What a fun place!! Great beach atmosphere. Service was great!! Good is so good!!! A new fav breakfast spot

I stopped by Bluey's on a Friday around lunch time and was surprised to see how busy it was! We ordered at the counter inside, then grabbed a table outside with our pup. There is patio seating right in front of the restaurant and in the adjacent alleys. We ordered the Whirley Bowl (5/5), Halloumi Tartine (5/5), and Steak Sandwich (4/5). The Whirley Bowl was definitely my favorite. The pineapple salsa was sooo delicious and provided the right amount of sweetness to the rest of the ingredients. All of the food tasted incredibly fresh and healthy. I didn't have a chance to try any of their drinks, but I'm looking forward to trying their matcha latte next time.

Perfect spot for brunch and lunch! They literally have everything one can crave for breakfast-- from burritos to açaí bowls to pancakes. I came here for a late brunch with a friend and loved the spot! We got there and ordered our food at the front counter. The staff is very friendly and they explained the menu and their beverage options. I got Pedro's burrito with chicken and it was very filling and delicious. I was craving something sweet so my friend and I shared some sweet squash pancakes... they hit the spot, tasty, with the perfect amount of granola and fruit in top. They have seating available inside and outside. We went on a Sunday afternoon and it was busy, but we managed to find a spot to sit down inside. The restaurant is in the middle of an industrial area, so I was a bit confused when I first arrived. Once I made it to the restaurant, I found myself surrounded with beach vibes. I will be coming back for yummy brunch!

Overall: food is on point and the vibes are great Food: 5/5 Bluey's breakfast with a side of steak was well balanced and flavorful. Highly recommend. My friends really enjoyed the breakfast burrito though the sauce was spicy. Service: 5/5 Food was fast to come out. Cashier was friendly as well. Ambiance: 5/5 A soft thrum of music. Tables are well spaced to give noise protection. Casual and approachable decor.

Blueys in Santa Monica is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, the cozy and inviting atmosphere makes you feel right at home. The standout dish for me has to be the butternut squash pancakes. They are nothing short of divine--light, fluffy, and they practically melt in your mouth. The perfect blend of sweet and savory, these pancakes are a must-try and truly set Blueys apart. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring a delightful dining experience every time. If you're in Santa Monica, Blueys is a breakfast spot you cannot miss!

The food here is really good! The ambiance is okay, and the service can be a little slow even when they're not busy. I would skip the shakes, but the actual food here is really great! I would recommend the Sweet Squash Pancakes and Breakfast Burrito as a great sweet and savory combo, both were really good! Food: 4.5/5 Drinks: 3/5 Service: 3/5 Value: 4/5 Overall: 4/5

This place has come to be one of my favorite brunch spots in Santa Monica. A place for a quick delicious and healthy meal or a more leisurely meal with friends. Always fantastic!!

FOOD/DRINK: Had the 'The Bowl Formerly Known As,' which is greens, cauliflower rice, two falafel, hummus, an egg, and cabbage. This felt very healthy and was the perfect portion size, and there was enough flavor for something so light. I appreciated the creativity in this dish. There were a LOT of vegetarian options, and they sounded tasty, so I'd return to give them a try. Had a cappuccino for coffee, which was okay (seemed more like a latte by volume). AMBIENCE: I'd dock a star here - it's great for working during the week, catching up with a friend over coffee, or a meal with a slightly larger group (like 6-8 people). There's outdoor seating, as well as "indoors" - though the latter technically opens up to the elements, so it does get a little chilly on windier days (recommend bringing a sweater if it's not summer). Indoor/outdoor means you can see some critters (e.g., little mice) "inside," but it's LA, so that's expected. There is parking in the alley, and if none there, then street parking nearby. The vibe is surfer, chill, hip. The music is on the louder side.

One of the best brunch spots I've been to! I highly recommend theirs bowls and the sweet squash pancakes. The food was so fresh, flavorful, and clean!! There's a ton of outdoor seating as well Parking: the restaurant is located in a narrow alley so parking is limited. There's tons of spots if you park on the next street up.
