The Source Café
509 Pier Ave, Hermosa Beach, CA
Crema's Take
“Tucked in the heart of Hermosa Beach, The Source Café has cultivated a devoted local following by nailing the trifecta of excellent coffee, thoughtfully crafted food, and genuine hospitality—from their coconut oil-infused espresso drinks to their fresh-baked pastries and protein-forward salads that fuel the beach community's active lifestyle. The intimate, dog-friendly space feels like a neighborhood gem where you're as likely to find someone grabbing a perfectly executed iced chai before a surf session as settling in with friends over a satisfying frittata. It's the kind of place that earns its 4.4-star reputation not through flash, but through consistent attention to quality and a welcoming energy that keeps people coming back.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.

Very sweet little spot with amazing baked items and menu items. Delicious iced chai & coffee cake. The frittata was great but didn’t have sun dried tomatoes the day we were there. Welcoming of dogs as well with their two patios. My only issue would be that it’s a bit on the…
