This is a great little hidden gem in Tujunga!! Met the owner when we came for breakfast and it was great to have a conversation and learn about all they do. They use the best ingredients and they care for the quality of food that they serve. I appreciated this especially since many cafes don't care and try to just do whatever with no thought behind it. They have several seating available for large parties and a ton of food choices for the long hours they are open. Can't wait to go back and try some other dishes during lunch or for a late night snack since they are open late. read more

I tossed my laundry into the washer and stepped out for a quick kombucha run--one of those ordinary errands that accidentally turns into a small delight:) As I passed by this spot, it's unassuming splendor just caught my eye. It had to be new; when I lived in the area five years ago, it simply didn't exist. I'm a firm believer in supporting local businesses, so I made a spontaneous U-turn and decided to see what this place was all about. Serendipity, it turns out, has excellent taste! First impressions were strong. A generous parking lot, a welcoming outdoor patio, and the kind of calm confidence that suggests a place run with intention. Inside, I was greeted by a young cashier who was warm, sweet, and effortlessly professional. The pastry and cake display immediately pulled me in, but curiosity led me to ask about breakfast. She walked me through an impressively wide menu, and my eyes locked onto the ajarski--beautifully described as a boat-shaped dough crowned with cheese and two large eggs. I asked her to add protein, and I chose to go with bacon. A double espresso sealed the deal. The interior is spacious, spotless, and thoughtfully designed, with large windows framing Foothill Boulevard and the rolling Tujunga hills beyond. I took a seat facing the window, soaking in the view as the city moved quietly outside. The espresso arrived first--rich, full-bodied, and perfectly textured, not the watered-down imitation too often passed off as a "double." Then came the ajarski. Let me be clear: I've traveled extensively and eaten ajarski in many corners of the world. What landed on my table here was on another level. Every detail was dialed in. The cheese melted luxuriously, the bacon was savory perfection, and the dough--golden, airy, and baked at just the right temperature--delivered depth of flavor with every bite. This wasn't just good; it was intentional cooking, executed with care and pride. I lingered, enjoying the ambiance, the food, and the attentive service. The tip was more than deserved. This place is professionally run, thoughtfully curated, and genuinely uplifting. It put a smile on my face and gave me the kind of energy that carries you through the rest of the day. Highly recommended. A true neighborhood gem--and one I'll be returning to often. read more

I've only ordered the bacon boat because I like it that much. I asked about the ingredients and they use good flour for their breads. Service is of the direct style, which you'll either appreciate or not... I happen to be just fine with it. Prices are fair. read more

I have visited multiple times the main location and also the charming drive-through. The staff is impeccably welcoming, and the pastries OMgoodness!!!! I traveled to childhood memories and then some. Their cake slices have been incredibly not so sweet and flavorful. The drinks are also not extremely sweet and I keep having to go get more of everything. The charming little soda-style plastic cans full of tiny morsels are adorable and filled with tasty treats. I think more people should try this gem in Tujunga. I also highly recommend their drive-through. The nicest staff I've ever come across!!! read more

So my husband had told me to check out Arnie's cafe because they have really good coffee and pastries. So to Arnie's I went. Located on Footjill Blvd it's a cozy little spot which has a drive thru also. I got myself an avocado toes and latte and the employees told me I have to try their banana bread, which all never say no to. ...the employee dancing after I said I loved it Then she said I should check out their actually bakery down the street. So the very next morning i drove there. Such an awesome spot. This time I got an iced matcha, the banana bread again (duh) and their lavash breakfast sandwich. Again, everything was a hit!! Also they have a little play structure in their patio for kids and they have pony rides on Saturdays from 9 to 3 . We will defining be back here with our marshmallows. Shoutout to Lisa for baking the best iced matcha and very lovely service :) read more

called Arnie's Bakery just two days before my daughter's birthday to order a slime-themed chocolate cake. I sent them a photo of exactly what she wanted, and they absolutely nailed it! The design was spot on--exactly what my daughter had imagined--and the cake itself was massive and genuinely delicious. We had 25 kids and 7 adults at the party, and everyone got a slice... and we still have half the cake left over! Not only did it look amazing, but it also tasted great! Highly recommend Arnie's Bakery for any custom cake needs. They came through for us last minute and exceeded all expectations read more

What a nice surprise on a bright Monday afternoon. I was craving a new bakery and Arnie's did not disappoint. It's a bakery and cafe so they had an extensive menu. I ordered a chai latte and 5 stars for having goat milk. Also had some pastries which were so so good but I can't remember their names if you paid me. One was a twist on carrot cake and the other had like a birds nest and nuts. They also have a parking lot which makes it super convenient. read more

Arnie's has always been a favorite of mine. Their coffees and drinks in general are great. Their iced chai latte, caramel macchiato, and white mocha are some of my favorites as well as their avocado toast. It has a hint of lime which I love! The people here are always very friendly and ready to help. They ensure you are satisfied with your food and go above and beyond to fix any issues you may have. They will even remake your drink. This location is very modern and open. Everything looks very well set up inside and very clean. read more

I recently visited this lovely café and bakery after listening to the owner on LAist's Friday food segment & took the drive out from Hollywood to Tujunga and had such a wonderful experience. The food was absolutely delicious -- truly authentic Armenian flavors that felt homemade and full of heart. I had the the Breakfast Boat - kind of a boat shaped dough with cheese & eggs - so so good! The owner, Arnie, is fantastic: warm, personable, and clearly passionate about what he creates. The staff were equally caring and genuinely interested in honest feedback, which made the visit feel even more welcoming. The pastries, in particular, the rose cake was excellent and a perfect way to finish the meal. Highly recommend the drive from LA by if you're looking for great food and genuinely warm hospitality. read more

It was so delicious. Best baklava I've ever had. Light crunchy and the filling had an amazing texture. Makes you want to eat more and more. I loved it. Unlike other baklavas that are too rich and too sweet right after one bite. Well done. Arnie's Bakery is very clean, friendly and the service was excellent. Definitely will come back to try other things from their menu read more

First of all, the two ladies behind the counter are so nice and accommodating. I was looking for fruit tart but unfortunately they didn't have any at the moment. I still wanted to try some of their stuff and the younger lady recommended honey cake, strawberry cake I think it was and their best seller pistachio cake. As soon as I got home, I tried all three of them and I tell ya, they're all sooo good! The texture too! They're definitely made with love and passion.

I paid a visit to Arnie's bakery after my amazing experience at Arnie's drive-through coffee window. At the bakery, I got their famous breakfast boat, which was seriously the best one I've ever had in my life. The combination of warm, fresh-baked bread filled with gooey mozzarella and topped with two farm-fresh eggs created an absolute delight for my senses. I also got a box of gata/nazook, and the sweet young lady filled my box with an assortment of extra cookies as a special added bonus. These little "extras" made my experience special and made me want to come back. This place is more than just a coffee shop. As one reviewer mentioned, it's a community hub -- they host karaoke, comedy nights, live music events, and more. The open dining space also makes for a great place to work or study. I recommend you check it out! read more

Having driven by this place nearly every time I'm on Foothill I have always wanted to stop by but never had the chance. I was finally able to check it out while working and it far exceeded my expectations. The owner, Arnie, is a great guy. You can tell he cares about his business and customers as well. The cheese rolls put Porto's to shame, definitely a must try. This is a wonderful place to relax and sip on something hot while enjoying a well made pastry. Give this place a try if you haven't already, you won't be disappointed. read more

Arnie, the owner is always welcoming to customers. He makes sure to say Hi or have a chat with people visiting the cafe. The staff are superb. They are excellent at taking orders, suggesting other food and drinks for alternatives/options, and simply providing excellent customer service. Above all, the food is great! I enjoyed their pastries as well as their wrap. The veggie boat is excellent and the Armenian expresso coffee is strong and earthy which I like! This place is now our go-to. I look forward to trying their dinner next time. read more
