Worth a detour
Couplet Coffee
Los Angeles, United States
Why it’s on the route
Couplet Coffee is a queer woman-owned café on Temple Street at the edge of Echo Park, with a wildly colourful interior, a mural of a roller-skating mug and orange and yellow tables out front. The menu leans playful, with banana-themed drinks such as a choco-banana espresso with banana cream and a bananas 'n' cream matcha, alongside the usual espresso drinks.
