Follow the floral print to the Flower Coffee Collective, a revamped vintage camper that’s doling out piping hot cups of gourmet coffee. This spot recently opened next to El Gavilan on Flower Avenue, and it shares a covered patio with the eatery—it’s a perfect place to enjoy your cup of joe on a sunny fall morning.
Depending on how warm the day is, you might want to go for Flower Coffee’s popular cold-brew. But you’re always invited to warm up with a drip coffee, a specialty espresso beverage, or even a cup of hot chocolate, as well. Flower Coffee offers dairy-free milk alternatives at a mere 15-cent upcharge, so customers with dietary restrictions can still enjoy their chosen beverages. The spot also sells gluten-free pastries from a nearby bakery, including vegan and traditional muffins, scones, and even gooey cinnamon rolls. The selection of typical pastries changes on a daily basis, but always includes options such as croissants, turnovers, and even lavender cookies. If you’re craving something savory for breakfast, stop in on Friday or Saturday morning for a mushroom or spinach and cheese pastry.
