The best place for breakfast on Venice Beach . Their literary sandwiches are spot on and delicious! And there's plenty of people to watch. I always bring people visiting from out of state here.

Brian Andresen

Great service, great food, great atmosphere! I wanted to include a picture of my burger but it tasted too good to leave on my plate long enough! Love this place!!!

Joey Morrow

Great food! Go next door and spend $10 or more at Small World Books and they give you 10% off your meal. I dunnit.

Terry Adams

People watching and good breakfast . One of my favorite places to take visitors to get a feel of a busy weekend. The Belgian waffles and breakfast are good. Great place to stop for a drink too.

Ryan Rosario

I had the margarita . It was small and it tasted great to the point I thought it had nothing in it. It ended up being STRONG based on how tipsy I was after it. Best kind of cocktail !

Inspectah J

Probably the best place for breakfast on the boardwalk just try john denver omelette with pineapple and you shouldnt be disappointed

Nelly Tejeda

Have a beer (or two) and a "John Irving"-Burger... relax and enjoy the sunset and some cool live music ... sourronded by the ocean and magic flair of venice beach !

Alisa Krutovsky

One of my ultimate favorites in Venice Beach !

Cocktails are small, taste great, but are STRONG. I was tipsy after one margarita and I'm not a small guy.

Amazing fries and $5 805 drafts . Check out the hidden bookstore , and mind the drunks.

Come out today between 2-4pm and meet the Rancho Escondido girls! Try this smooth agave liqueur , mmmm. And the staff at Sidewalk Cafe are awesome too! :)

Jerad Millican

The local beer "Hagar 24 IPA " has a bit more of a bitter bite than the regular light beer , but goes eggceelent with their artichoke dip ! :)

Thierry Michalak

Fabulous bacon cheese . Tips include

Demian Sellfors

So Ed is seriously one of the best bartenders I've met in the world. I've traveled the planet and live down the street. Lucky.

Nicest staff ever:) get their garlic Parmesan fries ! And a seat by the boardwalk .

Kayla Johnson

Decent restaurant , especially to people watch or for the ocean view /sunset

Awesome BLT club, great people watching

mitjamavsar

The waiter insisted on 20% tip and even said it’s a standard. And even wrote the tip on our bill. Don’t go here. Location and view on the beach is nice but the food tastes bad.

Rachel Mercer

Always crowded . For you best bet during the daytime head to the bar and eat there. The burgers are pretty swell.

Mikita Kot

One of the few places you sit and eat on Venice beach . The food is moderately shitty.

Victoria Menichetti

Better than the public beach restrooms
