Established Today
7707 Melrose Ave, Los Angeles, CA
Crema's Take
“Established Today is a beautifully designed hybrid space that pairs excellent espresso and ceremonial-grade matcha with a curated record store and vintage arcade machines, creating an atmosphere that's equally suited for serious coffee appreciation or leisurely hangouts. The baristas pull consistently high-quality shots that shine in their lattes, and the vinyl-lined interior with great sound systems makes it feel less like a coffee shop and more like a cultural gathering spot in Los Angeles. Fair warning: recent cup redesigns have made the sizes inconveniently small, though the welcoming vibe and ample seating for both meetings and solo work sessions keep people coming back.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Parking available.

Established Today is a super trendy coffee shop & record store; the space is gorgeous open and perfect for meet ups, hanging out or finding a corner to plug in and get work done. They also have a large patio space in the back that usually seems pretty empty and quiet if you're…
