This place holds a special kind of nostalgia for me. I used to come here as a young boy when it was…read moreMarineland, and over the years I've eaten at the restaurants, stayed at the hotel, and now I find myself back for something simple: coffee at Sea Beans. I love sitting in the lounge area near the fireplace, sometimes journaling, and today I played cards with my daughter there. It was a quiet, grounding kind of afternoon . But what I really want to highlight is the staff at Sea Beans. Today's experience was with Izabella and Sam, and last week I was helped by Austin, who was just as kind. I have a lot of tattoos, and I'm used to encountering judgment in certain spaces because of it. I didn't feel that once here. I felt genuinely welcomed, and that matters more than people realize. What stood out most is that the kindness didn't feel performative. It felt natural, like these are just people who treat others well as a baseline, not as a service tactic. There's a real shortage of that in the world right now. When you receive food, coffee, or even just a smile from someone who's in a good place themselves, you feel that energy transfer., I feel it clearly here. Grateful for the experience, and grateful to Terranea for consistently being a place where I feel like I belong. The coffee and Gelato is amazing. Thank you so very much.

Talk about a hidden gem!…read more located inside the terranea resort! they have a free parking lot and great seating inside. The space has so much room with any kind of treat or drink you'd ever want during your stay. Service was great. Everyone was so kind and sweet. Made our drinks so fast. Apple Butter Latte with Almond milk was so good, matcha had a good flavor but was a bit grainy. Nothing they can't fix easily. Will absolutely be back for the rest of those drinks!!

That said, my wife got the vanilla latte because she wanted something while we were out and she gave me a sip. After that, I went straight in line to order it. No joke. It was that good. My wife said this place had AMAZING coffee and I didn't believe her, but (don't tell her I said this) she was right. This place is way better than any Starbucks, Coffee Bean, *insert any corporate chain with overpriced and only decent coffee. While my office is right next door, I actually may decide to pop in from time to time since it does seem to be worth it. It lives up to the hype 100%.

I am a seldom coffee drinker, but on a Sunday where I felt I could use a little treat, I stopped…read moreinto Reverent. Super cute little coffee spot, I ordered the revery latte and a scone. The latte was absolutely delicious, the cinnamon and orange blossom was such a nice touch and a little bit of sweetness that made the latte absolutely a delight. Might be one of the best lattes I've ever had. The scone was tasty as well, dough felt very fresh and like a true biscuit, I enjoyed my stop here and I will definitely be back.

Bada Coffee is an independent coffee shop located in Torrance, at the Plaza Mayor Shopping Center…read more It combines Korean Café' looks and taste and it even has a robot to make your coffee, but have no fear, there are people there to help out. The place is ever so cute. It is spotless. The service is great. Even the robot is adorable. We love their Mango mango and all of their lattes are great. Their espresso is perfect. I wish it was open a bit later. We often end up there near closing. But it is one of our favorite coffee shops in the South Bay. It is fun, the prices are fair and again, they have a robot. They close at 6 pm so get there. Please stay open until 7, we will come. The attention to detail in every cup is consistent and amazing. You will love it.

The space is a little small for the demand of this shop & the parking can be less than ideal. Matcha is known to be light and sweet and their banana cream matcha is nice and light and quite strong banana in a good way. Their ube cold foam also balances the perfect amount of nutty sweetness and cream. I went for their most recent POV husband event and this custom drink for the event was by far their best (simple agave vanilla cold foam matcha) and I hope they bring it back for the permanent menu

I tried the chrome and banana lattes and I felt the banana wasn't overly sweet, I really liked the cold foam on the chrome one too! The coffee was pretty solid, the baristas were all friendly as well. My only issue with this cafe is that the line wrapped around the store, but the only menu faced the door away from the line or right up at the counter. When waiting that long, I feel it helps to actually see the menu before I order and wish it was more accessible. The one menu on the wall was not the full menu just the featured drinks which was somewhat helpful.

Tasty ice cream next to some even better views nearby…read more Went to grab some ice cream before checking out some sunset views. You can do a split scoop and they allow for samples. Staff were pleasant and patient as we decided what to get. Ended up getting the mint n chip and pistachio. Both flavors had a natural taste to it, which was definitely appreciated compared to the typical artificial tastes. On the other side of the street you have some pretty cool views - so one stop for both dessert and a sunset. Would come back!

It could be store bought horchata mix for all I know but it is uuuhhhhhMAAYYYZZZIINNGGG!!!! It hits everytime!!

This location is much smaller with the most horrid parking spots known to man. & with the traffic on Crenshaw.... Phew good luck. Anyways love my dirty horchata!!

Caffe Tre Venezie is a very popular local cafe and it was fairly crowded on a weekday at 9 AM…read more [Parking]: Easy and free parking in a fairly large plaza. [Atmosphere]: There's an outdoor patio area and the interior decors include wallpaper with buildings in Italy, a shelf with Ferris cars and children's books, and pictures of Italian cars hanging on the wall. Behind the counter is a poster of the 25th anniversary of The Godfather. [Menu]: Yelp's top highlighted items are Rustico, Caprese, and Cotto. Breakfast panini is only served from open to 11 AM. The cafe also sells coffee, gelato (six different flavors), salads, affogato, and croissants (plain, cream, nutella, and apricot). I had a cup of house brewed coffee and the drink wasn't quite on the same level as other third-wave coffee shops in the South Bay. They sell coffee beans from Danesi Caffe. *** Breakfast panini (Scrambled egg, fontina cheese, tomato a avocado - $10.95): A healthy-tasting sandwich, but it probably needed more sauce to add flavor. Bread was good. Rustico (RUSTICO: 24-month aged prosciutto di Parma smoked scamorza cheese, arugula, & white truffle extra virgin olive oil - $11.95): A solid sandwich, but it definitely lacked the "it" factor. *** A solid local cafe for anyone looking for a healthy Italian panini.

And oh my god they were absolutely delicious! wow, not a lot of places know how to make chilaquiles but this spot knows exactly what they're doing ! Wow! I prefer green salsa but they have them in red too. The salsa is the right about of spicy and citrusy flavors! It means something when I say their chilaquiles are FIRE ! The birria added for $7 is totally worth it , the right delicious citrusy amazing flavor ! The coffee was so yumyy, sweet and crafty artsy with that beautiful design on it ! The service was wonderful , the Miss was very attentive and kind , the hospitality, loved it all!!! it wasn't too crowded, they do close at 1 pm but I loved it ; and I will definitely come back for more ! Highly recommend it ! It's in a nice cute spot in Rolling Hills PV! They have outside seating , prices are really good , I'm happy ! 10/10 loved it ! 10 stars ! Good job !

There is a crane machine like place next door. +Cashier / Atmosphere: This is the cutest little place! They have 2 medium sized tables with lounge like seats and plushies! Although, you can sit anywhere outside or walk around the limited stores. +Drinks: 1. Nara (boba) milk tea - Is probably their best item. My brother gets this one all the time. 2. Blueberry matcha with oatmilk - Unfortunately, this is a hard pass for me. The blueberry tasted good, but the matcha is very powdery. I even mixed it together and it just wasn't for me. Would definitely skip. I personally wouldn't get the matcha, but it is nice they include fruit in their drinks. They have a variety of soda pop fizz drinks, milk teas green / thai / brown sugar, smoothies, fresh milk, fruit teas, fresh teas, signature drinks, cheese foam, matcha, and coffee. They have some cute names for drinks too! Nice place to stop by for boba / fruit tea drinks. I would probably just stick to the milk, fruit, or regular teas here.

I would definitely say this is a place. You've gotta stop at. They've got really great sandwiches…read more They've got bagels. They've all kinds of great snack snacks but I had to come here for a couple of shots of espresso because I had a long drive, but I sat in the outdoor seating, which was super comfortable. The service was great. I absolutely love the flavor, my coffee and a dark signature flavor. If you're in this area, you've gotta stop by and try out some of the stuff they have here me I'm an espresso junkie so you know what's up with me but don't pass this place up. Great seating friendly service delicious snacks knock them out.

Java Wave is right on the corner, next door to Lunada Kitchen, on the right. I used to come to…read morethis same exact location when it was St. Honore. Even though they didn't replace the awning, it's an entirely different vibe. The food and drink taste much better than the previous restaurant. Even before you step inside, the food and drink menu are posted on the window. That's why I noticed they open at 7AM and offer breakfast items. It's a very casual atmosphere. They sell freshly baked goods and have a tiny display of individual sized packages of potato chips. You pay and take your drink order at the register. Food is delivered to your table. I ordered an oat milk latte and avocado toast. The avocado toast was freshly made. Outside of the unripened avocados, it tasted pretty good. The bread was toasted. There's plenty of seating outdoors, mostly tables and chairs that seat four. There are also a couple outdoor couches that seat 2-3 comfortably. There are umbrellas to shade from the sun. Staff are friendly. First come, first served. Parking: Plenty of free, shared parking.
