Crema's Take

“Mama's Kiss CAFE is a charming Santa Monica spot that doubles as both a serious coffee destination and a full-service bistro, with a genuinely talented kitchen turning out creative breakfast and lunch options like their celebrated Tuscan Toast and pesto-laden vegetable sandwiches. The welcoming outdoor patio and reliable wifi make it perfect for lingering over an excellent espresso drink, though consistency with special requests seems to vary depending on who's behind the bar. It's the kind of neighborhood gem where the owner's personality shines through and the food quality matches the coffee—just come with patience and grace on busier mornings.”

What to expect

Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Wifi.

The Tuscan Toast was so delicious! Great coffee too. Cute setting with outdoor seating. Great spot for breakfast or lunch and they have good internet too.

Delicious food and excellent service! The menu choices are creative with options for all dietary restrictions. Coffee was great, and sitting outside on the patio was lovely. The restaurant is super clean and the food was made to order with noticeably fresh ingredients.
