Ten by Bar Nine has quickly made a name for itself in Marina Del Rey as a go-to café that blends exceptional coffee with a chic, modern ambiance. Guests rave about the remarkable coffee—a highlight being the mocha, deemed the best in town by patrons like Nick Mennell. The shop's unique espresso technique, which eschews traditional machines, adds a fascinating twist that enthusiastic customers can't recommend enough.
The menu is just as impressive. Diners appreciate offerings like the open bagel breakfast and lox plate, praised for their freshness and delightful presentation. Meagan Trabert’s experience with the orange latte and hazelnut milk speaks volumes about the café’s commitment to taste, while others note the welcoming vibe that makes it ideal for casual meet-ups or focused laptop work.
The café's interior reflects a modern minimalist design, providing a spacious, comfortable environment that accommodates both crowd and solitude. As noted by Loris Peyrache, the reasonable pricing for such quality is a rare find. Whether you're after a breakfast spot or a caffeine fix, Ten by Bar Nine promises an experience that’s hard to surpass—a new treasure in the realm of local coffee culture.

Absolutely phenomenal coffee shop. Another of these coffee shop experiences that has me questioning other five star reviews I’ve dished out, just in wanting to differentiate these guys. I guess the best way to differentiate them in this review is to acknowledge that there are not many coffee shops that would inspire me to visit multiple days in a row. This one does and has. I have had both the open bagel breakfast and the lox plate and both were phenomenal. As was the coffee (best mocha I’ve had in town now). And the service, vibe and ambience was top notch. Definitely a new favorite spot.

High-end, bougie, modern aesthetics to the coffee shop. They have lots of good coffee and food options. If you get a iced coffee they give you a glass jar as well!

Ordered the orange late with hazelnut milk (recommended to me). Super pleasant atmosphere and fresh tasting. Not overly caffeinated.

The place is a modern minimalist yet comfortable layout that exaggerates space. While it would accomdate crowds, it was not crowded when we went. Seating was plenty and you have a lot of your own space. Coffee is pretty good and the bagels are good and kind of a unique take. My lox bagel had a nice thick slice of heirloom tomato (pictured)

Great place for breakfast or just a coffee break. Reasonably priced for the quality you get. They have a unique patented espresso technique that is worth trying (it doesn’t require an espresso machine). Great place to do some laptop work as well. 11/10 recommend!!

I enjoy spending time at this coffee shop. It emanates a fantastic vibe, making it an ideal spot to accomplish tasks outside of the office. The quality of the food is consistently high, which is an additional bonus. The staff here are always friendly, enhancing the overall experience. Each visit provides a sense of relief, as the environment is conducive to relaxation and productivity. When it comes to their coffee, it's nothing short of amazing, deserving a perfect score of 10. They craft their own hazelnut flavor which infuses my lattes with a unique and delightful taste. Although the location is somewhat hidden, it adds to the charm and atmosphere of the place. The ambiance is undeniably inviting and comfortable. If you're looking for a great place to unwind and get some work done while enjoying delicious food and excellent coffee, this is definitely a location worth checking out.

Adorable lil spot, friendly staff, good coffee, great selection of baked goods and hot savories. Def worth stopping by when in the area! Not sure how easy parking is / if the neaeby garage is available to public or tenants/residents of the attached bldg. Also, for cold coffee togo, they will serve in a glass bottle (deposit) which you can bring back for discount of next purchase.

Best bagels in the area! I couldn’t believe how fresh and delicious these bagels were. It’s so cool you can see how they are making them right in front of you. There’s tons of options to choose from. Inside is very nice. Staff was super friendly. I will definitely be coming back for more bagels. The only problem was the lack of parking in the area.
