A Hidden Korean-Style Brunch Gem in Ktown

Spring in LA calls for brunch in a sunny, plant-filled courtyard—and The Barn Cafe & Restaurant in Koreatown delivers exactly that! Tucked inside a charming two-story house with vintage European decor, this spot features a lush, relaxed backyard patio bursting with greenery. After recent rains, the sky was brilliantly blue—making it the perfect setting for photos, whether of the food or your brunch squad 📸💐 I initially expected a “pretty but mediocre” meal given the vibe, but every dish we ordered impressed us: 🦪 Crispy Fried Oysters — perfectly golden and flavorful 🍝 Mentaiko Pasta — rich, savory, and satisfying 🦐 Citrus Shrimp Salad — refreshing, generous, and full of brightness 🍛 Hamburg Steak Rice Bowl — a crowd-pleaser with juicy patty and savory sauce My friends and I lingered for hours—eating, chatting, and snapping pics—and the bill came out to just over $20 per person! A beautiful setting, tasty food, Instagram-worthy moments, and affordable? This place deserves to be on everyone’s list. Valet parking is available for $3, making it super convenient too. 📍 The Barn Cafe & Restaurant 228 S Oxford Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90004 #WeekendVibes #FoodInspo #LADiscovery #LAEats#KtownBrunch #BrunchGoals #GardenDining #AffordableLA
