Sip your way through Beverly Hills

1. Aharon Coffee & Roasting Co.

Aharon Coffee & Roasting Co. prides itself on its coffee beans from countries such as Colombia, Panama, Costa Rica, Ethiopia, El Salvador and Kenya. It creates blends that would excite any coffee lover’s taste buds. To create its incredibly smooth flavor, Aharon’s Cold Brew coffee, available on tap, is extracted in room temperature water for sixteen hours. The shop takes cold brew a step further with its “Nitro Cold Brew,” a nitrogen-infused version of the drink. The slow bar offers additional brewing methods, such as pour over, French press and Turkish coffee. 

2. Philz Coffee

When you visit a Philz store, you’ll see that it does things differently. First, its baristas grind your beans so they're super fresh, after you pick your blend. Next, each drink is brewed one cup at a time to your taste, and poured over slow. Because of the meticulous process of making each drink, this San Francisco-based coffee maker is considered a major player in third wave coffee, often times serving exotic drinks that can't be found elsewhere. 

3. Euro Caffé

Strolling through The Courtyard at 427 North Cañon Drive and breathing in the scents from Euro Caffé will leave you feeling as if you’ve been transported to Rome, Italy. The Italian coffee shop offers a variety of Italian coffee drinks, along with freshly baked cannoli, paninis and pastries imported from Italy. Euro Caffé is also a popular spot for Serie A soccer fans to gather in the courtyard and cheer on their favorite clubs as they watch the matches on the large TV screen.

4. Blue Bottle Coffee

The Bay Area’s popular Blue Bottle Coffee has a Beverly Hills location on South Beverly Drive, just across the street from Chaumont Bakery & Café. Order up a shot of Hayes Valley which is the brand’s darkest espresso, in either a macchiato or caffe latte. If you’re out for something a little less strong, we’d recommend the New Orleans iced coffee. This sweet and creamy drink is cold-brewed with roasted chicory, and then cut with whole milk and organic cane sugar after it’s poured. Enjoy with an order of avocado toast or a made-to-order Liège waffle, Blue Bottle’s caramelized, contemporary take on the Belgian waffle.

5. Comoncy

Comoncy’s Beverly Hills location was one of the first third-wave coffee shops, joining a movement where coffee is considered more than just a commodity, but a craft beverage that brings out the bean’s true flavor. Skilled baristas serve espresso and coffee beverages using locally roasted coffee and custom-built third-wave gadgets to further enhance the flavor in your drink. In addition to its espresso offerings, cold process iced coffee, drip coffee and even hot chocolate, Comoncy serves up breakfast dishes, salads and sandwiches, along with a homemade vegetable barley soup and a soup of the day. 

6. Urth Caffé

A popular hangout for the characters on HBO’s original series, Entourage, Urth Caffe’s espresso menu offers more than a dozen different drinks with your choice of dark or light roasts. Additionally, this Beverly Hills restaurant serves a special coffee of the day, organic house blends and varietals, French press coffee, blended ice drinks, tea lattes, smoothies and even Boba drinks made with organic tea. If you have time to enjoy a meal, grab a table on the front patio to see and be seen on the trendy South Beverly Drive in Beverly Hills.

7. Brighton Coffee Shop

The oldest coffee shop in Beverly Hills sits on the southwest corner of Brighton Way and North Camden Drive. Opened since 1930, the quaint diner serves breakfast all day, offering classics such as their “2X2X2 Breakfast Special” with two eggs, two pancakes, two slices of bacon and two pieces of sausage and a half sandwich and a cup of soup lunch special. The coffee menu includes macchiato, frappuccino, mocha and chai latte, with the option to select from soy, almond, whole or skim milk. Whether seated outside or at one of the classic booths inside the restaurant, enjoy your favorite morning drink and meal at Brighton Coffee Shop.

8. The Fountain Coffee Room

Take a step back into the 1940s when you visit The Fountain Coffee Room, tucked inside the iconic Beverly Hills Hotel, which has been catering to Hollywood stars for more than a half-a-century. Order a smooth house coffee or indulge in an espresso or cappuccino as you sit atop one of the restaurant’s 19 restored bar stools at the curved soda fountain counter. The menu, which was inspired by the soda fountains of the 1940s, features hot and cold sandwiches, salads, omelets, root beer floats and more, making this restaurant a popular take-out option for Beverly Hills locals.

9. Alfred Coffee

Since opening on Melrose Place in 2013 and later in Austin and Japan, Alfred has made waves with sleek decors, exceptional customer service and innovative coffee and tea drinks. Now in Beverly Hills just a block from Rodeo Drive, Alfred offers the best cold and hot drinks along with culinary delights like made-in-house avocado toast, lox bagels and salads prepared by culinary artists. The most popular drink is the world-famous iced vanilla latte. The espresso blend is also popular, comprised of coffees from Indonesia, Latin America and Africa. 

10. La Colombe Coffee Roasters

La Colombe Coffee Roasters is one of the country’s largest independent coffee roasters, operating since 1994 and serving signature blends and exceptional single-origin coffees in some of the coolest neighborhoods in the country, from Chicago and Boston to New York and Washington, D.C. Now in Beverly Hills, it strives to provide an elevated refreshment experience serving hand-crafted classic drinks and light snack fare.

11. Nespresso

Take a seat in the Nespresso café and boutique and order hot and iced espresso-based drinks, from beloved classics to the latest Nespresso creations like the Espresso Banana Shake with Kahlua coffee syrup or the Mini Macchiato Cone, served in a dark chocolate-lined waffle cone. A menu of light bites and desserts is also available to accompany your drink.

Of course, a Nespresso boutique wouldn’t be complete without giving guests the option to purchase machines and pods to recreate the experience at home. The back wall of the store is colorfully lined with every Nespresso flavor available and the easy-to-use machines are displayed throughout the boutique, where the knowledgeable staff can help shoppers select the perfect machine for their home.
