Cajé Coffee - Arlington St

From all the reviews, this place was recommended because of its courtyard setting! I am glad to have taken that advice. The cafe is beautiful. You can sit wherever you like & order on the counter, where they call your name. The coffee here is amazing! They do a great job at making coffee extraordinary. We got Yemen & Maui. The flavor combinations are well thought of, plus they get 10/10 for presentation. As for food, we got 2 avacado toast. They were large in size, if you aren’t super hungry it is a shareable size. I would give the toast a 2.5/5. It was cold mashed avacado, cold tomatoes, drizzled with balsamic vinger. Avacado toasts can be made much more exciting. This place still deserves a 5/5 for excellent coffee & vibes & good service.

The matcha green tea latte was excellent. It had a very smooth, fresh, and organic taste that really stood out from other places. The flavor was rich but not overpowering or overly sweet—just very clean and tasteful. You can tell they use quality ingredients. Definitely a great choice if you enjoy a good matcha

super cute and trendy spot! bagels were super great (highly recommend caprese bagel) and drinks were fun and tasty! i got the rosemary thai tea and my friend got a chai latte. chai was a little mellow but the rosemary thai tea was excellent

The best coffee we have had in a while! Great options & variety to choose from. We loved pretty much everything we got. Place is beautiful & well decorated. Food was amazing & my favorite coffee was burn out! Parking is little tough.

Caja Café is such a gem in Santa Barbara! The vibes are warm, relaxed, and welcoming from the moment you walk in. The food and drinks taste great—fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The staff is incredibly friendly too; they make you feel right at home and always greet you with a smile. Whether you’re stopping by to study, meet friends, or just enjoy a good cup of coffee, Caja Café is the perfect spot. Highly recommend!
