I had the pleasure of visiting this place recently and I was not disappointed. I ordered a warm chai & my husband ordered a nitro flash brew, both were delicious. The staff from beginning until the end were very kind and added to the cozy and warm ambiance. I also love how open it is and its just a perfect space to get work done i would highly recommend as a space to get out of the office and get some work done or if your in the mood for some good coffee.
Visited for the first time today. Sadly, I was not impressed. I ordered a med size coffee. The only options were an Americano or a french press. Americano shots in hot water make a weak tasting cup of coffee. So I chose the french press. It took way too long to get it. The coffee was weak and only luke warm. Either not enough coffee was used and or the water was not hot enough for good results. The band was practicing in the room next door. It was unecessarily, way too loud. So loud that the building was vibrating and the noise made having a conversation or the ability to concentrate working on a laptop or to read a book, very difficult. Another customer said the same thing regarding the noise, but there was no one available to speak to about it. Over all, I was very disappointed. The other customer said they were too and would not be back, neither will I. It's really too bad because it could have been great....🫤
This is the greatest cafe in Santa Cruz and I’ll fight you. It’s beautiful, friendly and clean with mostly well-priced food options, though one time I got a microscopic avocado toast for $9. Very high quality coffee sourced from a few different producers.
Fantastic customer service! Everyone is always so kind and happy to chat:) Always quick and great quality coffee! I love their seasonal options. Their breakfast sandwiches are super yummy and fresh. Always clean, always great music playing. Baby changing table available in the bathroom and room for a stroller if needed, plenty of parking, and lots of indoor and outdoor seating options.
Beautiful open concept coffee shop. Great airflow, so many good places to sit and enjoy. I struggle with deciding inside or out but outside always wins, great ocean breeze and sunshine are hard to beat. The coffee is good but honestly it's all about the location for us. Sunday parking can be difficult because there is a big church nearby.
