Charlie and Melanie Porter dreamt of a quaint, airy, community space which reflected the French Countryside meets European Aesthetic in their home town of California. Nine months later, with the assistance of former Disney architect Brad McDonald, their specialty coffee boutique came to life in a partially abandoned brick building, nestled in the food centric part of LA county. Here, amongst fresh clean lines of the interior space and gourmet flavour, community gather to enjoy coffee amongst good company.

“Coffee is community, and, for us, excellent coffee leads to

an even better community.”

– Charlie and Melanie Porter.
