    My FAVORITE brunch/ quick coffee/ matcha spot in Manhattan Beach!! ( or even a cocktail ) Absolutely amazing people who work there : Uirel , Edward and others. Australian coastal vibe... Love Bluestone lane

    Iced Vanilla Latte
    Briseida N.

    First time trying Bluestone Coffee and it was so good! I came in after a run on the strand and I got an Iced Vanilla Latte with oat milk. They make their vanilla syrup in house which I loved! The service was good and fast. It's a cute restaurant, I'll definitely have to come back to try the food. It is on the pricier side but totally worth it!

    Mushroom grilled cheese
    Khim Y.

    Excellent food, great service, and reasonable prices. We were initially attracted to the waiting crowd outside another breakfast place, but after comparing the menu and reviews we abandoned our place in line there to come here, and boy were we glad we did! This place is bustling with positive energy, young and friendly waiters, and a wonderful menu. We ordered the mushroom grilled cheese, sunrise burrito, and spiced chicken wrap. Also got the iced blueberry matcha and latte. Everything tasted amazing, and we liked the latte so much we got a bag of beans to go! I believe this place is Australian -- go Aussies!

    Saturday morning service was -100000/10. It was incredibly busy, and it felt like the server had completely forgotten about us until I got up and asked for an update on our food almost 45 min after ordering. Avocado toast was soggy as if it had been sitting out for hours. BL big brekkie was served on toast, also soggy from sitting under the flavorless spinach and mushroom mix. Bacon on the dish tasted worse than what you'd get at a cheap model continental breakfast. The plain black coffee served in a glass jar with no handle. Imagine my surprise when I nearly burned my fingers off picking it up to pour in the cup. The ice in my husband's cold brew was floating at the top half melted when it came to the table and made it horribly watered down. Sadly disappointing experience. Won't be back.

    Matcha Latte
    Melissa H.

    Stopped by this little coffee shop in Manhattan Beach and had a great experience. The soft chili scramble with avocado was a slam dunk for me! It was super flavorful, beautifully presented, and a really generous portion. The truffle cheese sandwich was also tasty and comforting. Drinks were a mix: the matcha latte and affogato were both good, while the PB protein smoothie was just okay. The ambiance is bright and relaxing, and the staff is friendly, which makes the whole visit feel easy and enjoyable. Would definitely come back for the food and vibes.

    Wonderful place for quick service or table service the option is yours. We love the drink selections for kids. There's more than just hot chocolate which we appreciate. My kids devoured the keen green smoothie (banana, mango, kale, chia seeds, almond butter). The athletes burrito was delicious and so lean and healthy. We also like the breakkie board. 1/2 granola yogurt parfait and 1/2 avo toast. Now on to the beach we left so satisfied.

    I was able to get an affogato at 7 PM, which I really appreciated since most cafés stop serving coffee much earlier in the day. The space is brightly lit and comfortable, with self-serve water and napkins already set out on each table, clearly designed to keep things moving smoothly. It's nice to have options in the area where not everything open in the evening is just a bar or restaurant. The affogato was good, and my boyfriend enjoyed his espresso, describing it as muted in a good way and nicely balanced. They close at 8 PM, which makes it a great early-mid evening stop.

    Iced Strawberry Matcha

    I stopped by in desperate need of a little pick me up drink to sip on my drive home after a long beach day. I went with the strawberry matcha and immediately knew it was going to be bad just by looking at the color. PSA: Matcha should NEVER be yellow-ish green. The bar is in hell for everyone saying that their matcha is good. I was barley able to drink half of it before I threw it away.. It tasted super artificial and the strawberry was non existent.

    After walking up and down for a while I needed a cold drink. I walked in to this place and immediately was greeted by the friendliest employees here. After looking at their menu I decided to get a smoothie that sounded delicious. And it sure was. Perfectly made. I enjoyed every sip. The menu has variety of smoothies, coffee drinks, food items and more. It's a cafe that's offers a lot. Beautiful spacious with lots of seating. Great customer service. A must try when in the area. I'll be back again for sure.

    Berry Brekkie Smoothie
    Shani Y.

    I came here on a Sunday for lunch and there was no wait. Service was a bit slow, but friendly. There was only one bathroom which was dirty and old looking. Definitely did not match their nice blue interior. Berry Brekkie Smoothie (3/5): refreshing, but berries had a very light flavor, tasted watered down Spiced Chicken Wrap (4/5): changed the kale to arugula and definitely a good alternative, the arugula was fresh with the vinaigrette, chicken was pretty good

    Same great taste and ambience as a few years ago when we discovered this Manhattan Beach gem. Uriel and Lennon welcomed us back from Indiana with open arms and sat us on the cozy patio. Amy ordered a cappuccino which Lennon topped off with a signature European cocoa finish that made the drink even more special. We split the athlete's burrito and a side of pancakes and berries. Compliments to the chef. Thanks for making our spring break memory one to last a lifetime! Cheers!

    Athlete's Burrito
    Cinthya B.

    You feel seen at Bluestone--definitely a place where every customer matters. I received wonderful treatment even when it got busy. It was great to have a seat towards the back and still get all the lighting from outside. The athlete's burrito was perfect post-run and I got to have the other half later :) The variety of smoothie options stood out to me for the future!

    Iced black coffee no creamer :/

Drink orders were taken quickly and everyone found a delicious cocktail to begin. We ordered the spinach artichoke dip and fried deviled eggs to start. Everyone loved the dip as there was hardly any left by the time I eyeballed it. That was ok though because I was focused on those eggs. I love me a devlled egg and had never tried a lightly fried one before. The quick fry does heat the entire bite up so just be mindful. It was good but I'd likely try another appetizer first. Then, we got down to the entree orders. They do offer a bistro plate that has a 4 oz filet on top of a little piece of garlic toast. It comes with a side of soup, corn chowder, and a bistro salad. I have to admit, it was a perfect size for me. The corn chowder was creamy and delicious, not too much roasted corn and just perfect amount of heavy cream ans spices. My filet was perfectly cooked, medium rare. I asked and received some creamy horseradish for it, which was delicious. The bistro salad had an Asian vinaigrette and was perfectly crunchy to pair with the filet. My peer ordered the Reuben sandwich which looked pretty amazing. Another ordered the meatloaf special on a bed of mashed with gravy which also looked incredible. We split two "butter cakes" which were so good. Yellow cake with an external crunch of sugar crystals, topped with a berry compote and whipped cream. Now, THAT was a standout among desserts. Go there. Get some. Life is too short for boring food. The staff were all incredible as well, very attentive. This place may become a "must do" while we're in town moving forward so keep it up, Nick!

After eating so many heavy meals two times a day for 4 days, wanted/needed something lighter. Started with the yogurt plate which had nice fresh fruit of apples, grapes, blackberries and bananas along with granola and honey. This was good. We also had the avocado toast - generous portions. It looked like it was one full avocado on two slices of hearty toast with green goddess dressing. Had 2 poached eggs (perfect), 2 slices of crips bacon (also perfectly crisp) and a side of fruit - this had the same as the yogurt plate but also had figs and plums!. The french omelette is traditional, delicate, simple and delicious. The side salad is quintessential French - greens with a light dressing. It also had the same side of fruit. Lovely way to start the day!
