We stopped by Bluestone Lane on the Fourth of July weekend, so we expected a long wait because the café was packed. To our surprise, we were seated almost immediately at a clean table, even though we were with a child. The service was friendly, attentive, and everything came out much faster than we expected. The food looked just as good as it tasted. The smoked salmon and avocado toast was fresh and perfectly balanced, the spinach breakfast wrap was light but filling, and the yogurt bowl with fresh berries made a great addition to the meal. The coffee was excellent, and the iced matcha was refreshing on a warm day. The atmosphere is bright, relaxed, and perfect for a slow breakfast or brunch near the beach. Even with a full house, the staff stayed organized and never made us feel rushed. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Manhattan Beach.

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.

Ag1 smoothie
Pauline T.

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
Jewels C.

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 :/

First & Last time for this place - ordered an Iced Long Black Coffee with half & half and there was no cream in the coffee or in the bag.

We started with a coffee and café latte, which were just okay. We wanted to order the ceviche, but it was unfortunately unavailable. Eggs Benedict with Ham: Not worth the $19 price tag. The egg wasn't very runny, and the overall flavors were nothing special. Belgian Waffle: Met expectations--a safe choice. Breakfast Pita: Essentially a breakfast burrito in pita bread form. Very solid and served with a great hot sauce. The spiced hashbrowns were also a very nice touch. Overall, the menu felt stronger on the Mexican side than the Mediterranean. Unfortunately, the hot sauce ended up being the most flavorful part of our meal. If I were to return, I'd stick to one of the Mexican dishes. Parking: Metered street parking, which can be difficult to find during peak meal times.

From the moment we walked in, the vibrant, rustic-chic atmosphere set the perfect tone for a memorable evening out with a group.The food was phenomenal--every dish was bursting with flavor, creative, and perfectly prepared for sharing. However, what truly made the night special for us was our waitress, Angel. She provided top-notch hospitality from start to finish. Angel was incredibly warm, attentive to our whole table, and highly knowledgeable about the menu, guiding us toward some fantastic choices. Her friendly energy completely elevated our dining experience.Between the delicious food, the great beachside vibes, and Angel's exceptional service, this was easily one of the best meals of our trip.

The place is really cute, clean and just a little upscale - great for locals and visitors alike. As we seated, we ordered our drinks. They were all great and quickly served. They do know how to make a nice, dirty martini. We started with the house made focaccia and cheddar biscuits. That focaccia was warm, light and delicious with butter. Everyone loved it. Then, the biscuits showed up and stole the show. Order the biscuits. I ordered the sea scallops dish, very tasty and light. The other standout on the table was the Monday night special of fried chicken. My peer and boss split that dish and it was plenty. Half of a chicken, perfectly battered and fried! For dessert, we all shared the cheesecake and budino. Very cute place for brunch events as well. All of the staff were very good and multiple people helped serve the table. Go there, get some. Life is too short for boring food.

So it's good for a large group or if you have any pick eaters/children. I ordered: Fried tofu - crispy shell and soft inside, but texture aside, the taste was a bit off. The sauce helped make up for it, but it wouldn't be something I ordered again. Roti - the curry was very sweet which surprised me. I've had this dish elsewhere and usually the curry is spicy-sweet. The roti was flaky! Strawberry bingsoo - had more syrup than I'm used to for bingsoo. Otherwise my favorite dish I tried here. It's their prerogative, but I think this place would do better with a more focused menu. Based on the other reviews, there's clearly some star dishes people routinely order so it might be cost effective for them to pare down whatever isn't doing as well. If I'm in the area, I'll give them another try and see if the dishes mentioned in the reviews are better than what I ordered.
