And gluten free options. Hubs had the medium roast coffee and liked it. I had the Hawaiian latte, it was yummy! Fast service.. inside and outside seating. Definitely will be back!

So glad this spot was close to our campsite. It ended up being the perfect little morning stop. I…read moregrabbed a hot matcha latte and it was just right, not overly sweet but still smooth and comforting. You could actually taste the matcha without it being drowned out, which I appreciate. The blueberry muffin was honestly the standout for me. It was soft, slightly crumbly on top, and tasted fresh not dry at all. It had that homemade feel especially since it was actual fresh blueberries inside. It tasted like something you'd grab from a local bakery rather than a typical coffee shop pastry. Paired with the matcha, it was a really simple but satisfying combo.

I am a coffee snob and have my own espresso machine at home but love visiting new coffee shops and Tribe Coffee did not disappoint. Was given recommendations by the staff, based on what i usually drink and tried something new and different and I truly enjoyed it. Skip the chain coffee shops and come support this very unique coffeehouse. Will be back! In this visit we had a kids hot chocolate, Honey Rose Latte and Velvet Virtue.

Pistachio Rose Latte: The floral notes of the rose and nuttiness of the pistachio are well-balanced…read moreagainst each other. Not too floral and not too nutty. Somehow they really do blend together. Now one would expect the drink to be more green or pink somehow but it's pretty natural, which makes sense with the overall vibe of the place. No artificial colorings or flavorings here. Ham & cheese: The pastries seem to rotate so there isn't a set food menu. They had an assortment of pastries available and my preference leans more savory so a toasted ham and cheese was perfect for me for lunch. Service was friendly and informative - they have a pretty extensive menu but the staff know the menu and can offer recommendations. The ambiance is really what would deter me from coming back. Personally, it's just not my vibe, feels a little bit claustrophobic like I'm in a old beachside cottage or mini barn. The floors are worn and tired and pained this jarring shade of teal. The plate my ham and cheese was served on was a similar shade. Blue is not a color that triggers appetite traditionally so I'm curious as to why this choice was made. If I were to come back I'd probably either sit outside or take my drink to go. Really a bummer because the latte was so good. But again, just personal preference.

Atmosphere: From the outside, it looks like a tiny hole in the wall, but once you step foot onto the patio, you'd realize you've been transformed into this adorable, tranquility space. They have both open air patio and fully cover patio that's perfect even when the weather outside is a little chili. There are even toys and kids book for the little ones in their cover patio. 1 star Customer service: Jaimie, the owner, is one of the most personal and interesting person you'd ever meet. The very first week that I started coming here consistently, I was so surprised when I CALLED, not even ordering in person, to order my usual Dolomitti for the 3rd time in a row, she immediately recognized my voice on the phone and knew my usual preference of coffee ice cubes in my drinks. I soon became the "Dolomitti lady" lol. It still amazes me how she can remember that given all the customers she gets each day. 1 star Quality of coffee/drinks/food: One of the reasons I can't help but keep coming back to Perfetto is the wide range of food and pastry goods that they have to offer. I try not to drink coffee first thing in the morning, knowing it would turn into a very effective laxative. It's definitely a huge bonus that not only does Perfetto offer plenty of sandwiches/paninis/salad options, but they're one of the best I have had. My go to every time is the Tuscany panini. They use sourdough bread from Grover Beach Sourdough, which cannot get better than that. The bread is perfectly pressed and toasted with the perfect crunch and cheese pull. Besides, it's a given that I love the coffee here to keep coming back and ordering the same thing. 2 stars! I don't think I've ever gotten a hot drinks from here, so I can't personally tell if they do latte art or not. However, when the drinks and the food are too good, I could care less about the latte art and keep coming back here at least once or twice a week. 1 star If you're in the area or just passing by, I highly recommend checking out this place. Plus it's conveniently located just right off of 101. So no reason not to. I just wish they stay open later and all 7 days a week! This is the breakdown of my rating for coffee shops: Quality of coffee/drinks/food: up to 2 stars Consistently offer latte art: 1 Star Atmosphere: 1 Star Customer service: 1 Star

Breakfast Burrito: It's not your typical breakfast burrito. Pressed flat, it's more like a panini…read morein that way but that aspect of it allows the flavors to really blend together. The bacon is cooked perfectly, not too hard, not too soft. The chipotle crema adds some sauciness as well. I'm big on sauce and I'm usually dousing my breakfast burritos in sauce but this one didn't need it. Hojicha: It's hard enough finding a decent matcha in the area (especially coming from the OC) let alone a hojicha. Whoever whisked me the hojicha made me a fresh batch and it really made all the difference. Their hojicha comes unsweetened instead of pre-sweetened so that's already a plus in my book so I could really taste the roasted-ness (in comparison to a matcha, for example). Wasn't too watered down by the milk - the barista who made this one didn't put too much milk in my drink. Matcha: I would pass on this but it could be how it was made. I had the matcha on a different day so it wasn't the same barista. I chose to do this one unsweetened as well. The milk to tea ratio was a bit off, the amount of milk overwhelmed the matcha and the light green color of my matcha made it obvious. I would not order this again. The service is quick and friendly, the staff knows their menu inside and out and are able to make recommendations if you're unsure about what to get. I've been here on two different occasions. The first time it was more of a quiet day. There aren't enough outlets so I wish there were just more of those. The second time was on a busier Saturday. There wasn't enough room to walk around the most of the people didn't seem to have enough spatial awareness to allow others to go around them. I'd go on a quieter day if you want to be able to enjoy the space.

The location is super cute, warm, and inviting from the moment you walk in. This was our first ever visit, and their website did a great job clearly explaining how everything works. We made a reservation, paid $16 each for a 50 minute visit, and it was absolutely worth it. Kayla, who was working the front desk, was friendly, helpful, and welcoming, which made the experience even better. We started in the kitten room, and the time flew by so fast that we never even made it to the adult cat area. The kittens were incredibly playful, social, and engaged, and it was very clear they are being well cared for. If you love cats, enjoy good and inexpensive coffee drinks, and want to support a local business with a great mission, I highly recommend checking this place out. It was such a fun and memorable experience for my daughter and me, and we will absolutely be back.

My experience was a little disappointing, which is not something I usually write about because I…read moreprefer to leave reviews for places I love. I placed a very simple order and it was made incorrectly-twice. Mistakes happen, and I truly understand that. The second time, though, is usually where a business has the opportunity to turn things around and leave a great impression. Unfortunately, that didn't happen here. The overall vibe made me feel uncomfortable going back a third time to try to get it fixed. For a $7 item from a straightforward menu, I would expect it to be correct by the second attempt. That said, I don't think this reflects bad intentions-just a moment where things didn't come together the way they should have. I'm sharing this not to be harsh, but in hopes it's helpful for both the business and future customers. I really do want to support local spots, and I hope this place improves because it has potential.
