    Alessandra who is one of the newest additions to the crew in Marina del Rey.
    Melody C.

    This is my hometown place. Well my new hometown place. I've lived in Marina Del Rey now for more than 3 years. I have seen this place go back and forth from great service to not so great depending on who they're hiring. Having been in the show business world and the food service hospitality industry I know how important it is to leave customers with a smile. There have been times where this place hasn't hired people that cared about the customer experience. But right now they have a great crew of people that seem to really work hard. This Starbucks also has a lot of room to sit and it's nice and relaxing to be in there. The only thing that's not great is that it doesn't have any plugs anymore so you cannot plug in your laptop or your phone. So many others Starbucks have that feature and it's much more welcoming to people who need to do some quiet work. Who wants to run out of charge? It's not a great decision by management. Their decorations on the wall are nice very apropos to the area. They used to have a joke of the day as well and that was fun. I haven't seen it for a couple of times now but it's fun to go and ask the baristas the question Today I was waited on by Alessandro. I haven't seen him before but he has an easy smile that puts people in a good mood and he's just really friendly and professional and easygoing which I really like. He had a musician performer vibe but was totally focusing on the customers in a very welcoming way. I didn't have a big order today just a venti Americano some ice water and some oatmeal. I love that they put all of the extras on the side for the oatmeal. There are mixed nuts, fruit which is dried, and brown sugar which I'm not using. Even though it's yummy lol. The only thing I would add is cinnamon I put cinnamon in everything. The vibe was great today and everybody was getting waited on in a timely manner which was wonderful everything was running smoothly. I sat there for a while with my little dog and did some writing. It's noisy in there but it's not so noisy that it's distracting it kind of helps you to just focus if you want to. I hope this Starbucks stays just like this. With employees like Alessandro.. and the peppy manager the rest of the crew I think their choices of staff are great. I'm going to get more of their names next time and post them there's this one girl with long black curly hair always goes the extra mile with a warm smile. I have seen this place go through good and bad staff and I'm happy right now that customer service seems to be a higher priority. I love how they greet people when you come in they always say Welcome!

    August 14, 2023 Marina del Rey: Quick, friendly & service with a smile! Thanks again for making an excellent cup of iced Chai Tea Latte, alongside my warm Cheese Danish; perfect & yum! Sat outside at a table for a bit to eat, drink & enjoy the scenery!

    I've never been to Starbucks that has samples, so I was delighted to see samples of coffee cake and chai latte in cute little sample cups when I first walked in. Customer service here is also great. Not rude and go out of their way to help. Excellent location!

    The worst service, go elsewhere. Took forever to get an overpriced bagel. You're better off going across the street to trader joes.

The interior decor is beautiful and cozy, though on the smaller side, but there's plenty of outdoor seating that more than makes up for it. You can tell the baristas genuinely love what they do, and they're amazing at it. It's the perfect spot to get my creative juices flowing as a writer, and I always leave feeling inspired (and well caffeinated). It's also the kind of spot that makes you want to linger, order another cup, and come back way too often.

They have a small parking lot across the side street which is a blessing in Venice and appreciated. I liked their chocolate chip cookie a lot, the pastries were good and no complaints there. However, I never had a drink I was in love with though they were all totally drinkable. I feel sad because I was excited to come here to try this Aussie vibes coffee shop. I kept hoping my first trip, then my second was an anomaly, but alas~ three stops in and it's been pretty much the same every time. Honestly, I enjoy my mornings started with friendliness so I don't foresee coming back to Little Lunch Coffee.

    I was looking for a place to meet a friend near the ocean. The menu at this restaurant looked…read moredelicious and we decided to give it a try. There is both indoor and patio dining. The vibe is casual and beach chic. All of the food is delicious and this is one of the best breakfasts I've ever had. The restaurant has very few parking spaces on site. The only downside is that the paid parking is ridiculously expensive. Anywhere from $10 to 15 minutes to an hour, $20 for two hours and the price goes up and up. There is one hour metered parking nearby which isn't very convenient if you have to keep going back to refill the meter. If you're lucky you might find distant street parking that is unpaid. This is nothing against the restaurant, but as Venice as a city in general. High prices like these without any special validation, are sure to keep people from coming to these places at all if you can't afford it. Perhaps that's how Venice would like to keep it. Only people who can afford the parking are allowed to enjoy these businesses.

    Entire experience was fantastic from hostess to paying the bill…read more I didn't have a reservation, hostess sat me immediately and she was really friendly and cute (respectfully). The ambiance was very chill California energy (I'm from New York lol), which I loved. The decor also was giving spa vibes in a good way. Byredo hand soap in the restroom, okayyyy! My server Joshua was super friendly and attentive, appreciated his good energy. Breakfast menu had a lot of delicious sounding options but I went for the breakfast burrito with hot sauce and it was fantastic. Breakfast burritos are very hit or miss IMO and this was a hit. I also had two cappuccinos bc I am a caffeine fiend and also jet lagged and they were both very good. Highly recommend to anyone in the neighborhood. I just realized they have other locations throughout LA too which I'm sure are also good but this one did not disappoint at all.

Interesting options like the Fig Leaf Cream Top Cold Brew and the Banana Cream Top Matcha Latte are truly delicious and beautifully balanced, without being a cloying sugar bomb.

Also the owner who is always there running the show is super kind and has clearly mastered barista artistry which adds to the overall experience. Saint Maxime takes pride in their powerfully compact business and it comes through with every sip.

    I love how the great coffee just keep flowing in Venice Beach…read more FLO COFFEE BAR has limited indoor seats and none outdoors. The space is essentially a garage with the garage door open. Of course, it has been reno-ed so it is sanitary AND esthetic. The line "goes out the door" because there really isn't an "indoor". But not to worry, it won't be long before you make it to the front of the line and get to order your drink. I was ever so glad to see a "Nico" on the menu, but upon reading it, the "Scarlet" is what I ended up ordering.... and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT. The roast they used is sufficiently strong. The spices were delicious. The location is a stone throws away from the end/beginning of Abbott Kinney. We were able to find a parking spot on the street nearby. There is no private parking lot. On a Saturday morning, it didn't take us long to find a spot. I'm not sure how it will be during the weekday. If you so need, there is a parking lot with meters a couple of blocks away. A "block" in this area is pretty short. The baristas know their regulars and are friendly to newbies like me.
