Maru Coffee (Arts District)

coffee·$$·Arts District

A Korean-American roastery in the Arts District with meticulous pour-over technique and a beautiful, minimal space. Take a pour-over to taste the roasting philosophy, the single-origin espresso, and the soft-serve affogato — Instagram-famous but genuinely delicious; buy beans, as they're excellent roasters. Come for the morning light through the windows, with plenty of workspace for lingering, near the Arts District galleries. It is serious coffee in a serious-looking room — meticulous brewing and immaculate design, with a soft-serve affogato that earns its fame on taste rather than looks. For precise, beautiful coffee in the Arts District, it's a destination for the genuinely interested.
