LOS ANGELES COFFEE SHOPS

LOS ANGELES COFFEE SHOPS

Not Starbucks, Peet's, Coffee Bean or any of those major chains... the more local coffee shops are always the best ones. While some may have multiple locations, these are the top coffee shops around the city. Note: I'll continue to update this list as I try more spots!

Another great spot to really focus on whatever it is you need to get done with some premium coffee. You can find their coffee at Whole Foods as well.

Alfred Coffee
@MKTravelLifestyle
Not my first place I'd go to, but this is a popular spot to visit especially if you want the "classic" LA experience and possibly see someone famous. There's also often Yeastie Boys Bagels food truck parked outside of it which has great breakfast bagels. There's also a lot of seating here.

Two Guns Espresso
@MKTravelLifestyle
My personal go--to choice for a quick and easy breakfast. My favorite order is an iced monster (essentially a flat white with an extra shot of espresso) and their breakfast sandwich with all the add-ons: avocado, cheese, and prosciutto.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Hi there! I'm based in Los Angeles, but love to travel. My life goal is to see as much of the world as possible. All my travel itineraries are based off my own personal research, travels, and experiences. I've been to 35+ countries and still counting. I love experiencing the finer aspects of travel, but certainly won't shy away from budget options if they come highly recommended. All in all, I value experiences and memories over everything else. Hope you enjoy and have as wonderful of a time as I did!
