Great for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Fresh California fare. Try the salmon bowl! No alcohol, but I think you can bring a bottle. Chic across the street has beer/wine & great dinner. Same owners.

The BEST donuts. I love donuts, but I won't waste the calories on a bad one. These are worth it. They also have good croissant breakfast sandwiches, smoothies, juices, coffee, etc.

Getting Around

This is the closest stop to catch the Metro. Head west to the beach stopping at the Platform in Culver City for some shopping, browsing, eating/drinking at Cannibal, and continue to Santa Monica on the train or head east toward the Natural History Museum, California Science Center to see the space shuttle, or go all the way to Grand Central station to explore downtown.

Hiking

A beautiful hike that is near the beach. You can also check out the equestrian center. Not too hard for kids but you will get some exercise. Take water and snacks because there isn't much close by.
