I’m certain that this is the best cappuccino on the west side! The espresso beans are perfectly roasted, not too dark, and the flavor comes through beautifully balanced with the most luxurious, silky-smooth microfoam layer on top. I’ve been to pretty much all the coffee shops in the area and the quality of this one consistently outdoes the rest. You can tell how good this place is based on the fact there is a line at any time of day!

No wifi but seating inside is warm and comfortable.

Consistently great. I've been coming here for years. They have the best cold brew in LA in my humble opinion and I've tried a lot of them. Their Ethiopian pour-over is also stellar.

Shop looked nice but Hazelnut lattes and a chai latte all came out tasting weird/bitter/off. Had to add sweeteners to all of them.

Best coffee in Santa Monica, period. I've made it my daily ritual during my stay here, trying everything from their steaming hot drinks to their iced offerings.

Each cup delivered that perfect coffee satisfaction - you know, the one you're desperately seeking after a five-mile morning walk along the beach.

(Pro tip: Had a rough night? Order the Shakerato)

You reversed your no pets policy or if you still have the sign on you allow pets to come in anyways and don’t say anything to the people coming in with their pets. food and animals should never mix!

Very bitter coffee. Never had anything like it. Croissant was fine, too doughy though
