Roxa Hammock Cafe

Pretty good drinks, but this place gives me the ick. Really worth pointing out that they have a drink that contains betel nut, an addictive and carcinogenic simulant that's considered a greater public health risk than tobacco in many parts of the world. And that's just one thing I know about, god knows what else they're putting in their drinks here. There are a lot of harmful botanical drugs that are unregulated in the US for one reason or another (kratom, for example, and I wouldn't be surprised if something here has that in it) and whoever's running this place doesn't seem to have any concern for what exactly they're selling. Honestly I'm sure that's a selling point for most of the customers, but I'm just putting this information out there for the more discerning. Personally, I'm not big on the crystal shop vibe of this place and the unfounded health claims they tout for almost their entire menu. I do, however, genuinely think their stuff taste pretty good, though it can be overpriced. Just make sure you understand what's in it.

Ambience is very nice. I dint like the taste cause it was weird muddy-ish taste. We tried latte, dirty chai and mexican mocha.

The food was fantastic, but the service was extremely disappointing. We waited nearly an hour for our order, and we overheard staff complaining about customers who asked about their food.

I love this place a lot! So inspiring, inviting, and homey! Im just so amazed by the creativity that went into everything this little escape in downtown Santa cruz! Amazing! Say less, just go! Your staff is also amazing! They found my wallet! Tell the nice lady who made my smoothie and found my wallet thank you so much! I forgot her name but she was lovely and is studying fire safety in school. She rocks! Give her a raise!

Looking for an exceptional experience that is far different from the norm? This is a must place to checkout! The environment is beyond unique, relaxing, and fun... and the vibe is mysterious and comfortable. The menu is a bit confusing the 1st time around, but the staff was helpful to explain. At first, the staff seemed stand-off like, and I wasn't sure how long to wait and where to get service, but once I did, they were very attentive and knowledgeable. The drinks were tough to choose from with such a wide and odd variety, but the one I got was off the charts! Enjoying the delectable delight in a glass while swinging in the hammock chair was exotic and heavenly like. I look forward to returning and trying more concoctions from their potion menu.
