"Doubting Thomas in Historic Filipinotown is a coffee shop with a poorly kept secret: The Doubtless Burrito. Each one comes stuffed with crispy braised pork shoulder, smoked white cheddar, smashed Yukon potatoes, tomatillo salsa, smoked chili, and runny sunny-side-up eggs. If it sounds like too much of a good thing, you’re wrong. It’s the exact right amount of good things." - sylvio martins, garrett snyder
"This sunny Historic Filipinotown cafe is one of our favorite places to work. You'll find mismatched wooden furniture ripped from a quirky indie film, a spacious sidewalk patio, and excellent coffee. Plus, they serve fresh pastries (get the morning bun, it comes with seasonal jams and sprinkled sugar) and a pork shoulder breakfast burrito that's saved us from the brink dozens of times." - brant cox, sylvio martins, cathy park
"There’s a lot we love about this sunny Historic Filipinotown café, namely their excellent pork shoulder breakfast burrito, flaky pastries topped with fruit that change with the seasons, and a kale salad that has saved our lives more than a few times. But it’s also one of our favorite places to work – they have a beautiful sidewalk patio on Temple St., perfect for firing off emails or opening Final Draft and pretending to type." - kat hong
"One of our favorite Historic Filipino coffee shops (and home to a particularly excellent breakfast burrito) has transformed their Temple St. sidewalk space into a socially distanced patio. Perfect for sipping oat milk cappuccinos, snacking on excellent pastries, and browsing Twitter while pretending to read." - kat hong
"Throw a succulent anywhere in Los Angeles and you’ll probably hit a coffee shop with good food. Doubting Thomas is one of the newer options, but this quiet spot in Historic Filipinotown is doing more than just fancy toast and poached eggs. They also make excellent breakfast burritos, biscuit sandwiches, and pastries - plus, they have a great side patio where you can eat all of those things." - brant cox, brett keating
