First time trying this place and I was pleasantly impressed. Delicious cold brew! My husband tried both the mocha and the matcha iced and was also very pleased. The staff here are so friendly. I would recommend checking this place out if you haven’t had the chance. It’s in a plaza with other things. Next door is even a delicious Mexican food spot. There are a few benches even if you need to sit to wait for your coffee or to enjoy.

Maps and website say it opens at 6:30am but standing outside at 7 and still closed. Morning coffee denied. Worst way to start your day :/

Went during covid to buy whole beans and a cappuccino. The employee (didnt catch his name) recommended a bag of beans to my preferences but accidentally gave me the wrong one. When I realized it wasnt what I asked for, I went back politely and let him know and he ended up giving me a free bag of beans! That is amazing customer service, I will definitely be coming back and am bought into the brand now!!

High quality coffee with a price to match. Chic white decor with uncomfortable seating.

Pretty good mocha but on the expensive side. Very cool interior and highly recommend to come here for studying with relatively fast wifi.

Amazing coffee. My current fave is the Muscovado (sweet & smooth). Also, the pretzel croissant is 👌. This location is always fast and theres hardly a line/wait (even while the store is closed for COVID safety measures). Props to the staff making quick and safe to get our caffeine.

Blue coffee is known for its unique interior and fun brand identity. And the Culver City location is one of the most exciting Blue Coffee locations to come across. Its near the hidden gem of this area: a park/shopping plaza that is quant and perfect to grab a coffee kick back and relax or answer some emails. The staff at this location are super friendly as well. And as always good strong coffee. Especially for those who like the bold flavors of coffee and not sugary coffee drinks. I like both, but sometimes you need the bold coffees to really charge your energy for the day.

This is by far the best blue bottle coffee ☕ in the Los Angeles area.

The best breakfast in CA. The kids were hungry, the place was packed and no one was leaving as it was very rainy outside. I was ready to order and stand to eat, but soon someone left and the food came wonderful and so was the coffee. My kids, my mom and I could not be happier. I wish they had one in Chicago...so good!

Review №24

Blue bottle is expensive, so no point in talking about that or the good quality of coffee. This review will focus on the entire experience. They have put effort in designing the seating and the white decor looks classy. I wish they had just regular chairs and tables instead of bean bags. I frankly have no idea where do shop owners get this idea that people like to sit on uncomfortable bags without any back support. Or maybe its a strategy do customers leave once the beverage is over and they can have a high turn around. Maybe this is also the reason for the shoddy wifi. Its almost criminal to charge 6 bucks for a coffee and then provide wifi with 2G speed. But then, they also know that no matter how terrible the entire experience is, hipsters will continue to flock. 3 stars are strictly for the coffee quality.

Just had a fantastic Flat White coffee. Usually use Soy milk but they made it with Almond Milk. The texture of the micro foam was perfect and the coffee excellent. Also had a breakfast bar which was also great.

Review №27

I’m a blue bottle fan, and I drink a blue bottle coffee at least once a week. This morning I went to get coffee with my boyfriend at this location. He ordered a drip coffee and I ordered a almond milk latte. Usually I get my coffee before him as it takes a long time to make a drip. He got his coffee before me and I needed to wait around 10 min to get my coffee while I rush to my work, but hey I get it it’s not a Starbucks I will wait for a good cup of coffee. While waiting a woman that was also waiting for her coffee and ordered after me was screaming on the phone inside the coffee shop near the waiting counter. When my coffee was finally ready she literally grabbed the coffee from the barista confirming its her almond milk latte and left. I told the barista that was my almond milk coffee I was waiting for and I ordered before this woman. She answered by saying “I didn’t see another almond milk latte order” while I clearly was charged for it. after she realized she had another order from the other woman she quickly made my latte which was COLD and not as good as a usual blue bottle coffee. I left to work with a cold coffee and a terrible start for my morning. Next time please make sure you know who you making the coffee for as you ask for names in the cashier!!!

San Fran third wavers. Nice loft space. Bar 9 is not far away though and, in my opinion, has a better everything—except parking.Dont forget to park in the garage across the street and validate.

Review №29

Small but cute spot. Coffee is pretty good, individually brewed in a pour over. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Indoors, the tables are low and the seats almost resemble ottomans. There is also a large staircase where people sit and work or talk. Sometimes quite crowded, so seating isnt always available, especially on colder days.

I am writing this review as I sit upstairs at this exact Blue Bottle location. Blue Bottle is Blue Bottle so I wont write about the coffee. You already know what to expect.This location has a clean and modern interior with white walls and light wood throughout. I have passed by this location a lot and I always thought that it would be a good idea to do some work upstairs. This is actually a bad idea because they dont have real tables/chairs upstairs -- only big bean bag-like chairs with no back support, tiny white tables, and floor cushions. WiFi can also be spotty since they dont have their own network and you have to connect to the plazas WiFi (open and unsecured). On the bright side, they do have a back patio with some real tables and chairs if you want to go outside.In conclusion -- stop by for the coffee, but dont plan for a long stay!

I hadnt had truly good coffee in days, and then I found this place. Dont miss it if youre in the area. The balance of all flavor and mouthfeel aspects of their coffee pour-overs and lattes is rare to find.

I am a big fan of blue bottle coffee. I use their coffee for my daily espresso and other milk drinks. It was really great to visit their cafe and see their baristas. I really respect such businesses who put a lot of efforts to bring the best possible products for their customers. Keep it up!!BTW, I really liked your mug created by Created Co but it was a bit pricy for me to buy.

Amazing, the cappucino is the perfect balance of steamed milk and coffee. The flavor of the coffee isnt masked by the sweetness of the milk. On a hot day you cant beat the New Orleans cold brew.

Nice coffee shop with great coffee. Unconventional but comfortable seating. Small back patio. Seats in the front window. Reminds me of Intelligentsia in Venice Beach.

Drove all the way here and was excited to try the coffee...but they charge $1.25 EXTRA FOR ALMOND MILK! So I walked out of line. Ill never understand why I and the majority of the population continue to be punished for a dairy intolerance. I guess Ill never know how good this coffee is unless I bring my own almond milk one day. I mean...I can get almost an entire carton of it for $1.25. Who do they think they are?? :(

Review №43

The ambience is in fact superb. Imagine sitting at the Apple store, sipping on coffee without having to bother to examine the Apple devices.The coffee, on the other hand (since this is a coffee shop and not an Apple store), is worse than Starbucks. The acidity of their coffee can likely dissolve bodies and shouldn’t be intended for drinking. Brr, still gives me the hibby-jibbies.

Newest location for Blue Bottle coffee. Its located @thePlatform in Culver City,CA. The space is small, but they have both upstairs & outdoor seating. The latte was good, a bit milky for my taste but Ill ask for less milk next time. They had the most amazing Roasted Orange poundcake, I know roasted orange? But trust me it works especially with a latte or coffee.
