Nice and quiet ambiance, we tried a couple of drinks and pastries, which was great. The shop itself is clean, the staff is friendly a bit pricey $26 for a bread, small matcha drink and a mocha blended.

Lovely espresso spot on the boardwalk, and a wonderful minimal escape from the sensory overload that is Venice Beach. Coffee and pastry were both solid, though I wish they gave the option to serve them on actual plates and cups as opposed to paper take-away as default. The interior is chill, but could use more seating in the space. Baristas were also cool.

I started spending my mornings here a couple weeks ago, Their outside patio is the perfect location to read some emails and get some work done. I always get an iced latte with whole milk and a whisper of vanilla...They do such a good job. Joey was kind enough to let me try their new black tea on the house! Super kind people and super great coffee... Welcome to the hood Abalona!

Occupying this cute space right by the Venice Beach, this cafe was surely perfect spot to enjoy the beach while getting your caffeine dose. They did have some small tables inside, but obviously more of the guests preferred to sit at the front patio just to do people watching or seeing the seagulls. Let me take a moment to say bunch of thanks to the top-notch baristas, who went above and beyond serving the customers. It was 'CERTAINLY A DAY' during my visit as I spilled half cup of my coffee on my laptop and not so long after that a guest came and fainted on the spot. Dealing with that kind of day, they were being extremely helpful, even offering me towel to help drying my laptop and making me another drink to replace my spilled one. They also helped taking good care of the fainted guest and yeah it kinda happened back to back LOL. Cutting the story short, they were just amazing and if you ever paid a visit, please treat them super well :) It was a great coffee by the beach experience for sure, not only because my laptop ran well without any issue, but I really enjoyed the vibe. My caramel latte was okay, but I could see myself coming back for the ambiance.

Solid spot right on the main strip of Venice Beach. Had a nice iced latte and a solid ham and cheese croissant!

Cute, clean, friendly establishment with great options. I was happy with my latte that was customized to my liking. I wish I had taken a picture of my Avo Toast that I quickly devoured. It was quite tasty and filing with fresh ingredients. Atmosphere is Venice Boardwalk. If you know, you know. Good seating. My favorite things included here; the beach, good coffee, and small eats. Thank you!
