I got the Choccy cold brew but switched the cold foam to strawberry and it's delicious -food came not too long after. The pulled pork grilled cheese and garlic fries were amazing! My husband got a salad and loved it. Only problem was they gave tomatoes when he requested for them to be removed but he was ok with moving them out. We also got a potato appetizer with cheese. I can't remember the name of it but it was all SO good. -display window at the register with pastries looked amazing! -they had a little shop with some really neat things.

If you're anything like me, I've been through Castroville and into Hondo, and in both towns I've…read morehad the same thought: "This town needs a good coffee shop". Hondo...forget it. But if you're in or around Castroville - I'd tell you to go to Octane Coffee. Found them on Yelp this morning. They are tough to find. As a matter of fact, when I pulled up to their current location I literally said aloud in my car..."Is this a joke? - this is a winery." But after a short investigation, I did indeed find good coffee. I spent about an hour hanging out with the owner and his mother. We were the only ones in the place. They were both incredibly friendly. The Hazelnut latte I ordered was just hot enough, had four shots in it, and was very good. Plus - they had wifi :) I even bought a bag of coffee the owner recommended. I was sorry to hear the story about their current location, though. Seems they used to be "downtown Castroville", but the landlord kept raising their rent, and he could only roast his coffee beans during certain times, etc. Sad when local business are pushed out for almighty dollar.... Anyway - They moved to this current location, which, I'll be honest, is not the most convenient - but it gives the owner a chance to do his deal! Wishing them all the best! Will go back if I'm in the area...

It was a pleasant surprise to have brunch here as I thought it was mainly a cafe. There's plenty of parking and seating inside along with great window views and sunlight. A nice place to meet with friends and a quiet environment. The servers were friendly and the food took a bit of time to arrive but I was not in a hurry. Keep this in mind as you order because it's not the type of quick cafe eats. Although we had a group of 9, it did take a while to get our food served despite most of the meals being sandwiches. However, the food was excellent and the pricing was good as well and average for the area. Everyone was impressed with their meal.

The torta was delicious too. Cut in half. I could only eat half after the delicious vegetarian lentil soup and trying the croissant and other pastry. The next day I got the torta with chorizo. Equally delicious. Also got a blueberry bear claw- amazing. I tried the orang blossom pastry/bread too. They also have juices. I got the beet the first day. Perfetto! Will definitely return here.
