Waypoint
411 Dyer Road Suite 177A, Pacific Grove, CA
Crema's Take
“Waypoint is a campus gem that's earned its perfect rating through genuinely creative seasonal drinks that rotate monthly—think beyond the usual espresso menu to inventive creations like their mixed berry smoothie with vanilla protein. The baristas here actually care about their craft (Chelsea's cappuccinos are apparently legendary), and they've thoughtfully designed the space with tables for lingering, making it equally perfect for a quick chat with friends or settling in with your laptop for a few hours.”

We are so lucky to have this gem on campus. All the workers are wonderful. They make really fun and creative gourmet drinks that rotate each month or season. There are tables to work at. I don't know what I would do without this place on base.
The barista Chelsea (the short one) made an excellent cappuccino! 10 out of 10 would recommend and revisit!
Fantastic addition at NPS! Tried a cold brew coffee and a peanut butter protein smoothies and both were delicious. Staff are very friendly, just a slight knock on the amount of time it took to get my drinks despite a slow morning. Great rewards program too.
I popped into Waypoint Café for the second time since it opened this month, and I’m already hooked. I ordered the mixed berry smoothie on ice with vanilla protein, and it was ¡Delicioso! (So good it has me typing my feelings in another language 🙃)—bright, flavorful, and just the pick-me-up I needed. The space feels modern yet cozy, and since it’s tucked inside the Naval Postgraduate School, it has this little “hidden gem” vibe that makes it even more special. It’s quickly becoming my go-to spot when I want something delicious without the fuss. Top notch customer service and seating area available. CuppaTash sip: Smooth, energizing, and cool as a sea breeze—this blend goes down easy. ☕️✨
