Showtime Network: A casual place to take out or to stay in. Everything is made fresh daily from their fine desserts to their wonderful breads, bean salads and grilled veggies. The apple tart is amazing. - Jill
Cady Groves: The best espresso (I’m obsessed) and homemade desserts. Skip the other dishes and come for the low-key, "work-on-your-laptop" coffee shop experience. Read more.
g oconnor: A fantastic selection of coffees & in-house ice cream.

Bill Sebring: salted caramel pecan rolls, oatmeal stout gingerbread loaf, chocolate chip rye cookies
Eater: Waiting in line for Karen Hatfield's salted caramel sticky pecan babka is more than worth it. The tomato-onion tart, buttercup bun and rye chocolate chip cookie are all also delicious.
Linda: You can't go wrong with the turkey sandwich with Camembert, ginger limeade, and any of the pastries. Chocolate chip rye cookie is fabulous.
987LA: Must-do's: grab some ricotta salata from Monsieur Marcel, warm apple fritter at Bob's Donuts, hot sauce from Light My Fire, and old-fashioned candy from the farm stands. Read more.
Chris G: Grab a donut early in the morning definitely delicious.
Los Angeles: Opened in 1934 and with much of its original flavor — the freshest produce, gourmet meats and cheeses, and hot donuts — plus a few extra touches (gluten-free pizza, gumbo, authentic Mexican food).
