This cafe puts us in a quandary and we still can't decide if we like it enough to go back or will give up on it. The cafe itself is lovely and it's a fun atmosphere in which to eat. Even the outdoor tables are very pleasant, despite being right next to busy Main St. The service is excellent, the... More

people in LA swear by the Urth Cafe, but when a place becomes a must, then you have to stand there in line sometimes forever to get some food or enjoy coffee. compared to first one on Melrose, this one is starting to function more as a fancy Starbucks.Don't get me wrong,they have very good coffee but I am not...

Its a bold statement by me (and my wife is in agreement as well) - but it is true. He's my take: - High quality Breakfast items - Nice sized portions - Healthty options - Fantastic coffee and bar drinks (Honey Vanilla Latte) Tip: Always busy, so ideally you have to go during the week before 7:30am. If not, welcome... More

You will live longer and not go hungry at this restaurant. Great healthy meal options, large menu, good portions. Very good informal place to eat.

Urth Cafe is located on Main Street in Santa Monica between Pico and Ocean Park (corner of Hollister). Valet Parking is offered as the street parking can be difficult. Urth has a very trendy crowd so at certain times of the day it can be so busy there is a 30 minute wait for a table. I love the grilled... More

Having breakfast at Urth was one of our most exciting and enticing experriences in the area. We wished we had more time to taste more dishes. Their bread is exquisite. Top quality ingredients, carefully and lovingly prepared for a superb experience. Delicious coffee. I happiliy recommend it.

Great veg/vegan food. Wonderful setting--two blocks from the beach. Worth the wait at the door. Yummy and generous desserts--really nice staff. Best coffee on our trip! I will go back every time I am in Santa Monica/Venice.

All their location seem to attract the same people- a bit egotistical in my opinion. Seems like people come here to be seen. That being said- the desserts are amazing and the food is decent. During busy times hard to find a seat and have to wait in line. Staff is friendly.
