"It’s the late afternoon and if you’re anything like us, you need caffeine in your system. The coffee at Gardena Bowl is essentially just drip, so make your way to Sip & Sonder in Inglewood instead. Established in 2017, this do-it-all coffee shop also functions as a creative studio, event space, and bonafide community hub. Their flagship outpost on Market St. hasn’t reopened for indoor seating yet, but there are tables outside where you can enjoy a variety of espressos, hot teas, and pastries." - kat hong
"Sip & Sonder is not only Inglewood's first specialty coffee house but also an independent publisher, creative studio, and event space. Their sleek, black and earth-toned space is quiet and serene, filled with house plants, warm lighting, and long communal tables. Grab a coffee and a few pastries, then get to work. Start your new web series, fire up a spreadsheet to track your expenses, or maybe just organize your Spotify playlists. We're not here to judge. " - nikko duren, brant cox, sylvio martins
"This cafe brings quality coffee and a much-needed gathering space to Inglewood.

Check the calendar for community events, art exhibits, games, and business workshops." - Mona Holmes
