I got a medium with three flavors, and I chose dark chocolate, mint chip, and hazelnut, and they were a perfect combination. So creamy, so delicious, so perfect to end the evening! For the price I paid it was reasonable because of the amount that was there and I'm basing it on pricing back home which would have been similar for this. I was truly stuffed after I ate this and probably would have been satisfied with a small but I wanted the three flavors to mix in together. I was looking for something like this and just happened to find it as I was walking down the street. Highly recommend to stop here, you won't regret it.

The aesthetic inside is really nice, clean, sunny, and with a few spots to sit and enjoy your drink or get some work done. They have a good variety of drinks, plus a few seasonal options as well. I got the Earl Grey matcha latte, and my husband went with the banana cream matcha latte. Both drinks came out pretty quickly! And they were SO good. I love Earl Grey in my matcha, and Otto Tea Shoppe nailed the flavor. The matcha was earthy and a great green color. My husband really enjoyed his banana matcha (and so did I... wife tax hehe). The banana flavor was super enjoyable and clearly not artificial. I'll definitely be back to try more of their drinks!

Stopped by Gum Tree in Hermosa Beach and really enjoyed the cozy, welcoming feel inside. It's a…read morenice spot to sit, relax, and take a break from walking around the area. I had a coffee, which was good and hit the spot, and my friend ordered the grilled cheese with a fruit plate - simple, comforting, and nicely done. Service was good and staff friendly. One cool detail out front is a small wishing tree where you can hang tags, which adds a fun, thoughtful touch to the place. The gift shop next door was bright and festive, perfect for the holidays, and a great spot to pick up some last-minute, unique gifts you don't see everywhere. Overall, a really pleasant café and shop combo that's worth checking out.

I used to really enjoy the atmosphere, but over time things changed. Some employees started…read moretreating me poorly as a customer, and that didn't feel right. I'm an adult woman, almost 48, and I don't appreciate being told how I should behave in a disrespectful way. At one point, an employee even told me not to talk to other customers--even when they were the ones starting conversations with me. That felt like bullying. Thankfully, that employee is no longer there, but the overall attitude still hasn't fully improved. I've been bringing my two dogs with me for a long time without any issues. Recently, I was told I can't use the bathroom anymore--even just to quickly wash my hands before eating. I understand rules about dogs not being allowed in certain areas, and that was explained properly, but the way everything was handled felt unnecessary and unwelcoming. Because of this shift in attitude, I've noticed other customers have stopped coming as well, like Alex and Trisha. Some people have even mentioned that the overall environment and customer treatment aren't as good as they used to be. It's disappointing, because this used to be a place I really liked. Now it feels like the attitude has changed, and not in a good way.

I really loved your cafe and your book! Will definitely be back again :))…read more The ambience and vibe was very cute too

You don't write because you want to say something, you write because you have something to say…read more Let's begin this elite review. :D The Source Cafe (est 2017) is a popular and fun little breakfast spot right on Pier Avenue in Hermosa Beach. It has a cool vibe, lots of fun things on the menu, healthy smoothies, and baked pastries. Interior design and layout were brilliant with abundant natural light. We came on an early weekend morning to grab breakfast; it was my first time at this cafe. I was warmly greeted by a male staff with a smile. I ordered an iced coffee and avocado toast. Both items were solid. Breakfast AT was delightful and healthy. Services were spot on. Prices were fair for the area. Plenty of street metered parking. Overall, this cafe is a good spot for breakfast. I recommend it.

But I went in today at 5:10pm on a Sunday and Mauricio had a great personality + customer service + latte skills.

I really enjoyed it and would repurchase again…read more I love Manhattan Beach but I definitely have a love/ hate relationship - sometimes parking can be a pain, especially on the weekend and/ or when I just want to pop in places and pop out. Regardless, I still keep going and will continue to because I love this city and the views are incredible! I've been to other Caffe Luxxe locations and this one has the same aesthetic, which I love. Staff are very friendly. There was a line but it went by fast. Parking on the weekend is hard to find, at least in my experience. During the week, it's much easier to find parking, especially if you go in the morning.

Whether you're stopping in for a quick coffee or hanging out for a bit, Hi-Fi Espresso is the kind of place you'll want to come back to again and again. Highly recommend supporting this local spot.

It's located in a strip mall on PCH near the Dodgers mural. There was a pretty steady flow of traffic but the line moves quickly. You can look at all their pastries and tarts on display while you wait. There isn't much of an interior to sit. I tried the green apple tart, fruit tart, cream puff, and white chocolate strawberry cake. Everything was delicious, and surprisingly awesome for being totally gluten free. My favorites are the tarts, with the crust being the standout. The cake was extremely light as if eating a cloud. I will definitely be coming back. There's so much more on the menu to try out, including drinks and breakfast sandwiches, there's no doubt I will be getting another dessert to go along with it.

UPDATE: I WAS…read moreWRONG. THE FLAT WHITE IS NOT GREAT. IT IS AVERAGE NOW. Also... I stopped coming here a lot just because the friendliness feels like a big hit or miss. Not sure what it is or if its me personally for whatever reason, but, despite being super friendly 100% of the time, the owner just acts kind of rude and unfriendly to me for literally no reason at all. I promise I don't smell bad and I brush my teeth before I come. I smell really good. I promise! I think the owner is probably on some hipster nonsense bs energy. Cool man...yeah man... It's a shame because its literally the owner who is the rude one in my experience, not any of his staff. His staff never gives me any of his same stinky vibes. P.U. dude... Sorry, but I don't need to feel tension or your bad energy when I'm paying you like $7 for a flat white that takes you 30 seconds to make for me. Sorry to be such a big bother for asking about some of your food items to see if they are vegan so I could possibly pay you more money to buy a food product from you. SORRY FOR TRYING TO SUPPORT YOUR BUSINESS BY GIVING YOU BUSINESS WITH MY MONEY!!! SORRY!!! Okay?!! :( When you started rolling your eyes or exhaling that passive aggressive breath out because I was such a bother to you, it was in that moment, yesterday morning, that I left Gitana knowing that I wouldn't come back. From now on, I'll go buy the $7 flat white at Caffe Luxxe in MB located the exact same distance from my place. They do not have delicious food like you do, but they also don't have any of your attitude. Positive attitude to your friendly customers is WAY MORE IMPORTANT than sticking to your pretentiousness and icky, terrible vibes. Sorry if you woke up on the wrong side of the bed and decided to be Oscar the Grouch to me while I was Elmo. Elmo sad now. Elmo REAL SAD. :( :( :( Caffe Luxxe it is because, even though I kind of like your café better, I like being treated with respect WAY MORE than I will ever like your coffee. It is what it is...
