Libertine Coffee Bar
1240 Broad St, San Luis Obispo, CA
Crema's Take
“Libertine Coffee Bar is a beloved breakfast destination in San Luis Obispo where the real magic happens beyond the espresso cup—their avocado breakfast burritos and Croissanwiches have inspired loyal regulars who literally compare every other breakfast they eat to what they make here. The staff creates a genuinely warm atmosphere with attentive service, and while opinions on the food prep can be mixed, the combination of quality coffee, early opening hours, and hearty breakfast options makes it feel like the kind of neighborhood spot worth building a weekly ritual around.”

This is my go-to weekly spot for a delicious avocado breakfast burrito and vanilla latte. I travel frequently and as a fan of breakfast burritos I constantly compare to my fav at Libertine--literally none compare. The entire staff is always lovely as well.
Their coffee bar located at 1240 Broad St, San Luis Obispo, CA 93401 is a good place to grab a quality, well priced breakfast in San Luis Obispo, CA. I usually get the Croissandwich, a big croissant with eggs, cheese, onions, tomato and avocado, hold the tomato for me. It’s a big sandwich. They may use up to three eggs. Oh, their drip coffee is also good.
This place is the worst place i’ve been to in SLO. We payed so much money for a very terrible experience here. The “morning bowl” was literally a burnt scrambled egg with a side of tater tots and soggy toast… and then the waitress had the audacity to give us attitude and be all upset when we asked if it was possible to get a refund or have it remade. It was absurd — absolutely nothing was good. The chicken and waffles was literally chicken tenders—microwaved and crappy not home made waffles. The coffee wad also over sweetened and weak. the chai tasted like pure caramel syrup with oat milk.
Very conflicted review. The staff is so nice, they’re all very kind and attentive. The coffee is great not super bitter. The shop itself is very nice and clean but the food is where I’m extremely dissatisfied. Their food used to be SO good. But recently it’s gotten REALLY bad. This time I got the avocado toast. This is usually a safe thing to get as it’s hard to mess up avocado and bread but when I took my first bite I nearly spit it out. I’m not sure what they do to the bread but it tasted like it was deep fried 3 times in week old oil. My fiancé got the breakfast burrito and was also disappointed by it. It was overly greasy and barely had any bacon. I’ll come back for the coffee but I think I’ll stay away from the food from now on.
First time in SLO and decided to check this shop out, did not disappoint. Love this shop!!! Super good food & drinks! Their breakfast burrito was sooo good! Yo I was in heaven! Will need to come back and try out other food items available here. They also got this jar where they can help you decide on a drink if you’re indecisive like myself. Love the vibe. It’s also attached to its brewing company I think it’s also a brunch shop. Super cute. Friendly coworker who took our order!
