A popular coffee spot in Venice Beach.
Updated June 2026 by creator.
Saint Maxime Coffee is the kind of Venice Beach coffee spot people save because the drinks feel specific: cold brew, cream top drinks, matcha, chai, espresso, and Uncle Dan Crepes.
It is small, local, and close to Rose Ave, Abbot Kinney, Santa Monica, and the Westside. The menu is built around a few drinks that are easy to remember without turning the place into a giant cafe.
Matcha and chai
Strawberry Matcha, Banana Cream Top Matcha, and house-made chai give the menu a strong non-coffee side.
Breakfast crepes
Uncle Dan Crepes adds LOX Salmon, The Forager, Maxime's Favorite, and Maple + Butter to the morning.
Why people remember it
A popular coffee spot in Venice Beach does not have to be loud. Sometimes it is popular because the order is easy to describe later. Saint Maxime Coffee has that kind of menu: Fig Leaf Cream Top Cold Brew, Strawberry Matcha, Banana Cream Top Matcha, Mascarpone Latte, house-made chai, espresso drinks, and crepes.
The drinks are visual without feeling forced. They also make sense in Venice, where a coffee stop can be part of a walk, a beach morning, a meeting point, or a quick Westside detour.
The first-time order path
If you want coffee, order Fig Leaf Cream Top Cold Brew or Mascarpone Latte. If you want matcha, order Strawberry Matcha for fruit or Banana Cream Top Matcha for creaminess. If you want spice, order the house-made chai.
If breakfast is part of the plan, add Uncle Dan Crepes. LOX Salmon is the savory first order. Maxime's Favorite is the sweet first order.
A local Venice feel
Saint Maxime Coffee sits on Rose Ave, close to Abbot Kinney and Santa Monica but still clearly Venice Beach. It is useful for locals, visitors, cyclists, walkers, and people moving across the Westside who want a stop that does not feel generic.
The menu is compact, so the place stays quick. The drinks still have enough detail to feel worth the trip.
Build a morning around it
Start with coffee and crepes, then use the Venice Beach morning guide, Rose Ave coffee guide, or breakfast guide to keep going. A good route can be simple: Saint Maxime Coffee, a walk toward Main Street or Abbot Kinney, then the beach if the weather is doing its part.
A note on timing and neighborhood fit
This page is meant to help with a real visit, not just a search result. A popular coffee spot in Venice Beach makes the most sense when you are already near Venice Beach, Rose Ave, Abbot Kinney, Santa Monica, or the Westside and want a stop that does not require a long detour.
For the smoothest morning, keep the route tight: choose coffee or matcha first, decide if breakfast or crepes belong in the plan, then walk toward the neighborhood you actually want to spend time in.
Saint Maxime Coffee works best as an anchor, not a complicated itinerary. Start with a drink, add Uncle Dan Crepes if you want food, and use the guide links on this page only when you are ready to compare a second stop. That keeps the page useful for locals, visitors, cyclists, walkers, and anyone moving between Venice and Santa Monica.
