    Pork Belly Bowl
    Eli M.

    I was in the area at lunch time and stopped by on the recommendation from a friend. I had the pork belly bowl and it was absolutely amazing. My friends had a vegan burrito and a regular burrito and everyone was impressed with their food. Service was quick and the space is beautifully designed.

    Doubtless Burrito
    Jason L.

    I always passed by this place, never knowing how good of a breakfast menu they have! I came here last week with a friend after thinking of what we wanted to eat that morning. Since it was 8:30, I tried my luck and sure enough, I found street parking down the street. The cafe is fairly big with patio seating available as well. I got the doubtless burrito with cold brew and my friend got the pastrami breakfast burrito. Both were out of this world! I can easily say that this place might be up there as one of the better breakfast burritos in LA, maybe even one of the top contenders. Definitely bringing company when I come back next time!

    Passion fruit pie

    Shouldn't have doubted and delayed my visit for so long to this place. Sunny yet breezy LA last weekend was certainly perfect time to get some sun kisses sitting in the outdoor patio in front of the venue. They did have plenty indoor ones and worry not if you saw long line since it moved in a blink. They seemed to be super efficient with the system of having people placing orders before finding seats. Their pastries and cakes were the first ones hooking my attention, and surprise surprise people actually loved their brunch menu especially their burritos. We went for the #1 favorite, the Doubtless Burrito, following the attendant reco for a first timer. Oh my word, tons of shredded pork shoulder stuffed in the burrito with perfectly cooked egg and all the seasonings were on point! The filling portion surely worth the price. Never ever skip their Passion Fruit Pie and do hear everyone's reco about it. The graham cracker crust people were bragging about was indeed dabomb! The slice was such flawless combo of freshly tangy fruit flavor with sweet and slightly salty base. YUMMMM!!

    What an excellent breakfast/brunch spot! I've visited three times, and each time has been positive. The staff are welcoming and nice! My favorite is their Thomas Breakfast. It's a simple breakfast plate with two eggs, a biscuit, some bacon, a small salad, and jam. The salad is well dressed and cuts through the richness of the yolk. The biscuit is buttery and perfect with the jam. I gave my husband the bacon, and he said it was good because it wasn't salty. I enjoy their regular drip of coffee with a side of cream and sugar. It goes perfectly with their Passionfruit Pie! There is indoor and outdoor dining. There is free street parking. I highly recommend!

    Seasonal Cream Top Cold Brew - Fig

    Wait wasn't too bad on a Saturday! Their seasonal cold top is fig/citrus and it was actually pretty good!! Didn't get to try the food but it's super cute near Dollar Hits!

    One of the best cafe/restaurants/bakeries in HiFi. Their passion fruit pie is a must try. The macadamia nut crust has the perfect crunchy buttery bite to it. The pie is slightly tart but not too sweet, and has a hint of condensed milk. Tastes like a dessert you would get in the Philippines. This can be ordered by the slice but whole pie requests are done online. When ordering you have to give them at least 3-4 days notice however I put in a last minute Christmas Eve pick up order (placed on the 23rd) and someone named Ana reached out via text to confirm my order right away. Super friendly. Their breakfast burritos are pretty good too. They used to have a earl grey pastrami burrito that was super tender, juicy, and almost aromatic. Haven't seen it on the menu in a while though. Decent amount of seating inside but parking can be tricky. Super busy during the week.

    Thomas breakfast + Veggie Burrito
    Gearmo C.

    As a foreigner, I hadn't realized how much I missed European-style breakfast restaurants. The atmosphere, menu choices, and even the restaurant layout were far more homey and casual compared to the typical American diner style. The service was inviting and prompt, and the coffee was solid. The food tasted fresh and was beautifully plated. While the overall flavors weren't mind-blowing, there's value in a consistent and casual eats that are easy to come back to! Doubting Thomas will definitely become a staple brunch option in my rotation.

    Been here prob 6 or 7 times for their doubtless breakfast burrito. It's 4 stars. coffee is good. Carrot cake was awesome. Burritos (specifically the way the eggs are cooked) can be inconsistent

    Lovely cafe in Historic Filipinotown. Light seating indoors and out. That said, I wouldn't work from here for more than an hour or two. Don't be that person who sits there for more[1]. Doubting Thomas roasts their own product right in Los Angeles. Got their batch brew and was pleasantly delighted. It was bliss! The kitchen is an *operation*: multiple folks baking, prepping, plating. Between the line of customers waiting for coffee and staff delivering orders and bussing, there is a happy whirlwind of activity. Love the vibe. Besides coffee, they have sweet and savory items. (I'll be back for the latter.) Credit accepted. Bathroom available. Friendly service! [1] This cafe is on at least one "Coffee Shops for Getting Work Done" article. :3

    Danish
    Patrick B.

    It's hard to explain this... but the pastries taste far better than they look. I had the chocolate oat cookie and clementine danish as pictured. They honestly don't look like much and I was kinda doubtful of my choices, but they taste amazing. Truly makes me excited to try other pastries with how good these tasted

    Stopped by Doubting Thomas for brunch and ended up really liking the place. It has that relaxed neighborhood vibe, and it's super close to Dollar Hits (Filipinos know that spot!), so it's easy to swing by before or after. We ordered the Chai ( Muddy? Dirty? forgot) and the Seasonal Cream Top Cold Brew. Both were decent--not amazing, but not bad either. The cold brew cream top was the better one of the two. The desserts were the real highlight. The Passion Fruit Pie was bright, creamy, and had that tart kick that makes passion fruit so good. The graham + macadamia crust was buttery and crunchy without getting soggy, which is rare. The heirloom apple, blackberry & vanilla custard hand pie tasted like a warm, cozy fall dessert. Crispy outside, soft and fruity inside, and not overly sweet. You can tell they really care about their pastries. For food, we tried the Veggie Breakfast Burrito, and honestly it tasted like something you'd get at most breakfast spots..sorry to say..nothing special, but very fresh. The Thomas Burger was the stronger pick. Juicy patty, melty cheese, a soft sesame bun, and the thick-cut fries were super crisp without being greasy. Service was quick, and the cashier had a cheerful, friendly vibe, which always helps start things off right. Overall, solid brunch spot. The pastries are the real reason to come...the passion fruit pie with the graham macadamia crust is absolutely worth stopping for.

    The Corned Beef Hash ... very tasty.  It doesn't come with any bread I recommend a biscuit
    Derek D.

    Doubting Thomas is a neighborhood gem. Staff is friendly . It's a low key vibe. I look forward to coming back and trying other things. My beef hash was served with over easy egg. I ordered a side biscuit. I loved the biscuit so much I got some to go.

    Lunch meeting set now where to have it? Doubting Thomas came up, I did the menu check for decent vegan items. Success meeting location set! I ended up arriving first and scoped the place out. It can be easy to miss the signage is easy to overlook and the facade outside is brutalist simple and unassuming of the fair within. On driving by I would have never known it existed. But that is not holding this place back because it was packed! While I waited for the rest of my party I scoped the baked good and a better look at the menu. I settled on the vegan adobo burrito and golden milk latte with almond milk. The atmosphere is chill interspersed by some greenery, the servers cashiers and staff are polite and wonderful! Excellent balance of service that's patient non intrusive and respectful! The burrito!!! OMFG was delicious! It had flavor spice and everything was NICE! Perfect pieces of vegan adobo spiced goodness in every bite! Well worth the price! The golden milk latte was delightful and I enjoyed every sip! I look forward to going back when I'm in the area!

The standouts were the green beans, the Brussels sprouts that came with the chicken, the pork shank and the tuna and crunchy quinoa salad. I'm still thinking of that crunchy quinoa. We had no room for dessert. So maybe next time we try the goat curry, get the quinoa salad again and get dessert! The service was great too. Attentive but not overbearing. It's a cute restaurant both inside and outside.
