Cafe Grano Los Angeles

Culturally Delicious

Val from Los Angeles

About: Hi! I'm Val Douroux, Hollywood Location Scout/Manager & Ambassador of West Hollywood. I'm alive to have a good time. I love to absorb the sunshine at a nice beach, work on a film set and dance to the music on a rooftop lounge. I love God, nature, humans, and a good adventure. Good food. Good vibes. Good energy.

"Cafe Grano in Burbank blends cozy vibes, brain-fueling smoothies, and creative buzz — perfect for working, chilling, and soaking in the local film culture."

I've been making a list of good places to cafe, drink a delicious drink, and work off a laptop. One nice place I found is Cafe Grano. On the corner of Burbank’s 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 in Hollywood, and this lends itself to a free corporate creative culture. Here is where the everyday Works lives.

I'm impressed with the variety! Not only do they have the typical coffee and teas, they also have pastries, gelato and healthy food too. There are smoothies, wellness shots, and delicious paninis. Mouth watering. They are also the freshest, fluffiest pastries I’ve ever seen. Jaw drop! I ordered the Green serenity smoothie, and my brain instantly went fully. The taste and feeling here is so good. 

Cafe Grano is a cozy place to hang. There’s indoor/outdoor seating with a great ambiance for gathering. There are people talking about film scripts, comedy productions, and conversations across multiple languages. The playlist is upbeat, but not too cliche,  with golden songs from the 70s – 90s and an all around good vibe.

I like Cafe Grano. It’s a great place to grab delicious food, meet with a friend or work off a laptop and people watch.
