Need a quick grab and go breakfast option? Offset Coffee has lots of coffee choices, a seasonal menu and breakfast goods. You can order ahead. Two locally owned locations (Torrance and soon-to-be El Segundo) in the South Bay. Enjoy and support your local business!

It was my first time there. The barista was very friendly. I got a hot hazelnut latte and an iced dirty horchata. The hazelnut had a mild sweetness and it was good. The dirty Horchata was amazing and they had an oat milk sub for the Horchata. They Got mech for the true supporters. There this sick tye dye I wana scope out.

So glad this place opened up- this area had been missing a good coffee shop. It’s not a big place, but they make good use of the space they have, both inside and out, and there always seems to be parking. Coffee and espresso are on point (they use Stumptown), and they have a rotating menu of specials, which are usually very good. I probably come here way too often.

I loved this coffee shop for reasons I will detail AND i strongly reccommend you guys go amd really taste the coffee and enjoy the excellent quality that thus far is displayed, in the face of personnel shortages and all the challenges that ...you know who is imposing on local retail business. Making the lives of average Californians more and more challenging.Anyway that said here are my veredicts:Great friendly hoid concept. No franchising. KudosNo adding waste to our environment with great, classy, elegant, ceram7c cups.Lean and mean Avocado toast and plain bagel.Friendly personnel. Please be kind to them and leave tips whenever possible.Music kool, specillay at the end and volume not too high.Wi fi ...kudosAreas of opportunity:Upper nanagment i suspect, could improve level of communication with great floor employees.Have a wider assortmebt of bagelsHire an additional employee, if excellent svc along with great sales are a pursuit.With much love....zI ll check the restrooms and report later.Restroom. Just one. GREAT. Please pick up after yourself. Thanksssss

I love this place the coffee options are great and it’s a relaxed atmosphere with both outdoor and indoor seating. They have seasonal specials and tasting flights. I really really enjoyed the dirty horchata. I also recommend hitting up their pastry selection. Don’t shy clear of the vegan donuts try them and any of the croissants (the guava one is a personal fave.)

This is by far my new favorite coffee shop. Service is great and the coffee is even better. They even were able to perfect my latte, making it the perfect balance of milk and foam which is no easy task with non-dairy milks.

Ive now been here twice, and while Im a pretty casual coffee drinker, I think this little modern coffee shop might have the best latte Ive ever had. Wow.

This is one of the best coffee shops in the Torrance area and the South Bay. They are a proud multi roaster cafe with amazing drink and bean offerings.I highly recommend the campfire mocha; I like it as a cap (8oz) with light mocha, and it hits home. You can not go wrong with anything on the menu.

Great ☕️ shop worth a little detour 🗺!Come for the lattes, flat white or teas, stay for one of their delicious toasts — from avocado to cinnamon.Excellent selection of coffee beans, too.Great addition to the extended neighborhood of our West Coast office. Will be back soon.

Any day you go, any season, they’re coffee is the best. My favorite has been the raspberry white mocha and the lavender honey latte! For a treat, their ABJ is amazing. Love them so much.

I’ve been coming to Offset since the year they opened. I can’t believe I haven’t written a review, until now. Since being a customer of Offset I have such a deeper love for coffee. Who knew you could learn so much about espresso (no “x” friends) and roasting. They have the best quality beans from local roasters including their own now. Their pastries and food items are just as delicious. The staff.....is also just one of many reasons why they have created such a dope community here in the South Bay that sets them apart from other shops! Premium Coffee-Food-Community is the trifecta for what you want in a coffee shop. It’s a must if you’re ever in Torrance, especially if you truly love incredible coffee. Cheers!

Absolutely amazing espresso quality! I’m not sure what blend and or single origin they were using that day, but fantastic stuff. Smooth, very low acidity and fruity. I’m an espresso freak, so I take my shots seriously. This is on my go to list now!

Fantastic coffee choices and pastries! Great service, reasonably priced, and extremely knowledgeable staff.. love this spot! Quick service when in a pinch and always worth the drive from Hermosa.. my go to is the oat milk mocha, but the iced Matchata (matcha/ horchata) is a solid choice as well.. always enjoyable!

Review №21

Such a great find! Just moved to the area and recently discovered Offset. Theyve clearly got a skilled team of baristas and whoever is ordering coffee is doing a great job - offering a rotation of roasters, Offset does a wonderful job of getting the best flavor profiles the blends and single origins have to offer. Get here!

Small, cozy, and local, this shop has become a favorite when I visit home. The baristas are all extremely amiable and amicable and greet you as if you were a regular. Tip- all pastries are 50% off an hour before closing time!

Specialty, artisanal crafted coffee with a selection of High quality beans from Oregon, Canada, and local LA roasters. Specialty chocolate as well. Baristas who take their time to make you the perfect drink and who also have knowledge of roasting. So thrilled to find a coffee house with a small, quaint decor and knowledgeable baristas. Also provides outside seating and internet. A hidden Gem.

New coffee place that just opened up few months ago. They have a lot of good coffee and brunch snacks. I had an iced latte and a cinnamon toast. Both very good with plenty of seating both inside and out. Parking can be a bit tight but theres a parking lot in the front. Great coffee spot!

My husband found this little gem coffee shop on our way to the Costco. He loves the cappuccino here and I always order the lavender or rose latte. Its rich and creamy with hints of the floral and a must try if you like lattes. It is a bit cozy and can get crowded at times but it usually passes fairly quickly. Great place for a quick coffee break!

Came for a cappuccino and they didnt disappoint. Delicious! My wife got a rose latte and she loved it. I liked it too. Normally I dont like rose flavor but this was surprisingly good. Apparently the lavender latte is also very popular. I am definitely going to try the lavender latte next time. The decor is nice and simple and they have a small selection of quality beans. Service was friendly and quick. Highly recommend this spot.

This place is great! Friendly, very customer service oriented staff. New place too! Been open for only like 4 months. Glad Starbucks was packed and tried this place. Had the Ricotta Honey Toast with a latte. Both were delicious. Later, barista recommended their Turmeric oat latte. Had me try and sample a bit before ordering. Was so good, had to have it hot. Definitely coming back to try any of their other drinks. Must try this place.

Minimal, modern designed coffee shop in an unassuming location. Parking is easy and there is indoor/outdoor seating. Easy breezy- but oh my gosh the coffee is sooooo gooooood! I got a lavender latte with oat milk (I’m usually a straight espresso girl) and I was blown away. Delicious coffee prepared right! They also have a ton of fresh pastries to chose from (try the guava croissant and thank me later!) And lastly, the employees are top notch- experts in their craft and also nice as heck. Next time I’m in the area I’ll be back!

Nice little boutique coffee shop on a busy road, parking can be hard during rush hours, but the friendly service and handmade drinks are def worth coming. I usually get their col brew which you can get either nitro or small batch. Ive had both and like them both. Lattes are great too & nice to look at.

Review №64

The coffee here is a nice welcome to the usual Starbucks, with its pretty presentation in the ceramic mug as opposed to a plastic cup. However, for $5, the cup was not very large, the roast was bitter, and the coffee itself was lukewarm at most. I was forced to drink the coffee, quickly, so as not to taste it cold, which does not work when trying to sit and enjoy a beverage. Generally coffee should be hot enough to not burn ones tongue, but still be hot enough to warm the body when ingested. The location is set in an unfortunate plaza, overlooking the boulevard, so the customer is forced to watch and listen to the ongoing traffic - thus further taking away from the much-needed calmness and relaxation many coffee lovers thrive on. Also, we had the cinnamon toast, (which was $6), and it came lightly toasted with buttery-cinnamon and some cane sugar sprinkled on top. For the price, I can make that myself at home, and have an entire loaf of brioche bread leftover. Overall the experience was not bad, but having had better gourmet coffees elsewhere, this place comes in at an average.

My first time trying this place today, i recieved a really warm welcome from a lovely lady named Joujou and first impressions were great, inside its really small but cosy nonetheless. A little on the pricey side but very nice coffee so worth it. The only down side is that i felt totally rushed, one of the servers made a point of coming to my table after an hour of me being there to ask me if i had finished yet (i still had a couple of swigs and like to sip my coffee not just gulp it down) i told her that i would be leaving soon and she said ok, no apology for disturbing me or offer of being welcome to stay. To top of this they never asked the guy next to me whose cup was actually empty. Im sorry but no one else was waiting for a table and the place was not busy - i was in the middle of a test online and literally felt that i would have to buy another drink or my only option was to leave.

Pretty good americano. Only wish is for a place that makes dark roast and espresso as good as Café Trieste in Fresco. No where in the South Bay is there anything as good as their coffee, Oy! 2/19-- Just had a pretty good mocha(not the overly sweet hot cocoa-ish $tarbuck$ kind) while sitting at their outside counter soaking up the warmish winter sun.
