50 Best Cafes near El Segundo

“Wish we had this amazing cafe back home. The menu? There were so many appetizing choices, it was hard to choose! 😊The food is super yummy and the people who run it are so sweet!“

“5-STAR RECOMMENDATION: The food is excellent! I highly recommend the tasty chicken (1/2 dark meat) with a side order of the chicken pasta salad! Ask for the House Red Salsa and splurge a little extra and get the bottle (you won't regret it)! To finish off, I suggest the Chewy Coco-nut Cookie, which is absolutely delicious!“

“Great food and even better service“

“Fast, friendly service. Fresh, delicious dishes. What’s not to love?“

“California native that transplanted to Wichita Kansas and I will say without a doubt, FANTASTIC CAFE will always have the best breakfast burritos by far and the best food under one roof by far!! And the for the price you just can't beat!“

“Best cup of coffee in town! I recommend the Nitro brew...Wake up & Yummmm! ☕“

“The best gyros I've ever tasted.“

“I've been to several Marmalades and the food is usually predictable. We requested a booth and we able to get seated right away. Their patio is very nice and I think I will ask for that the next time I visit. The only negative issue we have is the fact cleanliness of their ladies restroom. The trash can was full needed emptying. The floor was dirty and one of the stalls didn't have liners for the toilet seat. I was surprised to see this especially for Marmalade's. I d report this the gal at the front.“

“Excellent food, service, and atmosphere. A little expensive but where else can you get this kind of meal for this price? Any good food is about this price anyway. The only thing is why did they do away with sourdough bread??? Or am I incorrect on that?“

“Great white is an amazing place. I’ve been there for dinner and lunch. The breakfast burrito is my favorite in all of LA but the dinner experience, the atmosphere is very fun it’s the perfect spot for casual family friendly dinner where the food is amazing The burger was delicious and so are the fish tacos. finally, the banana bread for dessert was so tasty.“

“Nice vibes, convenient location with easy parking, beautiful decor. Service was lacking, but understand there is a labor shortage right now, perhaps that's to blame here. Bodega sando was perfection! Pastries were alright...most looked better than they tasted. I'd say they were good but not great.“

“LOVE !!! such a cute persian cafe. so many lovely persian and persian inspired dishes. u HAVE to get the lavashak smoothie and the amoo palmer (it has orange blossom and a special mix by the owner). everyone working there is so friendly. shoutout eileen for helping with my first time here and being so kind!“

“Open Market catered a wedding reception I was coordinating in October, and they were wonderful. Their restaurant is one of the bride's favorites, and they were great. The food is delicious, and I'm working on getting my husband over there soon. They couldn't have been more accommodating and flexible during the planning, and they were straight pros at the reception. As a planner, I love caterers that are easy to work with and easy for my couple's to work with, and it was a great experience for everyone.

Vegetarian options: Delicious!

Dietary restrictions: We didn't have a lot of them, but they did create delicious vegetarian meals for the guests who needed it.“

“My fiancée and I are fortunate enough to live a short walk away from Yagul and can’t get enough of it! Authentic and delicious Oaxacan food/drink (you literally cannot go wrong with anything on the menu) and the most wonderful and warm staff you’ll find in all of West LA. One of the true gems in our community.“

“Love the atmosphere, great place to try authentic Turkish dishes ( İskender , dolma , mercimek çorba, Lahmacun) 😋😋😋🇹🇷🧿“

“The sweet and Saby’s burrito was good - like a 7.6/10. It was hot but lacked texture. Need to griddle the outside.

Unfortunately, we ordered in the restaurant at 9:30 and had to wait over an hour for our burritos. It was absolutely chaos inside with DoorDash and uberEats people yelling about their orders every second. They need to dedicate a specific area outside to to-go orders.

Had high expectations. Was just fine.“

“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.“

“The self care breakfast was perfect if you enjoy the Mediterranean style breakfast. What makes a big difference is just the quality of the ingredients. The feta, olives, eggs, the olive oil. So good. It was taking a little while to get our food, and they so kindly just brought us a piece of cake which also was delicious! Would definitely be a regular customer here.“

“This was absolutely amazing. I stumbled on it one day from work looking for lunch and I was so pleased to find it! The crepes are amazing. So clean and the food was perfect. The icing on the cake was the amazing coffee I came and had the next morning. I reccomend this to anyone looking for a good savory or sweet option day and night.“

“Amazing coffee and drinks but even more amazing service. I stopped in recently postpartum with my toddler in tow and unfortunately spilled my drink everywhere as I was trying to leave. Hanna and Mher kindly helped me immediately and remade my drink. Totally saved my day!“

“Great place! Awesome service.“

“The food was excellent! The service was excellent also ! Nice place“

“My wife and I went to the Grove in Los Angeles last night and we had dinner at "Sogno Toscana," an it was outstanding. It was perfect in every way; great food, great drinks, outstanding and friendly staff, beautiful location, etc. I love Italian food but I can't think of one Italian restaurant that I like, until "Sogno Toscano." The food was outstanding, and there was so much more we saw go by that we can't wait to go back and try. And the drinks were outstanding. I love martini's and they served the best martini I've ever had. Giacomo was our server and took great care of us. He's from Italy and "Sogno Toscana" brought him to America when they opened their New York restaurant, and now he's in LA for this new restaurant. Although very busy, the entire staff were very fun to be around, and most of them are Italian which is also great.“

“Such a sweet and kind establishment“

“The staff and owners are beyond amazing!! Their love for the community and passion to serve others makes me believe in goodness again in this world. I love you guys! Thank you so much for all you do!!“

“Great new neighborhood spot! The food is healthy and delicious. Lots of variety on the menu so everyone should have a few excellent choices!“

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

“Awaken Cafe is a wonderful little spot in LA with great coffee, delicious drinks, and fresh pastries. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and family-friendly. It’s a great place to meet friends, bring the kids, or just relax with a good cup of coffee. Definitely worth stopping by if you’re in the area! ☕“

“My wife found this great hole in the wall on our way back from Hollywood this morning. You can be pretty sure you're getting good coffee when there's an Aussie at the bar, but this fellow pulls great shots. Do yourself a favor and try this place out before some influencer discovers it and you need to wait in line to get some of this great brew. I imagine street parking can get dodgy in this neighborhood, but there's a public parking lots just a few steps away.“

“I had the Chicken Pesto panini and it was SO GOOD! Match waffle was actually good as well. Orange juice was PERFECT! I waited outside for 45 minutes to get a table for 6 people on a Sunday- if you’re in a rush I’d recommend reserving a table if it’s possible.“

“This location for goodboybob has been a favorite of my wife and I since we moved to the south bay. Its convenient location adjacent to the public library and a block up from the beach makes it a frequent pit stop or starting point for us. The coffees are always delicious and the pastries are solid. Though the pastries can run a little pricey it is consistent with the surrounding market. I specifically am writing this review to highlight though the excellent service. Today one of the baristas (I believe his name was Saul??) generously and pleasantly explained the different beans when he noticed I was checking some of the bags and he spent the time to explain to be the different beans, the variations in roasting process that differentiate some of them, his favorites, and went as far to provide me a fresh hot sample of some that we were discussing. At the end of it I left with just the latte I came in for(which was exceptional as always), but I also left with greater appreciation for the coffee I was enjoying and a good idea of what I can look for and enjoy in my coffee.“

“Don't walk.. RUN to kyucafe. Seriously. They use beans from a local roaster that always has quality beans. The staff is very friendly and the kimchi is 🔥

Grab a riceball for quick on the go breakfast or snack, made fresh every day! A very impressive addition to the neighborhood. So excited to see it. 💛“

“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.“

“Muy buena y personal muy amable“

“The food was great and the service was excellent! Will definitely be back.“

“Very nice cozy place. The owner Sergio is think was his name. He was very conversant, makes great tasting coffee even decaf. The cortado was delicious even when I had a decaf. Just like regular coffee. And the churros con chocolate were devine.“

“My daughter and I had a great lunch here. Great staff, and the menu is extensive, with much variety. She eats vegetarian, and had good choices.“

“I loved the citrus tea.. it was delicious.“

“Not close to my first time getting coffee here, I've also come for various events, but its my first time leaving a review, because I couldn't not do so for this. Got their email with the new seasonal drinks including this Orange Blossom latte that I just have to try. Ordered it from home on their app as I head out for work yesterday, get there, head straight to the counter, it's not there. All good, I'm only 5 mins away, I see it's already packed in here this early in the AM, so it's just not ready yet. I sit to wait... tick, tick, tick, time goes past, commute out there's getting worse, time to clock in's getting closer, where's my coffee? One of the baristas calls me up to the counter and she's like: What'd you get? I tell her and she says I don't have a ticket for that. I tell her, No I ordered it on the app. I go to look, and Dang, still unpaid in my cart. Line at the counter's long so I reorder on the app right there on the spot, go sit back down. Tick, tick, tick... tick, tick, tick... Girl calls me back up to the counter: I still don't see your order... No, you saw me order it. Pull it up on my app and Fuuu, I ordered it for Hill St in DTLA, this is Slauson. I look up and she says: Don't worry about it, you don't have to drive all the way over there, I gotchu. I dropped $5 bucks in their glass tip jar on my way out. Ain't no way Starbux up the road would've done that. I wish I'd gotten her name, but if you're reading this, you have no idea how much you made my morning yesterday. Thank youuu! And that OBL was so good.“

“Además de lo delicioso que estaban los Shucos y los Chai tea que disfrutamos el ambiente es muy agradable y su personal muy amigable. Sí lo recomiendo“

“Very friendly group there. They had information available about all the cats and you could tell they loved where they worked. The cats are obviously well cared for and the facility is well maintained. I was impressed with the entire experience and will definitely be back.“

“Pretty good experience overall. The service is fast and responsive. The atmosphere was very family style and while a little cramped, the space was very well decorated.

I got the breakfast burrito which was pretty standard. Only issue is that the cutlery I had was dull, the fork couldn’t stab anything. Iced latte was very good.

Solid spot for brunch if you can find parking.“

“I would’ve added a picture of my food, but it was so good. I ate it too quickly. We got the breakfast burrito and the pretzel croissant sandwich. Croissant flaky buttery pretzel so delicious. The breakfast burrito had the perfect amount of eggs incredible. Prices were phenomenal compared to other places I’ve been in the atmosphere was pleasant. You will not be disappointed if you stop here for breakfast.“

“They needed better air conditioning and accurate time for pick up food was cold.“

“High quality food, tastes like the homemade wholesome Ukrainian food back in Ukraine. YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED. 😀“

“Oh my gosh! Great food! Huge portions! Awesome staff- so very friendly! Love this place! Shhhh- don’t tell everyone about this place- tee hee! Seriously some delicious food!❤️“

“First time at this Cafe. Super nice atmosphere the people are great! My dad always says “that’s what makes a place good”. The food was very good (sorry no pics) but I ordered the Wildflower Two’s (eggs over easy w/ham and potatoes (not greasy) and rosemary garlic toast. Our server Andrea was super nice! Reasonable prices and the best 80’s music ever!! Nice little gem 💎 they also have outside seating with a super nice breeze!!“

“I’ve only visited twice, but the food is beyond amazingly good! The dishes are well prepared, fresh, and just the right amount of seasoning. Best hummus ever. I’m someone that has a hard time finding food I like, so I always look forward to coming here. Service is always warm and friendly.“

“good food good coffee good service and very close to home“
