Bliss Art House Cafe

CBS Los Angeles hailed Bliss Art House Cafe as “a local artist mecca” when it placed the cozy eatery on its list of the Best Open Mic Venues in Los Angeles. A sense of teeming creativity is readily apparent as soon as patrons enter the eclectic space, which features vibrant paintings jockeying for attention on the black and red walls, well-worn carved wooden furniture, and soft lighting from a vintage chandelier and wall sconces. As guests chat, sketch, and write indoors or at a few sidewalk tables, a bistro-style menu keeps them energized with sandwiches, sizzling paninis, and crepes stuffed with everything from bananas and Nutella to turkey, avocado, and pesto. Coffee drinks and frosty smoothies wash it all down, along with blends of beet, ginger, orange, and creative juices.
