I decided to stop by Fareground after seeing it so many times on IG, and it did not disappoint! I ordered the Thai basil steak bowl and, damn, it was amazing! And the banana foam latte is my new addiction. I'll definitely be back earlier next time to try breakfast. Parking is a little tricky, but I found a parking lot a block away with two hours of free parking. Thank you, Faregrounds team! read more

I experienced a complete lack of professionalism. The staff was rude and unprofessional, which left a very negative impression. The food and coffee were average and nothing special, but the poor service really stood out--and not in a good way. I was very disappointed with the overall experience and won't be coming back. read more

THE SPICY DON IS MY FAVORITE SANDWICH IN THE WORLD!! Crispy chicken breast, pesto, straticella, vodka sauce and served on a crispy baguette is just all a girl can dream of. I also had the miso caeser with crispy chicken and it slapped SO HARD. Their portions are amazing (I either split w my coworker or save half for dinner). The quality is so amazing. Im so glad they popped up in Beverly Hills because this is exactly what we needed. I'm also a matcha addict and love their oat milk matcha latte. They use ceremonial grade matcha!!!! I CRY! The workers are always so sweet (amazing front of house girlies and baristas). Also, shoutout to Natalie who seems to run their IG page cause they be posting some beautiful food pics and videos. I also see her cheffing it up in the back. I live laugh love faregrounds!! Brb gonna get the spicy don rn. read more

Absolutely obsessed with their THAI BASIL STEAK sandwich! I love the pickled veggies and I wish they put more! Highly recommend. Rate: 100000/10 I also got a blueberry matcha latte with oat milk, but I feel like the blueberry is so light. The matcha itself was good. Rate: 7/10 I want to try the strawberry foam matcha latte next time. Service was pretty quick! Workers are sweet too! There's table inside and cute merch you can buy. read more

Called Fairgrounds for over an hour trying to place an order--no answer. Finally drove over to order in person for a Caesar wrap, and the moment I walked in, a staff member said, "Sorry, no more food orders." Total waste of time. If you're not taking orders, answer the phone or communicate it clearly. Poor service and zero consideration for customers. read more

Superb service. Lots of organic options, non-dairy milks, organic sweeteners and teas. Great food options. Fresh, big portions. read more

45 minute wait for a chicken wrap is wild! Definitely order before showing up and take it to go because the place is very small.

This cafe surely caught my weak spot on petite gorgeous space with slow relaxing ambiance. Besides, it's one of my most favorite neighborhood, not because it sold all the fancy luxury goods, but I just loved how walkable the area was which wasn't that common in LA. Plus point was plenty of parking structure nearby, most of which were free for first 2 hours. The space literally looked like a tea garden and it's consistently busy but not overly crowded, which was just perfect. The attendant was so welcoming and accommodating, including for making my sandwich customization request happened. I tried their #1 favorite - Spicy Don, which by default was supposedly served with fried breaded chicken breast fillet, but I asked mine to be substituted with roasted one. Despite the name, it wasn't spicy at all so if you had zero spicy tolerance, still go for it since it did taste luscious. The idea of combining it with straciatella cheese was brilliant and I'd never thought before spicy vodka sauce could go well with pesto sauce. The best highlight was doubtlessly their baguette which came in precisely right texture being fluffy inside but so crispy outside. For a cafe in Beverly, I felt like the price and size were quite normal. I wouldn't really recommend the drink as for me the brown sugar foam matcha latte was just okay. Despite having it with light ice, I felt like my drink was bit watered down and the matcha wasn't as bold as I expected. Besides, the foam was bit clumpy and the brown sugar flavor didn't really stand out. Overall I would still recommend it for the sandwich, and some people did say the salad was also good so prolly would try that one next! read more

I ordered the breakfast burrito & a blueberry matcha. Breakfast burrito was amazing, I chose grass-fed beef as my protein and it didn't disappoint. One of the best breakfast burrito I had in a while. The matcha on the other hand was not good at all... It was hard for me to even drink it. Service was pretty good and friendly. The atmosphere is a nice sit down cafe with people studying or taking calls, it's very chill but a bit small when crowded. read more

This place is clean and beautiful and their açai bowls are the best I've ever had. I am not normally a fruit kind of person but these people make it right no matter what time of day all day long they serve it. It's delicious. I can't believe I just figured out this place even existed. The service is great. I really love Patricia. She's very sweet and the ambience is almost always busy. The line does move quickly. read more

The Americano here tastes like hot water. The coffee to water ratio is completely off. Disappointing to order a black coffee for it to just taste like water... read more

I came here almost everyday and I'm treated and embraced with the warmest smiles and energy from Emily and Lauren! They are so sweet and amazing, remember all of my favorite orders and quirky customized treats. The coffee and matcha are amazing, lately I've been obsessed with the maple matcha but my year round favorites are the salted vanilla latte and the rose matcha. Def come here for lunch too, yummy salads and sandwiches. read more

dropped by with i was with my friend since we were in the area and i'm so glad we did!! we got the thai basil sandwich, miso ceasar salad, along with the rose matcha and saffron oat latte. wait time was a bit long for our meal and drinks, but i didn't mind the wait after tasting the food and drinks we got. both drinks did not feel heavy or overly creamy which i really loved, the matcha tasted refreshing and honestly, the best matcha rose latte i've had-- most rose flavored drinks have the risk of tasting too overly floral and soap tasting but not this one from faregrounds. the saffron latte was also super delicious with the perfect ratio of milk to espresso, with subtle floral and earthy notes which i enjoyed. now for the food, OMG it was so flavorful and i could tell they were using fresh ingredients too. the thai basil sandwich had the MOST perfect toasted bread, it was so soft yet crunchy, the perfect texture to be paired with the pickled veggies, tender beef, and dressing. tbh, this bread will be living rent free in my head from now on. the miso ceasar salad wrap was amazing as well, the breading of the chicken was to perfection, crispy and kept the insides of the chicken juicy still. The miso dressing it came with was pretty flavorful with tangy notes that contrasted well with the rest of the wrap. In conclusion, i will be returning to try the rest of the menu.. read more

The cutest and most delicious spot in BH! Everything is super yummy (and aesthetic ) from the sandwiches to the lattes. Can't wait to go back the next time I'm in Beverly Hills! read more

I used to love coming to this coffee shop, it is so cute and close to my job, however they have recently become extremely busy and don't seem to know how to navigate the demand. I came in yesterday and the coffee was terrible instead of asking them to remake it then because they were so busy I decided to try again today. They continuously say it will be 5 minutes for the coffee but my wait today was 20 minutes as a walk in. While they haven't been accepting phone orders the staff still prioritizes mobile orders instead of walk ins so there are a bunch of coffees sitting out and a bunch of people still waiting around. When I checked on my order I noticed people that ordered after received their orders before and were already gone. The staff attitude was also extremely unpleasant today. Hit or Miss read more

good iced blueberry matcha, but did not expect to get such a small size. it may be my fault since i ordered on the kiosk and did not see the option to upgrade to a 16oz, but for $7 I thought that was the size I was getting, but ended up being a tiny little cup. I appreciate them using organic milks, and the flavor was great, just the size was a little devastating for me. I guess i'm just used to sizes and prices in orange county. cute shop though. read more

Coffee: My coworkers and I come here daily for our coffees and matchas. As someone who takes coffee very seriously, I love their cortado with whole milk. The girls at the front are always amazing and they remember my order every time!! I love that they have a point system cause I've already gotten $5 off multiple times from it. Food: I've tried their breakfast burrito, miso Caesar salad, spicy don sandwich, southwest salad, and croissant. Everything has been 10/10 and fresh. So glad we found this hidden gem!! Also, I'm always able to find street parking in the front! read more

Faregrounds Beverly Hills is located on Roxbury Drive. Perfect spot being close to a lot of medical offices nearby. The food item choices is that of a cafe style aesthetic. The ambiance is of a sterile modern setting. The staff is very friendly, and I love the plant decor throughout the cafe. The place is very clean which I like. Now for the food. I ordered a tuna sandwich known as the Sea Master with Matcha Latte and Oat Milk. The sandwich had a crunchy texture dominant pickled onion taste that was flavorful from the first bite. The matcha was the standard ceremonial matcha (I consider myself a matcha expert lol!), although I couldn't really taste nor feel the texture of the oat milk upon consumption. *Actual rating is a 3.75* The app won't let you put anything other than whole stars in rating * If you need a quick pick me up and you're in the Beverly Hills area, Faregrounds is there for you to satisfy all your hunger needs. read more

Faregrounds is one of the best coffee shops I've been to!! From the moment you walk in, you can feel how much care and love goes into this place. The owners are some of the most genuine, hardworking people you'll ever meet, and their integrity and dedication show in everything - from the quality of the coffee to the way they treat their customers. The drinks are SO GOOD!! Their housemade flavored syrups are honestly game-changing -- you can taste the difference! Every drink feels thoughtfully crafted, never too sweet, just perfectly balanced. And the food? Absolutely delicious. You can tell they put real effort into making everything fresh and flavorful. The ambience is always so welcoming and comfortable! It's the kind of place where you want to stay awhile, chat with friends, or just enjoy a quiet moment with your coffee. I honestly wish they could open more locations. If you haven't been yet, you're missing out! read more

I have nothing but good things to say about things place. It's a cute little cafe located in a nice area in Beverly Hills. Upon arrival I have greeted and helped by 3 wonderful ladies (one might've been training), who were very nice and very helpful. I ordered the. Ktown sandwich and a matcha latte, both of which were delicious. They had the perfectly balance of flavors and tasted of fresh ingredients.

Thank you so much for correcting the situation, I'm glad faregrounds has integrity and amazing customer service. Yesterday I tried the spicy don and banana matcha - both were so delicious.

I really want to try your other options next. read more

Came here for the miso Caesar salad wrap expecting it to be bomb but i wish the kitchen did instead. Genuinely the MOST uncomfortable environment ever. if you aren't a rich white person they will stare you down HARD.(the customers and cashier) the caesar wrap was mid and so overpriced for what it actually was. the miso dressing is confusing and just didn't fit well with the wrap over all. had their matcha and as a asian who goes to a lot of matcha places in LA this is by far the worst. Staff needs to be more respectful and up their customer service. read more

The Spicy Don, is out of this world. The roll is crispy on the outside, warm inside the vodka sauce, and crispy chicken remind of an old school Italian restaurant and the walnut pesto it's the proverbial green icing on the cake.

Faregrounds - "Spicy Don" Chicken Sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

I have been seeing this place on TikTok for a few days now and decided to make a trip from Westwood to try it out. Was it worth it? Id say yes. The place is located next to two parking structures so parking won't be an issue. They have adequate amount of tables so sitting won't be an issue as well. They have a kiosk you can order from or you can order from the two operating registers. Im a big coffee person so their interesting coffee options caught my eye (which is why I initially went) I ended up ordering the saffron latte. Very interesting and delicious Next we decided to hit the food options and ended up with sandwiches. We got the spicy don, sexy southwest and thai basil steak(spicy, so be careful if you can't handle heat). All the sandwiches were between $17-18 which i would say is a normal price for the area. My favorite had to be the sexy southwest. Overall food was great, customer service was great, coffee was delicious and the vibes were immaculate!! PS: Don't mind the long paragraph im trying to become a yelper and give useful detailed reviews read more

Updating my review, i love an owner who cares enough to reply personally. The burrito was sub par and yes I ordered it off another platform but even for $18 bucks it's not great, but i will definitely give it another shot when I come back. Owner offered a comped burrito next time I'm in the area which I'm grateful to know he cares but I never take free meals for bad reviews I will gladly pay for another shot and hopefully it's much better the 2nd time! read more

Fare Grounds is such a hidden gem in Beverly Hills. It's a cozy little coffee shop with seriously delicious drinks and food. Their salted vanilla cold foam is next-level creamy, lightly sweet, and just the right amount of salty. I'd go back for that alone!
