Great food that you won't find anywhere else. Service is great..very friendly and helpful. It is hidden in a cute neighborhood area. Been a few times, each time I try something new. So far, everything has been so tasty!

NO CASH ACCEPTED HERE -- first thing to know if you're coming here A pretty, little cafe that serves beautiful sandwiches that are as great to eat as they are to look at. My friend and I both ordered our own sandwiches and they each came with a nice side salad. Both dishes came with VERY fresh ingredients and I've been craving to return since I first tried it Smoked salmon bahn mi - 10/10. It was so tasty even though it wasn't anything like what a traditional bahn mi is like. The lettuce and mint used in the sandwich were crunchy and super fresh and the pickled jalapeños used added a nice dimension to the sandwich Side salad - 8/10. I would have enjoyed it more but it was much too drenched with oil/lemon (not sure what they use here. It was good regardless but the dressing used was overwhelming)

Coffee is great they could use some newer tables & chairs, that are not so old & flimsy out front.Sit at your own risk.I was afraid of falling onto the pavement while eating my breakfast.I am sure they still sell these sets at Ikea..Staff is great especially the older gentleman who has been around for at least 10 yrs..food is good, especially love the quiche sans meat.Its very custard like.They use quality ingredients.Parking can be a challenge.Quaint Echo Park location.

I'm so lucky to live near this gem. Where every single thing they make is the best version of itself and the staff is an absolute pleasure. There is not one bad thing. EVERY SINGLE MENU ITEM IS A 10!!

The soft scrambled eggs were perfectly executed. A relaxed neighborhood place with really good quality food.

Love this spot. Great location in Echo Park with incredible breakfast/lunch food and coffee. Highly recommend!

Coffee is good, but the pastries are the star of the show here. I've tried the zucchini bread, the coffee cake, the breakfast hand pie, and the mushroom and cheese hand pie, and all were super delicious. The flaky, buttery, and well-seasoned crust on the hand pies are to die for. It's a small spot that's very popular, so there will be likely be a line at peak hours, but they move through it pretty quickly. You can also order ahead for pickup (including curbside!) Staff is very friendly. There's also a decent amount of outdoor seating, or, if you're willing to brave the hill, it's about a quarter mile from Elysian Park. Definitely a must stop when I'm in the area.

I just ate the most heavenly slice of banana bread ever. Moist, full of flavor, a nice sprinkling of nuts. Turns out it was vegan!

So good. Pastries are especially delicious since they're a bakery first. Anything with eggs they make well too. Coffee is good. Their chocolate bars are so good, their jam is so good. Staff is cool and helpful and it's a great location.

The almond cake and coffee are pretty darn good. It's a small cute coffee shop. A bit of a hole in the wall place. It's your morning coffee shop. I personally like it because it's not overwhelmingly crowded.
