Little Michelle’s Natural Cafe & Bakery

Love the new neighborhood place and the new friendly and kind owners. The location is amazing but the food and friendly service is the best!

Great neighborhood café. The food is fresh and very tasty. The baked goods are delicious and there’s a great variety to choose from. Would definitely recommend it.

Came here for breakfast and glad I did. The food is delicious. I really loved the eggs Benedict I ordered. Great atmosphere, very friendly staff and excellent service. Can’t wait to try other dishes. Will definitely come back

I always order the oatmeal with fruit… Let me tell you, this is the best oatmeal in LA. It comes with fruit, brown sugar (if you’d like) and milk. It tastes great and the oats she uses are thick and tasty.
Definitely would recommend.

This place is new and amazing! It has everything. The pastries are all so good. My favorite is the raspberry tart. I also really enjoyed the grilled chicken panini with a side salad. Definitely a cute place for breakfast or lunch with indoor and patio seats.

Little Michelle’s bakery is now a favorite of mine! I stopped by because I saw the gluten-​free sign and to my surprise there were many very very yummy treats to suit my gluten-​free lifestyle. I went in with my sisters who are not gluten-​free and they two were smitten by the tasty desserts. I would definitely recommend this place for those who are and those who are not gluten-​free. Everything is wonderful and I am planning on getting my birthday cake from her. I also want to mention that Michelle, the owner of this great bakery, is one of the sweetest business owners in the area. Wishing much success to this very needed business! Thank you Little Michelle’s!!!

I pretty much come to this place every day and I cannot stay away! From their delicious breakfast, to healthy smoothies, to their amazing lunch… I am hooked on Michelle! There are always friendly faces, they serve gluten free options, and inside is super cozy. Oh and their desserts and baked goods? Scrumptious.

I first discovered this location as a bakery back when it was known as ToC. It had one of the best almond croissants I’ve had in the LA area to date.
I came to Michelle’s knowing that the owner had changed, but hoping that like the décor, the quality might have remained the same. Sadly, that wasn’t the case.
Gone is the charming French owner and ever so sweet employees that spoke Français perfectly and with them went the recipe to the oh so delicious and flakey almond croissant. Don’t get me wrong the almond croissant is good but they’re missing the wow factor that the ones at ToC had and they’re significantly smaller. I suppose the search goes on.

Absolutely LOVE this place. Such a cute restaurant with amazing food and really hilarious staff — super friendly and always checking to make sure everything is going well.
Just started a gluten free diet under my doctors orders and this place is super friendly with that diet. My favorite is the gluten free brownie and the gluten free peanut butter chocolate chip cookie (to DIE for) — legit obsessed. Their ice tea is also a MUST. I get it every time I go and then I get a second for when I leave so I can drink it in the car. I have a slight addiction to it.
Today for the first time I got a chicken and pesto panini and asked for gluten free bread and it melted in my mouth. I finished the entire thing and I’m definitely gonna get it again when I go back! This restaurant is a hidden gem and anyone who finds it and makes the trip won’t regret it!

Excellent Iced latte. Made with so much love. My other favorite options on the menu are two of the smoothies (the body and the almond one) and the burgers are all great especially the hangover one with the fried egg. Unique and quaint café vibe!

Unfortunately everything was pretty bad. I had a egg and chicken breakfast wrap, my wife had a turkey sandwich. Both were mediocre at best and the wrap tasted old. We paid an extra $ 2 for a side of fruit that was inedible, at least a day old, and tasted like onions. The turkey in my wife’s sandwich was old and slimy. Hopefully they’re able to improve the quality and freshness of the food. I can sum it up with one word YUCK!

Very nice clean place, even if in the middle of a Main Street, inside is very quiet.
The pastry are very good, I tried the gluten free chocolate brownie and it’s super tasty but not too heavy!
Price are reasonable considering the neighborhood.
Service is pretty awesome, people are super nice and welcoming.
The only reason I cannot give 5 stars is because of the coffee!
It could be better, it’s not very strong and the flavor isn’t the best, it’s average!
They should consider roasting their own blend or grind beans at the moment, that in my opinion will give them 5 stars.

Love their outdoor patio seating area.
The Service: Friendly. Efficient.
The Macarons: They use natural fruit purees to make all the beautiful colors. All the ingredients are natural. My favorite raspberry flavor. The fillings are real raspberry purees! Really good~
The Parking: Street metered parking

After having a delicious lunch here and after savoring a couple of different amazing pastries I decided to order an array of mini desserts for my friend’s going away party. I selected mini chocolate cupcakes, mini fruit tarts, mini chocolate tarts, and my favorite mini strawberry shortcakes; all were delicious and went faster than the food. I called the business and spoke with Michelle and she handled all the details and even delivered the pastries to my location in Santa Monica. I could not have been happier with my lunch but would even give extra stars for the desserts. If you want a delicious pasty or need dessert for a party give Michelle a call you won’t be disappointed!

I love this bakery and I think it’s the best I have ever been to. So far I have tried the bread with jam, chocolate chip cookies, peanut butter chocolate chip cookies, Red velvet cupcake, tres leches, cheesecake, the chicken pesto sandwich, grilled veggies sandwich and it was all amazing.
Nice staff, cute place, amazing food!

What a treat! My roomate and I decided to walk and see where our stomachs would take us… we found ourselves at Little Michelle ‘s and I was dying to try everything in the pastry case! We started with French Onion Soup and a Turkey and Avocado Sandwich that were just delightful. When we ordered I also purchased some mini cakes to go. (Can’t wait to try them!) Lena told us they were boxed and ready for us whenever we were ready but she would keep them in the refrigerator until then. She was fantasic, funny at the counter with customers and knowledgeable when we asked about menu options. She’s a keeper! She continued to check in and see if we needed anything. Just as we were heading out, Michelle brought us a suprise! She said the baker had just finished them, and they were the most amazing American Macaroons I’ve ever had! As soon as I’m not so full, I’ll be back!
Ps. There are samples on the counter and the brownies are going to be hard to resist next time

Little Michelle’s has quickly become one of my absolute favorite cafes in LA. The food is out of this world, as are the lattes. But what really sets this place apart is the staff, they are so friendly and outgoing. My favorite thing to get is the prosciutto panini and an Arnold Palmer. I honestly don’t know what these one and two star reviews are about because I experience nothing but five star experiences during my visits.
Give Little Michelle’s a try and you won’t be disappointed.

I really wanted to like this place but I found it to be really expensive for the coffee that I got in return. I ordered a small vanilla latte and it cost me about $ 6. The small felt smaller than a coffee that I’d get at a Starbuck’s or Coffee Bean.
It looks like it’s got potential — has a great location on third street across from Cedar’s. It’s large, has a nice outdoor patio. It also has a large array of pastry and tea cookies. They use Torani Syrup for flavoring their coffees which is my favorite syrup, it’s an Italian brand. Love their hazelnut & vanilla.
Overall, I hope they lower their prices. It’s really bad to feel ripped off first thing in the morning just starting your day.

Just left bought my Mother a smoothie she said it was great .they were also filming on the outside One of Abby dance student by the name of Nia she was sweet as pie so would I go back yes I would

OMG! You need to try this place!
I haven’t ate there at lunch or anything, but I had their desserts multiple times. And let me tell you, it will knock your socks off!
Their desserts are not small in size nor too sweet, just the way I like them (big and tasty)! They offer an array of items such as caramel glazed cream puffs to chocolate ganache cakes! Whoo hoo!
A must try would be their Lava Cake! OMG! Pretty are they yet delish!
Would def. recommend this place to anyone. And yes, I will def. try their lunches (from salads to acai bowls to paninis and beyond).
