LA｜Olive & James ☕️ Japanese Matcha & Basque Cheesecake

Went back to LA recently and visited this café that’s been buzzing online. The vibe inside is cozy and chill—great for studying, reading, or catching up with friends. And it’s on Melrose—finally a solid drink spot in an area where I never knew what to sip while shopping! 🍵 Matcha Latte – Five syrup options (or none). I went with vanilla + oat milk—really nice! 🍰 Basque Cheesecake – Lusciously creamy and slightly runny in the middle. First few bites were amazing, though it got a bit rich toward the end. Went around 10 AM and it was quiet, but by 11 it started filling up. Go early if you want peace and focus! 📌 Olive & James 📍 7473 Melrose Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90046 #LosAngeles #LALife #LA #CoffeeShop #LAMelrose #LACafe #LADining #Matcha
