26 Best Coffee Shops in Culver City

“We randomly ended up to this restaurant: small, but pleasant, the type of place where you can talk with your friends. Party of three, we had the fish carpaccio, the octopus, and the burger (gourmet burger!). Everything was prepared to perfection. They will definitely see us again.“

“Fantastic coffee. espresso or drip, they know exactly what they are doing“

“These guys have the BEST breakfast chorizo burrito. It’s so good, and healthy. Their coffee is great too, I typically have only gotten their iced lattes and chai lattes. The place is cute too with tabletop chess boards to play if you dine in, which I’ve also done a couple times. I frequent here a lot, mostly takeout but enjoy dining in when I have time too. This place is so unassumingly amazing.“

“Great coffee several drinks are a little too sweet for my taste, ask for half the sugar or just honey drizzle they taste amazing. Definitely a study vibe usually a very quite calm place. Upper floor great for reading or studying. All of their cakes or cheese cakes are fire! 100% recommend“

“Super cute coffee shop with very friendly staff and a lovely, sunny corner vibe. Definitely try their signature vanilla bourbon latte. It is excellent, and their large is actually a large, which I appreciate. A great spot to sit, relax, and enjoy the light.“

“Had my first date with my bf here about 1.5 years ago. Service & atmosphere were great and it was the only place that was quiet enough and had tables large enough for us to play the board game we wanted to play. That being said, the passionfruit boba was the worst one I’ve ever had lmao“

“This was the best matcha I’ve had in the U.S.! At many other places, matcha can taste grassy, but here it had a rich, toasty bitterness with a clean finish, absolutely delicious! It tasted very similar to the matcha I had in Japan.
We ordered the half-sweet matcha latte with matcha soft serve, and the cream cheese tart. Everything was excellent!“

“I write for a music and coffee blog called Crooners In Coffeeshops, in which I interview local musicians at local coffeeshops. My writeup reflects the positive experience that I encountered at Cognoscenti Coffee on our interview date. Modern meets comfort with a hint of retro inside (and outside) Culver City’s Cognoscenti Coffee. Don’t let its small exterior fool you, because once you step inside you will be welcomed by a slew of cute bistro tables, industrial benches, and colorful chairs. But wait, there’s more! Veer to the right and catch a breath of fresh air in their somewhat secluded patio area. Whether you’re meeting with your bestie or having a writer’s meeting, you will easily be able to find a space to fit however many people in your party. Now let’s get to the good stuff! Cognoscenti’s beverage menu is comprised of the classics along with fun seasonal recipes in the mix. My drink of choice, the surprisingly refreshing Turmeric Latte. I wasn’t quite sure what I was getting myself into, but I’m very glad that my day to be adventurous was an enjoyable one with its perfect ratio of milk to spice. Hungry? Check out their selection of huge (and I mean huge) pastries to fill you up for breakfast or to hold you over until your group dinner in one of the Downtown Culver restaurants.“

“I love this place. Great baristas. Great espresso. Amazing Fizzy tea“

“Got some pastries, the flowerless chocolate cake was super sugary but the chocolate croissant was awesome. The service was great and it seems like a nice quiet place for coffee. I got a little disappointed with some of the responses to reviews though“

“So much more than a bookstore with a coffee shop. It's a perfect cafe to meet up, get a unique book, do a work session, or catch one of the many events - it's a place with people that make you feel part of the community. It's a very unique spot where everyone feels invited and welcome.“

“Love this treasure in the heart of Mar Vista.“

“Great coffee. Great pastries.“

“Young Hispanic guy that helped us was awesome! but his co-workers were a little loud and obnoxious yelling from behind the counter to other coworker in market about their personal life issues while the dude was making all drinks he even had to ask her to move out of his way while he's working and she was just yelling n doing nothing. So the 5 stars go to the young dude that was working today around 3pm. Thanks for my double iced shaken espresso with breve , sfvanilla and venti java chip It was perfect!“

“Absolutely amazing!! I can’t begin to thank the owner for his generosity and help. We have a campervan and have had a tremendously hard time finding a place to fill. It’s been nearly impossible. We stopped by without much hope and he went above and beyond finding a way to make it work. He spent 20 minutes looking for adapters and we were successfully able to fill our tank, with fresh great drinking water no less. Highly highly recommend“

“It was so delicious 😋 definitely going back“

“Working place Love it Very convenient ❤️“

“First time getting coffee here and I’ll definitely be back! I tried the seasonal sensation Tiramisu Latte and it didn’t disappoint. Perfect amount of sweetness and delightful dusting of cocoa powder on top. The coffee itself was smooth and surprisingly refreshing. Philz offers plenty of dairy free options as well. The drink itself: 4.5/5“

“Good food, great atmosphere,friendly and fast service,I recommend to everyone,👍🏼“

“Nice place to enjoy your coffee“

“I had a great experience at Starbucks today! The barista at the counter was incredibly polite and patient while explaining how to redeem my 500 Stars. He took the time to make sure I understood everything. The rest of the team was just as friendly and welcoming, and the store was very clean and inviting. Overall, an excellent visit! Thank you for the great service!“

“The best Starbucks in the United States! My most favorites one. Victoria and the entire team are super super super friendly, all of them make perfect drinks and they tastes delicious!! A hot americano in their store is My everyday routine! Cheers to the great team and great store! Visit them and you know exactly what I am talking about 😊“
