    While visiting this summer The Bean became our favorite coffee shop. Located away from the Embarcadero crowd, it's quiet and relaxing with outdoor seating, excellent pastries, delicious sandwiches, and great coffee. If you want a good neighborhood place to sit and relax for a while, this is it.

    Quaint little coffee shop in Morrow Bay called the Nautical Bean

    Delicious coffee, delightful baristas that made a simple get-together a special occasion by making sure each of us had exactly what we wanted. I couldn't make up my mind, so "Leo" (Lou?) slowly explained what each menu item involved and was patient with others who also had questions about the different names and flavors of the hot coffee. As you can see by the picture below, they lit up the little shop with smiles. We will be back next time we are in town!

    Chai was. Ice and thick. Salmon sandwich was good. Croissant tasted good but was a little singed. Good thing about croissants is the dark parts scrape off easily. One of the offspring experienced a ramen salad and did not like it. Weird since half of his calorie intake is ramen... They let me put Stoutcast.com and Thespitter.com stickers on the register, so thanks! Outdoor seating out of the wind which was awesome. Servers Tessa et al were very nice and friendly.

    There ate no shortages of coffee places in morro bay The place on the hottest corner in town was finally consumed by another coffee place. The last few occupants just didn't get the business they earned to return again,always an issue Hopefully Nautical has their beans together and will make proud this golden corner in morro bay. Leo greeted me as I came through the door, okay good fun and good stuff. The skate board theme was unexpected for a nautical place. I was expecting fish nets and glass buoy balls. Its what's inside that counts said my mother, I ordered a iced mocha coffee no whip The menu looks interesting and certainly needs further exploration. Breakfast burrito, sandwiches, pastries, cookies sold out Yeah...and my favorite sitting outside in the shade watching people crossing the street verses cars trying to cross the street. Add a bar on two corners and the entertainment begins. So come on in and buy something and lets keep this coffee place in business foodguy-Martin

    Their coffee is sooooo good! It might be the best cuppa coffee I've ever had! We returned to Nautical bean in Morro Bay to partake of some more of that delicious brew! It was foggy as usual, and what better place to beat the fog than in a warm, cozy coffee shop.? Especially one decorated with cute skate and surfboard themes and quirky decor! The cafe was crowded but a friendly and patient barista took our orders! My coffee was up right away and I sipped it while we admired the baked goods in the counter and waited a short time for them to be ready. I ordered my decaf coffee latte in a large size so I could savor it throughout the day. We then put in an order for an everything bagel and lox with cream cheese. My husband got his traditional breakfast sandwich to go along with his coffee. The coffee was the perfect match to the rich flavor of the lox and cream cheese everything bagel. My husband's breakfast sandwich was opulent and a generous size. We will return to this cozy cafe time and again for their wonderful coffee and accompaniments!

    - Groggy's Scallywag Coffee House…read more My girlfriend and I stopped at Groggy Scallywag Coffee House during a short trip to Morro Bay after she had noticed it on a previous visit. I'm glad we finally tried it. It's a small coffee shop right off Embarcadero with a simple setup. They have refrigerators with cold drinks, can make both hot and iced coffee, and also offer a small selection of pastries such as muffins, croissants, bagels, and cinnamon rolls. They also sell coffee to take home. There really isn't indoor seating, but that did not bother us at all. You're right by the coast, and there are tables outside in the breezeway along with areas near the dock where you can stand and enjoy your drink. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The menu is displayed on a TV screen near the entrance, which made ordering easy. I ordered a large iced Mexican mocha, and it was excellent. You could actually taste the spice in it rather than it just tasting like a regular mocha with a different name. I would absolutely order it again. One small thing that really stood out to me was their discount program. Near the register, they had a multicolored flag recognizing several groups including military, law enforcement, EMS, firefighters, dispatchers, and nurses. Before ringing us up, the employee pointed to it and asked whether any of those applied to us. I told her I was a nurse, and she immediately gave me 10% off. I thought that was a really nice touch. Discounts for military and first responders are common, but nurses are not always included, so I appreciated the recognition. Between the good coffee, friendly staff, convenient location, and thoughtful service, I really have nothing negative to say about this place. I would absolutely come back and would gladly try more of their drinks and pastries next time I'm in Morro Bay.

We were lucky enough to snag the last almond croissant, and what a treat it was. The exterior had a sweet, delicate crunch, and with each bite, rich almond filling oozed out for the perfect balance of texture and flavor. It wasn't overloaded with powdered sugar, and the sweetness was just right--indulgent without being overwhelming. I also tried a slice of the salmon and leek quiche. It was light and fluffy while still feeling substantial and satisfying. The combination of savory salmon and sweet leek worked beautifully together. Whether you're starting your morning or looking for a midday pick-me-up, the quiche is a must-try. I was excited to try the house made mango-infused black iced tea, but unfortunately, there was nothing mango flavored about it That said, this bakery is still well worth a visit.

Turkey sandwich on croissant was really heavy, not much to write home about though. Caramel Oatmeal cookie good. Raisin Oatmeal was really good. Chocolate Chip Oatmeal crumbled. Almond Oatmeal was OK. Friendly folks, got a handicapped place right in front. They are open until 3:00.

So I went into the Smoothies place to check it out, oh and write a review as I wait. Cozy as it gets with the friendly staff, actually looked like they enjoy the job and human interactions. I asked for a Mango something smoothie but no pineapple, be creative. The place has a good variety of drinks and edibles, sandwiches, salads, avocado toast, and on and on. If you don't see it they would probably make it for you. Now granted I was the only order being made at this moment and my smoothie was delivered to me as I sat at the bistro table out front. I was surprised how flavorful the smoothie was, I don't know why I thought that but it did taste good, a bit pricy. I'm good with pricy and this was backed up with quality ingredients and stellar service. Ah...yes and supporting local business is good for everyone Thanks, I'll see you again! Foodguy-Martin

The person working there (owner?) Was hustling hard. She was working the register. Cleaning the tables. Handing out the food. Making the food and drinks in the back. She was a 1 woman wrecking crew. But still was able to get everyone's stuff out in a timely manner. Without sacrificing customer service. We ordered their chai latte and a black medium roast coffee. As well as a breakfast burrito and a rock harburrito. We forgot to tell her it was to go as we were trying to get back home before the LA traffic started. Imagine to my surprise when she came out with the food and it was to go!! The chai latte was really good. I loved it. And my wife really enjoyed it. Black coffee was good too. No frills. No fluff. But it kept me awake for the 4.5 hour drive home. So that works. The breakfast burrito was really good. My wife enjoyed hers. And mines was good too. Packaged really well. Ate it while driving so that really facilitated us getting home before the traffic. It was a very hearty burrito the rock harburrito. Gave us some green sauce to go with it. And it was just amazing. The inside is somewhat cramped with many tables and chairs. She also sells baked goods. And some random things. Like coffee mugs and other things. Nice signs all over the place as well as in the parking lot about the importance of coffee!! I really loved the hustle. And the food and drink was amazing. Not more you can ask for.
