Twenty South

Crema's Take
“This San Luis Obispo gem housed in the public market combines thoughtfully crafted espresso drinks with genuinely excellent food that keeps customers coming back—regulars rave about the perfectly spiced breakfast potatoes and fresh ingredients that feel homemade rather than rushed. Owner Andre and his team create such a genuinely welcoming atmosphere that even first-time visitors describe feeling "at home," making it the kind of place where you can linger over a specialty drink or grab a quick Americano depending on your mood. With a 4.8-star rating backed by passionate reviews from a food science professor to families, Twenty South proves that a specialty coffee shop can absolutely nail both the beverage craft and the hospitality.”

The food here was amazing! I wish I took a picture but it looked too good and I was hungry. First time here and I loved they spices they used on my potatoes and it was the perfect balance with sauteed vegetables. I was also pleased with the potions. I walked to the kitchen and thanked the cook. He seemed very proud of his work, said he hand slices the potatoes and said that he has his own blend of spices that people love. He calls it 'crack spice' and I must admit, I AM HOOKED!
Both times I have eaten at Twenty South have been amazing experiences! The workers here are super sweet and caring as well as the owner Andre. The food and drinks are delicious and service was unforgettable! I will definitely be back again soon!
As a food science professor for 18 years, this place serve the best coffee in SLO. The food is great. The service is amazing, I felt at home.
We are very excited to have Twenty South in the public market. I've stopped in a few times on the weekend to get Matcha, and Americano is usually to go, but this time, we stayed for the food and just know we will be back! Such a small yet nightly menu! The food was presented as amazing and tasted as good as it looked—very high-quality flavors. I was very impressed! They also have cocktails, but we have yet to try them. The atmosphere here is great, and the staff really knows what they are doing.
This place is next level! We stopped here for breakfast during our toad trip, and it exceeded our expectations big time. The food was super fresh and delicious. The breakfast potatoes and eggs were a highlight. Chef Steve took the time to talk to us and was super friendly. We will definitely be back!
