Good Stuff

Crema's Take

Good Stuff captures that rare beach-town ease where serious coffee craftsmanship meets laid-back California vibes, drawing devoted locals who appreciate thoughtfully sourced beans without pretension. The shop has earned its loyal following by nailing the fundamentals—consistent espresso work and genuine hospitality—while maintaining the kind of unpretentious atmosphere where you're equally welcome lingering over a pour-over or grabbing a quick cortado before heading to the beach. It's the kind of independent spot that becomes a neighborhood anchor precisely because it never tries too hard to be anything other than genuinely good.

Good Stuff is one of my favorite breakfast chains in Los Angeles. I have been to the RPV location, but this is my first time at the El Segundo one. I was happy to see it was just as pleasurable to dine in and the food was just as good. Our server was also very friendly and everything that we ordered came out very fast. Parking is also very easy. There’s a large lot right out front. Inside is pretty large and the tables turn fast so there never seems to be too long of a line. For this visit, I chose a special which was the Chile Relleno Omelette. It was honestly really good and covered with feta and I would highly recommend. We also got a Cinnamon Roll and that was wonderful as well. I was happy to see they used glaze instead of cream cheese frosting and I would definitely get it again. Overall, it’s a great option for breakfast or lunch and stop in at any of their locations if you get a chance.

Found this spot after searching for places to get gluten free brunch and I am SO happy it led me here!! Food was amazing and there are so many great gluten free options. Everything we had was delicious. Beto was our server and he was so kind and attentive!! I hope to come back again soon!

We happened to be in the area and stopped in—and the name really said it all. From the pancakes to the burgers, everything was truly 'Good Stuff.' The vibe is a perfect modern take on the classic diner, and our server was fantastic. A great find!

Overall, it was decent. The food was food, service was pretty fast, and comfortable environment. Only docking a star because our food was served without the meat part. A classic breakfast was supposed to be eggs, protein, potatoes/pancakes. They brought out a plate of eggs and pancakes with no protein... Good amount of street parking with indoor and outdoor seating.

I am in town for work, and I found this restaurant because I was looking for something to eat near Dockweiler Beach (not sure I succeeded, but I digress). I dined by myself, and even though they were very busy, the wait wasn't long, especially since I declined to sit at the bar. Gil was my server, and he was politely friendly and appropriately attentive. There are many delicious-sounding menu offerings, and I decided on the Carne Asada and eggs, plus one pancake, and coffee. The coffee wasn't my favorite but it was fine once I doctored it up a bit. My food was good as well, but the pancake was my favorite part of my meal. It was light and fluffy and the syrup was light as well, very tasty overall. I wish I had gotten a breakfast taco and a stack of pancakes, instead 😅 The meal overall was good; I would come back.
