Favorite local coffee shop. Located in the landmark Jeff Ho Surfboards and Zephyr Productions space on the corner of Main & Bay Street in Santa Monica, Dogtown Coffee was born out of a desire to honor and protect a key piece of American skateboard and surfing history, and provide a place for community to hang-out and come together.
DTC serves fun, rustic, health conscious all-day breakfast and lunch, gluten-free and vegan fare, artisan baked treats, and our signature organic, locally micro-roasted coffee and wide selection of organic loose leaf teas. DTC Favorites include breakfast burritos, açai bowls, salads and paninis, and of course, the DTC Sweet ‘n Salty Caramel Iced Coffee.

The Brentwood Country Mart, a small collection of shops and restaurants, is something of a local landmark in this community. Established back in 1948, it's a modest little center, but it has its own rustic, New England charm. Not unlike a small version of Farmers Market - only trendier.
From the outside, this old-fashioned shopping center looks just like a large red barn, replete with green awnings and white wood trim. Inside, you'll find 26 quaint shops tucked away between shady brick courtyards and winding walkways. It's the kind of place where you half expect to run into a celebrity around the next corner
