Menotti's Coffee Stop

Inspired by the classic Italian coffee bars of decades past, this cafe was founded to bring a sense of community and quality to Venice Beach. Over the years, it’s become a local institution, known for its friendly vibe and commitment to craft. The shop has garnered a loyal following and regularly features in lists of LA’s must-visit coffee destinations. Their mission is to make specialty coffee accessible and inviting to everyone, while supporting local artists and the broader creative community.

Baristas here are skilled in both classic espresso technique and modern coffee trends, ensuring each shot is balanced and expressive. The menu features everything from perfectly textured cappuccinos to inventive seasonal specials, like the off-menu Spanish Latte or rotating house-made syrups. Drinks are served in sturdy ceramic cups for those staying in, with thoughtful to-go options for beachgoers. There’s a small but curated pastry selection to complement the coffee. Attention to detail and consistency make each visit a treat for coffee lovers.
