Castle Rock Cafe & Mercantile

First time stopping by and tried their pour over coffee. I was a little disappointed. Seemed a little bitter to me and for the first time ever, I would say they over filled it. I feel like they grabbed the cup, put the top on it, grabbed a funnel, and poured the coffee through the little drinking hole all the way to the top. Spilt coffee on my pants and car just trying to drink it. Everything said I would try this place again and probably will next time I pass by

I’m sad I don’t live here because I would come to this cafe every day! My latte was delicious as was the strawberry almond croissant. Staff was kind and helpful. Will stop by if I’m ever in town again!

Cute little spot. Customer service was great. The coffee was good, very smooth.

Great service and great drinks. It is a cute place where you can also buy pastries and potted plants.

What's with the coffee situation on the Monty Peninsula? These guys seem to be the only ones who know how to do a proper flat white. I drive out of my way to get mine there! Impressed with Acme Coffee they serve. Also very cheerful baristas and unpretentious vibe. I wish I'd gone there this morning instead of the two different coffee companies that I tried today...

I stopped here when I saw the BEST COFFEE sign out front and of course had to investigate this claim (spoiler alert: it’s accurate). Go to Castle Rock Cafe, grab a vegan oatmeal apricot bliss ball to go with your coffee, and try the hemp hand sanitizer on your way out. It was all divine. The ladies working were incredibly sweet as well. Thank you!

This is such a special little coffee shop. Perfect location right off of the highway for travelers or people on their way to work. Delicious ACME coffee, Paris Bakery treats, Sweet Earth burritos and a wide array of local art, sweets and wares. Lovely ambiance, great place for meetings, dates or to do some quiet work. The staff is always friendly and engaging and more than happy to accommodate if you have special needs. Highly recommend, I am a frequent customer!

Great service and coffee

One of my favorite places in Monterey county. The location, staff, energy of the place, and coffee are just wonderful. Love the quiche and enjoy looking at all the little items they have for sale. It is my weekend treat to stop by and enjoy their lates.

I was very impressed by the quality of the poinsettia plants I purchased. They were full and beautiful, the shop was so quaint and lovely. If you sell them next year, I will go be back. Merry Christmas and a better New Year🙏🙏🙏🎄🎄🎇🎆
