The Cow's End is a local favorite. Literally 3 businesses away from a Starbucks but the only line is here! Because all the locals know, this is the best cup of coffee. Warm and welcoming with great customer service. Dogs are warmly greeted and they even stock dog biscuits for you to purchase for your pup. It's my go-to Venice beach coffee shop. Don't miss out on the Boars Head sandwiches. They are also delicious! read more

One of the best breakfast sandwiches I've had in a while loved the full range of customizations I was able to make and the fresh baked bagels were on point! read more

The food was great, good sizes and decently priced,. The service was pretty great, very friendly staff and the ambiance was actually quite charming to the tune of American culture. I'd say if you're near the Venice pier, this is a must try. read more

They def don't open at 6am. I just left there and hoped I could find a local place before work. There wasn't nobody but and the birds awake up this early. I was disappointed bc in hungry and wanted real food. I'll try again later I look forward to eating here! The name alone got me stoked. read more

Good coffee. Good sandwiches. Excellent location and people. I've lived in Venice for 27 years and have been to the Cow's End probably 500 times. Skip the Starbucks down the street and head here. Prices have increased recently, but no more than inflation requires. read more

Great spot! Atmosphere is fantastic and it has a cool vibe! The staff are friendly and it's a great place to work or meet people!

We had coffees, one morning we had the bagel egg sandwiches that were yummy, and the next morning we had the açaí bowls which were fabulous! We also left with 2lbs of coffee which have been heaven. We will always stop by when we are in town! Loved it! read more

Wanted to try this because it had such great reviews. For COVID, they have outside seating setup and spaced out lines. They have a wide variety of wraps, burritos, bagels, sandwiches, smoothies, and you can get an acai bowl. The wrap was huge with a side of salad and 2 pieces of orange. Of course large spread of coffee, teas, and juice options. We got the acai bowl and hummis wrap. It was all just ok! i dont think i would go back but good for a grab and go! read more

Super eclectic crowd, menu, and staff... love it!!!! The service is top notch with a super chill vibe. The kona coffee is hands down the best! Their juices are made fresh as well as every dish they churn out. I've had the avocado toast, the breakfast tacos and a bowl. Every single item has been a great pleasure with freshness in each bite. Be careful of where you step though, the floor is uneven. read more

On my first trip to Marina del Rey, I was a little dissapointed in the actual building/establishment of the cafe. Uncllean and cluttered, previous reviews made me feel like this was a great place to study. I have to disagree. While the staff was super helpful and the iced coffee I ordered was wonderful, the place only accepts cash (c'mon its 2020) and isn't conducive to a productive thinking environment. Next time I'm in the area, this will be a "stop by and grab a drink", not a "stay to enjoy" situation. read more

Delicious smoothies, for a reasonable price (esp near the beach). And they have a ton of options to choose from! The staff are always so friendly, as well! We live right next to another smoothie shop, but we'll always chose to walk the extra 20 minutes for a Cow's End smoothie! :) read more

The cows end cafe is an awesome breakfast spot with tons of options! We went in and got a decent cup of coffee, one of the açaí bowls, and the BLT breakfast sandwich. All of them were fantastic. This place DOES accept credit cards, even though many reviews say they do not. This changed during Covid. We will be going back plenty of times! read more

The coffee is amazing. I ordered a white mocha latte with hazelnut. Very delicious, better than Starbucks I dare say. However, I used the yelp app to order my food. And I asked for eggs on my BLT bagel sandwich, and I came to find out that not only was their no egg (by the time I drove home, I'm not from the area, just stopping through near a hotel down the street) that I paid extra for on the app, but that the sandwich was cold and not a hot sandwich. I should have paid more attention there I guess. But also the bacon was limp and the sandwich was primarily lettuce (yes I understand BLT). I would maybe like to try another sandwich, but this one was not very good. Please try their coffee :) [update: GrubHub helped refund the additional egg charge // co-owner Thea reached out to assist with a future visit. Everyone is very kind, if I am in the area again like I mentioned before I am not so put off as to try another food item or drink] read more

This place was a decent coffee shop. Everything about it was average. The coffee was okay, nothing notable. The drinks were pretty standard also nothing notable. The guy behind the register was nice, but either a) didn't know the menu very well or b) couldn't be bothered with helping us. In addition to our drink, we also got a coffee cake - it was stale or a few days old. Overall, I'm not sure what I expected this close to the beach and essentially the closest place to the water. I usually like to put my cash into local businesses, but I'll probably just go to the Starbucks up the block next time. read more

This place is always busy with a line out the door! But its definitely worth the wait. The staff are friendly and everyone has their "station" so once you order the food/drinks are out pretty quickly. So far I haven't had anything I didn't like and the menu is much bigger than I anticipated. I has a cute seating area upstairs with couches and tables. The location is great, right by Venice beach, however, parking can be hard. read more

We went on a food tour in Venice Beach. Our first stop was Cow's End. I got a chai latte and the açaí bowl was included in the tour. The açaí bowl was on of the best I've had to date. It was green. The açaí smoothies was topped with raspberries, granola and honey. It tasted like pineapple,spirulina, raspberry, mango and banana. The place was like a reprieve from the crowd. There is a bathroom behind the kitchen. Follow the maze. Service was quick. I highly recommend this place. read more

Very delicious sandwiches and big plates, reasonable prices. The only thing is that the menu prices do not match :) read more

Stopped in on a whim. Got an açaí nutty protein bowl and a coffee. Both were great. Enjoyed sitting in the little patio made out front for covid times. Definitely a good spot while in Venice ! read more

Artisan my eye. Food was so tasteless I went and got a Covid test. Here's the best part. I ordered 2 Fried eggs on roll with sausage and cheese. When I Got where I was going, I had microwaved scrambled eggs , Bacon Carpaccio , I mean I've never bacon this thin in my life. I'll not be going back to this place. read more

Nice place. I love the outdoor seating and the menu options and variety. It is located one block from Venice beach. It is so convenient if you need to step away from the beach to grab a bite or a smoothie. The mango madness I order tasted more like berries and banana. Maybe they were out of mango! read more

Large selection of dairy and non-dairy smoothies, which was perfect for my brother and I, who don't drink coffee. Plenty of seating outside and inside, including a bunch upstairs. There's a WiFi password but I could not get it to work, despite trying out different parts of the cafe. Walking distance from the beach and near other Venice spots like Hinano. There's metered street parking and free residential street parking. The staff was super friendly as well. Bathroom is located around the kitchen, follow the pathway around it. read more

This is a cute country style cafe located just right outside of the Venice beach. I bought a special from living social and gave it a try. Not all that thrilled about their coffees, but they do have good sandwiches and smoothies! Didn't stay long enough to enjoy the cuteness of the place. Parking may be a drag since its street parking and you know how the few parking spots are in the alley of Venice Pier. Tried their Pina Colada Smoothie with flakes of shredded coconuts in there. sandwich is awesome! They have a full on deli in the coffee shop with Boars Head Meats!! read more

Small shop but excellent service and food. Was great to grab a bagel and walk to the beach. I ordered a coffee and they asked me to try it first before leaving to make sure it was good which I thought was sweet. We got a blt with avocado and a jalapeño and cheese bagel. The smoothies are also amazing. read more

The food and service were great. The ambiance didn't score a ten to me, but it was close. I would go back to try some of their other dishes.

Busy spot near the beach with ample outdoor and indoor space that was nicely decorated. Stopped by for some coffee and quick breakfast. The Alaskan toast with egg whites and smoked salmon on ciabatta was delicious. The pickled onions, capers and fresh tomato slices were a nice addition to enhance the flavors of the smoked salmon. The almond croissant was a bit of a disappointment since it was chewy and clearly not fresh. A bit surprising for a Saturday morning. read more

There are so many coffeehouses on Venice, but this one stood out for me the most because of their local friendly service. I really enjoyed how most of the locals here knows each other. I also enjoyed how super friendly and very energetic the staff here too! Love their outdoor seating. I was able to sip my cappuccino on a nice afternoon, and even met a nice local who gave me good tips where to go on Venice. Also, don't forget to checkout their second floor. It's so funky and awesome all at the same time. There are bike parking up front, and I don't recommend driving as this can be a challenge, so take a nice walk and stroll instead and head on in!! Until then, Cheers! ~ :p read more

Only came here for coffee but super quick service and friendly staff. Think it's worth calling out and honestly why go for the corporate Charbucka across the street when you can support local! read more

This place has many options, made with quality ingredients. My smoked salmon panini took quite a bit of time, but when I got it, they didn't skimp whatsoever. They definitely have a great business going here, and the foot traffic reflects that. The do however need to hire more staff, and repair some things. ;) read more

The food is okay, nice seating arrangement. Pricing is reasonable and the food was quickly served.

Omg lovee their drinks! Got 2nds! Dog friendly $.25 treats. Wifi junkie spot. Reward punch . Cozy spot. Parking, general by beach is around $10? But then you can get some work done ate Cow's End Cafe upstairs, then walk over to beach and pier to chill and then get some drinks at the Whaler. Vs Starbucks, this place actually makes some pretty good vanilla chai drinks! And theres plenty of seating inside. read more

Fast little place! We were able to sit outside with the pups. Perfect spot for a coffee, smoothie, or sandwich.

Really cute cafe for studying and eating and is walking distance to Venice Beach, which is a huge perk. I love studying at cafes near the beach so that I have the option to sit out after getting some work done. The menu is pretty lengthy and there's a lot of healthy options. I ordered a salad that was alright and came with orange slices. You order downstairs and then wait for your name to be called for your food, but you have to stay downstairs because you won't be able to hear them if you go back upstairs to the tables. There are trash bins upstairs for you to throw away your food and return your plates when you're done. The wifi was a little slow when I came, so I ended up using my hot spot on my phone. Minimal amount of power outlets. It's a cafe that's mostly self-serve with simple meals that were okay in my opinion. I'd most likely come back to get a drink or acai bowl rather than the meals. I mostly enjoy its location and the nice treehouse-like feel as a study spot. read more

Such a good locals spot. Good coffee and variety of pastries to choose from. Loved the atmosphere and would recommend for people watching spot. read more
