Good Stuff - Hermosa Beach

There are 4 Good Stuff locations around the South Bay, but this is definitely the busiest end closest to the water. It is literally right off of the beach, there are no buildings west of it. Obviously that is a huge selling point so given that the lines here can get quite long and parking can be a bit of a hassle. We were lucky enough to find a spot in the self pay lot a block away otherwise your best bet will be metered street parking. We had to wait about 10 minutes for a table for two for a Saturday brunch, but it was worth it. Our server was very polite and everything that we ordered came out very fast. One thing I like about this place is their menu is the same at all of their locations but they have rotating specials. For this visit, I chose the Chorizo Chilaquiles and honestly loved them. It was perfectly spicy and the eggs were done just how I like it and the whole dish was just great. I added avocado which I would highly recommend. Definitely would be a great place to stop in for a lively brunch, this chain is always consistently good.

Located right on the Hermosa Beach Pier with beautiful ocean views, this spot has a relaxed and refreshing atmosphere. The menu leans toward healthy options, offering items like burgers, burritos, and eggs benedict. The dishes are vibrant and colorful, making both the food and the location very photo-worthy. On top of that, the staff are friendly and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better.

What a great brunch spot ! I didn’t get a picture of everything we had but it was all yummy . Their peach waffle was perfect . I had their keto chicken soup and was very satisfied . You can see the beach from every seat . The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful . You can add your name to wait list ahead of time . Try the matcha ! The food is served hot and fresh .

Antonio is a very pleasant, attentive server. Food presented beautifully. Great view of the Team USA beach volleyball teams practicing. Beautiful!

Good Stuff in Hermosa Beach is absolutely incredible. We came with the whole family — kids, grandma, my wife, and her sister — and had one of the best breakfasts we’ve ever had. Our waiter, Beto, was outstanding: attentive, helpful, and genuinely friendly. He made sure everything went smoothly and accommodated my sister-in-law’s celiac/gluten allergy with no issues at all. The food was unbelievable — fresh, delicious, and perfectly prepared. On top of that, the location can’t be beat. Eating breakfast while watching volleyball games just a few feet away is such a one-of-a-kind experience. The views, the vibe, the service, and the food all came together to make this a perfect morning. Hands down the best breakfast in the area. We’ll definitely be back!

Delicious breakfast burritos...and they offer a Gluten Free tortilla! The Breakfast Wrap was great but I got the Chili Verde Wrap and it was fantastic! Antonio, our waiter was very friendly. The only drawback was there is construction going on next to the restaurant. It was a little distracting but would not deter me from coming back.

Tadeo was our server. He was very friendly & attentive. Food was delicious & the beach vibe was very cool & relaxing.

Excellent food, huge menu and service is 10/10! Not to mention the outside seating option to enjoy the view and South Bay vibes!

Breakfast was good and the server was very nice and patient (my wife takes a long time to make a menu selection). Will certainly go back to try the lunch items.

Great service, Good Food and a view you don't get in the South Bay! Beto is an outstanding server and did such a good job. Ask for him!!! Thank you Good Stuff. We keep coming back!

It's a beautiful location right on the strand. Even if you have to wait, you can walk around or enjoy the ocean. I get my usual Ortega tuna melt. It was good but I felt like the PV location made it better :P Service is friendly. Dog allowed on the patio. However, lots of bugs so guard your food and drinks!

We're visiting from out of town and stopped at The Good Stuff for breakfast--such a great choice! Our server, Kelly, was friendly and attentive, and the service was quick. The food was absolutely delicious; everyone in our group cleaned their plates (even the kids, which is rare!). We asked to sit inside and were seated by a window with a beautiful view of the beach, which made the meal even better. Highly recommend, and we're already looking forward to coming back! when our daughter accidentally left her phone behind, Kelly came and found us right away to return it. That extra thoughtfulness meant so much.

Great place for some yummy breakfast food if you're in the Hermosa area. There are usually a lot of people waiting but the wait is only about fifteen minutes. The service was great and you can sit inside or outside with a beautiful view of the beach and ocean. The crispy bacon is really good and the buttermilk pancakes are out of this world. They are a must try. Overall this is my favorite spot in Hermosa for breakfast.

Great place to come by to grab a sidewalk breakfast and read a book. Great service and tasty food.

Great view! Had a terrific cheeseburger and sweet potatoe fries. My friend had Carne Asada with eggs and it was great too! The view is spectacular! Go try it out! Worth it for the view and relaxation. The staff was excellent so friendly!

Good service and quality food.. Kudos to our server Antonio.. Try the breakfast menu and we like it.. egg bendict and the protein breakfast.

Awesome breakfast. Ate here several mornings while visiting Hermosa. Healthy options and your typical American breakfast. It's a wonderful lunch spot too. Even if it's busy, you won't wait more than 30 min for a table. Loved the pancakes especially! Great servers and gorgeous ocean views.

I came with my friend after our walk :p Thank you to our waiter Beto for being on point. Who doesn't enjoy breakie with a view! The food was sooo good, love me some sweet potato fries.

It was our last day in Cali and we met up with family for brunch. A smaller group of 9 total. We originally wanted to brunch at Martha's in Hermosa Beach which is a fave spot when we're in town. Unfortunately, brunch time is super busy and Martha's had a 1 hour wait. My sister-in-law mentioned Good Stuff Restaurant as another option and they only had a 30 minute wait for our group of 9 people. So we shifted over there and waited patiently. We met them there and put our name on the list. They had an abundance of seating indoors and outdoors. Very spacious and great location next to Hermosa Beach and the boardwalk. Unfortunately, we ended up waiting an hour until they were able to seat us. They sat us inside and we didn't get to sit together either. We put the kids at one table and we sat at the other table with the baby. Our server Tadeo was nice and took good care of the kids table too. My in-laws ordered guava mimosas and my husband and I opted for just coffee. We are done drinking. Haha. I ordered the "Good Stuff Style" Huevos Rancheros. It was just ok. It had good ingredients and I liked that it was a bit healthier with the shredded cabbage but this dish lacked flavor and it didn't look anything like the website photo. I also didn't get any avocados. I asked for hot sauce and it was fine, but hot sauce shouldn't mask the flavor of food. Husband got Teriyaki Steak Breakfast Bowl but as soon as we saw the plate, you could tell the steak was dry and overcooked. He said it was meh. Aside from the cool ambiance and great location, Good Stuff wasn't worth it. And definitely not worth waiting an hour. My husband also paid for brunch since it was his sister's family and the bill was a whopping $225 for 4 adults and 4 kids. The baby doesn't count. Granted there were a few mimosas flowing. Even so, it was pricey for everything. Sorry Good Stuff but it wasn't that good. With a name like that, you'd think they would uphold the name!

This restaurant is in the perfect spot- right along the beach a little off of the pier in Hermosa. It's perfect for a beautiful sunny day and super family and dog friendly. There's a lot of outdoor seating so many people brought their dogs and they even had a dog menu. I came here on a Sunday afternoon and the wait wasn't too long- about 20 minutes. I got the skillet scramble which was a scramble with sausage, bacon, and veggies over hash browns. It was good but could've used some kind of sauce. The veggies were nice though and it came with either muffins or toast. I asked for muffins but when they came out they only had one left so my server brought me toast as well. The muffins were pumpkin cinnamon and I wasn't the biggest fan of them. I actually ended up preferring the toast over the muffins. My husband ordered from their Sunday specials and got a pork sausage omelette. He subbed fries instead of hash browns and toast. The eggs were perfectly cooked and really delicious. I didn't care for the pork sausage sauce much as it was a little acidic for my taste. The fries were good and our server brought out ranch for the fries as well. The portions of what we got weren't too big but it looked like some other dishes were pretty big. The service was good. Our waitress came often to check on us and got all our substitutions correct. Overall it's a really great place to go if you're near the beach.

I love this restaurant's location. The ambiance alone makes it a 4 star. The only reason I'm taking a star off is that Yelp says they have a B health rating..yikes. They do have vegan options though. Hope they expand their vegan menu and add a check in deal on Yelp! I'll be back in the New Year to use my coupon. Service was great and helpful.

This was the perfect topping to our morning walk on the beach, sandwiched between a visit back to the beach to see the sea lions released (after Marine Mammal Care Center rehabilitated them). For anything you're doing on the beach, this is a great place to stop and refuel. Antonio was a splendid server. Great breakfast! Great laid-back beach atmosphere!

Such a cute restaurant by the beach!! It was so relaxing and the service was amazing I ordered the teriyaki steak breakfast bowl and it was so delicious. I was hungry so I wanted something filling but I didn't want breakfast. The teriyaki sauce is a bit on the sweeter side but I enjoyed it. The pineapples were a great addition and the steak was not overly cooked. I love how they give you a choice of toast or muffins. I usually never see muffins being an option so definitely had to choose that one. The blueberry muffins were super soft and moist, even more delicious when you add the butter!! The cinnamon roll at first glance looked a little disappointing and I wasn't expecting to like it or taste any cinnamon but wow was I pleasantly surprised! Super fluffy and the flavor was definitely there Also ordered a mango smoothie and that hit the spot. I am so happy I decided to stop here during my layover and it was more than worth it!!

I've been wanting to try Good Stuff because it's such a popular spot in Hermosa, and while the experience was okay overall, it didn't really wow me. The service was definitely the highlight, our server was friendly, attentive, and kept everything moving smoothly even though it was busy. The food, on the other hand, just didn't stand out. I ordered buttermilk pancakes expecting them to be fluffy and fresh, but they came out dry and overcooked, which made them tough to enjoy. My brother ordered a burrito which was dry on the inside with no salsa on the side. The rest of the meal was fine but pretty basic... nothing that made me feel like this was a "must visit" breakfast place. It felt more like standard diner food than something special you'd go out of your way for at the beach. The location is great and the atmosphere is casual and welcoming, so I can see why people like coming here. But based on my visit, I'd say it's more of a convenient neighborhood spot than somewhere I'd rave about. One thing that was super frustrating while eating is that there is a lot of flies in the area. They provide bug spray which is funny and convenient but nobody wants flies on their food. Good service, but the food could definitely use some improvement.

We went here for breakfast as a group of 4. They were really quick serving us! We sat outside because it was a pretty day but they also have umbrellas if the sun gets too much. I got the carnitas taco and my boyfriend got the wrap. We wouldn't say it was mind blowing, but it was good for us to be content. We did like the banana bread that they served at first - it was nice and warm!

Highly recommend for Breakfast!!! My hubby and I stopped by on our bike ride and are so grateful we did! We started off with mango juice and a Good Stuff shake...delicious We had a Belgium waffle with strawberries and eggs with hashbrowns...yummy! 5 stars for Beto, our amazing server. He is very happy, welcoming and knowledgeable! On top of everything at our table. Thank you Good Stuff

Super kind staff, very accommodating and kind to both humans and dogs Seriously delicious food, and a fun and accessible environment to be in!

Good Stuff is still just like I remember when I was younger. Nice staff, delicious breakfast, brunch, and lunch options with good prices. The best part is getting to sit outside with the beach just yards away while you enjoy your meal.

When we got there they had tables open but they weren't seating anyone because the kitchen is overbooked but we had to ask if we could just sit down and have coffee. But the. They immediately let us order so I don't understand why we waited so long and weren't being seated. My daughter liked her acai bowl. I had chicken and French toast the chicken was overcooked and very small pieces. The French toast was less than I would have expected for the price but it was good. For the price it was overall just eh.

Had a weekend special Chicho's Omelette- shredded beef, cheese, and guacamole on top with perfectly crispy hash browns. Yum! My hubby had the chorizo chilaquiles also delicious. Beka was our server and she did an excellent job! We ordered another chicho's omelette to take home to our son.

Loved the view and outdoor seating right on the beach! The cinnamon French toast was delicious along with a yummy Michilada!! Service was quick and friendly. Would 100% come again!

Plenty of parking. Right in the strand. Close to pier. Bathroom clean. Coffee tasty. Dog friendly. Dog menu. Friendly staff. Great menu!! Very California-centric. They also serve beer and wine. Now grills using ONLY coconut oil. I ordered Cris's Breakfast Salad which has always been a favorite. But, if I'm being honest - I have never eaten anything here that I did not fully enjoy. EVER! I used to come here years ago for many years! In '85 - yes

I had an awesome experience at The Good Stuff on the Strand in Hermosa Beach, thanks in large part to Demetrio! From the moment I sat down, he was super attentive and genuinely friendly--one of those people who makes you feel welcomed right away. I wasn't sure what to get, but Demetrio recommended the fish tacos, and wow--he did not miss. Fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. You can tell he knows the menu well and actually cares about helping guests have a great meal. If you're stopping by The Good Stuff, definitely ask for Demetrio. He made my visit even better. Great service, great vibe, and great tacos!

Kelly is the BOMB waitress and hooked us up with killer breakfast at 12:30. One of the 15 tables with umbrellas would be great on a Sunny Sunday but don't overlook the beachfront tables inside. There's a nice breeze coming through the giant open window frames. You can see the Ocean from these seats too!

We love Good Stuff! On the Strand with great breakfast items like breakfast tacos and chilaquiles with ice coffee. Great food. Great view!

Been here several times. Great food, good atmosphere, great location, and Hugo is a fantastic waiter! Recommend to all who visit Hermosa Beach.

Our lunch dining experience with Beto was great! He was very attentive and the food he recommended was delicious. Location is very scenic by the beach as well.

Beto was our server. He provided excellent service and very patient with kids. Food is fresh and tasteful.

Food was great, service was excellent. The location is literally by the beach. It's a great place to come with the fam or a date.

Here visiting from miami, walked up had an amazing table outside looking at the beach. Weather couldn't have been more perfect Beto was our waiter was so helpful and really attentive. He recommended the huevos rancheros which was fabulous.... Highly recommend

long time customer but recently disappointed. Extremely small omelette. no sides. About $17. complained. waiter said new cook and he was told it was too small. asked to speak to a manager and after 10 minutes a very snippy person came to our table and said, well you already ate it so you got what you ordered. still left 20% tip. wasnt waiter's fault. but we then went to another nearby restaurant, Martha's and for $1 more got a huge omelette with hashbrowns and sourdough toast. Owner of Good Stuff might want to spend more time there.

Our favorite restaurant to go for weekend brunch! Always the best food and Beto was a great server with us today!

prompt service Tortuga is excellent!! location is key! definitely stop here Variety of items on the menu

Kelly amazing. Food is great. Sitting and looking at ocean. Service very quick Highly recommend

Always good food and friendly service. Nice view of the beach. I got here before 10am to get around parking. This is always a special trip for a special restaurant. TY Gabi.

Good vibes, location, and food. Food: I've been here a few times, but I've never been disappointed with the food here. Everything's always been great, especially in relation to the price. This time, I tried the whole wheat pancakes for the 1st time and I was definitely glad that I did. It wasn't your usual whole wheat grainy, bland pancake. It was moist and somewhat fluffy and the pure maple syrup taste complimented well! Service: The service here is always a 5/10. It's ok service, but usually slow and not as friendly as other beach side restaurants. There's also usually a long wait on weekend breakfast/brunch time, so you'll end up waiting anywhere from 20min to an hour. Atmosphere: Great location, as it is right on the strand with a beach view. There's both outdoor and indoor seating (indoor seating is spacious and more quiet than the outdoor seating). Between tables are spacious so you don't feel too crowded either!! This is definitely a go-to breakfast/brunch spot for me in the area. Definitely check it out if you're in the area and looking for an American / Mexican type of food!

Ask for Suzan , fir amazing service If you're looking for old-fashioned, flavorful Chinese food in Westwood, this spot is a hidden gem. The atmosphere isn't anything fancy, but the food more than makes up for it. Every dish comes packed with authentic flavor, the kind you rarely find anymore. Prices are very fair for the quality you get--great value without compromising taste. It's also an excellent choice for vegetarians, with plenty of well-balanced, delicious options. If you care more about amazing food than ambiance, this place is 100% worth the visit.

Hugo excellent waiter. Had a good lunch with efficient and friendly service. .............

Fun spot in the heart of Hermosa beach right on the beach. After riding our bikes from redondo beach to Venice we stopped here on the way back. We got there just as they were about to close, but the server was so kind and stayed open for us so we could grab a bite. Turkey wrap and chips and salsa hit the spot! Definitely will stop bye again when down on the strand in Hermosa Beach.

Amazing service and food! Thx u Antonio! Kids menu is perfect for kids. And great view too.

Cinnamon French Toast & Eggs, The California Omelette, Burning Daylight IPA and exceptional friendly service by Antonio! Great start to the day! Thanks Good Stuff!

Great food great view of the beach. Antonio was very friendly and provided great service! Will definitely come back!!

Good stuff is one of the few breakfast spots on the strand at Hermosa Beach, so it definitely gets busy on weekends for brunch. We came on a rainy day so it less crowded than usual, which was nice. The California omelette was perfect, I will definitely be ordering it again. I appreciate that I could get pancakes as my side for my omelette! The highlight for me was that my pancakes came with real maple syrup. The portions for most plates aren't huge but they leave you satisfied. The Bloody Mary was too sweet for me and the coffee was just alright. Our server Kelly was sure to give me lots of refills and made sure we had what we needed.

I love Good stuff, I've said before and I'll say it again! Today I just had an absolutely amazing experience, service was like no other! Beto went above and beyond, I have not had service like that in a while! My husband and I had our usual, Chases fried chicken wrap and whole wheat pancakes. Kids had cheesy eggs and our food was very good as usual! Enjoyed the view and surrounded my kind people!

Food, service and ambience were top notch!! Antonio was an excellent server! The food was very authentic! Love this place!

Janelle was a great server! Food was amazing! She did a great job! Love the environment! I'm definitely going back!

I've lived in South Bay for so many years and had never eaten here. Might seem little unassuming and basic on the outside but the food itself GOOD, service is GOOD, view/location/vibes are GOOD. We got the chicken wrap, m&m waffle, and cinnamon french toast. The only thing not GOOD at GOOD STUFF was our sever Beto. He was GREAT!! We hope he is our server again when we come back. Thank you Beto!!
