I’m not a coffee connoisseur, and I didn’t read the bad reviews, but I stopped by because my friend and I were in the area. So, there’s that.
I ordered an iced Fogbreaker Latte; the friendly cashier said it was a vanilla latte with honey and cinnamon. It was really good! My friend ordered a pumpkin spice latte, which she said she liked.
The surrounding area was super cute and there were tables and other places to sit in the back of the coffee shop. There’s also plenty of parking and lots of places to explore. I liked how close it is to the beach, which is where we went to enjoy our coffee :)

Very nice staff. Cappuccino too hot. Not particularly tasty.

The Latte with almond milk was so delicious! Quiet and relaxing place to enjoy your morning coffee.

Probably the best coffee in Carmel (emphasis on "in Carmel"). If you are a bay area transplant and looking for a Blue Bottle alternative, try Acme in Seaside or Captain + Stoker in Monterey. That's where real coffee connoisseurs seem to flock. (I'm not a coffee expert.) One interesting factoid I found is the roasting facility is indeed in Carmel Valley but they have no storefront in the valley. Surprisingly, another local coffee shop is pretty much next door in the same shopping complex in the valley and they don't get the beans from this roastery. It would be literally few steps. Instead, they get it shipped from a roastery somewhere else. Speaking of fierce competition! In such a homely little rural town too! I wonder if this company used to have a coffee shop at the same spot where the other coffee shop is now operating. 🤔 They don't get much business as there is no tourist traffic in the valley. The owners of this roastery seemed like an enterprising kind of couple so I'm guessing they felt the valley had no real market. After all, it's likely that most of Carmel residents have a top of the line Breville (or even a Simonelli) at home. The real business comes from tourists.

Very nice it was open on Thanksgiving day. Enjoyed my latte, but my husband thought his tasted "burnt ". They also sell their coffee beans! The coffee cake was pretty moist and fresh baked.

Slow service. Terrible coffee taste. Got ghirardelli chocolate mocha. Didn't even taste chocolate. Bitter burn coffee flavor

We stopped very quickly for two lattes. This was during the Covid-19 situation, so it was order at the front and wait. The drinks turned out good and the service was quick and friendly. Prices are just the standard rip off rate but that is what you get anywhere you go. Overall, it was a nice change to the chains out there and worth a visit.
