Service & drinks here are always good! The humans that work here are very personable and kind. They smile a lot. I love it. I order the Cafe Miel - it is delicious and hard to find other places, let alone, this good. I added the picture of food because very few people are aware of it. The vibe is good. Music playing but it's good music and not too loud. Good amount of seating, good work space, WiFi available, some outlets, one gender neutral restroom, and everything is very clean. Parking is good (ample) when I come (weekdays, am). read more

This coffee shop is close to my apartment and I have come here a couple times to work. I always get the teas here and everytime, they have been standard. The service is fast and the baristas are super friendly. The noise level is more on the louder side since there are many people here. Even though it is louder than I would like, I love that most people are here to work. It makes it so much easier to get my own work done. However, somtimes it is hard to get a seat inside since there are a lot of people, so I would recommend coming here earlier to claim your spot. It is also a bit hot in this coffee shop since there is a lot of natural light (which I LOVE), but I don't mind it too much! This is a great coffee shop to lock in and get work done. read more

I stop into Pure Bean every time I am visiting Manhattan Beach, CA! Since my last trip, I have cut coffee from my diet - but love matcha. Their matcha with almond milk is a lovely classic, highly recommend. Really can't beat quality here, no matter what you order! I really appreciate the gluten free & dairy free options. read more

Being in a strip mall is a certain win as it meant dedicated parking spaces and yes it's free! Also IYKYK, strip mall around this area was typically coming in decent size and so did the parking. Well-lit venue, plenty of seats and even abundant plugs. As expected, you could see tons of guests were studying and working. Not few even came in bigger group. Not realizing that they provided detailed version of the menu, I initially was thrown off looking at the wall menu as most of the names weren't familiar. Thanks to the helpful attendant, making me going for what she said as one of their favorites; the latte served with honey, vanilla, and cinnamon - called as miel. Being the specialist in beans as well, no doubt the coffee was of great quality. One tip, if you weren't that much into sweet, you might wanna customize it and request for less sweet. read more

There were a number of positives about visiting Pure Bean coffee today. It's a very well designed space. Spacious but not overly so. Numerous four person tables with chairs. A very nice long elevated table with lots of comfortable stools (that are way too noisy to move around, unless you pick them up). A barista that creates extremely impressive latte art (I mean seriously impressive). A very nice selection of branded merch, including the legendary Airscape coffee storage canisters (everyone should have at least one of these). AND to top it all off, an extremely extensive variety of well sourced coffee beans (including numerous single origins). The service was excellent, everyone was nice. The coffee was very good too. Pure Bean also boasts a very high tech roasting process known as Air Roasting. Honestly, the only negative thing about Pure Bean was their single origin decaf that is processed using the so called "natural" sugar cane method (IYKYK). I really can't understand why a coffee roaster who would go to such great lengths to do so many things so right, would use anything less than the "Swiss Water Process" to create their decaf. read more

Popped in today for the first time and the Cafe and its open space were very appealing.I saw people working on their laptops inside snd a group of women chatting at their outside table. We were greeted when we walked in and the Barista did a really good job at explaining and highlighting what drinks there offer. I ordered a matcha cherry blossom drink and it was nice My friend had a iced Cafe Miel , it was very nicely balanced We shared a ham And cheese baguette and they cut it in half for us. Overall very cute and definitely worth checking out read more

I came here to scrapbook with my friend and we had a lot of fun. I do like the tables and bar chairs they have set up in the center. High quality and comfortable. Workers were helpful and friendly. However, my review is purely on the coffee, which is what we're paying for after all. My friend and I thought the drinks were very mediocre. We ordered seasonal drinks, the French Toast Chai Latte & the blueberry coffee (cannot the remember name). Four shots of espresso, and I'm sorry, but we were not tasting it. My drink did not taste like French toast at all and her drink did have that nice blueberry touch but still lackluster. I don't have alternative suggestions for this particular area, but there are amazing coffee/tea houses in Koreatown. read more

Feels like a promising place where they have a good variety of high quality beans. For the time I visited, my friend ordered a latte and I ordered a honey lavender latte. My drink was good where the coffee and sweetener was well balanced. It wasn't too bitter and not overly sweet. My friend's latte was unfortunately under extracted so it ended up more sour. We were in a rush so didn't get a chance to ask to remake the drink, but hoping it'll be better in the future. read more

Actually the best lattes I've ever had. Great spot in every category. Ben and Leo are the latte goats

What??? This place opened about 3 years ago and I haven't been around in a few years and I think I found my new Favorite place for Coffee but I don't come to the beach our here anymore and it is far away.... Anyhow I really did find my new favorite place for coffee now to make excuses to come out this far for a good cup of coffee.... I ordered a Pour Over Drip with what they called a true light roast...FYI they roast their own beans in Idyllwild which is quite the distance from this location. Basically it was the Ethiopia bag I took a pic of....It's actually hard to find a lot of coffee shops that do a light roast nowadays most go with a medium to light or medium to dark roast.... BEN is the one who did my pour over and I spoke to him a really cool guy who knew a good amount about the beans and coffee and what he enjoyed as well....overall he was quite knowledgeable and I feel he loves coffee! The layout is pretty spacious and clean i sat next to the baristas because they were somewhat busy when I got there....but it's okay.... I got one more pour over because I wanted to try their Medium/Light roast as well...Pronghorn...It was pretty good as well but still prefer the first one.... 5 Stars Coffee 5 Stars Employees 5 Stars Service 5 Stars Ambiance Equals AWESOME COFFEE Shop!!!!!!! read more

They had the cutest drink names ever! It was named after famous celebrities. My sister and I both got the Gwen Stefani, which has espresso, banana milk & organic chocolate sauce. It was pretty good! I do wish there was a stronger banana flavor, but it was still tasty. It also wasn't overly sweet which I appreciated. Workers were so nice and helpful. There were plenty of tables inside and seems like a great place to study or work. I def want to come back to try other drinks like their Lindsay Lohan matcha! read more

Let me first say that I'm incredibly picky about my morning Cappuccino. I came here bc it was so close to the hotel I was staying on a visit. In my short time in Hermosa Beach I came here twice. I highly highly recommend the pistachio Cappuccino. It is a healthy and flavorful drink to help start the day! And shout out to the very friendly staff and making solid recommendations. I'll have to suggest this drink at my local coffee shop I frequent in San Jose. read more

this is my FAVORITE coffee shop in Manhattan Beach, one of the best in LA! The baristas are the sweetest and it's a cozy and spacious cafe with lots of seating (but busy!) The coffee is roasted perfectly to my liking - the drip coffee was soothing, not bitter or sour. Cardigan latte is delightful - hints of cardamom, vanilla and the addition of sea salt is perfection! Also the latte art of the bear was a sweet surprise. Their specialty drinks are unique and unlike any other drinks from coffee shops! Pastries looked all so decadent and delish ; the olive oil cake was not dry/overly sweet and paired sooo well with my cozy latte. read more

Best drip coffee ever, staff are very friendly, and the ambiance is amazing! Will definitely be coming back.

After McDonalds, I decided to try this newer coffeeshop out. It's kind of hard to find and on the small side. Theres a large bench to sit outside but no tables and chairs outside. The interior is kind of small and awkward. I only got a juice drink and thought it was way overpriced at $9 when a comparable drink is only $5 at Starbucks. I may repeat visit to try a coffee but the place didn't do much for me and the hours are short. read more

Highly enjoyable. If you're the type of coffee snob that knows it makes a difference in ordering in store via a wide lipped ceramic mug as opposed to a To Go paper cup, then THIS is the spot for you. Great coffee quality, amazing creamy hot steamed milk, good variety and comfy lounge and study spots. Coffee: * Lavender latte with espresso & Oatmilk (~$7.50) - delightfully impressed with this option. one of my favorite Lavender + espresso latte. Lavender is subtle and well blended. Oatmilk was still very creamy. Putting it In a togo paper cup caused the milk to separate and made the hot steamed milk lose its layer and texture. Must drink it in the store!! Thankfully not too sweet. Would get this again. Next time I wouldn't mind getting 75% or 50% sweetness even though it was perfect just the way it was. * cappuccino (~$5) - despite not "looking" like a good cap and despite the milk looking more foamy than creamy, this cap still had amazing layers and creamy textures. Coffee was well balanced and had a smooth gorgeous bitter and no sour note to it. A more mild and well blended instead of bold espresso. Pouring it into a paper to go cup made it just taste like any ol average cap. Ambiance: * music wasn't too loud * huge parking lot * quite a few tables for study spots, high tops for side by side seating and comfy sink in leather chairs. Service * was a bit slow. When we checked in, there was no line but there were 10 tickets before us so our coffee took 30 min for it to come out. There were 2 friendly staff members working today read more

Want good amazing and superb coffee?! Come here! Want strong cold brew that is not bitter?! Come here! Want amazing service from staff!? Then yes come here! Want a place to sit and enjoy your coffee!! Then yes also come here! I ordered the cold brew and the vanilla latte which were great! I like my coffee strong and not too sweet and it was on point! I will definitely be back to try other drinks on the menu such as the Gwen Stefani which called my attention. I also want to try some of their pastries but if you get there later in the day, they will be out of them. Tip: There is plenty of parking at this location except it can get a little busy or difficult to get out of the area because there is a busy GOODWILL store next door which has heavy traffic at all times of the day! read more

I've stumbled upon a true gem in the South Bay Area--Pure Bean. This delightful establishment has become my sanctuary for heavenly coffee. Their signature coffee drinks are a revelation, striking the perfect balance between added flavors and the rich coffee itself. Each sip is a harmonious symphony of taste. I think I've ordered everything on their signature menu and have yet to try their summer menu. Beyond the exceptional coffee, the staff are friendly. The atmosphere inside is both spacious and cute. Also, popular morning hang outs for police, lol. When I'm stuck in traffic on my way to the office, Pure Bean is my saving grace. Knowing I can enjoy a truly fantastic cup of coffee during traffic makes the journey more bearable. It has become my oasis amidst the chaos of the road. Would definitely continue to come back and try their other drinks and buy their bag of beans! read more

Just discovered Pure Bean and I will definitely be coming back. Ordered the white tea and it was delicious. Surprisingly had a subtle hint of sweetness for a drink that was only tea, and nice floral quality to it. Staff were all nice, friendly and welcoming. My favorite part though is definitely the ability to use Pure Bean as a remote working space. They have ample electrical plugs for you to use, they also have soft comfortable seating, and there is plenty of space inside the shop. The cafe is also inside a plaza with tons of parking. read more

Pure Bean is my favorite coffee shop in the South Bay. The shop has the perfect ambiance to study and work at, it is quite cozy with good music. There's quite a few regulars that work from home here and quite a few students from the local schools studying here daily. It is also a good place to catch up and have a coffee at. The coffee and matcha is really good. And, I really enjoy the Avocado Toast as well. The baristas are all really awesome Leo, Ben, Christian, Ash, Ashley, Justin, Ryan, Christine, Kevin, Dana, Lea and Hana and all the other Baristas all do a great job remembering your order and being very welcoming. And, their mission to charity is admirable. read more

Tried one of their signature drinks (Cardigan) and it did not disappoint! Very rich in flavor and not too sweet. Definitely will get it again. This place is pretty spacious and has lots of seatings available. Service was pretty fast and the baristas were also nice! Bummer that their WiFi wasn't working at the time, but management is working on getting it fix as soon as possible. Overall, a nice place to hang out, study, do work, and/or just to grab a coffee! They also have food available such as pastries, yogurts/parfaits, and burritos! read more

This place was recommended to me, so when I was in the area, I decided to give it a try. I don't know if I went on an off day, but my drink was not good. I ordered the vanilla sky and it had no vanilla flavor and it was extremely bitter. I never want to be wasteful but it was so bad, I ended up throwing it away because it was that awful. There were a lot of people; perhaps they rushed it. Even so, no excuse. I'll maybe give it another try if I'm in the area, but first impression... the drink definitely wasn't good. On a positive note... The cashier was great! Super friendly. : ) read more

Drinks are very creative. they have seasonal drinks named after pop culture references. I got the gwen stefani with espresso, banana milk and chocolate. Employee was kind and patient and supported my processing of their overwhelmingly diverse menu. Lots of space to study and spaced out enough where you don't feel too close to anyone. expect to pay a lot though... look at where you're located read more

I found this place by searching for coffee shops in MB. I'm not in the area often, so I wasn't familiar with the different establishments offered here. I'm glad I came across Pure Bean. I called ahead to see if they had any open seats. The person that answered the phone was exceptionally friendly and helpful. Once you walk in, you will be greeted by whoever is working. I noticed that not one person wasn't greeted while I was sitting here over the course of 3 hours. I ordered the Cardigan with oat milk. The other Yelp reviews highlighting the coffee and beans are truly spot on. Coffee was delicious and my drink wasn't too sweet. It's very clean and modern inside. Plenty of seating to get work done or visit with friends. Will definitely be back when I'm in the area. Free shared parking in the lot that is convenient and easy. read more

Underrated coffee spot in South Bay! I'm a simple coffee kinda gal - drip, iced, cold brew - black, maybe some cream. Pure Bean has a great brew - flavorful & I have never had a bad cup. Never bitter, never tastes like dirt or burnt. The staff is charming and helpful. The ambiance is calm but warm - tons of seating and places to work or study. I come here when I'm too lazy to make my own or when I want to treat myself. read more

I've heard good things about Pure Bean, so I decided to head over to check it out on my way to work. I ordered a Cardigan latte and an olive oil cake to-go. It was busy when I went, but the baristas were quick and friendly and I got my order within 10 min. The Cardigan was divine: it's cardamom-fronted, and its blend of milk and spices were smooth and comforting-- I'd 100% get it again. The olive oil cake was delicious, too: moist, slightly crusty, and not too sweet. While I didn't dine in this time around, I'd love to return for a proper brunch. The place is spacious with plenty of natural lighting, offering a bright and welcoming environment. I'll be back! read more
