syrup. Coffee itself was very very light. Cloudy With A Chance of Peanuts -strong peanut butter flavor. This drink is significantly smaller than our other drinks. Not great either.

I love their Miel Cream Top and Vietnamese Iced Coffee. I recently got to try their breakfast burrito and it was good! The ingredients were standard breakfast burrito ingredients but it tasted more elevated and put together. I do wish it was a little bigger for the price but still good regardless! Service is always good. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. Drinks come out in a timely manner and food comes out relatively fast as well. The ambiance is AMAZING. The whole spot feels like you walked into an exclusive bar. I love how dimly lit it is inside; it really adds to the ambiance of this "dark and mysterious" coffee spot. There is a lot of seating inside but it is always packed every time I go , so try to be there early to catch a seat! Overall , I love this spot. Will come back again.

I'm also looking forward to giving some of the other items on the menus a try. The service was friendly, there was a line to order but it moved rather quick. Give them a try if you're looking for a chill spot to hang out at in the Eagle Rock area.

My wishes and suggestions please convert or merge the store into an indoor place for customers / (2 indoor tables inside is not enough) considering other competition nearby m, specially in the front. That room will probably accommodate 6/10 tables. Please, please consider this idea, then i would hang out more specially during hot days.

I saw they had an Ube latte, so of course that is what I ordered, and it did not disappoint. Very flavorful and delicious.

I wish they were more clear about that. I thought it was 1/2 off which is why I ordered so many to start out with. The taste of the bake good, however, are good and not too sweet which is great. The chocolate chip cookie was meh, there are better ones in Pasadena. The pistachio cooking was good. And the green tea cake was amazing. I just wish there sign for the discount was more clear and things were so pricy.

The coffee isn't sour which means their extraction was done right. I also noticed the crema when they served their espressos to other customers. So the baristas are definitely coffee connoisseurs and technicians when pulling their shots. Very courteous staff and they will talk to you if you are just standing there. If you just finished a hike or maybe want to rest for an hour inside is quiet and quick stop to pick up your coffee and go! Outside has tables for a small party. Overall, this place has a lot of potential to be busy with quality espressos, cold brews and lattes. Cheers!
