Part of the LA scene, this place is known for its delicious baked goods but has a full breakfast, lunch and dinner menu as well. The Spanish latte is iconic, as is the break pudding (make sure it comes with the chocolate sauce and banana). It can be crowded, but you'll definitely get a feel for LA, and there's great shopping nearby.
