With its coastal aesthetic and laid-back sensibility, Great White Melrose brings a slice of Australian café culture to West Hollywood. The space is a composition of plaster walls, soft woods, and a large, landscaped patio complete with twin fireplaces. This creates an environment that is both casual and considered, a neighborhood-focused spot offering a sense of escape throughout the day. It’s a setting where a morning coffee can easily extend into a long lunch with a glass of natural wine. The kitchen operates from morning until night, serving fresh, brightly flavored California fare that evolves as the day unfolds. While brunch is a first-come, first-served affair, the establishment transitions smoothly into a dinner destination. The cooking centers on thoughtful simplicity, using seasonal and organic produce from local growers. Over time, a few signature items have come to define the food, including a breakfast burrito that has earned a reputation as one of the best in town. Beyond the initial offerings of the day, the selection includes fresh salads, bowls, and wood-fired pizzas. The evening carte introduces heartier plates, with dishes like crispy fish and various pastas making an appearance. The beverage program complements the cooking with a focus on bright, approachable natural wines from small, independent producers. Housed in a former laundromat with a distinctive pink exterior, Great White Melrose has transformed a utilitarian building into a polished, welcoming destination that serves its community all day long.
