Castelli’s Caffe & Deli. Seacliff area
236 Santa Cruz Ave Suite A, Capitola, CA
Crema's Take
“Nestled in Capitola's Seacliff area, this charming Italian-inspired café is a beloved local secret where generosity of spirit matches the quality of the espresso, with regulars returning for both the exceptional breakfast sandwiches and the warm hospitality of owner Nonna Chris. The sunny outdoor seating and thoughtfully crafted menu of traditional drinks, fresh pastries, and house-made fare make it the kind of unpretentious gathering spot where families linger over coffee and conversation, whether you're a regular or stumbling upon it for the first time on your way to the beach.”

A hidden gem off the main road, and worth seeking out! Great espresso beverages, and a breakfast sandwich that ranks as one of the best I've ever had. Friendly staff, outdoor seating, and some unique Italian food items. If you're cycling down the coast, or visiting Seacliff beach, mark this as a refueling stop.
My 3rd visit to Castelli's.... Nonna Chris is an angel who has blessed me with hospitality and love of coffee and food but most importantly family. I go here with my Abuelita. We love the sandwiches the cafecito. Molto bene.... What an incredible vibration and atmosphere of authentic Roman love. I never leave without a grip of Cannolis. I tried the chicken bacon ranch today and their breakfast burrito. The staff is family and prepares the food with supreme love. Please visit this business and find out what I speak of for your self. They also have Italian goods that will enhance your life and kitchen game. Blessings to the Castellis
Love this place. Great menu and service. We were welcomed with a bright smile and a positive attitude. So many great things to choose from. A wide beverage selection as well as some amazing cannoli! Definitely recommend a stop here. If you are headed to the beach it is very conveniently located.
First time her, glad I saw the sign at the Entrance to Seacliff Beach. I got me a nice Toasted Pastrami Sandwich. It was delicious. i will definitely visit again.
Great place. Came with my family on our way to the beach. Good selection of sandwiches and other things. They didn’t have tuna made so made it fresh for my sandwich without issue. My wife loved her coffee. We all liked our sandwiches. Very well made. The people that helped us were all friendly. The owner/grandmother I assume personally thanked us for coming in. This is a great little family owned business that we will be returning to. Highly recommend. Liked this better than Pixies.
