Crema's Take
“Franklin's Cafe wins you over with genuinely friendly baristas and a solid lineup of coffee drinks that don't try to be anything fancier than they are. The breakfast burritos and pastries are reliable comfort food, made better by the fact that you can actually find parking here—a genuine miracle in LA—and the minimalist vibe makes it feel less chaotic than typical Griffith Park spots. Just skip the microwaved quiches and grab something you can eat fresh.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, quick-grab spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Parking available.

It was open from 7am. I had breakfast during waiting in line for the concert at the greek theater. I ordered salmon quiche and coffee. The taste was just okay, but I could be chilled before the concert.
Nice spot here! Very cool decor. Adjacent to the golf facility. Usually enough parking in the lot out front. Cool minimalist ecstatic. Food and drink was varied and pretty deep in terms of selection. The pricing is likely on par with typical golf cafes (a little inflated).
Came here Tuesday in the afternoon and it was great! Plenty of parking (amazing in LA), great coffee and very friendly and helpful Baristas, and the food was really good. I had the breakfast burrito and it was so much food and really delicious, also prompt service. Nice fun spot…
