Curator’s note
Kumquat came downtown in 2023 to study a higher level of hospitality, taking a room at the Jonathan Club on Figueroa. In May 2026 the club hosted the group's third April Brewers Cup LA, where Kumquat's Sam Kim placed third.
The Coffee
Kumquat's online shop carries more than a hundred freshly roasted coffees, and the downtown bar adds a limited drink to the board each month, like the Spiced Apple Cider Mule of apple cider concentrate, light ginger beer, espresso and bitters. The ceremonial matcha comes from Saison Tea, with Aobayama and Genou poured at this address hot or iced, with water or as a latte, and Saison's roasted hojicha goes into lattes too.

The Vibe
Kumquat sits in retail space on the building's first floor, with a white ceiling, a yellow back wall, sheer white curtains and a deep blue column. The bar is wrapped in long, thin brick under a stainless top, the espresso machine on it has a brass side panel, and the retail wall is stainless shelving on brick plinths stocked with matcha whisks, bowls and tea.
