Tartine Sycamore
911 N Sycamore Ave, Los Angeles, CA
Crema's Take
“Tartine Sycamore is a pastry-forward café where the almond croissants are legendary for their perfect balance of buttery and crispy, and the espresso is handled with real care—ask for Johnny if you want top-tier shots. It's the kind of place that feels equally welcoming whether you're settling in alone for a meditative morning or meeting friends over fresh sourdough and impeccable ham and cheese croissants, with that cozy, unhurried vibe that makes you want to linger.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast and pastries on the menu.

I wanted to treat myself to a nice solo breakfast so I knew going in that this bakery/cafe was going to be on the pricier side but I still cringed at the total once I added sausage to my breakfast sandwich. That being said the food here speaks for itself and the flavor defends…
