A Guide to Coffee Shops Near The Grove
Verve Coffee Roasters
Situated along W 3rd St, Verve is one of the most aesthetically gifted coffee shops near The Grove, given its bright bohemian ambiance, warm earthy tones, wood-paneled counter, vibrant plants, chic furnishings, and tantalizing aroma of gourmet java that’s been diligently roasted in-house. The attention to detail that has gone into designing this adorable abode with a delightful balance of charm and utility makes it an easy go-to for daytime meetings with colleagues, long overdue coffee dates, and solo study sessions.
La La Land Kind Cafe
Nestled inside The Grove, La La Land Kind Cafe offers guests an open, elegant setting underscored by minimalistic white surfaces, posh gray couches, pale wooden beams laid across the ceiling, and an enchanting, umbrella-shaded terrace lined with colorful flowers. The picturesque decor serves as an accomplice to thoughtfully crafted, rewardingly delicious signature beverages like the butterfly latte. La La Land Kind Cafe also hires foster youth and is on a mission to normalize kindness by creating a space where guests walk in and feel a true sense of joy.
Manna Cafe
Located across the street from Television City, Manna Cafe provides patrons a refined yet relaxed culinary experience accentuated by gram-worthy brunch fare ranging from open-faced bagels and artisan sandwiches to health-conscious salads and toasts. Should you meander on in at the tail end of an exhaustive work day, feel free to take a load off with a glass of fine wine – they’ve got a carefully curated collection to choose from.
Andante Coffee Roasters
If you truly love and appreciate the art of java, search no further than Andante, which has been a center for coffee culture in the neighborhood for over 20 years and is passionate about intentionally roasting the world’s finest beans on-site. Furthermore, they have a cozy lounge area complete with minimalistic industrial vibes, numerous tabletops, touches of greenery, windows that let the sunshine pour on through, and amenities for a productive day.
Coffee Corner
Tucked inside the Original Los Angeles Farmers Market – which got its start in July 1934, when a dozen farmers and a few other merchants parked their trucks at the corner of 3rd & Fairfax and sold their fresh produce from the back of the trucks – Coffee Corner has been a local favorite and part of the bustling Market scene since 1946. The friendly folks behind the counter here serve espresso drinks made the Old World Way, as well as refreshing herbal lemonade and scrumptious pastries.
Waffleshot
Occupying a walk-up stall snuggled amongst the booths lining the Original Farmers Market – Waffleshot is a necessary addition to any shopping spree! The concept was born as the founders were searching for an eco-friendly way to serve espresso. Made out of high-quality ingredients, this is not your ordinary waffle cone or chocolate treat. The Waffleshot holds hot, cold, and frozen contents. Shaped into a cup, the waffles are then hand coated and layered with the finest chocolate. There is an extra layer nestled at the bottom, making it the ultimate drinking experience
