This place is pricey, but well, it’s a fancy hotel / place! Deserts / Pastries - 10 each (deserts are not big at all), but it’s the first place in a long time where we liked velvet cake. San Pedro chocolate caramel bar was OK, just too sweet. Earl grey tea was good (very often other places have it tasteless). Nice patio outside, nice interior, friendly staff. We liked it overall.

Truly one of our favorite stops during our visit abd stay. I highly suggest you getting a to-go order of their decorated and savory pastries and dessert on the day you check out.

Very nice atmosphere, located at the entrance of the Terranea Resort in Palos Verdes, CA. A great place to have a coffee and pastry or a gelato or even a sandwich for lunch. You can relax and see activity around you. Quite a pleasant experience whether seated inside or out.

Always been our go-to cafe in PV, because of the location and the tasty treats. Enjoyed a tiramisu dessert, hazelnut latte, and coconut cold brew this weekend. Perfect weather to enjoy the treats outdoors.

My husband and I were visiting friends and we decided to try the Gelato (Strawberry Rose and Cookies n Cream) at Sea Beans. Delicious! And wonderful setting outside at the bistro tables. We went for a walk at Terranea afterwards. Great experience!
