Brunch · Los Feliz, Los Angeles

Alcove Cafe & Bakery

$$ · ModerateLeashed only

A Los Feliz brunch institution set in two historic bungalows (1916 and 1897) with a sprawling leafy garden patio where leashed dogs are welcome at outdoor tables. Water bowls are provided on the patio and the all-day menu covers breakfast, brunch and dinner with a famous bakery case.

Why it made the list

One of LA's best garden patios for weekend brunch with your dog, shaded by mature trees.

Good to know before you go

Dogs are allowed on the outdoor garden patio only, with water bowls stationed throughout; indoor seating is for humans. Weekend brunch draws 20–45 minute waits, so dogs should be comfortable around crowds.

Practical notes

  • Arrive at opening (8 a.m. weekends) or weekday mornings to skip the wait with your pup.
  • Grab pastries or house-made chocolate at the counter while you wait for a patio table.

An independent pet food and supply store in Hollywood, trading since 2003, and far more than a shop. Alongside the retail floor there are self-serve wash bays, a grooming salon next door, daycare and overnight boarding, its own indoor and outdoor dog runs, and free same-day local delivery.
