I've been here several times and have had mixed feelings about the way the staff greets their guests. Not very friendly nor personable. Sometimes I'll get the cold fish handshake version of a "hello" hardly ever get a greeting really. The coffee is good, I've had a variety of their drinks, starting with my favorite a vanilla latte hot, pretty good not too sweet wich is perfect for me. The 2nd & 3rd drinks are just regular coffee both hot and iced. Though I will say I do find myself reminiscing occasionally about the iced coffee, I'd say it's pretty good. Lastly & definitely LEAST is the sorry excuse of a chai latte. WOW!!! DO NOT order the Chai, the best way to describe it is as hot water with some cinnamon sprinkled into a cup. No body whatsoever and completely bland. I've only made the mistake once. But spare yourself & don't order it. You've been warned. As for the food options I've had the cheesy spinach croissant, not worth it at all. Was bland and there was hardly any cheese or spinach in the actual croissant. And finally the chocolate brownies, very chewy very moist and a nice size pastry. I actually split this with someone usually, don't think it's worth $4.50 tho. I think if you're going to price things high make sure the food & drinks are up to par & actually meet the price range in taste. Bigger drink sizes would be nice too but I may...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreIf youāre from a bumf*ck college town this place will probably be extremely familiar to you: burnt coffee, 12 kinds of sad vegan hockey puck snacks on offer at the register, and a āslow scrambled eggsā dish which resembles the first plate of eggs you ever made for your mom. (āAā for effort) The ciabatta that comes with it is like 1/3 of the cruddy dinner roll you get when you sit down at The Olive Garden before ordering. Tax and tip on that and youāre like āDamn I gotta go grocery shopping this is a low point in my potential self-care.ā If you arenāt reflecting on what made you finish eating those eggs, youāre not paying enough attention to your life.
Even better though is this incredibly petty, arbitrary rule where they turn off the WiFi then briefly resurrect it from 2pm-7pm. This is like a middle class personās communist dictatorship. I get it, you donāt want a freelance farm posting up every day. So either turn it off all the time and go full San Francisco-bitterā or get a life. I actually just feel bad for the staff who have to relay this genius employerās personal prison games with a straight face. There are literally never less than three other customers going āwhat? No WiFi? Why? Huh? But they had it here before? Til 2? What?ā š„“š Nice...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreHabitat Coffee is a large, wood-accented neighborhood cafe offering coffee, breakfast, lunch & pastries. Itās located on Eagle Rock Blvd in Glassell Park neighborhood of LA. This coffee shop has vast diverse items on their menu. Moreover, they have an abundant of healthy food and smoothie drinks.
Its rustic indoor design, high ceiling and pretty artwork wall are an eye opener for first time visitors such as myself. I even notice a fellow customer, April, a young cute Latina, taking photos of the art-paintings on the north wall; and in the process I was caught in one of her photos winking like Romeo š. Lol. Ok, letās get back on this review.
The cafeās atmosphere is very peaceful and relaxing with good music playing on the background. I perused their menu and was hoping to get an Egg Croissant sandwich but sadly their kitchen was closed. I ordered a Tuna Melt Cheese Sandwich and a Red Eye Latte (12oz). Both were bloody good.
Service was on point. Free Wifi. Plenty of seats (indoor/outdoor) in a very spacious setting. Prices seem fair for the area. Staff was cordial and competent. Free wifi and washroom. Ample of street parking. Overall, this is a nice cafe to chill with friends and/or coffee dates. I highly...
