Inside a hotel/timeshare but seems to be independent. Cakes etc looked nice but I didn't try, enjoyed my daily Americano here

Really cute place! The outside area is great — could use some umbrellas for shade, though. The pastries were good. I’d love it if y’all could add tea options (tea lattes, chai, iced tea, etc.) for the non-coffee drinkers. Would definitely return if so!

I really liked the vibe here, but we also caught it at a quiet point of the year and time of day so it might be different depending on when you visit. Coffee was fantastic (I knew it would be with those names), service was excellent, and next time we’ll be back to try the baked goods!

Great coffee and even better coffee cake. The small size is a 16 oz and the iced version I got came with two shots. Great balance of ice, coffee and chocolate syrup.

Fantastic place!! Just opened a few days ago. Wonderful service, great coffee&pastries, and a very chill relaxing place to sip some coffee while gazing into the ocean.

I went and sat in the place, first of all the place was wonderful, the barista recommended me the special pumpkin coffee, it's the best I've ever tasted

pastries looked great but we didn’t try them, we got iced lattes. they were amazing! my only only complaint is if you like your coffee on the sweet side or if you aren’t someone who doesn’t like very unsweetened coffee, i’d get more syrup added into your latte. the three of us got real maple, pumpkin, and SF vanilla flavors and all lattes were lacking sweetness and the pumpkin one tasted completely unsweetened. they have lots of milk and syrup options and we didn’t mind the lack of sweetness in the lattes but wanted to warn others!
