Stories Books and Cafe

Located in the vibrant neighborhood of Echo Park in Los Angeles, Stories Books and Cafe offers a unique blend of literary charm and cozy cafe vibes. As a food reviewer of Restaurant World, I cannot help but be impressed by the array of utilities this establishment offers. From takeout and delivery options to gender-neutral restrooms and plastic-free packaging, Stories Books and Cafe ticks all the boxes when it comes to catering to modern needs.

But it's not just about the utilities; the customer reviews speak volumes about the experience that awaits visitors. From Danny S.'s rave about the delicious vegan hippie sandwich to Henry M.'s appreciation for the eclectic ambiance and good lattes, it's evident that this little bookstore/cafe has won the hearts of many. For coffee lovers like Mari J., the quality beans and quaint cafe area are sure to delight, while Alana K. and Alejandra G. highlight the variety of books and trinkets available for browsing.

What sets Stories Books and Cafe apart, in my opinion, is the sense of community and creativity it fosters. Nubia O.'s mention of book release events, live music, and community gatherings on the back patio adds a layer of depth to the experience. This isn't just a place to grab a coffee and a sandwich; it's a hub of storytelling, connection, and inspiration.

As I reflect on the reviews and the unique offerings of Stories Books and Cafe, I can't help but feel a sense of excitement. The thought of browsing through shelves of books, sipping on a latte, and sharing in the creative energy of the space fills me with anticipation.

Make sure to follow them on Instagram for updates on future events and don't miss out on their delicious pastries, especially the lemon cake and cardamom bun.

    I am a huge fan of this establishment! While it may be on the smaller side, the variety of books available is truly outstanding. The cafe area, which even boasts a spacious outdoor section, is simply delightful. I can't seem to stop thinking about the sandwich I enjoyed there last Sunday; it was so delicious that it's still on my mind come Wednesday! The hippie sandwich, which I opted to have vegan, was a real standout.

    This little bookstore/cafe in Echo Park is the kind of overstuffed place I love! Lots of books, good lattes and tables outside to chill. Eclectic crowd and not too many hipsters. I will visit again when I am back on the east side of LA!

    Ordered iced coffee , it has a good taste,I can tell that they have good beans. Personnel was not too friendly even I was smiling at her.. maybe I forget to add tip. :) There are few tables but they have a back area that looks pretty neat. This is inside a bookstore- that's a cool part . Rest room at the time of my visit needs to get attention:)

    I came here with some friends to browse on a Wednesday afternoon. Such a cute spot with books, stationary/trinkets, and a cafe in the back.
