About Modern Bread and Bagel
Modern Bread and Bagel is a 100% gluten-free bakery café located on Griffith Park Boulevard in Silver Lake. Originally founded in New York, the concept is known for its artisanal, small-batch bagels, breads, and pastries crafted from gluten-free flours and seasonal ingredients. The focus is on quality and craftsmanship, creating baked goods that feel satisfying and approachable whether or not you follow a gluten-free lifestyle.
The atmosphere is relaxed and bright, balancing café comfort with a polished, modern feel. Guests often stop in for a slow breakfast, a midday coffee break, or a casual meal with friends.

Insider Tips
Weekday mornings tend to be quieter and perfect for a relaxed visit. Popular baked items may sell out later in the day, so earlier visits often offer the best selection. Street parking is typical in Silver Lake, so allowing a few extra minutes helps keep the outing stress-free. Pairing a bagel or pastry with coffee makes for a simple, satisfying neighborhood ritual.
