Spazio Caffe opens today on Montana Avenue in Santa Monica. Coming from the owners of Caffe Bellos, Spazio is an Italian espresso temple descended from the country’s chain of the same name, serving only San Vendemiano’s Manuel espresso beans, along with an extensive list of 35 teas, eighteen hot chocolates, fresh-baked pastries, sandwiches, salads, and gelato.
Everything from the brewing equipment to the design to the staff’s training can be traced back to The Boot here, with beans grinded fresh to-order and options for breakfast, lunch, and a light dinner designed by Locanda del Lago chef Pierpaolo Mattei. Today’s soft-opening will be followed by a grand-opening on January 26, during which the first 50 guests will get a free cup of coffee. Openings in Venice and at another Santa Monica address will follow. See the full food and drink menus below.
Spazio Caffé, 1511 Montana Ave. #C. Santa Monica.
