I haven’t had this good of a mocha since I left Seattle
The best coffee in campus area. Their bagels and coffee so delicious! Really enjoyed my time there
I have posted about the Santa Barbara location, however, the first location I ever tried was in Isla Vista. This shop is a local startup originally in the early 2000s. The vibes and quality of product, very much translates that cultivation by those truly passionate about delicious coffee drinks. I got the plain hot latte with almond mylk as always, steamed perfectly such a light an sweet texture of foam. The flavor is really the star.. you can really taste the quality and full body of the espresso (and coffee which i have ordered in the past) it has a richness that always makes me question if I had cinnamon or some spice added by mistake. Always a treat even in the rising! l'm making this my local coffee spot whenever in town; whether its Isla Vista, or Santa Barbara i'm officially a regular when visiting! Also staff is super sweet an I apprecialove that in the early hours of the day, really makes a nice way to begin, glad I stopped in!
Awesome açaí bowl. Solid coffee. Excellent jalapeño cheese bagels.
• P. Nutty Açai bowl:5/5 ~$13
huge and gave me the energy for a period of 6 hours of work! That’s crazy and most importantly healthy 😋😋 I was guilt free 💗
• Breakfast egg bagel: 5/5 ~$8
Cream cheese mixed with eggs in any type of bagel you like 😋
The avocado toast and Caprese bagel are delicious! But our first visit, my friend got a dirty chai and threw out the entire thing and the second day she got a coffee and did the same lol. I ordered a matcha the first day and it wasn’t anything amazing at all, was just green milk, and it’s very hard to not make a good matcha, so i just got starbucks the second day and ate the food here instead which was yummy 🥯
Terrible attitude. Breakfast bagel was served cold and had the flavor chalk, after one bite I had to just toss it. The bagel was so dry I swear it was 2 days old, the eggs tasted like they were made yesterday. A big crowd was there, so I could not hear them when the called my name. I went in to see if my order was ready. I asked and the rude person said "It is if it has your name on it!" in the most condescending tone possible. That was a complete was of $11.50.
Always great! It is sometimes busy so make sure you have time but usually they are pretty quick!
Best place in Isla Vista for coffee ☕
Obsessed with their jalapeño cheddar bagels and the honey lavender latte
Staff was really helpful in making a choice. The outdoor seating was nice.
Been here about 3 times now & just love the taste of the coffee
Coffee was amazing. I love that they make their own almond milk. The açaí menu was huge and very good. I liked the bagel too, nothing amazing but still good. The food came very quick. The only thing I did not like were the concrete tables. It gets pretty busy on Sunday mornings too.
Good coffee, exelente staff
Very very slow. I ordered an iced Americano and it took a solid 15 min for them to make it.
Got an iced matcha latte to go while visiting from out of town. Chose this place because I read all of the great reviews about their matcha lattes, so my expectations were pretty high. When I took the first sip, all I could taste was the dairy. I opted for almond milk but all it tasted like was whole milk. I couldn't even taste the matcha. Not the best experience and it was pretty pricey. I also got a bagel which was pretty small for $9. There is only street parking so just be aware of the craziness when coming while UCSB is in session.
