The Library Coffee House

This spot is so cute and cozy! Madi definitely recommended the Iced Chai Latte. It was absolutely delicious. I also had a bacon, egg and cheese croissant. Tasted heavenly with the apple jam.

Such an amazing little gem! I've been a regular here for awhile now and grabbing a coffee before work always brings me a little joy before my day. The space is cozy, with whimsical atmosphere that makes you feel like you're in the middle of an old time Library. It's always bustling with students and local people co-working, which is nice. The staff are always so friendly and understanding, and will modify your drink if needed. They're also very good at handling the rushes and long lines, and I've never waited too long for my drink. They have LOTS of syrups and milks to choose from if you want to modify your coffee. The selection of pastries and snacks are plenty too. Whenever my parents visit from out of town, this is their favorite spot to order coffee and the spanakopita from.

Lowkey stopped ordering coffee from here because a barista with tinted glasses has no idea how to make coffee. Issues with lattes, mochas, they didn’t know how to make a certain tea latte & doubled down. They also doubled down on a flavored latte that had… minimal flavor, that her coworker perfectly remade. They hand out drinks with the syrup sitting at the bottom… not mixing drinks is a special kind of talent, given it’s not that difficult. Maybe working in coffee for 8 years raised my standards, but I’ll only get a Diet Coke here anymore, and only come for the atmosphere. Not to mention the broken health code regulations, LA county requires food service workers to wear hats. Paying $7 for a drink that’s incorrectly made AND is only remade with an audible side convo telling your coworker that you made it correctly… is not cool. It’s okay to not know how to make drinks, it’s not okay to be unwilling to learn after consistently showing these behaviors for months. The inconsistency in drinks is difficult because drinks turn out different with every barista, and when I see certain baristas, I know it’ll be bad. Otherwise, baristas are nice in general. The manager is awesome. Atmosph

A charming café with a wonderfully cozy atmosphere; the dark interior actually adds to the character rather than taking away from it. The coffee was delicious, and the pastries were a surprisingly pleasant discovery , genuinely better than expected! One sweet touch: I ordered a simple pie and it came beautifully presented with a salad and sauce on the side, which was a nice surprise. However, I’m knocking off a star for the tables - they were visibly dirty and no one was wiping them down. I ended up cleaning mine myself with napkins, which wasn’t a great feeling. Overall a lovely spot worth visiting.

I had a bit of trouble finding a table, and the quality of the items I ordered—the cheesecake and the drink—was unfortunately not what I was hoping for. The service lacked warmth. I share these thoughts in hopes that it helps the team refine things moving forward.
