Super cute restaurant with colorful decor. It was so interesting to see all the books along the wall, and it was cool to see board games on the shelves, too.There were a lot of people when I went at lunchtime on Sunday, but it was pretty quick to order my food and get my drink immediately while waiting for my food to be freshly prepared.They validate parking in the garage on both sides of the AMLI.The jackfruit bowl was chock full of veggies and had a strong BBQ flavor with a spicy kick. I liked the crunch of slivered almonds in the dish. The iced tea was unsweetened, and I didn’t see any sweeteners laid out with the compostable utensils, so I guess this place is really healthy, lol.Great service, and the staff was really friendly and welcoming. You can walk around the corner and see all the boats in the marina. Such a pretty place!
We had a wonderful lunch. We sat outside on the cute outdoor patio. We both ordered three Chicken Athena salad. It was flavorful and full of delicious fresh dark chicken meat. Absolutely loved it!
A cute spot! We enjoyed our lattes outside on the patio and our kids enjoyed the space outside where they could run and play. We will definitely return to try the food. The menu looked healthy and delicious!
Very tasty, and I highly recommend getting the honey coins loyalty program. Its not the kind of thing that makes you feel obligated to go there more than you would normally but the rewards are good. I would not recommend the acai bowl unless you want something really sweet. Good coffee drinks
Peaceful outdoor seating, nice to just sit with a cup of coffee and feel the warmth of sunshine. Very exciting menu! My favorite is BBQ Jack and Shroom Bowl 😋 also deliciousss kombucha
Cool little spot with healthy eats. Usually a bit busy. Food was okay. Wouldn’t rave. Smoothies are good.
Beautiful delicious salmon toast. Enjoyed the outdoor seating. Why not drop by for a coffee and healthy food. Tell them Joe sent you. . . They will say Joe Who? Thats me.
Lunch bowls were great. Coffee, not so much. We ordered an oatmilk flat white and an oatmilk latte but both were huge. Not the right size for what we ordered. Otherwise we will be going back.
I love the Hive Santa Monica. I live a block away from the mdr location and have been waiting for ages for them to open. And what a disappointment. I tried 3 different things and I wasnt super happy with the food. I wasnt going to write a review because thats not my thing but today I drove to the sm location and found out that they are replacing the menu with the one in mdr. Im very disappointed with this decision and I think they just lost me as a customer. The breakfast burrito is the best. Please keep it on your menu.
5 Stars all around! Wild catch bowl was delicious, fresh and healthy! Mint Matcha smoothie...DELICIOUS! Super friendly staff and beautiful outdoor seating! Will be back!
Stopped in for lunch and had such a wonderful experience! Chicken Athena salad was delicious. Great drink options and staff was so kind and welcoming!
Excellent customer service, clean, very healthy food dishes. Great avocado toast w/poached egg. Very nice variety of food & beverages.
Fresh, on-tap kombucha, yummy. The acai bowls are great and large. I love the vibe here. Super nice staff. Sunny inside from lots of windows. Nice outside seating area right on the marina.
Love coming here but not sure what happened to the açaí bowl recipe? It’s just straight ice. There’s no flavor.
The Bone Broth left a ton to be desired - lukewarm, flavorless, and watery. We were pretty disappointed after seeing good reviews and coming a long way just for the broth. We tried two chicken based ones since they were out of beef broth. Maybe those were better.The place itself is small but cute and the staff is friendly. The right start bowl was delicious and healthy. Skip the bone broth and try other options.
Love ❤️ everything. Delicious food, nice portions, great prices, green packaging, ordering/app, ambiance and Happy Peeps
I was looking for something to eat for breakfast after having a tough long week and I didnt want to do Door dash because it was too expensive I ordered the breakfast burrito and it was so good! I just wish I would have gotten coffee too
Overrated and overpriced Acai bowl... They do have free WiFi and outlets so could be a nice place to get some work done.
Love the menu, atmosphere, and convenience but the prices are a bit ridiculous - especially when you pay $13-$17 for an açaí bowl and the bowl is all granola and fruit. I’ve never ruined a few times to the staff but it’s super inconsistent and is making myself and the locals find other options - when they could have rally consistent regulars. I really hope they make an effort to fix this soon!
I eat there every single day (the cafe is within 1 minute walk of my sailboat and apartment). A truly great place with great vibe with great food (try their açaí bowl or healthy salmon dish) and friendly staff. And a gorgeous view of the marina and boats. A true LA gem!
Incredible food. I moved from SF and was looking for a great healthy smoothie and bowl place and this hits the spot. Great staff and the smoothies are great. Ive been here six times now and just tried a custom cold bowl and it was amazing! So happy this opened up!
Amazing ambience and even better food. Much needed addition to the area. The moment you walk in youre welcomed by their very friendly staff. Once youre done admiring their incredible wall art work you can enjoy your food outside with a stunning view overlooking the Marina. the atmosphere is chill and trendy. They only use fresh ingredients for their smoothies and bowls. Their açaí bowls are mouthwatering. Ill be back as soon as Im in the area.
Delicious healthy salads and bowls. Very warm and happy new neighborhood spot. Lots of healthy drinks.I asked them to get a particular brand of chai tea that my wife loves. They ordered it happily and texted me when it arrived. Whenever he come in now, we are greeted by name.Also has a really nice outdoor space. Check it out!
I am visiting the area, and this was my second day in a row getting breakfast at The Hive. The dragonfruit açaí bowl and cold brew are amazing! The bowl had just the right amount of topping (which sometimes other açaí shops lack). The cashier also remembered me from the day before which was so sweet! All the employees are very nice. It is a great atmosphere and the overall branding is very unique. From the graphics on the iced coffee cups to the addition of bee pollen in the açaí bowl (I am a big believe in bee pollen in your diet and I have never seen another açaí shop do this). 👏👏👏
The food is amazing! I wish there was one near where I live and I would probably be eating there 3 times a day. The price is a bit steep but hey its costs more to eat organic. Warm and cold bowls are out of thos world!
Great neighborhood healthy smoothie / lunch spot. Highly recommend!
We are visiting LA. We went to the Hive @ Marina Del Ray and we had some salads and we ordered a smoothie. My salad tasted like mud! The mushroom tasted like soil/earthy and it overwhelmed my whole salad. My poor son had his salmon salad and he ate only the salmon and said the salad tasted horrible! My hubby had his wrap and he couldn’t finish it. The smoothie my son ordered was suppose to have mango, banana pineapple etc. I told them to not add the banana instead add more mango, OMG! the whole smoothie tasted pineapple and and not a taste of mango! When we got back to the hotel, my son had very very bad diarrhea!!!! He was crying and saying his tummy hurts so bad. We were staying at the Rirz-Carlton and had to run out to get him pepto bismol and Gatorade!!! He became soWeak. After taking the PEPTO a couple of times he felt better. Then after that I diarrhea and had to take the same to feel better. NEVER EVER EVER WILL I GO TO THIS PLACE!!!
Meh. Ive given this place so many chances. Ive taken friends and the husband. Every one agrees with me. Not worth the hype. Save your money and seriously go anywhere else.
10/10 experience + food. The team is incredibly friendly, my açaí bowl was one of the best I’ve had, and I highly recommend their chagaccino! I only wish I lived closer so that I could become a regular.
The Hive definitely did not leave a good first impression. Arrive at 830am, ask for a coffee. Oh we haven’t made our coffee yet, but you can get a latte. Order two, one regular and one non fat. 10 mins later (place not busy), here are your two non fat lattes. Messed up the order and they were just average. Definitely not impressed. And they were overpriced.
Immaculate. All the employees are immaculate, linn, Amelia -and even the owner Constantine is immaculate. Just absolutely immaculate
I posted previously with a complaint, but Ive been back and everything has been fabulous at the Hive. The only reason I give it 4 stars vs 5 is because its a bit pricey but they do have a reward system in place for repeat customers!
An adorable atmosphere with super fresh and tasty food. Staff is super friendly. I feel like I could call this place home!
Love the Hives options, healthy and fresh. Plus!! Michaela generates such a welcoming atmosphere its always a blast coming over and grabbing something to eat!
The menu options make no sense, and the food has less flavor than anywhere else that charges as much for food. Did I mention it took more than 15 minutes for my BOWL to be made? Crazy
BBQ Jackfruit Wrap is my go to! They stuff the wrap with with sweet potato, chili garlic broccolini, brussel sprouts, red cabbage, sweet corn and cauliflower rice 10/10!
This place will quickly becoming a neighborhood landmark. From their top quality all natural ingredients, to unique recipes rich with flavors and nutrients, there is something here everyone can enjoy.
Fresh, healthy, tasty sauces. Very allergy friendly. Nice spot for a quick bite. Definitely would go back.
It’s very hard to find a place that can actually work for a food sensitivities diet. So grateful I found this spot. Wishing there was one near where I live in LA.
So glad there’s now an outpost near us in MDR! I’ve long loved the Santa Monica location and am so glad there’s a place to get delicious healthy food & coffee within walking distance!
Pretty good, and doggo paradise! Make sure to check out the bathroom, even if you dont need to go
Was treated kind of rude until she found out the person I came in with was doing a. Yelp review. The food and location are good.
Friendly staff, tasty coffee and healthy food.
Dude the breakfast burrito is so bomb!!!
A quick stop for really delicious smoothies and açaí bowls. Definitely recommend.
They have the best bowls in town. I especially like their new shroom bowl!
The wrap had bad flavor it was just gross, not sure what it was but really did not enjoy
Fresh and healthy bowls with a nice outdoor seating area
Delicious healing drinks !
Delicious avocado toast
Healthy and delicious.
Fresh ingredients. Fresh decorations. Fresh service. Fresh, Fresh, Fresh.
One of few food store in that area
The best
Excellent customer service
Delicious healthy food!
Yummy food

Healthy food, therefore expensive, I have been able to verify that healthy food is expensive.

2022-06-24Find this hidden gem and food is so so so good - five stars for the chicken salad bowl, açaí bowl, and the berry salad bowl we got. Just came back from Hawaii and the açaí here is just as good. The salad bowls are very tasty too - such a delicious and healthy place!

2022-07-04Quintessential healthy but tasty food. We found this by chance as we were looking for a place to eat close to Marina Beach. Pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and the smoothies. We got several smoothies - sun god, tropicali, bees knees, matcha mint chip, and a breakfast burrito, avocado toast, the daily special omelette and the shroom bowl. Everything was good but my cousin did not like sun god as much as expected because it was heavy, too chocolate-y and had a stronger coffee flavor than he wouldve liked. I loved the matcha mint chip as it was a great mix of matcha, mint, spinach and banana and felt refreshing and cleansing at the same time. The tropicali and bees knees were both refreshing and delicious.The food was excellent. Avocado toast in particular was very very good. The shroom bowl was impressive as was the omelette. We also liked the breakfast burrito. All in all, this was a great little find. I also found a couple of interesting chocolate bars. If you check in on Yelp, you get a free iced tea.

2021-10-22A gem of a place, hidden away by the Marina.The Nitro Cold Brew Coffee and Orange Tumeric cold-pressed juice were both fantastic. Topped off by their original Hive Acai Bowl.All really healthy and delicious!

2021-07-11Great place for a healthy lunch break. I got the superfood pesto bowl with the amazing pulled chicken - loved it . Didn’t feel too heavy after. My mom got the chicken Steven’s (which was fairly similar to mine) and she likes it too.

2021-06-14The Hive does not fall into a traditional breakfast place, unless you are from California perhaps. The Hive features acai bowls with various toppings. You can build your own. The toppings can include everything from coconut to been pollen. You can create a crunchy topping which really adds an eating dimension. What you will not find is the traditional bacon and egg but it is worth the visit. The bowls were surprisingly filling.

2022-02-17Id say its a decent place to grab a quick bite. Musics too loud though and very upbeat, gets tiring after about 15 minutes so not sure how the workers handle being all day here. Id like to be able to sit down have a chat with a friend or get some work done on the laptop but this place just isnt suited for that. For comfort while sitting inside, it would be nice if there were window shades or tint (and umbrellas for outside tables) - it gets really sunny with floor to ceiling windows. Im seeing people literally shielding their eyes with a hand as theyre chatting over a table. But maybe comfort isnt the point here.

2021-06-26Health-focused eatery by the marina. Came here on a Wednesday evening to have an original acai bowl and iced tea for dinner (you have a choice of passion fruit or jasmine). The acai bowl was super tasty and came with a generous amount of granola, coconut flakes, strawberries and bananas. There was some bee pollen as well, which I thought was a cute touch. The jasmine iced tea was light and refreshing (no sugar added).The cashier was nice and the food came out quickly. You can easily get in and out within an hour. There’s a parking garage with the first 15 min free, though the restaurant also has 1 hour validation for parking. I parked at the one on the right hand side (by the orange theory). Outdoor and indoor seating is available. There’s a single occupant bathroom available. Dogs were allowed. Credit cards are accepted.Overall, there are some great tasty and fresh options for a quick meal!
