Harun Coffee

Nestled in the beating heart of Leimert Park, Harun Coffee offers the local community a chance to explore Afro-Arabian coffee techniques and traditions. The bright yellow space itself blends a coffee shop and a gallery, allowing guests to interact with the space rather than sip and dash. Whether it’s sweet or savory, the biscuits are not to be missed, from their breakfast sandwiches to their fruit-forward spreads. After procuring one of the excellent espresso drinks or layered matcha concoctions, you can push open a bookshelf to access a moody speakeasy lined with plush seating you can sink into. Many evenings find the speakeasy alive with music, whether from DJs or local artists, where you can sip and sway with less or non-caffeinated non-alcoholic drinks long after the standard 7pm closing time. The sober-friendly spot finds its buzz in the friends you make along the way as you experience something new.
