On a narrow two lane street, called Abbot Kinney Boulevard, you find an array of shopping and restaurants. There are also a host of several coffee shops. The one that sticks out the most, or at least, has the longest line is Intelligentsia Coffee of Venice Beach. If Jones Coffee is the place where coffee connoisseurs go when they die, Intelligentsia is where coffee geeks go. On top of Intelligentsia’s standard bucket-ccino, you can also do chemex brew, if you’d prefer. And the spacious interior allows for enough room to walk around and stare at all the gadgetry and wonder WTH it all does.
