The Trails Cafe Los Angeles Reviews
Finally tried it 😄 After so many years of walking, hiking and running! Loved it and you must try it 👍🏽 I had the Good Day Latte (delicious) and my husband had a regular Latte with oat milk. For pastry we tried the lavender shortbread and blueberry/banana muffin 😋 Plenty of options to choose from! Enjoy 😁
A very nice coffee shop; it feels like you're in the woods. The staff is friendly, the prices are reasonable, and there are plenty of tables and benches. The only downside is that the benches are concrete and cold. The apple pie was delicious, the coffee tasted a bit sour, but we really liked everything. They have internet, which is great because my phone's internet doesn't work. I recommend it.
I came out for an outing with my dogs and stopped by this café for a simple breakfast. I didn’t expect much, but the avocado sandwich was incredibly delicious. I’ll definitely come back again!
This is one of the best little coffee shops in los angeles in my opinion. The vibes here are immaculate.You're surrounded by nature.They have a fantastic breakfast menu, including a thing called an egg in a basket which is my favorite.
If you are planning a walking tour of the Griffith Park, all the way up to the Griffith Observatory, this is a great place to make a stop and enjoy good pastries and coffee. It is usually pretty crowded but, be patient - it’s definitely worth your time. For a quick rest, enjoy the sun in the garden in the back.
We love this place. At the foot of the Ferndell observatory loop it offers healthy sandwiches fresh lemonade and some tasty snacks. On hot days there's usually a line and they're not open Mondays. But they're definitely dog friendly with the water bowl and treats at the window if you ask - or your dog asks. We've seen this place transition over the years and it is really become a nice place to sit out and enjoy the park at one of the picnic tables, up in the hay Circle or just under the trees. Nice friendly people too. But shhhh. Or else it will be overrun with tourists
We love this place. It had been a favorite stop with the kids when they were young after a beautiful stroll through Ferndell. We hadn’t been there in years and it did not disappoint. The baked goods, the lemonade, the avocado sandwich and snakedog (an all beef hotdog, wrapped in a flakey pastry). Just a minutes long walk from the bustling streets of LA and your transported away to Big Bear or some other mountain retreat, but with the kind of top notch little trays you’d expect from some of the Los Felix eateries a stones throw away. Whether you are finishing your journey here, spending some time with the kids at the adjacent playground, or taking the short trail up to Griffith Observatory, it’s well worth the stop!
After a hike, this was a lovely spot to grab a coffee or a refreshing drink. They also sell some snacks, although we didn’t try any. It’s a simple little cabin in the woods, with a laid-back vibe that fits perfectly with the surroundings. Nothing fancy, just a charming, down-to-earth place to take a break and enjoy the moment.
This is a very nice place to get coffee, a sandwich or baked goods before or after your hike around Fern Dell all the way to Griffith observatory and beyond or...., you are nearby. They have coffee, tea, sandwiches (vegetarian options) hot dogs and baked goods. The outdoor dining area is like a picnic in the forest .
Woodland outdoor setting with picnic style shaded seating. It's beautiful and simple. It's nice to have a snack shack when you're on a hike/walk; no question about it. Food is good, nothing special. Pricey at $8.25 for a PB&J or $12 for Avocado sandwich. Service could use some cheer or a smile. Atmosphere: Gorgeous "Fern Dell" you can't beat it!❤️
I love this place. It's a beautiful & (mostly) peaceful place to enjoy a snack after my hike. Been going here for years sometimes after my hike. It's a really cute place with plenty of seating. Food usually tastes great; they have pies, cookies, and many other options. Cappuccino's always taste great and have cute design in the foam on top. Prices are reasonable, I believe food is made fresh daily. They have vegan options which is great (a close friend is vegan). Depending on the time of the day, the line get REALLY long so I don't even bother because they're a bit slow sometimes. Parking is plenty on the street (no lot).
I’ve been coming for the last couple of years and the drinks are good , I have gotten the egg in a basket on 2 separate times and it tasted like dish soap. I got the quiche one time and it also tasted like dish soap. As anything that is probably baked with silicone will taste like soap. And it’s always at the bottom to where I can’t even say I want a refund because it’s almost eaten.
Ok food. The servers were welcoming, but got our order for food wrong. Had to ask them twice to get our food. Once delivered, it was good. Several golfers were customers and they got better service than we did. The cleaning staff was efficient and avoided intruding on our table. We had a dog with us and the staff were very nice to him, even feeding him treats.
