the coffee is truly excellent - you can tell that the barista puts a lot of time and attention to making sure that you get the perfect cup of coffee. it takes about 5+ minutes to brew. they have coffee beans from all different regions, each with different tasting notes. i couldn't taste any of the notes in my coffee (tobacco?), but i could tell it was tasty. it was also very expensive - a cup of drip coffee costs over $5. my chocolate chip muffin was very good, but the shop didn't have any forks for me to eat it with. there is limited seating, but i never see this shop crowded. it seems like a great idea with the wrong location - it needs a more upscale neighborhood. on santa monica boulevard, it's just up the street from hooters and the 3rd street promenade. not really the $5-cup-of-coffee kind of crowd.
