    Cute little casual eatery right outside the Helms Bakery area. If you want a sit down meal but don't want to spend too much money, this is a good choice. Most of the restaurants inside the Helms Bakery area are slightly pricier than Breakway. Small and cute dining room with semi self service - you order at the counter first and then you get your order when they call your number. We love their Shakshuka and Chicken sandwiches. Coffees are reasonably priced and decent too. Service is friendly and polite. Overall a great casual eatery!

    Great beautiful matcha!  so delicious

    So we came to Culver City and waited for IKEA open but they didn't open till 11. So I suggested lets go get breakfast at breakaway cafe. My friends first time . She ordered the breakfast plate and I ordered their burrito and matcha . All of the food amazing their Matcha latte was so delicious made perfectly! Staff was amazing! Jackson so nice and answered our questions . Cythia and Teal great serves! Great staff !can't say it enough go and try! And say hi to the staff ! It's always nice to have great service with a smile

    BLAT with Turkey , absolutely delicious.
    Brad H.

    I really enjoyed the BLAT sandwich. I had them add their smoked turkey to it. The avocado was extremely fresh and ripe, the tomato was perfect, the bread was toasted just right, and the potatoes with dill were divine. They were very fast for a to go meal.

    Hot Pumpkin Spice Latte & Sausage Breakfast Burrito
    Ricardo V.

    What to Get/Not to Get: The Salted Maple Matcha tasted healthy like drinking sweet grass. The hot Pumpkin Spice Latte is a must get option, and actually may have been strong with caffeine as I felt energetic. The Sausage Breakfast Burrito was subtle in flavor, so it may be hard to recommend for some. Customer Service: Very good. Pay first, and they'll bring your drinks/food to you after. Bus your own table after Price: Approximately $32.60, not including tip for 2 people Ambience: Indoor/Outdoor Seating. Good place to read and/or study too Overall: Good Experience

    BLAT with crispy potatoes
    Francis V.

    We loved our food. I had the BLAT with crispy potatoes and my daughter had the breakfast burrito. Service was fast and the employees were really nice. I wasn't expecting our food to be ready so fast but it came out hot and fresh. There are plenty of tables for dine in, I saw a lot of people working while eating- I assume work or school because they had their laptops out. Not a loud place and very comfortable. Metered street parking, I didn't see a parking lot. Prices are reasonable.

    Turkey sausage burrito with no cheese / lettuce substitute

    Delicious burrito and friendly service. It has a family/local/neighborhood feel with the plates and delivery feeling authentic as if you're eating in your own living room.

    Found this place on Google. Had good reviews so we figure we try it since we were near. Free parking lot next to the restaurant. I got the BLAT. It was good! Fresh ingredients. I get a free side, either potatoes or salad. I got the potatoes because the cashier said it was the most popular. Next time I'm gonna try the Shakauka. I would have gotten it if I would have known about it on the Yelp reviews. ---------------- You order first at counter then pick your own seats. Cashier gives you a number for your order. Server will bring your food to your table. You get your own napkins, drinking water, coffee lids, and to-go boxes. There is 1 restroom for both genders. Tables are very big for big groups but we had 4 people and had to combine tables.

    This is a very cute cafe I stopped in to grab a coffee after yoga. I got a regular vanilla latte with almond milks it was $7.48 well worth it and delicious. The menu is very limited so if you enjoy turkey bacon or meant substitute I wouldn't come but the coffee is good! And I couldn't get a croissant today but they looked delicious. The baristas were super friendly will for sure come back for the coffee specifically.

    Turkado  Swiss Sando

    My experience for lunch at this cafe was so so. We split 2 sandwiches, one was a pulled chicken with pesto on ciabatta; the other a turkey sandwich with alfalfa sprouts & avocado. For both sandwiches, the ciabatta bread was pretty flat, not crispy on the outside, and lacked flavor as well. Considering it's a $20 sandwich I expected a bit better. The pulled chicken was very very dry and then to compensate it was overly saturated in a mayo-y pesto. Not the best. The turkey sandwich was similarly bland. One thing I did really like was their side of crispy potatoes. They were super crisp on the outside and soft & fluffy inside. Perfectly seasoned with just the right amount of salt. Funny enough I think that was the star of the dish. You also have to bus your own dishes. Was not necessarily expecting that and especially considering 2 sandwiches and 2 coffees costs $50. They have limited seating both indoor and outdoor. The food did come out pretty quickly so I was grateful for that.

    Seasonal Iced Strawberry Matcha and Iced California Dream Latte
    Samantha A.

    Amazing place! So glad I found it! I've always passed by but never seen it since it's so hidden. Honestly, the best breakfast burrito I've had, not just your regular breakfast burrito, was not greasy, had great taste, and was very filling. Iced strawberry matcha latte was great! And so was the iced latte...! The ambiance was great, sitting next to the window and getting the sun, and the music was nice; definitely will sit outside next time! The service wasn't super crazy; we definitely went during brunch, so it felt a bit hectic. Other than that, they were all super nice! and definitely recommend coming here and would come again!

    Iced matcha latte
    Jeremy S.

    Located across the street from the Helms Design District, this cafe has a bustling and vibrant breakfast atmosphere. We just got drinks, and I ordered an iced matcha latte with oat milk ($7.25). Our drinks were prepared quickly. My latte had a nice balance of matcha and milk; neither overpowered each other. There wasn't seating inside for two, so we just had our drinks at the Helms Design District because there was nice outdoor patio furniture. The ambience outside is calming and great for hanging out or reading a book.

    shakshuka
    Sophia L.

    cute brunch spot in culver city, great for a quick bite :) i got the shakshuka and loved the bread, it was perfectly toasted and went great with the tomato sauce. i appreciated that the eggs were actually runny as well! unfortunately felt that the tomato sauce was underseasoned, i would've appreciated more depth since i think it was lacking compared to other shakshukas i've had. this kind of just tasted like canned tomato with some spice, i was overloading on hot sauce here. more realistically a 3.5 star review but i would also look into trying the brie jam croissant

    Avocado Tartine

    I met a friend here for a late lunch on a Sunday. We arrived around 1:30 PM and had no problem…read moregetting a table, but I hear there is a wait during peak hours! There is also free parking underground in the building! We started by splitting a bottle of Brut ($28) which came with 2 juices to mix. I'd probably skip the guava next time... it came as a super thick puree that didn't mix into the bubbly, even with stirring. But they offered orange, cranberry, grapefruit, lychee, and others I'm sure I'm forgetting! The food menu and drink menus were great, with almost an overwhelming number of options. I decided on the shrimp and ricotta frittata, my friend ordered the jambalaya, and we split the house-baked coffee cake. You can upgrade anything with bacon to include Jurassic Pork (thick-cut bacon cooked in brown sugar) so why not? Everything was beautifully presented and tasted delicious, and the portions were large. I loved the little details on everything... egg-shaped salt and pepper shakers and cute little chickens on my side dish of sour cream. We also noticed that the servers were all super nice, attentive, and they just seemed to enjoy working there and to be having fun. One of them recommended bars we could go to after they closed, and we saw a group of them hanging out at the same bar. We just picked up on good vibes overall. Breakfast Republic is at a great location in Downtown Culver City and you can make an afternoon or day of it, with everything else in walking distance.

    Breakfast Republic has become one of my favorite breakfast spots. The food is consistently…read moredelicious, the atmosphere is lively and welcoming, and the menu offers something for everyone. I'm especially obsessed with their sensational and strong Bloody Marys--perfectly crafted and packed with flavor. The shrimp and yellow polenta is a standout dish that's rich, comforting, and unique. Their breakfast burritos are generously portioned and always satisfying, and the lattes are expertly made and the perfect way to start the day. Whether you're meeting friends, treating family, or simply enjoying a leisurely weekend brunch, Breakfast Republic delivers a fun and memorable dining experience every time. Highly recommended!
