In Short – The purr of La Marzocco espresso and Clover machines is usually overwhelmed by the buzzing mob of Silver Lake's coffee aficionados at this neighborhood caffeine haunt. French baroque motifs frame the elite space, where nonchalant chicks in Chococat baby tees rub elbows with old-school skate punks, tattooed soccer moms and alt-trepreneurs. Tableside servers brew a deluxe list of limited premium blends with a sliding scale of complexity for varying levels of coffee snobs. There's the ubiquitous plunging French press; the scientific drip brew of Chemex; the hi-tech, vacuum-brewed…
Editor's Tips
- Know Before You Go:
- Although the space opens daily at 7am, cooked breakfasts aren't served until at least 8am.
- Save Time:
- Weekends are jam-packed, particularly at brunch time, when lines for tables flow out the door. Seats are more plentiful on weekdays and off hours; on weekends arrive before 11am to beat the rush.
- The Extras:
- Walking distance from the Silver Lake Dog Park, the shop is a great place to stop for Oscar's house-made dog biscuits.
- What to Drink:
- The menu offers 22 blended teas and many herbal varieties. There's also Valrhona chocolate milk and a virgin "mojoto" lime spritzer. Both the tea and regular house Clover-brewed joe are more affordable than the table-brewed coffees.

The coffee here is solid, but I really
by adriannaa
The coffee here is solid, but I really keep coming back for their doughnut holes served with vanilla bean spiked whipped cream.

Weekend Brunch with Friends
by Main Street Graphics
One of my favorite places for breakfast with friends. I had Wieser Farms Fingerling Potatoes, Bacon Mushroom / Wild mushrooms, scrambled eggs, and my favorite, Vanilla Latte. Small portions but I was full, so not complaining. Everything was delicious. Parking is in very short demand so be prepared to drive a bit to find a spot. They don't rush you which is great.

Why so RUDE?
by dave7133
6:50 AM
La mill not open. OK. surprised. (just seems a little LATE for a coffee place, but then, trendy folks arise a litttle later)
I'll wait 'til 7.
7:05 -- door opens I mention that it is 7:05. no response.
I order a lb of whole bean espresso, from the man at the register and mention that it is 7:05.
"well, our register says 7"
I say, lightly, well gee, Intelligentsia opens at 6!
"Well, you go there then!"
ARE YOU JOKING???
lamill, you:
1) OPEN VERY LATE FOR A COFFEE JOINT.
2) OPEN EVEN LATER EVEN THOUGH YOU CAN SEE US OUTSIDE AT 7
3) ARGUE OVER THE TIME with the customer
4) INVITE A CUSTOMER TO GO TO THE COMPETITION.
this is the kind of arrogance that damages business. I must assume that this attitude comes from management.
I have never been treated rudely at intelligentsia or any other coffee place -- ever.

WARNING!!!! HIT & RUN INCIDENT
by cloud0301
after having over priced coffee and over priced desserts at lamill i found out that my car which was parked in the rear parking lot of the premises was hit and the person responsible for the damage to my car had left without a note. i noticed 2 survaillance cameras and told the manager/owner about the incident but she was very INDIFFERENT and could care less about what had happened to one of her customers and simply left on her black cayenne. i know this incident was out of her control but her lack of concern and lack of sympathy really upset me and my friends.I WILL NO LONGER PATRONIZE LAMILL COFFEE BOUTIQUE AND WILL SHARE THIS INSULTING EXPERIENCE WITH ALL OF MY FRIENDS!!!
- Cons: WARNING!!!! HIT & RUN INCIDENT

Beautiful but expensive
by terelui04
I must say that I recently visited this boutique and really like it. However the prices are really insulting. I end up paying $24 for a Risotto that did not even come with bread or salad. That is really ridiculous, specially considering that it is not a high restaurant but just a cafeteria after all.
I hope that you can be more conscious of our times and adjust your prices to be more sensitive of the economic reality.A place can be very beautiful but if the prices are unrealistic then the beauty becomes superficial. It takes away a lot of points.
Good luck!!!
