One of the most thoughtfully curated art bookshops in the US, Arcana has occupied its Culver City space since 1984. The stock spans photography, architecture, film, design, and fine art – heavy on rare and out-of-print titles you won’t find elsewhere.

They've got excellent filter coffee and espresso from Roseline and Coffee Manufactory, as well as tea from Song Tea.
