This is hands down my favorite place for brunch in LA and part of the reason I moved to Los Feliz. Stop by for a delicious brunch (the potatoes, eggs fungi, ricotta pancakes, and breakfast pizza are all amazing), or a yummy Italian American style dinner. Jon Hamm's booth is right by the entrance (there's a plaque).

This is a spin off of Whole Foods, meant at a more bargain price. Seriously, this place is a hipster scene! But the food is good and affordable. The parking is challenging but worth checking out if you don't have one of these in your town.

Parks & Nature

The hike from Fern Dell to the Observatory is one of the most popular in LA. There's an alternate hike that you can take from the Vermont Canyon entrance of the park. Fantastic views and the Observatory is cool too! Take lots of pictures of the Hollywood sign and the James Dean statue.

See and be seen at the neighborhood's trendiest reservoir. The 2.2 mile track around the reservoir is a popular walking/jogging route. There's also two grassy parks for relaxing and a very lively dog park. There's a great coffee shop within walking distance called LA Mill

Really nice wooded park at the base of Griffith Park. It feels like you're not in LA. About a 1.1 mile walk from my apartment. There's an outdoor cafe in the park up the hill called Trails Cafe that great for a coffee, breakfast, or lite lunch.

You can visit the original Batcave and also taking a fairly strenuous hike up to the Hollywood sign if you want to get a workout. It's worth it for the amazing views!

There are several entrances to Griffith Park and many miles of hiking trails. From my apartment, the closest entrance is up Vermont. Immediately turn left from my building and start walking up hill. You'll eventually reach Roosevelt Golf Course, which is the official entrance. There are several hiking trails that spin off from there, including a route to the Observatory. I come up here several days per week.

Sightseeing

This is a Frank Lloyd Wright building located in the middle of Barnsdall Art Park, which is a secret park right in the middle of the city. Great views up there, and a great spot for picnicing. If you look it up, you might be able to tour the house. About a 20 min walk from my apartment.

Another Frank Lloyd Wright building in the middle of the Hollywood hills. This is a super fun walk (lots of hills though) through a very fancy and old and very Hollywood neighborhood. You can take this as a back way to Griffith Park. This building is bananas and totally worth seeing. You can walk here from my apartment starting from Vermont Avenue (it's a workout).
