Upside Down

Rose latte & a banana pecan muffin. The latte with Rose was very delicious, slightly sweet with a very mild hint of rose but it tasted great! They have some cool lids too that let out a good amount of drink. Got it iced as recommended. The banana pecan muffin was awesome, very fluffy soft with delicious flavor. It was very busy when I went but they work fast. Parking available on the streets and some parking lots. Plenty if tables and seats inside. Prices are fair & staff was pleasant.

Upside Down is a great coffee shop for relaxing, studying, or enjoying community events. They have incredible drinks, from delicious black coffee to an ever changing menu of seasonal drinks. The staff is friendly and excellently trained. The space has incredible local art and hosts gallery openings.

Super cute cafe! Donation based! No price set for any drink! You are immersed in the Bruins community and just simple kindness of strangers who offer a smile. Such a warm and lovely place, just like the LA sunshine outside. Go get a coffee and grab a seat by the window, I bet your friends would envy your work setup!

This place is incredible! The latte was absolutely delicious. I honestly didn't know it was a donation-based coffee shop and only paid $5, thinking it was the price for two lattes. Even so, the staff was incredibly kind and welcoming. I felt so touched by their warmth. I will definitely come back next time and make a much bigger donation. Highly recommended!"

This isn't a coffee shop. It's a communal space. The coffee is basically free if you think of your donation as more of a rental fee to be in this lovely communal space and have access to all that it offers. This place is ideal for making plans with business partners, writing scripts with friends, or just getting together for some time away from screens and computers. This place is tailored toward bringing diverse people together into one place to sharing ideas and stories with each other. As for the coffee and baristas both are fantastic. Cappuccino rocked me off my behind all day cuz I'm used to watered down crappuccinos from Starbucks. I love this place. This is where I bring friends that love good coffee and a peaceful conversation.
