Nestled in Downtown's Flower District, Poppy + Rose is the go-to casual café for vibrant brunch favorites like chicken and waffles and hearty pulled pork hash.
"Grab a seat at Downtown brunch icon Poppy + Rose for crowd-pleasing favorites like a buttermilk fried chicken and waffle, steak breakfast burrito, and soul-warming biscuits and gravy plate. It’s walk-in only and can get quite busy, but fans with mid-week availability can also sneak in for a daytime meal as well, since brunch runs every day here." - Eater Staff

"Poppy + Rose tends to get somewhat lost in the DTLA brunch shuffle, but make no doubt about it - this place needs to be a permanent fixture on your go-to list. The casual downtown cafe is serving the kind of simple, no-frills breakfast you simply don’t find a lot of in LA. Everything from the fried chicken and waffles to the eggs benedict is worth ordering, and if you can’t make it out of bed today, we have even better news - they deliver." - brant cox
"Poppy + Rose is a casual downtown cafe that serves brunch classics like brioche french toast and lox bagel sandwiches across the street from The Flower Market. And if you book a reservation here Friday through Sunday, you can have it all on their fun new-ish rooftop patio. With its turf-lined floors and rows of picnic tables, the covered outdoor space sits on the top floor of a nearby parking garage. There’s great views of the DTLA skyline, a solid R&B playlist, and a bunch of friendly faces you can talk to after having one too many mimosas. If you’re planning a get-together Downtown with a bunch of your friends this summer, do it here with a plate of eggs benedict or fried chicken and waffles." - Nikko Duren
"Husband-and-wife owners Ryan and Diana Lamon lead Poppy & Rose, Downtown’s cozy daytime spot. In addition to soulful takes like biscuits and gravy, the kitchen makes a grilled vegetable sandwich with marinated zucchini, eggplant, bell pepper, red onion, lettuce, tomato, and herbed yogurt on ciabatta." - Mona Holmes
