    Cool restaurant with perfect location to the beach. A lot of good options on the menu to eat that are healthy and filling. Delicious coffees too! I knew I wanted to stop in when I saw they had chaggacino on the menu. I had Donnie's Breakfast Burrito and it was very big portion I ended up saving some for the next day. Good prices as well and nice service. Cute place to grab a bite in MB!

    OUTSTANDING FOOD!! The beekeeper latte and açaí bowls are SOOOO GOOD!!! The workers there are very nice and the service and atmosphere is great!!

    Great location, nice seating inside and out. Friendly service. Nice menu selection. Close to the beach. I ordered a latte and unfortunately wasn't the biggest fan. It kinda tasted like a cup of sweetened milk. Really wanted to like this place but the coffee fell flat for me.

    The Hive is such a great spot for a fresh, healthy breakfast -- everything we ordered tasted clean, vibrant, and made with care. We loved both the breakfast sandwich and the avocado toast -- simple, but packed with flavor and beautifully presented. The location is perfect, with ocean views right from the indoor seating area, which makes it an ideal place to start the day. The staff was friendly, service was quick, and the overall vibe was bright and welcoming. Next time we're in the area, we'll definitely be back.

    Horchata Latte

    Love stumbling across new cafes in the SouthBay! The Hive is a super cute cafe in Manhattan Beach. It offers healthy superfoods for breakfast, protein bowls, açaí, coffee, smoothies and more! It has both indoor and outdoor seating. There isn't a whole lot of seating, so not ideal for a large group. Parking was a bit challenging as I only saw street parking and not a parking lot available. Hubby and I got coffee and a little snack. I got the horchata latte and hubby got a bee keeper latte. We also got a sweet treat to share, a chocolate donut. The lattes were delicious and the donut..... probably one of the best donuts I've had. The service was great with friendly staff. I also love the brightness of the space. Bright vibrant colors! I'll be back to try one of their bowls.

    Getting tired of the usual coffee shops especially the commercial types (Starbucks etc ) I found this place to take my wife to. This is a jewel of a find. Their menu include protein bowls, açaí bowls, avocado toast and variety of drinks. I had an avocado toast while my wife has açaí bowl and mushroom cacao. The avocado toast was almost too beautiful to eat! But when I did, it was a fantastic contrast of flavors with its radish and pickled onions on smashed avocado and cherry tomatoes. The açaí bowl was just as good as anywhere else. The mushroom cacao tasted nothing like mushrooms. The ambience of the place is wonderful. We sat at the mezzanine with a clear view of Manhattan beach. Just too bad it was a gloomy day but still a beautiful beach view. I recommend this place especially for a quiet escape from the bustle of Starbucks and the like. and let's not forget how friendly the staff is! Big plus!

    Breakfast Bowl

    06-2025 I usually frequent the Hive in Santa Monica, but the Manhattan Beach location blew me away! The view and window seating create such a vibe--you just want to linger. I ordered my go-to breakfast bowl (no kale), and it was as delicious as ever, perfectly prepared. Angel, who was holding down the fort solo for a bit, deserves a huge shoutout. Despite the rush, they were incredibly pleasant, friendly, and efficient. Amazing food, great atmosphere, and top-notch service--Hive Manhattan Beach is a must-visit!

    Bee Keeper Latte & Avocado Toast
    Krissy W.

    The most perfect little spot. The staff was friendly and the view is amazing. The latte was just sweet enough and the avocado toast was yummy and filling.

    Came due to the high Yelp! recommendations for inexpensive breakfasts with vegan options. While I decided against the vegan options, the mocha & breakfast burrito were good- but they weren't inexpensive. I'd call it an average price for delicious food. But the service was great, and the view of the ocean was really nice. B+

    I've ordered the Hive's build your own bowl twice now as takeout and it's been super good both times ! Their steak portion is generous and perfectly seasoned. The meat is not too well done and is tender. Their toppings are well executed. I like their Brussels sprouts and broccolini. The ambiance inside isn't my favorite hence why I order takeout but I'll continue ordering to-go from here !

    Decaf iced Vanilla Latte

    Today we had the pleasure for a 2nd Saturday in a row to get drinks and today something to eat at The Hive!! This is one of the coolest spots with a very nice view while relaxing after a long morning walk! Service is fast and the food is delicious. Please stop in and try them out!

    This was exactly what we were hoping for - clean, healthy food, high protein options as well as GF options. It was a small shop and we ate outside...it great. We got a smoothie, a breakfast bowl & breakfast burrito and they were really good and tasty

    Sun God Smoothie
    Shanelle S.

    Cute, bright cafe with outdoor seating. Grabbed a smoothie with a friend and sat outside to bask in the ocean air. The service was friendly. You order and pay first, then they'll bring it out to you. They have a couple of spots for parking in their garage, otherwise, there's some metered street parking. If you order a smoothie to-go, it appears that you get more than if you drink it there, so that would be my tip. This place is on the pricier side but it's very health-focused.

Also, don't automatically assume you're ordering a low-calorie "diet" drink just because it's a smoothie. Some of these can be surprisingly high in calories, especially with all the nut butters, dates, protein powders, and add-ins. Delicious? Absolutely. Light and innocent? Not necessarily.

Then, when the crowd dwindled, I was pretty much the only one still there so, yeah they def forgot it. I usually don't like to say anything, but I also didn't want to be there any longer than I already had been, so I kindly mentioned I hadn't received my drink yet. They were ok about it, I guess (definitely not nice) and I get when an establishment is busy, sometimes orders can sometimes get lost or accidentally not added. Whatever the reason may be, I eventually got my order and it was definitely rushed. I ordered the Tahitian Vanilla Bean Matcha and it was eh. I'm sure it's probably better but literally very low effort was put forth to make it. I decided to give this place a second chance during the week, when it's less busy. I got an acai bowl, I believe the Brazilian and it was good. I got a drink also, but it wasn't very memorable. Overall, it was ok.

After that many visits, I can honestly say the quality and consistency are second to none. The food is exceptional. Everything tastes incredibly fresh, the ingredients are obviously high quality, and the menu proves that healthy food doesn't have to be bland or boring. Whether I'm grabbing breakfast, lunch, or a smoothie, I always leave feeling energized instead of weighed down. The service is just as impressive as the food. Every member of the team is welcoming, friendly, and genuinely seems to enjoy what they do. They remember regulars, make you feel appreciated, and create an atmosphere that keeps you coming back. Finding a restaurant that's both genuinely healthy and consistently delicious isn't easy, but Love Life Cafe has absolutely nailed it. If your goal is to eat clean without compromising on flavor, I can't recommend this place highly enough. It's one of the few restaurants where I never have to wonder if today's meal will be as good as the last--it always is. Love Life Cafe has set the standard for what a healthy café should be, and it has earned a loyal customer in me.
