Caffe Luxxe - Santa Monica
925 Montana Ave, Santa Monica, CA
Crema's Take
“Nestled on Montana Avenue, this roastery brings genuine Parisian café vibes to Santa Monica with exceptional single-origin beans and authentic French pastries that rival dedicated bakeries. Visitors rave about the precise execution—whether it's a perfectly balanced Americano or a buttery chocolate croissant—paired with the welcoming, efficient service and comfortable indoor-outdoor seating that makes it easy to linger.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program, matcha and tea options too. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Pastries and light food on the menu. Dog friendly.
