This place is so wonderful. Huge menu and completely plant based. I love that you are able to order anything anytime of day. We went late in the evening and it was busy. Service was fast and everything was delicious. I love that the burger is also house made and not a processed plant based patty. The cake was good not overly sweet but a little dry. Overall I will back to try more items when I'm in town read more

The Grain Cafe - Chicken Curry Wrap & Deluxe Burger - Pizza Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

As fellow vegans know, options at non-vegan establishments are often limited, so it takes us about 2.5 seconds to "decide" what we want (aka make substitutions or pick the one vegan thing on the menu). Having said that, it's often easy for me to make a decision at a vegan restaurant because I go in knowing what I want. Let me say that going into The Grain Cafe, I WAS NOT PREPARED FOR THE AMOUNT OF OPTIONS THEY HAD. Was this my fault for not doing my research beforehand?! For not craving a particular taste? Anyway... after (literally) 20 min of sitting and staring at the menu, I finally decided on a Cobb salad. I know, I know. Judge me all you want. But after not having a Cobb salad for almost 7 years (probably even more), I was craving something incredibly....... boring? But this was not. It was actually exactly what I was looking for in a Cobb salad. Protein. Greens to make me feel healthy. Enough space in my stomach for a dessert. I was extremely happy with my decision. I also had a tres leches cake which was delish (tbh I'll probably get the red velvet next time just to say I had it) The service is amazing. The people who work here are so sweet and attentive and helpful. Can't wait to come back and try their other items. Maybe I'll even do my homework next time! read more

I cannot tell you how excited I was by my meal while I was eating it! I first tried the Long Beach location, which was only the coconut smoothie and the roll, which was very unimpressive. I decided to order something different this time to give it a proper chance. The service was good! The server answered whatever question I had and checked in on me to see how things were going. Both the quesadilla and torta had me almost dancing in my seat while I listened to Latin cumbias playing in the dining room. I've never had Daiya cheese before and the combination of it with the spinach tortilla was amazing. The chips and guacamole were great, slightly spicy. The torta was everything I've ever wanted in a torta. I appreciated that the torta wasn't wide the way most tortas are made, the bread was slightly flatter and the inner dressings made it not chunky. It made for a good light lunch. Although, definitely had to get a takeout box because I couldn't finish the potatoes and some of the quesadilla. The potatoes were also slightly spicy. I definitely will be coming back now that it has won me over! read more

Best vegan spot in the South Bay! Lovely service that was super kind and wanting to help us. - Caramel Latte had this nutty finish that was delicious. Really curious how they got that flavor profile. Caramel must've been fresh - Moringa Latte was a gamechanger! Tastes like matcha combined with heavy spices like Cardamom. Must try - Chilaquiles with both salsas was a revelation. Never had chilaquiles this good at a Vegan spot. Let's just say...I avoid Mexican food in certain neighborhoods lol but this surpassed all my expectations. Try it with the chile rojo that is on the table. - Chocolate Crepe to finish was fluffy, light and had a great dark cacao taste that didn't overwhelm with sweetness. The perfect finish. read more

I got some takeout here when in the area and in a bit of a rush, so sadly, didn't have time to dine in! When I arrived, parking was super easy in the giant free lot they share with other businesses. The restaurant is really cute with lots of cozy seating and the decor is fun, vibrant and eclectic! I was greeted by a friendly employee who was very helpful and found my order really quickly! I ordered two potato and cheese tacos and they were so flavorful and perfectly seasoned! The taco was crispy and the potato inside was so soft luscious while the cheese was melty. It had a great savory flavor and was accompanied with sauces to give it even more spice! I regret not getting a dessert, as their dessert case was filled with enticing looking cakes! This just gives me a reason to return and dine in next time! read more

I really enjoyed The Grain Cafe. It was a really comfortable environment and I would have enjoyed myself more if I had eaten in I think. The food is expensive and my breakfast burrito didn't have avocado in it like I asked for. The food is about $20 a plate. I think I can see myself giving this place a 5 if they host special events, have rotating menu specials and/or set up some kind of check in offer on Yelp. The service was friendly! read more

The Grain Cafe - Gluten Free Chilaquiles Breakfast & Chile Relleno - Pizza Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

I love grain cafe. Sure at times they have their moments but im glad theyve survived all this time. I recommend their tres leche and strawberry almond cake. My go to breakfast is usually the bagel with fruit, it tastes fresh and i love pairing it with the ginger lemonade. Sometimes its sweeter, sometimes it more ginger punch!! I love their potato tacos for when im craving something a little more savory and their sun butter and cocoa nibs smoothie are good too. Lets see also their torta mmmm yum im hungry now read more

Arriving around 4:00 p.m., after a pleasant walk, we found the restaurant fairly empty. No one was at the register, so I helped myself to a couple of menus. Choosing what to eat proved challenging; the menu offered a wide variety. My friend is encouraging me to eat more vegan meals, aiming for four days a week. I started with a berry smoothie. The menu boasted many vegan options, but I ultimately opted for a pizza with roasted peppers, zucchini, mushrooms, vegan cheese, and marinara sauce, along with a side of potatoes. My friend ordered a club sandwich, adding mushrooms, and a side salad. My pizza was exquisite--it practically melted in my mouth! The sauce had an unexpected, almost buffalo-like tang, though it was listed as marinara. Even though I was quite full from the potatoes and smoothie, I managed two slices. I'll definitely return to explore more of the menu, but I highly recommend the pizza--you won't be disappointed. read more

Vegan shenanigans continue... Someone told me about this place. So we decided to check it out. After asking for recommendations from the waiter, I went with the breakfast burrito and vanilla latte. Both were delicious. I had never had tempeh bacon. So good. And the coffee wasn't bitter at all. My niece got three tacos and an iced caramel coffee. She said they were all good, but the highlight was the potato taco. The only thing we didn't like was the homemade salsa. It was heat without any other flavor. They should work on that. This place is highly recommended though. They have a lot of variety on the menu. So there's something for almost everyone. read more

Service is fine, since we asked what options we may order without onion and garlic. Server knows the menu and the preparation well, and for few times he went double check for us.

The Grain Cafe - Veggies vegan crepe with salad instead of roasted potatoes - Pizza Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

This place has such AMAZING vegan food. Also, so much of it is gluten free too which is a huge plus. You really cannot go wrong with any of their options. The only reason I rated it 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the price to portion ratio. The prices are a little extreme for the amount of food you are getting, but it is all organic and the quality is superb. Worth a visit every once in a while for me. You can tell that this is family-run and the interior is way more inviting than it would seem. My friend had the curry wrap and loved it! I had the huevos a la mexicana (tofu) and it was so delicious I would definitely order it again. It came with an organic homemade hot sauce that I wish I could buy!!! read more

I went to visit my sister in Hermosa Beach and she recommended we go to The Grain Cafe for lunch. It is located in a strip shopping center with a few other vegetarian restaurants located nearby. It is comfortable with ample seating and bright decorations. This restaurant is vegan, which I was interested in trying, since I have been transitioning to eating more plant based foods. We both ordered the Hibiscus Iced Tea, which was quite good and was served with honey. I ordered the Falafel Wrap with a side of potatoes. The falafel was baked which I prefer over fried. The ample spinach wrap was stuffed with falafel, hummus, lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers and tahini sauce. The potatoes were decent but were not very hot. Overall the lunch was tasty and there was enough food to bring home leftovers. My sister ordered the Patty Crepe but was brought the Veggie Crepe instead. She ate half of it before realizing that there was no patty. She informed the server that she was given the wrong order and apologized and offered to bring the patty separately, which she accepted. She took a bite of it and said it was very good but would save it for later. She also took home half of her order. The menu is quite extensive. I would definitely return to try out some of their other dishes. read more

I'm actually genuinely confused by the club sandwich I ordered. I think this is a vegan restaurant, but I feel like 75% certain that what I ate was actually chicken. Am I tripping? I legitimately thought about calling the restaurant to ask and make sure I didn't accidentally eat chicken. I still might tomorrow. If I find out it was real chicken, this review is definitely getting updated...lol read more

The Grain Cafe - Nachos - Pizza Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

I was looking for a place that had vegan options during breakfast when I remembered seeing this Grain Cafe location during my last visit to the neighboring restaurant Happy Veggie. I'm no stranger to Grain Cafe. I've previously enjoyed a Reuben sandwich or two via delivery from the Long Beach location. However, I've never had the pleasure of dining in. That is, until now. My mom, my sister, and I walked into this Redondo Beach location on a Sunday after 9am and was seated right away. There was only one other party in the dining room at the time of arrival and another party that arrived after us. The amount of options on this all-vegan menu is impressive! I had the Veggie Crêpe which totally hit the spot. It was filled with spinach, mushroom, zucchini, red bell peppers, and topped with a garlic-basil aioli. The portion was quite large! I also like that the side salad had a bit of quinoa. Whatever dressing they use on the salad is tasty. https://bit.ly/3TlLTaj My sister had the Patty Crêpe which I almost ordered myself so I was stoked that she went for it. I appreciate that they used a veggie patty and not Beyond or Impossible. It comes with vegan cheese, tomatoes, pickles, avocado, and a special sauce. https://bit.ly/3T4hSKR My mom had the English Muffin which sandwiched tofu and vegan sausage and cheese. This came with a side of hashbrowns. https://bit.ly/3UXyFlh Yummy dishes all around! Good neighborhood cafe. The large dining room was fairly empty for the most part which makes me wonder if lunch and/or dinner are more busier times. I would absolutely eat breakfast here again though I wouldn't mind checking out the lunch/dinner vibes as well. read more

Great plant based restaurant! This restaurant is located in an outdoor strip mall with a few other plant based restaurants. Parking in the lot was easy and plentiful no matter what time we visited.

Good selection of bulk tea served like it should be: in a press (not bags). Only thing we haven't tried is pizza. Salads, the Cobb yes! Waffle deluxe.. yes! Mexico inspired, yes! Grilled sandwiches like their Reuben... yes! Only so-so is the cake. Sometimes fresh and sometimes not as fresh. We love this place. Oh, the Sun Butter smoothies, yes! They'll fill you up though so share one. read more

This is a such a cool vegan spot! Glad that we have found this chain that makes it easy to find delicious vegan delights. We have tried the Redondo beach location and the Long Beach location and they both have cute ambiance and friendly staff. We have tried the tropical and the chocolate crepes, veggie burger with roasted potatoes, wet burritos and tostadas and all of their food was delicious. I think the chocolate crepe was slightly chewy and could have been better and probably needed more chocolate sauce. We would love to come back and try other items on the menu. This location has good parking spaces available. read more

Just found a gem in Redondo Beach! Calling all vegans - and especially those needing gluten-free options - you HAVE to try this place. I honestly had the best vegan and gluten-free breakfast I've had in a long time. It's almost impossible to find a breakfast that meets both those criteria and tastes this amazing! My husband and I shared a few dishes to try a bit of everything, and we were so impressed. And the lattes? Just heavenly! We absolutely can't wait to stop by again on our next trip to Redondo Beach. read more

The Grain Cafe - 4 bowl with garlicky greens, seaweed, burger patty, quinoa with garlic aioli. - Pizza Near Me - Redondo Beach, California

Great food and atmosphere. Completely plant-based. Ample parking. Lots of cakes. Open late hours.

Ordered to go and was told it would take 10-15 minutes for my 2 items to be made which is pretty standard seeing as it wasn't busy at all. Two people walked in after me and got their full order before I got my to go order and I had to wait about 40 minutes to get my order of burrito and torta. My items were room temperature at best- and after I ate a majority of my food I found a black hair on the bottom of my container which I am blonde so I know it's not mine. I am disgusted as I'm not sure how much other pieces of hair or other items I just ate that isn't food. I spent $40, waiting 40 minutes and hair in my room temperature food. Definitely don't recommend and I should be getting my money back but I don't have time to call as this place also made me late to work and I now only have the ability to type not call. read more

I live in the neighborhood so have eaten here well satisfied many times. Not sure what's going on but food quality has taken a dive and the service an attitude is gone out the door with it. Made an online order and when I arrived was told that 2 of the 3 items were not available so we made subs. Got home to find the subbed cake and brownie were so stale they were not edible. Returned the cake the next day and the server was not the least bit apologetic nor offered any compensation simply said we don't have anything fresh you'd have to come back tomorrow. No thanks I left with nothing including a sorry for the inconvenience which would have gone a long way. Don't see this place staying open much longer. read more

I think I could eat here every day and never get sick of this place! Everything is my new favorite thing. I will start with breakfast - I love their vegan eggs. It's my favorite in the breakfast burrito, but I've had them on the platter as well with waffles as well. The flavors and consistency of the "eggs" are fantastic - the best I've had since turning vegan. The huevos rancheros are delicious and the hot Maca coffee is fantastic! It tastes like a sugar cookie, but not overly sweet, just comforting. I also love their chili relleno dinner. It was so flavorful and filled a craving I'd been having for a while. I'm actually super picky with Mexican food flavors but they do a great job! I've eaten the food in the restaurant or gotten it delivered - it holds up well in transit! Now I'm craving another trip to the cafe. read more
