Kyle Glanville and Charles Babinski's ever-expanding coffee empire is a welcome sight in any corner of the city. With outposts in Larchmont, Los Feliz, Culver City, Downtown, Hollywood, Highland Park and West Hollywood, there's usually one nearby when you're hoping to grab macadamia lattes, hops-infused sparkling black teas, cortados or just plain drip, not to mention breakfast burritos, breakfast sandwiches, muffins, home goods, pantry items and an array of tumblers, scales, kettles and everything else you need to craft GGET's bags of beans at home. Not ones to skimp on style, Glanville and Babinski also offer some of the best restaurant merch in town.
In this town, you can throw a stone in any direction and you'll find actors shuttling between auditions, writers working on their next script and freelancers loitering in coffee shops and outdoor cafes. As laptops crowd cafes and coffee houses, you might ask, "do these people work?" (Afterall, this is an "it's always summer in Los Angeles" town. Having those best beaches nearby is pretty tempting.) The short answer? Yes, we do work. Pack your laptop, bring your headphones and get ready to work at LA's best coffee shop home offices.
