My last coffee trip to L.A. was kind of disappointing, to be honest. Menotti's was a bright spot on that trip though! I stopped in for a cortado before walking the beach and ir was delightful. read more

Menotti's Coffee Stop - a man sitting at a table - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Venice, California

Coffee tastes fine, but they have attitude, so rude. Need to learn how to do a customer service. read more

Tiny little coffee shop on Windward just before you get to the Venice Boardwalk. It has seating inside for maybe 6 to 10 people. But plenty of outdoor seating. The coffee here is very good and very expensive today I had a green tea instead of coffee. 12 ounces of water and one jasmine tea bag for five dollars. Rent is very expensive in Venice. So many regulars come here that the workers know exactly what they're having and have it ready for them You will have one of the best coffees ever here. read more

Quick recap: -          Coffee: Excellent (5/5) -          Portion size: Average -          Service: Order at the counter; Nice staff -          Environment: "Your small bakery" + Outdoor sitting -          $: Expensive ( I guess average for LA) -          Perks: N/A More details: Excellent coffee, but a bit pricy (Lg Filtered coffee $4, Cappuccino $4, Latte $5, +$1 for milk alternatives). There is a large outdoors patio in front of the small coffee shop. Overall? Very strong coffee option. A bit expensive, but worth it. Nice staff. read more

Menotti's Coffee Stop - Menu - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Venice, California

Never had a Spanish latte before in my life, so this was very pleasant to try on my first time! I'm not sure if they currently have special hours during this COVID period, but I thought they closed pretty early for a coffee shop, so we had to make sure we were able to pick this up before 2pm on a Saturday. The coffee was surprisingly more on the creamy side, but also rich! The cinnamon is pretty strong in this and my friend compares this to a horchata. I would say it's pretty good. Kind of too sweet to my liking, but still very nice to try! read more

Menotti's Coffee Stop - Spanish Latte to-go - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Venice, California

I was in the area and was desperate for a Matcha Latte. I love trying new/trendy/popular places. I saw this place has amazing reviews and decided to stop by. This place is right by the beach. There aren't any views of the ocean but you can easily walk to the beach and rent a bike to ride on the beach which is actually what I did. The aesthetics of this place looks soo cute online but when I went it seemed like a dirty little coffee shop. I love supporting small businesses but this place is so dirty and didn't look like the photos that much when I came. Maybe I am being dramatic because I am a clean freak, but I wouldn't come here unless I had no other options. The coffee seems really basic here honestly, I was expecting more clean/good options. They don't have any organic milk, maybe the cow milk but not any planted based organic milks. Honestly I expected to much from the reviews. There isn't any parking on the street since this is in a shopping center, I parked near the beach, 3 hours for $10. Good Luck getting Street Parking here. The customer service was pretty nice, I took some photos of the interior/coffee. Don't worry I asked for consent from the employees before taking/uploading photos of them for my interview! read more

This is specifically for the Venice Location on windward. Service was great, no complaints there. Espresso machine was broken/being worked on (not a big deal at all) but the drip coffee that was offered was not okay to serve, it was so damn acidic and very disappointing, I even tried to doctor it up with some cream and sugar but had to trash it after trying to power through it. Waste of 4 bucks. Might come and try a cappuccino/latte at this location (they've been pretty solid on the Washington location). The Menotti's location in Tokyo Japan is the best hands down, the locations here on the west side needs to step their game up. read more

One the one hand, it's a coffee shop. This gem sits at the entrance to Venice Beach and could likely be the best welcome experience you could ask for. Drink offerings are standard fare, but they use top beans, top equipment, and top baristas to make your coffee experience top notch. Best $4 I spent today in a while. read more

Very cozy inside the cafe with a few tables. The baristas were friendly and the bees knees and Spanish latte tasted so good! read more

Menotti's Coffee Stop - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Venice, California

Popped in this morning on our walk to the beach and it did not disappoint. Menotti's IS located on a very busy street, but luckily there was no rush (around 8am). I had the Spanish latte with oat milk, and it was delicious! Perfectly sweet but not overwhelming, they also offer a vegan Spanish latte which has a coconut based condensed milk. Both baristas were super sweet, and it was the perfect start to my morning! read more

Half drank coffee had a fly in it. They wouldn't pour another. "I'm sorry sir that's not our problem". $6 for a cappuccino with tip and they can't make my father who's visiting from 1,000 miles away feel better about his morning coffee experience. Smdh read more

Iced spanish latte with oat milk was really really great! I'd definitely come back to try their matcha

This part of Venice is like the Wild Wild West to me. The only reason to come over here if you aren't a tourist is to come to this coffee shop IMO. :) It has the coolest vibe when you walk inside & the drinks are well done. Love the Spanish latte. Prices are high though, non dairy milks & vanilla syrup are all up-charges which can rack up fast. Employees were all laid back and had great attitudes as well. It seemed like everyone, including the customers were having a great time. The overall vibe stands out amongst the many other bland coffee shops nearby. Recommend! read more

Great coffee! There was a pretty long line that went out the door, which is always somewhat promising of a coffee shop like this one. It's located pretty much right on the beach, fantastic location. Didn't see any seating inside, but did see ample seats outside! Love the vibes. read more

The one star is not for the business. The coffe here is actually really good. But unfortunately the owner of the parking lot is charging $4 to park for one hour!!!! Greed at its best! This location was easy. You come, you stay, you realax and have your coffee (already $$ like anywhere else), but asking now to add $4 dollars more because of the parking!?? HELL NO! And street parking is restricted only to the residents. Yeah correct, it's a shit show. read more

Great coffee and great outdoor space. A perfect way to start the morning. Service was 10/10 A+. Ask for the "channel orange" and thank me later. I'll be thinking about that perfection in a cup the whole flight home yumm!! This shop is definitely worth the stop! read more

One of my lowest reviews as of late. The coffee is fine, and not the reason for the low review. The low review is for the following: the barista person who looked like she could not be bothered to take my order. The music which was so gratingly loud it was obnoxious. I get that you have a turntable and a cool sound system, but this is not soul cycle- it's a coffee house, where people would like to sit and enjoy their coffee or maybe a conversation. read more

I finally made it to Menotti's and had the rare opportunity to meet the owner. I recognized him from Chris Baca's interview and he was super humble and cool - I geeked out to my bestie because he's kinda of a BIG deal. Coffee there was delicious- treated myself to a rico and my bestie had an iced spanish latte. The owner was so cool to let me try Chris Baca's cat and cloud brew which isn't easily accessible to me in so cal and then he shared a cup of a honey note Ethiopian brew that was tasty. Such an awesome first time experience at this cafe, I hope everyone gets one too. Found street parking for free and the blonde barista was nice to explain the difference between a rico and cortado to me. Then she recommend the spanish latte to my friend who originally was just going to get an ice coffee and oh dear, she asked for whip cream lol Check out this location for good coffee. Prices and finding parking are comparable to Urth Cafe - not sure why people think it's so expensive. read more

Need knees or OG Spanish latte, can't go wrong. My go to coffee shop for any occasion.

Drove straight to Venice beach after flying DCA to LAX. Needed fresh air and desperately needed caffeine. After parking I did a quick Yelp search for coffee shops near by and Menotti's caught my eye. The shop is clean, cute, and minimalist in design. The staff is friendly and quick. The drink was perfection. I love that they have all the dairy free substitutes and their eco friendly packaging has some pizazz! read more

This is the best coffee on the west side! There's usually a line in weekend mornings but it's worth it. The shop is cute but there isn't a lot of seating inside, it's all outside. Great place to stay and watch the neighborhood. read more

Great place for lovers of a rich flavored espresso beverage. I tried the latte, which was great, but if you are looking for something with a stronger coffee flavor definitely get the cappuccino. I tried my friend's Venice Beach Cappuccino which was a bit sweet, but still delicious. It is a small place, but still has some indoor seating (no bathroom). It is probably better to grab coffee to go. I'd recommend taking your coffee and sitting on a bench to enjoy the beach scenery or walk alongside the vibrant venice shops. read more

Came here on a Saturday morning and there were only a few people in line. You're supposed to get in line on the right, order, then get in line on the left to wait for your drink and pay. I did just that, I ordered my iced latte and went over to the left. The first barista was fine but the barista who made my coffee was super unfriendly. He did not greet me or even look at me and had a straight face the entire time. Just gave me the POS to pay and slid my drink over. Did not even say the amount I had to pay, no words at all. What's weird is that I literally just saw him chatting and smiling with the people in line before me. I still said thank you afterwards and of course there was no response. I really don't mind if baristas are not super friendly or chatty, but you should acknowledge your customers at the very least. The coffee was good, but the service left a sour taste in my mouth. Will not come back or recommend to anyone. read more

Walked in for the first time for an iced coffee for myself. My wife isn't a coffee drinker but was interested in trying something. She asked James who was at the front and he was useless when asked for a recommendation. She told him that she is not a coffee drinker but does drink tea and wanted to know what he would recommend. His response was "how do you drink your tea". She answered him with "hot." And his response then was "a chai". Because they have a variety of coffee drinks on the menu, my wife was simply looking for a coffee recommendation but James was short, rude with his responses. She then reiterated that she was simply looking for a suggestion on something good that he could recommend but he was not listening or maybe having a bad day? My wife then spoke to his coworker to complete our order, which we didn't want at that point. Nonetheless James continued to rudely speak and was also told my a coworker to stop. The coffee was good! James's customer service was awful read more

5 stars for the Spanish latte. I come all the way here just to get it every time. Yes, it's quite expensive for a coffee drink but they just make it so well! Location is easy to find and there is metered street parking and a few pay-to-park lots all within walking distance. Service has always been friendly and prompt! read more

Got a chai latte and matcha latte for $12. Not from around here but found this place on Yelp. Nothing special and if anything we were disappointed in the matcha. Barely had a matcha taste. The chai came out of a box and was mixed with milk so they don't make it themselves. Felt like I could of made it myself at home for $5. read more

So good. I've been here during non-COVID times and loved the vanilla latte. They have homemade vanilla syrup. I came again recently and they're implementing a lot of good COVID precautions. They're offering online ordering on their site. I had the secret menu vanilla drink it was soo good but small. I will say the bottom of the drink had some slime like syrup. I'm hoping that was the vanilla. read more
