How's It Going To End?

Finally figured out why I kept seeing so many people hanging out in front of the dry cleaners: it’s a coffee shop with cool midcentury vibes. Love they kept the Googie architecture, and the light sculpture in the bathroom. The hot chocolate was more warm than hot. The ham and cheese croissant was excellent. And the patio is dog friendly!

Nice coffee shop with a relaxed vibe, tasty baked goods, and a pleasant outdoor seating area. The batch brew was very flavorful, they have a nice selection of beans (including La Cabra, an excellent roaster from Denmark), and plenty of space. Being right next to a busy road is a little unfortunate, but I still enjoyed sitting outside in the sun.

My experience was very bad. Service was extremely slow to the point they were probably ignoring me. Which was absurd because they greeted me right when I walked in! Why do that when you’re gonna ignore me anyway? ended up waiting there just looking at them while the employees talked and none of them approached the register. Coffee was just okay. The ham and cheese croissant was good but a little stale even though I was there early. It’s overpriced for what you get. There’s a minimal aesthetic but it might be TOO minimal because there was no trash bin, utensils, or napkins, which didn’t come with my order so it’s kind of essential to have these things out if you’re not gonna provide them! Like they had fully stocked merch shelves but you can’t even throw away your empty cup?

I dont drink coffee but friends of mine do so I go here with them. The Ham and cheese and regular croissants are very good. The iced tea is also good but $6 for a tiny cup with no refill? I will never order it again!

Not sure what the haters are smoking, but I’d be in trouble if I lived near by How’s It Going to End. Cortado 10/10. Decor is minimalistic and the vibes are high. Cute place to catch up with a friend, enjoy a cup solo or work on your laptop. The garden / outdoor sitting area gives major zen. Wish more spots like this existed in LA.
