Alex & Mindy
Things To Do
Tactile Coffee
Our favourite coffee shop! Owned by our friends, Mike and Eric, this is the place where we first talked, have had countless coffee dates, and it's the place where Alex proposed! In addition to coffee/tea, they make biscuits, bread, and avo toast in house. Mindy's drink: any of the seasonal pour-overs. Alex's drink: oat cappuccino. Tell them Alex and Mindy sent you!
Venice Canals
We had one of our first dates here and got a little lost looking for a coffee shop. Needless to say, we enjoyed the extra time together walking around Venice. If you can find it, visit Menotti's - the coffee shop that we eventually found!
HiFi Kitchen
A favourite in the neighborhood! Filipino comfort food in a shop that looks straight out of the 90's.
In Sheep's Clothing
Probably our favourite bar in LA. Entrance is in the back of a pizza place. All vinyl soundtrack and an extensive whiskey and sake menu. They also serve great coffee.
Gracie's Pizza
Our favourite pizza in the neighbourhood!
Silverlake Ramen
Our go-to place for a warm, delicious bowl of ramen. Join the guest-list using Yelp to save some time waiting in line!
Griffith Observatory
Beautiful views of the city + some very cool exhibits. It's completely free and worth the trip if you have never been before.
The Last Bookstore
We love books and bookstores! This is probably the biggest, most unique bookstore in LA. The second floor has tunnels made out of books and the used book section is arranged by colour! Definitely worth stopping by for an hour.... or four.
