Los Angeles Coffee & Tea

Good Selection

1. Aroma Coffee & Tea

Neighborhood: Studio CIty

regular meals.  The selection of baked goods is TO DIE FOR. A single slice of cake is not the size of a "slice" usually doled out to mere mortals--in fact, my mouth is watering just thinking about...

2. Lupicia Tea

Neighborhood: West Los Angeles

Some good points: great service, free sample of hot tea, no pressure to buy, & huge selection.  Some not-as-good points: the sample tins need to have the tea inside replaced. There were a few tins...

3. Groundwork Coffee…

the general store feel, and appreciate their selection. I think their roast is pretty good... it needs to be fuller and more robust, more round, less acidic. maybe its the blend. But I'll still make...

4. Scoops

Neighborhood: Wilshire Center

Wasteland, we are all in crappy LA bands vibe but good decor doesn't have to cost much. There has got to be a Punk Rock interior designer out there that will work for free ice cream..... right???...

5. The City Bakery

Neighborhood: Brentwood

famous hot chocolate is a disgusting thick goupy mixture of chocolate and cream GROSS! anyways the baked goods were a selection of about 4-5 different items near the cash register the rest of the place...

Good Value

1. Scoops

Neighborhood: Wilshire Center

it's good...doesn't meet up to Marco Polo's gelato in SF which is also own by an old asian man and makes his own ice cream/gelato.   i'm over the vegan stuff doe...they need to start doing foie gras...

2. The City Bakery

Neighborhood: Brentwood

City Bakery is a neat concept and the food is pretty good, but I think the prices are just too expensive to go here all the time and make this a reasonable value.  But there aren't many places in LA...

3. The Coffee Table

Neighborhood: Silver Lake

still a nice place to eat and the coffee is good.  i so appreciate the hip vibe there.  the patio is so cute and a great place to sit and chat....

4. Frank's Coffee Shop…

Neighborhood: Burbank

The new ownership brought some slightly-less-than-homey touches (not enough to really complain about) but the food is still good diner food. They now have a list of $4.50 breakfast specials...

5. Bob's Coffee &…

Neighborhood: Mid-City West

Dinosaurs, Kitty Cats, and the good old original glazed, chocolate frosted...oh my!  Bob's is exactly what you expect, great value, creative donut ideas and simply said, they just hit the spot...
