Decent coffee in a super fun space. Will be back for art in the future! My pups were welcome inside - always a plus.

I asked him to please remake my turmeric latte cause he put a ton of turmeric in the small size. He refused. Screw this place. Just wasted money and a tip on someone who doesn't deserve it. Wouldn't give me back my money either. Don't go here. Bad customer service. Oh and this place makes artists PAY THEM in order to perform. It's terrible to take advantage of artists that way.

Small cafe slash art venue. Plenty of original drinks and cafe classics. They also feature live music some days. The only thing we didn't like that much is that the place was kind of busy and there was only one employee managing all the cafe, which was pretty tiresome for him

Very friendly barista, cool interior, and very good coffee right by the ocean. I liked the atmosphere of this place, but when I visited, it was 50 degrees out and all doors were wide open. It was freezing inside the cafe and even with my winter jacket on, it wasn’t really enjoyable to spend time there. Too bad! Ok the bright side, they’re dog friendly and the vibe is pretty laid-back.

Very cool place for sure! I had a latte and I found a dead mosquito in it. I have no idea how they put it?! They should care about hygiene little bit more.

Even if the baristas aren't the friendliest, it's still the best coffee shop in OB.

Super nice and cozy coffee place with open mic. Lavender and rosé matcha was delicious.

Artsy laid-back joint by the OB pier. Fair prices and good coffee... A nice addition to the OB scene 👌

All around great place. Amazing space to be in. The cafe drink choices are unique and satisfying if you are looking for something more than just sugary coffee.

This is a very unique and cute coffee shop just two blocks off the busy Newport Av. The shop has many comfortable and artistic seating areas. The menu is full of exciting inventions…

Wonderful Cafe and great coffee. Definitely worth a stop. Unfortunately, we missed the live music but also had some great almond croissants!
