Joe's Sandwich with tempeh bacon and lemongrass tea at Kitchen Mouse in northeast LA
Kitchen Mouse, 4503 N Figueroa St., Los Angeles (Montecito Heights), CA 90065
Kitchen Mouse has expanded again, with a cute walk-up coffee & bakery spot in Montecito Heights (near Mount Washington and south Highland Park). There is a small kitchen, so you can also order off a limited menu: vegan breakfast sandwich, vegan waffles, bagel sandwiches, and fancy toasts. The pastry case had two shelves of gluten-free pastries (muffins, brownies, cookies, scones, cakes) and two shelves of pastries with gluten (vegan bagels, vegan croissants, danish). There’s also drip coffee, cold brew, espresso drinks, tea, and hot chocolate.
Order at the window and pay first. Prices are on the higher side but they do make their own pastries and their own schmears, and offer lots of gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan, and even nut-free options.
Buckwheat waffle, vegan, gluten-free ($9) with Earl Grey whip ($1.50): A thick, Belgian style waffle with vegan butter and real maple syrup. Excellent – I didn’t miss the gluten. The buckwheat waffle (made with buckwheat, oat, corn flour and flax, maple & coconut oil) has a nutty flavor and the waffle was moist with crisp edges. They provided plenty of vegan Earl Grey whip which did taste like Earl Grey and wasn’t too sweet. The waffle took about 15 minutes and they weren’t busy.
Cappuccino ($5): No foam art, strong and very bitter, wouldn’t get again
This is meant to be a takeout spot though there are three outdoor picnic tables (shared with Taco Fiesta?). They also sell some KM merch and coffee beans. They have their own coffee roast (Ethiopian). Parking was easy to find in the strip mall.

I’ve got myself a kitchen mouse! He lives under the dishwasher and darts by in the corner of your eye, making you question your sanity

Kitchen Mouse, one of my favorite restaurants in LA. All vegetarian with gluten free, dairy free, and vegan options.

Kitchen Mouse
I made my third trek to Los Angeles of the year because my vegan butcher friends from Scotland were there on holiday. Hilary and Alberto founded Sgaia’s Vegan Meats and I’ve been drooling over their food via the internet for the past couple years, so I couldn’t pass up the chance to meet them. Our meal at Kitchen Mouseis pictured above, and I enjoyed the Breakfast Tacos with tofu,…
