We ordered catering from Huckleberry. We got Weiser Farms carrot tzimmes, organic latkes with apple sauce, sweet noodle kugel with gingerbread crumble, oven roasted Scottish salmon, Milo and Olive challah, and whipped apple honey butter. Ordering online was easy. There is a charge for delivery. The time we put for delivery was actually the time that the order was picked up. We were in no hurry so it wasn't an issue but good to know if you are having a meal at a certain time. Everything was packed very well and labeled. There was also instructions for reheating. The challah was so tasty and the apple honey butter was a sweet addition. The latkes were also good. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. We also enjoyed the rich and creamy noodle kugel. It came raw and needed to be cooked before being served. The gingerbread topping was so delicious on top. I love that addition. The salmon had good ingredients and they were very, very generous with the portion size. Although I wish they had added some sliced lemons for flavoring and a sauce to accompany it would have been nice. Loved the dill on top of the fish. However, the salmon was undercooked and very pink in many places. Perhaps if they had cut it up in smaller portions, it would have cooked more evenly. It did make a beautiful presentation but I didn't want to serve it like that. We repurposed it and made salmon cakes so I am not complaining. It did not go to waste. Additionally, the tzimmes needed to be reheated a lot longer than the reheating instructions said in order for the vegetables to be softer. Once I was able to get the cooking time right, the dish was scrumptious. It had sweet potato, orange maple glaze, carrots, and a pecan crunch. Lastly the apple tart tartin was delicious. We heated it up with some vanilla ice cream. Skipping the ice cream and reheating the tartine was not optional here. Ice cream was very much needed to accompany the sweet apples in the dessert and the warmth of the tart was a perfect accompaniment. Just heavenly. Overall, there were a few hiccups but we enjoyed our Huckleberry catering order and are happy we chose them to cater our celebratory meal. You can tell the ingredients are quality and the food is made with love. read more

I had an extremely disappointing experience. I waited 25 minutes for a single breakfast item, even though the restaurant was practically empty. It turned out that they had completely missed my order, yet no one even bothered to apologize. When the food finally arrived, the seasoning was off, and the flavors were poorly balanced. The food quality was just as disappointing as the service. Waiting 25 minutes for a forgotten order with no apology or acknowledgment is simply unacceptable. Overall, one of the worst dining experiences I've had. I would not recommend this place. read more

The food was wonderful. I had a fried egg sandwich but I was able to have my eggs over easy. Coupled with crisp bacon and Tillamook cheese. The flavors hit the spot. Usually they don't have table service. You place your order and they bring it to you. I'm disabled and wonderful Natalie came to our table, took our order and brought it to us. My husband had his favorite, a slam breakfast. 2 eggs, bacon and hash browns. He likes his bacon well done and his hash browns crispy and that's what he got. We'll be back! read more

I love this little bakery and cafe. I hadn't been there for a while so I decided to stop in today while I was waiting at the car dealer for a service appointment. I decided to get a ham and cheese croissant and I have to say it was outstanding. It was very buttery and flaky with just enough cheese and plenty of ham. Eating that croissant helped pass the time till my car was ready. I can't wait to go back and have some more delicious treats. read more

I walk by this breakfast diner alot; so decided to try it out. The food is above average. The bacon thick and crispy and the scrambled eggs were dense and cooked just right for me. The biscuits were also good but not great. Prices are very high for below avg portions. A notable negative is the dining area is very small and cramped but they do provide some outdoor tables.

Very cute location. You order at the counter and take a seat. They had a lot of bakery items that looked really good. We tried the coffee cake which had a coffee icing that was delicious. The breakfast burrito was really good! I loved that the has browns in the burrito were crispy. I got an iced matcha latte and it honestly just tasted like milk to me. It was more on the pricey side than what I would pay for breakfast but it was good!! read more

Huckleberry Bakery & Cafe is a nice spot for the locals in the area to stop in for their morning scone or coffee and muffin. They offer a variety of baked goods and pastries. Plus, they offer hot menu items made to order. It's a fast-casual restaurant like so many in L.A. Order at the counter, pay, take a number and hope there's a table once you have done all of that. It gets busy and it's the kind of place that folks like to linger. Tables inside and sidewalk tables in the front. Staff is walking around clearing tables and doing their best to keep things moving along. All of the staff I encountered were friendly which I appreciated. Metered street parking available and a parking lot in the back with a back entrance into the cafe. read more

Order Caramel Latte which doesn't taste like caramel at all. Just like regular coffee, also the coffee is not strong. Tasted flat after minutes. And they served me coffee without straw or they expect I will drink out of the jar??? Food is okay, BLAT tasted nothing special, sourdough was cold when it got to my table. I dont think it worth for $23 for a sandwich with no side of salad or fried. (Forgot to take a picture of BLAT) Ambient is a little bit awkward when you have to sit next to the order line. read more

I have visited several times, usually on the weekend when is it crowded. I understand that during very times, places are not always able to give 100%. For that reason, i avoided posting reviews.

Very good pastries... never had a miss yet. This is a Santa Monica staple and for good reason! Fresh farm to table food and expertly baked goods. The staff are always very attentive and friendly. They also bring the food out very fast considering how ultra busy they always are. The only thing to note is it can be a bit noisy if that's a concern because it's a very small place packed to capacity. If you try and come at off hours it's more pleasant. read more

Ordered the Huckleberry Breakfast, and like other reviewers mentioned, the food isn't anything special, and it's also extremely overpriced. The cashier recommended this item, but there's nothing that really sets it apart from a regular ol' breakfast you could make at home. The toast was also a bit hard. On a better note, the staff are all very kind and helpful, and the outdoor seating is pleasant on a sunny day! read more

OMG. My wife got full before finishing her fried egg sandwich, and I was so glad that I was able to taste the bliss! I had the Huckleberry breakfast, and it was standard, not disappointing, not climactic. My son just interrupted my typing to interject that his hash browns were good. My daughter says the quiche has a unique flavor combo, but delicious. Service standard for a deli type set up. Enjoyed the outdoor seating, swaying palms and meandering clouds created a relaxed time. read more

Huckleberry Cafe is a very warm and cozy spot in Santa Monica. The staff is helpful as I was trying to make a decision for a 2nd pastry and she said she liked the cinnamon roll. I was in a rush after an appointment to grab something quick for breakfast so opted to go with the pastry counter options. One of the best items continues to be the maple bacon scone! It's everything you imagine it to be with being both sweet and savory. The next time I have more time I'll stop by for some of their hot items for breakfast/brunch. read more

I visited on a Sunday to meet up with some friends and ordered the Huckleberry Breakfast which comes with eggs, bacon, hash browns, and a biscuit with butter and jam. The biscuit was warm and the jam was really good! You order at the counter first and then the staff helps you find a table. They have both indoor and outdoor seating available. Just be mindful of street parking as some nearby areas require a permit. read more

This is a super popular spot in Santa Monica as the breakfast and brunch food is delicious and decently healthy! They use organic ingredients and everything tastes super fresh. It's a decent selection to choose from whether you're a vegetarian or meat eater. For seating, it's first-come, first-serve so be prepared to hover and jump on a table when you can, particularly as the outdoor seating is limited but not impossible to get (better to come here with a smaller party size). Unlike most restaurants in Santa Monica, there is luckily a free parking spot in the back. Good place to meet for a brunch! read more

Cheerful atmosphere and equally cheerful staff. The food tasted great and arrived surprisingly quickly. My cappuccino was excellent and the eggs/avocado/toast combo hit the spot. Only downside: the small fruit salad was pretty underwhelming for $10. If my wife had been with me, she definitely would have called that a rip off. read more

Everything was fresh and delicious. Try the lime bar and green eggs and ham. Sue is the best!

Super cute cafe, the aesthetic and service are really nice. I also enjoyed the flavors of the food, but knocking one star due to the portion size you get based on the price you pay. The beet and carrot juice was $6, and it was smaller than a small glass. The huevos rancheros were $20, but you only get two tortillas with two eggs. Idk but the I felt the portions were really small for the price. Overall nice though, you can expect to spend $50 for two people for breakfast, which is quite a bit for a cafe imo. read more

I just saw that I wrote a review back in 2012 - Dang! Congratulations for being able to navigate the perils of the hospitality industry in Santa Monica! I had a cheddar chive scone and a chocolate croissant this morning. I'd love to re-experience that first bite of each. The flavors were complex and well crafted. I'll say it again 13 years later; I love Huckleberry! read more

I never thought that I would give five stars to a business that screwed up my order so badly but here we are! I was in the area and decided to go in for sandwich and coffee. Once we placed our orders and sat outside with with the number 22 on the table table our food did not arrive after waiting a long time. I went inside to inquire and spoke with the person who turned out to be the manager. He went in the kitchen and apologized and said our order would be there shortly. I went back outside and we waited a little bit longer and he personally brought two plates out. The only problem was that it was not our food! He felt terrible and went back inside and then came out again to ask us what we had ordered. I went back in showed him and when he asked pointed out the person who helped us. I also explained that I had no hard feelings and these things happen. He was extremely apologetic and so was our server. They both kept checking up on us after delivering the correct food. They offered us free dessert and to my surprise a gift certificate to return. To me this experience deserves five stars because mistakes can and do happen and it's a testament of good service how mistakes are resolved. I feel badly that I don't remember the manager's name but he was extraordinary because the place was absolutely packed and he went way above and beyond for us and was extremely apologetic and graceful. We sat outside so the ambience was that of a busy street but it was a beautiful day. We look forward to returning! read more

Super good! We came bc I heard Phil had been there before? I'd say the highlights were 1- the Coffee Cake, 2- the gf pumpkin muffin, 3- the breakfast burrito. Idk what was in the burrito exactly, but it has a lot of flavor packed in. I wanna say there's a salsa that comes inside that's pretty overpowering. That's my only critique, because it kind of dominated the other flavors. But thats ok it was still good. The chips were great as well. My favorite was definitely the coffee cake. I would love to try more pastries and bakery items in the future, maybe some pancakes. When we got there we were looking for a table big enough for 6. Before we could figure it out, a server spotted us and said he'd take care of it for us. In a few mins we had a nice set up ready to go. Glad he took initiative to help us out! We came on a Sunday at 12 and there wasn't really a wait! Not bad at all for an LA brunch spot. read more

Let me just get this part out of the way: This place is expensive. OK, that said, let's chat. I came here for breakfast and ended up getting a vegetable grain bowl with eggs. My dining companion had assorted bakery products including a biscuit that was very well-made and tasty. For an order up place, the service was very good and they were attentive regarding coffee refills. The ambience itself is nothing to write home about - standard "order up breakfast/lunch/brunch place" setting. The food was solid, the coffee good, the staff nice, but I'm not sure it was worth the price. I personally just don't see it. That said, if you have the money go for it. If you're watching your dollars, I think there are places that give you more bang for the book. Don't get me wrong, the food was delicious, I'm just not convinced it was worth it. read more

Food and bakery not bad. I was in the area so I wanted to come back for the second time but I hate restaurants who charge extra fees for their employees (owners pocket) Won't be coming back. And you are allowed to ask for that money back, but the interesting thing is they charge $3.20 but the refund was $2.46. That is not going to break me but i don't charge my customers petty fees to get rich off so i don't like paying these petty fees. Just a pet peeve of mine! read more

I've know about Huckleberry since I lived on the Westside, and it remains a solid breakfast, brunch, or lunch spot. During peak hours, it can be a bit of a scene, with long lines and a bustling seating area. However, they do offer both indoor and outdoor seating, and usually I do not have a problem getting a seat if I'm visiting solo. The service is efficient if somewhat impersonal; you order at the counter and then they bring your food to the table. However, with their mix of excellent baked goods and menu items such as their pancakes and fried egg sandwich, I always leave satisfied. read more

This cafe serves all day breakfast from 7am to 3pm. I got here on a rainy day at 10:30am and there was a long line. I was meeting a friend for brunch and we were able to get a table relatively quickly despite the long line. The wait was well worth it! I got the green eggs and ham biscuit sandwich. The green part was chimichurri sauce which was flavorful and delicious! It went perfectly well with the soft eggs and the savory and sweet ham all topped over crusty and warm buttermilk biscuit. Their house sauce (Huck Hot Sauce which you can buy) was really good too. It wasn't too spicy yet flavorful. I also got the house coffee and they do offer free refills. The sandwich came with two halves, and I took the other half home. The price is high but the portion was generous. I couldn't resist picking up a dessert/pastry to-go since they all looked so appetizing. I got the upside down cornmeal cake and oh man, I had it for afternoon tea and it was divine! The cornmeal wasn't dry and the flavor was a bit tangy and with just the right amount of sweetness. I loved it. I can't wait to go back and try their other entrees such as the brisket hash, breakfast burrito, and the market vegetable bowl. The interior is casual and noisy. There is a parking lot in the back and metered parking on the street. I can tell this is a local favorite and it is now one of my favorites too! read more

The manager was beyond rude and asked me to leave our table while my family was ordering. He said it was first come, first served for a table and since we hadn't ordered, I needed to leave. The remainder of the restaurant was clearing out,so I didn't see a reason why he was telling me to leave. Rude! The food was awful and I can't recommend skipping this restaurant enough!

This random Sunday morning I was waiting for FedEx to open, decided to grab a coffee and maybe something fresh baked from this highly recommended shop next door. Boy was I surprised! The ambience far from a relaxed coffee pasteri, had a "high" multi functioning vibe with a long line for orders at the one cashier. The efficiency by the staff hustling to maintain crowd control, impressive! I decided that due to the acoustics,way out of my comfort zone, to order takeout. I'm thinking this is over rated but maybe Sunday morning isn't the best time to try something new. read more
