Silverback Coffee of Rwanda — Restaurant in El Segundo

Initially was gonna give this place a decent score, until the service with attitude. First off, place is ran by one guy (with attitude) who has to make pour overs, cappuccino, flat whites, attend the cash register, etc... Perhaps as to his whole bad attitude. Second, asked for a 16 oz, got the 12 oz, served with a "here" remark as he slams it down to the counter. Then go back and ask him if what he gave me was the 16oz, he goes no its the 12. After I tell him I asked for the 16oz, he angrily shakes his head, pours me a 16oz, slams it to the counter again, and goes HERE. If people are paying you $6 for a pour over or $4.50 for drip coffee to support small business, versus choosing to go to Starbucks for $2 coffee, at least be nice...

Have been a 'whatever - large coffee' guy forever. Curiously on my first visit just walking by I ask what a Pressed Coffee is, and he gets crazy excited - starts showing me the press, talking through how he makes it, how it'll taste and not give me caffeine crashes. I'm like 'whoa...easy there...settle down...I'll try it'. Amazing taste, no bitterness...one of the best coffees I've had. And no crash or high...just pleasantly awake and productive the whole afternoon. Told him it was awesome and he offers to teach me to do it at home next time I come over. Needless to say I'm heading back to both get another one but also learn. Exactly the type of small business owner we need to support in this bigbox / chain world....

Hate to give a negative review not being able to actually try to their coffee. But that’s the point…showed up at 8 am, 30 minutes after opening, and no one was there. Hours in the building show it should be open. Empty. Parking is hidden in a poorly labeled lot around gates office building parking. Have to turn into off PCH, kinda of a PITA. Seems like a quality place and likely serves the surrounding office buildings much better than the Bunns and Kuerigs that have been bastardizing coffee for...
