    The fun decor: egg yolk yellow and graffiti.
    Evan W.

    Decided to stop into Muffin Can Stop Us for a little breakfast at lunchtime. As others have noted, the parking lot is a touch tricky, with most of the spots reserved for other businesses; so you have to juggle between what's left in the lot and what's available on the street. Not a big deal at this time of day, but could be difficult at high-volume times. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place itself is a fun and funky spot, with a bold yellow decor evoking egg yolk "distressed" by artsy graffiti, and homey, antique shop-looking tables and couches (though tables outside are of a more uniform, weather resistant type).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Despite the homey touches in the design, the menu itself could be described as marginally elevated fast food devoid of any home-cooked touches. A selection of egg sandwiches served on English muffins, some actual muffins of the blueberry type, and some blended drinks and coffees, etc. Nothing all that inventive or interesting, and certainly not reaching the creativity or execution of EggSlut. I opted for the traditional American Sandwich with bacon, egg and cheddar, but without aioli, as I'm not keen to put mayo on my egg sandwiches. I also ordered a side of hash browns and a Diet Coke. Once delivered, the sandwich in reality was even less exciting than its description. Rather than the sunny side up egg prominently displayed in all the photos, the sandwich was delivered with an egg over hard, ergo there was no yolk to add creaminess or flavor to the sandwich. Bacon and cheese were standard issue with no specific taste to distinguish them from what any teen might make at home. The jumbo-sized Thomas' English Muffin is appreciated, but was served under-cooked and doughy. Likewise, the hash brown patty was of the generic commercial type, and came lukewarm without much crisp. Given how dry and bland it all was, I decided to try a dab of the mayo-looking sauce that was included in an unmarked plastic packet -- indeed, it was a slightly spicy, very artificial-tasting commercial mayo that actually made the bite worse. So, while the concept is a fun one, the look of the place amusing, and the staff quite friendly, the bland, haphazardly prepared food really is a disappointment, and I see no reason to return.

    I saw that Muffin Can Stop Me's rating went down a little, and I honestly wanted to leave a review because this place deserves some love. This has been one of my favorite breakfast spots in LA for a long time. I've ordered from here so many times, especially on those days when I need something quick, delicious, filling, and reasonably priced. And they have never disappointed me. The quality has always been good, my orders always arrive fresh, and everything tastes exactly the way I expect and in time! This is the reason I keep coming back. And I have to give a special shoutout to their hash browns: honestly, one of my favorite hash browns in LA. Perfectly crispy, not greasy, and always cooked just right. This is definitely one of my go-to breakfast places, and I'll happily keep supporting them.

    A lazy Sunday morning adrift in the sea of hunger and once again my nose leads me to another contender of a great breakfast on a beautiful day. I opted to have a refreshing peach infused ice tea that was a pleasant passenger to the Sausage Redemption I ordered which came in a handy paper holder that kept my hands clean! Flavor profile wise, the aioli brightened up the flavors of the sausage and the egg, and made me audibly MMMM in joy. I can't under praise the hashbrowns, as they were the right amount of salty and weren't heavy and super oily. The staff had the brightest smiles on their faces and genuinely seemed to enjoy have conversations with their customers as we ate our food. Something about humans connecting always makes my food taste better, that's for sure. We didn't break the bank either, since I definitely got my money's worth. I have a whole menu on my try list now! Cheers!

    I was looking forward to some waffles and an egg sandwich this morning. My friend and I ordered Muffin Can Stop Us via postmates this morning and were utterly shocked at the waffles that came in. The waffles had 2 black and furry looking mold on them. I'm at a loss of words to be honest because I was expecting better and was given good reviews about this spot. I can't speak on the service and ambiance since wasn't physically at their location but I hope they work in their quality control. On a brighter note, the egg was fresh and tasty.

    Decent muffin shop, the muffin sandwich was made fast and employees are friendly. Sausage redemption 3/5. Solid sausage muffin that has cheese and sausage. For the price of $9 it is a bit steep. McDonald's is definitely better for price and taste.

    I like the service at this place a lot. And the food, naturally. [[HIGHLIGHT]]But for some reason they keep it weirdly warm inside. Like it was a p warm day when I was in there last and it was still hotter inside than out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Sometimes owners skip on ac in a misguided attempt to save money, which is a bad call for workers, guests, and general vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Plus it seems like there's no management. Staff was working hard, but no one doing expo work or just overseeing the whole flow of operations. Nixing management positions is another weird thing owners do to save on operation costs. Hoping they're doing ok. Would be a shame to lose a favorite local breakfast spot. Staff definitely deserves better.

    A good spot for a grab-and-go breakfast as it is reasonably priced, with quick service and made to order items. However, there are no restrooms at this location which makes it inconvenient if you like to wash your hands before eating. The indoor space has loud music and a bold yellow and black color scheme. Outdoor seating includes benches and bar style tables with umbrellas. While muffins are the namesake here, they're not the only option. The menu also includes waffles, parfaits, oatmeal and hash browns. An interesting variety of coffee, tea and lemonade complements the breakfast offerings. That said, the Americanos we ordered were disappointing: cold, weak and ultimately tossed after one sip. We tried the bacon and sausage muffins, and both were delicious. They reminded us of a more upscale version of a McDonald's breakfast sandwich but slightly larger and better quality. I'm torn if I would go back only because my morning coffee is just as important as the meal.

    Super friendly & quick service Also the inside is super cool & trendy. They also have space to sit outdoors which is super cute too. I got their Redemption sandwich w/ chicken sausage & it was 10/10. I took off the top bun & used a hash brown instead & it was delicious. My fiance got the bacon cheddar sandwich & added avocado & that was good too Definitely recommend if you're craving a good breakfast sandwich !

    I love it! The service was so amazing. Each of the sandwiches were so good, and the coffee drinks were amazing too. Highly recommend the horchata because they use a cinnamon agave that you can really taste the flavor. Definitely will come back here when I'm in the area again. 'Muff said.

    Quick service at 9 am in the morning, designated parking lot with limited space. Not crowded. Friendly staff. Indoor and our door seating. Order: yogurt with granola, straw and blue berries, and almonds. Honey packets togo. Yum! I got the blast muffin with no aioli sauce: B: acon L: ettuce A: vocado S: pinach T: omato

    Literally the best breakfast spot I've been to. And the coffee is 10/10 too. All the staff is so lovely and kind !!! Love it here

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]cute place but disappointing food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Everything was gummy. I ordered a muffin egg cheese, bacon sandwich. The muffin was gummy. The egg was overcooked and super rubbery. There was one slice of bacon and the cheese had melted out into the bottom of the box that the sandwich came in. They have lots of different muffin sandwiches. next time, I would definitely ask for the muffin to be toasted. The people were very nice. I asked if they refill coffee and they said no, but the gentleman behind the counter offered to give me more coffee. I passed -- the coffee was not good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have inside and outside seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Parking can be a big challenge!!!

    Great catchy name, had to stop in, and try the food. I did not realize all the great sandwiches that were offered. I ordered a cup of Joe, and the banana-nut muffin. The Salmon sandwich really looked good and I will try that next time. Its graffiti decor is cool and the disco funk music playing gave it a hip vibe. The service was great. The energy was good and friendly, perfect for a morning. The food was delivered within 5 minutes or so, the coffee was tasty. I do not add anything to my coffee so the taste is key. Plenty of parking, at least at 930 am Like me if you drive by and see the sign, you have to take the opportunity and stop , and enjoy a cup and a muffin, or a coffee drink or a sandwich, cause it's more than just muffins. And its really Good

    What's security like at this restaurant?

    It's more of a take out spot, not sure what security would be needed for.. the area is pretty safe and they have cameras.

    Gluten Free options?

    Hello Jordan, thank you so much for inquiring Through our yelp page. Actually we have options to make your sandwiches with hash brown patties which are in fact Gluten free.

    Do you cater?

    Hi Tanya, thank you for inquiring directly with us. Yes we do and it is best when we plan ahead.… 

    Is this location officially open? No photo number listed and when I drove there to order during the business hours, the doors were locked.

Twinty was open and located next to the Rachel and Rose bridal shop, where I purchased my summertime wedding dress, last year. They had exactly what I was searching for and a cozy, and very thoughtful neighborhood brunch spot. The service was super amicable and it's easily accessible, a short walk away. Also, since I started my micro-dose GlP1 journey to shed 15lbs. The tummy is super sensitive to high sugar, saturated fats, and unhealthy foodies.

The interior was very clean with exposed brick and lots of earth tones. Ordering our food and drinks we saw that the work area was clean and organized.

Great place to people watch.

In addition to their expertly-crafted pastries, Sweet Lily offers a great variety of French dishes and packaged food items. My group ordered the Sugar Beignet, Raspberry Croissant, and Coffee Croissant - which were all wonderful. The Raspberry Croissant had a not-too-sour fresh jelly filling and was definitely the crowd favorite, but the thick, latte-flavored filling in the Coffee Croissant made it a close second place. The fresh-squeezed orange juice at $5 felt like an absolute bargain, and the Cappuccino was also well-executed. The real stars of the show were the entrees, though. Both the Avocado Toast plate and Croque Monsieur truly tasted like a trip to France. They were hearty and full of flavor, without feeling too heavy. The Sweet Lily twist on Avocado Toast includes melted mozzarella and slices grapes, which really elevated the dish! The potatoes and salads that came as complimentary sides were a welcome surprise, and just as craveable as the entrees themselves. I truly don't think there's a bad thing to order here, and I look forward to returning to this bright and welcoming spot to try more!

Near Barham and on the way to Hollywood. They have a few metered parking spots out front, but I went in and asked if they had their own parking and Mehdi told me they had a couple of spots in the alley behind the building, so that's where we parked. It's a cute place, not too fancy. They refer to it as a Boutique Pastry Shop. There are some snacks/knick knacks available for purchase, along with a refrigerator of drinks towards the back. The left side of the space is the coffee bar and the right side has the pastry cases and food menus. This is where we placed our order with Mehdi, who was pleasant, nice and knowledgeable about the menu and all the pastry items. I was talking to another employee, Gabriel, and asking him questions about the omelettes. He talked me through a few different options and he was also pleasant and kind. I decided on the Veggie Omelette (add mozzarella +$2, and side baguette +$1) with a Decaf Latte (+$0.75 for Oat Milk). My son ordered the Chicken Caprese Panini, which came with Pesto and Mozzarella Cheese. ($17). We also wanted to sample some pastries and we got 1 Nutella Beignet ($5.50), 1 Caribbean & 1 Red Carpet ($8 each), 1 Pear/Almond Tart and 1 Raspberry Tart ($6.50 each). Our total for everything including tip was $91.59, and I'm still kind of in shock over it! This place was SO EXPENSIVE!! Mehdi plated our pastries for us and Gabriel immediately got to work on the omelette and panini. We sat down at one of their many tables and got situated while we waited for the food. It was pretty empty as we were there around 3pm, an hour before they closed. There were two other tables being occupied while we were there. They had nice pop music playing, ranging from 90s-00s songs and artists. There were some nice twinkly lights above us along with the regular lighting of the restaurant. The space was also very clean, but I noticed some wear and tear on the tables/chairs. Once Mehdi brought our food out, we got to eating. My omelette also came with a small side salad with balsamic vinaigrette and some potatoes. I think everything tasted good, especially the omelette, but the potatoes were a bit too greasy for my taste. I also think the portion size was too small for the price. This statement goes for everything we ordered. It was all extremely overpriced for the portions they're offering. My son said his panini was just mediocre and bland. He opened it and added a bunch of salt to it. It was also very skimpy on the chicken, about 4-5 tiny slices inside. Moving onto the pastries, the Pear/Almond was my favorite. It wasn't overly sweet (actually, none of the pastries were), which is what I prefer. It was very delicate and tasty. I also had a bite of the Caribbean which was delicious. They went well with my latte, which tasted very good. I will be trying the rest later. My son had a bite of everything and liked the Caribbean and the Nutella Beignet, saying the rest were just average. I didn't use the restroom but my son did and said it was spotless clean, stocked with toilet paper, paper towels, soap, and room spray. The trash was empty, floors and counters were clean. They have one men's and one women's restroom and it's spacious. They began closing down the place about 5 minutes after we finished our bites and nibbling. Overall, it wasn't a bad experience by any means, but I don't think I'll be rushing here anytime soon to try it again. It was just outrageously expensive for what it was. I understand the cost of ingredients, labor, etc it takes to produce pastries and viennoiserie, but I just don't think the quality matched the prices. Just my opinion. I would say the service was great, both Gabriel and Mehdi are great employees! I may or may not come back. We'll see.

I even went as recently as last year and they were amazing. However... My girlfriend and I came back recently, and it was a huge letdown. The fries were soft, undercooked, and so salty that all I could taste was salt. My girlfriend said it was like a grandmother made them at home. Looking at my old Yelp photos compared to what we got now, they are not the same fries. We each ate maybe 10 fries before giving up and leaving to get curly fries from a late night fast food place instead. The ranch also tasted like Italian vinaigrette dressing and not ranch at all. The girls working are always super friendly and sweet, but the guy manager was cold and honestly rude. We also waited forever just to place our order. Like easily 6 minutes in silence standing at the counter being the only ones there. I really hope they can turn things around because the old Crave had some of the best fries in Studio City and I would often show up with 5-10 people at night for the pizza fries and / or the basic fries alone. This visit was incredibly disappointing. Also the forks were so heavy and huge my gf had to stop using it because it was so cumbersome and heavy
