You have to get there truffle chocolate iced coffee with the truffle coffee ice cubes ! These guys do it right!

Ryan W

The kopi luwak is a fun experience! You have the whole shop to yourself and the owner gives you a ton of information on the process and how to taste it. He even gave us some cigars for the final round

Donna White

Vanilla latte with almond milk was the best I've had. Very helpful baristas, peaceful ambience with fountain and classical music in the background. Great place to work or have meaningful conversation.

@JaumePrimero

The most extensive espresso menu I have seen in Los Angeles. The Funnel Mill team executes with an exactness I have rarely seen anywhere. Sit at the bar to see them at work. Mad coffee scientists!

Ting Kelly

Try the chai here. It takes 10 minutes because they hand chop the spices and boil the milk . But it is worth it! Great relaxing place to work too.

Alex Payne

A bit dark when seated away from the windows but good coffee , free wifi , and decent vegan pastries . Ample street parking around the corner. Plus, a cute German Shepherd snoozing in the corner!

Hank

The chai here is great: there's two kinds that are fresh-brewed and they give you a big pot. The baked goods are great too.

Kirin Kalia

Siphon ftw! Teresa and JC know their beans. Share what you like and they’ll find the right one for you — and remember it the next time you come in

Connie Chiu

Interesting spot with over the top organic coffee , vibe, and brewing style. The iced Ethiopian was good. Ask for samples.

Harel

Turkish coffee takes 20 minutes, but it is worth the wait.

Devin Burke

Best Cortado in the whole world. Ask for the "Turkado"

Matt McCormack

You come here for quality coffee and/or a nice place to work . Espresso , cold drip and siphon coffee are all excellent.

Harel

The most serious cup of coffee I have ever had. This place is impeccable.

Devin Burke

Order their special "Turkish" Cortado . Not on the menu . I call a Turkado. Amazing taste

Leigh

awesome staff who are knowledgable about their beans, they make a great cold brew (ice drip in their terms) with a great chocolate truffle ground. and they make a great grind for take-home too.

Maya Baratz

This place sells a $90 cup of coffee that has been pooped out by batty animals. Have not tried it yet.

Sam Licker

Great teas ! Awesome atmosphere.

Natalie DeVita

This place is super confusing. The dessert is ok, glad it's vegan , but the latte was certainly burnt. Agree it's a good place to work but the decor is so strange and off-putting. Weird vibes.

Matt McCormack

Get the cold drip truffle chocolate coffee (type of bean, not a flavouring).

Zach

One of the few places that will serve you kopi luwak coffee . Atmosphere is eclectic .

Jun Hwang

Great place, amazing tea and coffee , love the sugar-free apple pie !

Rasul Davis

You don't need any tips for Funnel Mill ; their knowledge of their product is so great and the atmosphere is awesome. Enjoy.

Angus Robertson

Hidden gem with a serene Asian vibe opens at 9 a.m.

Gordon Mercer

The iced cofee is incredible, and the staff really knows coffee . The beans roasted in-house are excellent. Read more

Salim Mitha

Iced Dark Chocolate Truffle coffee is awesome. This place opens at 9am.

Brad Barrish

Get the chocolate truffle cold brew . Probably my favorite brew in LA.

Steve Klabnik

Great coffee , you have to ask for the wifi password, but it's free.

Kelsey Moser

10 dollar menu items hit the coffee snob sweet spot for value.

Matt Jones

Exceptional cold brew coffee . Best I've had.

Henry Jose

Great coffee . Awesome, awesome atmosphere. I really really wish they open earlier! At least 8am!

kim halverson

love their healthy herbal tea ! must try it, and their freshly made chai !

Priscilla Zhao

A great study place . Solid drinks!

Harish Venkatesan

dog-friendly! and the coffee/tea is quite on point

Warrent Satt

Amazing collection of premium tea

Amanda Schulze

Sadly was disappointed. The latte itself was, fine, but extremely tiny for a high price. Gluten-free raspberry chocolate dessert was dry. Nice atmosphere if looking for a place to work .

Keiichi Shibuya

They have turkish coffee , european style latte , and sometimes kopi luwak .

Kevin Hart

First time I went here I was like "nah mane, this ain't me." Next time I was like "it's fancy and expensive and imma keep my pinky up and f the haterz"

Tisa Hugues

wonderful tea service

Jason Pope

$4.50 for an espresso shot is a bit overpriced.

Cory Watilo

Bitchiest coffee shop I've ever been to. $5 min for credit card charges, no cell phone/photography signs everywhere, and a "we reserve the right to refuse service" sign 2x bigger than the OPEN sign.

JEERK

Great experiences...can't wait to try it again in October when we're back!

@iamkhayyam

No cell phone use policy in full effect. Love it! The best coffee experience so far! Even have proper, proper chai ! +1

Stephen D'Andrea

They invited me to bring my dog in and gave him treats! Also, coffee ice cubes !

Domingo Rossitto

Cathy Zhu

Blueberry tart and iced coffee

Lily

A hidden gem .

Zeke Franco

Try the Taiwanese Pu-reh - Served with green tea pumpkin seeds .

Ramona Soriano

Not too far from 3rd Street and the beach . Yum teas . Delicious!

Shay
