Upside Down - Los Angeles, California

Upside Down is a great coffee shop for relaxing, studying, or enjoying community events. They have incredible drinks, from delicious black coffee to an ever changing menu of seasonal drinks. The staff is friendly and excellently trained. The space has incredible local art and hosts gallery openings.

It’s a nice open spacious lounge area and is a way better deal and theory than Starbucks. The employees here are super friendly and make my day as I’m getting to know them. I stop by here regularly to say hi to the employees, hangout, and possibly get a drink. They even have a table with legos and puzzles which is a good way to cope with stress. The people I’ve met here such as Kara, Abigail, Alexa, and Rachel are amazing and make my day. They even remember me and they say my name. For those who want a coffee in Westwood, come to Upside Down and don’t bother going to Starbucks.

Experience was cool. I liked the coffee.
The concept is cool.

Aside from my political reasons, the people there were nice. And if I’m ever in the area again, for that fact alone, i will consider returning.

Rose latte & a banana pecan muffin. The latte with Rose was very delicious, slightly sweet with a very mild hint of rose but it tasted great! They have some cool lids too that let out a good amount of drink. Got it iced as recommended. The banana pecan muffin was awesome, very fluffy soft with delicious flavor. It was very busy when I went but they work fast. Parking available on the streets and some parking lots. Plenty if tables and seats inside. Prices are fair & staff was pleasant.

A wonderful concept. Lovely staff and the most delicious coffee I have had in a long time!! A frothy, creamy coffee with perfectly balanced sweetness.

Visiting for some medical tests at UCLA from Palm Springs, it was my 1st visit to Upside Down. I was surprised when it was explained to me that there was no set price for the coffee I ordered. Instead, they ask for a voluntary donation. I was given a flier explaining their model and mission and found it very inspiring!

I go to UCLA once a year for a series of research tests for a study I have volunteered for. I will absolutely be returning to Upside Down to both enjoy their menu options and the atmosphere, and to support them with donations.

Well done!!!!

Came here - it's great cafe and I see what the hype is about/why ppl rated it highly! It's a community cafe that feels like a nice purposeful place inside - the first time you visit, they'll let you have a coffee/drink on the house and then after that, you pay what you feel your drink and bill should be. They offer additional seasonal activities like art classes, creative things to do in this space - would def love to support it more and the coffee is great here! I got their seasonal/monthly latte: when harry met salty. Very good coffee! Hope this place sticks around and ppl support it! Can't wait to come back for another coffee or tea drink! If you go during prime time, there's a long line.

素敵なカフェ！初めて行ったけど良かった♡
シグニチャーのCafe Hafookhを頼みました。ふわふわのフォームが乗っててマイルドで美味しい。やっぱりせっかく外で飲むなら美味しいコーヒーがいいよね…☕️

ちなみにドネーションベースということで、お値段は自分で好きな額決められます。店員さんはフレンドリーで、いくらにするか何のプレッシャーも感じなくていいよー！と。

元々コロナ前は色んなWSとかやるコミュニティだったみたいだから、早く再開してほしい！
道路の外もそこまで車通りはないので気持ちよく作業できます。

また行く♡
