The Bloc

Café Balzac

The Bloc is a vibrant, open-air urban center, a growing, inclusive community, a LEED™ certiﬁed Gold project, an inﬂection point in the heart of downtown Los Angeles. Encompassing a full city block along LA’s iconic 7th Street corridor, The Bloc connects the ﬁnancial, fashion, jewelry, and theater districts – and the 7th Street Metro Center Station, where four DTLA lines converge.

Café Balzac is inspired by Honoré de Balzac, a French writer who was known to have 46 espressos a day! At Café Balzac we offer fresh gourmet coffee and espresso drinks, sweet and savory crêpes and curated pastries. We are a little slice of France in the heart of DTLA!

We offer our customers not only the finest quality, but also certified, sustainable and responsibly made products. Our gelatos are made using time-honored, artisan techniques and feature pure cane sugar, ripe seasonal fruits and fresh pasteurized Real California dairy, free of growth hormones and sourced using the highest standards of animal care and environmental stewardship.

Bellalina gelatos are made of the finest ingredients from around the world including Real Belgium Chocolate, Italian Nut Paste, Argentine Dulce de Leche, Alphonso Mangos from India, Sicilian Blood Oranges, Madagascar Vanilla, and more.
