10 Speed Coffee - Santa Monica

Unfortunately, the wifi was extremely sluggish. I struggled to load even a few Google pages and spent a frustrating 30 minutes attempting to access another site, only to be met with constant failures. So, if you’re looking to get some online work done, you might want to plan accordingly! I enjoyed an iced latte during my visit, and while it was decent, I've definitely had better coffee elsewhere. As for parking, there’s some 15-minute free parking available in the Cedars Sinai lot, but if you prefer street parking, be aware that it can be a few blocks away and may require a Santa Monica Zone 4 permit. Overall, this café is a wonderful place to unwind or dive into a good book, just don’t expect to get much done online!

The service was excellent, and the use of organic sweeteners did alter the taste of the coffee slightly. The seating and ambiance had an industrial vibe, and the air conditioning was quite cold, so it's advisable to bring a jacket if you plan to stay for a while! They offer tasty sandwiches sourced from local vendors, along with a complete coffee menu. It's on the pricier side! Food: 4/5.

This is one of the top coffee shops in the area. Their pastries are delicious, and the coffee drinks are both flavorful and energizing. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, creating a welcoming atmosphere. It's a wonderful spot to either get some work done or simply relax and enjoy your coffee.

I absolutely adore the coffee at this place! The baristas are friendly and welcoming. If you're looking for a nice café to relax in, this is definitely the spot for you!

It seemed like a pleasant spot to hang out, but perhaps the lack of competition in the area has led 10 Speed to neglect their customer service. It felt quite tense, and it seemed like the only thing Dark genuinely appreciated was the quality of the coffee. #MoreSmilesNeeded #BaristaAttitude
