It's a great place after all

by B Hanes

I go there for tea at least once a week. They have a big selection of Yogi and Celestial. A friend introduced me to that place. In the beginning I was hesitant of what to think of that coffee shop. It didn't take me long to become a fan. I go there for the cool, laid-back atmosphere. The staff is welcome and sweet. You'll see a lot of people on their laptops. The fact it's open till late every day is a great plus. But beware the crowd that follows at those times. C'est ca!

• Pros: Service, Staff, Menu, Atmosphere, Decor, Lighting
• Cons: late night creeps

DARK HIDEAWAY

by slurps

Definately agree that the attitude of the people who work there isn't always the friendliest, but who cares. The coffee and atmosphere there by far makes up for the two minutes you have to deal with the person behind the counter. I suggest you grab some coffee, one of their yummy desserts, and kick back in one of their many dark corners and people watch. Its Hollywood after all!!!!!!

• Pros: great coffee and atmosphere
• Cons: parking! OMG!!! don't go if your in a rush.

SNOTTIEST BARISTA'S IN L.A.!!

by shollywoodgirl

I go to this place OFTEN because I live in the Hollywood Hills & it's the only coffee shop in the area. Each time I go is terrible & I always swear I won't go again, but I always end up going back because it's so close. The two things I like about this place is the coffee (they use Italian espresso) and it's delicious, and they also allow dogs inside. However, each time I go is ruined by the terrible attitudes of the staff. They are pretentious for no reason, and very rude. I have talked to a lot of people in the area, and they all agree it's a very unpleasant place to go. PLEASE, someone open another coffee shop in the area!

• Pros: close by, allow dogs
• Cons: horrible service & wait staff, creepy, dark, gloomy

Where to begin!?

by pravada17

This is my favorite place to go and regroup my thoughts and regain focus.

I literally can not think of one single negative thing to say about this place.

If you haven't been here before I recommend bringing a laptop or a book ordering an ice tea and a desert and vegging with your shoes off in the Moroccan themed dark room for a few hours.

• Pros: The anything goes enviroment!
• Cons: Cash only.

Nice location

by m_raven415

For a place in Hollywood, the price is very un-Hollywood. My friend and I randomly chose this place to work for our weekly Sunday meeting. The blue interior was very nice. We had to stay close to the door because it was very dark inside. The coffee was great along with the shake that my friend had. The person working was so friendly. I totally love the location also. There are quite a few restaurants on that same block if you want a place to eat after spending the day at Bourgeois Pig.

• Pros: Great value, nice location, free wireless
• Cons: a little too dark
