Main Street Santa Monica at 2802 Main Street, Santa Monica, California.

I love main street because it still has a unique Santa Monica vibe. Some of the chains have snuck in, but for the most part it is original stores and cafes. Locals tend to hang here rather than be enveloped in the crowds at third Street promenade. Unfortunately rent hikes have closed some of my local favorites (give it up for and pour out your 40 for omelette parlour and eat love pizza ) but still some other places to check out.
