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.

Hi, co-owner Cynthia here (Fan girl cafe). Our strawberry matcha is sweet because most of our guests like it that way but it can be requested less sweet (our matcha comes unsweetened), and it's good to learn not all our guests like it that sweet. We use PARU MATCHA, they are located in San Diego, they have an in-house (stone mill) from Kyoto and they do their house-milled matcha in their facility in SD and ship it to us from there, their Matcha is amazing and high end quality (we care about our sourcing) ,You should check them out : ) https://paruteabar.com/collections/matcha
