We are part a diverse community of people and businesses.
We are the Downbeat Cafe, a family run coffee shop, where you can enjoy friendly service, a relaxing environment, classic jazz, a cappuccino, sandwiches, fresh baked scones, the best peanut butter cookies in L.A. and reliable Wifi.

The interior is a 50's vintage coffee shop with reading lamps and plugs at the tables making it a perfect place to have lunch and get some work done or to meet a potential client or collaborator.
Internet is currently available everyday at all hours.

There is live jazz every Wednesday night played by the band who named themselves after our coffee shop: The Downbeats.
