Tanner's Coffee Co.

Really wanted to like this spot but it was extremely mid. They have an egg and cheese bagel on the menu and they served us an egg white and the smallest bit of cheese which was really underwhelming. They should say it’s an egg white … the smoothie we ordered wasn’t great either . Service was pretty poor as well

Came by to order a mocha, saw they offered a caramel mocha on their menu. They do make their caramel mocha different here. I couldn't taste the caramel or the mocha, the barista said their drink consisted of 1 espresso shot and foam which I wasn't sure if she was referring to a mocha or macchiato.. Their bagel (garlic) was soooo good, croissant was very traditional (Costco flavor).

My first visit (randomly driving by) experience was a sufficiently good one to bring me back for a second visit today. I like the whole low-key book/chess/coffee/neighborhood vibe of this place. The counter person was again a pleasant soul. Ordered the coffee of the day, Italian, and a lemon bar. Both items were very very tasty and all that one would hope for. I'll be back in the future.

Cozy place. Pastries look great. Ordered extra hot latte that didn’t come out all that hot, but price is reasonable at $5 for a large. Very friendly employee at counter. Bar stool seating isn’t very comfortable.

This is such a random, cool little coffee shop. There’s no cold brew which is my go-to but the iced coffee was really good and pretty smooth still! The vibe is very chill in there though - it seems like people were just hanging out there for the day - just reading and on their computers but, wasn’t super packed (on a Saturday around 11am).

This coffee shop is very inviting and it’s great to grab a cuppa coffee do some stuff on your laptop and then go onto your day or stay longer as they have Wi-Fi for you to do all your work. Overall a great place to be and it’s in just the right neighborhood for everybody too stop by. It’s a block away from Culver Boulevard and Sepulveda Boulevard on Sepulveda.

Found Tanner's Coffee Company doing a search on Google. It's a cute place. They made me a custom drink and it is very good.

I ordered a hot vanilla latte (grande) and I paid $5.00 flat for it. I’m not a big coffee drinker but I enjoyed it. The atmosphere here is laid back and enjoyable. Lots of seating and space to play board games or do work.

Super cruisey, cozy and hip coffee place. Easy street parking either on the Main Street or the side street. Plenty of seating, couches, stools etc with books to read, places to set up a laptop for work. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. The iced cappuccino was delicious. Highly recommend

The coffee drinks are really not that good here. Service depends on who is there. Every so often I try Tanners again, hoping for a better outcome, and I always say it's the last time. I want to support a local business instead of a corporate chain. Oh well. As far as the interior goes it is rather shabby and doesn't look like it's been updated in forever. There are several outdoor tables which are nice.

A charming little stop between home and the hustle--this coffee shop offers a calm, welcoming pause to your morning. Cozy seating, the aroma of fresh brew, and thoughtful service make it feel like an intentional interlude--just enough time to savor your drink and reset before heading into the day

Always on the lookout for cool coffee shops to get some work done, and Tanner's Coffee delivered. Definitely has down-to-earth vibes, this isn't your $10 cup of pretentious coffee. My reasonably priced mocha was excellent. Plenty of seating options, couch, tables, high tables and counter top inside, plus plenty of outside seating. Will be back next time I need to do some work in this area, or just for a good cup of coffee.

Definitely a neighborhood spot with laidback surf style decor. The coffee is solid, good quality at affordable prices. It can be a bit understaffed at times, but the team is friendly and the vibe is super relaxed. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, very dog friendly.

Still chill. Their pastries are four bucks for basic ones and seven for fancy desserts. Make sure to take photos I guess, seven bucks gone. Its ok the tiramisu was worth it. And good. I'd do it again. Regular coffee is good and decently priced. Inside is usually packed and outside is nice but too loud to get work done sometimes. Oh well. I'd come back for the rest of those pastries is all, they have banana cream pie dudes. Bring a date

Stopping by for grabbing my to-go afternoon coffee and Tanner's coffee came up as highly rated one on Google map. I could see the place was pretty busy with people hanging out, working, as well as playing board games on Sunday afternoon. Plenty of street parking around were available. The venue was okay-ish, though probably more like neighborhood coffee vibe than recently hyped aesthetic ones. The barista was so nice and friendly, which was probably my highlight from this place. The Caramel Latte I went for was okay, but wouldn't call it stand out. They did have multiple non-dairy substitutes available and some munchies to grab with your drinks.

This is a great neighborhood coffee shop. I speculate it's a local favorite for sure. Outside seating around building, because you know - LA weather. Inside it kinda reminds me of a Portland coffee shop vibe... like their version of what a California cafe/surf shop would look like. I don't know I'm all hyped up on coffee. But there's three guys playing a board game, one guy is painting a comic strip, and a group of gals are drawing on easels The people alone makes it 5 stars and the coffee is great too. Will start using this as a work remote spot.

Ambiance: it's a community coffee shop, with surf club style decorations, spacious indoor area and outdoor seating, definitely a lot of regulars here Service: super friendly and patient with specific requests Drink: standard options with daily speciality Caramel Latte - **** sweet and light taste, recommend Coffee of the Day - *** French vanilla, a bit bitter and sour Price: very affordable prices, most coffee drinks cost less than $5 each

My favorite coffee shop recently. Main barista that I always see the one with a buzzed head and a more alternative style is so sweet. I really appreciate the vibe in here and the coffee is affordable and good. I like the different daily specials, I like having a comfortable couch to sit on and room to do my work, tanners checks off all the boxes for me. Thank you guys

Tanners is a great, family-owned coffee shop with a throwback vibe. Think comfy couches, shelves of books, fresh pastries, and a steady flow of locals--it's what Starbucks used to feel like, except Tanners never changed. They know their coffee, the staff is cool, and the regulars give the place real character. If you're in Culver City, skip the Starbucks and Coffee Bean--swing by Tanners and remind yourself what a coffee shop should feel like.

What is not to love? A cute and cozy dog friendly cafe with well made drinks, fluffy croissants, and thick bagels that come toasted with cream cheese. I have only had their espresso-based drinks and I found them to be top notch - none of that sourness that I sometimes find in underextracted brews. I am still relatively new to LA but so far this is my favorite coffee shop based on drinks alone. I look forward to coming back to sampling more of their menu and picking up a bag of their beans (the flavored coffees look fun!).

Solid coffee. Inexpensive. Nothing impressive but nothing egregious aka it does the job. After covid, they only sell coffee in to go cups instead of porcelain/ceramic. A bit more milky than I'd like and was a tad over roasted/bitter but overall not bad. Pastries were highly enjoyable but nothing to write home about. I could pass on the pastries next time unless needing a quick bite to eat. $3 for raisin swirl. $7 for cheesecake square and small apple pie. $3 for berry cobbler. They no longer offer their seasonal menu (Eg. lavender and rose lattes). Personally I would pay the extra $1-2 extra for a quality cup and go somewhere else with high quality, specialty coffee. After all, if you're a coffee snob you probably can make your own solid coffee at home. This spot is good for people on the go needing something close and quick but can't stand poor coffee. Parking was a struggle as there was only street parking and it was NOT metered. Instead, after curb parking you have to walk to a self service station to pay for your spot. It's a struggle because this machine's screen doesn't always work. ---- Tldr, solid inexpensive coffee. Would stop by if I'm close by and need a quick to go option.

I've been coming here for YEARS, and always loved this 90's time capsule! (The PDR location is pretty great, too!) All of the staff (at both locations) have been good, but, today, I was really impressed by Elaina (hope I spelled that right). She was friendly, authentic, professional and had a great playlist on; fully rounding out the, "Singles," (movie) vibe. As a business, it's usually pretty clean, the products are quality and decently priced, and everyone feels at home. Even the supposedly normal person that "didn't know how" to enter the code for the bathroom door They rolled in with a ridiculously cologned dude. That was right after a jerk rang the bell for service IMMEDIATELY as he got to the counter, even though he walked straight from the door to the register, not even looking behind the counter; the barista was literally standing 2 feet away from the register. That's the worst of it, most customers are pretty rad. Sigh... Show your barista some love, they deal with so much we hardly see, because of how good they are at their work.

Ok it's not all the time that I'm impressed by coffee shop food.. I ordered an iced coffee (cold brew) and plain bagel with egg and cheese.. it was excellent. I had to go back in and say thank you to the staff for that most delicious bagel. It's not something out of the is world right but it was hot, crispy, and hit the spot. It was an egg white bagel and I don't think they make regular eggs just whites as I didn't specify egg whites but I love eggs regardless so keep that in mind. They also have an option for cream cheese, pb&j and just a butter bagel. I doubt you'd be disappointed. Coffee was standard tasting, not worse than the big box brands so I'd rather come to tanners over those guys. It was mildly noisy inside as it was full but nothing crazy. I would assume that they have a steady flow of customers as it seems like they would so don't be surprised if there's a line for breakfast hours. With that said next time I have to bring my mom the dentist next door I will for sure stop by again. Enjoy..

Chill spot for locals who play chess as a hobby. Place could use a little renovation or clean up as everything looks dusty and old. My sister and I met up with a friend who recommended the place. We were the only ones waiting to order and it took about 9min for someone to finally help us. Then when asked for a strawberry banana smoothie, there was some kind of confusion with the menu description so I just ordered whatever the girl said they can do. The croissant was hard like a rock. I wouldn't recommend this place at all.

I come to Tanner's Coffee once and a while. I'm a block away from Tanner's Coffee. The service is good. Every time I come to Tanner's Coffee, I find that the staff has a good attitude towards each customer that comes in, and the atmosphere is pretty chill most of the time. It is pretty interactive because during the weekends, they have a chess club that usually goes on.

Really like it here but they really need more than one person working at a time. Lines can be 20 min long and I feel bad for the one barista having to take orders and make the coffee. A stamp card would also be nice. But the coffee is good. Cold brew is great and everyone who works there is wonderful.

It's cozy, a little careworn, and has lots of outlets. The coffee is reasonably priced and comes in 20oz servings. The bagels are pretty dang good. This is the coffee shop I've been looking for since moving to LA, one that feels like a living room rather than an interior design shop. Unfortunately, it's understaffed. The one person behind the counter was doing her best to keep up. The bathrooms are also a bit creepy. They are in need of more light and a fresh coat of paint.

Don't come here if you need reliable WiFi connection. Couldn't log in after 1 hr worth of attempting.

A little disappointed. Great location known for their coffee. Street parking and a small parking lot in the rear. Came inside to a dark rather large café and a showcase with some muffins pastries. They also have outdoor seating with tables and chairs. The customer service is not great. Yes they were funny and making jokes and talking to each other but they weren't friendly and way to their actual customers. We ordered a strawberry Italian soda and an Americano I can say with full confidence that neither one of them were made correctly. Sadly, my Americano had too much water to espresso. In fact, I don't even think two shots were in my large Americano because it tasted like water with a splash of coffee and this was not iced. It was hot. Next the Italian soda was basically soda, water, and ice with a splash of strawberry. They have a self-service where you can add your own half-and-half which I did but after tasting it it again just tasted like soda water with half-and-half I went back and said, can I get more strawberry syrup? The response was oh I've never made one before and I've never had one before. Yes, I can add more. I was just surprised that the person working there had no idea. The other thing that I'd like to add for leadership to review is that behind the register, they were talking negatively about their customers not me but customers in general even though I was just standing right there and they had a half full café with customers. I just thought I was poor taste and obviously not good customer service.

I got the white chocolate mocha hot. I never had a coffee where i actually taste the coffee beans, oatmilk and the white chocolate. It was actually hot. Many coffee shops I been too are usually warm. It's so good. Tanner's is legit. The server was fast and nice. I unfortunately didn't catch her name. The coffee shop is nice inside and very welcoming. Definitely would be coming back and the price isn't bad at all. Definitely wallet friendly.

First time here and thoroughly enjoyed it. Seems like a neighborhood joint with locals drinking coffee, meeting friends, and doing work on their laptops. Ample seating inside and some tables outside too. Many coffee shops have pretty awful iced coffee. It's generally weak and has little actual coffee flavor. Tanner's Coffee was VERY good. Strong but not overpowering. Good flavor, well balanced. I'll have to come back and try a hot coffee drink soon. Staff was friendly and quick. The interior gave me college coffee shop vibes where you might hear a poetry slam. There was a small library of books to read while sipping your coffee - that was a nice touch. Overall a good spot!

New to the area but really love going to tanners over other coffee shops is its location to the beach, tasty sandwiches and treats! Their coffee and seasonal beverages are so good, especially the orange juice smoothie. But by far My favorite part of Tanner's is their staff. They're Always upbeat and super inviting! For sure a local favorite

The best coffee and other drinks, the best staff - totally cheerful and helpful - it is almost shocking, power outlets a plenty. Quality chess outside. The only problem is there are customers here who will do zoom calls, phone calls, detonation of nuclear weapons, inside the place. no decorum from that asian lady who does the zoom calls, the guy in the toupee who watches chess and comments outloud and the random millenial just acting out. If you are unlike me and not afflicted with autism and can deal with the loud customers, this is the best coffee joint in l.a.

It was a nice atmosphere, very calm and its nice that pets are allowed. The barista was kind of shy but it's on me I couldn't hear that well I think. The egg for the bagel and cheese sandwich is microwaved which is... I dunno. I'm gonna try to not think about it. While I was there it was the only one barista and it was packed so I understand being efficient is necessary but I don't really like microwaved egg.

A great study spot with a lot of indoor and outdoor seating + outlets (a necessity!). They have an extensive menu of coffee and teas in addition to smoothies and other fun drinks. Note: They do not have soy milk as a milk alternative. Unfortunately, they did not have any food besides the pastries that were on display in the case. They completely ran out of bagels which was quite disappointing since I was hungry and wanted a meal while I was studying. However, the staff was very kind and let me buy food from across the street and bring it in instead. The theme of the place is casual and beachy with a lot of surfboards hung around the inside and artwork that reminds you of the ocean.

My hot sugar free vanilla latte with almond milk tasted sour. I threw it out. Over the years I've stopped here about three times. I have never been impressed. Today I was Jonesing for coffee and it has free easy parking. So I stopped. Maybe half a dozen people hanging out in their computers. They have basic flavors. Vanilla or chocolate. They have a frozen drink but I remember I didn't like it years ago. They make smoothies and a couple bagel sandwiches. I won't return. I have never thrown out a coffee before today. I stopped at Starbucks down Sepulveda, through out the Tanners and had a Starbucks latte. At least it tastes good.

Great place--been going there for years--but it is really sad how the owner is, how can I put this, "very careful with money. if you know what I mean". Whenever I go there, busy times or not, there is only one person taking orders and making the drinks. Not right, especially on very busy times. The other Tanners in Playa always has at least 2 people either waiting on customers or making orders.

Friendly service, cappuccinos starting at $4 for a 12oz , almond and oat as milk alternatives, and great environment to study/work. Couches are comfy!

Depending on who is making your drink. Quality is not consistent. It's usually good, but not today. 2/8/25. I got the dirty chai and the lady insist of calling the filthy chai and made my drink was as bland as it could be. Without any taste of espresso shots nor chai. It's in the trash. The owner should retrain them or pay that one girl double who is really enthusiastic and amazingly done EVERYTHING herself instead of hiring two people who just don't give a s***

I love the chai tea. I get it hot with vanilla spice mix. Yummmy. Plus it's a great place to do work and/or read with a book

I really like the ambiance of Tanner's as well as their coffee. It offers good prices, good coffee, and good seating =) Plus when I drive by sometimes they have what looks like a chess tournament going on?? I have to stop by and see that one day.

This small coffee shop is amazing and seems so well loved by the local community! For my first time coming here, I was happy to see a large selection of drink options and baked goods. I got a regular latte and chocolate croissant, both of which I would recommend! The latte was nice and rich, with a smooth foam. Definitely get the croissant warmed since it helps the outside be nice and flakey while the inside is a little softer. There is so much seating available, both inside and out. Inside are some couches, bar stool seating, and larger tables to fit whatever needs you have while you're here. There are plenty of outlets and free wifi, so working from here is also a great option. They also have some books and games that you can play!

Nice extensive menu. Tasty drinks. Fresh pastries. A good amount of seating indoor and outdoor. Clean restroom. Fantastic little book collection for customers

Love this place! Great hospitality and atmosphere. They have adequate seating if you want to sip a coffee and relax. I got the strawberry smoothie and it was really refreshing. They even have outdoor chess games from time to time.

Unfortunately, Tanners is not what it used to be. Now it is overrun with dogs just roaming the place, someone even brought a cat that was sticking its paws into the leather couches. Just bringing animals in and allowing them to roam around freely, and disrupt others trying to work is annoying. I use to love coming when they open late years ago, sadly it's a different vibe now. Some of the workers are friendly, but it's just not a good place to study or work any longer.

Tanner's is great! I've been coming here for years. I had an issue with watery drinks awhile back but they've cleared that up. The drinks are now just as delicious as ever. Great energy and great ambiance. I really enjoy my time here and the beautiful neighborhood!

This will be the last time I come here. I always order my drinks to have oatmilk and sadly if I'm not watching them prepare the drink they will use whole milk. I understand there might be confusion between oatmilk and whole milk when placing the order but I make sure they repeat the order back. They still get it wrong. This last time I ordered an iced coffee only to be given a hot coffee. I ordered 1 butter bagel and 1 with cream cheese. I was given both with cream cheese. There's always only one person serving and to have to wait for my order again is just too much. My hot coffee drink was watery and flavorless. I'm not coming back here again.

Cheap prices is the good news. Interior is a bit dirty... their espresso machine was broken today so the girl at the counter basically made it sound like their backup system was too cumbersome to do... but agreed to make espresso for me anyway, just warning that it would take a while. I received my coffee very quickly but it was definitely decaf... out of spite? Not worth it to come back if the worker is going to discourage you from ordering coffee at a coffee shop and then give you decaf secretly.

This place is great- free Wi-Fi and dog friendly. The coffee is great- tried a latte! Bagel with cream cheese was too!

Just tried 3 drinks for here first time; hot caramel/vanilla latte, cold hazelnut latte & a kids chocolate milk - all made perfectly by the barista! This is a very cool shop without good vibes. Very welcoming and excellent customer service. The barista was friendly, professional and fun to have a quick chat with too! I highly recommend Tanner's Coffee and will definitely be making a stop here next time I'm in the area : )

Great coffee, nice ambience, and the perfect start to my Friday morning. My friends and I are in college and we've been going to this monthly MSA tradition at our school called "Fajr and Philz" in which we attend morning prayer and then hit Philz Coffee right after. Anyways, we kind of got tired of Philz and the whole group thing, so my friends and I decided why don't we just go to prayer on our own, and hit a new coffee place that we've never had before after, and we can do this thing once week. So at 7 in the morning on Friday, in 45 degrees Fahrenheit, my buddy found Tanner's nearby and we decided to give it a shot. We walked in and were greeted by a very comforting ambience that oozed warmth and a homey feel. Having grown up in Southern California surfing the beaches of the beautiful coast, I was pleasantly surprised to see that it was a surf-themed coffee shop. I order a vanilla iced latte and an everything bagel with cream cheese and man did it hit the spot. I'm a fan of stronger tasting roasts because I like to taste the coffee, and the latte here offered just that. It was the perfect blend of sweet, but not too sweet, coffee-tasting, but not too strong, and perfectly creamy. The bagel was fantastic as well. There was only one worker there and she was taking orders AND making the coffee/toasting bagels/giving pastries all by herself. Impressively enough, the coffee and bagel came out really fast. Shoutout to that barista fr. The seating was very comfortable and welcoming, and we all brought our work to do. We sat there for a solid 3 hours, got our work done for school and had some great conversation with other customers there. You don't see much of that these days, talking to strangers. It was a nice breath of fresh air in this age of the exodus of face-to-face social interaction. My friends and I met a writer there who was writing a piece for the New Yorker and it was really cool to hear his ideas. When we left back to campus, my friend forgot his iPad and got worried it might have been stolen. So he called up the place, and it turns out the wonderful barista who was juggling everything, saw that he left it, took it behind the counter, and kept it safe until he could pick it up. I wish I knew her name because she really made our morning. All-in-all this place is the start of a tradition with my boys. We laughed, worked, and reminisced here, and it was an experience that made my day. It reminded me that it's little moments like this that are seemingly nothing special, but in reality are the moments you remember in your life. Thank you to Tanner's. Dedicated to Mido, Sal, and Shafi

I'm sorry but the coffee was disgusting it was way too sweet you could barely taste the coffee. The service was okay, employees are very polite. Their is plenty of seating

Stuffy interior air with uncomfy wooden seats and barista that was a bit negative. we approached the register to order, and the barista was 8 feet away and stopped us from ordering saying wait until I get over to the register. It was a very strange greeting.

Two Roockies attending and making really Bad Capuccino !Dumped it outside ! It didn't even taste the espresso in it ! Talking with friends while customers waiting for their coffee or order ! Absurd ! Well ! It seems you need people who really care about your business , I used to come here before , guess I'll pass by next time ! Don't even try it ! Is not worth the try ! Sunday 11:15 am ! Not enjoyed ! Thanks and fix it or close your business ! Chau Ambience needs a new face of these times ! 2023 . Good luck

I come here a few times a week in the morning and I love the drinks. A few things do bother me sometimes, like the baristas talking smack about their other coworkers loudly for everyone to hear. Also occasionally they will keep certain bagels for themselves and their friends. They will loudly say to each other "no don't sell those, I'm keeping them for me and some people" and then look at me and tell me I'm the fakest customer service voice "sorry those are no longer available". I think it's fine to take one for yourself but like come on bro... it just feels like a very mean-girl-ish ambiance. Again the coffee is fine ... but It's just weird to hear these 30 plus ladies snicker like we're in middle school. Uncomfy vibes 1/5 not chill.

This coffee shop has been around for a very long time. I used to stop by before school when I was in middle school (before the 2000's, whoa!). Everything looks the same inside which is insane. I remember I used to get a vanilla iced blended drink with shaved chocolate and whip cream when I was in middle school. They were such a treat back then and I'm sure nothing changed, they just have more flavors. I came in to wait for my oil change at a mechanic down the street. They have plenty of outdoor seating and a good amount of space inside too. They have all kinds of books for you to read while you hang out. I ordered their hazelnut latte with oat milk and an egg white and cheese bagel. The latte was solid and the bagel breakfast sandwich was decent. Their bagels are quite good though, I got the onion. I'm glad they're doing well and still open after so many decades! It's nice to support small coffee shops..they need our support the most!

Great space, excellent drinks, and friendly service. A favorite local spot for sure. I'm not a big coffee person but I've had great tea and chocolate drinks here.
