It is already difficult to open a restaurant in the best of times. However, co-owners Joana and Seleste successfully opened the vegan cafe, Little Barn Coffee House, right in the middle of the COVID-19 Pandemic. This adorable shop is nestled next to a quiet residential neighborhood.

The biscuit they make for the Vegan Sausage Breakfast Sandwich is worth coming back for alone! Buttery, soft, scrumptiousness!
My favorite thing we ordered on this visit was the Vegan Chicken Sandwich with green pesto. The artisanal bread was hardy, but not too heavy. This sandwich has the perfect amount of kale for a nice crunch and vegan cheese to enhance the flavor. It is definitely the best vegan sandwich I’ve ever had!I’m looking forward to going back and trying more of their selection.
They are very friendly and have great customer service.For PRIDE month and throughout the year, support this lady Latinx/2SLGBTQ+ owned business!
In honor of Juneteenth 2024, we decided to highlight an African American owned business in Los Angeles. When I say we were not prepared for such a great find – I mean it!
Wow! That’s what we have to say about the vegan cheeseburger at Vurger Guyz. It is amazing! The soft bun, carmalized onions, melted vegan cheese, pickles, and nicely chard patty all mix so well together. You can add yummy seasoned fries or sweet potato fries on the side. I usually get their lemonade soda pop for a refreshment with the scrumptious meal. Yes – I have already gone back TWICE! They also have a great cream soda option.

Mr. V, the owner, is super friendly. He has brought the positive small community energy of Brooklyn right to the streets of L.A.
Everyone I’ve seen leaves the truck full and satisfied!
Parking tip for their regular location next to Whole Foods:
For one free hour of parking, park in the parking garage under Whole Foods – get something small at Whole Foods for parking validation and walk to their back balcony. You can see and walk to the Vurger Guyz Food Truck from the back balcony.
