Really cute bakery/coffee shop!…read more They had so many varieties of pastries to choose from and a seasonal pumpkin spice latte. We ordered the maple pecan twice baked crossaint, the rosemary potato focaccia, a caramel latte, and a matcha latte. The warmed up our pastries and this was a perfect start to our day! The focaccia is a MUST TRY, get it warmed up! Parking is limited though but worth the effort.

We came around 10:30 AM on a Sunday. I thought at least some of the pastries would be fresh and warm, but everything we ordered was room temp, soggy, and tasted as if they were leftovers from the day before. At other stores, even if the pastries aren't piping hot, we're always asked if we want our food to be warmed up or not, but the guy taking our order didn't bother to ask (or maybe that's not a thing they do here, I don't know). Almond croissant (my go-to order at a bakery) was dense. There was no detectable frangipane inside the croissant, and honestly, the only almond flavor I could taste were the almonds on the outside. The ham and cheese croissant actually had good flavor, and you could tell that the ham was good quality. Since it was lukewarm though, the croissant layers seemingly melded into one sad, chewy layer. We also ordered a coffee and a matcha. Coffee was bitter, so I'm guessing the beans were old. Matcha was fine -- super grassy flavor but not bad. TLDR: paid $50+ for pastries that weren't fresh and weren't good. This whole experience left much to be desired.

We ordered catering from Huckleberry. We got Weiser Farms carrot tzimmes, organic latkes with apple…read moresauce, sweet noodle kugel with gingerbread crumble, oven roasted Scottish salmon, Milo and Olive challah, and whipped apple honey butter. Ordering online was easy. There is a charge for delivery. The time we put for delivery was actually the time that the order was picked up. We were in no hurry so it wasn't an issue but good to know if you are having a meal at a certain time. Everything was packed very well and labeled. There was also instructions for reheating. The challah was so tasty and the apple honey butter was a sweet addition. The latkes were also good. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. We also enjoyed the rich and creamy noodle kugel. It came raw and needed to be cooked before being served. The gingerbread topping was so delicious on top. I love that addition. The salmon had good ingredients and they were very, very generous with the portion size. Although I wish they had added some sliced lemons for flavoring and a sauce to accompany it would have been nice. Loved the dill on top of the fish. However, the salmon was undercooked and very pink in many places. Perhaps if they had cut it up in smaller portions, it would have cooked more evenly. It did make a beautiful presentation but I didn't want to serve it like that. We repurposed it and made salmon cakes so I am not complaining. It did not go to waste. Additionally, the tzimmes needed to be reheated a lot longer than the reheating instructions said in order for the vegetables to be softer. Once I was able to get the cooking time right, the dish was scrumptious. It had sweet potato, orange maple glaze, carrots, and a pecan crunch. Lastly the apple tart tartin was delicious. We heated it up with some vanilla ice cream. Skipping the ice cream and reheating the tartine was not optional here. Ice cream was very much needed to accompany the sweet apples in the dessert and the warmth of the tart was a perfect accompaniment. Just heavenly. Overall, there were a few hiccups but we enjoyed our Huckleberry catering order and are happy we chose them to cater our celebratory meal. You can tell the ingredients are quality and the food is made with love.

It turned out that they had completely missed my order, yet no one even bothered to apologize. When the food finally arrived, the seasoning was off, and the flavors were poorly balanced. The food quality was just as disappointing as the service. Waiting 25 minutes for a forgotten order with no apology or acknowledgment is simply unacceptable. Overall, one of the worst dining experiences I've had. I would not recommend this place.

=== Charming, friendly, great coffee, decent pastry ===…read more ++ SUPER cute environment inside. Not too big, not too small. Students studying inside, some non-students just hanging out. + Love that they stay open relatively late. Boba shops? Plenty. Cafes? Not so much. + Woman behind the counter seemed like a student. It was 20 minutes to closing. She could have copped an attitude but didn't. Helped me out with pastries and a mocha. Appreciated her being nice. ++ Mocha was awesome. Perfect for walking back to UCLA at 9:30 pm. + Cranberry biscotti was decent. Didn't quite have the snap that I'm used to but I'm also not a biscotti expert. - Only negative was the apple strudel. It definitely had that "cheap apple filling" taste to it. That was unfortunate. On a night of many eats, even yours (cheap-ass) truly left that one un-demolished. But everything else was so good, had to give them 5 stars. They earn it on interior cuteness alone.

Inside is not very large and the tables are pretty close together, so it would not be suited for large groups. Service was very fast so if you were in a rush, this is the sort of place to stop, but also many were sitting in and working so you don't have to rush out if you don't want to. The server behind the counter was polite and everything that we ordered came out fairly fast. Parking in this area can be a bit of a pain. The best option will be metered street parking or one of the plots. For this visit, I chose the Croque Monsieur and enjoyed it. I opted for the turkey instead of the ham and thought it was a nice change. I would like them to use more beschemel sauce and toasted the meat or bread a bit more but still, it was enjoyable. I would suggest adding avocado as well. Overall, a quick inconvenient option in Westwood.

Since it's close to home, we sometimes come here when we're not sure what to have for breakfast. This time we got the shishito peppers, egg burrito, and sautéed vegetables. Everything was pretty light and healthy. The veggies were a little too light for my taste though -- they honestly didn't have much flavor A dipping sauce on the side would've made them so much better. But if you're looking for a healthy, clean breakfast, this place is definitely a good option!

When I arrived, it took a while to find the place. I asked about the pour over only to realize that the PO wasn't my favorite. Not a big deal, it had a good nose. Josh immediately offered to re-do with his favorite, a Costa Rican blend at no charge. It was a good decision to let him swap. The pour over was perfect with a great nose and rich, developed flavors, and a slightly sour aftertaste that I like from anaerobic coffee beans. They use v60 for their pour overs and don't rush the process. The coffee selection rotates and you can tell they curate well. They typically buy blends from Lightwave coffee, a specialty local LA roaster. Would love it if they could source some single origins. The chai latte on the other hand wasn't our favorite. It lacked a punch and was a little sweet (probably the non-dairy milk since the brew is technically supposed to be unsweetened). We also picked up a protein salad that looked fresh. Location: This shop can be hard to find, it's at the back of a commercial office building, and requires a short walk to locate the garden area. Parking on street is metered. Tip: Park in the garage, and get 3 hours free validation.

If the service were a little more attentive, I'd easily give them 4 stars. The menu is printed in what feels like font size 4. It's so long that opening it is like unfolding a newspaper. It's a commitment. You're not making it to the end of that menu. And with 40+ items, you have to wonder how every dish could possibly stay fresh. Also, we were not a fan of the greasy mac and cheese. That said, the good outweighs the bad, and we will return--sticking to the breakfast items.
