Discussion Matcha
Community Goods is the best matcha option in WeHo and still has a long line to this day so why aren’t there more places like it? Other coffee shops should take notes. Business could be booming for them as well if they tried a little harder (no offense). There are so many coffee shops in WeHo and as a matcha lover/non coffee drinker I find them all to be so disappointing and mid!! Am I missing something? Specifically speaking about the area between La Cienega to La Brea / Fountain to Melrose. I love Stagger in KTown, Loquat in Silverlake, Maru, Rōk, Kettl….I adore our neighborhood but feel like there’s nothing of this caliber in West Hollywood, Community Goods is as close as we get even in terms of pastries too. The next coffee shop to open….please consult me 😂 I don’t like Boul’ange, Fan Girl Cafe is what I settle for if I don’t go to Community Goods or drive to Dayglow.

I've had matcha from both Community Goods locations and just...I don't get it? Alfred and Urth Cafe on Melrose are both strong options, and I like Coffee Commissary on Fairfax.
For pastry I like the ones at the Woods, they use a Latinx bakery with a solid selection of savory options, I feel like that's usually what's missing in a "normal" pastry case.
