Head to Koreatown for ‘Awesome Coffee’

You’ve had good coffee. You’ve had great coffee. But have you had Awesome Coffee? With mismatched hip furniture and a bright, airy space overlooking Wilshire Boulevard, Awesome Coffee is the best place to unwind after a trip at LACMA. This hip coffee shop provides great no-nonsense coffee, with iced drinks served in mason jars. For non-coffee guests, they also provide a selection of teas and delicious desserts. You can never go wrong with a very berry waffle, which is a large waffle topped with berries and liquid nitrogen ice cream. It is the perfect snack to cool you off after a day under the potent SoCal sun.
