Tanner's Coffee Co.

Paid Tanner’s a visit this morning hoping to get in on a chess game. The cafe was vacant so decided to order a coffee and hang for a bit. Person working the counter was a flat liner, poured my coffee and slid it right over to me - no words, no smile, nada. May revisit to find a game. Coffee good though!

real nice experience. Tanner’s has its unique style inside that I appreciated. My friends and I enjoyed the games they had available to pass time while drinking our coffee.

Coffee did get cold quick so ask for extra hot if you prefer to make ur coffee last longer

I’ve gone here for years and love it. BUT, the current weekend crew needs to do bagels correctly. They are not supposed to be served with a tablespoon of cream cheese. No, that might be correct for butter. Slather on the cream cheese please, don’t be cheap. And, don’t cut the bagel in half like a sandwich, it should be two whole halves. I’m sure I speak for others with this critique. Other than that, it’s a pleasant experience going there.

Fantastic way to start the day! Kenya and Ciela were super kind and welcoming when I came in around 9am. The shop has a laid-back, local feel with surfboards hanging on the walls and lots of homey touches, including several bookshelves and a chess table. They have free Wi-Fi, and there are plenty of seats, couches, and outlets. I ordered the daily special, a French roast coffee with a nice kick, and an egg & cheese breakfast sandwich that was cooked to perfection, especially the bagel. On my way out, Kenya handed me a Tanner's pocket planner since it was my first time there. Made my day! Will definitely be back soon. If you're looking for a mellow spot to read, write, or work in Culver City, this is it.

Kind of a quiet place. So they have free Wi-Fi and the bakery goods are tasty. The coffee is tasty. There's places to sit outside if it's too quiet indoors.

Love how they still have customer service in a time when customer service is almost obsolete. Also, it is nice to see a real coffee house with couches and chairs as well as tables. The coffee, like with the other brand names, is not to cheap. However, it is worth it.

Good place to hang out with friends. I love the bagel with egg white and cheese with coffee for breakfast. Hot and delicious.
You can play chess, board games or just work on your computer.
Great Staff.

I stopped in here in between my flight in and out of LA. The people there were very nice, the atmospheric was really relaxed, and I was able to work quietly.

Tanners is the definition of the neighborhood coffee shop. Chess games are frequent here and can often get quite competitive. The Chess Club of Los Angeles meets here to run official USCF rated tournaments for all ages. Come by on a weekend between 12p-5p for unrated chess games, or after 5pm for USCF rated tournaments. If you want to play chess but don't feel ready for the tournaments, come by any other time and play one of the boards available inside the shop for patrons to play casually.

A pretty casual coffee shop with a fair assortment of coffees and baked goods. I just kept it simple and got an iced latte. Came in to do some remote work and Wi-Fi is strong. Ambience wise it’s laid back like a great uncles living room sort of vibe. Lots of people working on their laptops, chess tables, book shelves etc.
They also had outdoor seating and bathrooms. People were sitting with their dogs at the outside tables.
Street parking/metered parking nearby as well.
