In the quiet Northeast Los Angeles, CA neighborhood of Eagle Rock, there is an acknowledged area known as the center; many restaurants and trendy boutiques reside in this area which stretches along the streets Colorado Boulevard and Eagle Rock Boulevard. However, nestled in a more residential part of Eagle Rock at 4808 Townsend Ave is a relatively young business which is not afraid to compete with the establishments in the more popular spots: The Eagle’s Landing Coffee House. This coffee shop, affectionately known as simply ‘The Eagle’s Landing,’ is a small cozy hang out spot catered towards the younger residents of Eagle Rock. In fact, half the proceeds go towards the local teen center which shares the same building. At ‘The Eagle’s Landing’ one can expect requisite drinks and pastries such as ice blended mocha and blueberry coffee cake. There are also fresh fruit smoothies and simpler items such as bean and cheese burritos and ice cream. There’s a wide variety of snacks and quick fixes to cater to the high school students mere blocks away studying at Eagle Rock High School and the slightly further Occidental College students. It’s a warm welcome and an unchained coffee shop, truly a gem in this day and age. Due to its unique location, though it is mainly for youngsters, the hours allows a cross section of locals depending on the time of day; from kids rushing to school picking up a snack, to more established community members between 9AM and 12PM getting their regulars, to the ins and outs of everyone in between. Eagle’s Landing is really a nice place for the local community. Find more places in your community with globalYP.net, yellow pages that are online.
