Coffee Shop in LA

Our daily routine always start with a cup of coffee, here are some of the coffee shop we've tried in Los Angeles:

1. Intelligentsia Coffee - Silver Lake. Multiple locations.
2. Coffee MCO - Koreatown
3. Blue Bottle Coffee - Multiple locations

Intelligentsia Coffee

It all started in 1995 when Doug Zell and Emily Mange find it difficult to get high quality fresh roasted coffee. Eventually they decided its time to open their own café by roasting their own coffee in store.

They have 2 roasting facilities located in Chicago & Los Angeles. Besides that, they also own a Coffeebar and Training Lab in New York providing educational services to wholesale client and the public.

We went to the branch at Sunset Junction in Silver Lake, it also happens to be their first store outside of Chicago. They also have several locations throughout Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Boston and Austin. 

 

Coffee MCO

We had breakfast at Coffee MCO before heading off to our next destination - Las Vegas. This is located in the heart of Koreatown so that's perfect for us because we just check out from the Airbnb in Koreatown.
