I was looking for a nourishing place to eat and work off a laptop and found Cafe Grano. On the corner of Burbank’s bustling downtown district, it’s a melting pot of high-quality food and culture. Not a lot of people know this, but there are more film studios in Burbank than Hollywood, and this lends itself to a free - corporate creative culture. Here is where the everyday Works lives.
I am impressed with their variety. Not only do they have the typical coffee and tea options, they have pastries, gelato and healthy options too. There are smoothies, wellness shots and the most delicious paninis I’ve ever seen. Jaw drop. Mouth watering. They have the freshest, fluffiest pastries I’ve ever seen. I ordered the Green serenity smoothie, and it’s everything delicious that my brain needs. Taste and feeling.
Cafe Grano is a cool/cozy place to hang. There’s space to sit inside and outside with a great ambiance for gathering. There are people talking about film scripts, comedy productions, and conversations across multiple languages. The playlist is uplifting with golden songs from the 70s - 90s.
I like Cafe Grano. It’s great to work. It’s great to chill and it’s great to nourish your heart and body.
