14 Best Cafes in Venice

“Such a beautiful and amazing place! the food was superb and the service was top-notch. The only downside is that it gets crowded and even though we had a reservation we had to wait for 15 minutes. Overall, I recommend visiting at least once!“

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

“I lived in Venice before the pandemic, and remember Gjusta having the most incredible cold brew and pastries. 5+ years later, only the cold brew holds up. The pastries are fine, but they lack the crispy flakiness that separates a great pastry from a good one. The flies have also become a big problem out back. Still love Gjusta, but some of the shine has definitely worn off. Where can a man get a great pastry in LA??“

“restaurant right on Abbot Kenny beautiful cozy interior food menu and drink menu is very large. They divided into veggies, raw pasta, pizza, and mains so there is a lot of food to choose from but the waiters were very helpful. We especially like the pizzas.“

“Tried it yesterday. Stopped for a coffee and stayed for the outdoor seating. The cappuccino was excellent!“

“Stopped in for a break from the beach and heat and, as lovers of all things Italian, this was an easy choice. We had pizza and ice creams, all of which were delicious. I loved the fact that you could try a little sample of the gelato before choosing your flavour. Most importantly, the coffee was excellent!\n\nService was really good, and we were made to feel welcome; seating is a bit limited but we managed to get a table under one of the umbrellas outside, which suited us just fine. \n\nDefinitely recommend: an authentic Italian cafe with an awesome view.“

“Such a fun spot in Venice! The vibe is super bright and welcoming and the staff made me feel right at home. I tried the strawberry matcha (amazing!) and the matcha lemonade which was very refreshing. Definitely a place I’d come back to whenever I’m in the area.“

“Authentically unique and super sweet! Let's talk matcha.... it's imported from Japan and not frozen, so it's super potent and not so bitter. The customer service is super on point and it's unique because there is a skin care boutique as you enter on the right and then towards the back and yoga studio. So very neat! This place is charming in so many ways we will be back“

“Received a free sample at an event and I'm now hooked! Some of the best coffee I've ever had!“

“Hands down my favorite restaurant! 🥰“

“Great service and Great product.“

“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 Flowerboy Project on our interview date. I had heard of the illustrious Flowerboy Project from not only friends in the Venice Beach area, but also from digital word-of-mouth as well as praise from the Los Angeles Coffee Guide. Since starting this endeavor, floral type coffees (i.e. rose, lavender, etc.) had become my jam, and I was genuinely intrigued with how the shop functions as both a florist and a coffeeshop, so why not follow through on my curiosity? Well, I definitely was not disappointed in my adventure and am already excited to make my way back! The nice thing about Flowerboy Project is that it’s located in a relatively quieter part of Venice. It’s close enough to the beach and the popular Abbot Kinney area without the heavy crowds, yet still gets enough foot traffic for locals to discover it and stay afloat as a business. It’s a smaller shop that can fill up quickly at the peek ‘I need coffee, stat!’ hours, but if you’re lucky enough to snag a seat inside you will never want to leave! The lush, garden/botanical-like atmosphere is highlighted with Insta-worthy gold and pastel accents to add a slight trendy feel with a playlist dedicated to classic surf rock reminiscent of its location. Now, all you need is one of their signature coffees and a yummy pastry and you’ll want to make Flowerboy your new favorite shop!“

“Super déco et très bonne nourriture . Un vrai régal . On a adoré“

“Passing this cute cafe for uncountable times, I finally made my way there. Yeah, it's always tricky visiting places at the busiest spot of Venice Beach - joy of finding parking spot in LA! Besides they mostly looked pretty busy on weekends, probably great stop to make while enjoying the stroll by the beach.

Their interior was nothing but SLAY. Period. Contemporary retro vibe, with great ambience to just sit killing time or even get some work done.

For the cup size, the coffee was quite pricey yet the great taste made it worth. I loved their Salted Caramel Latte, which was more on the sweeter side. I have been eyeing their pastries but unfortunately they were all gone when I arrived.“
