    Iced mocha
    Maansi S.

    When you see the ceramic tiles on the exterior walls, you're there! Not too much sitting so I'd recommend this for a pick up and go if you're in the neighborhood. It looked like a lot of folks that live in the area order from here. While I was in line, I heard a few were regulars. I ordered an iced mocha and it was really good. The chocolate was rich and the coffee was good too. I honestly thought about this mocha the next day. I'll definitely swing by again when I'm in Highland Park.

    Bruh. The iced chai latte with oat milk. Addicting. Service was friendly, the guys (baristas) had great energy and everyone felt genuinely happy to be there. They could have been acting, and if they were; they sure fooled me. Their uplifting energy was infectious after my yoga class. I'll absolutely be back not just for their amazing chai but because of the vibes. It's a small coffee shop, no where to sit inside, and it's located pretty close next door to Highland Park Yoga. They're quick and efficient. I love trying new spots, and collage coffee is a great addition to the community.

    Love their cute little secret courtyard behind the shop

    After my yoga class, I walked down the block for an iced latte. The coffee was solid, great flavor, and just the right amount of cinnamon sprinkled in at my request. The vibe of this place is fun and gritty. Not very often you go to get coffee and they're playing vintage metal, I dig it! I sat outside behind the shop in a little hidden courtyard. It was so cute down a pathway and into a nook with a couple of olive trees and tables. Very peaceful.

    Cute side entrance

    Espresso-based coffee, anyone? Non-caf turmeric tea? Or just a little alone time (you and your latte) in a quaint nook tucked away from the hustle & bustle of Highland Park's main drag? Collage Coffee has a simple, yet nicely curated offering of coffee and teas with a shot of charming calm. I chose their cold brew, which had the right amount of zing to keep me zagging through my day, along with a chocolate chip cookie on the side that was sweet and chewy. It was just the late afternoon pick-me-up I needed. Speaking of York Blvd., word on the street is that Bub & Grandma's Pizza shop across the street is opening very soon. And you'll be smelling the fresh wafts of Collage Coffee's brew in the late afternoon and evening breeze. So if you want genuine coffee served by locals who grew up in the area, let the welcoming baristas take your order. You can even take a dip into the back garden area where the vintage Elsa Cakes & Bakery sign still hangs proudly above (IFYKYK).

    I ordered an iced dirty chai with oat milk, which was too sweet. The sweetness overpowered the chai and espresso flavors. It cost around $9 The cafe is tiny, has no seats inside, and can comfortably fit five people. Seats are available right up front, built around a tree. If you're looking for a cafe to lounge or work at, there might be a better coffee shop. It is more of a run-in and out cafe. Parking was more accessible around these parts than in the rest of Los Angeles County.

    We came across this coffee shop while waiting for Joy next-door to open up at noon. There was a steady line outside the store, so we decided to give it a shot. The line moved quickly and the interior is very small. There's a door to enter place your order, and then another door to exit. They do have an exterior outdoor seating area and a couple of seating areas in the front as well but overall minimal amount of seating. The venue itself is also very simple. Not a lot of crazy flavors for their lattes, Just vanilla and mocha I believe. Their lattes are straight to the point and very delicious. The espresso they use is high-quality and I would definitely recommend giving them a try when you need some caffeine and you're in the area.

    Iced mocha
    Lys G.

    Iced mocha- tastes like any other mocha, nothing special. They have the good ice though :) Service was fine but I am not going to recommend it- limited options. Place is small, only room for like 2 people and no seating but that's part of the fun because u can walk around York with your drink.

    While shopping, I stumbled upon this coffee shop and decided to give it a try. I had a wonderful experience, thanks to the exceptionally friendly staff who made me feel welcome from the moment I walked in. Their warm hospitality and attentive service added a personal touch to my visit. Upon their recommendation, I tried the coffee, which was excellent--rich, flavorful, and perfectly brewed.

    Loop Espresso Club has the aesthetic vibes that any hipster, coffee loving, cool kid would want to…read morecome to. A cafe like this is where I'd study and hang out with my friends, endlessly. We parked on the streets a few blocks away and walked towards this cafe. The exterior was green with a very nice sign. When walking inside, you'll notice all the patrons working on the computers or hanging out with a friend. Towards the left side, you'll see the merchandise and the register where you'll order your coffee and food. The coffee bar was alongside the left side of the perimeter. I can't describe it enough - very studio Ghibli, speakeasy, jazzy, and coffee enthusiast themed. The barista greeted us with a smile and was gentle about it. We ordered their black sesame cortado and their signature cortado. We also ordered their breakfast sandwich with sausage. Their cortado was very strong, but had a great sweetness to it. It was decorated with orange citrus and the other one had black sesame seeds sprinkled across the top. It was quite delicious. Their breakfast sandwich was chef's kiss - it reminded me of a good sandwich my mom made me as a kid. It had a runny yolk, toasted bread, some melted cheese, and tomatoes in it. This place gave me such warm emotions inside and just made it feel like home. I understood why every table and seat had a person in it. If you love coffee as much as I do, this has to be on your to-do list when visiting LA.

    8/14/2026 First time…read moreat Loop Espresso Club. ESPRESSO CON PANNA I came here to try their Espresso Con Panna. Very little coffee shops sell them, so when I saw it on an online menu, I knew I had to visit. Coffee was fruity, sour, slightly smoky, lingering astringency and bitterness. The cream on top was light in sweetness. Overall it was okay, but still disappointing. It wasn't a smooth espresso, flavor was all over the place. Wish there was more contrasting temperatures of the hot espresso and cold cream on top too. Coffee beans were Brazilian, Guatemalan, Sumatra, Medium-Dark Roast Coffee. The coffee beans were lightly roasted. ICED MATCHA LATTE WITH MATCHA CREAM TOP Wanted to try their matcha as they really advertised Nami Matcha on their menu. First time trying Nami. Super light on the sweetness overall, hardly any honey or agave in their matcha drink. Matcha was grassy, a bit floral, a bit of sweetness in the matcha, a bit of astringency and bitterness at the end that lingers in your mouth. A lot of things going on, yet there was more of an aftertaste of astringency with bitterness at the end that wasn't pleasant. So strange that the matcha flavor was more on the lighter side, since I did add matcha cream top as well. However, I liked this drink more than the espresso con panna. But I would not reorder both drinks. AMBIANCE + SEATS A bit dark and moody place with dark ceilings, wooden chairs and tables. There were a lot of tables and it was packed today! The only available seats were the benches on the side. There were small tables, so I was able to place my drinks there. It is a nice place to hang out. Lots of points for the ambiance. CUSTOMER SERVICE It was good, staff was nice. It was packed and busy, yet they were nice about answering questions and making sure that everyone got good service. PARKING There is street parking, but even when I went on a weekday, it was difficult to find parking. There were neighborhood parking too, but it was far easier to park closer to the streets than in neighborhood street parking due to many tow away signs and private parking signs. I am open to revisiting although the drinks I ordered were not home runs. I felt there were more coffee or matcha drinks to try and their menu intrigued me.

I went with the wildflower iced latte. The cashier said it was a good choice and I also asked someone in line. I thought it was delicious. It could have had more flavoring, but I definitely can tell that the ingredients were of quality. I also walked around and looked at the plants. Pricing was a bit high, but they were very gorgeous and the employee in that shop was friendly and helpful. I highly recommend you stop by!

Another big bonus of this place is they are also dog friendly! They have a large back patio of artificial grass. I was nervous she might pee on it, but she did not.

The large work space had been upgraded with plenty of tables, comfortable seating, and good natural light. The coffee quality had markedly improved. It looks like they have a brand new espresso machine and the staff has clearly been trained on how to use it properly. One of the best espressos I have had in LA.

The playlist is great too and there is an adjacent lounge that you can rent for meetings, parties, or classes. In keeping with the theme of community, they even have a basket where you can leave (or take) an encouraging note, which I think is quite nice. The day of my visit I had a pleasant encounter with barista Izzy. She was as sweet as can be and prepared my Cortado with care and handed it to me with a smile. The roast was smooth and the dollop of almond milk was just right. I'm glad I stopped in. *Street parking.

Kumquat lives off of York Blvd - a street with many families, creatives, and small businesses live. The environment is always wholesome. Their staff are always friendly, and as an experienced barista myself, I can see that their team are also very talented, well trained and very good at quality control. Their espresso is so balanced and sits perfectly center on your palette. Their matcha and hojicha is rich and velvety and seemingly a higher grade product. They work with many roasters, and sell a lot of their beans on their shelves. They also sell a lot of coffee and tea tools. I love everything about coming to Kumquat. Don't skip on their other locations (Loquat and newfound Quat). I'll forever stan this business

    *** Cash not accepted ***…read more It has been a few years since my original visit and it looks like Kumquat Coffee is now known as the coffee shop to get matcha and hojicha lattes. Here are some of the key highlights: * In addition to the 2nd location in Downtown LA and a sister coffee shop Loquat Coffee in Cypress Park, the same owners also opened Fondry Bakery in 2024, a coffee roastery called Quat in Glassell Park in October 2025, and a 2nd Loquat location in Silver Lake in December 2025. * Still no private parking lot and the two public parking lots are still your best bet (5033 Lincoln Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90042 & 1311N N Ave 51, Los Angeles, CA 90042). Otherwise street parking is available. * Still no indoor seating with only few small outdoor chairs and a tiny table. * Our party had the Hojicha Latte (half-sweet $6.50) and Matcha Latte ($6.75). Personally, I strongly discourage anyone from getting the half-sweet option as it made the drink taste a bit watery. The Matcha Latte had full sweetness and it tasted about right, but it was still not as good as some other matcha lattes out there. * No public restroom [Conclusion]: A nice coffee shop to stop by while visiting the boutique shops on York Blvd. Decent matcha drinks, but I still prefer matcha drinks from various cafes in Koreatown if I want something on the next level.
