Federal Coffee

I found another delicious coffee spot to add to my favorites! While driving around West LA, we spotted Federal Coffee. We busted a U-turn so quickly. There was parking right in front just waiting for us. The coffee shop is a walk-up, and you order through the window. The menu is short and sweet, which worked for us. I love the colors and the cuteness vibes this shop gives. I absolutely love the pink!! Hubby and I ordered an iced vanilla latte. They offer outdoor seating. It was a beautiful day, so we decided to take a seat. The sun felt amazing! Our order was ready in less than 5 minutes. Our first sip was mind-blowing delicious! It was sooooo yummy! We finished our drinks and got ready to look for a cupcake spot. As we were getting ready to head out, hubby decided to order another coffee. He got a cold brew coffee on tap. Sneaky sneaky, lol.

We went to this cute little coffee shop. We couldn’t really walk-in to the coffee shop so we got in line and ordered some coffee and two bakery items. I thought it was interesting that they offered an option to make the coffee pink so I ended up getting it. It was only food coloring rather than flavor but nonetheless still interesting to try out. When I asked about the coffee, the employee at the register was very mechanical and explained what a Gibraltar and Cappuccino were in terms of fluid ounces. I ended up ordering a Pink Cappuccino. We also bought two croissants - spinach and artichoke croissant and a sweeter croissant. They were both incredibly flaky and quite tasty. It was buttery yet didn’t leave an after taste. It was a little chilly, but we sat on some chairs outside and enjoyed the food + coffee. There were several people and dogs that came by throughout the morning so I could tell this place was busy. I recommend checking this place out!

Great coffee shop. I ordered an americano and got an iced latte as well with the sugarfree vanilla syrup. They provide friendly service and reasonable prices. Their pastries come from a local place called Chaumont who have a few locations and although I didn’t get any this time I have been to the bakeries themselves and everything they have is exceptional so anything you get will be good. They also have a few regular food items such as breakfast burritos and some seasonal drinks. Good spot

I recently stopped by chance at this charming corner-street café at the intersection of Pico and Federal. It’s a window-like coffee parlor and it perfectly captures the LA vibe with its unique setup: order on Pico, pick up on Federal, and relax on the outdoor terrace to savor your coffee. I had a hot latte that was great, paired with a delicious cinnamon twist that I highly recommend—it was the perfect duo. They also offer a selection of pastries, both sweet and savory. It's definitely a great spot for a coffee break should you be in the area on a sunny day (most days in LA…)!

Never have I felt so insulted having to wait for my drink while seeing the staff chat amongst eachother (mind you the place wasn't busy AT ALL so I don't see how they would've left a coffee drink just sitting on the counter). I only felt the need to address this considering how overpriced the menu is so it stings a lot. Anyways, I regret tipping at all if this was the service given to me.
