Miss Donuts
7.9
A cash-only, 4 AM donut shop on Robertson that bakes everything in-house daily—apple fritters and glazed donuts move fast for a reason. The format is pure counter service with zero pretense, built for the early-morning crowd that wants warm, freshly made pastry without waiting or overpaying. Bring cash or use the ATM inside; the small back lot usually has a spot.
Must-Try Dishes:
Apple Fritter, Glazed Donut, Cheese Croissant
What Makes it Special: Family-owned, cash-only donut shop open at 4 AM daily with everything baked fresh on-site.
7.6
A counter-service Pico spot combining an Indian sweets shop with a compact curry and chaat lineup, best used for quick bites and takeout. Savory items skew homestyle and vegetarian-friendly, while the sweets and snacks are the main draw for neighborhood regulars. Recent ownership/menu changes make it a more mixed bag, but it remains a useful budget stop for chaat and mithai.
Must-Try Dishes:
Samosa chaat, Chole bhature, Jalebi or assorted mithai
What Makes it Special: Indian sweets and chaat in a fast, counter-service format.
