Founded in a backyard by Alexander Phaneuf (who’s since left the company) and Or Amsalam, this once-humble bakery pop-up focused on naturally leavened breads has grown into a best-in-class breakfast destination in its own right. The same detail-oriented baking process goes into Lodge Bread's excellent coffee cake and other pastries, as well as toasts and sandwiches, and the tea and coffee are top-notch as well. Indulge in their humongous cinnamon rolls slathered with cream cheese icing, or opt for the toast topped with ricotta and jam or cinnamon sugar; for those who prefer savory over sweet, the luscious eggplant hummus with the Jerusalem bagel or a warm piece of pita will more than satisfy. At their counters in Culver City, Beverly Hills and Woodland Hills, you’ll also find pastries like cinnamon rolls, coffee cake and cookies, along with a rotating selection of loaves that might include seeded country, whole wheat, spelt and red quinoa wheat. There’s also plenty of outside seating at the Woodland Hills location if you'd like to enjoy your meal right away.
