Tartine Sycamore

Hands down best Almond Croissant in town! Their pastries are delicious and made fresh daily. The almond croissant are the perfect ratio of buttery and crispy. And the almond paste inside isn’t decadent but rather proportionately balanced. Truly the best in town if you like your croissants fresh and a little crispy on the edges. They do run out, so make sure to come early!

I always come here alone in the early mornings, something cozy and calming about it. I usually grab a loaf of sourdough, though this batch wasn’t their best. Still, the service is great, the pastries are consistently good, and honestly… this might be the best location in all of LA.

5 Stars This place nails it on every level—coffee, food, people, vibe. The espresso is top-tier (trust the barista named Johnny—he knows what he’s doing), and the fresh bread is no joke: warm, crusty, and the kind that disappears before your food even hits the table. Every dish I’ve tried feels dialed in—simple, fresh, and done with care. It’s also one of those rare spots that somehow pulls off being ideal for a work meeting, a casual hang, or just zoning in with your laptop for a few hours. The atmosphere is modern but warm, with just the right amount of bustle. You’re surrounded by a new little enclave of shops and restaurants, so it’s easy to turn a coffee stop into an afternoon outing. General Manager Jonny runs the place with that rare combo of attention to detail and laid-back charm—you feel like a regular by your second visit. Between him and Barista Johnny, the service here sets the tone: friendly, fast, and actually thoughtful. If you’re looking for a place that does all-day café right—this is it.

More for more ham and cheese croissants… Back again, ham and cheese croissants again, tried something new this time - chia pudding, was OK Stopped by again for breakfast, besides the ham and cheese croissant, tried a morning bun. Both were delicious and above Average. Recommended. Raising rating from 3 to 4 Stopped by for a breakfast snack. Doors opened late at 08:05, service at counter was below average, counter person only asked whether it’s for dine in or take out. Not asking or offering to heat up the ham and cheese croissant, not offering a beverage, no Nepkins offered. Makes you think about recruiting and training standards here.. The croissant was a little greasy but delicious. Above average for sure. I’ll come back to explore more options soon.

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 the price. The sandwich tastes as good as it looks, and judging by the pastries, they also look really well crafted. I look forward to coming back and trying some of the sweets! The cafe is also just really pretty and a good spot if you wanna get some work done while treating yourself to a nice breakfast.
