Love, love, love the Beehive!!
This place gets a really rough reputation of being a hipster coffeehouse/bar when it's just a great, locally owned and independent alternative to Starbucks across the street.
Prices are reasonable, even for beer on East Carson! I love their specialty teas and coffees and somehow their chai seems like it's the best in the city.
They serve assorted pastries and sandwiches and ice cream too!
Their bathrooms are the best in the city. :)
