Alana's Coffee Roasters

Why it’s on the route

Alana's is a Mar Vista roastery café run by roaster Eric Stogsdill, who previously sold single-origin beans at L.A. farmers' markets, and Erin Ward, who named it after her daughter. Coffee is roasted on site in view of the sleek room, from beans bought directly from farms, and served as pour-overs, cold brew and espresso from a Slayer machine.
