    Located at lower level of Figat7th between the food hall and Nordstrom Rack. Serves small but curated selection of breakfast and lunch items. Also has specialty drinks like lemon meringue latte and tiramisu cold brew latte. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Plenty of seating in the courtyard area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Good alternative for coffee and light fares for those staying at the intercontinental hotel across the street. Friendly service but can be slow at times. Was here at 9am on a Saturday and only 1 employee. Order at the machine.

    Came here on a Saturday morning. It's located in the outdoor shopping area on the same floor as the food court, but located in its own store to the left. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There isn't any seating inside the store, so it feels more like a grab and go kind of place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You can order on the tablet at the front and wait for your drinks and food at the other end. I got a latte and the soyrizo burrito, which they cut in half. I'm glad they did that because it was huge and I was able to share it. It was a tasty and well-seasoned burrito. They do give paper straws, which is good for the environment but after a while, it tends to fall apart. Would come back here again if I'm in the area.

    A convenient spot in the shopping center! So glad there's other options besides a popular mass coffee chain that rhymes with fartrucks haha I enjoyed cold brew here with cinnamon honey syrup and oat milk and paid around $7. I also had an everything jalapeño croissant warmed up and it was so good even the birds near me wanted to eat it. You order on a tablet though, but the baristas did offer to answer any questions I have but I fear this could slow people down. Maybe just me. I'd like to come back though!

    Nice menu, easy to read.

    The first thing I noticed about this quaint coffee shop next to my work building was the friendly "hello"! I heard from these two sweet men. Why "hello" right back to you sirs. I like the vibe. To order, there are menu tablets available. Since it was not crowded at my 7am arrival I ordered at the counter. I explained that I like my coffee strong with just a bit of oatmilk. He said "no problem!" and did as I asked. The menu is varied. The baked goods looked fresh so I ordered a chorizo cheese croissant. It was yummy and flakey. When I got my drink it was strong and delicious. I will definitely return! Great service goes a long way in my book.

    I tried a matcha latte and an everything jalapeño cream cheese croissant here--both were delicious. I was especially happy to find that the matcha was unsweetened (which can be hard to find), and you have the option to add a sweetener or omit it entirely. They offer a variety of plant-based milks, and overall, the matcha was very flavorful. The café also had a great selection of pastries, including some vegan and gluten-free options. The staff was friendly and helpful, which made for a positive experience. I visited on a Sunday around 9 AM and there was no line, which was a nice bonus. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a very modern and small place, but you can sit down outside at the tables provided in the middle of the outdoor area of the shopping center.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I wouldn't recommend it as a place to study or work from, but it's perfect for relaxing while enjoying your coffee and pastries.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] One thing to note is that it can be a bit tricky to find if you're following Google Maps--you'll need to walk down the stairs or take an elevator from street level, as it's located just below a shopping center. Overall, I definitely recommend checking it out.

    Went to Velo in mid April and really enjoyed my coffee. It was really good and the staff was friendly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The coffee set added to the cute coffee shot vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Would come back to this location!

    Didn't taste like matcha at ALL! Way too sweet. It felt like i was drinking pure sugar. Wasted $30 bucks on 2 drinks, not worth at all.

    I was headed to dinner at the fabulous Holbox, but driving there from Hollywood at rush hour is…read morenever a good idea. So I looked for a coffee spot closer to the restaurant at which I could do some work. Alibi Coffee is only 10-15 minutes from the restaurant, which made it a good candidate--and off I went. It sits on the corner of Washington and Raymond Avenue. While there's one-hour parking on Washington, Raymond seems to offer unlimited parking (other than street cleaning days)--the friendly, helpful barista directed me over there. Inside, it's a tranquil, clean and comfortable environment that mixes contemporary touches with brick industrial vibes. I'm in my cream top era, so I decided to get their Trademark Cream Top Latte, which uses cold brew and house made cream with a hint of brown sugar. The drink was smooth and not too sweet and, all in all, extremely enjoyable. Next time, I might try the Salted Caramel Cream Top Latte. I was warned it was a bit sweeter, but I'd like to see for myself. Wi-Fi seems solid, and there are plenty of outlets (yay!), so this was a great work spot. I'd definitely return anytime I needed to be in this area.

I ended up adding it all. Salted Caramel Latte: I tried this drink the second time around, and I love it. It will be my go-to drink from now on at Alibi Coffee. It's sweet and creamy.

And they are so sweet and do not rush anyone, you can stay here as long as you want. My friends and I WFH so we decided to Work From MemoryLook (WFML) one day together. I'm glad we did! Great pastries in the morning, i had the cremme brûlée donut which had tons of filling, and the pea foam matcha latte which was fantastic. And I had an EXCELLENT chicken Chipotle wrap at lunch that was recommended to me by the gentleman working at memory look. I'm not certain where these wraps are made. Another gentleman would bring them from the building in the same complex. I LOVED my wrap. They have a ton of seating outside too but there aren't any outlets out there so it's harder to WFH out there unless you're fully charged. But was great for separate meetings we all had to attend. The photobooth was fun but we were so thrown off by it taking 8 photos, we had no idea how many poses we would have to come up with hahaha. I would definitely come back here anytime!

    After dinner last night, we were discussing where to go for a second round, and one of my friends…read morerecommended this place. So we decided to come here for coffee or tea and ended up having a really nice time. I used to come here quite often about four years ago. Back then, I really liked their Einspänner and ordered it several times. But the last time I came, I thought it was way too sweet, so I hadn't been back since. It had actually been a REALLY long time since I last visited. And when I used to come here four years ago, I always came in the morning or around lunchtime. Last night was my first time ever coming here at night. My friend told us that they are open until midnight, so that's why we decided to come here after dinner. I had heard that parking here can be a nightmare because there aren't enough parking spaces and people have a hard time finding a spot. But once again, my parking luck was AMAZING! A car pulled out right in front of me just as I arrived, so I was able to park very easily. Another friend arrived later than I did, and she said she couldn't find a parking spot at all. She drove around for quite a while looking for one before finally finding street parking. Last night, we also had some tiramisu, and since I'm pretty sensitive to caffeine, I decided to have a caffeine-free ade instead of coffee or tea. It was a little sweet for my taste, but it was ok. We sat outside on the outdoor patio and talked and talked and talked. We had such a fun time together! However, it was actually pretty cold outside last night. I remember thinking that it felt surprisingly chilly. But what was even crazier was how FREEZING cold it was inside the café! They had the air conditioning turned up so high that both my friends and I felt like we were going to freeze to death. The restroom is inside, and I also went inside to get some water, so I mentioned to one of the male employees that it was freezing inside. He told me that they didn't feel cold at all because they were working, and that THEY were actually feeling really hot. I went back to our table and told my friends what he had said, and they were like, "WHAT?! We're freezing to death over here!" The parking lot here is actually pretty large, so I was wondering why it was so difficult to find a parking spot. Apparently, at night, the left side is the café, while on the right side there is a bar where people can drink and also play games. There was a huge line of people waiting outside the bar last night, so I'm guessing that's probably why the parking lot gets so crowded and it's hard to find a spot. It was also pretty chilly outside last night because of the low temperature, so one thing I wished they had on the outdoor patio was heaters. That would have made sitting outside much more comfortable on a cold night.

A few different YouTubers raved about ROK Coffee & Tea, so I decided to try them out... and it definitely lived up to the recommendations! The MATCHA DUO was EXCEPTIONAL and delicious! It had the perfect amount of sweetness, the perfect creaminess, and the matcha wasn't bitter at all. You can tell they use really good, high-quality matcha because not only could I taste the quality, I could feel it in my energy level too. My sister got the MANGO MATCHA DUO with oat milk and absolutely loved it. My sister's coworker tried the SPARKLING YUZU MATCHA and said it was delicious! She loved that the yuzu flavor wasn't overpowering and said the matcha tasted very high quality. We also got the STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE MATCHA DUO because it was recommended as one of their top picks. We gave it to another one of her coworkers, and she finished it so quick! She said it tasted like a dessert and raved about how delicious and amazing it was! There's seating area in front of the café and as well as inside. The inside is really cute and had a nice atmosphere. The best time to go is early in the morning when open. Customer service was exceptional! Everyone was very kind while at the same time quick and attentive to the line. If there tends to be a line, it moves pretty quickly, and our drinks were ready fast after we ordered. If you get lucky, you can find street parking, but be careful parking on Olympic Blvd. during certain times. Not to worry though because they do have a parking structure, which makes things much easier. Overall, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ROK Coffee & Tea! Everything we tried gets a 10/10 from us! The quality of the matcha, the flavors, the customer service, and the overall experience were all excellent. We will most definitely be back!!!

Overall, I'd stop by again to grab a drink if I happened to be in the area, but probably wouldn't go out of my way for it.

Matcha is rich and bold, there's a good amount so it's not weak. Milk ratio is good so it's not diluted at all. The cream top is nice and thick and doesn't melt into the drink! Matcha Cream Top ($7.75)-- I looooove me a nice and thick cream top and this place does it amazingly. It's thick and perfectly sweetened and doesn't melt with the drink/ice. It stays perfectly thick and still and above the matcha unless you mix it in. The matcha is also really nice and rich. None of the bland or grassy taste. Just genuine good matcha! Chocolate Forest ($7.75)-- Basically same as above but the cream on top tastes like Milo/Ovaltine mixed in. It's a nice and sweet nostalgic taste. Not a hint of bitterness so if you want mocha/dark chocolate this is not the one for you. It's more happy kid hot chocolate vibes. Overall I really like this place for their matcha and would get it again. Pricing is steep but all good matcha goes for around $8 nowadays.
