I had the great pleasure to shop here for a year or so when I lived in Hollywood. I was always intrigued by the legendary allure of this place, particularly within the musical community. Even the late great Jim Morrison wrote a song about the store. On my first of many ventures to get their great deli food, I was deeply curious about the great musical legacy. I got to see where Mama Cass stayed (yes she lived here once upon a time in the lower level) and see press clippings of another icon, David Bowie, ordering his favorite English sweets here. I also got to meet Tommy, a rock and roll star owner if there ever was one, and be regaled by tales of the stores history. The store: the deli sandwiches are fantastic. They really are and there is terrific variety. You get alot for your buck. You can find pretty much every type of food, drink or sweet here within reason and the prices are good, considering the location and prestige. But, it's the warm community of Laurel Canyon locals that further make this a special place to be prized and valued beyond mere storefront. Recently, the L.A. city department is fining this establishment for the decades old murals that have carried the charm and history of Hollywood. It's inconceivable that this is happening to a landmark establishment, but sadly as of August 2019, this is the case. Show Tommy and the Canyon store your support. L.A. is continuing to be oversaturated with sterile and overpriced apartments and the city is in haste to demolish watershed landmarks in the name of the almighty dollar. I hope that the store is spared this ignorance, as it would be utterly shameful for this treasure trove of Hollywood history to be another bureaucratic casualty. In closing, great store for the practical needs, food, drink and a great sense of community here too, with many artists, musicians and local residents having conversations on the outdoor patio, or convening for special yearly events here. It's a must for Los Angeles history enthusiasts and for those looking for a great high end but charming (and not pricey) local country store

Romantically tucked away in a shaded hillside, you’ll find this store that The Doors mentioned in “Love Street” and where many famous musicians now but up and coming then shopped for their groceries. Inside, it almost feels more like some rustic log cabin than a grocery store beautifully adorned with blown up photos of local residents posing in front of the store over the years, the Mamas and the Papas, and of course Jim Morrison and The Doors. So why then did I give it a four star instead of a five star rating? You would think with all this history the people running the place and it’s current patrons would seamlessly meld with it’s historic 60’s bohemian spirit but somehow, something wasn't quite geling in that regard upon my visit unfortunately. I give kudos for there being no renovations made to the place but the prices of the food they're selling at the deli and on the shelves says it all to me: exploitation. And the people that go there seem more like gentrifiers to me or have the audacity that somehow by buying overpriced coffee and hanging out on the store's patio, bestows upon them a continuation of it’s former patrons creative energy? Baloney. Sorry, I mean I’ll keep coming back here but that free wheeling magical hippie vibe of the place from yonder years seems at best muddled or perhaps gone(?) from this once magical and mystical place.

Our first visit to the Canyon Country Store was late at night after a long music rehearsal on Kirkwood Drive high above Laurel Canyon across the street. We had been playing rock and roll and it was nice to take a break in the quiet of the darkened restaurant below taking our time with delicious sandwiches and coffee prepared to perfection served with a smile with rock and roll memorabilia always available at this historic funky restaurant and general store. Joni Mitchell, Crosby Stills Nash and Young, Jimmy Hendrix, Jim Morrison and many other 60s rock and roll legends lived and performed in Laurel Canyon with their memorabilia on display at the Canyon Country Store. We talked about our upcoming performances at our Laurel Canyon music studio in this beautifully wooded hillside section of Los Angeles. Soon it was time to leave but not before another delicious meal with cups of home brewed coffee served with smiles and farewell stories. The Canyon Country Store is a must see and a recommended visit when in Los Angeles it's definitely awesome.

LOVE IT!!!! LOTS and LOTS AND UBER LOTS!!! A Family Friend owned this for years - and I enjoyed stopping there for Ice Tea on my daily jogs ... I lived down the street for years - once I even rented the Studio-Owned "Greta Garbo Mansion" = WOWEE WOWEE DUUUH - it's like PURE GOLDDUST there (the GG HOUSE) ... never experienced "real Hollywood" like in Laurel Canyon - Golden Age Hollywood - 1920's-1930's everything .... Thanks to Bradford Craig - the owner of the Greta Garbo House - he's the #1 Interior Designer and Landscaper in the USA - a National Treasure for sure!!!! And so is my cousin who owned this store for so many years!!!!! AMAZING ... a short walk down to Sunset Boulevard to the Chateau Marmont as well - encroyable!!!

Nice little country store! Nice service. However my husband and I each ordered a egg bacon and cheese sandwich for 7.99 each, and each sandwich only had 1 little piece of bacon on it. For that price, I would hope for atleast a few pieces of bacon on each sandwich, otherwise it's just basically an egg sandwich, lots of egg, dont be so stingy with the bacon, the part that makes the sandwich taste the best!

My mom grew up listening to The Doors, and this was just cool. We spent the day at the Canyon Country store where the creatures meet. It's located up through Laurel Canyon Boulevard and Kirkwood Drive. Next, we walked next door to Love Street. ❤️ The whole entire experience was fun!! The staff at the Canyon Country Store were so nice, and we ended up having lunch there!

This is by far the coolest coffee place in the city. Yeah, baby. Come for a chat. The store has general store written all over it and definitely feels like you’ve gone camping! They have a salad/food bar too with lots of healthy options. Great history with this place too, check it out!

So cool and iconic! Went there twice in one day coming and going from Santa Monica with my family. Interesting fact, is that Jim Morrison and Pam lived literally across the street and about one mile away is the house where the Wonderland Murders took place in 1981.

Iconic place… so many stories. I went for a coffee but nothing in the afternoon. Parking 15 mins only. Line Street is nearby but bear in mind parking is extremely hard to find. There is a restaurant nearby but also no parking.

Cet endroit est magique et respire l'histoire de la période hippie. Avec un peu de chance, le propiétaire vous fera visiter les sous-sols. Les fantômes de Mama Cass, de Jim Morrison et de David Bowie habitent encore ces lieux.

my favorite place. I hang out there for hours meeting interesting people especially the owner Tommy. He has great stories of the history of the store and all of his encounters. Great deli sandwiches and good wine selection.

Great neighborhood convenience store with tons of history. The deli counter has very good veggie and pasta salads. Coffee and pastries on porch in the mornings. Pace restaurant downstairs also a fave. …

A cool little spot for a quick run to the store combined with a bite of food or a cup of coffee. In the hillside of Laurel Canyon, right by Love Street with all it's history. Tranquil and colorful atmosphere

The best and freshest food at the deli counter.Remarkably friendly staff.Sitting at the tables in front of the store is my little corner of peace and spiritual tranquility.

5 stars! Looking for a quite quick stop? Don’t just drive by. Enjoy the canyon from the front porch with a coffee or a sandwich! #AskAnderson Franchise Analyst dot com

The owners of this establishment are antisemitic and should be avoided by all people of conscience.They are also rude to customers and their product selection sucks.

Cool place but mediocre and bland sandwiches, very basic and expensive. If you guys added Italian dressing to your sandwiches, it could be a game changer.

Cute store but waaay overpriced and during this time of COVID-19 where people are out of work they won’t accept. EBT. Not cool.

I loved my massive Gatorade I got here. The girl didn't know how much it was so she said $3 will do. I was super happy.

Frequented this spot for the last several years. Great people and good vibes. The coffee served out front is …

Incredible little convenience store with all the necessities. Excellent sandwiches, coffee, owner, staff!

Disgusting and filthy. All the food looks old and out dated. Some people say it's charming, I disagree

This place is the real deal. A throwback which refuses to be killed or co-opted. Keep on keeping on!

A cozy place for shopping. You can imagine Carol King and James Taylor shopped her in 70's.

Holy carp. Try the pastrami samdwich. Its not as salty like most pastramis. I like it.

Store owner followed me around the store as if I was a thief. What year is it??

My home whenever im in the hills....best coffee breakfast and service in town

More than makes up for all its faults with an inexpressible dirty charm.

It’s a very good store. Well stocked. Also lots of history behind it.

Old building, small, parking crowded, good sandwiches, coffee, cake..

Love this store, Laurel Canyon history, Jim Morisson house, actors...

Nice sandwiches and a chill vibe on the front porch !

A true treasure in The Canyon! Love it!

Felt lucky there! My change was 4.20$!

Super cute store nestled in the hills

Great for breakfast

Phones never work.
