Nature's Brew by Bacari

Ugh. Food based on fresh produce (omelette with real eggs, the banana bread is great), all gluten-free. We arrived around 8:20 a.m., 1st customers in the room. Very noisy environment, it's even worse in the room than near their counter: noise from fridges and/or air conditioning and/or coffee grinding constantly. The 3 together is unbearable. High prices, room cleaning not optimal. The tallest waitress is also the only one who really smiles; the other one seemed annoyed just talking to us. The cook did not respond to our hello.

This place! Swoon. I work at the 10/110 interchange on Figueroa and there are very few places nearby that have everything this place has to offer. Cute cafe with plenty of seating, off-street parking and semi-available street parking, a great menu selection with both vegan and gluten free options (sweet and savory, with tasty GF ciabatta no less), and really good coffee. I am non-celiac high-sensitivity, and it's difficult to find gluten free options downtown that are readily accessible for a quick break during work. My herb omelet hit the spot.
