$9 for a latte felt like a total rip off. The ladies at the counter seemed rude and felt kinda judged just asking for a simple water. No water station in sight. Not worth the price tag for sure. Won't be back.
I’ve been buying Trinity beans for about a year now, and one thing that keeps bothering me is the lack of consistency. They don’t taste the same every time, and I can really notice the difference from batch to batch. I’ve been wondering — how can the roasting be so inconsistent? As a customer, I expect more stability in flavor and quality, especially from a brand I’ve been loyal to for this long. I truly enjoy your coffee, but I hope you can address this issue and ensure a more consistent roasting process moving forward.
I’ve been to multiple coffee shops up and down the California coast. If the score card is based on vibes, tranquility, good coffee, then this place scores 10/10. Hands down the best coffee spot in LA. Great place to study, chat with friends, and possible host an event. The interior design has multiple warm materials that all work together to add to the tranquility. Good places make good coffee. 🙌
In my humble opinion, this is hands down the best coffee shop in Los Angeles. The owner isn’t just passionate about coffee—he’s an international coffee competition judge, which speaks volumes about the level of expertise and dedication behind every cup. He sources beans directly from some of the finest growers around the world, so you can expect nothing less than top-tier quality every time you visit. The entire staff here is warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive. They consistently go above and beyond to ensure your coffee is made exactly the way you like it. I want to give a special shoutout to Mimi and Yun—two incredible people who truly are the heartbeat of this café. Their friendly energy and personal touch help create a vibe that’s both inviting and memorable. If you’re someone who appreciates high-quality coffee and a thoughtfully curated experience, I can’t recommend this place enough. It’s a must-visit gem for any coffee lover.
They’ve put a lot of effort into decorating the café to give it a professional look, but the coffee quality is mediocre. The prices are too high for what you get. It felt like I went expecting Stereoscope, but ended up with an overpriced Starbucks.
