Mia PolowskiMay 25, 2017Me and my mum loves this coffee shop. Baristas are friendly and recently they started making housemade hazelnut lattes! This place is dog friendly too, so bring your fido! :))- Dëva HolikOctober 26, 2014Their espresso and Americans are hot and well done. The coffee is strong yet mild and flavorful. Their pastries come from a good bakery and the macaroons are a good addition.
Amazing coffee. Try a latte. Better than Luxxe and rivals intelligentsia. However, tip for new coffee shops on highly competitive streets: be extra friendly to your new customers. It goes a long way.
Aleksandra BooherMarch 13, 2014Get the cortado! The Danish is very delicious. I love the sleek interior and location of this place. Definitely will come back!
Bolivia pourover doesn't need anything in it. Mellow and rich. Perfect with a chocolate and pistachio cookie. So good they almost didn't make it to a picture
Sublime coffee, great atmosphere, good downbeat electro music, very bright with lots of natural light, very friendly staff. Only minus is the Valspeak audience.- miriam zikraJanuary 9, 2017My favorite Santa Monica coffee shop. Try their guatemala pour over or cold brew on tap. So delicious. Bring your pup too, they have awesome dog treats:)
The owners are a couple who told me that they met at a coffeeshop; so cute! They're always here on the weekends, even though they both have their "real" jobs during the week.
Adrienn CsákOctober 27, 2017Proper Flat white, delicious salty pastry & fresh pressed juices. It is nice to sit in the back as near cashier it is pretty busy in the morning. :)
The place was packed - super fun and great coffee to boot - I will be back/
They have kombucha on 2 nitro taps from health-aide. I remember pink lady apple and California grape or original.
the owner (Stewart) and team are wonderful. great use of space as well.
Mocha here is sweetened (perfectly) unlike some other shops. Don't miss monkey bread.
- Coffee is great. Nice spot. But given the location, the audience is audacious. Loud valspeak chicks.
Alfredo AponteJanuary 4, 2015Great space to meetup or relax alone; they serve a nice full body cappuccino.
Great almond latte, probably the best coffee on Montana avenue
- Great coffee. They use quality milk, unlike Luxxe up the street. But how do you open a coffee shop these days that doesn't have wifi?!!
Natalie KMay 26, 2016Hipster central. Their iced teas are super expensive & as far as I can tell just plain tea with ice in them.- The lemon ricotta pound cake with a hint of rosemary is very good and not too sweet.
Adri UpNovember 19, 2012Coffee is good, but ... No wi-fi!!!!! Just keep that in mind. Plus pastries are not that fresh and delicious
Jinnie LOctober 30, 2014no wifi here but don't care i'm here for their coffee anyway ;) great coffee!!!
- Quite possibly, the best thing to happen to Santa Monica in our lifetime. The pastries are extraordinary (via Farm Shop) and the coffee sublime (Stumptown). Sip. Smile. Enjoy life :)
Order an iced drink. Baristas use a cocktail shaker to mix your drink
Jason McKinneyApril 6, 2014If you want coffee that will crack you out of your mind then this is the place. Way too strong for me. Felt ill all day...
