Review by Trudie Price

The Upside Brew is a gem tucked away on Ludlow Ave! ☕ I stopped in for a raspberry white mocha, and it was delicious - perfectly balanced and oh-so-refreshing. The ambiance is cozy and trendy, making it ideal for a study session or casual hangout.

The baristas are a highlight; their energy is contagious! I also got to indulge in a delightful avocado toast - great for a quick bite during my laptop time. Plus, the art on the walls is mesmerizing! Definitely a must-visit for coffee lovers and UC students alike... I’ll be back soon! 🌈
