The blend combines washed Colombian coffee with washed and natural Ethiopian coffees.
Curator’s note
Eric Stogsdill's company carries his daughter Alana's name, and he started it in 2009 on a small roaster in his garage, working Westside farmers markets from West LA to Redondo Beach on his own. Mar Vista opened in 2017 in a former Chinese takeout restaurant, West Hollywood followed, and Pacific Avenue near 26th is the third shop.
The Coffee
Alana's buys its coffees from farmers directly or through a supplier working with growers worldwide. At this register the espresso goes into lattes and flat whites, and the house latte board turns over with each season.

The Vibe
Since May 2025 this former vegan convenience store and cafe has run two registers, Alana's espresso and pastries on one and Chef D Brandon Walker's VB Grab & Go on the other, under exposed wood rafters hung with planters, beside a dark green wall and long wooden tables. Out back a wooden deck sits under sail shades and string lights, with trestle tables, white metal stools and a wire egg chair against a planted lattice fence.
