Nestled in Beverly Grove, Community Goods is a buzzing neighborhood café renowned for its delicious matcha einspanner and breakfast sliders that are a must-try.
"Verdict: Undeniably good coffee. The weekend crowd is mostly here for photos. As far as we can tell, teenagers, "content creators," and those committed to curating a personal brand online come to this coffee shop to run into Kardashian-adjacent celebrities. All that aside, the coffee at Community Good is genuinely well made, including a vanilla bean latte that's not too sweet in the best way. The only issue is that you might wait over ten minutes for said latte on weekends, and the outdoor patio will be too packed to find a seat. Show up on weekdays instead, order the banana bread with tart passion fruit butter, and test-run your new Diesel jeans because people still pull looks on a Tuesday here." - sylvio martins, brant cox, nicolas zhou
"People tend to hang around Community Goods to play influencer bingo or network with other ambiguously employed people. But we get it—killing an hour at this small, cabin-like shop in Weho is pleasant, with its plentiful outdoor seating and genuinely good coffee (get the vanilla bean latte.) If you need an excuse to wear your Diesel jeans and tabi boots, premiere them here, because people dress like they're going to Apt 200 afterward." - sylvio martins
"If headed to Community Goods during busy hours, settle into the line with a book or a podcast. The queue is consistent, as are the stellar coffee drinks like the einspänner latte with sweetened cream, cocoa powder, double espresso, and a pinch of salt. Regulars in the know always order the breakfast sliders to share. It will take some time to get a drink, but this is one of the few lines in town that is actually worth it." - Mona Holmes, Rebecca Roland
"Heading to Community Goods in Beverly Grove for coffee is a whole vibe, but the breakfast sliders make any visit an event. The bacon, avocado, and eggs are smushed between toasted Hawaiian rolls with a herby dipping sauce that will prove to be messy, but worth it. Tip: head there early on weekends to avoid the queue." - Eater Staff
"Show up on the weekend (or anytime after 11am), and there’s a good chance you’ll have to wait in line for coffee at Community Goods. It’s less than ideal, and that’s before navigating the “content creators” on the patio. But Community Goods is still worth a morning pitstop because the standard espresso drinks are an upgrade over other trendy shops, and the busier drinks are delicious without being too much. The cream-topped einspanners have a slightly bitter edge from cacao powder, the espresso tonics are so refreshing they’re almost chuggable, and the housemade syrup in the vanilla bean latte is sweet without tasting like you drank your mom’s bottle of Coffee Mate creamer." - sylvio martins, garrett snyder
