Laveta is a sleek, minimalist coffee shop in Echo Park, known for its delicious ube lattes, fresh brunch bites, and breezy outdoor seating that feels just right for a laid-back LA afternoon.
"If you've ever wondered how many ways Uniqlo pleated trousers can be worn, check out the crowd at Laveta. Most everyone at this concrete cafe in Hi-Fi dresses like a style influencer: chunky sneakers, baggy hoodies, and cool sunglasses with no UV protection (check out Laveta's Instagram, which showcases their favorite fits with #OOTD). Beyond fashion, Laveta offers creamy ube lattes that aren't too sweet, sweeping views of Downtown, and a fried chicken sandwich with apple slaw that warrants turning a coffee stop into a proper sit-down lunch." - sylvio martins
"Is there anywhere more chic than Laveta’s outdoor space in Echo Park? We’re putting our money on no. Outfitted with sleek, minimalist wooden furniture, austere slabs of concrete, and signature drinks like the namesake Laveta (made with two shots of espresso, organic maple syrup, and oat milk) and the berry mojito fizz, a refreshing mix of raspberries, blackberries, Korean omija berry extract, sparkling water, and mint, there’s no better place in town to put on oversized sunglasses and type away at your computer while narrating your life, Carrie Bradshaw-style." - kat hong
"Newer to the East Side coffee world, Laveta was opened by the same team behind Andante in the summer of 2019. Despite being on the other side of the 101 from the coffee shop epicenter that is Echo Park, Laveta has quickly become aesthetically famous through social media. The small standalone structure houses a seamless polished concrete interior that flows throughout, complemented by simple wood furnishings while the window offers dramatic golden hour patches of light into the room. All of this is to say, it’s a beautiful spot to drink something with caffeine. Order this: The signature Laveta (double espresso, maple syrup, oat milk)." - with warm welcome, leslie yeh
