New owner Tara (as of mid-2022) has reinvigorated this hidden treasure spot with her chef-quality sandwiches and toasts, as well as home-made pastries and exotic coffees.

Stopped by here on the way to Malibu and loved it! Super dog friendly, a huge selection of coffee, smoothie, etc options, and wonderful breakfast options (went with the breakfast sandwich) including pastries. Got to try their maple scone fresh after baking and it was great! As a plus, spotted Don Cheadle waiting for breakfast too!

This is a magnificent little coffee trailer right up from the beach. The atmosphere was very warm and inviting. The owner and baristas were extremely friendly and the coffee was amazing. They actually now how to make a cortado and a cappuccino the right way. Also very impressed by the fact they make their own syrups and the food was delicious. I will recommend to anyone in the area!

Rustic Coffee is an unremarkable place at first glance, a real diamond in the rough, but at the same time beautiful. A small cozy place with a classic coffee shop menu, where you can sit while you wait for your order or enjoy it. But this is not the main thing here. Anyone who understands coffee and its preparation knows that in America it is very difficult to find good coffee - sour/bitter, overheated with foam in half a glass of coffee, which also has to wait unreasonably long, has become the norm (hello Starbucks) But in Rustic They know how to make coffee! As an experienced barista, I can safely say - If you love coffee, then be sure to visit this establishment, you will not regret it. HIGHLY recommend.

Rustic Coffee is a hidden airstream-like gem on W Channel Road in the Pacific Palisades part of Santa Monica. If you want to try coffee by the beach, this is a great spot to hit on your way. They have some seats and tables available in the courtyard, alongside a few other vendors. The staff is extremely welcoming and friendly, and has a genuine warmth to them that makes you want to return. We went with the iced oat latte and hot mocha. For non-dairy options they have both oat and almond milk. My only wish would be that they’d also work with a local specialty coffee roaster that fits their local Los Angeles vibe. They have a large selection of beverages, including smoothies that I’ll definitely be trying on my next visit.

Oh my gosh, is this my favorite place to get coffee in SM? Yes! So cute, great coffee and smoothies, great avacado and egg salad toasts. Great dog watching and people watching too. Easy to park, but pay the meter, the meter people make a sweep in the morning. Lovely place to sit, lots of shaded places.

Hidden away from street view, there’s an old airstream trailer converted into a coffee cart. Friendly staff, and an excellent cup of coffee. We will definitely go back.

Really good cappuccino and smoothie. Pleasant outdoor seating area and super friendly staff.

Such a wonderful place. I’m coffee addicted person and it’s not easy to find perfect coffee in this area, but… this trailer with a coffee - significant place. 1 mins walking away from the ocean. Highly recommend! So friendly, so delicious food and coffee as well!

I stopped by Rustic Coffee for the first time today and I had a great experience. They make amazing coffee and had amazing service…keep doing what you guys do best, thanks and I will be back !!!

Great place! The food and the atmosphere is amazing. I will come back!

Best coffee in town! Lou Lou is especially hilarious and wonderful. She made me the most delicious iced vanilla latte I’ve EVER had this morning. Make sure you hit up this adorable spot whenever you’re in the area!

Had a great breakfast of avocado toast add egg, and an iced tea while waiting to tour the Eames house just up the hill. The staff was nice as well. Can't really beat an outdoor dining experience in December, either.

Simple, cute and tasty! The vibe was very cute with limited seating but overall the coffee is AMAZING rich, flavorful and the syrup was complimentary

Cute Vibe, Cool Location. Matcha and Croissant were pretty standard.

Rustic Coffee is a cute small coffee shop (air-stream trailer) on W. Channel Rd and Short st. The only coffee shop to grab coffee in the area besides the Chevron convenient store. They offer flavor full smoothies, coffee, and pastry food. I had Topanga smoothie w/c was perfect for a hot day; it was flavorful and made of fresh ingredients. Staff was friendly and professional. Outdoor garden patio seating only. Atmosphere was great despite a lack of music! Price of smoothies for a regular 16 oz size were on the high end. Street parking only. Overall, it's an okay coffee place.

Orders take forever and its probably one of the saddest-looking avo toasts ive ever had the displeasure of eating

Poor customer service, made me wait for a long time - no one behind me in the line. Managers name was Natalie and she did not try to resolve disappointment. Had a smile on her face and just ignored the issue.

I don't usually write reviews, but after two rude encounters with staff here, I felt compelled. I just moved to Topanga and was excited to find a cute local coffee stop on my way to work. Unfortunately, the young staff working here are consistently rude. On my first visit, one heavy-set young girl was extremely unpleasant. She aggressively told me I couldn't park where I had, then immediately followed it up with, "We're not open anyway, the power's out." I can't stress enough how unnecessarily rude and unprofessional her tone was. On yet another visit, when my order was made incorrectly and I politely mentioned that my drink was supposed to be iced, a different staff member became visibly annoyed and scolded me--as if it were my fault her coworker wrote it wrong on the cup. The young staff here need to learn how to speak to customers with professionalism and kindness. Starting my mornings with rude interactions over a simple cup of coffee is not how I want to begin my day, and I won't be making this my daily stop anymore.
