    mocha, latte and matcha latte
    Tsu-Li L.

    Came here on a Saturday morning. It's located in the outdoor shopping area on the same floor as the food court, but located in its own store to the left. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There isn't any seating inside the store, so it feels more like a grab and go kind of place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You can order on the tablet at the front and wait for your drinks and food at the other end. I got a latte and the soyrizo burrito, which they cut in half. I'm glad they did that because it was huge and I was able to share it. It was a tasty and well-seasoned burrito. They do give paper straws, which is good for the environment but after a while, it tends to fall apart. Would come back here again if I'm in the area.

    A convenient spot in the shopping center! So glad there's other options besides a popular mass coffee chain that rhymes with fartrucks haha I enjoyed cold brew here with cinnamon honey syrup and oat milk and paid around $7. I also had an everything jalapeño croissant warmed up and it was so good even the birds near me wanted to eat it. You order on a tablet though, but the baristas did offer to answer any questions I have but I fear this could slow people down. Maybe just me. I'd like to come back though!

    Nice menu, easy to read.

    The first thing I noticed about this quaint coffee shop next to my work building was the friendly "hello"! I heard from these two sweet men. Why "hello" right back to you sirs. I like the vibe. To order, there are menu tablets available. Since it was not crowded at my 7am arrival I ordered at the counter. I explained that I like my coffee strong with just a bit of oatmilk. He said "no problem!" and did as I asked. The menu is varied. The baked goods looked fresh so I ordered a chorizo cheese croissant. It was yummy and flakey. When I got my drink it was strong and delicious. I will definitely return! Great service goes a long way in my book.

    I tried a matcha latte and an everything jalapeño cream cheese croissant here--both were delicious. I was especially happy to find that the matcha was unsweetened (which can be hard to find), and you have the option to add a sweetener or omit it entirely. They offer a variety of plant-based milks, and overall, the matcha was very flavorful. The café also had a great selection of pastries, including some vegan and gluten-free options. The staff was friendly and helpful, which made for a positive experience. I visited on a Sunday around 9 AM and there was no line, which was a nice bonus. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a very modern and small place, but you can sit down outside at the tables provided in the middle of the outdoor area of the shopping center.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I wouldn't recommend it as a place to study or work from, but it's perfect for relaxing while enjoying your coffee and pastries.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] One thing to note is that it can be a bit tricky to find if you're following Google Maps--you'll need to walk down the stairs or take an elevator from street level, as it's located just below a shopping center. Overall, I definitely recommend checking it out.

    Went to Velo in mid April and really enjoyed my coffee. It was really good and the staff was friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The coffee set added to the cute coffee shot vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would come back to this location!

    Awesome little coffee shop in the heart of DTLA. Relatively new, but they know what they are doing. Worth a check out for sure.

    Not only is this some of the best coffee in Los Angeles, Austin could not be nicer. Always a treat to see them on Silver Lake Blvd.

    I was headed to dinner at the fabulous Holbox, but driving there from Hollywood at rush hour is…read morenever a good idea. So I looked for a coffee spot closer to the restaurant at which I could do some work. Alibi Coffee is only 10-15 minutes from the restaurant, which made it a good candidate--and off I went. It sits on the corner of Washington and Raymond Avenue. While there's one-hour parking on Washington, Raymond seems to offer unlimited parking (other than street cleaning days)--the friendly, helpful barista directed me over there. Inside, it's a tranquil, clean and comfortable environment that mixes contemporary touches with brick industrial vibes. I'm in my cream top era, so I decided to get their Trademark Cream Top Latte, which uses cold brew and house made cream with a hint of brown sugar. The drink was smooth and not too sweet and, all in all, extremely enjoyable. Next time, I might try the Salted Caramel Cream Top Latte. I was warned it was a bit sweeter, but I'd like to see for myself. Wi-Fi seems solid, and there are plenty of outlets (yay!), so this was a great work spot. I'd definitely return anytime I needed to be in this area.

    My supervisor loves this place and recommended it. I haven't been inside, so I can't comment on…read moreservice, etc. Honeycomb Sugar Latte: I like the idea that you can add the amount of honey crumble into the drink based on your preference. I ended up adding it all. Salted Caramel Latte: I tried this drink the second time around, and I love it. It will be my go-to drink from now on at Alibi Coffee. It's sweet and creamy.

    Matcha snobs, this is your sign. ROK's matcha holds its own against Community Goods -- genuinely…read moredidn't expect to say that, but the quality is there, if not a little better. No bitterness, no chalky aftertaste that cheaper ceremonial-grade pretenders leave behind. Just clean, grassy depth with a texture that's silky rather than gritty. This is someone who actually sources well and knows how to whisk Didn't stop there. The seasonal peach jasmine tea was the surprise standout ..floral jasmine up front, real peach sweetness (not syrup-bomb fake fruit) on the back end. Balanced in a way that seasonal drinks rarely pull off; most places either overdo the fruit or underdo the tea. This one's dialed in. Iced Spanish latte rounded things out and didn't miss either; espresso with enough backbone to cut through the condensed milk instead of getting buried by it. A lot of places let the sweetness take over; ROK kept the coffee actually tasting like coffee. 4 drinks, zero misses. That's not luck; that's a program that's actually dialed in behind the counter. This isn't a place riding on aesthetics and a good logo the drinks back it up. The matcha is legit, good quality stuff Come open up in OC you batches

The lot itself is very small and one way but if you're lucky it's free parking. Inside is pretty spacious, it's cute modern, nice.
