Cafes near Hawthorne

“WOW. Empty on a Wednesday at 6. Very clean and tidy. And holy cow, the food! Very, very good bun bo hue. Large and delicious goi cuon. Everything was fresh, with excellent ingredients. Just amazing. I will absolutely be back, and I can’t recommend this place enough“

“Such a beautiful and amazing place! the food was superb and the service was top-notch. The only downside is that it gets crowded and even though we had a reservation we had to wait for 15 minutes. Overall, I recommend visiting at least once!“

“Open Market catered a wedding reception I was coordinating in October, and they were wonderful. Their restaurant is one of the bride's favorites, and they were great. The food is delicious, and I'm working on getting my husband over there soon. They couldn't have been more accommodating and flexible during the planning, and they were straight pros at the reception. As a planner, I love caterers that are easy to work with and easy for my couple's to work with, and it was a great experience for everyone.

Vegetarian options: Delicious!

Dietary restrictions: We didn't have a lot of them, but they did create delicious vegetarian meals for the guests who needed it.“

“One of my favorite restaurants ever. The meat was seasoned so expertly and was so tender. Mussel toast was INCREDIBLE. Their sourdough was out of this world. Staff was knowledgeable and guided us in trying many interesting wines. This place was amazing!“

“Guerrilla Cafecito is a great breakfast burrito joint & coffee house from the team behind Guerrilla Taco. The GTLA (steak & papas) breakfast burrito is the best in the city. Tortillas from Mejorado, so you already know. My only complaint… a little stingy on the salsa. But it’s 2024, so bidenomics and whatnot. I get it. But don’t let that stop you. The burritos here are out of this world.“

“De passage chez Eclair&café Excellentes pâtisseries Accueil au top, chaleureux merci pour ce bon moment 👍 De vrais professionnels !!! N hésitez pas à y faire un tour si vous êtes de passage dans le coin“

“nice relaxing atmospuhere“

“I stopped by Yagul Cafe and had my first ever Oaxacan latte, it was a very big cup, full of flavor and just the right amount of spice. Such a pleasant surprise! I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it was incredibly comforting and delicious.

Everyone at the cafe was so friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more of their menu!“

“My wife and I went to the Grove in Los Angeles last night and we had dinner at "Sogno Toscana," an it was outstanding. It was perfect in every way; great food, great drinks, outstanding and friendly staff, beautiful location, etc. I love Italian food but I can't think of one Italian restaurant that I like, until "Sogno Toscano." The food was outstanding, and there was so much more we saw go by that we can't wait to go back and try. And the drinks were outstanding. I love martini's and they served the best martini I've ever had. Giacomo was our server and took great care of us. He's from Italy and "Sogno Toscana" brought him to America when they opened their New York restaurant, and now he's in LA for this new restaurant. Although very busy, the entire staff were very fun to be around, and most of them are Italian which is also great.“

“Nice vibes, convenient location with easy parking, beautiful decor. Service was lacking, but understand there is a labor shortage right now, perhaps that's to blame here. Bodega sando was perfection! Pastries were alright...most looked better than they tasted. I'd say they were good but not great.“

“This is my favorite coffee shop in Los Angeles, bar none. The coffee is always consistent and delicious. Also the setup & branding is very cute.

The owner is personable and a joy to talk to every time I go to Rabbits Coffee. Highly recommend!“

“Kyucafe was highly recommended by friends and family, so I gave it a try! Drinks are made with care and precision, the prepared food is extremely fresh and perfectly portioned! They have the viral self-service Korean ramen stations as well!! Plentiful parking in the back! Will be coming back!!“

“i had an incredible experience at this brunch spot! the service was top-notch. very friendly, attentive, and welcoming. the food came out surprisingly fast, which was a pleasant surprise, and everything i ordered was absolutely delicious. 10s across the board on the food! i ordered the “you make me wake up happy” meal. the food had so much flavor, and the presentation was beautiful too. highly recommend for anyone looking for a yummy brunch outing. i’ll definitely be back here again!“

“Excellent Mexican ( Oaxacan) food in Mar Vista. The food was delicious and nicely presented & service was friendly and attentive. We sat outside at a picnic table, which is fun in warm weather. There are several Oaxacan businesses in the area. Diversity like this is what makes LA great.“

“Great place! Awesome service.“

“Fantastic coffee. espresso or drip, they know exactly what they are doing“

“I loved the citrus tea.. it was delicious.“

“Love the atmosphere, great place to try authentic Turkish dishes ( İskender , dolma , mercimek çorba, Lahmacun) 😋😋😋🇹🇷🧿“

“Greater with kindness as we entered. Wasn’t too crowded and the vibe was very chill. Tha design inside is very cool and beautiful. Love all the plants!

We weren’t able to try other dishes but with just based on these sammies we will be back for sure. The sammies were super fresh and delicious. We got on full veg and one with ham.

We also got a bunch of their desserts as and everyone of them were ssoooo good. Everything was a great price as well.“

“I can't say enough good things about James and Virtu Coffee in DTLA! James is not only super nice and chill, but he also genuinely cares about his customers. His coffee is consistently amazing, and he always goes the extra mile for repeat customers with great deals. It’s rare to find a spot where both the vibe and the coffee are top-notch, but Virtu Coffee nails it. Highly recommend stopping by and trying their coffee and pastries!“

“The food was excellent! The service was excellent also ! Nice place“

“My favorite breakfast place when we visit DTLA. The atmosphere is excellent and it’s next to my favorite bar.“

“Very healthy and delicious breakfast/lunch sandwiches (organic produce), salads and Coffee ☕️...and pastries...LAUSD Coffee cake the BEST 😋😋“

“From the moment I walked in, I knew I was in for something special. The ambiance was warm and elegant, with just the right mix of sophistication and comfort. Every detail was thoughtfully executed — from the lighting to the music to the attentive, professional staff.

The food? Unforgettable. Every dish was a masterpiece, both in flavor and presentation. The ingredients were clearly top-quality and prepared with incredible skill. My [insert favorite dish] was perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor, and the dessert — wow. Easily one of the best meals I’ve ever had.“

“We found this cafeteria because it was the only one open after 9pm but we were so happy to discover this hidden gem 💎🩷 we would definitely go back if we have the chance. Coffee was great, the staff were super friendly, the tiramisu was also amazing.“

“Muy buena y personal muy amable“

“The staff was really rude, it was a guy in the back just ignoring the fact I had just got there to order... and didn't even greet or anything just stared and continued to do whatever he was doing.. wait for about 20mins before leaving.. I even had eye contact with him😒😒“

“Always spotted this place when I’m in the area and decided to try it. The food took me by surprise. I had the chicken and waffle plate, the chicken and was nice and crunchy and juicy. This place is very hidden and located near the post office of HP. A true hidden place this cafe is. The service was wonderful! Always checking up on us if we were fine and if the food was good. Highly recommend!“

“The people at the Kawada Hotel recommended this wonderful diner. I walked in and fell in love with the place. I'm not a fancy person,but I may as well have been eating at a Michellin Stared restaurant. The gentleman behind the counter was friendly. I love ❤️ a good diner for breakfast. If I were to recommend something, it would be to have something other than plastic silverware. Bring the kids...“

“The staff and owners are beyond amazing!! Their love for the community and passion to serve others makes me believe in goodness again in this world. I love you guys! Thank you so much for all you do!!“

“Great new neighborhood spot! The food is healthy and delicious. Lots of variety on the menu so everyone should have a few excellent choices!“

“The drinks are so thoughtfully crafted and their potato chips are done fresh! The worker there was kind enough to offer me a reccomendation and she was incredibly understanding. I'll definitely be going again for that drink and those potato chips!“

“Superb coffee. Super classy atmosphere, helpful staff & killer drinks & food. I have a dairy intolerance rn and you can get the chapati with chickpeas instead of the eggs that have milk in, super delicious. My bf got the chapati with the eggs and cheese and he he loved it as well.“

“Stopped by Un Caffé Altamura for breakfast and had such a great experience. I walked there, so I can’t speak to the parking, but I was seated right away. The coffee was delicious, breakfast hit the spot, and I treated myself to a mimosa—worth it! It’s a super cute spot just a block from the pier. Highly recommend if you’re in the area and looking for a cozy, satisfying start to your day.“

“What a wonderful experience! From the friendly staff greeting my party of 5 upon arrival, the amazing food, the jammin’ playlist this was most definitely a top tier experience while visiting LA! We will definitely be returning to HillTop🫶🏽“

“Very friendly group there. They had information available about all the cats and you could tell they loved where they worked. The cats are obviously well cared for and the facility is well maintained. I was impressed with the entire experience and will definitely be back.“

“This might be my favorite coffee shop in the area. It has plenty of indoor seating and workspace—perfect to get some remote work or studying done 💻. My favorite drink is the horchata cold brew, half sweet with some oat milk cause the cold brew is stronggg. I love picking out some grocery store items when I’m here too. The seaweed packs and dog snacks are perfect 👌“

“little miss is my happy place. the staff is kind and attentive, drinks are delicious and food is made with love. the space itself is colorful and welcoming, and the moment you walk in you’re met with smiles and greetings from not just the staff but other cafe regulars! dogs are known by name and honored on the polaroid wall. so grateful for the little community that has grown here and highly suggest you step in as well! :)“

“Cappuccino, espresso, croissant, cornetto, are my favorites, but everything is fresh and delicious! Service and atmosphere is great! Alessandro got it right! Bravo!!“

“Had the vegan tacos and white pomegranate tea....Absolutely delicious!!!!“

“Stopped in on a Saturday morning. Not too busy, we were able to walk in and order. I got an iced matcha with no sweetener. The flavor was delicious! The matcha tasted authentic and fresh. It had such great flavor, I really enjoyed it! My significant other ordered an iced coffee drink and he really liked it! We will definitely be back. The seating there seems more like a quick sit down and go. Although, I did see some people with computers. There were also some outdoor seating, but those were all full upon my stay there. I can definitely see this as a quick drink to-go place for me. The staff was kind & most especially the cashier.“

“My daughter and I had a great lunch here. Great staff, and the menu is extensive, with much variety. She eats vegetarian, and had good choices.“

“They needed better air conditioning and accurate time for pick up food was cold.“

“A little pricey but tasty. There was a fly in the store though, feel kinda bad for whoever ends up eating the donuts it touched in the display case ? I would beware of the ready-to-serve items. Feel like they shouldn’t prop the doors open?“

“Love to start my day with fresh orange juice and bagels here. Staff is welcoming and cheerful“
