Boxx Coffee Roasters - LA Arts District

-

Originally from Istanbul, Turkey, Boxx Coffee Roasters offers some unique and wonderful coffee offerings.  With two locations, Istanbul and the LA Arts District, be sure to make this one of your first stops when visiting Los Angeles.  

They roast locally at their Arts District location, sourcing beans from trusted local producers and long-time partners around the world resulting in delicious single origins and blends and of course, a traditional Turkish coffee as well.  Each time I have been there, the customer service from the baristas is top-notch from the moment of deciding what to order (they will gladly help you pick the best coffee suited to your likes) to bringing your order to your table or if you are simply just waiting to take it to enjoy on the go. 

They were also awarded The Best Coffee Shop In Best of Downtown Los Angeles 2022 and have a wide selection of whole beans for sale in-store and online.
