48 hrs in Echo Park + Silverlake: Eat + Drink + Do
Exploring the Eastside of LA.
EAT + DRINK
COFFEE + BRUNCH + LUNCH + SWEETS
Eightfold Coffee. Located at 1294 W Sunset Blvd. Serving Heart Coffee. Expect the perfect mix of great coffee, creative vibes, and the nicest baristas. NOTE: They also serve cold press juices which we loved.
Blue Bottle Coffee. Located at 1712 W Sunset Blvd. Order the New Orleans Ice Coffee. Note: They also serve small bites (i.e. avo toast, breakfast sammys, granola, etc.)
Alfred Coffee + Kitchen. "But first, coffee" Located at 3337 1/2 Sunset Blvd. There are multiple locations all throughout LA. Expect Alfred to be serving Stumptown Coffee + have the cutest vibes + decor.
Dinette. Coffee + Morning/Afternoon Bites. Located at 1608 1/2 Sunset Blvd. Go for their Iced Americano (+almond milk) and avotoast!! Note: There is no indoor seating and it can be a bit loud sitting right off Sunset Blvd. Also. Their waffles, pizzas, and other breakfast boards looked delish.
Ostrich Farm. Located at 1525 W Sunset Blvd. Go for bunch Tues - Sun. NOTE: Rumor has it their HH and Dinner is top notch.
* Voted one of the top brunch spots in the area, by us
HAPPY HOUR + DINNER + LATE NIGHT HANGS
Same Same. Thai + Wine Bar. Located at 2835 Sunset Blvd. Order just about anything on the menu. You won't be disappointed.
Silverlake Ramen. Located at 2927 W Sunset Blvd. Order the vegetable ramen (add egg) + Pork bun.
Edendale. American (New). Located at 2838 Rowena Ave. This is a "Top 10" stop according to us. They have two patio hangs that make for the perfect spot for small bites, a cocktail, or a glass of rose. If you want something light, order the Blue Crab Toast. NOTE: The building itself is an old firehouse. So cool (!!)
DO + PLAY
Echo Park Lake is a beautiful spot to picnic, relax, pedal boat, go for a jog, and/or sit back and observe the large water feature in the middle of the lake.
That's all for now..
