History
Established in 2005.
We started in the community of El Sereno on famous Huntington Drive in 2005, our lease was short. After receiving the best of LA awards for “Best Coffee house 2007″ things began to change and we lost our lease in 2008. Our next plan was to open up in Cypress Park, Los Angeles. After many delays out of our control and a whole new management, we reopened in September 2009 in this beautiful side of town. many others have tried to mimic our model, the Original Antigua Coffee House is alive and well in Cypress Park (90065). We are dedicated to Community and Progressive causes, we are the Espresso Revolution.
