    Yesssss. Love this!
    Robin M.

    I wish I could give this spot 5 stars because it's a vegan coffee shop that's dog friendly and anti-ICE and seems awesome AF. It's also easy to find street parking. But sadly, there were a number of things I was disappointed with. The first thing was that when I got there, I had to pee so badly. But they don't have a bathroom! They say it's because it's a to-go spot, but they have a back patio filled with seating, so that's clearly not the case. Anywhere in LA needs to have a bathroom just based on the fact that someone likely sat in the car for an hour to arrive there. The second thing was my tofu scramble. I got the veggie one and it was as if they thought oil was a veggie (yes fine, it's made from plants, but come on). It was the greasiest thing I've eaten in a long time and I'm a junk food vegan! More veggies and less oil please! The third thing was that I have verizon, and there's like zero cell phone service there. I saw in my phone that they had wifi, but they wouldn't share their password with me. I could have posted on social about them to get them free marketing, but I guess they don't want that? The coffee was good but the lids make you spill coffee on yourself (ok yes, I have been known to be clumsy, but I swear this wasn't that haha).

    So cute! It's a small location. Their patio in the back is where we ate and forgot to capture it. We dreamed that it could one day be a place to eat at on the patio at night as there were lights but they were off and I think the patio closed in the afternoon. Perfect hangover food too! The biscuits were yummy. We ordered several items to satiate the ferocious appetites and just shared the dishes so we could try a variety. They have water and cups for extra refreshment. We understand running a spot can be overwhelming but let's all hope one day it has longer hours and patio service so you don't have to clean after people's messes before sitting down. Friendly front counter service, no parking lot and no bathrooms. Glad we discovered a spot in Mt Washington, wish there was more hidden gems in this part of town but we'll take what we can get!

    While in the area, I stumbled upon this wonderful not-so-secret Vegan gem in a sleepy residential Glassell Park neighborhood. Little Barn Coffee House is a wonderfully simple and fresh plant-based grab and go spot that offers up some outstanding food and drink items to locals. This small, cozy spot offers window ordering service, where you will meet a wonderfully nice woman who is passionate about her business. I decided to go with one of the house staples: the Biscuit Sandwich, along with a Hashbrown Patty and an Iced Horchata Latte. The restaurant is strictly set up for taking your items to go, however, there are a few spots in the back patio area where you can sit to enjoy your meal and drink with some shaded trees and umbrellas. I was able to score a nice shaded wooden bench area in back with the patio being half full on a Tuesday morning just an hour into opening. When my name was called, I was given my drink first. The Iced Horchata Latte was quite lovely and refreshing. Great flavor, not too sweet, with a perfect dusting of cinnamon on top. Amazing for an already hot morning in Los Angeles. A few minutes later, my name was called again for my sandwich. The young man at the side window was very friendly and welcoming. I grabbed my biscuit sandwich and proceeded to unwrap. Right away, I noticed the flakiness of the biscuit. Hot, delicate to the touch, this was an outstanding baked item. The marinated tofu was also quite delicious, fooling the eyes and the taste buds for those egg lovers. The vegan maple fennel "sausage" was absolutely fantastic. Juicy, tasty and you would have to convince most carnivores that it didn't have parents. The vegan cheddar cheese and house sauce were equally delicious which made the whole sando a solid breakfast delight. Little Barn Coffee House is one of those great hidden gems in Los Angeles. No fuss, no bling (also no WiFi or Bathrooms and limited residential street parking), but provides a complete healthy, quality experience that all locals will know and love. The passion is in the food and drinks and you feel the rustic wholesomeness that is quintessentially everything amazing about Los Angeles.

    Always love a queer-friendly, fully vegan place! This place opened during the pandemic, so it started as a take-out only place. They have a patio in the back that is nice and chill. We got the Monte Cristo (French toast with vegan bacon and cheese), and a breakfast egg 'n sausage biscuit sando. The biscuit sando was delicious (slightly on the salty side), the Monte Cristo was good...but probably wouldn't order again. The cheese melted into the bread and was basically non-existent. Prices are fairly high (~$30 for two sandwiches...this is where the world is), and there is no bathroom on the premises (with no real option for one, which I understand is a larger question about the accessibility of public restrooms), so that's disappointing. I hear that bathrooms are coming though.

    I saw this spot reviewed on TikTok and my love of breakfast biscuits compelled me to drive across LA to try. It's a small, unassuming spot in a residential neighborhood, and had a line when I got there. The service was friendly and the price point was solid for all-vegan offerings. I tried the bacon biscuit with cheese and just egg (it normally comes with tofu, but I subbed vegan egg instead). I was nervous about the bacon because most places never get it crispy enough. Little Barn wins on that front. Though the biscuit was a bit salty for me, in general, it was delicious. The chai tea latte was also good. There's a little patio in the back that'd be great to bring friends, which is what most other patrons did. I'll be gladly driving across town for my breakfast biscuit fix whenever I have time!

    The cheese steak sandwich was unbearably good, so good and juicy that it was nearly impossible to eat it in style, which turned out to be a bit of an issue while driving until the traffic came to a complete standstill due to an unrelated accident. Delicious!

    Alison B.

    Cute little spot! Friendly and quick service. The food came out hot and I really enjoyed the tamale. My boyfriend raved about his sausage biscuit. Coffee was good & the americano was strong. The outdoor seating was peaceful in the early weekday morning. Will be back!

    This is a 100% vegan spot. I ordered the Sausage Biscuit, Veggie Scramble, Matcha Latte, Lemon Poppy Seed muffin, and a Chocolate Croissant for my to go order. I liked the sausage biscuit, veggie scramble, and my matcha Latte. I was surprised to see kale in my veggie scramble but it was perfect because it added to the protein. I am picky with my matcha and that was good matcha. The house sauce was delicious with the sausage biscuit. The pastries were the least favorite. The muffin was too dry and the dry chocolate croissant only had a small slither of chocolate. Good chocolate though. Food here was pretty pricey for the portions but happy that it is 100% vegan so I don't have to worry about modifying the menu and cross contamination. I would be back and order other things on the menu. Limited Outdoor seating. No restrooms. Staff was nice.

    "sausage" biscuit: 5/5 delicious!! the biscuit itself is so warm fresh and fluffy. i have come a few times and always end up getting it again bc its a consistently good and filling breakfast sandwich hash-brown burrito: the burrito was okay, i had it once and would not recommend it compared to other items, it was pretty bland and dry without the salsa verde, which was good! their iced coffees/ lattes are regular but great with breakfast, the oat horchata cold brew is one of the best. customer service is always great, the staff is always sweet and the patio area is always clean and nicely decorated. cute little spot for vegan breaky and lunch!

    Breakfast biscuit sandwich
    Amber D.

    Wow! I was craving a biscuit and this place popped up on my Yelp search and I decided to try it since everything on the menu is vegan. Seating is outdoor, so you just order at the window and pickup when they call your name. Decided on the breakfast biscuit sandwich and an Americano with pistachio flavoring (shout out to the guy taking orders. I was pretty indecisive about the flavor I wanted in my coffee but he was very kind and patient). Needless to say I was blown away by how flavorful both my sandwich and coffee was!! There is no WiFi so this is not the type of place to sit and do work... but it is an awesome place to come with a friend or two and eat a delicious meal. I will definitely be back!

    Hash brown burrito
    Michelle B.

    My friend and I came here on a Sunday morning for breakfast before going shopping. She's vegan so this vegan place was perfect for her. We came around 9 am and we were the first here to be able to have our pick of patio seating. This place is to-go but they have limited patio space for you to eat at. Banana Matcha Latte (hot) 4/5, this is a nice ratio of matcha : milk and the banana acts as a nice sweetener for the matcha. Matcha latte (iced) 4.5/5, my friend got this and while she did note she enjoyed it, she felt the matcha : milk ratio was slightly off Hash brown burrito 5/5, this was what I got. It is lightly spicy (as I liked) and reminded me of kimchi fried rice?? This was very filling and I enjoyed. Both burritos came very hot and freshly made. Breakfast burrito 4/5, my friend got this and her main issue was that this was incredibly tofu heavy but it wasn't scrambled well instead it was more like chunks of tofu

    Monte cristo
    Danny C.

    Cute hole-in-the-wall, all-vegan place with great food. They self-identify as a "togo-only facility" since customers are expected to order food and pick-up at a window. But the existence of a secret outdoor patio in the back with a handful of tables makes it closer to a quick service restaurant! Service at the window was great and it gives the vibes of a community restaurant. They have plenty of choices including cafe drinks (coffee, chai, lattes, etc.), an all-day breakfast menu, and more. The patio is cute and the ambiance was cozy. It had a peaceful, isolated-from-the-city feel and we even saw someone with their laptop open getting some work done. It's shaded by trees and was very clean. We got the hash-brown burrito, monte cristo, and the pumpkin spice latte. Hash-brown burrito - it's a medium-sized burrito that was delicious and served piping hot. It didn't come with any sides or sauces, but they had packets of cholula hot sauce upon request. Monte cristo - it seemed like a grilled-cheese sandwich, except the bread was replaced with french toast. It's served with syrup on the side. I thought it was nothing short of fantastic, but my girlfriend pointed out that the sweetness of the bread and the savoriness of the cheese didn't match too well. Pumpkin spice latte - we got it iced. Pretty good. Sweet. Served in a 16oz cup (same as a grande size at Starbucks). Note: they have no bathrooms

    I love it here! The staff is sweet. I have met the owners who are also lovely! I love the sitting area in the back; atmosphere is chill. My favorite items here are all the pastries made in-house! I've had most of the menu, both food and matcha (along with variations/combinations) and I always come back to the biscuit breakfast sandwiches. My favorite matchas are the banana and raspberry flavored ones! Not too earthy, not too sweet. What a wonderful vegan/plant-based mainstay.

    Do you have a restroom for customer use?

    Hi Anna we are a to-go only facility and not equipped with a public restroom. Working on getting permits to get a restroom and be able to serve for here. Hence why we package all our food in Togo paper-ware. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    I’m sorry we’ve been having some major repairs done in the kitchen through out the month forcing us to close early. We will resume regular hours May might even extend hours sorry for the inconvenience.

    Is their gf items on the menu?

    Hi Marcy, we have a variety of gf options. Our tamales are naturally gf, our power bowl is gf, scrambles are gf, and we have a different variety of gf bread to sub on any sandwich some days we have gf biscuits mostly on weekends a they do sell out…

While I am not at all vegan, it can be a fantastic change of pace when trying a cuisine that is not at all my regular routine. Happily, Variable has tons of choices, and we loved what we got. I was drawn towards the 'N Seoul Bowl' (Korean spicy plant based pork, house marinated Kimchi, organic edamame, steamed organic spinach, carrot, steamed broccoli, onion , organic shiitake, topped with green onion and sesame seeds and side organic quinoa). So good, a bit spicy, and so many flavors on the plate it was impossible to not only love it, but I could not finish it, either. That goes from all their dishes. They are big, and in our experience, it came out piping hot soon after ordering it. My companion tried the 'Indian Tikka Masala' (homemade Indian curry, broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, yellow squash, potatoes, cabbage, chickpea, micro green, Served with blend wild Jasmin rice and Indian Flat Bread). Tastes so fresh, hearty, with just enough of a kick to it. I look forward to trying some of their other dishes, too. The burger that the table near us ordered looked fantastic. I gotta think that everything here is pretty dang great.

I'm obsessed with their lion's mane steak and will order it almost every time I visit (unless I'm trying one of the new seasonal main courses) - it's surprisingly close to the flavor and texture of actual steak! The calamari is one of my favorites and my very anti-vegan stepkids actually said it's better than real calamari, which is huge.

Our server was nice at first but throughout our time there she became increasingly condescending and rude. We started with the calamari, squash blossoms, and watermelon salad. The calamari was good. The watermelon salad was delicious but could have used double the feta and pistachios. The squash blossoms were so small and dry. The "cheese" inside was hard and tasted sour. We used to get them all the time and the recipe is definitely different. One in our group ordered a beer when we sat down at didn't come until midway through the appetizers. When we asked our server for it, she just said it was coming. For our entrees we got the meatball pizza, spicy rigatoni with chicken Parmesan, eggplant short rib, and bolognese. The meatball pizza was fine but not good enough to want to finish. The two pastas were the best but not that much flavor. The eggplant short rib was inedible. They basically just peel an eggplant and slap a giant slab on a bowl of mashed potatoes. It was so dense and chewy and slimy. We couldn't swallow it. We also ordered the truffle potatoes at the start of our meal and they didn't come out until we were finished with our entrees. When I informed our server, she simply gave me attitude and said to wait because they take longer to cook. At that point we didn't bother bringing up the eggplant dish because we knew we'd be dismissed again. We were very disappointed in the quality of food and the service. We'll be dropping this place from our roster of good LA spots.

    O.m.g. so delicious. We went at 5 ish so there was oke ty od indoor seating which we thought would…read morebe a cooler choice but we got hot in no time. They only have a hose A/C in the corner that didn't do much to cool the place down. The food though was amazing! As 2 vegetarians and 1 vegan, we had never seen such an extensive plant based option with not only vegan cheeses but meat substitutes with protein! No wonder they have been ranked #1 for multiple years. The starter bread came in a brown bag and was soft and delicious, especially with the house pesto. You could really taste the basil but it didnt feel too oily. We got the calamari because none of us have ever seen a vegan one on a menu! It was breaded and fried and had a squishy center made of pea protein that I guess simulates the real one? It came with a marinara dipping sauce. I could obly have a few because they were fried and I felt like they were a bit too salty Next the pastas came out - the Pistachio pesto and the fusili with sausage. Both were delicious. The pesto sauce was the same one we had with the bread but the pasta had Pistachio chunks in it as well and generous amounts of pesto. The sausage was chewy and the sauce must've had either the same seasoning or chunks of it blended in because you could taste the same flavor in that as well! We had hopes of trying dessert but these 3 dishes were a perfect size for our party and we had been starving ourselves for most of the day for this (probably due to all the protein included in a usually carb only meal). The service was prompt, dishes came out quickly, and water was always filled. I am looking forward to returning to try all the other dishes!

I got the vegan lasagna as my main which was good, but came out lukewarm. dessert is an absolute must-- the vegan tart was the best part of the meal. fun drinks menu. I had the summer sangria- yum! thankfully they have a parking lot next door!

    have been here a few times and it's some of the best variety of vegan food offered in the area. the…read moreplace itself has a nice bar and inside seating area. staff is always friendly and willing to answer any questions and give great recommendations. parking is a bit tricky, but if you luck out on street parking right in the front it's great. one particular time i've been is this past valentine's day and while they were very behind on getting people sat at the time of reservation placed, they were very honest at the wait times and willing to make accommodations for many guests waiting. we were able to get drinks at the bar while we waited, chatted with other waiting guests, and were regularly updated about our table. the food was quick to come out and our server was great. the party next to us actually fought and caused a bit of scene but the staff handled it so well i had to tell them what a great job they did at handling the chaos of the day. safe to say our dinner AND a show for valentine's at PLANTA will have us returning! HIGHLY recommend the thousand layer potato's and spicy lumaconi

We had the crispy rice, nachos with beef added on top, and the vodka pizza which is one of my favorite vegan pizzas to date. We also got the noodles (non spicy ones) and the brownie with ice cream OMG, amazing. Our waiter, cannot remember his name unfortunately, was fantastic. Very attentive and gave great suggestions. Overall, 10/10, will definitely be back!!

    This place is AMAZING. Especially for a vegetarian who hasn't had catsu in forever. I accidentally…read morecame across it while stuck in traffic and we've been craving it and coming back a couple times within a month. We live over an hour away. The chicken stays crispy for a long time and reheats nicely as leftovers. Everything we've ordered is really good and crave-worthy. We got the lucky catsu, curry catsu, crispy shrimp, spam masubi, catsu masubi, orange chicken, crispy chicken. Top two favorites are lucky and curry catsu. Small things I'd personally wish to change is that the onion is too strong in the macaroni salad. Wish it wasn't in there period. And the rice is a little on the dryer side and it sticks to the container- so when you scrape up the last bits of rice, you could be eating the paper from the container. I like that they use compostable containers though!! But yeah the rice is on the harder side especially as leftovers. But whatever, their main items are bomb and makes me not care about anything else. Service is quick! Note: it is not a sit down restaurant. You order (ahead) and park on the street and call them to let them know you're outside. They'll bring the food out. Reception isn't great outside fyi. I've been here 3 times and never last long enough to get a photo before digging in. There are two other vegan restaurants right next to it, same concept - order and pick up. Great for different options if one is craving Mexican from Cena or hot dogs from All franks.

    To be very honest, I love this place so much. I am currently sad because they are not open. I've…read morebeen looking every day to see when they will open back up from the macaroni to the spam. Anything that you get here is good.

The cafe itself is beautiful and cozy, and the whole team was incredibly kind. Our server honestly made the experience even better. He was so friendly and genuinely excited about the menu, took the time to explain everything, and gave us great recommendations based on what we were in the mood for. You could tell he really cared about making people have a good experience. The food and coffee were amazing, super flavorful and satisfying without feeling too heavy. It ended up being one of our favorite stops during our trip. Huge thank you to everyone there for making our day so special.

Everything was spotless, calm, and full of genuinely lovely people. The service was so warm I briefly considered asking if I could move in. I ordered a latte, the Caesar tempeh wrap, and a bowl -- and somehow every single bite tasted like it had been blessed by woodland fairies with culinary degrees. Flavor? Absolutely out of this world. But the BEST part? The names of the dishes. "I Am Well," "I Am Grateful," "I Am Light"... and when your server brings your food they lovingly announce: "You are well." Honestly, being affirmed by a stranger while handed organic vegan food healed at least 37% of my problems. I came for lunch and accidentally left spiritually moisturized. If you want delicious fully vegan organic food, positive vibes, and the experience of being gently complimented by your salad, this place is IT.

The cashier was super patient and helpful which I appreciate a ton! The location is on the corner of a lil strip of businesses so a few parking spots which makes a difference. Inside was a small setup but again super cute Here's what we got: 1. The Smokey (10/10) - it's banging! I really wanted to try it specifically because the onion-jalapeño jam got me stuck... and it did not disappoint! 2. The brisket breakfast burrito (9/10) - I asked them to cut both in half since I was gonna share with someone in the streets haha I love burritos, I love vegan breakfast burritos so nom nom nom! 3. Speculoos brownie (10/10) - it's super El Niño so the brownie was hot and ready by the time I landed so it was gooey and delish af I will definitely be back when I can push out to HP to grab refrigerated meets and cheezes! Please come support a vegan business!!

    Best of the best…read more Maciel's is a Highland Park gem located on of course York Blvd - this Plant-Based Butcher Shop has been voted one of the best places to eat in Los Angeles and rightfully so. Whether you're vegan (like me), vegetarian or flex (like a lot of the world) this is a spot you should definitely try at least once or at least thrice. Impressive sides, soups, salads, sandwiches (both hot and cold), "meats" and "cheeses"... Not to mention desserts and breakfast items. Love the French Toast!! But that Reuben is a 10/10 and my guilty pleasure. And the meats are plant-based, loaded with flavor and true culinary flare. Maciel herself as well as this eatery combines passions for cuisine, health, nutrition and care all in one in this often thriving vegan-friendly area in Greater Los Angeles. Catch them also at big gathering such as the annual Vegan Street Fair in North Hollywood, Coachella Music and Arts Festival, and Open daily from 8:30 am to 8:30 pm, closed on Mondays. Some parking in their lot, but street recommend if the lot is full on the corner of Aldama St/York Blvd. Gender-neutral restrooms. And open to all.
