Love this neighborhood gem. Smoked salmon is made in house and to die for. Friendliest staff that makes you feel right at home. Super chill on weekday mornings and more lively on the weekends. I love coming here before work for a healthy breakfast. Also they have an incredible European deli. Long live shoops! read more

Fantastic service with smiles and a clear desire to please customers. The owner makes you feel at home. The food is delicious and amazing. They serve breakfast all day which is perfect. Their salmon is one of a kind. Highly highly recommended. read more

I ordered the salmon scramble and the salmon tasted really fresh. The eggs and everything else went well together. I personally don't like onions, so l asked for no onions, and they got the order right. Salad and fruit were also good. It didn't feel too heavy for brunch. It's a nice place to have brunch with friends on the weekend. read more

Visiting a friend in Santa Monica, and stopped in for something to eat. One of the things I truly love is homemade chicken noodle soup. I always look for it on the menu, when I go out. This place had a good chicken noodle soup. It was a German take on chicken noodle soup. Different, but in a good way. Employees were nice and the place was clean. A cool little deli, with a large selections of treats. read more

Shoop's is a great place to grab breakfast or lunch. However, I didn't think the food really lived up to the hype. I ordered a turkey sandwich with a side of fruit. The fruit was a very small cup. I recommend going for a side salad or potatoes. Shoop's has a small grocery/candy section that is fun to check out if you want to take something home. read more

Great breakfast! Good size portions, reasonably priced, great service and it was nice eating outside. Great music also. Good family place to eat. Most seating for large parties will be outside. Inside the deli market it is mostly seating for 2. Dogs friendly place. read more

It's not often that I'd give a 5 star review for a sandwich but Shoop's European Deli on Main Street in Santa Monica filled my tummy with goodness today. After a visit to Dog Ppl, my friend and I and our two pooches grabbed some lunch at Shoop's. There are many German options, as well as other European treats to choose from. The chocolates, cheeses, and other goods make this a friendly, well-stocked fun place to eat. We shared two sandwiches. The Tuna Melt was delicious and served with yummy coleslaw. We also loved the BBQ Chicken sandwich with grilled chicken, bacon, cheddar cheese, avocado, greens, tomatoes, mayo, and BBQ sauce on ciabatta with the best German Potato Salad that I've ever tasted! I can't wait to back to Shoop to experience breakfast too. read more

We went for brunch and all got pancakes. It was a very welcoming space. We sat on the patio with our dog and waiter brought out a nice little chicken treat for her! They had savory pancakes on the menu and I knew I would be missing out if I didn't try them. I got the tomato basil savory pancake and it was so good! Pesto was light and the egg was cooked perfectly. read more

One of the most consistently good breakfast spots in Santa Monica. Don't think of it as a traditional deli, it is more so a breakfast and lunch spot that has a very large and diverse menu. One thing I love about this place is they have a lot of indoor and outdoor seating so whatever you're in the mood for you'll be able to get. Parking is also extremely easy, there is a giant pay lot directly behind the restaurant or you can look for metered street parking. Our waiter was extremely polite and everything that we ordered came out shortly after ordering it. Inside is pretty large, larger than it looks from the street, so they can host many different sized groups. For this visit, I ordered one of their most famous dishes, which is the Pancakes with Bacon inside it. As you would guess they were very good and filling, and I would order them again. They have a lot of great options on the menu so it's easy to get something new each time. I would suggest if you are in the area. read more

Came here on a Sunday and there wasn't direction on where to sit or meet host. We were seated after being asked if we would like to order. The roast beef sandwich was really tasty, coleslaw was delicious and Russian dressing complimented the sand which well. Potato salad was delicious, it had bacon and you really tasted the vinegar but overall it was a nice balance. The service wasn't the best, we had to wait to ask for water and we ended up just grabbing our own Togo boxes and went inside to pay. Good food but wish we had better service. read more

Reliably fresh, since they are always busy, so plenty of turnover on their extensive menu. I like their pancakes, just the right degree of fluffy and not bathed in grease. Smoked salmon is super smokey, but last two times I was there they were sold-out (a good thing, since it means they aren't keeping tons in the freezer). Great selection of gummy candies and other European packaged grocery items. read more

We got here around 12:30PM on a Sunday and they ran out of the smoked salmon :( definitely come here early to get it because it has to be good. We got the bacon pancakes, gravlax and the bacon cheddar scramble. Food was solid all around read more

Looking for somewhere to eat in Santa Monica that wouldn't break the bank I found this, but it was quite the walk. We decided to go for it cause who doesn't love a good deli. Stop in the way for coffee and continued on a long walk. It was well worth it There is a line for takeout. Or you could sit down and there was table service. We each got a sandwich and shared half half. The food was fresh delicious and amazing. I was pleasantly surprised by the soft flavorful bread. This is not gourmet or fancy just a solid, good deli sandwich Bravo read more

Many restaurants boast European style food but Shoop's really brings fusion to LA. Through their smoked salmon, it's a unique cuisine beyond lox bagels. The salmon pancake is a delicious slightly sweet and savory, with the dill sauce on the side. The salmon baguette and the ham omelette are brunch staples they have not failed. The outdoor seating is very relaxed, we got seated immediately and got to enjoy weekend sun. In addition, the staff are super friendly and knowledgeable, they are so warm to welcome you and answers questions about the menu. Lastly, the interior of the place is super cool because it's also a pantry store for all sorts of dried and imported goods. read more

How have we not seen this deli yet. It's been on Main Street for years. Our friend told us about Shoop's and had breakfast with us. It's a European style deli which specialized in pancakes. I had a scramble special and the others had pancake specials. Everything was delicious. Service was great. The restaurant had a nice cozy feel with great service. There are a few tables inside and a large seating area outside. They also have a cool little market with fun European goodies. My friend also ordered a beautiful cornbeef sandwich to take home for her dinner. There is a public meter parking lot right behind the restaurant. read more

Just such lovely sandwiches honestly! You can't go wrong with anything on their menu as every sandwich is fresh and flavorful. My friend and I ordered ahead through a call and we were able to pick up our sandwiches within 20 minutes. It was super easy to do so and our sandwiches were fantastic to-go options. Couldn't be happier with the staff members we interacted with. Everyone was so kind and attentive. I had the chicken pesto sandwich and it was perfect. The pesto was fresh, the chicken was perfectly grilled, and the baguette was just every bread lovers dream. Their portions are definitely hearty, so depending on the day I could eat the sandwich in one go or get two meals out of it. read more

A bit over priced . The hot cakes were a bit fluffier than anticipated, but was still really good , pastrami sandwich & pesto sandwich were both delicious . The service was excellent. Everyone was very friendly & kind . The dine in area is kind of small . The outdoor patio is a lot bigger . Parking is on the street . Paid 60 for the plates with a glass of OJ , The OJ was tasty , freshly squeezed . Nice little hidden gem . . read more

Shoop's New Owners: PLEASE CHANGE the bread you use for the "baguette" for your Salmon Baguette. It is so bad. It is just so dry. The whole sandwich is dry. I had to ask for a side of the mustard-dill sauce because it was like sandpaper in my mouth. The flavor of the salmon was great as always. But the bread completely ruined it. I wish I had ordered the salmon scramble instead. At least I would've gotten more protein instead of empty carbs that ruined the purpose of a sandwich. Also the pancakes aren't as good as when I used to live in the area 5 years ago. If you see pictures from 5-7 years ago, the pancakes were super crispy on the edges (means they use a lot of oil, but that's the style I like which is why I order pancakes here) but now they are like the normal kind with no crispy edges. Service is amazing as always. The waitresses and cashier are the same ones who have been here for 18 years or so. read more

Everything is delicious. We love the smoke salmon. I've the salmon egg wrap, and others in my party also have various smoked salmon dishes. We kept saying we need to come back after every bites.

pros outdoor seating is lovely, extensive menu, Nice staff Con's, got the smoked salmon wrap. The salmon is definitely the most smoked I've had, But also had some kind of sugar on it where The flavors were not melded at all. The wrap itself was tough and bready, The cheap kind. I didn't think the croutons really worked in the wrap. The fruit cup came in plastic. Like really? why are you exposing me to plastic for no reason? it's not to go. Just get a ceramic cup and put it on the plate. finally I was not informed that You go up to the counter to pay so I was just sitting there needlessly read more

Very rude lady cleaning tables and taking names. Instead of asking if we wanted to add our name to the list she shushed us off the table and said "move, this is for the list of names" and hand gestured us move it. I asked where the line was and she just said over there without direction. Then I asked what eatery does she work for and she pointed blankly and said " that one". This type of customer service is terrible. We left after this rather support another local business. As we walked away slowly we noticed no one ever sat at the table and there was no line where people were supposably waiting for a table. read more

Best Blueberry Pancakes & Airport Convenience! Shoop's is a Santa Monica classic, and they absolutely deliver. The service was professional and attentive.
