Dune was right next to our hotel, and it turned out to be one of the best coffee shops we visited…read more The coffee was smooth and balanced, with a bold body. It was so good that we went back the next day! On our first visit, we tried the almond croissant and banana toast with chia seeds, and both were delicious. We hoped to try the breakfast burrito the next day, but it was sold out. The pastries on our second visit weren't quite as good as the first, but the vanilla latte and matcha latte were both delicious. I'd definitely go back, and hopefully get that burrito next time!

Good coffee but awkward staff interactions. I don't know if it was the time or just an off day but…read moreI felt like I was given the Gen Z stare both times I tried this place. It wasn't particularly busy when I went but I felt like staff was annoyed I was interrupting their chat time. Vanilla latte is good and in close proximity to other shops but I would probably try somewhere else before going back again :/

Jeannine's is a cute restaurant that takes pride in its history through both the artwork that…read moreadorns its walls to the other displays that highlight its unique story. When you walk in, you'll wait in line to order at the front. I came in as a group of 3 on a Friday morning so there was a good line formed, but it went by rather fast. When you order, you're given your number if you choose to dine in and you're able to choose your own table. By the front cashier area is the table that has water + cups, napkins and to-go boxes. For my first time here, I decided to try the breakfast quesadilla. For its price, the portions are nice and large. The quesadilla is served in pre-cut sections and is paired with potatoes, sour cream, guacamole and salsa. I'll keep it short and say it was delicious! One of the best parts of the dish is how the cheese in the quesadilla crisped up to form a crust. The eggs were soft and fluffy, and the potatoes were great! And shout out tp the orange juice which tastes so sweet and fresh. Overall, I enjoyed my experience here!

It tasted like bananas foster, with the bananas coated in sweet brown sugar syrup and balanced with the fluffy French toast. Would absolutely get this dish again. It's a very cute little diner vibe. They have bakery and other items on the way to order so definitely check out everything at this place!

I drove around, looking for parking and finally got some and went in to get a sugar-free latte and…read morethey do not have any sugar-free syrups. Pretty disappointed. I've never run into a coffee shop without sugar-free syrups for people that can't have sugar, so I walked out.

My friends & I were really excited to try Kin after seeing all the videos on social media. We went…read moreon a Sunday afternoon & waited around 20 minutes before ordering. From the time we got there to the time we received all our drinks it took a total of 30 minutes. I got the hojicha einspanner & my friends got: strawberry/raspberry cream top latte, double einspanner, regular cream top latte, cream top green Thai tea, & an osmanthus matcha cream top. All the drinks were very well made and delicious. The matcha had the perfect balance of grassy/sweetness to it. I would definitely come back again.

He told me I wasn't welcome back and was very rude because I didn't purchase something in the 45 min that I was sitting and studying not knowing I was going to buy something before I left.

After trying a donut from slodoco at my job, I was very interested in stopping by and trying one of…read morethe specialty flavors from slodoco! I ended up ordering a lavender latte and Nutella pillow donut. I just waited a brief moment for my latte but otherwise everything came out quick! I dug in immediatelyyyy. It was so good! Definitely hit the spot. The donut was fluffy and not too sweet. The latte had a good ratio of flavors and also not too sweet. Since coming to slodoco the first time, I'll find myself from time to time wanting a donut from here specifically again. Definitely enjoyed my experience and will be back!! Highly recommend.

Hands down the best donut place in Santa Barbara. I visit SB once a month and this is a place that…read moreI head to each time. There is a wide selection of donuts (including fun seasonal varieties) and the donuts are fresh (and almost fully stocked) no matter what time I buy them (even in the evening). I also love the hearty drip coffee. It's perfect to balance my sweet, scrumptious donut. I've had some of the seasonal donuts but my favorites are the Tiger tail (glazed twist with chocolate behind the counter) and the apple fritter. I also appreciate that the prices are reasonable. Been to some places where the "artisanal" donuts are more than $4 and not worth it. The most that I'm paid for a donut (my giant apple fritter that I can eat for days) is $3.95. Again, my favorite donut place and I am a donut monster.

Parking was super easy with a big lot, and the shop itself has a cozy but modern feel. We took our drinks to go, but there was plenty of seating both inside and outside. Between the four of us we tried the black cold brew, iced mocha lattes with oat milk, and a hot mocha latte with oat milk. Everything was good! My iced mocha was a little too chocolatey for me at first, but I added some extra oat milk and it was much better. My husband's official review of the cold brew was "good," which coming from him basically means there were no complaints lol The staff was friendly and the hot mocha was really pretty too! Good coffee, cute atmosphere, easy parking and friendly service. I'd definitely go back, but with so many coffee shops to try, I'm not ready to commit just yet!

Stumbled on to this place by sheer luck. For once I didn't look at Yelp for any advice or reviews,…read moreI just happened to be in the area and decided to try it out and I was glad I did. This shop has a great atmosphere and the staff is very friendly, but I think most importantly, the espresso was great! Maybe not as good as Beacon here in Ventura but still very good. The only downfall is that I am not sure when I'll be able to come back since it is all the way up in Goleta but I will for sure keep it bookmarked for next time I am in the area.
