Fight over L.A. County's oldest cafe boils over in trademark claims, court filings

After the longest-operating cafe in L.A. County announced in late December that it would shut down after 139 years, customers of the Original Saugus Cafe began buying up its branded hats, T-shirts, mugs and other merchandise. When the merch sold out, some took to filching from the tables: glassware, salt and pepper shakers, and even utensils. To Jessie Mercado, 31, and her father, Alfredo - who has owned the beloved cafe in Santa Clarita for 30 years - it was amusing and sweet that many held the establishment so close to their hearts that they wanted to take pieces of it home with them.
