Primera Taza is a proper coffee house, the kind of place that feels a bit rebellious. Featured on Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown, the family-owned cafe is small and the cups of Mexican coffee are large. When it's available, don't miss the lonche, a Mexican sandwich made with imported bread from Jalisco that the Los Angeles Times calls "truly great" and "the rarest sandwich in L.A."

Primera Taza hosts events such as live music, open mic nights, and the annual "Art, Coffee and Conversation" gathering.

A sweet little community oriented coffee house in the area. Low prices, good value, nice atmosphere.
