I recently visited their new location in Aptos and they didn't disappoint. Seriously some of the best coffee in Santa Cruz. Staff is always friendly, coffee is always good, and the environment is excellent.
So far I've just had the coffee and a banana bread and they were both great. I can also say that the vibe here is wonderful, nice spacious area with indoor and outdoor seating, and best of all they have two restrooms for those days when we drink too much coffee :)
Delicious coffee! My kiddos love the kid's drink options too - they top them off with marshmallows and/or whipped cream. 🤤 The staff is usually down to earth and chill. Highly recommend!
Coffee was mid at best , in my opinion. Ordered a mocha and the drink had a sour after taste. Staff was okay.
Coffee was great but pistachio tea cake was stale. They were nice enough to refund and gave us complimentary pinwheel!
Really cute place!
Loved the baristas so welcoming the girl at the front was so amazing recommended a great option was very knowledgeable and gave me a great coffee recommendation. The avocado toast was also delicious.
Great coffee and staff. Great bathrooms. They are big, clean, and all genders.
Aptos Go-to Spot For Friendly Staff, Hot Coffee & Delish Avocado 🥑 Toast & Breakfast Burritos 🌯 Are A Fan Favorite In Our Family. This time We got A ☕️ Cup Of ‘The Answer’& A couple of Ib bags to take home to enjoy. 💣 Baristas. Thx 4 Gr8 Service. Gr8 location next to the downtown Aptos tracks & Old Bayview Hotel. Inside decor is bright & welcoming. Open space tables to gather with friends or use WiFi. Love the new bag design & the murals & artwork in all locations is purrrfect. So cute.
The service is always absolutely impeccable. I wish I can have such friendly service at my own business. Amazing coffee! And I'm so happy this location now has food items available. Avocado toast and burritos are aaaamazing!!!
Open, spacious locally owned cafe. Lots of hot beverage options. Kid portions available (we loved the marshmallows, cinnamon and whipped cream in the kid hot chocolate.) Limited but tasty food including avocado toast, cold chai oats, and baked goods with vegan options.
Tasty coffee, good space for getting work done and people watching. Busy in the morning.
Visited twice last weekend. Tried the drip(Dr. Congo) - solid roast. Bought a bag to try as a pourover. Given the weather I thought it'd be good as a espresso tonic, so I tried to order one the second time. I was confidently handed mystery drip with a shot of mystery espresso poured in, and a 'would you like cream with that?'... my dude, that's a redeye, not an espresso tonic. I left with the drink anyways because the server seemed genuinely clueless as to what an espresso tonic was, and since I was curious as to how the redeye would taste. Juicy mouthfeel, extremely bitter and roasty, with strong acidity that hits you before leaving a nasty bitter aftertaste and your mouth and throat feeling highly astringent. 10/10 would recommend if you need something to keep you awake. Overall mixed feelings about that experience, but the customer service was great, and I'm enjoying the bag of Dr. Congo.
One of the best Chai Lattes I have ever had. Great vibes and the staff is fun to have a chat with. What coffee shops should be.
The coffee was Luke warm and weak, and place was loud for your morning joe.
You guys are doing really well keep up the good job
Great coffee and the BEST gluten free scone ever!
Best cappuccinos in the area. This location has a lovely outdoor seating area, you can see the ocean in the distance. All the cat and clouds are great though. Their beans are nice too.
I used to love this coffee (actually still do) but the pricing has gotten so ridiculous. $1.50 for alternate milk (too bad if lactose intolerant). I paid $8.23 for a coffee before tip. Tax for take out, tax for benefits, and $1.50 for oat milk. My family and I will be finding a new coffee hang out. The workers are wonderful though, very friendly.
Good coffee. They use good ingredients and ask what you’d like without assuming 💛
