    I got a chance to visit Arts Tower Coffee which is a cute cafe located in the historic Spring Arts Tower in Downtown Los Angeles, known for its specialty coffee and modern design. It offers signature drinks, pastries, and sandwiches, with a vibe inspired by the city's art and music scene, and is situated above The Last Bookstore Downtown LA. I tried the "Miklo Chico" which was very refreshing. The cafe is wheelchair accessible, offers free Wi-Fi, and has bike parking as well as parking structures near by. The cafe is also a flexible event space for private gatherings. If you are looking for something different, try "Arts Tower Coffee". Sometimes it's nice to get away from the hustle & bustle!

    Pink Cloud

    Great ambiance, loved the wall art and music! Both owners were there and gave lovely service. I had a Pink Cloud iced matcha with oat milk and a coffee cake on the side. Both items were very tasty! Highly recommend for a snack, drink, and hangout with or without friends.

    Dirty Chai
    Alex M. ..

    The dirty chai is particularly smutty and filthy! I really dug it and it has to be one of the best I've had in the city. It's located at the top of a building on the 9th floor so it's very lowkey. Got some cool books and music to hang around. Staff was super kind and it's added to my rotation of cute a$$ coffee spots around DTLA.

    I stumbled on this cute little coffee shop while visiting the Last Bookstore about a month ago, and the drinks and vibes were exactly what I needed to end my day! After talking with one of the workers, I decided to host a little get together here to celebrate my engagement. The celebration was last weekend, but I can't stop thinking about it! The chef was able to whip up an amazing charcuterie board that all of my guests LOVED!! They all also raved about the amazing view of downtown! Highly recommend that you stop by this hidden gem if you're in the area

    La Bombon (top) & Pink Cloud (bottom) both very delicious!!

    Drinks were delicious and it was a nice hidden location. Such a cute lil experience! Will go again.

    Place is such a vibe!! Mario recommended getting the BLT. So fire! Definitely come by here!

    Ambiance

    Pure vibes! A great place to grab a yummy sandwich, pastries, coffee or, matcha. Service is quick and everyone is nice. The music is always great, and it's a nice city feel. It's great!

    The OP Cafe is an awesome experience for fans…read more The employees are amazing. They're all super welcoming, friendly, and helpful. Shout out to Xeandric, Tony, and Tati for being so energetic and for making my grandma's birthday so much fun! G-Ma had an unforgettable time! Service is quick. There's a good amount of indoor seating and a few outdoor tables, but it can get packed quickly. The interior is so thoughtfully designed (didn't get everything in my video), all the way to the restrooms. Street parking or nearby garage parking is available. Mild-moderate noise level. The prices for food/drinks are fair to slightly higher, but nothing excessively so for a themed cafe - especially for one based off of such a popular anime. Everything we ordered was actually really flavorful and filling. Definitely try the onigiri! The drinks are as sweet as they sound, so keep that in mind if you prefer milder flavors. They have a lot of options, but there's an online menu so guests can plan ahead. Plenty of merch to choose from, including t-shirts, keychains, bottles, lamps, plush toys, etc. Prices are pretty fair, and the quality is sound. You can tell a lot of thought and love went into building this space for fans. I hope they stick around for a long time. Happy 1 year anniversary to the OP Cafe!

What immediately stood out is how well the cats are treated -- they have full freedom to roam, plenty of toys to keep them entertained, and they're well fed and cared for. You can tell this place genuinely prioritizes making it a warm, comfortable space for the cats while they wait for their forever home. It's not a shelter -- it feels like a home. The staff made the whole adoption experience seamless. Jude especially was incredibly kind, helpful, and knowledgeable -- exactly the kind of person you want guiding you through the process. The rest of the team matched that same energy, and it made everything feel easy and stress-free from start to finish. My girlfriend and I couldn't be happier -- we found our girl Pinky, and she's already stolen our hearts. 10 out of 10, would recommend this café to anyone thinking about adopting. Don't hesitate, just go.

However the staff are some of the most wonderful people and absolutely cares for their flurry friends without question. The cats are given full access to the whole space, they own the place and we are just guests. Most of them are absolutely comfortable with people walking around so you can tell they are definitely well treated. They do have a coffee bar that I ended up getting a black. Coffee is decent, but you didn't come here for the coffee. You came to spend time with flurry friends. Prices are very reasonable as well. You can't go wrong if you just want a couple hours away from the busy day and be accompanied by some very friendly cats! If you are looking to adopt a cat they do work with KittenRescue so you are in wonderful hands. The process is smooth, quick, and just overall a very pleasant experience.

It's a genuinely…read morefun, unique spot that brings a great slice of Akihabara cafe culture right to the area. The atmosphere is incredibly welcoming, and everyone working there was so nice. We were served by a wonderful Caucasian maid, and we also noticed a cute Korean maid taking care of some other tables--the whole staff was super friendly and really added to the charming, positive vibe of the cafe. One thing that really stood out to me was their retail section. They have a surprisingly solid selection of Japanese trading card games like Weiss Schwarz, Hololive, and Pokémon, alongside some manga. It's an awesome touch if you're a fan of the hobby or just want something interesting to browse while waiting for your order. As for the food, I had to try the classic maid cafe staple: the omurice. I ordered the curry omurice, complete with the signature cute ketchup art drawn right on the egg. It was hearty, flavorful, and definitely hit the spot. We also tried a couple of their specialty iced espresso drinks, including the tiramisu latte. They were topped generously with whipped cream and tasty crumbles. The drinks are definitely on the richer, sweeter side, making them feel like a dessert in themselves. If you're into Japanese gaming and anime culture, or just looking for a cafe experience that's a bit out of the ordinary with fantastic service and indulgent drinks, this place is absolutely worth a visit.

Yes, they do take long to get orders our…read moreduring meets and events but that's pretty understandable considering the sheer volume of orders they'd have to accommodate. The location itself is super small and at times cramped depending on how crowded the events were. I did enjoy the tofu pudding here, but I do admit that their drinks could have been better. Did I ever go out of my way to get the drinks here? No. But did I come out here because they helped and played such a vital role in building a community? Hell yes. Thank you so much for the memories

I was hoping to have my own AE86 built and ready when I finally stopped by, but maybe for the new location. As an honest critique of the actual storefront, the appearance and decor is very charming. In a very bright, Japanese themed cafe kind of way. But because this is an Initial D themed drink and snack spot, I can see this being a place where mostly guys use this place as a meet-up hub. Especially for a small car meet. Very niche right? Especially for the dying breed of 1980's 1990's - 2000's JDM cars. That said, how many guys in the city could you actually get to come here regularly for soy and soy-based accessories, drinks, and snacks? The dessert was okay, and I wasn't in love with the drinks. Light, tofu refreshing, but not captivating. Personally, the menu doesn't appeal to me, since I try to avoid soy since it tends to be a pro-estrogen consumable. I don't think they had to box themselves in into being a purely tofu-only cafe. They could sell tofu products, and also have something simple but repeatedly addictive; like In-n-Out, Wurstkuche, Howling Ray's, Tea Master Matcha Cafe, Savoy, Langer's, etc. The closest idea I can think of that would be forced into tofu would be like really excellent, authentic mabo tofu, agedashi tofu, or like a karaage or Tokyo fried chicken style fried chicken with a mabo tofu dipping sauce, heavy on the ma-la flavors. Hell, I might even stop by more if they imported more car parts, from like Impulse, TRD, or Apex'i. But the way the AE86 market is, it makes more sense to sell online to the global niche. Wonderful atmosphere and mood for the Initial D/MF Ghost/Subaru to Subaru fandom. It was fun just to follow on instagram and catch a glimpse of all the influencer personalities in the car community stopping by. I'll look forward to what their next Project T(ofu) looks like. See you next time, Space (cow) boy. Oh-oh-oh. I need you babe.
