Lo/Cal Coffee & Market

Decent coffee but the banana muffin I got was quite bad. Seemed to have a cornmeal or overly floured crust and was way, way too sweet. They had a number of savory options that looked quite good, so if I return I’ll probably stick to those.

Don’t go after 3:15 pm they will only offer cold brew on tap which is the same as not offering anything. I was told they turned off their expresso machine ten mins ago. Where is their manager?

This is probably one of my favorite coffee places to check out in the Santa Monica area. They have a wide variety of coffee and food options. They have Stumptown coffee as their main roast and they have it on tap as their cold brew option. The atmosphere is great and the staff is super friendly. It's definitely a good place to get a bite to eat whether it's in the morning or afternoon. They specialize in empanadas which are incredible but also have a yogurt dish that great as well. You can't go wrong with this place! The owner is super nice, this is easily my favorite Coffee place in the area

Nice small spot with a good amount of seating including outdoors behind the shop. The workers are very friendly and my matcha americano was great.

Best cafe on Pico, one of the best in all of Santa Monica. Excellent food, fantastic coffee (and I’m usually a harsh coffee critic), and great service from cute and professional baristas? Nothing better. Support Lo/Cal businesses!

My favorite coffee shop in the area.

Things you must try: spinach empanada, cheese empanada, almond cherry muffin and the Chagaccino. Seriously, I could live here.

Their specialty Honey Lavender lattes are also something to try. I like the Honey Lavender Matcha and the latte version is also a definite win.

They have a cute selection of wares including a great plant selection and one of the barista's makes GORGEOUS macrame hanging plant holders. 🌱♥️

The Honey Latte was good, not too sweet. Chicken and spinach empanadas were tasty...Good work vibe inside.

Dec2020: Rain or Shine, LoCal has the best Espresso pulls on Pico blvd!!!!

Great Baristas.

Favorite coffee shop in this part of town. Make a great latte. Street parking can be tough but there’s a park across the street making it very convenient and easy.

Is my first time there but it was cozy and very inviting I had a great time I was there for an hour and a half free crowd early in the morning for all the Santa Monica people wonderful and I tell you it's excellent and I'm going back there almost every Sunday morning everybody's invited
