Grab an outdoor table, order a croissant, a scone or an avocado toast (yes, it’s that good), and watch Malibu’s most relaxed crowd debate whether this counts as breakfast, lunch, or a lifestyle choice. The pastries are dangerously French — you’ll promise to share and instantly regret it.
It’s got that effortless “I just wandered off the beach but still deserve a perfect croissant” vibe. Prices are Malibu-ish, but so is the sunshine and people-watching — and honestly, both are worth it.
Pro tip: sit outside, sip slowly, and pretend you’re waiting for your yacht to be detailed

For a $30 breakfast, it was unremarkable. I got the eggs, lox, and salad on a brioche bun. None of it was seasoned, didn’t even taste like there was salt. Super overpriced. Coffee nothing special either, I had higher expectations! The staff was super kind though.

I’ve always loved this place and regularly drive from Ojai to Malibu just to visit this café. However, during my most recent visit, I spent over $100 and left with an allergic reaction.
I’ve worked in food service for 10 years, and proper ingredient labeling is a critical responsibility—especially for customers with allergies. I didn’t go back inside to address it at the time because there was a long line and only one person working the register, but this is something that truly needs to be addressed. Clearer and more accurate food labeling is an important and necessary change.

Got the gluten free lemon cake, it was really good. Server was really nice. Location is cool, parking is tight.

Le Cafe de la Plage in Malibu surpassed our expectations during our visit on Mother’s Day. Despite being incredibly busy, the staff managed to provide us with an excellent experience. The drip coffee we ordered was simply outstanding, delivering a rich and aromatic flavor that awakened our senses. The ambiance of the cafe, coupled with the beautiful beachside location, created a serene and relaxing atmosphere. The staff remained attentive and friendly, ensuring that our needs were met even during the bustling holiday rush. We left Le Cafe de la Plage feeling satisfied and impressed by their commitment to delivering exceptional service, making it a must-visit spot for coffee enthusiasts and those seeking a delightful seaside experience. Only good vibes

I would say as far as my experience here would go. They are okay me and my wife picked up two lattes shared a sandwich and had some baked goods. One thing I will say is their wait time can definitely be very long, so definitely anticipate that. Especially for a hot sandwich like longer than you think. I think we waited 15 to 20 minutes for the sandwich. My wife did love her sandwich. I thought it was okay and the coffee was decent. I got a oat rose cold brew and I believe my wife got a caramel latte which she liked I can definitely say the baked goods tasted better. I did enjoy my lemon loaf very much I would come back to give them another shot although I will say they can get very busy especially on the weekends so definitely factor that interior time

Love the ice cream and will definitely come back! In particular, rose/raspberry/lychee and pineapple/basil sorbet are amazing!

Overall really lovely experience with the wafting smell of baked breads everywhere.
Enjoyed some pastries and breakfast but felt the price was a little high. Coffee was great and the almond croissant in particular was very enjoyable.
Very cute store that is perfect for a brunch date with ample outdoor seating.
However, food service time was a little awkward as a friend and I ordered together, the same food items, but we were served 10 minutes apart.

Very cute coffee shop located in a shopping plaza off of Pacific Coast Highway. The coffees were very good and the avocado toast was great as well. We liked it so much we decided to come back the next day for breakfast. We again were not disappointed. The coffee was again fantastic and I ordered an omelet this time around which was very good and fresh. There is ample seating located outside to sit and relax while you enjoy your meal.
