The Source Café — Restaurant in Hermosa Beach

Mocha ($5.50): it's probably the most I've splurged on a Mocha but very tasty nonetheless. Nice REAL chocolate flavor with a lovely heart-shaped froth on top. I can definitely see those more health conscientious folks flocking to this location due to their extensive paleo-friendly pastries, matcha lattes, various salads, and cold pressed juices.

I told the guy at the counter that there’s no point in listing every ingredient on a package if you don’t list EVERY ingredient and it didn’t seem to make a difference to him. On the plus side they do have...

The Source Cafe (est 2017) is a popular and fun little breakfast spot right on Pier Avenue in Hermosa Beach. It has a cool vibe, lots of fun things on the menu, healthy smoothies, and baked pastries. Interior design and layout were brilliant with abundant natural light.

We came on an early weekend morning to grab breakfast; it was my first time at this cafe. I was warmly greeted by a male staff with a smile. I ordered an iced coffee and avocado toast. Both items were solid. Breakfast AT was delightful and healthy. Services were spot on. Prices were fair for the area. Plenty of street metered parking.

Overall, this cafe is a good spot for breakfast. I...
