50 Best Cafes near Valley Village

“Some places are good once, but Cosmodrenala Shawarma is the kind of place you immediately want to visit again. The flavors were fresh, the meat was perfectly cooked, and every ingredient tasted high quality. Fast service, generous portions, and a meal that actually exceeded my expectations. Definitely one of the better shawarma spots I’ve tried, and I’ll happily be back.“

“If you are looking for an authentic, kosher, Jewish bakery, it does not get any better than Schwartz Bakery. I always thought that Portos bakery was number 1, well that spot is now taken by Schwartz Bakery. Their blintzes with cheese are amazing. I was shocked to know that the cheese is actually dairy free (parve), but it has a full taste of actual cheese, not an easy task if you ever bought dairy-free products. The assortment is great as well, you can find anything from non sweet potato knishes to savory little chocolate rolls and poppy seed roulettes. The little challas are very delicious too. I honestly can say that out of dozens of items that I had tried there, I have not found one that was not tasty.“

“Great people! great coffee! Great food! An awesome environment ❤️“

“Such Wonderful atmosphere, food and coffee! 💖🎉🥳 They also have a super sweet display of gourmet treats!!! 🤩“

“The place is very trendy and the food is vey delicious. There were 9 of us and we were able to taste many of the menu items. The food was consistently tasty and good. The lavashak and lavashak smoothie were 10 out of 10. Also the server was very friendly. We will definitely come back.“

“This place just feels like a warm hug. The interior is filled with lush plants, mismatched vintage furniture, and a very welcoming atmosphere. I tried their signature lavender honey latte and it wasn't overly sweet, just right. The baristas are super friendly and remember the regulars. It's the perfect spot to curl up with a good book on a rainy afternoon“

“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.“

“get the Hash! and some pie“

“Busy on the weekends and mornings so recommend coming here on a weekday. We came here during Wednesday for dinner and did not have to wait. They were out of the chicken rice but had everything else. You order at the front and then get a seat. They don’t do reservations so best to come with a small group of 2-3. Highlights on the menu for us we’re the French Toast and Pork Belly Rice. The French Toast was sweet with a crispy outside and fluffy inside. Overall, great place with good prices and would come back!“

“Great atmosphere, Hector was great!“

“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.“

“Milly was very respectful and attended to our needs. She was very quick to attend to my big party of 12 people. 10/10 service.“

“If you add protein powder to a bowl, you will be raw dogging it. Thought it would be mixed in… if you let it melt a bit you can mix it in yourself. I was, however, impressed w the amount of fruit they give you. The front worker was sweet. Shaded outdoor seating available. It’s a cute vibe.“

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

“My fiancée and I are fortunate enough to live a short walk away from Yagul and can’t get enough of it! Authentic and delicious Oaxacan food/drink (you literally cannot go wrong with anything on the menu) and the most wonderful and warm staff you’ll find in all of West LA. One of the true gems in our community.“

“Hidden gem! Tried out the peanut butter and banana shake, which was pretty descent. The chicken pesto sandwich was DELICIOUSNESS. It hit the spot.
Tried the fruit mousse dessert, raspberry and strawberry and they were gooood. But the real star of the show was Bella, the owners dog! She sat next us while we enjoyed our lunch :) the staff was super friendly and welcoming!“

“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.“

“Excelente servicio. Comida exquisita y saludable. 💯%Recomendable. Gracias.“

“Love how I can go for a walk before/after the coffee since it’s attached to the walkway. There are plenty of sitting area outdoor.

My personal downsides are that (1) their indoor tables/chairs are so short so I cannot properly get any work done. (2) they dont have a charging station. They have one plug by the entrance but that doesnt work. So inconvenient.“

“I've been to Toastique multiple times at this point, and I will definitely be returning! Everyone there is so welcoming and kind! Even the look and feel of the restaurant are so inviting that I want to keep going back. I've gotten a smoothie (that I've forgotten the name of, but it was good!) and the Cure Juice which were both very tasty and I'd highly recommend checking it out!“

“Delicious way to start our day before heading up to Griffith Observatory! The quiche and the biscuit were highlights. It's just a walk up place with outdoor picnic tables, but the food and coffee are great, and the outdoor seating is quite pleasant“

“Super riko selos recomiendo“

“Awesome healthy food! A ton of vegan options. And the price is great too. You'll meet alot of grassroots artists and cultural creatives here,as well as spiritual people. All tribes are welcome here!“

“Hot day. We had a relax time with amazing tea!!!“

“Went with some friends who were vegetarian and we opted for the hummus wrap with tofu and it was SO good. I’ll always go for local food versus chains and this hit the spot. The owner was also really cool and chill (loved the condiment sides he suggested). Highly recommend this place! The next time I’m in LA I’m definitely gonna come back here.“

“The breakfast / brunch menu has a good concept and good options. The merguez sandwich was good, but too oily. The fries were done well but too salty.

I wish they cooked the food with less oil and salt. Maybe I'll request that if I stop by to eat there again.“

“Maru has really Nice green tea latte. I usually leaning toward coffee and Maru’ coffee is super nice. But, their iced green tea latte is something else.“

“Everything so delicious, and owners so nice“

“I am excited to share the heavenly news that Doubting Thomas has been fully endorsed by the Kingdom of God and Jesus Christ, King of Wings! Congrats Chef Naomi!“

“This isn't a coffee shop. It's a communal space. The coffee is basically free if you think of your donation as more of a rental fee to be in this lovely communal space and have access to all that it offers. This place is ideal for making plans with business partners, writing scripts with friends, or just getting together for some time away from screens and computers. This place is tailored toward bringing diverse people together into one place to sharing ideas and stories with each other. As for the coffee and baristas both are fantastic. Cappuccino rocked me off my behind all day cuz I'm used to watered down crappuccinos from Starbucks. I love this place. This is where I bring friends that love good coffee and a peaceful conversation.“

“A community staple. A beautiful, charming spot with incredible food and caring, warm service.

Whether you’re here for a sit down meal to catch up with friends, or need a quick to go pastry or dessert, Aroma will never disappoint.

This can be a very popular spot, so prepare for a small line and wait for an open table.

Plenty of vegetarian and vegan options as well. Many of the pastries and desserts are vegan and/or gluten free.

I can’t recommend this place enough.“

“Love the coffee, the snacks, and an amazing staff. One of the baristas came after me and returned my debit card the other day after I absent mindedly walked off without it while I was there. Obviously right thing to do and all, but that and their friendliness and answering questions about menu items beforehand left a positive impression.“

“Tastes great, not expensive, good service“

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

“I got lunch delivered from them for the first time today and it was absolutely amazing. I wanted to try the brisket, but they were out so I ended up with the steak sandwich and they were really apologetic and nice about it and even tossed in some extra freebies in my bag. I can’t speak to the atmosphere since I was not there, but the food was so good. I will definitely be visiting in person soon.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆
Cha Cha Matcha is such a fun spot — really bright, aesthetic, and just a whole vibe.

The matcha is the highlight, really good quality and super smooth. I tried one of their drinks and it was refreshing without being too sweet.

The WeHo location has such a nice sitting area, and the decor feels really elevated — lots of plants, beautiful old cane chairs, and just a really well-designed space.

Perfect for a casual catch-up or just sitting and enjoying the space.

Definitely a cute spot if you’re into matcha and want something light and easy“

“Very expensive for what you're getting. At least the food was mostly good and the service was good.

Ordered two 16oz lattes with an extra espresso shot in each, one chocolate concha, and two breakfast bagels. After tip the total was $50 making it $25 per person.

The cinnamon brown sugar and cajeta lattes were very good. The chocolate concha, especially when dipped in a hot latte, was delicious. The breakfast bagel was okay, but a little too salty for my taste.

Probably won't be back again just because of the price. It's a shame because the coffee and concha were good.“

“Tried the crepe rolls at Roll Cafe today and they were absolutely delicious! You can tell a lot of care goes into the food, and everything tasted fresh and flavorful. Maria and Isabel were both so friendly and welcoming — they made the whole experience even better. Excited to have this new spot around and I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Good breakfast. Hamburgers are great.“

“The best vegan baked goods around town! I had the cornbread, almond cookie (gluten free), chocolate chip (gluten free), and Armenian pizza with a mixed tea. So good!“

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

“I came at 5:30pm on a Sunday and it wasn't very crowded which allowed me to easily get a seat. The atmosphere is the typical cafe vibe with k-r&b and lofi in the background and natural lighting, and the decor theme is cozy pastel blue + chrome. I tried this place because of the ATEEZ drink collab event and ordered the Mushroom Cream Baguette Sandwich, Spinach and Feta Pocket, and the Sweet Mamacita drink. They were all delicious, especially the Spinach and Feta Pocket which was very crispy! I wish I could buy more of these if the prices weren't as steep, but I understand that these may be typical L.A. prices. They were also filling, considering the decently small portion sizes, as I managed to get through the Spinach and Feta Pocket and my drink before I was full. I would recommend all of these items and dining in besides doing takeout like I did. It's overall a nice study spot with great snacks, and I'd come all the way out here just to try more items or just get the same ones I ordered!“

“Cute, fun, and immediately won me over because they use Dune Coffee beans, aka one of my favorite coffee spots from Santa Barbara!

The matcha was incredible and my friend LOVED her strawberry matcha because the milk tasted infused with freeze-dried strawberries which really leveled up the strawberry flavor! Super unique and really tasty. Will definitely be back!“

“Jurassic Magic is easily one of the coolest finds in LA. the name makes it sound like a theme park gift shop, but it's actually this incredibly chilled-out, artsy sanctuary. I spent the afternoon on their back patio--it's like a secret garden filled with tropical plants and mid-century vibes. I tried the 'magic latte', and the spice blend is genuinely unique; it's warm and comforting without being too sweet. you can tell they really care about the craft, from the live-whisked matcha to the fact that they roast their own beans. it's the perfect 'third place' to just exist for a while, whether you're catching up on work or just hiding from the city noise. Definitely a must-visit if you appreciate good design and creative coffee.“

“Nice folk. Refills on coffee! What?!!“

“Stumbled on this place by myself! The owners were so sweet and attentive. Feels very cozy and clean. A great place to post up for work.
The coffee was delicious and the food was right up there with it. I got an off menu salmon tartine that she recommended and then treated myself to the pancakes. Delicious and will come back!!“

“We visited LA for 5 days, and mostly all the lattes were disappointing. On the last day we found Rabbit’s coffee and he crushed it. Great guy, genuinely happy that you are there to get coffee. And he sends you off with excellent coffee. I even learned a few things about how to make my lattes at home even better. Skip everything else, go to rabbits coffee!“

“Highlight Coffee Shop in Glendale, CA is a true gem for coffee lovers. From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that sets the perfect tone for a cozy coffee experience.“

“Love it me gusta mucho la amabilidad y tienen los chilaquiles mas deliciosos que e probado 👌😋😋“

“I enjoy a specialty coffee shops.. and this one hits the spot just like their coffee and pastries...
Was on business travels and enjoyed walking 2 blocks over to this place for great espresso.. great service with gentle kindness (we need more of this in this current world)... and a great banana loaf perfectly moist and size and well balanced sweetness. I came three times in three days. Thank you Lena.

Nice seating outside for people watching and ample room for morning or afternoon breaks...inside seating aswell.. cozy and comfortable.

Thank you. I shall be back next time im here on business again. Soon.“
