Crema's Take
“Sanctuary Coffee channels 100% of its profits to local charities and social causes, making every visit feel like activism you can actually enjoy—and the espresso-focused drinks and thoughtfully designed seating areas across multiple indoor and outdoor spaces make it genuinely worth lingering in. The ceramic mugs, creative nooks for studying or dates, and peaceful atmosphere have earned it a devoted local following in Ontario, CA, so expect a busy but welcoming crowd that shares your values.”
What to expect
Espresso-focused. A slow-sit, laptop-friendly spot, good for meetings.

This is a great coffee shop with a great mission (donations go to support charities who are on the front lines of social concerns). The brewed coffee is good. The indoor seating has several different options. There are several tables both larger and smaller for getting work…
