This is my FAVORITE Coffee shop in all of Los Angeles. Their coffee is truly amazing, and so are their pastries. The staff is extremely friendly, notably Jason, Jose, and Katie. I go to this place almost every morning after my workout. Everyone has their go-to coffee order, but mine is an iced vanilla latte with almond milk and light sweetener, and it's fantastic. I've ordered this same order at countless places around LA and haven't found one nearly as good. The line can get long, but you won't be waiting more than 10 minutes as the staff works super efficiently. Be prepared to spend $5-$7 for a cup of coffee, but it's worth every penny. I look forward to my morning coffee every single morning! I HIGHLY recommend you give this a try, even if you think you have found "your coffee shop" as I think Caffe Luxxe may change your mind. read more

The workers were so nice. The customers were all nice! The lemonade, as my daughter said "is so fresh!". And the coffee?! Crazy good. Iced oat milk lattes with an add shot are highly recommended. Oh, and the bathroom is very clean! And they sell cute cards and little things like fancy mustard. read more

Cute little village type coffee drop in spot with a few bar stools overlooking 26th street. They have lots of unique blends such as the Malibu brew which is pretty strong but oh so yummy if you're into coffee that has a jolt of intense flavor. It's a bit more pricey than your standard coffee shop even in LA, but that's to be expected in Brentwood. read more

First off, if I could give more than 5 stars I would! This place is a gem - not only is the coffee delicious but the staff is so welcoming and friendly that sometimes I come just to see them! I could totally make coffee at home but I don't because I love Luxxe so much and want to support them in every way! read more

Stopped in for a coffee with a friend after a photoshoot and loved this place. The guy behind the counter was super helpful and knew I was interested in a larger drink and adjusted one of the dessert drinks to a larger quantity. It was a candied orange/ chocolate flavored drink and was very yummy and aesthetically beautiful. Outdoor seating is plentiful and they even have bar stool style seating inside. With a delicious ice cream store right next-door you could enjoy a hearty affogato and spend a whole afternoon here chatting away with friends. Can't wait to come back. read more

Kids wanted ice cream and this mother of multiple kids needed something more to keep up with them for the rest of the day. Luckily, this coffee spot was right next to an ice cream place so it was already a good sign for me. The coffee place is not that big but there are few seats inside and outside. Although a lot of people were inside the line went quick. I got suggested from the cashier and got a latte. The cup was small and made me wonder how much caffeine is going to be in that thing but surprisingly there was pretty descent amount to get me through the rest of the day. The latte was so smooth and I barely added sugar but it was sweet enough that I think for the first to time ever, I used less than one pack of sugar. The coffee is so flavorful and wasn't bitter at all. It was bold, creamy and mild. This place is located in the Brentwood marketplace. A great find in Brentwood. read more

Caffe Luxxe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Monica, California

4.5 stars! I visited with my summer foodie crew (Alison H., Jasmine Y., & Jayleen Y.) with the intention of trying Sweet Rose Creamery. However, Caffe Luxxe has been on my "To Try" list for quite some time, so when I realized there was one right next door, I knew we had to stop by for coffee first. I ordered a cup of Costa Rica drip coffee, which one of the baristas prepared for me. The coffee was full of flavor & delicious. I enjoyed every sip. :D But what really won me over was how attentive the other barista was. For example, when one of my friends said she didn't drink coffee black, he immediately asked if she wanted to add milk to my coffee so she could drink it too. Also, since I was the only one who ordered anything, he turned to my other friends and asked whether or not they liked coffee. When they shook their heads, he said, "If I made you a latte to try, would you drink it?". This gesture shocked me (in the best way possible). And after adding insane amount of sugar, my friends declared that they liked the latte. Success! We ended up sitting in the shop for awhile while the coffee cooled (I burn my tongue easily). The space is a little small and seating is limited, but the large window provides ample natural light, and it's a cool place to sit and chat for a bit. Thanks Matt & Nick! You guys made my day. read more

Talk about a good strong coffee! I love the service, the ambiance and the KICK!!! I feel like I can seize the day with just one cup a day. ‍

Their iced mocha is my go to drink, not too sweet and the quality of their coffee and chocolate is outstanding. Service is fantastic, very friendly and helpful, drinks made to order quickly and perfectly. Prices are on par with other coffee places though I feel the quality and flavor here is far superior to large national chains. They have a few desserts and small trees available, though the coffee Alon is worth returning for, highly recommended! read more

The weakest Americano I've ever had. When I asked the guy behind the registered if that's the normal - he suggested to buy a shot of espresso ..... REALLY? The freaking Americano Large tasted like used coffee water ! read more

Caffe Luxxe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Long time customer! Love the vibe. They have 2 drinks I almost never see; the frizzante and the shakerato. If you don't know, now ya know!

My favorite coffee in LA! The espresso is amazing. I usually get the Gibraltar but have gotten other drinks as well. Nothing beats it!

Tried Caffe Luxxe for first time this week after spin class and have to say I'm a soon to be regular!! Parking: free 90 min validation (or 2 hour from SoulCycle) in their front lot is plenty. Ambiance: high class chic coffee bar but without the pretense. Staff: super friendly. First time there and wasn't sure what I wanted, they asked me a few questions and said let them take care of making the right drink (would make something else if didn't care for it). It was awesome!! Coffee: both their pour over coffee and espresso based drinks are fantastic!! Especially loved the Gibraltar. Food: nice chocolate croissants and scones. All in all, really awesome little coffee shop in Brentwood and can't wait to come back!! read more

This place has the BEST drip coffee ever. Make sure you get the house blend drip Be patent as it takes 10 minutes to make but way worth it and way better than Cliover style at Starbucks although it is costly The pastries are not bad. I had the chocolate scone But the star here is anything coffee coffee coffee!!!! read more

Best Latte in town. Generally god selection of tasty breakfast treats but they vary store to store for reasons I cannot understand with the Brentwood location on San Vicente generally getting short changed. read more

I got the matcha and my friend got a cappuccino to drink. To eat we got a panini and chocolate chip cookie. New favorite spot!!! The panini was so good! It's located in a cute area and it was fun walking around with our drinks! read more

I normally consider myself an espresso purist, but Caffe Luxe's "Caffe Nico" espresso shot with orange spritz and cinnamon puts a joyous bright refreshing twist to break the mundane! But a word of caution to the puritans, the "Caffe Nico" is more like a dessert coffee--it's (pleasantly) very sweet! read more

Haven't had coffee but I thought the hot chocolate was absolutely awful!!! Worst hot chocolate I've ever tasted! Even instant sugar-free Swiss Miss is better! read more

Just follow the "scentalicious" aroma on 26th Street & you will find yourself at Cafe Luxxe. Although I'm a tea drinker, I wish the aroma came in candle form! Excellent Matcha Latte - one a purist will appreciate. The Barista was very pleasant and talented. read more

so delicious. I ordered the blood orange muffin and an iced oat vanilla latte. Quick service and very good. The muffin was pleasantly tart and fresh. Coffee was not too sweet but still had a nice vanilla flavor. Worker was very good looking so that was nice surprise. Also hasnt made me shit my pants yet which most coffee does read more

One of the better coffee shops I have been to. Love coming here after a bike ride. This place is close to the very popular cycling meeting point at 26th and San Vicente. Great for a pre or post ride cappuccino. read more

I came in with a friend because i got some mailers for free beverages. It seemed too good to be true without any gimmicks or fine print! We went after 5pm on a Tuesday, and I showed the mailer to the barista and asked if we could use them. He said yes, and I could get any drink!! I got a pour over casetta (I think that's what it was called) and my friend got an espresso drink. The coffee was fresh and smooth. There were quite a few customers in there for being so close to closing. They close at 6pm. I would definitely come back if I'm in the area looking for a warm cup of coffee. read more

I'm very boring when it comes to ordering coffee... I'm just a black coffee kind of gal, but I must say that Caffe Luxxe serves great coffee. I particularly like their Casetta blend. It's a perfect purchase for parking validation ;) It gets a little crowded in here and find they never have glasses available for their water pitcher, but you can simply ask the barista for one. Staff is friendly and I love perusing through the greeting cards while I wait. Line does get a bit slow since people order lattes and such. read more

The best latte I've had in the LA area. Has a bit of a chocolate taste to it. It's a small space but plenty of parking and nice outdoor seating. Highly recommended. read more

Cute, homey coffee shop located in the Brentwood Country Mart plaza (2 hours free parking with validation!) that has friendly/upbeat baristas, a good selection of drinks, and cozy space inside and outside to sit and catch up over coffee. In need of a pick-me-up on a Sunday morning, I tried the Cafe Nico in hopes of it being comparable to Menotti's (located in Venice) orange coffee drink but sadly it did not meet those standards of intense flavor and strength. It was yummy, but if anything it made me more sleepy, lol. Might come back here to try other drinks as I hear a lot of positive reviews about this place! read more

This is hands down one of my favorite coffee shops in LA! Their lattes are always so delicious. And their iced coffee is unreal. It tastes so fresh and has an amazing bold flavor to it. I highly recommend ordering the iced coffee if you come here. I didn't even need to put any sugar or cream in it. I love the artistic designs they make for the lattes. I've had everything from a pretty leaf to a gorgeous heart. It is a nice topping and it gives an artisanal vibe to the coffee. I enjoy all the baked goods they have here too! The mini alfajores cookies are so delicious. It's an Argentinian cookie that is so delicate it crumbles in your mouth. It is covered in powdered sugar and the inside has this beautiful hazelnut flavor. I always buy these cookies every time I come here. If you're looking for a nice place to lounge on the weekend with a warm cup of coffee in your hand, this is the place to go! read more

Overly priced but oh do they make an amazing cup of coffee! I adore their delicate beautiful designs they place elegantly in their lattes and cappuccinos. For some reason it makes my drink feel extra special therefore I believe it tastes extra special. The caffe is always clean, their area where you pick-up napkins, lids, sugar and stirring straws is kept well stocked and organized. They sell, in addition to coffee, pastries and scones: kitchenware, French presses, gourmet jams, cards, organic soaps and lotions. and much more They have a nice visual presentation, I've constantly received friendly service and I appreciate the fact they have both indoor and outdoor seating. Do take in mind they are a little pricey but I also have to say I've never had a cup of coffee that I didn't absolutely LOVE. Whether it comes to drip coffee, lattes, cappuccinos or any specialty coffee drink you can't go wrong here. I'm telling ya these baristas know their stuff and can whip out a delightful cup of Joe that will send you on your way with a smile. read more

In recent memory, only one coffee roaster's espresso conjured memories of time spent in Italy. Trust me, it had been a futile effort trying to recapture that familiar taste, that is until I tried espresso from Intelligentsia for the very first time. All of a sudden, those fond memories of sipping caffe lattes at small cafes in Rome came flooding back. Well, here's the second occurrence... Located at Brentwood Country Mart, Caffe Luxxe shares a wall and patio with their neighbor, Sweet Rose Creamery. This location is a bit smaller than their location on Montana Ave but differs in two very distinct ways: 1) Overall vibe 2) Quality of product Overall vibe This location was staffed with genuinely friendly, ordinary people that make you feel welcomed, unlike the pretentious and proper found at their Montana location. Caffe Latte: 5/5 http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/caffe-luxxe-santa-monica-2?select=aT_7wBzgdXVY9GE8OIbCCQ#X8skX_ICyGDxnYV8LIB-Ug I don't need someone, some blogger, some website, or some publication to try and sculpt my opinion on espresso. A Louis Vuitton City Guide validating Caffe Luxxe as "Best in the West" has little influence on me. I know how great espresso tastes and I can claim that the caffe latte at this location was flawless in every way and frankly, obliterated the subpar one I had a year ago at Caffe Luxxe Montana Ave. To sum up my caffe latte: A beautiful bouquet that was intense and caramelly sweet, not acidic and finished super smooth with no aftertaste or sour notes. Essentially, the classic old world Italian caffe latte unadulterated by fruity notes or artistic fermentation. My compliments to the barista for pulling perfect shots. To think I nearly written off Caffe Luxxe based upon that visit a year ago. I'm sure glad I kept an open mind...but really, they can thank Sweet Rose Creamery for changing my heart by way of that amazing Caffe Luxxe Coffee ice cream. read more

It's LA. You need designer coffee to go with your huge designer bag, your itty bitty dog and your ridiculously giant sunglasses, right? Wrong. You need this designer coffee because it's delicious. It's pricey, but Caffe Luxxe makes a truly good espresso drink and their latte is just fabulous, dahling! These baristas know their stuff . Plus, they make lovely foam art! Other pretty things to look at include the fresh baked pastries, shiny machines and yummy packaged treats. They're located right next door to Sweet Rose Creamery in the Brentwood Country Mart and there's plenty of FREE parking. read more

Caffe Luxxe - Brentwood Country Mart - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Really cute place to grab a cup of coffee. There are high tables and little trinkets that you can look at / buy while waiting in line. The staff are super friendly, and it was really awesome to see how many of the regulars they knew by name. I ordered an iced americano with a splash of oat milk. I felt like their espresso could be a little stronger and at a place like Brentwood, they should have higher quality non-dairy milk alternatives (i.e. Oatly, Califia Farms) compared to the one they currently use (Pacific Foods). On the plus side, they do offer pastries from Milo & Olive which I highly recommend. Tips: -Free 2 hour parking with validation (always a bonus in LA) -No wifi - so while the cafe itself is cute to work in, you'll have to manage without internet read more

My friend ordered a vanilla latte with oat milk I got the same with regular milk. The sign said the milk is organic! They do great latte art, a heart. Forgot to take a pic. $5.50 for my latte. They greeted us quickly and drinks were made fast. At 10am on a Friday it was busy but we still managed to get a table. I found street parking $2.50/2 hours. Dogs are allowed. They have Lemon bars & birthday cards. read more

Cafe Luxxe is situated in an affluent area between Santa Monica and Brentwood. As such some residents don't mind paying the ridiculously high price for their coffee or espresso. Unfortunately their quality of coffee beans is extremely poor and subpar. After trying their coffee and espresso for several times, I reached the conclusion that the quality is consistently horrible and utterly bitter. I just don't understand the 5 star reviews. Either they must be made up/friends or have never tasted decent coffee or espresso. Take your business to the other side of 26th Street at Starbucks. At least you won't feel ripped off! read more

Cafe and location is a great place for a date. There were two workers working, one was extremely friendly the other seems like hes just chill and in his own world. So i can understand why others complain about customer service. Coffee is good. Better than blue bottle. read more

What a pleasant secret this coffee shop is. Tucked in the heart of LA with eye popping delicious coffee. Micayla was so sweet and helpful to help me decide the perfect order. read more

I came to Caffe Luxxe by mere chance actually. The HuYens (fellow Yelpers) made the trek to Brentwood with the intention of going to Sweet Rose Creamery and found that Caffe Luxxe was its neighbor. As it turned out, Caffe Luxxe was the more memorable of the two. Why? Olivia had ordered a Costa Rice drip coffee, so the rest of us were hanging back and waiting with her. The amazing barista Matt offered Jayleen, Alison and I a latte to try, since we hadn't ordered anything, free of charge. I was astonished at his offer. Not only was this latte free, it was delicious! Granted, there was a lot of sugar poured into it, but you could still tell it was quality coffee. Though I don't normally drink black coffee, I tried the Costa Rica drip coffee and it was pretty good! Once again, quality coffee. Thank you, Matt. I will definitely be coming back. read more

I love Caffe Luxxe! Their just plain drop coffee has such a robust flavor-- very strong, so don't order if you want something lighter! The pastry selection is small, but from Milo and Olive, so you know it's good! Don't expect to come here and leave quickly-- there is always a line! read more

Stopped in here and grabbed a small Americano to go. Just the perfect boost for me in the middle of the day.

The staff here was really cool, too. read more
