Board House is a wonderful coffee and study place! Their menu is very inclusive which I appreciate you can choose from a wide variety of milk and flavor options. I also love their food although I'm more of a coffee person I'm drooling most of the time I stop by. I am currently loving their Nutella Cold foam. I've never had anything I didn't like. I also love to go there when I have to study or have a big work project to work on. The staff is superb and very friendly! Most of setting is the inside but lots of options and outlets. There are a few tables outside. Love the vw bus and the surf board! I highly recommend them! read more

Board House Coffee might've suffered a little from me coming off a streak of really stellar coffee spots recently, but I still thought it was a solid choice overall. We tried the sesame latte and the banana cream top latte. Both were good, and the cream top was really nice, but I just wish the sesame and banana flavors came through a bit stronger. The drinks tasted a little milkier than I was expecting. Good flavor, just wish there was more of it. read more

Board House Coffee - bagels and smoothies - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Board House Coffee is a humble, cozy yet warm coffee shop run by a nice group of folks. The times I've been here, the place has been busy constantly making coffee or making breakfast items on their small but productive mini grill. There's 8 tables along with some counter top seating where people can work - they even have a printer you can use (like a Kinkos). Coffee taste good and priced fine. Looks like they may use verve coffee. Breakfast sandwich will hit the spot as well. Decent amount of plaza parking read more

When a place has regular coffee that's this good, you can usually count on everything else being good. I like this place, great smoothie options, other breakfast/lunch items. Nice unassuming friendly service. Reminds of how places were in the 90s. read more

Tako is the best!!!! Great service good coffee nice friendly plus she is great person!

WHEN: Sat @11:30am PARKING: Since it's in an outdoor retail center, they have a shared lot with free parking, but I would imagine it being limited. SEATINGS: + About 5 tables that seat 2 outside along the sidewalk/walkway. + 1 Counter facing out against the window that seats 2-3 + 5 Tables indoors that seat 1-2 + 1 Large tables that seats up to 6 + 1 cozy chair in the corner with a tiny coffee table for 1 I see outlets along the wall and under the counter seating sounder top. Such a great place to work, and they don't play their lovely music selection too loud. Also there are single panel blinds along all the windows for us to adjust if it gets too sunny...so thoughtful! Very chill vibe, mom n pops kind of feel. Nothing fancy, but you know what, it provides everything we need. They serve all coffee beverages, smoothies, tea, snacks, pastries, and breakfast and full lunch meals! Oh, and they even have a printer here if you need something printed! Don't feel like interacting with a human being, they have a digital pad you can input your order and pay! Here's what I got: COFFEE - $3.50 Reasonably priced coffee! For just $0.85 more you can upgrade to a large (I wish this was listed directly beneath the coffee listed on the menu). But I can always get a refill for only $1.75. Apologies but I'm not a coffee connoisseur so I can't tell you if it's good or not. I just need the caffeine and my admission to stay and work. WiFi - I respect there being Wi-Fi available only for paying customers. As in, the Wi-Fi password is on the bottom of your receipt. I found mind in the link of my email receipt! Not hard to find! The staff seem quite friendly and very hardworking. You can smell and see all the goods they are cooking up behind the counter. I can totally see myself coming back to to get some work done with the option of food when I get hungry! THIS SPOT PROVIDES!!! read more

I stopped by here one morning when my mom was in town and I got a smoothie, which was very fresh and well priced, and my mom got a latte and a croissant. The croissant however, was absolutely extremely stale and made me question if I was safe having eaten it. The seating for this shop is pretty limited. The shop was always relatively busy, so most of the tables were in use during the time I was here. It looks like it's also a spot where people come to work (I believe there was a printer here, which could really come in handy!). I'd maybe pass on food if I came here again because of the croissant experience, but everything else was fine and this seems to be a solid local coffee spot. read more

I got a S'mores Latte which was delicious! It even had little marshmallows and marshmallow swirls toppings. I liked the vibe of the cafe with the front of a Volkswagen microbus attached to the wall. The almond croissant sadly was dry af. And no almond paste inside. read more

I found this place via Instagram -- a coffee account I enjoy posted about it with a rave review and wanted to try it! It's a small spot with charm, indoor seating, and some seats outside. The menu is extensive -- lots to choose from! I ordered an eggnog latte, which had a great balance of coffee and eggnog; and a delicious bagel with lox. Everything was wonderful and very delicious! Service was quick and I was able to get a table inside the cafe to enjoy everything. I'd come back again! read more

love this coffee shop. I don't do anything fancy, just a regular coffee, splash of oat milk, and a little bit of lavender flavor. but this is my favorite spot in the area read more

Board House Coffee is easily one of the best cafés I've been to in LA. I've checked out quite a few spots, but this one stands out for its friendly vibe and comfortable atmosphere. The baristas are especially kind and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. Definitely a café worth visiting! read more

Spent 8$ on a coffee with old oat milk. Threw it away it was just awful. Do not order horchata latte.

Went here after work the other day. The coffee was real good, like strong but not bitter. Please got this chill vibe, kinda beachy feel. The guy at the counter was nice. Gonna swing by again soon. read more

Yay! Found a spot that opens early and is perfect on my way to work for solid food and drink. I love their iced matcha with oat milk and honey lavender with the vegan wrap (added mushrooms).

Fast kitchen short on servers. Only 3. Busy lunch. Everyone working hard. Maybe some new ones, Food was very good. Been here several times. Good location for sit down meal. So many traditional breakfast lunch driven out of west side? Closed in last 30 years. Nothing like this from the 405 freeway to the beach. If you have time and Not expecting drive thru eating speed at a walking come here. read more

Cute in concept. Too expensive to be waiting 15 minutes for an americano that's too watered down by the time I get it to want to drink. Ucla kids on most of the tables. I'll stop by again to try but mostly a bummer and I don't even want to finish my drink read more

Came to this nice coffee shop on a Friday morning. It was hot in there which was a bit uncomfortable. Good thing I took my drink to go. Service was great I placed my order and it was ready within 3-5 min. My toffee latte was great it was the perfect balance of coffee flavor and sweetness. They have inside seating for those who need a place to study or do work. read more

This spot can be a little too laid back. However, if you wanna go to a place where you don't wanna interact with humans, go here. I walked in for the first time and two people were behind the counter. They didn't greet me or anything. There was no one in line at all. I ordered at the kiosk where it said order here...Food was good. I got the fried egg avocado. There were a handful of people working on their laptop and when I went to go sit down, several tables were dirty. Too chill for me but food was decent for a quick bite. read more

Board House Coffee - Looks basic but it was good - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I stopped into Board House Coffee after a morning errand nearby and ended up staying way longer than I expected, in the best way. The vibe here is super relaxed but not boring. I ordered an iced oat milk latte and it was perfect. Not too sweet, not too strong, just really balanced. There were a few people working on laptops and some casual conversations happening, so it felt welcoming without being loud or chaotic. Lots of natural light and outlets if you're planning to stay a bit.Overall, a new favorite in my neighborhood rotation. read more

This is one of the best açaí bowls I've ever had. No notes, 10/10. The coffee was mediocre though. I had a caramel latte and it did the job but the caramel syrup was a bit disappointing. The shop itself has some indoor seating and it's got its own parking lot. I'll definitely be back for the food, but not for the coffee unfortunately. read more

Board House Coffee - Acai Bowl - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This coffee shop is a gem! It's pretty non-descript outside. The decor is mildly kitschy, but not offensively so. We love the classic VW surf van front that is mounted on the wall. The menu, the staff and the whole ambiance are unpretentious. The food is delicious and this cafe provides a good, fairly-sized serving for the price. It's a cute find. read more

A big no for this one. Went with a friend for breakfast. There was a big dog, off-leash, jumping up to the counter, and at one point went back to where they were making food. The dog was coming up to the table, sniffing us and our food. I asked the owner to pull his dog away from my friend (she's been bit a few times) and he became the biggest baby. Passive aggressively stared at me for a half hour. These were clear health code violations. This was not a service dog. It wasn't trained. And it wasn't on leash. Management did nothing. read more

I have driven by this coffee shop more than 1000 times and decided to stop in today to try the coffee as an alternative to Starcrooks Pikes that I usually get all over. I don't drink coffee every day, only when it's an emergency like it was today--I was tired and needed to work at my desk on tedious things to wrap the week. I only get my coffee black, nothing added. You can really tell the quality of the brew this way. The woman that helped me was not friendly--I tried to pump her up right away with my usual "Hi, how are you?" Did not help. Ordered the coffee on the board @ 2.95, was rung up for almost $4.00 and questioned it--she said she gave me a large (without asking), I said I thought it was only 2.95, and she re-rung it and served it. No thank you to me, I did not know who to give the cash to after she gave me the coffee, so I just put my CC in the machine, and asked the other woman for the receipt (see pic) because none was offered. Just did not feel welcomed or valued--something was wrong. I don't think they understand or will ever understand the value of hello and goodby--it's not the culture of LA, it's what I hate about LA, and it's reflected here in the service I received. I entered my email in for their points club. Anyway, it's all about the coffee really: The coffee they use is Verve: www.vervecoffee.com The coffee tasted good. I really liked the physical cup that it came in a lot better than Starcrooks or most other places because it had a little door that you can open and close. (see pic) Even with the service--I would have given them a 4-star review--but here is reason that I did not: I know exactly the effect Starcrooks black coffee same size has on me throughout the day no matter where I buy it in the USA--If you drink a Starcrooks Pike Black just 2/3 a cup will charge you up for at least 8 hours. You will be wired. I usually save 1/3 for the next day. But the Verve--as good as it tasted--does not have the same level of caffeine in it--4 hours after the entire cup I was dozing at my desk. Like I said--when I get a coffee it's an emergency so I need serious infusion of caffeine. If you don't need that rush--try the coffee out here. It taste good. The inside of the place is not bad--plain--quiet, bunch of people sitting at computers right on Santa Monica Blvd. Some seats outside--local 20 something crowd mainly. Free easy parking lot shared with other businesses. read more

I've came here a handful of times. Most times have been fine. But I just ordered a açaí bowl for over $11 and it's about 90% toppings. I'm not sure if this is normal but definitely not worth what I paid for. read more

I was hoping I'd see some cute glazed donuts that I see on the top photo of this business, but be aware, there were no cute donuts. I instead got the raspberry Danish and a pour over to go with it. Not a fancy place, more practical than what you might expect from the top photo. Yes, I was disappointed that it wasn't cutesy here, but I did very much enjoy the pour over and Danish. Plenty of metered parking around the block and they have parking on-site as well. read more

11/5/21 Quality/Quantity - Golden Chai - My daughter tried the special which turned out to not to her preference or liking. It was turmeric flavored and she added oat milk. House Coffee - Nothing special, it is just house coffee... Atmosphere - Good and clean. Bathrooms were also just okay. Service - Okay. He was very quiet, not social at all. He offered short quick answers when my daughter asked questions. He was patient with her, but kept doing his thing - so I'm not sure if that is a good or bad thing. He seemed to work hard since he never really stopped working. We watched at least 1 regular come in, he did not interact with her much either, and she was very social. Price - $9 for the 2 drinks Owner Suggestion - We were there for approximately an hour, the last hour before closing. You had around 5+ customers. Not the usual busy time for coffee, but not bad. Wish you the best. read more

Parking in this plaza can be a little tight (best for compact cars), but thankfully we went early in the morning when the lot was mostly empty. The interior has a fun design with a VW bus front-end that makes for good photos. The menu had a reasonable amount of items, but this is not a proper sit-down breakfast plate with omelettes, egg skillets, etc. You order and pick-up at the counter. There are a few small tables, one larger table, and some stool & counter seating. I ordered a bagel & lox, a pina colada bowl, and a cappuccino. Pricing was reasonable, though I thought the bagel & lox was a couple dollars overpriced. The bagel & lox was pretty tasty, but over-seasoned. The amount of salmon was minimal, but the bagel was toasted nicely and the cream cheese was generous. There was also a good amount of veggie toppings. The pina colada bowl looked amazing with its bright blue sorbet. I can't say it tasted like pineapple or coconut, but it was tasty. Good amount of berries and granola with a bit of coconut flakes. The cappuccino wasn't great. It reminded me of a Starbucks capp, but thankfully not as much of a burnt taste as Starbucks. It just had a slight amount of burnt flavor, and a somewhat weak topping of foamed milk. A good barista with a good frother and good milk can make a thick, creamy topping. It wasn't horrible, though. Not nearly as bad as a Dunkin capp. Overall, not bad. Pretty good food and mediocre coffee. read more

This is the second time to visit Board House Coffee. My first review I gave a 1star as I was served 2 year old expired chips with my sandwich. The owner reached out to me via Yelp, he was generally concerned and apologetic. He was professional and accepted my review with the intent of checking expiration dates of future chip inventory. He asked me to come back for a complimentary meal. I was back in the Santa Monica area and I did go back. The owner offered great service and instead of one complimentary sandwich, provided two. They were delicious and quickly made. My daughter and I also ordered the Thai tea which was equally as good. Thank you Board House for taking criticism and redeeming your cafe! read more
