Culver City
Café Surfas
Culver City, CA, 90232, United States
An offshoot of the Surfas Restaurant Supply & Gourmet Food shop, this casual café serves breakfast and lunch dishes that incorporate artisan ingredients from the adjacent store. A whimsical walkway decorated with imprints of kitchen tools leads to the entrance of the restaurant, which contains chalkboard menus, a handful of wooden tables, and glass display cases filled with freshly baked cookies and lavender-lemon bars. During the warmer months, a shaded outdoor patio provides additional seating. Menu options range from homemade breakfast biscuits to signature sandwiches like the “ultimate grilled cheese”: white cheddar, fontina, and blue-cheese mayo on pecan-raisin bread.
Insider Tip:
After your meal, walk next door to the shop and sign up for one of the many cooking classes, which might include Spices 101, Greek Island Cooking, and Sushi Making.
