Urth Caffe
I take food very seriously and my Whole Foods grocery bill shows it. Wanting to eat healthy, unprocessed, organic food with ease makes it hard for me to want to eat out. Thankfully, there’s Urth Caffe.
With several locations around LA, which always seeming to be busy, Urth Cafe has been preparing whole, gourmet, organic food since opening it’s doors on Melrose in 1998. Their pesto chicken salad, mushroom omelet with Swiss and granola with fresh fruit and yogurt dish are among the favorites. Their homemade desserts are beyond heaven - from tiramasu to pumpkin cheesecake it’s all good. If you tend to sample a bit too much, no worries. Eating here doesn’t leave you feeling bulbous since all food contains natural ingredients prepared in simply yet tasty ways.
And if you’re not hungry, the coffee and tea bar is incredible (and worth a drive in the morning for me). Their chai tea latte with honey has no caffeine but gives you pep just the same. Lavender tea can be sipped inside or bought in loose leaf to take home. One of the first organic coffee sellers in America, Urth Caffe is currently one of the highest grossing cafes in the nation by square foot. With incredible food and coffee all reasonably priced, once you’re here it’s easy to see why - everyone keeps coming back.
The busiest location is on Melrose, where stars flock and people hang out to be noticed. But if you can get past the scene it’s well worth it - healthy food that tastes sinfully good.
