Curator’s note
Joshua Oliveros and Heather Knox met working the Hollywood Bowl, he running its outlets and concessions and she the artist catering, and began building the shop in 2018 with no investors, Joshua's parents having run a coffee shop of their own in the 1970s. The second room opened on North Figueroa in September 2024, and a print studio for neighborhood architects and artists works out of 5229 Hollywood Boulevard.
The Coffee
The latte is an eight-ounce double shot with milk, and the matcha is a ceremonial grade from Uji, poured unsweetened unless asked and sized Short, Classic or Heavy. The iced tea is cold-brewed organic loose leaf, the masala chai latte is built on a 96-hour cold-brewed chai with vanilla bean and Ceylon cinnamon, and the loose-leaf blends sell by the bag, among them Sunset Punch, a hibiscus and mango fruit tea named for the owners' daughter.

The Vibe
Exposed brick frames Obet & Del's Thai Town room, where four bands of yellow, red and two blues run the white walls and curve around the corners above slatted wood benches on blue steel frames. The front is painted blue brick with the menu board beside the door, and the walls carry a raised fist and Huey Newton's line that the task is to transform society and only the people can do that.
