October has officially entered the building. Things are getting a little darker, a little stranger, and a lot more fun at and about Paper or Plastik. The coffee is still doing what it’s supposed to do, but the atmosphere? That’s starting to change. 👻☕️

Come by, grab your usual, and keep an eye out for what’s creeping into the café this month. Halloween season is here, and we’re leaning into it. 🍁

What people say

Paper or Plastik Cafe is a must-visit destination for coffee lovers and foodies alike. With a variety of house blends including PoP, Unity, and Cova Coffee, you're sure to find the perfect cup of joe to start your day. But that's not all - their beer and wine program is also top-notch, featuring locally sourced craft beers and unique wines.

Their made-in-house menu is equally impressive, with pastries, breakfast items, sandwiches, salads, and daily market specials that include grains, vegetables, flatbread, and cakes. And if you're looking for something more substantial in the evening hours, their tapas bar is not to be missed. Plus, they're in the process of launching a dinner program that will feature a small and seasonal market-driven menu with an affordable 3-course prix fixe.

What sets Paper or Plastik Cafe apart from other cafes is their commitment to sourcing high-quality produce and dairy from local farms such as Coleman Farms, Windrose Farms, Rutiz Farms, Tamai Farms, Kenter Canyon Farms, Scarborough Farms, Straus Family Creamery, Mud Creek Ranch, Chino Family Farms, 2 Peas in a Pod Farm, and Weiser Family Farms.

Located on W Pico Boulevard in Los Angeles, Paper or Plastik Cafe is truly a neighborhood gem that should not be missed.
