The Grain Cafe - Redondo Beach

I have eaten here before, years ago. I don’t really remember what I had. I stopped in here for an early lunch today, and they were only serving breakfast so I got their breakfast special, which was hashbrowns, scrambled tofu, sausage links, and a plate of pancakes. It was pretty good.

My husband and I love eating here. We usually come for breakfast. There are so many delicious options. The staff here are so nice. The food is presented like art. We usually eat here once a month. Their coffee is delicious. Their wraps are delicious. They have many delicious desserts. We can't stay away. We love this place.

We are staying in Redondo Beach for a few days and are so happy to be near The Grain Cafe. Huge choice of delicious food. Wonderful friendly service. Wish we could have one in the UK!! Thank you so much.

The fresh customizable bowls and healthy lentil soup were great! All healthy and fresh low processed ingredients. Loved their cappuccino- my friend who is an omnivore was shocked how good it was.

Stopped in today for lunch and enjoyed a hearty wet burrito with seitan. Went well with the house's hot sauce. Very pleasant but unobtrusive service.

Food: The food ist absolutely delicious there! Staff: The staff is very friendly and courteous. Location: It is very cozy to sit inside.

I've only been once, but this feels like the kind of place where you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Huge selection. Amazing flavors. Possibly the best vegan cake I've ever had.

Club sandwich is amazing! Cute vegan spot I always hit while in redondo beach

We went for breakfast & ordered the Waffle Special w/ Tempeh bacon, crispy hash-browns, Tofu scramble, & Whole grain waffle (no powder sugar & no whip cream) & Chilaquiles plate. Had hot Chai Lates w/ plant based mylk. Delicious!! They open at 6am, bonus!! Updated from previous review on 2024-12-23

Pleasantly surprised to find vegan breakfast options. Order the club. It was good. Potatoes are nice

Had the veggie crepe with red potatoes. The crepe was large & was stuffed with fresh spinach, mushrooms, peppers & zucchini. It was so good and the garlic aioli sauce was the perfect enhancement with a little tang. Also ordered Huevos Rancheros and really enjoyed the dish. They have a large selection of Vegan cakes, which was very exciting. Took a piece of carrot cake & a piece of 3 leches. Both cakes were very moist. The carrot was my favorite of the 2, but that's just my personal preference. Will definitely come back if near 1 in CA again in the future. Updated from previous review on 2024-12-15

Pretty good food but low-key pricey. $18 for a hot dog is like dodger stadium prices

I love their tacos, breakfast, cakes and hot drinks.

Off the cuff this place is banging. The food is delicious! So good the posole I had two bowls. The carne asada tacos to die for the chicken tacos are just as good. The tortas the chorizo torta was delicious. I will say this though. There's a waiter there. His name is Justin. He was probably one of the coolest people I've ever met. Give that guy a raise. Not only did he have a vast knowledge of the food on the menu, but a great idea and understanding of the background of the food and his personality and you really can't beat it. I will definitely be visiting this place again. Not just cuz of the food but Justin as well. I was blown away by the carne asada tacos and the pozole. If you're looking for good quality vegan food, this is the spot!!!

Not quite like it used to be. Prices are way up, which I understand that part, but my last wet burrito was super skimpy and dry. To pay all that money, and then skimp out on the recipes that made you great is not a good strategy.
