Food options include acai and pastries, they also have some pressed juices and smoothies. They use a combination on monin, Torani, and housemate syrups. Pleasant customer service Plenty of parking in a grocery store lot. No public restroom! Very limited barstool seating. They do have wifi.

Upon walking in, the barista was friendly and open to answering any and all questions. Ambiance was also great and fit the name of the cafe and its vibes. For the drinks, we got an iced toffee latte and the kepania, which is their version of a spanish latte. I liked the toffee latte more cause it had bits of toffee in it but I also liked the spanish latte as it tasted lighter than the toffee latte. It gave the drinks more of a balance when I started taking sips from both of them. I do really like how the top layer of the lattes were blue, which gives off a great aesthetic. The only downside for me was that the toffee latte lost a good amount of its flavor after some of the ice melted-- some cafes still have a strong coffee taste even after the ice melts & that's usually what I like as far as preference. As for the sunbliss blend smoothie, it definitely had that taste of the 100% real fruit in it and was a refreshing drink to sip on when I walked at the beach. It's a plus for this cafe for having plenty of options between drinks and bites!

I just wanted to sit, sip & chill with my crossword puzzle for a bit & maybe watch the world go by. Parking at the rear, free. The restrooms are independent of the shop by the parking lot, got the key from the barista. My latte was average, lacked depth but the ambiance & chill vibes was really nice. A medium size at $8.14, no extra charge for the substitution, a plus. Good experience.

This is my husband's review and I am posting the same:…read more We were hopeful as we were cruising through Newport for some delicious coffee and a treat. Food: cookies were great, a little high priced but to be expected for a gourmet cookie Newport. Service: the cashier didn't know any answers for any of our very simple menu questions. Her response was "I don't know". Cashier failed to tell they were out of two of their primary ingredients until we tried to order drinks - out of stock of coconut for their featured yacht latte, and out of stock of vanilla, which I feel a coffee shop should never be out of stock of. The barista making drinks made them quickly. Ambience: nice and quaint and perfect for Newport. We paid $38 for two med size drinks and three cookies. Cold brew was not very good. The girl suggested to me that the mocha would be bitter, so I shouldn't order it half sweet when in fact, I ordered it normal based on her suggestion and it was very sweet. I would not recommend this coffee shop. There are others in close proximity that might be better.

I had a break in my workweek so I hopped a ride to the Island to explore- walked down Marine and then headed here for solo lunch- I'm so glad I did! When you only have a 3 hour window on your work trip, you want to make it count ;) The ceviche and spicy margarita were fantastic (see pic) - I sat outside and then walked down the block to the ferry (for $4 you can ride across the inlet to the pier and back in just a few minutes) Todos Santos really made my week!

Nice looking spot with plenty of outdoor seating. All the staff we interacted with were very friendly. So why just 3 stars? The food was just eh. If I had more hours in California I would have made up for the lackluster food by making a trip to HB's Tacos Los Cholos. I had the recommended Enchiladas Suizas. When my plate came out I knew immediately it would be just ok. The enchiladas didn't even look saucy. The refried beans looked (and tasted) like canned beans. The rice was very boring. The tinga chicken, somehow, was dry. My wife had the tostada salad. It was like $26 because of the $10 add on of steak. $26 for the most gringo thing on the menu. Best part of it was the steak, the rest will be repressed from my memory. A friend had the taco trio. $19 for 3 tacos and no sides. That's pretty steep. He didn't even finish the 3 tacos. He had the short rib, al pastor and carnitas. None of them looked very good. I had a pinch of his short rib meat. It tasted like grandma's Sunday pot roast. And just like the tinga chicken it was also dry. My wife's strawberry marg was quite good. The beer menu was very basic. Gotta step it up. When the free chips and salsa, and add on steak are the highlights of the dinner you know that the place needs help.

The service here was quick and concise, the baristas were friendly and helpful with ordering and were exactly what you should expect from a craft coffee shop. There wasn't anything overtly special about the mocha that I ordered. It was a bit chocolate heavy and the coffee flavor didn't push through much at all, but every place does it a bit different. It wasn't bad by any means! We didn't try any food or pastries, but the offerings all looked pretty good. I'd definitely recommend checking them out if you want a good coffee joint in the area.

I expected a sugar overload with random coffee pairings but the thoughtfulness behind the flight is appreciated. The drinks were different types of espresso to milk ratios with little to no sweetness to balance out each flavor of knock knock!

The Experience: * Atmosphere: The place is really cute and has nice outdoor seating. * Service: The workers are friendly, which makes for a pleasant visit. * The Food: To be honest, the food didn't blow me away. The shop looks nicer than the food actually tastes. * Value & Logistics: The prices are just okay, and the parking can be a bit tight. Final Verdict: Three stars isn't bad--it just means this is an "average Joe" spot. It's a place I'd still come to occasionally, but it isn't at the top of my list for a standout meal.
