What People Are Saying About Stir Crazy Coffee Shop

In Short
This coffee nook provides a rustic respite from the trendy clutter of Melrose boutiques. Writer types with laptops flock here during the day, drinking cup after cup of java and looking askance at patrons who talk too loudly. Wood paneling on the walls resembles logs, and benches are upholstered in cowboy fabric. Gourmet sandwiches with such sophisticated fillings as goat cheese, roasted peppers and fresh basil are served, as are many desserts like Boston cream pie.

this coffeeshop is quiet and has good prices. People sit outside with their dogs giving it a neighborhood feel. The prices are fair and the staff is generally pretty nice.

I've been challenging myself as a student at UCLA to explore the non-Starbucks/CoffeBean/Peet's cafes in the West LA/Santa Monica area and have been to quite a number of local cafes in the area. I went to Stir Crazy late at night to study - bad idea. There is a lot of mood lighting and it's very difficult to read. However, drinks are great (they have for-here mugs), service is amazing (the barista was very friendly and came multiple times to fill up people's coffee), prices are average, pretty sure it's cash only, and there is a tiny tiny parking lot behind the shop but you'll find more luck on the street late at night.

This is one of the most fantastic coffee shops to be found in Los Angeles. If you've had it with all the major chains of Starbucks, Pete's, and Coffee Bean and Leaf, you should definitely check this place out. It is reminds me of the neighborhood feel of the coffee shops in San Francisco. The staff is always friendly, remembering your drinks and name. Can't beat having free internet and the menu is quite inventive and ambitious for a small shop. Parking can seem to be a problem but I just found out that there's always free parking in the back of the shop. Lot's of locals, industry folk and artisans. Can't say enough about how much I love this place. Oh, and it's insanely clean!!!
