I used to enjoy coming here for the coffee. Many of the baristas are super nice, and the quality was usually good.
However, the inconsistent closing hours have become a real problem. They used to close at 7pm, then it changed to 5pm. A few weeks ago, they closed at 4pm, then 3:30pm, and today 2pm! Meanwhile, other coffee shops in the area remain open, so this feels like a management issue, or maybe the staff isn’t being treated or paid properly.

I was in here today when a man disregarded the signs everywhere marking that the place is currently pick up only. When a customer noticed staff they responded right away, the woman kindly and respectfully asked the man to use the out door seating and he became very rude and loud and mean, yet she was calm and apologetic the whole time. We are all doing our best to deal with the pandemic and it's wonderful people like this worker and everyone at blue Bottle trying to to their part that will make all the difference. If you're looking for coffee in West Hollywood these guys deserve...
