Mangiacake Panini Shoppe

It's a bit pricey to "do lunch" here often, but with luxe offerings like prosciutto cotto and pesto aioli on ciabatta on hand, you'd better believe it's worth it (the Topogigio - brie and mozzarella with sundried tomatoes - is pictured here). Service is friendly and attentive, good place to lunch if you can take your time heading back to the office. Go now, before the AGO finishes building the sneezeguard.

this cute little Baldwin Village shop has great authentic Italian sandwiches - try the signature Mangiacake: smoked turkey, provolone and pipotto sauce on calabrese. Or the Tonna: marinated artichokes, tuna, and lemon aioli on tomato ciabatta. And there are plenty of other delicious options besides. Choose your sides from a selection of fresh salads and daily antipasto selections.

this is one quality espresso big sister people. Prepared with skill and served up by friendly counterfolk. Plus - anything you get to go with your coffee is delicious. And so is a browse at the clothing boutique upstairs.
