What People Are Saying About Abbotts Habit

Citysearch
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.
Eat at your own risk!!!
by ginacole
Me and my friend should have learned our lesson the first time when we found a hair in her banana bread that she bought from Abbots Habit. But no we thought that can happen anywhere and this one of are local eating places so i would hate to have to take it off the list of the few places close by to grab a bite. Especially because i do enjoy there drinks and food...but yesterday my poor friend AGAIN had a bad experience with the food she bought from there. As she was eating her sandwich a dead fly fell out of her sandwich!!!!! Not cool!!! So I'm warning you all to eat there at your own risk.
Hole-in-the-wall treasure on Abbot-Kinney

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.
BAGELS and CREAM CHEESE!
by wam08
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
