Was visiting California for the weekend and thought I would stop by this nest little cafe. I order the Vietnamese Hot coffee which was absolutely delicious. First time having it and I was blown out of my mind. The lady working was very nice and informative. Found now new coded spot in Seal Beach. Thank you so much for great cup Joe!!!

Cute little spot by the beach 🏖️. The drink I got was good. Prices are decent. Nice customer service. I like the aesthetic of this place, the photo wall is a cool touch. Summer vibes. This place is perfect for a quick bite and/or drink while strolling in Old Town Seal Beach or walking down the beach waters near by. I have yet to try the food here, but other reviews are saying it’s worth a shot. I look forward to coming back. Seating is not available here. Car parking in this area may be a bit difficult.

Coffee, Frappuccino, Milk Tea, Specialty teas, Hot chocolate, Chai, Matcha, Taro, Smoothies, Sweet or Savory Crepes served up in a smiling family owned atmosphere. A small storefront close to the beach at the corner of Ocean and Main, my favorite moment was walking in on the previous customer, complementing them in how nice and service oriented they always are. Walkup. Often strolling with your takeout along main Street. Two narrow tables with six seats in front of Marina Cafe. Had a banana Nutella crepe and espresso to dine in yummy. Enjoyed it. Solid 4 getting the +1 for quaint little family owned stop in downtown Seal Beach.

This was a really cute find along Main Street! I got a mango boba and my friend got a Thai boba. Mine was too sweet for me, but I did like my friend's drink. The boba itself kind of tasted a little like soap to me, but that's probably just me. Overall, it was a good place to try!

I called ahead of time and the guy told me that they had tables open. I said we had 9 people and said fine. We came down here half mile walk…no big deal…but we cancelled a wait at a proper cafe. When we got here, it’s a tiny shop, and the guy said the two wooden tables seats outside were the tables. But people were sitting there. I told him ahead of time we were on our way, and he agreed to set it up.

First time to try the strawberry crepe and we are hooked for life😋perfect for an afternoon walk in Seal Beach pier, their coffee and hot chocolate are perfect match. We will definitely return to try other crepe varieties 👌🏽

Perfect spot for a quick healthy snack. The Peanut Butter Pitaya & Açaí Bowls are soooooo good! Friendly & quick service!

Cute little spot right across from the Seal Beach Pier, located in a small strip of shops. The interior is cozy and inviting, and they have a pretty big menu of drinks and snacks. I ordered the original milk tea with boba, but it didn't live up to the setting. The drink was very watered down. It is lacking the bold tea flavor and creamy richness you'd expect. It just wasn't enjoyable, but still tried to finish it since it was a bit pricey. The boba was okay, but overall it just didn't hit the mark. Customer service was just fine. It's not particularly friendly, but not rude either. Just ok vibe, but I wouldn't recommend the milk tea. Maybe other menu items are better, but this one fell flat.

Main St in Seal Beach has options for a treat and I've found myself a couple of times stopping by this little store for a dessert crepe. A banana and strawberry with Nutella crepe does the trick for me, satisfying my sweet tooth. As on my last visit, the crepe was served as a hand held. Napkins are a must. Service was pleasant. There's limited seating outside but plenty of benches in the area. Their reward system sent me a text message of a 10% discount off a drink.

I said, "Yoooooo"! Fresh fruit smoothies, squeezed OJ, Boba, and crepes are all part of my foodie-love language! I can't believe this place has all 4 and does them all exceptionally! I was greeted warmly and given plenty of space to read over & make a great decision. I love the outdoor seating and it's right next to the pier!

Gross, I was eating it and enjoying the top layer seemed fine at first. Then I tried the açaí..not good. I went to take another bite and saw a blonde hair stuck in the granola it was the owner's hair..

5 Stars!!!! Absolutely Amazing! I'm so glad I stopped by Marina Cafe! The server, Marine, helped me place an order for the Oreo Nutella crepe and a mango smoothie, and both were incredible. The crepe was perfectly warm and gooey with just the right balance of chocolatey sweetness, and the mango smoothie was super refreshing fruity, creamy, and so satisfying. The service was just as wonderful. Marine is so kind, welcoming, and made the whole experience feel personal and genuine. I love everything about this place, the food, the vibe, and the people. Can't wait to come back!

This tiny place is located on Main Street, a stone's throw from the Seal Beach pier. It's located next door to Cold Stone. They offer a variety of coffees (both hot and cold) and boba drinks as well as savory and sweet crepes. The interior is so small there is no seating, barely enough room for 3 or 4 people to stand. At the time of this writing they just received city approval for a curb counter so there might be sidewalk seating by the time you read this. On a warm day I ordered a hazelnut frappuccino. The woman, one of the owners, was very welcoming and friendly. It took a minute to make my drink which I enjoyed as I walked near the pier. The frappuccino was cold and refreshing; the whipped cream on top was lapped up immediately. Flavors of both coffee and hazelnut were equally distinct. Definitely a far better frappuccino than what is made by the behemoth coffee chain that supposedly originated it.

Cute place. Terrible managers. The menu shows pictures of drinks with boba but doesn't say the boba is add on. Argues with customers when they point it out. UPDATE: my friend ordered a ham crepe and a boba drink there. We threw it away after a few bites because it was not good. The boba was nasty. Owner also doesn't change gloves after handling cash.

As soon as we walked in we were greeted by a very friendly man. The menu is extensive. Lots of fresh fruit smoothies, teas, lemonades. They offer savory and sweet crepes. We tried both. They are absolutely delicious. Crepes are perfect thickness. Not too thick or too thin. Margarita crepe was our favorite. We tried smoothies and lemonades. Exceptional!!!!!! The place is small but very very clean. Açaí bowls are great too!

Disappointing, I ordered bobas and the boba was dry. Flavors are all artificial. My mom ordered chocolate and she said it was ok

Great service and delicious smoothies! I ordered a smoothie not realizing they're made with whole milk (which I can't drink). After it was already made, the gentleman working offered to make me another one free of charge with a milk alternative. Needless to say, great customer service and the smoothie was so yummy!

I live nearby and was walking by, decided we could stop by and try something here. We got a chocolate banana crepe and an horchata milk tea. This is a small shack of a store near the pier. Both items were good and were made upon order. The crepe especially was super chocolaty and warm. They don't have ice cream here but it would be a fine addition to the menu. The menu has good variety and decent prices for just everything. Marina café is a good choice to stop by among the many choices on main street.

got the matcha latte and seal beach acai bowl. The acai bowl was aight for a beach acai bowl, kind of reminded me of Banzai bowl. According to my sister: Matcha latte was also aight, would luv to try another drink next time. There are a few seating area outside the store.

Really disappointing customer service. Cashier told me that crepe would take 10 minutes. After I ordered, the employees hid in the back behind the curtain. I have been to Paris enough times to know a crepe takes about 2 min to make. I could literally see employees with their feet up behind the curtain while I waited. She also did not make it with fresh batter. She pulled out a crusty crepe that was already made. Not worth $14.99 if not fresh. Despite this, it was a good crepe.

Came hoping for a yummy treat for the beach but got a $17 tiny acai bowl with strawberries that were basically fermented they were so old and I had to pick off. Wouldn't recommend for acai bowls

A long walk with the pier being our destination, led us to this spot. Fairly new in my eyes, we walked in and the drink menu looked amazing. We both ordered the Lychee Peachie. As we ordered, I watched as they were making crepes. Definitely a must try for us next time. The drink was delicious and had a generous amount of Lychee bits at the bottom. As I walked away, I noticed a constant leak in my cup. The plastic cup had a tear, which was quickly fixed when I returned. The cups are a bit weak, but the drinks hit the spot.

I've been here two times now and it's been the best crepe and white mocha I've had in years since moving from NYC. First time I went I had a strawberry Nutella crepe and it was amazing, it didn't fall apart or get soggy while I ate it, it had the perfect amount of strawberries and Nutella I loved it. Second time I went I had a mozzarella, chicken mushroom one, even more incredible. The flavor was amazing And perfectly balanced. The mushrooms were not overcooked, and the chicken to mushroom and cheese ratio was just perfect. The service was very quick and they were very friendly and accommodating. There is a small space outdoor seating that is great if you want to enjoy your food outside overall I rate this place a five out of five for food service and Ambience.

If this place gets a 4.5 rating it must not be from their drinks. Me and my wife ordered two drinks and costs $15. The avocado smoothie I had was made from powder rather than real avocado and it tasted like some kind of chemical powder mixed drink. I could barely taste any sweetness. And the color was off, it was lighter than what a real avocado smoothie would look like. After one taste, I was done with it. I asked them for an exchange for a boba milk tea. I thought the boba milk tea should be better. But I was so wrong. It tasted even worse. No tea flavor at all and it was way way too water down. I don't like my drinks too sweet but their boba milk tea was not even sweeten. Maybe just a hint of sweetness came from the boba. I tossed it after two sips and decided I had to write this review. My wife had the SunshineDelight well that drink was no delight at all. You can totally tell it's straight from an instant powder bag into a cup of ice water and mixed.

Every time we walk in, we are greeted by the staff. The owner and his family do an amazing job of connecting with the customers and making them feel welcome. There are so many delicious options to choose from and no bad options on the menu.

I think this place is more of a boba/ smoothie shop but we got the acai here and it was good! They had about 3 different options on the menu all pretty similar that each had the option to be made with either pitaya or acai. We ordered the Marina one pitaya and one acai- both came with lots of granola, blueberries, coconut, strawberries. We took it to go and ate on the beach since it's so close, which I'd recommend! Also shoutout to the friendly staff & quick service!

Marina cafe is steps from the beach on Main St. They have Vietnamese coffee and boba teas, smoothies, etc. I really enjoyed my boba tea from here! It's the same quality boba tea you would expect from any decent place. I like that this location is convenient to the beach! Give it a try!

I had Marina café for the first time yesterday. I will never go back to seal Beach and not stop in for one of their fabulous açai bowls they come in three different face, dragon fruit, coconut, or açai with all the toppings that you choose. So delicious for breakfast or right after a day in the hot sun. Thank you, Marina café. See you next weekend.

Nice place but the milk tea isn't that good. The boba also isn't cooked properly and is a bit hard. For anyone who is a boba drink lover this is not the place to go.

I believe that when food is cooked with love and good intention, you taste it! And I fell in love with the crepe I had. I asked for the Supreme Crepe and Fresh Orange juice for a morning breakfast after a walk at the beach. The people were also loving and friendly. They give off a welcoming energy. Definitely recommend! I know I'm going to talk nonstop about this food combo to my loved ones for the next few days.

Lots of choices for smoothies, milk teas and other treats. The smoothie we ordered is tooo sweet. Not that great at all. Probably won't visit again cause we have an idea about how the others may taste. Thought I would more natural but way to sweet and not balanced in flavor. Thanks tho!

Located near the corner of Main and Ocean, it has a large drink menu, crepes and bowls. I had a strawberry banana smoothie. I don't know all that was in it. The smoothie was rich tasting and good. I will ask what goes in next time. People are friendly and area is fun to walk or many convenient places to sit.
