Your neighbourhood coffee haven. Bring your little ones, the day's paper or a good book to this little spot where your guaranteed to get a killer cup of coffee. 

We hands down adore a natural wine spot and the Tabula Rasa Bar is no exception. With 20 wines by the glass, or 200 by the bottle and a food menu which rotates from small plates to pizza pop-ups (by none other than our favourite boy blue). Need we say more?

Barnsdall Art Park is perhaps the cultural heart of Los Angeles. Home to the first modern architectural building listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, LAMAG, a theatre, and an abundance of green space: you can easily spend a whole day at this spot. You can even book in for a wine tasting come the summer. 

Renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright masterminded Hollyhock House in 1921 for oil heiress Aline Barnsdall – his first LA commission and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Named for Barnsdall’s favourite flower, whose abstract form appears throughout the design, the house sits atop a gentle hill in Barnsdall Park with wide views over Hollywood. Guided tours run regularly; booking ahead is recommended.
