"Caffe Luxxe is an exquisite cafe and L.A.'s premiere coffee roaster. They're located in Montana ave in Santa Monica. They serve good coffee and tea drinks as well as pastries. I have drove by them a few time and finally got the chance to check-in today. I arrived early Sunday morning to grab a hot Caffe Latte and a Choco Croissant. Both items were good, however, I wish my croissant was warm. Service was spot on. Prices were a bit pricey but expected for the area. Indoor and outdoor seats were spacious. Atmosphere was relaxing. Staff were competent and professional. Street Parking only. Overall, it's modest coffee shop."

"What a wonderful tasty ginger mint tea! This tea has a prefect blend of ginger and mint! This a fur baby friendly cafe. There is seating inside as well outside. The pasties look delicious. I didn’t try them (cutting back on my carbs). This is a friendly cafe with many locals stopping in. I enjoyed the chilled vibe here. Really cool trendy crowd. Great music with minimal noise levels. Parking is limited. Street meter parking is available if you can find parking."

"I've visited cafes on five continents, and this is among the very best. The coffee beans are exceptional, and the execution is equally good. The Americano was appropriately dense, with a wonderful balance of acidity and bitterness. No sugar or milk needed. The baked goods are of matching quality, with scones that are fittingly dense with just a hint of sweetness. Best of all is the communal nature of the spot, with patrons eager to converse. And this, my friends, can't be bought or sold. We'll be back!"

"After a morning weekend walking event in Santa Monica, I stopped by Caffe Luxxe for a coffee pick-me-up. They were temporarily closed around 11 am and had a sign up that they would reopen at noon, but they ended up opening earlier when I walked by around 11:50 am. I parked at a small street around the block since part of the street parking on the main street were blocked for construction and walked to Caffe Luxxe. A line was already formed inside that almost reached the door, but they keep the line moving. I was debating between the Caffe Shakerato ($6.75 for 8 oz, which has espresso and dark chocolate) and the Caffe Nico ($7.50 for 8 oz, which has espresso and cinnamon), but ultimately decided on the Caffe Shakerato. I was appreciative that they were cool with using my reusable tumbler (as I continue on my quest to avoid disposable plastic). This chilled drink was so good, a delicious blend of coffee and chocolate!"

"Today was my first time to Caffe Luxxe. I ordered a regular cappuccino and a chocolate croissant. Both were excellent, the croissant especially was much better than what I’d expect from a coffee shop. It was one of my favorite chocolate croissants in recent memory. The cappuccino was also delicious, just the right amount of coffee flavor to milk. The milk art was wonderfully done. Service was efficient and friendly. The location was also very clean and modern."
