Intelligentsia Coffee & Tea

It’s the definition of “hipster coffee shop .” The blue-and-white tile and plywood is the backdrop for Silverlake’s coolest crowd. Snag one of the patio’s shaded seats to enjoy your macchiato . Read more

As a Chicago resident, I definitely appreciate Intelligentsia in LA. Great coffee , obviously. This location also has a nice outdoor seating area and wifi .

Fantastic iced mocha . Rich Strauss milk with nutty chocolate , balanced with great espresso . The in house made-from-scratch ganache chocolate they're using stays dissolved beautifully once iced.

One of the best editions of Intelligentsia out there, possibly with one of the shortest lines too. If only they could get rid of the tons of atmosphere killing amounts of swag they put on display.

The tile floor of this is the most eye catching part. But the coffee is why you should go. A lively , and usually busy place. Try one of the seasonal espressos .

Uber-trendy. The coffee is prepared with fanatisme, but the success of the place makes it hard for the time pressured baristas to reach perfection. Try to find the moment when it's less crowded . Enjoy

Cozy atmosphere . The baristas here are so nice and highly recommend the lavender hot chocolate . The staff was good. I can't wait to come back again next time.

One of the best coffee places in LA. Cold brew on a summer day is the best. Limited seating . Make sure to check out the cheese store next door for free samples .

Drink fancy coffees and espresso and chai lattes from hipster baristas in the hipster heartland of LA: silver lake .

Love the well-lit interiors and clean patterns here! The caffeine and carbs are wonderful too ...

Come in the late afternoon. Grab something from The Cheese Store of Silverlake, a cup of Joe here, grab a seat & enjoy the scenery & WiFi . ☕????????????????????????

The Super Over-Hyped coffee shop that all the hipsters talk about! And I must say, they know their coffee . Well done hipsters . well done.

Excellent coffee selection, nice atmosphere.

I must say this coffee shops simply rocks, with vast range of delicious coffees to choose out from. But intake of too much of coffee or tea does have their bad repercussion on our oral health.

***FREE STREET PARKING ON SANBORN ST. WATCH THE SIGNS! PARKING ENFORCEMENT IS REALLY ON METER PARKING SPACES weekends*** !!ANGELENO & ICE MOCHA ! !!

Angeleno is an iced latte with an extra shot of espresso , some simple syrup all shaken on ice... Wonderful!

Their americano has a unique flavor. Get it iced if you don't want to go down the traditional iced coffee route.

Bring the gourmet-iest of gourmet coffees home with you by Stopping into Intelligentsia and picking up some organic Fair-Trade beans. Bring your KCRW Fringe Benefits Card to sweeten the deal!

Definitely a scene here, but it's a damn fine cup of coffee , perfect for sipping while window shopping in all of the fancy boutiques .

Best coffee in Los Angeles in the cool Silver Lake Junction area. Sit outside with an iced coffee and pastry while you watch attractive hipsters scurry by. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

Oat milk capp tasty here!

Dress up to grab a coffee . Ideal wardrobe: Military boots , skinny dark denim jeans , white-tee, plaid shirt and/or MacBook Pro with iPhone 5 or newer. J/k

The best iced latte I've ever had! Along with the best friendly service

Great place to see celebrities getting lattes . I'm a fan of the rather frightening Iced Angeleno (four pulled espresso shots shaken with agave nectar , milk , and ice).

Well obviously the coffee is amazing. But I like mine at home too. BeanGenius mails me intelligentsia personalized to my tastes. Options!

Watch out for the dive bombing pigeons! I actually had one fly right into my head. Can kind of ruin a cool coffee experience... Love the cold brew coffee . Best ever.

Nice iced coffee outside. With your legs in the sun and your head in the shade!

Very sunny, flowers near the stairs, nice vibe around. Quality coffee for sure.

Reminds me of the one back home in Chicago. It is great to have one nearby. Great tea and coffee .

Say hello to Sadie, the four legged beauty who is a personal greeter and will alway make you smile, unless you don't have a soul.

Must stop in the area for coffee . Always great to sit outside and people watch .

Open surprisingly late - great spot for an after dinner cafe au lait - plus, no crazy long line late afternoon-evenings

Coffee is good, although maybe a bit overhyped... Don't think it's worth the price, but service is good and the atmosphere is still pretty cute . The pastries look pretty amazing though.

Legend has it... Ethiopian shepherds first noticed the effects of caffeine when they saw their goats appearing to become frisky and "dance " after eating coffee berries .

Stayed in the area for a long weekend and kept finding myself back here for espresso . Design is ????

People watching is good. Though despite the free WiFi , it’s hard to be productive because of how loud the area is.

Be ready for coffee greatness. I've been to almost every killer coffee spot . Stumptown and more. This place is legit! Best coffee served in the US and possibly the world. BUT, it will cost you :) $$$$

Prosciutto Danish was to die for. Great almond latte here. ????????????????

Tres Santos: Fresh-roasted coffee from Columbia. Have only been there once, though.

Perfect spot for that morning caffeine boost, loved walking this beautiful neighborhood and relaxing here.

These baristas are well-trained in the art of pulling a quality espresso shot and steaming milk . They also know a lot about coffee , just ask them.

Espresso and anything your little hearts desires to nibble on....mmm so tasty

Savor every sip, right down to the red star at the bottom of the cup. This is coffee as God intended it (literally -- best espresso I've found since Rome).

Great coffee , great baked goods

Coffee is always satisfying and the mosaic floors are the best on this side of town .

Cool place with a European air. The espressos are served with a glass of soda water...something done in Italy.

Favourite coffee place in LA! For sure. Plus they have Oataly.

Cutest coffee shop ever, great cafe latte and croissant...yummy yummy!

Take a break from espresso with their amazing V.60 brewed coffees . It's how real black coffee should taste.

Everything has been said about this amazing place! The line is worth.
