    apparently don't empty the garbage either
    Elizabeth B.

    There are many things about Peet's that I prefer to Starbucks, however that being said, why do Peet's employees have to be so darn snotty? I came in to have a latte and a scone this afternoon and as usual they don't carry stevia which, frankly I don't understand. They only carry the rat poison. I wanted to sit outside and enjoy the sunshine so I asked for a rag to clean the filthy table. The barista apparently found this very annoying. I would've thought he would be thankful that I was doing his job for him. Good coffee, good enough scone but I prefer friendly service It really makes everything taste better.

    When u ask for a latte and spending 4$ they dont fill all the way up Thats nonsense compared to other coffee shops its fill up and make your satisfaction And their lattes aren't that great taste Compared to Starbucks its better

    I am really happy there is a Peet's in Scotts Valley. I used to go to the one in Capitola all the time and DT Santa Cruz just to get the Yin hao jasmine tea with honey...steeped for 5 mins then iced... Went with my daughter yesterday, on a Sunday.. it wasn't crowded...we were in and out pretty quickly...the food and pastries are expensive for the size and quantity of the food...they also have boxed up snacks with salami, cheese and fruit etc...and yogurt and granola....but I wasnt going to ask how much there were because the price of the small sandwiches, smaller than the palm of your hand, were $5...so I didn't bother asking. Staff were friendly...they made our drinks pretty fast and done right...only downfall...the parking lot...really crowded and hard to park and hard to maneuver and get in or out of the lot...so I parked at the Walgreens parking lot.

They now change $0.25 for to-go cups, which I guess is a Santa Cruz ordinance. Can you imagine them doing that elsewhere? Oooooh my city would make a killing off that!

I could see why they call it a tiramisu latte because of the mascarpone foam and the lady finger. It was decent, but I think I would have enjoyed a standard vanilla latte more. I also personally didn't like how the cold foam dripped down the side of the cup because it got all over my hands! As a former barista, I always made sure my drinks were clean before handing them out.

I also loved how their store was set up and they sold local arts and crafts from the community! I love the community aspect here in Santa Cruz County! Perhaps she misread the menu, but she thought "egg stacker" was a sandwich because it was under the "bagel sandwich "category. But under the description, it does not say there's any bread. Lol, which is better for us since we're trying to be gluten-free for the day. I had an ice green tea and a salmon egg which was delicious and filling perfectly made egg with the right amount of capers and seasoning for each bite to have enough flavor on it.

Everyone was super nice and friendly and had a great morning vibes.

They even have hot foods, like breakfast sandwiches. To top it off, they employ really inclusive and inviting staff that make you feel welcome. The order line may look long when you arrive if it's morning or noon, but it always moves quickly. The only downside is the hours are sometimes shorter than I'd like, so I've sometimes come at times it's closed, so I recommend checking online before driving over to make sure they'll be open when you arrive. TIPS: - The only semi-confusing part is you pick up the food on the LEFT side of the counter and the drinks on the RIGHT side of the counter. - The extras (lids, sugar, napkins, etc) are at a little station on the right side of the counter, close to the side doors. - There are stairs leading upstairs that have limited tables and a small couch, but if you can snag seating upstairs, it's a cool space bec it'll feel more private and you get to look down at the cafe. - Sometimes Loft holds special events, so be on the look out for flyers. The space is so cute with the different types of seating and plant areas that divide up the space. There are also a few outdoor tables and chairs for those who prefer Al Fresca.
