LA Café is a 24 hour café in the heart of Downtown LA. A great place to end the night, or start your morning. Their large menu has enough to satisfy munchies at any time of the day.

It was my first meal in LA and the lobster grilled cheese is a must try.. also the thai ice team. Sitting is limited but cute and cozy !

Adrian Phillips

Probably the most consistent delivery and food downtown. Tuna Panini with chips (don't get fries for delivery they aren't good travelers) or Bangkok Salad are my usual staples. Brownies are good too.

Justin Ordoveza

Love that it's open 24 hours . The food is fresh and the servers are friendly . The mezze platter was excellent especially the falafel .

Headed here with a couple of friends after the bars closed down. A random stranger (drunk) told me to get the Lobster Grilled Cheese and that it would change my life. It in fact, has changed my life.

Anelle

if you want to be healthy yet craving a panini , you have the option to order half and half ! half of a salad , half of a panini ! boom! treating yourself + being healthy! ????

Cherith Zanghi

The sparse seating is weirdly cramped and a little hard to navigate, but they're working with what they've got. LOVE that it's 24 hours . Cookies , Thai tea amazing, grilled cheese overrated.

Amaya

This is my jam . Love their fries , pastries , and especially panini style egg sandwiches . Reminds me of Puerto Rico :)

Anthony Williams

I wound up here on a random, crazy L.A. night, helping out a stranger. I bought him some food and had some of the homemade chips -- pretty good. And open 24 hours ? I'll be back.

Sonya Enser

Love their brownies , cookies & other sweets. Plus the chili cheese fries were so good & enough for 2!

Mike Lokken

This is my friends' favorite place. They come almost everyday to have the lobster grilled cheese . A new level of flavor satisfaction. Like, out of this world.

I discovered LA Cafe in 2010. When it's hot, get there early and sit outside for lunch , and enjoy both the food and the service. In fact, the service is not bad for L.A.

LA Cafe is super popular with DTLA locals. It''s open late , has cute outdoor seating , and all the food is tasty. The best part is checking out all the hot young guys who live in the apartments above! Read more

Great fresh-squeezed juice , and open 24 hours a day. What more could you want?! No good indoor seating, though.

Abi Panicker

Friendly staff , downtown staple, wait times are long during peak times due to their popularity, plan accordingly

The Mexicali steak salad and the orange Julius smoothie it's a delicious summer combination for lunch or dinner .
