Cafe de Leche Altadena was destroyed in the Eaton Fire. While the Highland Park location remains open, the family behind Cafe de Leche has started a GoFundMe to support the Altadena location’s indefinitely out-of-work employees. To keep updated on the status of rebuilding efforts, follow Cafe de Leche on Instagram.
This pint-sized outpost of the Highland Park cafe sits up the Arroyo, just across the Altadena border. The blue-toned shop is simply adorable, with a living room-like setup inside and a couple of tables and chairs outside. More importantly, the menu lives up to the looks, with Rockenwagner pastries and bagels, Stumptown coffee and their signature creamy horchata con espresso.
