One of the best cafes and bakeries in LA. Delicious coffee, delectable baked goods, and super friendly staff. You have to try the mini banana bread.. might honestly be the best ones ive ever had, will definitely be back just for that.

My favorite cafe and breakfast spot for a healthy hearty meal and great community. Franco, Tom and Mariana are so nice and friendly. Everyone I’ve met working here is amazing. Wonderful service with a smile to match. Breakfast plate is amazing and affordable, eggs bacon avo arugula hummus sourdough and a light chimichurri sauce on the side - $19 I believe. They cook with olive oil which I love. WiFi too, great place to get some work done.
Highly recommend this place. I will be back regularly.

Thank you Lo/Cal Cafe!!🤙

Rude girls acting indignant that someone is coming in 20 min before close. Already have everything packed up and just looking at their phones.

I like this place but.....
Doe anyone know how to make a cappuccino anymore ?
I was taught it's 1/3 espresso, 1/3 steamed milk and 1/3 foam.
Local like most shops makes it ridiculously strong on the espresso and even after asking for only a single shot it still came out way too bitter and strong from too much espresso.
Milk of course was not properly layered so that also effects the overall flavor.
It's disappointing to dream of a truly rich Cappuccino and recieve an extra strong latte. They were however nice enough to give me a side of steamed milk so I could dump half the original drink and balance out the flavor.
$6.00 12oz cappuccino w/whole milk.paper cup not asked or offered cup for here.

The coffee was good - yet nothing special. I liked that they had three different sizes for hot and cold. Plus the service was very good and friendly.

The food was pretty average. I had the Cherry Bomb, a sourdough muffin with cream and cherry filling. It felt too dense and a bit dry - especially when comparing to a similar product from Lodge Bread Company. The Avocado toast was very basic and not worth the $15 (!)

Atmosphere is nice tho.

This is a review only for 2 drinks : dirty chai and iced matcha latte.

I got an iced matcha latte but it was basically green milk; There was no matcha flavor at all.

My husband got a dirty chai. Later I asked how it was and he had forgotten he got a chai bc it wasn’t spicy at all and was too sweet.

Inside was cute w cute items for sell. Pastries looked yummy but we didnt have any.

I ordered the grilled cheese, they found a way to ruin something as simple as that.. it maybe contained 1 full slice of cheese but I doubt it honestly..

I love this place. Their lavender oat milk honey latte is what dreams are made of. The staff are friendly, they have a wide array of options, and the food is always delicious. Their PCH is amazing and always a favorite.
