Amazing coffee.Creative/artistic environment. Made me feel safe to ask questions. Delicious americano ! Thank you Undergrind! See you tomorrow. read more

Favorite local coffee spot ever since they opened. Always busy but worth the wait. Coffee is great and food is tasty.

Got the Tiger Island latte - so good! Perfect sweet flavor, and I love the decor here.

I love seeing this place grow in popularity! It's still tiny and charming and it would be magical to have more seating, buts it's all gravy! Their menu has also expanded and I wish I didn't just have lunch before walking in because the special of the day was gumbo!!! The people here are beyond friendly and I'd come here even if the coffee/food wasn't delightful (but trust me, it is!) they seem to use good quality ingredients, no rack of syrups for flavoring which is always refreshing. I was craving ice cream on this hot LA day, so vanilla bean blend hit the spot of every taste bud I've got! Deeee-lish read more

This place was decent. I liked how quiet everyone was and the service was friendly enough. I ordered a lox bagel but didn't eat it cause it was fishy and the bagel was burnt and cut up my mouth. I stayed hungry but enjoyed the venue enough to try again in the future. I'll just avoid the fish. read more

So nice to have an independent coffee shop in the neighborhood. I enjoy their Veg-Out burrito and Greek Scramble (both vegetarian). Delicious and huge portions - - I can never finish either in one sitting. read more

What a delightful addition to the Robertson neighborhood! Undergrind is officially open every day, and boasts a nice, clean, cute space with great natural light for some daytime work or reading. The menu includes breakfast and lunch sandwiches, and the drinks include delicious options like dirty chai and dutch (chocolate & espresso). There are also yummy tea latte choices like london fog (earl grey) and lavendar. It's a short walk away from where I live, so it's a nice Saturday morning treat. Never too crowded, so far as I can tell, so you can get your caffeine fix without the wait. I just.... Love. Coffee. And Undergrind! read more

Vegan Chocolate Donut is mushy but DELICIOUS! Really enjoyed the shrimp burrito without the spicy beef too and the yummy #3 juice.

Yay! A great new coffee shop on Robertson!! They are only open on sat-sun right now 8am-4pm. But in a few weeks, they will be open during regular business hours. Try the breakfast bite! I had them make mine without the apple smoked bacon. So filling and delicious hangover food. read more

I don't like to get emotional about a burrito but it was exactly what I wanted to eat and how i wanted it to look. *tear - Thank you. Great new coffee shop. Finally something new and fresh down Robertson. Looking forward to trying more. Menu has just about everything I like! French Toast bread pudding?! Turkey chili is also great! read more

Stumbled across this place while in town visiting to eat breakfast. It's a black opened business which makes it extra amazing! Great prices for food and coffee, they only have outdoor seating and there is an extra charge for using your card for Purchases, but I definitely would come back again! I got a burrito and it was just what I needed. read more

Their burritos are great! Super tasty and filling. One of my fave breakfast spots for sure. Wish the salsa was a little more spicy. Other than that, they are super quick and polite. Enjoy their drip coffee as well. read more

I can't believe it took me this long to review this place! I used to live in the neighborhood and this area is sorely lacking independent, quality, affordable cafes. The food is consistently good and the staff is shockingly patient and sweet. Parking is easy on side streets and there are meters out front if you're just stopping off to pick up a drink. The atmosphere is clever and cute. It has a true neighborhood feel. Thank you Undergrind! read more

Undergrind Cafe is a pretty good spot. The atmosphere is chill and I'd go back. The decor of the cafe has a nice bright feel and not many cafes have that bright vibe. The staff there is very friendly and can see that they enjoy their costumers. I ordered a breakfast bite and peanut butter cup blend and I must say it was reasonably priced and tasted fantastic. This place is a must try :) read more

Undergrind Cafe - breakfast bite and peanut butter cup blend - Cafes Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The prices here are phenomenal. Pretty sure you won't find another quality breakfast spot in the area where you can get a meal and drink for less than $12. I played it safe and got the Breakfast Bite, a bacon and egg sandwich on a croissant. While I enjoyed it, after looking at my friends Veggie Grits, I realized I need to come back and try more of the menu. My iced salted caramel latte was delicious. As we visited during COVID, there was no indoor seating but they had a shaded set up on the sidewalk and it ALMOST felt like a legit brunch. For $3 extra, you can add CBD to any of their drinks. I ordered two iced tea lattes to go with added CBD. One of the drinks was the Purple Rain. It's a lavender tea latte. I expected the drink to be purple but it came out white. So much for the cool gram shot I thought I was going to get when I ordered. Still, it was different and refreshing. Idk how effective the CBD was but I woke up pretty early for breakfast and after that drink, I went back home and had a great nap! The servers were friendly too. I'll be back. read more

Favorite place on Robertson. Best food and great prices. I've ordered almost everything on the menu. Black owned which makes it even better.

Had yet another amazing drink here a few days ago (Green Dragon aka green tea latte). If you like green tea, this is definitely the drink for you. Not too strong and bitter (the way matcha powder can be), perfectly sweet and silky smooth. I popped open the lid of my drink to take a picture and was slightly shocked at how much room was left at the top...but that won't deter me from coming back and making the Green Dragon my go-to drink order read more

Undergrind Cafe - Green dragon w/ soy. O M G this might be my new favorite drink anywhere...but feelin slightly jipped :( - Cafes Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Not sure why this place is getting 5 stars. Very basic food that is over priced and just all around not that good. Service was not that good either. Girl behind the register was very rude with attitude. Hardly anywhere to sit and eat as well. Will not be returning. read more

The food & drinks here was so good! The service could've been better. I ordered the gumbo, bite supreme, salted caramel iced latte, and peanut butter cup blended. The gumbo was ON POINT! The spice and seasoning combo they had was perfection. It felt like a warm hug while you were eating it. The bite supreme was really good, I had it with bacon. I've had salted caramel lattes before but this one ... phew, was on another level. It literally tasted like candy but it wasn't too sweet! I wasn't a big fan of their PB cup but my boyfriend thought it was delicious. The only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars was because of their customer service. I placed a phone order and the girl helping me was rude and she rushed me. I shrugged it off because I figured they were busy with their lunch rush. When I came to pick up my order, it was as if she become even more rude and it wasn't busy. She had her hand placed on her head as she was working with the tablet/iPad getting my order, as if she was annoyed. She wasn't pleasant at all. I understand not everyday will be a good day but please do not mistreat your customers if that's the case. Her service could've easily ruin a meal if it was dine in, which is allowed now so I can't imagine the other customers she's helped. Her service could've brought down the rating to 3/5 star but I enjoyed my food and drinks. I plan on coming back in hopes there will be better service. read more

Thank you!!! This was my first delivery from here and I was so impressed with how my croissant sandwich came out! The latte was excellent! I will definitely order again! Also the Grubhub delivery person was so pleasant! read more

This place is great! Delicious food, and awesome atmosphere. Danny gave me the wrong drink, instead of taking the drink back. He gave me both the correct and wrong drink. He's definitely a boss. Erica was amazing as well, going above and beyond. Making sure I was taken care of. Best breakfast spot hands down. Will definitely be back soon!! read more

Le sigh..... Part of my life's philosophy is that the only acceptable thing to eat after a night of drinking is a breakfast burrito. Sadly, the break of day burrito here doesn't count. It was more like scrambled eggs wrapped in a tortilla. Even worse is that the "hashbrowns" we're practically raw. If you see my photo you'll notice it's just a very monotone color of yellow. Barely any bacon or avocado and those weak potatoes. Womp. Now on to the positives.... Their marshmallow latte was delicious. And my sister enjoyed the croissant breakfast sandwich. I'll definitely come back and try other food and drinks because the atmosphere is really pleasant and adorable. Think family run and local art on the walls. read more

Undergrind Cafe - Bfast burrito? More like scrambled eggs wrapped in a Tortilla :/ - Cafes Near Me - Los Angeles, California

During our lunch break, a coworker and I decided to order from here. We split the break of day burrito with soyrizo and the east chop salad. I am not usually a salad person, but I was very pleasantly surprised! It was light but filling and I thoroughly enjoyed it. As for the burrito, it was also pretty decent. Because my coworker does not eat red meat, we chose the soyrizo which was pretty good. It was not the best breakfast burrito I've had but it was solid and boy was it filling. There were definitely some other things I wanted to try, like their drinks and pastries. Of course, we can only eat so much, so they'll have to be for next time! Overall, pretty solid food and would be down to order from them again. read more

Busy cafe but I didn't wait too long. A bit pricey but that's usual for brunch spots. Food menu is extensive and has something for everyone. I got Southern Comfort and the Emerald City with oat milk. Both very yummy! Drink was not watered down at all and was sweet but not too much. I think the vanilla bean makes a big difference. Solid cafe in my opinion. read more

The only reason I wanted to take one star off but I didn't was because their sandwiches are sooooo good!!!! I almost put 4 stars for their drink order system. When it's on weekday or not that busy time of weekend, you don't have to wait too long for your drink. However when I came on Sunday rush hours for lunch time, it was a bit of mess. They put your name on your food orders so they know who ordered what, but for drinks, they don't put your name.... So if there are multiple people ordering the same drinks around the same time, you can see it can be a bit of mess. Other than that there is nothing to complain about this place. Awesome food, drinks, atmosphere and people working there. My go to place for breakfast/ quick bite or drinks :) read more

LOVE the Purple Rain!! Whether you order it hot or cold, it's such a refreshing treat! I've had a few of their breakfast items, which are also delightful, but there's just something so unique and satisfying about their signature PR that hits the spot. Also the cheerful pink cup wraps on their beverages just make me happy, not to mention the fact that their employees are always so friendly and personable. read more

I've ordered from here a few times and the food is always so good! Unfortunately every time I have ordered a juice or drink from them they always send me the wrong one. It's a bummer since the last two times they have sent the same incorrect order. read more

Coziest coffee shop decorated so nicely! place was impeccable , the food was amazing, and the service was great I have absolutely no complaints. Visited this place with a few people so I got to try their food too, and out of the 4 different things I tried, everything was finger licking good. *Rich girl sandwich, *Bollywood burrito, and *breakfast bite croissant sandwich were made to perfection. I'm a fan for *Mac n cheese and that didn't disappoint me either! now about their coffee ..: the Dutch I can drink all day ....everyday! :) make sure you visit this place with a few people so you can get to try not just one thing ... all worth it. every penny worth it!!!!! read more

Such a great spot for a coffee date, a little pick me up or whatever. Delicious food, great drinks and lovely ambiance. Also, the attention to detail on the food (yes, this is a cafe) and packaging makes this place special. Also, LOVE that it's woman and minority owned - support your local businesses! read more

Awesome customer service. Personalized greetings and acknowledgment. Food is delish. Drinks are also great. I live in the neighborhood, and my family all like to drop by often. My son especially is a regular, since he attends the nearby school. He always tells me how great the service was. read more

hmm.. loved this place... not sure what happened... gumbo was just gravy with sausage, chicken, shrimp. rice was stale. ordered an all american breakfast burrito, but got a vegetarian burrito instead. $26 and a twenty minute drive wasted. read more

This is a fun little shop. I remember each bite feeling fulfilling and with great flavor. I've gone in person and through DoorDash and still get the same quality regardless. Would recommend read more

The people who work here are really lovely, and the food is great -- when it is made the way you ordered it. Twice I've ordered a bacon croissant sandwich for pickup, and twice I've received it with sausage instead. You can imagine my utter despair when I unwrapped my sandwich. The first time I shrugged, calling it a fluke, but the second time? Come on. Stop trying to make sausage happen! It's not going to happen! read more

When I read lavender latte online I knew I had to make a stop here! Metered street parking is convenient. The place is easy to find and has a cozy vibe when you walk in. The food menu is to the left and the drink menu is straight behind the counter. I ordered the loxsmith (everything bagel with lox) and a purple rain (lavender vanilla latte). LOVED the latte, but I also love lavender. And the loxsmith was yummy. My partner ordered the break of day breakfast burrito which he enjoyed. Lots of different kinds of seating options and even 2 tables outside to enjoy the sun. read more

Terrible experience throughout. We showed up 45 minutes before the place closed and were told the kitchen was closing and several menu items were unavailable. Not only does the kitchen start closing almost an hour before the cafe (not listed anywhere inside or online), but apparently they can't clean dishes after that time either as we were given everything in takeout containers. We saw various other customers wishing to order food after us who were turned away well before 4 as well. While the lattes were decent (though very sweet), the food was mediocre. The Greek scramble felt like it was thrown together in a few seconds and had very little of the vegetables/feta. The avocado toast (without the ciabatta, which was unavailable) had very few browning avocados and way too much goat cheese and arugula. Finally, despite telling us we would be able to eat inside if we wished, the cashier insisted we move outside not even a minute after the listed close. After we asked her for a few more minutes to finish our last few sips, she loudly and rudely said "they want 5 more minutes" to the other employees. All in all, the below average food was not enough to make up for the awful service and attitude of the cashier - we will not be coming back until we see a change in atmosphere here. read more

Great place to get some work done, drink some great coffee and eat great food! Undergrind cafe offers a variety of hot or cold lattes, and teas made to order. The breakfast menu contains a variety of burritos, sandwiches and plates. You order at the counter have a seat anywhere and they bring out your food and drinks. I have ordered the All American Burrito which is filled with meat and juicy. The salsa is really good and adds great flavor. Looks like they only have street parking but I have never had an issue finding parking. Next door is a really cool mural and small art gallery. I have come back numerous times on my way to work for a breakfast burrito the service is quick and the staff is friendly and awesome. read more

After enjoying a nice french DineLA (Meet In Paris) meal in nearby Culver City, I was on the look for a nice little shop to get my coffee fix. Upon opening my Yelp, there were many coffee shops around me but the one thing that Undergrind had that immediately caught my attention was their Peanut Butter Cup Blend. I am a huge fan of Peanut Butter Cup thanks to Frostbites so I immediately opted for that one! It had the perfect combination of espresso/coffee taste with a hint of peanut butter cup that does not overwhelm the purity of the drink. Surprisingly, it also did the job of keeping me awake as I just could not stop sipping on it on the way back home. I wish more coffee shops can make this drink so I do not have to drive all the way out here to get it but I have no choice at this point. The interior is very nice and modern with variety of table/bar seating if you want to hang out with some friends over coffee and breakfast. They also had a intensive breakfast/brunch menu that seemed to be very popular. Too bad I had just eaten minutes prior otherwise I probably would have grabbed a bite here. Hopefully, I will get the chance in the near future to come back for more drinks and try out their breakfast menu. The coffee menu was simple but their speciality blends like the Peanut Butter Cup really stood out! The only thing I disliked was that you have to find street parking and every street around this area is metered, so be sure to bring quarters or face the wrath of a parking ticket! read more

Visited this place for the first time and I must say it was very well put together. Staff were real friendly and helpful. Coffee was just as good as advertised and specially tasted fresh. Their food was good, only thing that did not blow me away.

I will be back to this spot for sure. read more
