    Great new addition to Grover Beach. Perfect stop for drinks or pan dulce or a variety of other treats. The location has a great vibe and very welcoming. The location is both small and super popular so give yourself time to wait but it is worth it. Small indoor and outdoor seating.

    Edible image! (Extra $2)

    Tried the cajeta latte today and their pan dulce - 5 stars all around! The latte could have used just a tad more ice (I ordered it iced), and I only say this because it took a little while to get cold. Otherwise, great flavor! Their pan dulce was the best I've ever had - warmed it up for a few seconds and it was absolute perfection; soft, fluffy, even had a slight crisp on the edge. I also opted for the option of printing a photo on top of my drink (extra $2). Such a fun addition!

    Abuelita latte and mazapan latte
    Sydney H.

    Convenient location! Walking distance, close to home. All the drinks looked amazing but we ended up trying, mazapan latte, abuelita latte, iced cajeta, iced duvalin and a kids ice abuelita. All drinks were amazing. I am excited to try some of the other drinks now. The new owner helped us at the counter and she was very friendly and quick. The place was welcoming and busy. Can't wait to go back! Highly recommended

    Banana mocha latte

    Loved my iced banana mocha latte. The masala latte seems to be the local favorite. Very friendly and pretty coffee shop.

    What a nice place. As soon as I walked in they welcomed me in. I ordered a macchiato and a torta to go. I love local places like this. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The coffee taste great and the torta was on point. I will definitely be back! Great coffee, amazing service

    We love this place. We come here every morning to try their specialty drinks and have a torta. Everything here is delicious! But our favorites are the Mazapan ice latte and the Duvalin latte. My son loves the hot chocolate. The service is great the girls here are always very nice! The ambience is a chill vibe, small but cozy. We love to sit outside and we like that we can still hear the music.

    Happy!

    Lattes were delicious!!!!! We got the mazapan and duvalin. Great size, perfect amount of ice too 10/10! The mazapan was one of the best specialty lattes I've ever had.

    Nutella latte "hot"

    My wife and I visited this morning. We got the Nutella latte and the Cajeta latte. We both wanted hot. Both were warm not hot. They also didn't taste that great. The service was ok, bare minimum. The ambiance is cool but nothing else stood out. The cafe opens at 8am which is a little late if you ask me. And for it being new, it was dead inside. We were the only customers I would think they'd try a little harder to make sure we come back. We won't be back.

    I would literally WALK from LA and back to visit this amazing establishment again (if I didnt have…read moresuch a bad back I would seriously do it) My boyfriend and I stumbled on this place during our road trip and although it was a quick stop, I left feeling so happy and overly satisfied w my meal. Not only was the food amazing but so was the hospitality. They gave us a free ube latte bc they made an extra on accident and i swear it was better than the dutch bros I had down the street. At first we were skeptical about the lumpia bc of the peas in them but once you get over that you'll realize its actually REALLYYYY GOOD. they werent soggy or flavorless, it was perfect all around. I was so full but almost wanted to buy another order to eat on the road- it was that good. My boyfriend devoured the slider, but spared me a bite. Im not really a burger/sandwich person but i have to say it was so flavorful would def recommend. If i was hungrier I would have ordered one for myself. We will be visiting again someday, but in the meantime I hope people will get to find this gem and have a memorable & positive experience as my boyfriend and I did

    We are familiar with Filipino food as one of our friends from Tarzana would cook Saturday meals…read more We ordered the combo platter to taste. It consisted of Lumpia (a type of spring roll) pork (was dry but the gravy saved it) white rice and glass noodles with vegetables. My wife ordered the mango lemonade which was surprisingly good. So why did I give four stars? I found two bones in the pork. When I mentioned it to the owner she said it was from cutting meat from the bone. I do not know of this was an aberration or not. These could have easily chipped a tooth or cracked a filling. I guess being a Casualty Underwriter for 37 years is commenting.

    Excellent coffee! Delicious food and bakery! Above and beyond service! Our go to coffee shop now…read moreand my weekly fix. 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

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.

    This was my second time visiting Breezeway Coffee, and it's quickly become our go-to spot when…read morewe're in Pismo Beach. We usually stay near the pier, and this place is less than a 30-second walk, which makes it perfect for a quick morning coffee run. Both times we've been here, the coffee has been excellent. On our first visit, we got iced coffees, and they were great. They offer a wide variety of milk options, creamers, and syrups, along with the usual sugars and sugar substitutes, so you can customize your drink pretty much however you want. They also have a full menu beyond coffee, including iced tea, lattes, chai, hot cocoa, and Americanos. For food, they offer pastries, Belgian waffles, avocado toast, breakfast sandwiches, and breakfast burritos. I haven't personally tried the food yet, but everything I've seen coming out looks really good. On this most recent visit, we tried their affogatos, and they did not disappoint. We both went with vanilla, and it was exactly what you'd expect. The espresso was made fresh, and the balance between the hot espresso and cold ice cream was perfect. Seating inside is limited to a few bar stools, but if you walk just outside and around the corner, there's a breezeway seating area with comfortable chairs and a nice coastal breeze. It's a great spot to sit and relax for a bit. Overall, this is a great coffee spot in Pismo Beach. Consistently good drinks, quick service, and a convenient location. We'll definitely keep coming back.

    Perfect beach-casual breakfast spot to fuel up before a day in the sun…read more Waffles are made-to-order, with sprinkles or chocolate chips inside and out, or for a more traditional taste, covered in strawberries and Nutella. Whatever your taste, the waffles are light a fluffy inside, with the classic Belgian crisp form. The breakfast sandwiches come with an option of bacon or sausage, with a thick egg scramble and cheese on croissant, bagel or English muffin. The coffee and espresso are tasty, and they have hot cocoa for the kids. Friendly service, and nice outdoor covered dining make this spot a great choice for a cool breezy morning in Pismo. Next time I'm in town, we'll definitely come try more of the menu.
