Wynd Coffee — Restaurant in Los Angeles

Wynd Coffee (est 2025) is a brand new modern tiny corner coffee shop in Virgil Village in East Hollywood. And they do serve as an art gallery as well which is yet to be seen. Wynd is currently open on weekends only as their soft opening and serves a menu of espresso drinks, matcha, and a few signature drinks such as Tres Leches.

Indoor layout and space were limited and may feel claustrophobic especially when it's crowded. Its interior decor was minimal with few small tables. Similarly, they do have some outdoor seats with street view for customers.

I came here as a first time customer on a weekend to grab a coffee. I was perfunctorily greeted by a young blue eyed female barista with a curly brown hair. I ordered a hot Flat White coffee and Choc Croissant. My coffee was brewed perfectly; pastry was good. Atmosphere was lively and relaxing. Service can be slow given its current popularity.

Customers were respectful and affable. I had a pleasure to confabulate with a young nice woman, while we waited for our drinks. We enjoyed our drinks and conversed on a breadth of topics from the best coffee places in LA to LA politics to Ktown BBQ to Runyon Canyon etc. Ok, let me get back on this awesome review.😁

This coffee shop has plenty of potential. Coffee Prices are tad pricey albeit matched the quality of the drinks. However, I wish the regular cup size they serve at least my coffee wasn't a hobbit. Lol. :D Staff were cordial and professional. Parking in this area is extremely challenging.

Overall, I enjoyed this coffee shop. I...

Primarily my coffee is drunk at gas stations and donut shops, born out of energetic necessity and I am more or less unfamiliar with drinking it recreationally. I went into Wynd Coffee with apprehension and left feeling welcomed and satisfied, a result of the owners' dedicated vision to an accessible approach to the depths of coffee culture.

People cut from a very hip cloth filled every seat of the space, the decor utterly lacking in pretension, and I scanned the homely cups to decide my drink order: the very popular yuzu coffee. I took a gingerly sip of it, and was struck by how clean and clear the taste of yuzu was while hiding a slight bitter note of coffee. I wanted to order another, but was informed that said clean taste hides a concentration of caffeine, and reconsidered.

The owner informed me that they clarify the milk overnight with an exactitude for quality that if the standard for their taste test isn't achieved the following morning, the whole batch is discarded. The quality control is intense, I thought to myself, but a certain standard has to be enforced for such an enjoyable, unique cup as the one I had. One imagines a future where that same eye for detail is pored over the future art exhibitions to be showcased on their blank canvas of a wall, and one cannot help but be excited about the development of a nice little coffee shop still taking burgeoning, yet surprisingly...

Located right across Good Friend, this area had tons of great options! Used to be pop-ups only, it was awesome to finally have Wynd permanently. A simple small space by the corner, with few tables for 2-3 both inside and outside.

The menu was not like lengthy or overly complicated, but I would say enough selections to choose from and did feature some of their signature ones. The line might get lengthy on weekend and wouldn't be easy to find seats. So it would surely not a surprise that by noon the pastry case only left with a piece of cookie. The serving time was impressively swift though despite being pretty busy. As of now, it was surely more like order, sip, and go instead of hanging for awhile given the hectic space.

I got their Musvocado Latte with almond milk, which came with tad steep additional 75p charge. Nonetheless, the coffee was outstanding; perfect level of boldness with light touch of acidity, well balanced by the sweetness and caramel hint from the musvocado sugar. I could easily made it climb to my top list of favorite...
