Finally a coffee shop that offers coffee and espresso with consideration to the particular changes of the flavors on your taste buds and in your mouth. Prettymuch every coffee shop out there especially "Starbucks and Coffee Bean & Tea leaf" has for a long time been able to get away with serving caffinated dirt water (and actually competed with it!) because nobody (at least in America) knew any better. Rarely will I ever order coffee in a coffee shop. But now that someone has made the first move to step up to the plate and think of the coffee and espresso bean in the same way that wine tasters think of wine, other coffee shops will hopefully someday notice that people now know better and why there business is droping. Thanks for steping up to the plate Funnel Mill Coffee!

i was so impressed by FUNNEL MILL that i was compelled to become a member of citysearch just so that i could write this review. i'm a screenwriter who lives in the area, and having searched near and far all over los angeles for "the perfect" coffeeshop - i've finally found it. the furnishings and decor are minimalist and stylish: perfect for taking meetings as a surrogate office; romantic enough for a date (there are several high boys with high chairs tucked away); soothing and distraction-free enough to go there to write or get serious work done; and living-room comfortable enough to take friends for a midday coffee, or hang out after a movie at night. the owners are chill, savvy and are willing to keep flexible hours to cater to their customers. IE they won't kick people out to "shut down". they understand the need for privacy and quiet, and the furniture is spaced out enough to provide the ideal creative haven or surrogate office/meeting space. AND THE COFFEE IS AMAZING. I can't wait to go back to try more items! it's like going on vacation to the coolest coffee and tea shop imaginable. free samples, unique and FRESH drinks, tasty treats, and an incredibly relaxing, inviting atmosphere. cannot reccommend this place highly enough.

My girlfriend an I stopped by this charming place looking for a cup of coffee. Instead, we got an experience. The siphon-brewed rare coffees are amazing, as are the teas. The staff indulged all of our questions, and let us try free samples as well as giving us free pastries. The atmosphere is great, whether you're going out with friends or looking to get some serious work done. Having just opened, Funnel Mill is soon to become a Santa Monica landmark.
