    Matcha Affogato
    Natalia W.

    Came just for the matcha affogato, but also got a chocolate chip cookie that was rich and chewy. The ice cream was good but I didn't finish it. The flowers were aesthetic but made for a off putting texture when eating in my opinion. The outdoor seating area could also use a revamp in terms of getting some more shade! It was so hot I had to eat the affogato before it melted entirely.

    Casual little spot with delicious food items and soft serve! My friend and I ordered a tuna sandwich, Korean pork belly bowl, and a matcha affogato to share. We originally wanted to check this place out because of the matcha affogato and it was bomb - so creamy and light! Our savory items were delicious as well. Everything tasted fresh. For sure recommend checking out this place for lunch!! I wanna return and try their quiche, which was unfortunately sold out. You order at the register, find your table and your food gets delivered. There are plenty of tables outside to sit at with partial shade.

    Buffalo Milk Soft Serve with olive oil to go.

    Rory's Other Place is part specialty market, part coffee shop, part food counter. It's a great place to pick up a bottle of wine and some snacks for a picnic, or order food to eat in. We stopped in right before closing, (there was a sign on the door stating they were closing early for July 4th), and ordered the Buffalo Milk Soft Serve to-go. It comes topped with extra flaky sea salt and you can opt in for a drizzle of olive oil for an extra charge. I suggest you do that because it was so decadent and really took the dessert over the top. The soft serve itself was so creamy and had just the right amount of sweetness.

    Came here for the matcha affogato and it sure did not disappoint. The soft serve was so creamy and the matcha was gorgeously green. It was the most perfect combo ever! Definitely a little on the pricey side but totally worth it and it sure does make a pretty picture!

    Such a cute spot! The matcha affogato was delicious, and the hibiscus limeade was definitely on the sour side--but the perfect refreshing drink for a HOT day. Would definitely come back!

    Cute little brunch-type spot in Ojai located on a street with a bunch of fun little shops & eateries. You place your order at the counter inside and can pick a table on the small patio area outside. I came here around 11 AM on a Monday morning with my partner, and there seemed to be a steady flow of customers. Some were grabbing a meal while others stopped by for a quick drink & pastry. We ordered the breakfast burrito (unfortunately, they didn't have any chorizo available) and the Korean rice bowl. The Korean rice bowl was definitely my favorite of the two, as it had more variety in terms of taste and texture. The food here If I were to return in the future, I'd be curious to try the butter and ham sandwich, as that seemed to be a favorite of some of the regulars. I'd also want to grab a pastry as the scones and cookies in the case were quite enticing. Overall, flavors aren't anything out of this world, but it's a nice spot to grab a meal and people-watch if you're in the area.

    Super charming!!! Came here for the viral Matcha affogato and was very pleased! There was plenty of parking spaces on the Main Street where this is located and it's surrounded by alot of cute shops to explore. There were a few bar styled seats indoors but most of the seating was outside, great for when the weather is nice out. Will need to come back to taste more of their things. Our dessert came out fast and everyone was super friendly. MATCHA AFFOGATO $12 - (9/10) So beautiful AND delicious! Was pleasantly surprised that the matcha taste really came through. I was expecting this treat to just be a pretty trendy item but it is actually VERY GOOD! It wasn't super sweet and the matcha had a perfect tea taste. The matcha on top of the ice cream also had a satisfying crack. In love!!!! - free 2hr street parking in a side lot +paid street parking - seating for groups, duos, and solos - Indoor and outdoor seating - no outlets - No wifi - No bathroom - Sells drinks, pastries, and food! - Dog friendly

    Im lactose sensitive but made an exception for this gorgeous verdant swirl and it was so worth it! Unfortunately had to share it (boooo). I would make the pilgrimage to Ojai just for this.

    Breakfast burrito

    If you're in ojai you must stop by to get the matcha affogato. Literally looks heaven sent. Delectable. I also got the chorizo breakfast burrito and a hojicha latte and my friend got a tuna sandwich and a blood orange turn up cookie. The breakfast burrito was big but nothing to write home about. The hojicha was watery and also nothing to write home about. This place is more known for their baked goods so def give those a try. The patio was cute though. I liked eating out there. I think overall my experience was good. The matcha was what I was there for. Would I drive 2 hrs just for it. But if I'm back in ojai I would stop by for it.

    I was so excited to try their famous matcha affogato and I was not disappointed. It is quite small inside and they also have limited seating so keep that in mind when stopping by. It was very busy when I stopped by too but I only tried their matcha affogato. It was perfectly sweet and the matcha paired beautifully. Definitely give it a try!

    I found Rory's Other Place on TikTok because everyone was raving about their matcha affogato, so during our Black Friday stroll through Ojai, we decided to stop in. So glad we did! We got lucky and were only third in line, because the line grew super fast after us. The matcha affogato absolutely lived up to the hype--rich, earthy matcha poured over soft serve ice cream... loved everything about it. It's definitely a must-try if you're in Ojai. The shop itself is tiny, though, and the flow inside could be better. The cashier didn't say anything about where the line should form, so when more people walked in, they just stood around confused. Seating is also very limited both inside and outside, so be prepared to grab your order and go. Overall, amazing treat, great find, and worth the stop--just expect a bit of a wait and tight space.

    Savory Toast
    Elysia G.

    Charming little café with a very cute side patio. Counter service vibes. Grab a number and they'll bring the food right to your table (we love efficiency). Fresh-baked pastries staring at you from the case (dangerous), plus a thoughtful pantry and wine section for when you "just came for coffee" and leave with extras. Ordered the savory toast, a baguette topped with soft egg, anchovy, aioli, pickled mustard, and chives. And yes, it works. If you're a savory lover, I recommend. Paired with my usual iced vanilla latte, perfection. Cozy, unfussy, and exactly the kind of spot you want to gatekeep but won't.

    took a little day trip to this beautiful town and this was our first stop. We were just intended to try the matcha affogato but our eyes were caught on their food menu as well. Their sandwiches were just ok but the Korean rice bowl was star of the show! It was so flavorful and as a mushroom lover I was impressed by it. The matcha affogato was great too and worth the drive there. Staffs were nice & attentive i'll be back
