We are thrilled to introduce our premium Australian-style coffee and café fare to Los Angeles locals. Our first LA location is situated amongst the dynamism of the stylish and alluring Studio City.
Cradled within the San Fernando Valley, our new Bluestone Lane at 12186 Ventura Boulevard is in the heart of Silver Triangle, Studio City. Surrounded by some of the city's most unique and on-trend stores and eateries, we are excited to introduce ourselves as the newest premium coffee shop on the block.
The design
Generous 14-foot ceilings open the space, enhancing the feel of this quaint coffee shop. The walls are clad with plywood slats that create a unique sculptural geometric interior, and a skylight provides natural light to the space. Venetian plaster walls and polished concrete floors are contrasted with millwork features and whitewashed timber, softening the industrial feel of the space. This is further enhanced by ornamental feature walls of mint julep tiles and leafy watercolor wallpaper that bring the space to life, complemented by a plethora of greenery. The inviting street presence of this Bluestone Lane is emphasized by iconic bright blue branded umbrellas and ample outdoor seating. Enjoy a Flat White in the Los Angeles sunshine and watch the world go by as you take a relaxing break from your day.
Food and drink offering
Our Studio City location features all of the Bluestone Lane favorites, including an array of takeaway options and made-to-order delights such as our famously popular #AvoSmash.

This is my "go-to" coffee shop most mornings in Studio City. Somehow Bluestone has managed to make a "chain" coffee shop with multiple locations, feel like a local spot. The baristas are great here, and mostly why I come - always kind, always remembering the regulars names, and super consistent in their drink-making. Unlike some other places, where you are never sure the quality that you are going to get, I think the Studio City baristas are consistent in their excellent coffee-making.

I've been ordering the Laird here for a while now and it's genuinely never once been off — same great cup, every single visit. That consistency alone would keep me coming back, but honestly it's the people that make this place. They know me by name, they know my order, and there's a warmth to how they treat regulars that you just don't get most places.
If you're looking for a coffee shop that feels like it actually knows you, this is the one. Best neighborhood coffee shop in Studio City!

A True Local’s Paradise ☕️🥑
Bluestone Lane has officially become one of my favorite neighborhood pit stops in Studio City! From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with genuine smiles, amazing staff, and a team that truly cares about the local community — and it shows.
It’s become that perfect spot where the neighborhood locals know they can stop in, grab an incredible coffee, enjoy some great food, and feel right at home. It’s not just a coffee shop — it has all the little café perks that make you want to keep coming back.
My usual order? An Oat Milk Latte with their handmade vanilla — absolutely perfect and such a delicious touch. ☕️
For food, I’m all about the sourdough avocado toast with salmon when I want something fresh and packed with protein. For lunch, the Chicken Club Toastie is a go-to. And when I’m in the mood for something refreshing, the AG1 Smoothie never disappoints. 🥑🥪🥤
Overall, Bluestone Lane is one of those places that becomes part of your routine without you even realizing it. Great coffee, great food, incredible staff, and most importantly, a genuine neighborhood feel.
Thank you, Bluestone Lane, Gloria, Genesis, Rachel, Lia for being such a great part of the Studio City community. You guys are GREAT! ❤️☕️
