Series A Coffee

Series A Coffee sits a short walk from Rodeo Drive and treats coffee as an experience: ethically grown beans, roasted in small batches, poured with what the company calls precision and care. The name is a wink at venture capital, which in this postcode lands squarely on its intended audience, and the room answers with modern minimalism and natural textures. What sets the board apart is range. Organic, plant-based and gluten-free options run through it, artisanal pastries come from LA bakers, and the seasonal menu rotates single origins. The creative drinks are the reason to come. A mango sticky rice cream tea, a honeycomb toffee latte and a sweet potato coffee all sit there, and the matcha side includes a strawberry version. They run tasting sessions and local art showcases too, with community pop-ups through the year. We would take the strawberry matcha and the window seat.
