Cafe Knotted Westfield Century City
10250 Santa Monica Blvd, Los Angeles, CA
Crema's Take
“This Seoul-born donut café has captured LA hearts with impossibly soft, cream-filled donuts that strike the perfect balance between indulgence and restraint—their original cream filling is genuinely not overly sweet, which sets them apart in a city saturated with sugar-bomb pastries. Located in Westfield Century City with its own parking and breathing room, Cafe Knotted feels like a whimsical escape rather than another cramped coffee shop, making it equally suited for a quick grab or lingering over coffee with friends. The warm, attentive staff and donut-forward menu have earned them a devoted following, though fair warning: TikTok hype means some visitors come with outsized expectations.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Pastries on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.
