Quant cute little coffee shop. Good, friendly vibe. Got the white chocolate raspberry truffle coffee and my goodness I fell in love. Highly recommend 👌

Amazing latte!!! Thank you guys so much!!! Hope you guys last another 30 years!

Great spot for a burrito and espresso to start a beach day! 👍Parking on street and free 15 minute spots if your lucky 😃

Excellent experience. I came today to enjoy a hot 🔥 chocolate and si noticed zi forgot my wallet. Rick was so generous. He treated me. How generous and nice. Thank you Java Man!

I stopped by to get an iced chai latte, but was intrigued by an iced peach tea. The tea was lovely and refreshing! I also ordered a banana chocolate chip coffee cake - very good and not too sweet/dense. I knew what I wanted to didn’t feel rushed but when the line gets long, they seem to rush you in a bit. I don’t mind it, but some may find it off putting, so if that’s the case, check the menu online in advance! (Which you probably already are if you’re reading this lol)Very pleasant atmosphere!! I was able to spend a good amount of time reading. Not quiet enough to have a virtual meeting, but you could get some work done here.

Had the best latte in hermosa so far over here.Friendly workers

Love the Mexican mocha . Great selection of goodies to pick from. Definitely a must if your in the area. Im visiting from palm Springs ca

Great local coffee shop, reasonable prices and great snacks.

Had a Chai Latte which was excellent!

THANK YOU, Java Man!Fast service. Tasty beverages and fresh eats. REALLY pleasant staff. There was a bit of a line when I arrived and I wasn’t sure I wanted to wait. But they got through it fast, and my drink was prepared perfectly. I’ll be back!!

There nothing like Java coffee! Awesome service and location!

Great coffee. Great breakfast. Great employees. Stop thinking about it - just go there now and get a coffee and a breakfast burrito. And Go Kings Go!

Love their passion ice tea! Good, friendly service.

Coffee pastries..the best of S Bay...

Good coffee, but I won’t be back thanks to the adolescent signs complaining about masks. Disappointing.

Best coffee muffins burritos Etc around havent been here in a while Ive loved them since the day they landed in Hermosa. Great views of the top of peer of all going on up and down

I love these guys! THIS is a neighborhood hangout. Good coffee - breakfast burritos 🌯!!! pastries & muffins- secret donut days - great open outdoor patio- dog friendly- What’s not to love?

No shock there was a line out the door, the drinks were so refreshing and uniquely flavored. The service was nice and fast with really decent pricing.

Amazing coffee, food and staff! Outdoor seating allows for good spacing but is a little limited. Walkable right down the road to the pier and the beach.

Nice sides with your coffee...!

Great espresso, great cold brew, super fast and nice! I’ll be back

Best coffee and bakery goods in South Bay hands down. Early am Joe fix and surf check on the daily. The two guys who work there in the AM rule.

Great trashing coffee. Many choices of coffee and pastries, even some sandwiches. The decor is nice with paintings by local artists on the walls. Parking is the only issue I have with Java Man. Parking is limited and there are parking meters.

Only 4 stars....and not their typical 5 stars.....since their ownership has decided to close everyday at 3pm. Hopefully they will extend the hours as LA county reopens up.

This us a fantastic coffee hang. Its been in Hermosa forever. Its perfectly placed to hit during the Fiestas. And its great for a Sunday morning relaxing coffee.

Quality neighborhood spot

Great place that feels like home

Love these guys. Good drinks and food.

My review is exclusive to their pastries and coffee. This is a friendly neighborhood coffee shop which makes a really good straight forward latte. The gentlemen at the front are very hardworking, welcoming and give a good service with a smile, which is makes this place better than most hipster coffee shops I go to. Both the hot and iced version of lattes are good, not too strong or milky. They offer other drinks including americanos. They also have various milk options including Soy and Oat milkThey also have a decent selection of pastries and muffins and bagels. I tried their cinnamon roll and coffee cake. The cinnamon roll had too much glaze and raisins (who puts raisins in a cinnamon roll?). I should deduct stars but I think that would be biased so I wont. The coffee cake reminded me of the ones served at a LAUSD school cafeteria. It brought back memories and made me smile. It was hot fresh and not too sweet.This would be a great place to catch up with a friend since it has an assortment of tables and couches along with tables outside. I have seen people get work or studying done. You can also get food here and I will give an updated review once I tried it. However, note there is no public restroom, since its on pier ave, parking can be hard to find, and this place gets packed pretty quickly even at 9am on a weekday. So if you plan on coming here to get work done, come early. Otherwise, you are better off taking your drink and enjoying it at the Hermosa Beach Pier.

Java Man was MADE for writers like me. Its a cool and hip, but real java joint that always serves great coffee, tasty munchies and big smiles. This breakfast/lunch stop-over attracts all sorts of people which makes it a great space for people watching. Me? I enjoyed writing while living in Hermosa Beach. In fact, I started my latest novel #SeductionAtDaybreak while sipping their Columbian blend and eating their breakfast burrito (just remember to ask them to cut the microwave time in half; itll save the roof of your mouth ;-). I miss you guys. Cheers, JAVA MAN!

The best place to start your day! Turkey burrito with cottage cheese is my favorite now!

Excellent friendly service, great coffee, breakfast burritos, muffins, coffee cake and whatever else you see. Always fresh. Go to Hermosa Beach in the morning and check it out. ☕🌴🌊😁

Great local coffee shop just steps from my Airbnb. Friendly, fast service and great cup o joe. The photo is my early morning view..

Customer for 30 years! They are doing an admirable job. Too bad the governor is putting so much in their way. Stay in business, Rick! Saturday morning walkers will be there!

Good coffee with relaxing atmosphere. Saw a lot of people chilling and working on their laptop inside.

Pleasant service and delicious coffee

Great coffee, atmospheric spot right by the pier. Visited every day while staying in Hermosa Beach

Great environment

You know sometimes when the coffee is good, but the atmosphere just doesnt vibe? This is what this place felt like today. Definitely a very busy, popular coffee shop especially with the locals. Its a bit larger than most coffee shops I enjoy, and lacked that cozy/intimate vibe. If youre into the more open and busy environment while enjoying a cup of Joe, then you may truly enjoy it here. Different strokes for different folks. I felt very rushed during deciding which pastry and coffee to try, since my first time here and they have 3 chalkboard with menu items written very, very tiny. I decided on the chocolate raspberry latte with a coconut pastry. The coffee was actually very tasty, but I would opt for a different pasty. The pastry was overwhelmingly sweet and had a dense cake on the bottom. They really cater to the vegetarian/vegan community and have an assortment of friendly options for sandwiches and pastries. Good coffee, just the rushed environment and overly sweet pastry left a bad aftertaste.

Great location and service. The coffee tasted good and was served right away. Comparable prices to other coffee places. Nice place for outdoor seating.

They have chocolate de abuelita ❤❤ cheesecake is amazing

Super cute coffee shop. Friendly service. Awesome baked goods.

The coffee is excellent! However, almost all of the muffins and pastries are gluten free or fat free, which is only fun for the locals. The service is very good.

I write for a music and coffee blog called Crooners In Coffeeshops, in which I interview local musicians at local coffeeshops. My writeup reflects the positive experience that I encountered at Java Man on our interview date.For those who love the sea but hate the overbearing crowds that Venice and Santa Monica draw, look no further than Hermosa Beach. Sure, you’ll find your trendy restaurants and boutique shops that tends to find a home in any beach city, but you will also stumble upon classic gems like that of Java Man Coffee House. The 1920’s bungalow style cafe automatically feels like home when you step in through the doors with vintage warm neutrals and pops of color, oldies dancing around your eardrums, fun coffee themed artwork and decor, and the friendliest and quickest staff that I’ve met in the South Bay area. With an extensive drink special and food menu as well as a variety of seating areas outside and inside, including an adorable nook area complete with comfy couches, the possibilities are endless for whatever type of experience you are looking for!

This place is another Hermosa beach staple.. great coffee and coffee based drinks.. they also offer morning Breakfast Burritos..The building is a very old Hermosa house and it has a true charm about it..Its a popular place weekday and weekend..

Great coffee right by the beach and pier. The workers are really cool and they are always in a great mood! The art on the walls always changes and is usually pretty impressive. They have a tiny bathroom way in the back that isnt marked. Get an ice coffee :)

Good atmosphere

Java Man is the best. Ive been patronizing Java Man since it opened way back in the 1980s. Every inside table has an electric outlet next to it, so you can plug in your laptop, e-pad, or phone if youve got work to do.They have a wide variety of hot and cold drinks to choose from and a wonderful selection of various types of food from the sugary morning treats to go with your coffee or tea, but they also have healthy victuals as well for more health-minded folks.I just wish they had an electric outlet outside so I could plug in my electric bicycle. It only costs about 8 cents an hour to charge. Id give them a dollar to charge my bike. Thatd more than cover the hour or two that Id be there.

Friendly, fast and tasty

My buddy said we were going for breakfast burritos and coffee and I was on board! Java Man is pretty tight spot and has a Locals Only feel to it but do not be intimidated! There is a grab and go feel but slow down and you can do it. My buddy had the chorizo burrito and I had the Turkey. He LOVES his as he goes semi-regularly and I Loved mine too, fantastic salsa. They are modest sized, but sometimes you dont need a huge breakfast and the price is spot on at under $5.Word to the wise, I was in need of a large iced coffee and was not made aware that large is really JUMBO, so look at the size chart before ordering. They have all the coffee fixing so no worries. Such a cool California shop!Great spot for a quick breakfast with an incredible value!!!

Some super duper tasty coffee (and mocha!) with a good selection of pastries to choose from. Super friendly staff who make to order. Its a great place to meet up with others, with ample seating ranging from couches to bar stools. If youre looking for some sunshine, they also have an small outdoor space. Java Man is well liked and frequented by locals - with good reason!

Best coffee house in the south bay. Great seating areas, fast free internet. Great outdoor seating thats Pet friendly. Really great food. The best staff that knows their customers and appreciates them too.

Great little spot with a friendly staff and a great vibe. A variety of sweets and wide selection of caffeinated beverages means you can find that perfect sweet/savory pairing to start the day. Walking distance from Hermosa Beach also makes this cozy cafe the perfect place to grab something warm to enjoy during a stroll through the sand on a chilly morning.

Java Man is an awesome locals spot. Highly recommend the everything bagel... its exquisite

Excellent coffee been a customer for years.

They made me a rather tasty sugar-free hot chocolate even though it wasnt on their menu. My wife enjoyed her veggie burrito, too. Looked like a nice place to sit and talk or work, wish wed had time to stay.

Awesome staff! Oh and they have delicious coffee and food.

Love Breakfast Burritos!!

Chocolate orange delight 🍊 ☕️ is literally worth a stop from across the country!

Best go to place in the morning before starting your day. Absolutely wonderful staff!

Great coffee and service

I give it 5 for the following: the coffee is awesome and they have a decent refill price. The place is laidback and its a great place for the laptop lifestyle for sure. The food is awesome, reasonably priced. Muffins especially. Great outdooe area if you can snag a place to sit. The two guys who run the show are cool.

Located just short of the ocean in Hermosa Beach, Java Man is a great place to sit and relax, read a book, surf the web, hangout with a friend, or just enjoy one of the many coffees choices that they have. They also have a nice selection of pastries, food entries if your hungry.They always have art on the walls for you to enjoy while there. If you are in Hermosa Beach, I recommend to stop by and get a great cup of Joe!

Without question the best coffee shop in the South Bay, and its not even close. Only place in town with a good vibe, great food/drinks, wifi and very chilled staff. I do work there a lot, but its just as easy a place to sit and do nothing as it is to be productive.

Even on a super busy day like Fiesta Hermosa, java man is just friendly, easy and good. Love their granola and burritos. Coffee is best in South bay for my money.

Easy going crew. Good prices. Good vibe. I miss it when I’m out of town.

We came here every morning during our stay at Hermosa Beach. Nice, friendly staff and atmosphere with that local vibe. You cant beat it!

This place is fantastic. i come here daily. it is close to home and steps from the pier and yhe strand. great freshly made mango juice. perfect hot cocoa. and amazing pastries too.

Its all I needed. To be able to sit down with a Tea (Darjeeling) Latte, a delicious browny, my laptop and some quiet.Its nice, you dont pay for the Hermosa location; you pay for a down to earth coffee shop with super friendly hosts, delicious drinks and outstanding home made baked goods. (And Its cozy and not full of yuppies.)

Fantastic coffee and food from a caring and wonderful local place.

Local. Friendly. Excellent coffee and pastries. Please skip the corporate shops and support this great little place.

Super nice staffs and great cold brew.

Old school coffee house vibe with casual seating. Good assortment of pastries.

Always good coffee, breakfast menu, friendly service and places to park yourself while u enjoy your coffee

Great Hermosa Beach experience. The guys working behind the counter always greet you with a smile and conversation and there is a little nook just for what youre looking for in and outside this quaint coffee spot.

Old house turned cafe with funny and sweet guys behind the counter. Good espresso and homemade style sweets and quick eats.

Consistently delicious. Hard working & smiling staff. All baked goods are fresh from Ocean Diner & soo yummy. Walnut Brown Sugar Coffee Cake, Cinnamon Sticky Bun, Mixed Berry Muffin, and if you get there early enough, grab a breakfast burrito and fresh squeezed OJ. I love their school lunches too. My personal fave is the fresh Tuna sandwich, served w/chips & an apple. Get in at 3pm & take advantage of their happy hour, buy 1 muffin/coffee cake, get one free. Oh and the Monkey Bar. Hmmmm, now that is heaven.Support local businesses. The coffee, teas & service at Java Man is 100 times better than the corporate chains down the street.

Love it love the serbise and especial the coffee!!🥰😍🤩💖❤💗⚘👍👌

Nice service, delicious cookie and coffee, quite a bunch of chairs and tables outside and inside, reasonnable pricing.

Great local coffee shop. Outdoor seating with shade, wide selection of pastries and breakfast snacks.

Always worth a visit. Love it 😍

Love this place! Great coffee and excellent customer service! They deserve 10 stars! 😎

Small coffee shop, great people. Greeted with a smile. Nothing but love for this small mom and pop coffee shop!

Great local coffee shop! Every drink Ive had is great. Support your small businesses!

Nice local coffee shop with good scones.

True Java homebrewed coffee in a colonial old-dutch Surabaya Johnny atmosphere

Super friendly staff and great service, coffee, muffins, bagels and more always something to eat for bfast on the way down to the beach!

Great coffee cakes, neighborhood vibe, an array of coffee and cold choices, latte was fine

Loved the orange chocolate delight and they have the best breakfast burritos.

Amazing local coffee shop! been around since I was a kid and never fails to provide great coffee, pastries and service

Super friendly staff, cozy vibe indoor and outside, excellent coffee, quiche, muffin, oatmeal & burritos!

Had the Mexican Mocha and carrot cake. Both of them were delicious. The staff was very welcoming and kind.

Great Americano, great breakfast burrito. If youre here on Saturday, get the donuts. Do it.

Delicious coffee, burritos, muffins, and more! Great vibe too!

I have a company volleyball tournament on the beach bright and early this morning at 10 am. I havent been to Hermosa before, and was grousing I would have to give all my coffee money to Starbucks. My consternation grew with every mile closer to the beach. When the Uber took an unexpected turn, I noticed a cheerful coffeeshop that commensurated with my hopes of a half decent breakfast. I asked the driver to end the trip. And seethed as I got out and crossed the road.I hold alot of credulity in my fellow yelper recommendations and in my usual fashion, there was the impetuous desire to check the Yelp Highlightz. Breakfast Burrito...get it while supplies last wrote one comrade. The staffer informed me there was no paucity in the menu and so I opted for the burrito as opposed to the more salubrious items on display. The salsa is fresh and sublime.Java Man is a laudable spot in the South Bay. When in Hermosa, one must strut sagaciously. I goad you to try this place.

Always come here for my morning cup of joe. Staff is friendly and the coffee is good. Lots of seating available and great to sit and relax. You can bring your laptop, they have free wifi. Take it to-go and head down to the beach.

Great coffee and the staff are all awesome. Skip the Starbucks and support a business that truly earns it every time youre there.

Be careful if you have a nut allergy. I asked for the regular roast and was given the pecan roast. I have a severe allergy to tree nuts and had to call emergency services.

I enjoyed a nice house coffee here. This place reminds me of the coffee houses in Santa Cruz.

You either know about it or you dont. Once you hit Hermosa/Redondo area its all youll hear about for coffee and rightfully so. Place is awesome.
