Coffee in NoHo Arts District

A coffeehouse on Magnolia a block off Lankershim that sells whole pies and slices, sweet and savory, and runs live music on a small stage most nights of the week with no cover. Opens at 9am, which makes it the default place in the NoHo Arts District to sit for an hour before a curtain. Tables fill with people working and the music starts in the evening without anybody clearing the laptops out.

Mon to Wed, 9am to 8:30pm. Thu, 9am to 9pm. Fri and Sat, 8:30am to 9pm. Sun, 9am to 9pm

A small café on the same block of Lankershim as the theater, open 8am to 8pm seven days. They make crepes to order, savory and sweet, along with French omelettes, baklava and sandwiches, and the coffee runs to the flavored end of the spectrum. Plain filter is on the board too. It is counter order, then sit.

Mon to Fri, 7am to 8pm. Sat and Sun, 8am to 8pm
