What should you order at Little King?
Order the Valley Breakfast Sandwich. The LA Times describes it as bacon, egg and American cheese on a biscuit, and Little King's own Instagram calls it "the one, the only" (Oct 6, 2026). Pumpkin spice returned to both shops on Sept 12, 2026, and seasonal drinks rotate, so ask what's pouring.
