Lumen Coffee
5025 N Figueroa St. Café Suite, Highland Park, CA
Crema's Take
“Tucked into Highland Park, Lumen Coffee is a charming hole-in-the-wall spot that takes their matcha seriously—think properly textured, never watery—and surprises with creative seasonal offerings like blackcurrant matcha that you won't find anywhere else. The tiny outdoor seating area strikes that perfect balance of cozy and low-key, making it ideal for a leisurely sit with a friend or solo with a really excellent iced mocha, backed by staff who clearly care about getting the details right.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu.

Had a matcha here and it was genuinely great. You can tell they know what they’re doing. Service was friendly and attentive, and the overall vibe was relaxed and welcoming. Loved the outdoor seating too, perfect for hanging out and enjoying a drink. Would definitely come back…
The blackcurrant matcha on their fall menu stood out to me bc no one else does that, & it’s a flavor I love; it was delicious. Plus the lil outdoor seating area is cozy and cute.
Super cute hole in the wall spot! I had a matcha which was great- not watery or milky like most spots. Got a vegan muffin and a cookie and they were both great too :)

My go-to drink is an iced mocha with oat milk and Lumen’s version is soooo rich & yummy. Probably the combination of their rich espresso and chocolate! Will certainly be coming back! Also, the vibes are exquisite.
