Crema's Take

This Manhattan Beach gem is a genuine community gathering spot where the bright, spacious interior and thoughtful art create an upbeat energy that keeps regulars coming back. The kitchen shows real care across an inclusive menu—from the showstopping mascarpone cheese toast and perfectly balanced kale Caesar to hearty Japanese-inspired egg salad sandos and full breakfast offerings with vegan and gluten-free options. With friendly staff, ample parking, and a merch shop tucked inside, it's the kind of place that works equally well for a solo laptop session or a family meal.

Great environment, staff & food. Everyone in our group loved what they ordered. The mascarpone cheese toast was incredible! Will be back for sure.

Wow. The food is incredible and the people are wonderful. The kale Cesar is so well balanced and flavorful. The egg salad was great and reminded me of the hearty Japanese egg salad Sandos. Of note: The coffee cake was not my favorite, a little dry. Overall will be coming back.

This cafe has been a wonderful addition to the community. It’s a happy space with an upbeat atmosphere. The menu has something for everyone with access to kids menu and gluten frees and vegan alternatives. This is a great spot to meet, spend time with friends or grab a bite to go. Plus their meaningful mission of training students makes a stop here a tasty and worthwhile meal.

Wonderful atmosphere and tasty food! The inside is bright and spacious with a cute shop where you can get merch. The parking in the back is the best part because it saves you the headache of circling the block, particularly in that location. I highly recommend the chicken pesto panini with tomato soup, it’s seasoned just right and is very flavorful—a perfect lunch for colder weather! I’m going to be back ASAP to try their bakery menu. Honestly, this is one of the few places around the bay where I can say spending your money and time here is worthwhile and meaningful. Edit: I came back for the latte and pastries. Their coffees are really good too! The pumpkin spice lattes taste authentic and not at all like the syrupy artificial Starbucks one. Just a tiny bit sweet and smooth on the palate. All around a fantastic cafe and eatery!

Mychal's Café is a must visit for anyone in the area. The food is fresh, delicious, and reasonably priced. The atmosphere was comfortable and they have beautiful art on the walls. We had the breakfast sandwich with avocado and the pesto and sun-dried tomato breakfast sandwich along with their avocado toast. We will definitely be back!
