Just for poops and giggles
My friend lives in Summerlin. I’m going out there in a few weeks and told him we are going to the best coffee shop in America to scope it out.
I went to Yaw a couple years ago after narrowing that down as the most interesting place to check out in Vegas while having time for one coffee shop
Glad I went. I’d recommend it, guy was chill and space relaxed
I hope they have more drinks than what’s on the menu? But I can grab a cold brew worst case.
According to the Picaresca socials, they won a third place in this year’s Golden Bean. Congratulations!
Okay, Picaresca is in The Bean competition, and their IG threads gives some info. A FTCer emailed me, and told me the competition hasn’t happened yet. So, maybe the above blurred text is correct.
Speaking of I went to Picaresca
Cafe De Olla Latte with oat was very enjoyable on this rainy/cool weekend. Nice shop!
can’t wait to see this
love heavy water a ton. arguably one of the best named shops in the world.
for South Bay people, Junia Cafe in Gardena will likely be great. Dayglow legend Mike Alcoran runs the bar there.
Didn’t know there was a dayglow alum. Looks like a nice space too.
Damn he was my favorite Dayglow dude. Always so smiley.
Yeah junia looks great some of my reverent coffee friends just were posting about that place today! Please report back if you go!
Thanks for the heads up with Junia. Excited they are featuring Flower Child for pour over.
Thank you for the heads up on Junia. Looks like it’s going to be a new favorite if everyone’s favorite barista from Dayglow is running it.
I actually heard about this place.
TBH I was a little wary about a new shop opening up. It can be hard to tell which shop is serious about coffee. I think most shops have to include fun drinks to survive because that’s what expected via Tik Tok and IG. This sentiment is from various baristas I spoke with.
They hate cream tops lol and wish it would die out BUT it pays the bills so what can you do?
Unfortunately you typically have to meet customers where they are.
Junia? ![]()
Ooooohhhh! Close enough for me to check it out on the regular. TY for the tip.
Pour over currently are Flower Child from Oakland (via Sey, Brooklyn, NY I think) and Moim from Los Angeles.
Also down the street is Pit Burger a South Bay LA hood classic!!!
Really loving a new, slightly hidden spot in West Adams.
I’ll put that on my radar thank you.
So many places now lol
Moim and flower child are my next pour over purchases!
