The Original Pantry Cafe

There was a long line outside when we arrived however, it moved very quickly. I had the biscuit and gravy breakfast and it was the best I’ve ever had. My husband had the French toast plate and that was also very delicious. The only thing I expected more from were the potatoes. They were good but lacked a bit of flavor. I will definitely visit this place again!

Yes, you'll probably wait, but it's worth it. Tons of delicious food for your money, great atmosphere, and despite the wait, the food will come out so fast it seems magical. Oh, and I can't believe I'm talking about this of all things, but I wish I could buy their sourdough bread. It's so good. Bacon and cheese omelette is also just so good. I order it every time.

Love Love Love this spot! It is one of my favorites to stop by on my way to work, for lunch, and even for dinner! It is CASH ONLY so definitely make sure you stop by the ATM on your way. They do have an ATM inside, but of course they do charge ATM fees. The service is fairly quick and the staff are always friendly and efficient.

This place gets crowded with a line waiting outside the door, so I would keep this in mind especially if you are going with a group as this place isn't very large. They do have a counter (diner style) where you can grab an available stool and begin to order.

The menu has classic breakfast items - pancakes, french toast, fresh coffee, waffles, etc. Everything seems to always be made fresh and delicious. 100% one of my favorite dining places in LA.

My first Time here. Very cute place and old school diner vibe. Cash Only so come prepared. I had the cheeseburger and it was excellent. It came with a big portion of fries. We also got some delicious Cole slaw before our meal. Probably the best I've ever had. I ordered a Pepsi and was surprised how good it tasted. I prefer Coke so I was expecting the Pepsi to not be very sweet but it was.
We went around 8:30 pm on a Sunday and we didn't have to wait very long to be seated. Prob less than 10 min. No menus given, menu items are posted up on the walls.
Very cute place and the customer service was excellent! Our waiter was so nice and really good and very attentive.
I loved my first visit here. I'll definitely be coming back soon.

Always a go to spot in the downtown LA area. Some of the usual dishes I get is the spaghetti and meatballs and the fried chicken is always a good option. Super hot and crispy, but not super oily. Very large portions so well worth the price. Definitely come by hungry. Service is always excellent and very attentive.
