Always been our go-to cafe in PV, because of the location and the tasty treats. Enjoyed a tiramisu dessert, hazelnut latte, and coconut cold brew this weekend. Perfect weather to enjoy the treats outdoors.

Used to be great but kitchen is closed due to COVID-19. Now its not so good but still extremely expensive. Hopefully itll get back to normal soon because it was really good before.

Everything looked delicious, but the guy serving ice cream had his mask below his nose, so I didnt get anything.

Oh my goodness I was not expecting this ice cream to be delicious because I dont like Nutella and not really a chocolate ice cream lover but well eat it on occasion but this ice cream was so decadent I think you guys should try it I actually wanted to go back and put some in a cooler on some dry ice this is how good this ice cream sandwich was now I wish I had tried different flavors but you guys should definitely go there and try thank you so much for a delicious treat

This place served me some of the best gelato Ive ever tasted. Paired with a cookie AND coffee and I was in heaven. Ill be dreaming of that gelato for years.

Very nice atmosphere, located at the entrance of the Terranea Resort in Palos Verdes, CA. A great place to have a coffee and pastry or a gelato or even a sandwich for lunch. You can relax and see activity around you. Quite a pleasant experience whether seated inside or out.

Coffee Shop on the court yard circle at the Terranea Resort. Wide variety of muffins, Danish fruit tarts are popular. Like most other things at Terranea you will pay a premium, but you go there for the luxury experience, not to save a few pennies.

Nice drive on the peninsula for Sunday brunch. Limited public parking on street driving in, little bit of a walk. We opted for valet. Enjoyed the waffles with fruit😋

Great snack and sundry shop at the beautiful Terranea Resort. Sea Beans is a much better café than your normal chain coffee shop. This café offers a variety of high quality quick snacks, coffees, and smoothies from early morning to evening. with a decent amount of indoor and outdoor seating just outside the resort reception area. The snack offerings cover the range from healthy foods (wraps, fruits, etc.) to sweets (scones, cupcakes, cookies, gelato, etc.). I was very impressed with their sweets, generally high quality and sometimes specialty-level design, like with some of their cupcakes. The avocado toast was quite interesting and good but a little hard to eat. The egg-white wrap was filling and healthy but too bland. The oatmeal chocolate chip cookie was moist and thick. The large iced coffee was very good coffee but a smaller size than I expected for the cost. I would give this a moderate value rating; the prices were a bit high, but not overly so. Overall, this café perfectly fits the niche for a luxury resort quick coffee and snack stop.

Slowest service ever! Took at least 25 min to get our coffee/muffin out after waiting in line for 20min. They seriously need to staff up and get a better flow!

Sea Beans is one of my happy places. I only visit several times a year. Its a bit pricey ($12 yogurt parfait) but everything is quite dee-lish. We shared a personal pepperoni pizza, AMAZING avocado toast with what tasted like tomato chutney compote and microgreens on soft but crust-a-licious sourdough (to die for!), berry yogurt parfait, and a caramel cold brew. The associates are helpful and courteous. No tips accepted. Sea Beans is super clean, welcoming, and I dont know about you but when I walk in, I feel like Im on vacation. 🥰

Oftentimes the staff of Sea Beans are aloof and just really not very friendly. Not the case with everybody there, but this has been my experience more often than not. The food is good but pricey, but thats to be expected at a resort. The gelato is delicious.

We were driving by the cliffs and we were in some serious need for coffee. This place had excellent reviews and rightly so. The cafe is actually inside the resort so it can get confusing to locate. Only street parking is available if you arent a guest at the hotel.Its a quaint little coffee shop with a few tables. They had a lot of vegan options too, if thats what you need. The vegan cheesecake and caramel latte tasted just right.

Cute place. You can grab a coffee and walk the public trails along the ocean around the resort. I usually like their food too but I ordered the egg white wrap today and it was awful :(. Also, I feel like the prices go up every time I visit. It cost $20 for a small coffee, a pastry, and an egg white wrap.

Great espresso drinks, yummy gelato (had the stracciatella). Not very busy, tucked away beside a beautiful hotel resort, so its the perfect place to grab a latte and take a walk along the oceanside.

Review №35

A pricey but healthy café tucked inside the Terranea resort, this place is perfect for your post-workout snack. They have breakfast bowls with brown rice, avocado, bacon, and veggies, as well as a pretty solid oatmeal option with fresh berries and pepita seeds. Portions are large although prices are high as well ($8 for the granola, $16 for the breakfast bowl). Juices are $9 and Id say leave them by the wayside...water is healthier and free!

This is by far the worst coffee shop that I have ever been to in my entire life. The coffee is expensive and the food is even pricier. They are charging $10 for a far below average dessert or pastry. However, that is not even the worst part about this dosgrace of a coffee shop. There is no sense of organization and we waited over an hour in total for a cup of coffee because they were losing almost everyones orders and once we finally got ours it wasnt even close to being hot. One man we saw also waited over an hour and they had called out there order in 5 different parts until they received all of it. The next time we went they were slightly faster but they didnt inform us that they were out of the muffin we ordered until it was not given to us with our order. In addition, the quesadilla that they charged $17 for was burned. Several of the employees that we saw we standing around or ignoring our requests for a box since we requested the order to go. In summary, the service at this restaurant is unacceptable for a 5 star resort and it is truly shocking to me that the reviews are here are so positive after seeing almost every other customer that we were around be thoroughly disappointed and/or frustrated with this disgrace of a coffee shop.

I think management would be well served to reconsider the staffing, as current levels are overwhelmed by predictable morning rushes. Also, management would be well served to reconsider the amount of popular breakfast items currently stocked as most are sold out by 8:30am, which seems shortsighted.

Coffee is fine, but this is a classic case of “coffee shop that tries to sell food and fails miserably.” I’ve been waiting 30 minutes for a Caesar salad **that comes in a box**. How is that possible - just hand me the box!
