Little Barn Coffee House — Restaurant in Los Angeles

Was really hoping to love this place as I had read an article on VegNews and was excited to try their food, especially the croissant as it’s a personal favorite of mine. My bf and I drove 40 minutes to get there, only to find out they decided to close early so we only have about 30 minutes to order and eat. I asked what pastries they had, the lady at the register said they only had chocolate chip cookies and carrot cake left. No problem we ordered a breakfast burrito and a chicken pesto sandwich. As we are waiting in the seating area I noticed the people who ordered before us had gotten a croissant breakfast sandwich so my bf went back to the register to find out if they had any more available. They said they just had chocolate croissants, ok great we bought it (though I really wished I hadn’t!). Our food comes out but they gave us the wrong sandwich, a croissant breakfast sandwich not the chicken pesto sandwich. So my bf goes back to the register to inform them we got the wrong food. Lady at the register was super nice said they would make the chicken pesto sandwich for us and that we could keep the wrong sandwich since it was already made. Ok that’s great. Skip to 5 mins later when another lady comes to our table to say she is going to take the croissant sandwich from us because they were making the other sandwich, however we had already eaten half of the sandwich. She wanted to throw away the food rather then let us finish eating it after we were told to keep it. I said if you don’t want to give us the chicken pesto, you can just refund us the price difference of the sandwich since it was $2 less. She then tried to argue that the price was the same, when it wasn’t, and then walked away when we wouldn’t relent. The whole situation left us really uncomfortable, like we were trying to steal food when it was their mistake. Simply bad customer service. To top it off the food was pretty bland, the tofu egg was flavorless and the chocolate croissant was old and stale! I don’t even feel comfortable calling what they gave us a croissant. We ended up throwing it away because neither of us could eat it, and that’s really saying something because my bf eats pretty much anything. I love supporting vegan businesses but we will not be returning and telling our vegan friends to stay...

First time in this area and only found 2 vegan breakfast places so wasn't feeling very confident on my options. HOWEVER, Little Barn blew my mind! It's woman and Latinx OWNED which I was excited to see! They have a great selection of sandwiches as well. It took me a while to order because I had a lot of questions and the cashier was very patient with me. The first sandwich ordered I substituted Daiya cheese for Follow Your Heart but it didn't melt very well. I went up and asked for a replacement and Celeste (one of the owners) not only remade my order, she also let me keep the original sandwich as well! Celeste and I had a conversation about me being meticulous with texture and do not prefer the Daiya brand. She said that they use a particular type of shreds that are only made for restaurants and she encouraged me to try it saying that others who had tried it said it was incredible and they didn't even believe that it was Daiya. Low and behold she was right!! The cheese came out gooey and melted and I couldn't tell that it was Daiya whatsoever! Not to mention BEST VEGAN BISCUIT IN 3 DECADES!! Was so tickled to have tried it and even more tickled with how amazing the customer service was and how special Celeste made me feel. Good customer service is hard to find these days and this place goes above all the rest!! There may not be a lot of breakfast places in this area, BUT that doesn't matter as this is the only breakfast place that you need! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU Celeste! Will...

Cute hole-in-the-wall, all-vegan place with great food. They self-identify as a "togo-only facility" since customers are expected to order food and pick-up at a window. But the existence of a secret outdoor patio in the back with a handful of tables makes it closer to a quick service restaurant!

Service at the window was great and it gives the vibes of a community restaurant. They have plenty of choices including cafe drinks (coffee, chai, lattes, etc.), an all-day breakfast menu, and more.

The patio is cute and the ambiance was cozy. It had a peaceful, isolated-from-the-city feel and we even saw someone with their laptop open getting some work done. It's shaded by trees and was very clean.

We got the hash-brown burrito, monte cristo, and the pumpkin spice latte.

Hash-brown burrito - it's a medium-sized burrito that was delicious and served piping hot. It didn't come with any sides or sauces, but they had packets of cholula hot sauce upon request.

Monte cristo - it seemed like a grilled-cheese sandwich, except the bread was replaced with french toast. It's served with syrup on the side. I thought it was nothing short of fantastic, but my girlfriend pointed out that the sweetness of the bread and the savoriness of the cheese didn't match too well.

Pumpkin spice latte - we got it iced. Pretty good. Sweet. Served in a 16oz cup (same as a grande size at Starbucks).

Note: they have...
