Coffee/Food

One of my favorite places for a great cup of coffee, glass of wine and to pick up a artistic greeting card and coconut macaroon. Yumm! The restaurant next door- Poor Richards, shares the space and has the most amazing slice of pizza, fresh salads and soups of the day. Plan on metered parking in front OR park on Tejon where there are no meters and walk over.
