Hands down the best coffee you can get. I came here for the first time and I'm kicking myself for not coming sooner I will be coming everyday as it seems everybody else who's ever been here that I've spoken to as I sat and had my coffee is regular as well now. Alexandra, very sweet and lovely person definitely knows what she's doing. Please come here you won't be disappointed and I am very glad that I tried the cardamom latte. That's going to be my new go-to. Maybe I'll be able to stretch and try something else, As it seems everybody I've spoken to says it's like coffee. You get in Europe good every time so you can't go wrong with whatever you got, but it's too good to jump outside the box right now with my new favorite.

Lady working or owner is rude as can be. Unwelcoming environment. Never in my life have I been treated so poorly by someone I’m trying to purchase something from. No way to conduct business. It’s giving Nazj vibes with how controlling she is. Clearly I’m not the first given the other reviews. You don’t want to welcome your neighbors we won’t welcome you either. Good riddance.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re looking for the perfect cup of coffee, Café Berlina is the place — and it’s all thanks to Alex, the incredible owner. From the moment you walk in, you can feel her passion for coffee and her dedication to making every guest feel welcome. She’s not just running a café — she’s creating an experience.
The coffee here is on another level — rich, smooth, and full of flavor, you can taste the quality in every sip. Whether it’s a latte, cappuccino, or a perfectly brewed pour-over, each drink is crafted with care and precision. You can tell Alex truly loves what she does, and it shows in every detail — from the beans she sources to the warmth in her hospitality.
Café Berlina isn’t just my go-to coffee spot — it’s a place that makes you look forward to your mornings. Thank you, Alex, for raising the bar for coffee lovers everywhere!

Such wonderful spot! Great ambiance, delicious baked goods, reasonable prices. So happy to actually find a place for enjoyment and not for work space in a social setting! Finally some civility to a cafe space. Thank you for keeping to sane values despite the entitled persons who reviewed negatively here simply based on their inability to work in a cafe???
This German-inspired cafe is very quaint and incredibly reasonably priced — the most affordable I’ve come across in Santa Monica. The hot chocolate was one of the best I’ve ever had and my wife really enjoyed her cappuccino! Ausgezeichnet!

Don’t go here. Terrible service and horrible coffee. The lady working does not like children and you can’t use your computer. This coffee shop will probably shut down soon.

Don’t step foot in here. I walked in with my 1 year old on a Monday morning, barely any customers. I waited 10 mins until the lady was ready to take my order, I picked up my son to come place my order and he cried a little, as babies do. When I got to her, she covered her ears and said sorry I can’t have a screaming child in here. I was in shock and just walked out. Horrible place. Maybe you should put a sign that says no babies allowed so you don’t traumatize other moms who walk in and are denied service because their baby made a sound.
