Beautiful little cafe with a nice outdoor terrace. Very cozy and the service is super friendly. The little shop next door is also great, you can find wonderful gifts here.Price-performance is right. The food is delicious and freshly prepared...I felt very well.

Their coffee was solid. Nothing amazing but also not bad. Their avocado toast though, was delicious. Highly recommend trying it.

Nothing special with the exception of eating in Hermosa Beach, laid back unlike my neighborhood. The sandwiches were decent, actually pretty good. The help always looks a little stressed, most of the time marginally friendly. The clientele reflected the high income neighborhood complete with aviator sunglasses and this week's boot fashion (full retail, wouldn't be caught dead wearing something that they picked up from a sale). That always provides good entertainment, especially if you're bored.

This shop serves some of the best taco I ever had. Delicious and worth the wait. Definitely one of my SoCal favorites!! I ate so fast I couldn't take photos! Next time!

Exceptional Veggie Sandwich with a garlicky hummus dressing and greens with a delicious horseradish vinaigrette. The bowl of Potato Leek Soup was astounding in flavor and consistency. Potato salad, a great choice. The Service, an A++Very sophisticated flavors in a relaxing atmosphere.Cute shop, also bought a few adorable items.

Love this place, especially early morning when you can sit outside and just soak in the surroundings. I particularly like the staff here who are really caring and warm. Moreover, the food also has their care and warmth, and reflects so much on how their Aussie owner loves his staff and business!!

A really outstanding pairing of home/gift/design shop with a small-but-mighty café and coffee shop. It’s enough to make me want to move to Hermosa Beach and live close enough to Gum Tree that it could be my go to coffee shop and the place I buy all my gifts for friends, loved ones [and myself let’s be real]. If I had something like this on the Hollywood side of town, I’d spend most of my income at it!!In terms of the café: I had the iced lavender latte and it was divine. Too much and those can taste more like soap than like a delicious coffee. Theirs is phenomenal.In terms of the shop: from the kids section to the cooking section to the jewelry and the clothes - this is one of the better curated boutiques anywhere in greater LA or the South Bay. And I thought the prices were largely really reasonable. Some pricier things, as is fair, and lots of options to hit other price points too.Dietary restrictions: Plant milks available.

This is a super cute store and cafe a short walk from the beach. The food is great and good price especially in the beach cities. The barista/servers are always nice. Tip- The flavored lattes are very light on the syrup so if you like it on the sweeter side, let them know or grab some sugar packets.Parking: It is the usual beach parking: metered street parking and metered parking lots

I absolutely love this place. Super cozy. I love the patio. The cookies are good. The avocado toast is the best I've ever had, and the service is top-notch. Kim is the best. Very nice and friendly. Kim is very knowledgeable of the menu. There is a nice boutique also. Great place great vibe.

Was excited to try their meat pies. The taste was pleasant, but the pastry at the bottom was almost raw. My boyfriend received the wrong food, which he decided not to send back, but unfortunately, the macaroni noodles were not done all the way. The lamingtons were yummy though. We also noticed while there that other customers also received something different from what they had ordered.

The only reason it gets 2 stars is because the Lamington was good. I ordered a grilled cheese and got Mac and cheese. I did not even bother getting it fixed since the Mac and cheese were hard and raw. Maybe it was a bad day for the three employees but was not busy and they seemed disinterested in helping anyways. Seemed like they were busy doing other things. Even when I was there, other customers did complain about getting the wrong stuff.

The ahi tuna sandwich was good but my friend didn’t like the Chinese chicken salad at all. The chicken was dry and not enough dressing. The drinks were good and the service was nice.

A pretty basic generic cafe, but the baristas for sure know what they're doing there and out of all of the places in Hermosa we like this one the most for getting a good espresso based beverage.
