South LA Cafe

This family-owned shop is on a mission to build community through coffee, culture, and connection. Husband and wife duo, Celia and Joe Ward-Wallace, have returned to the neighborhood they grew up in to focus on offering fresh, affordable, and healthy food options in the area. In addition to hot and cold drinks, South LA Cafe also serves quick bites like croissants, muffins, and coffee cakes, as well as a monthly grocery box filled with produce, dry goods, and dairy—which you can either buy for yourself, or for a neighbor in need by becoming a sponsor.
