I came here for the Huevos Ranchos, and they did not disappoint. Delicious flavors and eggs cook perfectly. Enjoyed with a Flat white. Service very friendly and welcoming. Would come back again.

Another great place with vegan and gf options. Kabocha tacos were outstanding! Loved the drip coffee also and the avocado toast. Generous portions too and beautiful outdoor space. Cafe is quite popular so it was a bit of a wait but so worth it!

Parking is horrible, Staff although very nice people (I'm sure) they don't look like they want to be there... That's what killed it for me... Food is hit and miss, coffee is great, steak sandwich I got was awful... Not a good cut and was over cooked. The avocado toast was good... The salmon Toastie was great... The eggs were not cooked the way we asked... And honestly, it's way too expensive for what they offer... I would go to Leo and Lily down the street and get better service, better quality and better overall experience... (No affiliations to the them) Just an honest opinion...ExampleWhat would you expect to pay for...steak sandwich, mineral water, avocado toast with an egg and Salmon toastie...With tip it was $83Got a muffin and a latte after...Will try them again soon... Will update my findings...

Great place with wifi to work located in Topanga Canyons. Indoor and outdoor seating. Very relaxed vibes and cute selection of gifts to buy. Food and cafe was good

Stopped in for brunch. A mouthwatering menu. I was extremely satisfied with the outdoor seating arrangements. Majority of the customers sitting outside had a dog with them. Creating family, orientated atmosphere.

If you're hunting for a chill spot post-hike, look no further than Topanga Living Cafe. Inside, the vibe is cozy as can be, but heads up--it can get jam-packed, especially during peak times. Now, onto the grub. Eggs and potatoes? A total win! But the bacon? It fell a bit short, kind of on the soggy side. Haven't sipped on their drinks yet, but the place has serious charm. It's small, sure, but that just adds to its laid-back appeal. Topanga Living Cafe: the perfect spot to kick back after a day of adventure.

Scrambled eggs side - was super impressed by the technique to make these fancy scrambled eggs. It was fluffy, soft, and almost whipped. Presentation was beautiful. Soba noodles - This was an impulse buy after seeing this in the display counter. It looked tasty so I sprung for it! The flavors were mainly a soy marinade and sesame seeds on top. Some acidity using vinegar would have been a nice addition. The noodles were thick and hefty, not much of a chew to them but I still found them pleasant to eat. The small portion definitely filled me up.

Awesome vibes and atmosphere! The smoothies were really good a tad bit expensive but you are in the middle of a canyon. The coffee one with dates was good. Their matcha is good here too. Great place to get some work done.
Food was fresh and delicious the chicken sandwich was so yummy and the baked goods are a must. And loved the blueberry muffin. The service was friendly and the food came rather quickly. The outside seating is a must if you try this restaurant you will know why.

Have you noticed that your café is becoming less popular every day? It seems like you've purposely weakened the Wi-Fi signal to discourage people from staying too long. However, your café is not just any fast food chain. People enjoy coming here to relax, sip a delicious cappuccino, and indulge in your tasty food. Many of us who frequent your establishment are writers, creatives, or artists who need a cozy and comfortable space to work. Please reconsider your approach.

Closer to 3.5 stars. Overall a cute place to visit if you're in the area. Coffee was good and came out fast. Ordered a pistachio bun for $7 which I do think is overpriced but it was also relatively big but hallow inside. It tasted good but wouldn't necessarily order again. Breakfast burritos were on the smaller size. Would come again for the drinks and ambiance.
