In Short – Sitting in the shadow of the towering Church of Scientology Celebrity Centre, this dark caffeine dungeon is where bloodshot-eyed, shaggy-haired screenwriters and their ilk commune with their laptops among cushy couches and rigid schoolroom chairs. Revolving artwork from local artists hangs on the main room's walls while the back room evokes a Moroccan den replete with silk floor pillows and carved-wood side tables. In addition to espresso and tea, the cafe's menu includes a handful of pastries and sandwiches.

DARK HIDEAWAY
by slurps at Citysearch
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 at Citysearch
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 at Citysearch
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.
