Offset Coffee - El Segundo

A new branch of the South Bay's best coffee, five minutes from my house. 

My habit is about to get a lot more expensive, as we savor a hot cup of drip and enjoy an iced Matcha Latte. 

The drinks are fantastic, and it's cool to snack but you're not here for the food. They have some pretty good pastries from an outside bakery, and classics like the ABJ are nice to nibble on, but nothing you can't make at home for a fraction of the cost.

They've got a lot of growing pains right now as they face the mad rush of eager patrons, but your order will arrive if you're willing to wait. They don't have a lot of tables so it's best to take your order to go, but whatever you feel like doing, just head over and enjoy the joe. 

Offset Coffee - Torrance

Pre-pandemic, before baby, back when I had time to sit in a coffee shop to study, to stew, or just to get things done without the distractions of home, Offset would have been my jam. I would have spent hours sipping a cuppa coffee, savoring the tranquility, relishing the quiet buzz.

That part of my life is over, but my love for Offset is not. They sell their blends in bags, made for your home grinder so you can bring the magic back. 

But once in a while, we do get a moment to grab something to go. I love my classic Cappuccino, and they know how to make one right. And what's coffee without a sweet, crumbly slab of Coffee Cake?

The menu is overwhelming, but sticking with a simple Drip Coffee will always be a win.. Pair with this fall/winter Galette, a flaky crust-purse full of sweet sliced apple. 

I love Offset. Come for a cup of the best coffee in Torrance!
