    Our order

    English muffin breakfast sandwiches in all the best ways. This location had an hour of free parking on the street, we came on a Monday morning and parking was not hard to find. But because it was a Monday, we unfortunately came when they were hustling a large catering order. However, they were able to churn out walk in orders such as ours as well, the wait was not too bad. We tried 3 savory breakfast sandwiches (bacon, sausage, salmon) and 2 sweet combos (PBJ and Nutella & Banana). We also had the dirty horchata. The sandwiches were all tasty, we polished off everything.

    This is a great breakfast spot for either a pick up n' go or simply sit down for a bit and enjoy your meal. It's one of the only places in downtown that opens up pretty early and walkable for anyone staying in downtown. I highly recommend ordering their Americano Muffin which is crispy bacon, egg, and cheese. I highly recommend adding a hash brown inside for more texture and flavor. They also give a side of thousand island sauce and Cholula for additional flavor. The sandwich is pretty big in size and will keep you full for a good while. I also enjoyed their Acai bowl which is fantastic. The Acai here doesn't melt like most Acai bowls; it's thick and has an ice cream texture which is a plus. The ingredients are held together well and don't separate loosely. If you're craving an English muffin breakfast sandwich, come here!

    Tasty breakfast muffins! I didn't try the coffee selection but I did enjoy my chicken sausage muffin. It was prepared pretty quick! Price is on the higher end but sometimes you have to treat yourself. Only other drawback are their hours; I'm not hungry for them during breakfast hours but when I have the afternoon cravings they are closed! Look out for there seasonal selections. Their current "drop" is a soyrizo sandwich that looks so good! I'll have to save that for another trip, hopefully early enough in the day.

    Their specialty is Muffin sandwiches & they are good and made to order. You can add hash browns but mainly just muffin sandos on the menu. Coffee options are delightful and all look delicious. I tried their iced raspberry mocha latte with no whip cream. I have tried their banana latte before. They're both great tasting. They do have some seasonal muffin sandwiches and also yogurt and açaí fruit bowls as well as teas & fresh squeezed orange juice. Today was crowded as they were offering a special treat for the first 300 customers & ran out early. The service was slow but steady. They do have outdoor seating and a bathroom for customers

    After a Dream Come True Bowl and a Cold Brew, nothing more to see here

    Been a Muffia for about 5 years mostly at the Glendale location, but the DTLA is closer now. I'm happy everything is generally freshly prepared, the hash browns can be on/off depending on how busy they are (busy=better/fresher) but the added veggies are fresh. Best is eaten on site since containering any of this causes steam to make things much less crisp. I do note every sandwich can be ordered as a Bowl, which basically skips the muffin and turns it keto/low-carb. (No discount or extra fee but you get added veg to make up for the missing muffin.) I do love their coffee especially. The place is generally mellow though there is an occasional guest music artist pop-up from time to time. This DTLA validates the adjacent underground parking. Street is scarce on weekends due to the number of residences in the area. Accessible entrance is the 12th Street side and the exit is the other driveway door.

    Beautiful murals.

    Great place to stop for a quick breakfast sandwich and coffee. Friendly staff and a decent amount of seating for dining in. Ambiance is chill with music playing, sort of small coffee shop vibes. Beautiful Kobe murals right across the street.

    Soooo, co-workers and I looking for morning breakfast sandwiches. Muffin Can Stop Us pops up on my Yelp feed. Pictures are sooo cool & pretty! Food looks yummy ‍ *If you want breakfast sandwiches they Got it! * you want waffles they got it! * you don't want anything heavy say less they have Açaí bowl, yogurt parfait, & over night oats! * Fresh juice * a variety of different iced & hot lattes * Even have a kids menu! I had blueberry muffin & açaí bowl with oat Milk latte oh & hash brown for 1.95 seasoned with a hint of special seasoning So flavorful & perfect! My co workers had classic Americano sandwich & hash brown & the other had the açaí bowl too & the vaccino (she let me try the drink & it was soooo amazingly good!) I give this place 5stars! For the service & honestly the prices are really good!!! For the average working person who can't afford a $10 latte and $20 breakfast sandwich!!! The quality is official too! It was plenty of street parking. I paid a meter. The DTLA area is decent too! I will be headed back there

    Date of visit: 1/18/2025 We tried a couple of things here: - mine: Americano (cheese, egg & crispy bacon) with added hash brown & avocado inside. - my son's: Dream Come True (crispy bacon, chicken sausage, egg, cheddar, spinach, tomato, avocado) with added hash brown inside. With food, first bite says it all. It goes a long way and leaves a lasting impression. Just like our first bites of our muffins. They were so good, that my son ordered his 2nd, this time Americano just so he can try a different one on the menu. Not a coffee drinker, I ordered OJ instead to share (forgot to take a pic of it). The OJ here is without pulp. I prefer mine with lots of it. If you need a quick bfast near USC that opens as early as 7 am, def come here and let the Muffin stop you!

    Found this spot for a quick breakfast grab around my work. I got dream come true muffin and vaccino iced coffee. Muffin is on a pricier side but it came out a lot of ingredients. The sauce came in a separate container which I liked for a to go order. Coffee was so so, but it is expected since it is not a cafe. My order came out in like 5 minutes. Overall, it is a very decent grab a quick muffin in the morning.

    Had breakfast here during the week and it was lovely! Line was short and the food came out fast. The muffin that I got was really good, and the bread itself was toasted to perfection. Hash brown on the side was a must, although a bit pricey, in my opinion. Good amount of seating for the small space, and lots of good natural light. Employees at the register were really nice, and I also like that they had water cups with fruit infused water that was complementary. Will definitely come back for breakfast here!!

    I woke up early and noticed this place was open at 7 AM. I was excited to give it a try, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. [Food 3/5]: I ordered the Dream Come True, and my friend had the Americano Muffin. Both were pretty average in terms of taste. They reminded me of a McDonald's breakfast with In-N-Out-style sauce. For the price, I expected something fresher and healthier. [Service 3/5]: We ordered pickup on our food delivery app, but it wasn't confirmed for a while, so we headed over and it was already prepared. It didn't seem busy at all when we got there, so maybe the staff could be more attentive on online orders would've been appreciated. [Ambiance 4/5]: The shop looked clean and nicely decorated, with plenty of outdoor seating available to enjoy your meal. Overall, since I prefer healthier food options and this place didn't align with that preference, I don't think I'll be returning.

    I was headed to dinner at the fabulous Holbox, but driving there from Hollywood at rush hour is…read morenever a good idea. So I looked for a coffee spot closer to the restaurant at which I could do some work. Alibi Coffee is only 10-15 minutes from the restaurant, which made it a good candidate--and off I went. It sits on the corner of Washington and Raymond Avenue. While there's one-hour parking on Washington, Raymond seems to offer unlimited parking (other than street cleaning days)--the friendly, helpful barista directed me over there. Inside, it's a tranquil, clean and comfortable environment that mixes contemporary touches with brick industrial vibes. I'm in my cream top era, so I decided to get their Trademark Cream Top Latte, which uses cold brew and house made cream with a hint of brown sugar. The drink was smooth and not too sweet and, all in all, extremely enjoyable. Next time, I might try the Salted Caramel Cream Top Latte. I was warned it was a bit sweeter, but I'd like to see for myself. Wi-Fi seems solid, and there are plenty of outlets (yay!), so this was a great work spot. I'd definitely return anytime I needed to be in this area.

No bitterness, no chalky aftertaste that cheaper ceremonial-grade pretenders leave behind. Just clean, grassy depth with a texture that's silky rather than gritty. This is someone who actually sources well and knows how to whisk Didn't stop there. The seasonal peach jasmine tea was the surprise standout ..floral jasmine up front, real peach sweetness (not syrup-bomb fake fruit) on the back end. Balanced in a way that seasonal drinks rarely pull off; most places either overdo the fruit or underdo the tea. This one's dialed in. Iced Spanish latte rounded things out and didn't miss either; espresso with enough backbone to cut through the condensed milk instead of getting buried by it. A lot of places let the sweetness take over; ROK kept the coffee actually tasting like coffee. 4 drinks, zero misses. That's not luck; that's a program that's actually dialed in behind the counter. This isn't a place riding on aesthetics and a good logo the drinks back it up. The matcha is legit, good quality stuff Come open up in OC you batches
