    This is a great cafe. Located close to the center of town, amongst many other shops and restaurants. It can be busy - an attestation to the great coffee, food, bread, and pastries here. Despite the thick crowd, the friendly and helpful staff keep the line moving along. There's a fair amount of comfortable seating and tables. The coffee shop is charmingly decorated with warm wood tones and artwork from a local artist (shout-out to Pavolv Art Gallery). I wasn't able to participate, but it appears that they make fresh bread here and even host bread-making workshops. They also have Whale Bird kombucha on tap and you can purchase a growler too! I was grateful to find a welcoming spot to grab high-quality coffee and savory and sweet breakfast options while visiting! Will definitely be back if/when I visit again.

    Mason was our barista, and he was absolutely amazing! super friendly, welcoming, and attentive! The whole place has such a nice, chill, laid-back atmosphere, which makes it perfect for relaxing and enjoying your drink. I also really appreciated that they have a wheelchair-accessible ramp. There are no TVs, which honestly adds to the peaceful vibe and makes it feel like a place where you can just slow down, enjoy your coffee, and be present. We ordered a lemonade and a vanilla latte, and both were amazing! The vanilla latte was especially delicious. Great drinks, great service, and such a relaxing atmosphere. We really enjoyed our experience and would definitely come back!

    Ian greeted me with the warmest welcome. He was fabulous at explaining the menu and helping me decide what to order. I ended up getting a hot maple cinnamon latte with oat milk. They roast all their own coffee, making for some delicious espresso. The interior of the coffee shop has plenty of seating for working or chatting. The latte was the perfect temperature but a bit mild in flavor.

    Iced latte with oat milk.
    Adriana M.

    Dropped into this cute coffee shop while we were visiting Solvang. Very modern and charming vibe. Their menu is pretty small, but I got an iced latte made with oat milk. The coffee itself was very bold, aromatic, and just the right amount of toasted and nutty with the addition of the oat milk. Service was friendly and the ambiance is welcoming. It was the perfect way to top off the brunch we had just had. Hubby got their iced Americano and he was not as impressed. I think had he ordered a latte or a nitro cold brew it would have been better. Overall I would definitely visit again.

    Visiting from San Jose and grabbing morning coffee is great here. The cinnamon roll was my favorite item there- sooo big and the cream cheese is divine (plus tip... heat it up it's life changing).

    Classic sweetener oat milk latte
    Kimberly R.

    Came here on their first opening day years ago and knew this place was the next best thing. Visited again and tried their oat milk latte. Refreshing, not too sweet with their classic sweetener and just all around well rounded cup of iced coffee. Great place to relax and study or hang with a friend. Service was friendly, stylish! And offered some knowledge on their menu which is always appreciated.

    iced americano, iced latte with velhrona ganache
    Sophie T.

    i usually come here when i'm looking for coffee in solvang! it's solid with great service. the owner seems to be a one man army a lot of the time, which i respect a lot! the space itself is super cute and i'd do work here if i needed to. the most recent time i went, i got the velhrona ganache iced latte with oat milk and it was... just okay sadly. i looked through reviews and people are pretty mixed on its flavoring- to me, it tasted like hershey's cocoa powder and nothing more. it was interesting that i was getting little clumps of cocoa powder in my drink? i also couldn't really taste the espresso in the drink at all. perhaps it just wasn't for me.. also not sure if things have changed, because i remember asking if there are more shots with size increases. i was told there were not, so i got the smallest size available for iced drinks. if i came again, i'd just play it safe with an iced americano or iced vanilla latte or something :p

    Stopped here while on a girls trip to Paso Robles. I had always seen it on my trips to Solvang so I am glad I was finally able to try it. It's a cute little shop. They do have limited seating as well as limited parking spots in the parking lot they share with the other businesses. I think we got there and went at a good time since there was only 1 person ahead of us to order. I ended up getting their Turmeric Latte and one of their scones. Like how they have vegan/gluten free pastries. I wish they had a little bit more variety of things but what they had worked for me. That turmeric latte was the best I have had. It's not sweet so do recommend adding your own preference of sweetener. I was able to taste the turmeric which I feel other places I have had one, I would always question if they added turmeric. The scone was really good and flavorful. I was sharing it with someone so I didn't eat a lot of it. Overall, cute little place. Would come back. Especially for that Turmeric Latte.

    So happy we stopped in on our way to Paso Robles . Really enjoyed my latte / cinnamon roll was huge! Also, service was friendly . It's a cute spot with parking on the back. It was busy but line moved fast ! I would def return.

    Great tasting coffee and treats Roasted in small batches The staff handled the busy crowds with ease and worked seamlessly, steadily, and efficiently. My wife enjoyed the scone and other treat that looked like a little pie. There is a small assortment of seats inside and a shared bathroom around the corner. Clean space and relaxed vibe

    Cinnamon Roll
    Shiela T.

    I'd first heard of The Good Seed through an influencer on instagram. Blame my algorithm for constantly presenting random videos showcasing popular cafes (well, maybe because I AM always in search of good cafes). We happened to be planning a short road trip and Solvang was one of our stops. The Cinnamon roll came highly recommended and I was lucky to have the very last 2 rolls sold that day. "Wow! I would say that's beyond lucky... that's what they say is 'meant to be'." Ian, our cashier, had just stepped away from the register as I had come up to the counter. I watched for a few mins, waiting patiently to place my order, as he displayed a master class in multitasking. My attention in those few minutes were hyper centralized on Ian's hands as he swiftly placed numerous amounts of cups to their order receipts and filled each one with its desired ingredients. He moved so fast my eyes couldn't keep up. By the time he'd returned to the register to formally greet me - I was so impressed - not a hair out of place and not a change in his mood. His attitude ... consistent. Undisturbed. Composed. His smile ... refreshing. It's what service is supposed to be. "10 out of 10" I didn't get to order any coffee unfortunately; However the cinnamon roll did not disappoint. It was as delightful as I'd expected with great service as the cherry-on-top. Thumbs up on the Good Seed.

    Good beans indeed. If you're not sure what to get, try a FLAT WHITE breve (they use Clover half and half) rich and wholesome. $6 tiny but mighty.

    Sourdough bread with butter
    Francie M.

    This place was packed as the only true coffee shop in town (besides the coffee offered by bakeries but save those for the pastries). But the wait was worth it! I ordered a cortado which if you select "for here" comes in the most gorgeous hand made ceramic cup, as well as a slice of their homemade sourdough bread. The bread can either contain walnuts or not, and come with butter and jam or just butter. It was hearty without being tooth-endangering and the perfect savory complement to soak up the coffee. If you didn't sugar yourself out on the other danish bakeries they also had a delicious and non-danish selection of pastries available. Logistics: - Indoor and outdoor seating - Limited street parking in front but several free public lots nearby - Gluten free sourdough bread and pastries available

Since the…read morearea is known for its Danish bakeries, I couldn't leave without bringing home some cookies. I still remember buying butter cookies at the Copenhagen airport, and I've been craving that same style ever since, especially because there aren't many places near me in my area that sell them freshly made. I randomly came across Danish Village Bakery and found a tub of assorted cookies for around $20. The lady working inside helped me right away and answered my questions about which items were the most popular and whether the cookies were freshly made. She was friendly and made the visit quick and easy. You can buy Danish cookies at regular grocery stores, but these tasted completely different. They were softer, fresher, and had that rich, buttery flavor that packaged cookies are usually missing. They were even better than the airport cookies I remembered! The bakery itself had a cute, homey, old-fashioned atmosphere, and there was plenty of free parking nearby. I'm really glad I stopped in because the cookies ended up being one of my favorite treats from the trip. I would definitely return for another tub the next time I'm in town.

Maybe the bakers were just having an off day, but unfortunately, almost everything we ordered was a miss--and the service didn't help. When I was looking for assistance, the employees were entirely unhelpful and seemed like they couldn't care less. One of them was completely glued to their phone with their back turned toward the lobby, while the other was just standing there picking their fingernails. It felt like we were an inconvenience just by being there. As for the food, here is the breakdown: Cinnamon Roll Bowl ($10.00): For ten bucks, I expected something spectacular. Instead, it was completely underwhelming--mostly just dense dough and not nearly enough flavor or moisture. Snickerdoodle Cookie ($7.50): A massive disappointment for the price. It lacked that signature tangy, cinnamon-sugar punch. If you handed this to me blindly, I would never guess it was supposed to be a snickerdoodle. Savory Meat Pastry: This was the worst of the bunch. It was so incredibly dry that we took exactly one bite and had to throw the rest in the trash. Ham & Cheese Croissant: This tasted bizarrely off. Instead of a savory ham flavor, it tasted like it was stuffed with old, stale turkey. Æbleskiver Balls: These are supposed to be light and fluffy, but they were completely dried out and tough. Paying premium prices for bakery items is fine if the quality matches, but between the awful service and food that tasted like it had been sitting out for days, I won't be back. Lesson learned always check the yelp reviews before trying something new.

I ordered all-new flavors for myself, including lavender honey, pistachio raspberry, strawberry rosé, blueberry lemon, maple bacon, and s'mores. At home, we had a tasting fest, and strangely, much to my chagrin, the s'mores were the LEAST favored! They were described as dry and not tasting "s'morey," and the kids didn't like the "burned marshmallows." So, the s'mores, of which I bought four, sat relatively uneaten save for some nibbles on the edges here and there. The next least favorite was the maple bacon, which also went uneaten. Now, at over $4 for a special donut ($4.02), that caught my attention, but we live and learn. The other flavors were delicious and quite different! They were actually quite fresh and soft compared to the s'mores. We took our time, and even after about two or three days, they were still good. I think that my faves were the blueberry lemon, the pistachio, and the strawberry rosé. The lavender honey was also quite good, too, now that I think about it, so I guess my favorites were all the ones other than the s'mores and maple bacon. In any case, always good to try new things, and with the special flavors here, you will have a chance to do that.
