Dinosaur Coffee

"Excellent days begin with excellent coffee. Dinosaur Coffee can assist with that endeavor. Though its whole beans are worth taking home, stay awhile at this Silver Lake cafe for a generous latte or a cappuccino and pastry from Sugarbloom Bakery. In an area of town with coffee shops dotting practically every block, Dinosaur still stands out from the pack." - Mona Holmes, Rebecca Roland

"One of our favorite Silver Lake coffee shops (and home to a few questionable WiFi practices), Dinosaur Coffee has introduced limited outdoor seating from 7am-5pm daily. So far they’ve only put out a few tables, so you might have to be strategic about snagging a spot. May the odds be ever in your favor." - kat hong

"A Sunset Junction stand-by since 2014, Dinosaur Coffee serves tremendous cold brew and iced lattes. It’s a very serious coffee shop that serves near-perfect versions of drinks, but doesn’t take itself seriously at all. Refills are $1.75 on coffee or cold brew. And, as any writer/artist/actor in LA will tell you, using the McDonald’s Wi-Fi while working at Dinosaur Coffee is a true struggling artist rite of passage." - brett keating

"Dinosaur distinguishes itself from a bounty of good coffee in the neighborhood with its design-minded space. Designed by MASS Architects, everything about it is well-considered, from the Scandinavian stools to the fin-shaped sculpture above the counter, which also displays the menu. The attention to detail also spills over into the coffee, which is fully up to Silver Lake hipster standards. "
