By day, Cognoscenti Coffee serves thoughtful single-origin brews. By night, the same digs transform into Good Clean Fun, a natural‑wine bar with a chill vibe. Paired wines from Slovakia and Chile are poured beside espresso machines in the same room—it’s delightfully quirky. I popped in one Sunday night and loved spotting both laptop-tapping guests and wine-sipping locals. A smooth transition between caffeine and fermentation, right in Little Tokyo

Cappuccino was amazingg, mocha was great. The cappuccino was crafted to perfection. Super smooth and the art was beautiful. White gentleman in a green hoodie absolutely nailed it. Service and atmosphere was great as well.

My vanilla latte was perfect and the ham and cheese croissant was yummy. Perfect combination for what I was needing this morning.
Got a cold brew to go with a-little oat milk added. Unfortunately it was a bit sour, probably was just slightly under extracted beans.
Overall cute coffee shop, good service and good lattes!
