Build the visit around breakfast or a coffee break
Bandit works well as a daytime anchor in Grand Central. Have your coffee stop before planning an afternoon elsewhere: its café hours are shorter than a typical evening bar. The kitchen and bakery give you a food option, while the bottle shop adds something to browse beyond the espresso counter.
Arriving on Central Avenue
The visit page lists a customer parking lot and time-limited street parking. Read the parking signs rather than assuming a long stay is included. If you are combining Bandit with Hawthorne or Grand Central Brewhouse, compare their hours first; sharing a neighborhood does not mean every venue opens at the same time.
Questions before you go

No. Bandit explicitly says it does not provide Wi-Fi. Choose it for coffee and conversation, or plan your own connection if you need one.
Does Bandit only serve coffee?
No. Its official visit page also lists tea, food, natural-wine bottles, and beer.
