"Food - Pastries could be better. The coffee was good. The latte went too cold too soon, or was it supposed to? Atmosphere - There were many people on laptops, but it was very noisy, on the other hand."

"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."

"Bitter. A coffee can have any taste but bitter. The barista was not good. I couldn't finish my Gibraltar. They only have a dark blend (they say medium-dark) for espresso or espresso based drinks. Many of the reviews sound great but the quality here is comparable to the shop across the road, Starbucks."

"I can’t say enough good things about this place. Their coffee is stellar and their pastries are to die for! Great atmosphere for casual meetings with business associates or friends. Treat yourself to this place…it’s worth it!"

"super chill coffee spot in santa monica serving up some serious bean to cup brews. music playlist is shoegaze, alternative/indie, dreamy chill. american musician Alex G was on when i was there. baristas were knowledgeable, ingredients mostly made inhouse, and i was left pretty much to chill, do some work and not be bothered. what a gem in santa monica. will be back!"
