Intelligentsia Coffee & Tea (Sunset Junction)

By in 05: Silver Lake + Echo Park

Finally a coffee shop opened at Silver lake’s Sunset Junction area. Intelligentsia is a chain from Chicago. Great location, cute interior and love the courtyard sitting area.

From the outside it looked like a small front-counter only operation, who knows it’s so cozy inside full of Italian retro-charm (with patio garden seatings at the back too). The giant wood oven occupied half of the interior. Individual size ($8) […]
