Dune Coffee Roasters
250 A Storke Rd, Goleta, CA
Crema's Take
“Dune Coffee Roasters in Goleta is a buzzing, Instagram-worthy spot where espresso-focused drinks and carefully poured coffees pair perfectly with excellent bagels and scones, though the popularity means you'll likely share the experience with a lively crowd. The spacious, trendy vibe and outdoor seating make it feel like a proper destination rather than a quick caffeine stop, even if service can be a bit scattered during the rush. Fair warning: arrive with patience and an appetite, because the coffee quality and pastries are genuinely worth the occasional wait.”

Delicious coffee, delicious bagels, it’s really crowded, but it’s worth it.
The coffee is very good although sometimes it is not as hot as I would like. The atmosphere is decent, sometimes you get people having a loud zoom meeting with no headphones on which isn't really dune's fault but it can be obnoxious. Judging on flavor alone it's probably my favorite coffee around.
I've been a loyal customer of Dune Coffee Roasters since they first opened their doors in downtown Santa Barbara, but I'm sad to say the experience has deteriorated significantly. The service has become notably poor, with staff often acting as though they're doing you a favor rather than providing hospitality—basic customer service training seems desperately needed. While the coffee itself is decent, it now feels overpriced for what you actually receive, especially given the lackluster service. I hope they can turn things around because the potential is there, but right now I can't recommend it as I once did.
Nice vibe, the blueberry scone was superb! The coffee was a bit too acidic too my taste. We ordered 3 drinks and barista forgot one :)
Fun spot with great coffee. Big trendy space, some seating inside. Have fun merch too. Coffee was great. Avocado toast was nice but pricey ($9 for 1 slice???) They also have some outdoor seating inside the front and back.
