"Out of all the LA bakeries that have wholesale accounts, Friends Family is easily my favorite. Their croissants are so crunchy and hold a terrific form that immediately catch my eyes from those pastry boxes. Friends Family has a wide selection of pastries. Besides the normal croissant variations, there are also pistachio almond croissant, sweet and savory danishes, cakes, muffins and cookies. You can also get fresh baguettes and bread loaves. The cafe has plenty of seats, and a full day time menu. I went there for lunch with a friend and had the beef short rib hash (two eggs, braised beef, yukon potato pickled chili salsa verde) and wow it was palatable and got amazing value for basically the price of a toast in those fancy, over hyped coffee shops. That's what I really like about Friends Family: it's pretty much a hidden gem, a down-to-earth neighborhood bakery cafe, although I think it's worth being recognized by a lot more people."
