Fairgrounds Coffee and Tea

"A brilliant idea for the coffee lover: serve multisourced coffees, kombuchas, and teas at one place. That's what Fairgrounds Coffee and Tea, the coffee shop in the recently redone Mayfair Hotel, does. Come here and you can get a Blue Bottle latte and your friend can get a Stumptown pour-over. The same goes for its bagged teas and coffee beans. We suggest trying something from the elixir menu, like the Flower Power Milk Tea: bright-blue Thai butterfly pea tea blended with matcha, jasmine syrup, and coconut milk. Slightly sweet, it's perfect paired with the vegan breakfast sandwich and enjoyed in one of the comfy chairs next to all the leafy plants. "

Cool Chicago-Based Coffee Bar Opens Inside LA’s Mayfair Hotel This Week | Eater LA

"In the corner of the building, Fairgrounds Coffee & Tea has opened as a roaster-agnostic shop that lets customers choose beans from multiple roasters (expect offerings from Verve, Stumptown, Dark Matter, Ritual, and more) and buy beans for at-home use. There are other takeaway goods like juices and pastries, plus teas, matcha, and on-tap drinks such as kombucha. Morning patrons can expect plush banquette seating and stools (16 spots total), plenty of sunlight, lots of greenery, and a marble counter up front for grab-and-go service; a limited daytime menu will offer items like sandwiches and salads. Hotel guests or diners can also access Eve American Bistro across the lobby or head to the back for a stiff drink at the library bar. Baristas will be pouring as early as 6 a.m., and Fairgrounds officially opens on Wednesday, August 15." - Farley Elliott
