SLO Roasted Coffee - Central Coast Coffee Roasting Company, Inc.

Crema's Take

SLO Roasted's owners Paul and Julie have built something genuinely rare: a specialty roastery where the coffee is as thoughtfully sourced as the hospitality is genuine, with regulars raving about conversations that rival the quality of their espresso. Their hands-on approach shows in everything from the roasting demonstrations they host to the care their staff takes with each cup, whether you're grabbing a quick drink from their adorable espresso cart or settling in for a pour over. This is the kind of place where a stranger on a bike ride from SF to SD gets a free drink and a sincere human interaction—proof that great coffee shops are built on character, not just technique.

What to expect

Espresso-focused, with a pour-over program. A slow-sit spot, quick-grab.

Great coffee and friendly service with attention to detail in bean sourcing. Enjoyed a roasting demonstration at their open house alone gaide coffee cookie pairings, woods sponsorship, and sale deals on all coffee. Love having this amazing spot right here in Los Osos!

I stopped by this place to pick up a bit of coffee during my bike ride from SF to SD. The fellow working here was SO NICE when we started chatting. He appreciated my journey so much that he threw in some coffee tastings and some extra beans to my purchase. The coffee is…
