Coffee Commissary, 3121 W Olive Ave., Burbank, CA 91505
This might be the original Coffee Commissary location. I recently went to the new Kenneth Village, Glendale location, which seemed better than the Burbank location. The Burbank location has a similar menu and modern/industrial vibe though. Order at the counter and they’ll call your name when your order is ready for pickup.
It’s more than a coffeehouse. They have a full kitchen where they make their own pastries (muffins, cookies, cakes, biscuits, donuts), a breakfast menu (toast, eggs, veggie burritos, breakfast sandwiches), and a lunch menu (salads, sandwiches). For the coffee drinks, they use different roasters like Take Flight and Coava.
Matcha glazed donut: I wouldn’t get it again because it was so oily. I kept tasting oil. The exterior was crispy.
The matcha flavor was weak and just in the glaze.
Latte: The foam art and flavor of the Glendale latte was superior to the one in Burbank. The Burbank latte had a sour flavor. They have a variety of milk options, including nonfat, lowfat and full fat milk and almond milk.
They have free wi-fi and a few parking spaces in the back. While it’s a popular camping spot, it is very loud inside, so bring headphones. The wi-fi also seemed slow. The seating is uncomfortable. Open daily from 7 AM – 8 PM.
