Makisupa Coffee Bar — Restaurant in Los Angeles

Really beautifully designed cafe in the neighborhood with relaxing vibes. It’s airy and spacious, though seating is a bit more limited than your typical open cafes. Substituting standalone tables with just an adjacent seating area that has a wraparound bench, a smaller 360° bench “island”, and a few tiny round tables for your food. I’m a bit partial to waist level tables to properly eat and well anything else like write on but I can see how that’s an aesthetics choice.

They have some bodega bites like sandwiches and what not; and I opted for an everything bagel that I thought was a bit smaller than I expected but tasty with the Kitchen Mouse cashew spread.

I’m always on the look out for specialty drinks or foods and their Peanut Latte was very good! Not too overpowering and the coffee bloomed through. Even as an iced version it was still very good.

Coincidentally the cafe is part of the salon next door so you’ll see a doorway that leads to and from the salon but they operate independently which is great for anyone to just pick up a drink and go. It’s also just a nice stop along the way to the Reservoir or the L.A. River walk or, I’d imagine, waiting for your kids to get...

MAKISUPA (est 2024) is Silver Lake's brand new coffee bar located right across the street from Blair's restaurant and adjacent to Camelot School. Their indoor has an atrium-style seating area where staff serve coffee drinks. Its tranquil atmosphere definitely attenuates the stress in your work. It’s my first time here and ordered a Cold Brew. It was perfectly made to my liking.

Service was on point and staff was nice and competent. Prices were very competitive. They are open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., and weekends from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. There is a free parking behind the building and surrounding neighborhood.

Overall, I had a good experience and I recommend this coffee bar. I’ll...

Great new twist on the neighborhood coffee shop. The peanut butter latte is amazing and truly different from anything I've found locally. The flat white is also legit. Espresso is good if a bit on the mild side, but that's what I like. They have snacks, including these cool mini-burritos.

The space is modern with sensibilities of a Japanese tea house. There's a lobby set up for chilling with a giant circular couch, which I think promotes community interaction. They are dog friendly. Unfortunately, there's no outside seating yet, but maybe they'll read this and add a few tables. It's next to the Establishment Salon, so if you need an Aveda fix, you've hit the jackpot.

A very nice AM or early...
