Editorial Review for Abbot's Habit – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
Surfers, artists, writers and dot-comers congregate in this bright corner space, where the art on the walls is for sale and open-mic nights are a frequent occurrence. Aside from the notably strong coffee, the cafe sells pastries and baked goods from a number of local bakeries: blueberry scones, coffee cake, cinnamon sugar buns, banana-tofu muffins and chocolate Krispie treats are usually on hand. Deli sandwiches and Italian subs are made to order.

This is a great cafe for breakfast/lunch, or even a great place to study. Follow the advice and grab a table outside, there's always something interesting going on in Venice. It's always fairly quite and a great place to hole up and grab a cup of coffee.

I came everyday for breakfast for the five days I stayed with a friend in Venice because I couldn't drag myself anywhere else. The bagels and whipped cream cheese are SO good here. I also had to order a fresh orange juice and latte every morning because they were so good as well. and you can't beat the unpretentious, local, relaxed ambience. Great people watching inside and out. I still go back here on occassion even though I live on the east side.
Pros: Great for breakfasts, locals, relaxed
Cons: limited outside seating
