Fix Coffee in Echo Park


I love this bathroom, and  have been meaning to post on it for a while. I finally got in there for some pics on Friday. First of all, it's always clean. I used to frequent Chango, another Echo Park coffee shop, but I've moved on to Fix because it's just far superior. Coffee is better, the people are nicer, and the outdoor seating is just quaint and fab. Good people watching, too. 

They have a few things in this bathroom that really set it apart. Look above, and notice what's on the paper towel dispensor? Yeah, that's lotion. That's really nice for those of us that wash our hands several times a day, because we get dried out. And for those of you who don't wash your hands several times a day- you're disgusting. Lotion. Sweet perk. 

Now, you might be thinking to yourself that this bathroom doesn't look like much, but it's actually glorious. These photographs don't really do it justice. But check out this floor, it's so lovely: 


It does kinda' make your eyes feel funny, so don't stare at it to long, but it's one of those bumpy cool floors that makes you want to take your shoes off and walk on it barefoot. Of course, please don't, this is a bathroom after all. 

Now, before you get too dizzy, distract yourself with this: 



That's right, Cottonelle wipes. Oh, my, god. You really raised the bar, Fix. You know what's up. Sometimes first thing in the morning, after you've checked your email and had that first cup of strong coffee- you just need to take a giant shit. And sure, sometimes it's a little messy. What's the best way to clean yourself up and get that freah-and-so-clean-clean feeling again? Cottonelle wipes. Wow, I've never seen these in a public bathroom of any kind before, so I am seriously impressed (and clean). 

Lastly, the toilet comes out of the wall, and I dig it. Yeah, it's bizzare, but design wise it's really fab.  This bathroom gets a straight up A+ from me. Thank you, Fix. Thank you very much.
