    Outside seating are and front door near parking lot.

    Located on corner of Seaward and Main Street, small parking lot or street parking. Cute coffee shop with great coffee and fresh breakfast items. All staff are patient and helpful. I've never had a negative experience with staff here. I get a large iced oatmilk latte and it always tastes great. The service is also fast. You can eat indoors on comfy chairs and tables or take it to go. The prices are quite reasonable. This is a charming local neighborhood coffee shop with zero attitude. It feels like authentic ventura, not a tourist trap. Highly recommend!

    Exactly what I needed this morning. Plenty of breakfast options to eat with your coffee or matcha. Delicious

    Croissant with ham

    I was searching for breakfast options in Ventura and stumbled upon this one. Kinda hidden if you have not been this area but surprisingly good. I had their burrito with had eggs, bell pepper and I added olives instead of onions which was really good. My mom had their hand sandwich with this which she enjoyed as well. Highly recommend and will return

    Welcoming staff! They provided great recommendations and answered all my questions! The breakfast sandwich was absolutely delicious and fresh! My daughter loved her breakfast burrito & matcha drink! Busy Friday morning yet lots of room to sit, including tables & comfy couches! Definitely going back soon!

    Maple Sea Salt Oatmilk Latte
    Keya M.

    Had a pretty solid maple sea salt latte this morning! Not too sweet, and it was just what I needed. The staff is super friendly, and upon walking in the vibe is very comfortable, and homey. It's like I walked into my living room and everyone was gathered around having their morning cuppa joe! The only downfall is the parking, there isn't much of it.

    I love a good coffee and breakfast. Stopped on a Sunday at around 10am. Parking so rough but I eventually found a spot on the street. Cute spot with a ton of natural light. Some seating indoors and they share a space with Valentino's . Perhaps the same owners. So there's more seating on that side. The breakfast burrito and Seaward Sandwich were delicious. Oh and my caramel copper dulce... delicioso. What a treat! They have Calioh Coffee , one of my faves. That was a plus! I will be back :)

    I love this place. Avo toast #3 is incredible and they always have a fun menu to suit the season/holiday.

    Buenaventura Bagel Sando

    Bagel breakfast sandwich was delicious! Best in town for sure. I got a Buenaventura bagel sandwich and a Americano.

    5 for food and drink options 5 for the matcha latte I got 5 for nice, friendly staff 4 for location -plenty of seating both inside and out but it was difficult to find parking 4 for how long we waited for food 2 for food because there were two blonde hairs in the breakfast sandwich I got.... I averaged these scores for an overall rating of ~4

    One of my favorite coffee spots in Ventura! Great coffee and seasonal drinks (for those interested in trying something new). They are know for having the best avo-toast in town, but I usually opt for a breakfast bowl (gluten free) when eating. They also offer smoothies, acai bowls, bagels and pastries. The vibe is cozy, the staff is always friendly and it's the perfect spot to grab a quick latte, work "from home" or catch up with friends over a good meal.

    Coffe and a bagel!

    Great coffee and bagels. Pricing is good and has a laid back atmosphere. Service is great.

    I was THRILLED to find out by Bobby (at Lil Sammies donuts) that Copper Pot had later hours! I get off work and I need a little pick me up and it's on the way to my house. Lily helped us out and she was so sweet. I LOVED the Caramel Copper Dulce! My kids also got drinks and we tried the spring drinks too. I was very surprised at the low cost compared to surrounding shops. Because the quality was superior. I love the chill vibe too. The part couple days my kids and I have really enjoying coming by for an after school drink.

    Caramel Copper Dulce & Main Street Mocha
    Alyssa A.

    What an amazing find! Usually I'll find a coffee house with average food or a cafe with average drinks. But Copper Coffee Pot brings both great coffee and great breakfast to the table. DELICIOUS avocado toast - some of the best I've ever had. You have to get the #2: bacon, hot honey, tomato, red onion ... I actually usually greatly dislike honey and avoid it like the plague. But I somehow LOVE it here... It all complements each other perfectly with the crispy bacon and such good flavor. Their copper croissant is good too, but the avocado toast is where it's at. Great coffee. Love their Main Street Mocha - perfect sweetness. The Caramel Copper Dulce is good, too, but it's a little too sweet for me. I'm actually excited to try more of their drinks because they all look so good! Have never had a problem with parking availability - always plenty of spots in front. My only complaint is that every time I'm here, they leave the door propped open and there are so many flies!! Otherwise, super nice inside with lovely artwork and some comfy places to sit. Check it out, and you'll leave happy!

    Came here with a party of 8 on July 25. Even though there was quite a bit of people waiting, we…read morewere seated within 15 minutes or so. The place itself is so cute. Curiosity got the best of me because it looked like a house so I decided to dig a little bit more into it. Apparently, it's a 1920s Spanish bungalow They have both indoor and outdoor seating. Service is attentive and very friendly. Now the food... Oh man, it was delicious!! I was eating healthy and got just a plain chicken bowl and that was really nothing to write about, but that was my fault because who gets that when surrounded by such yummy food like Strawberry Matcha pancakes or Churro French Toast with kiwi, banana, berries and chantilly cream ‍ Anyways, we got the maple bacon beignets for the table and wow, that was delicious. Warm, fluffy, sweet, salty... yummm!! My son got the 2+2+2. At $23 it was a little pricey for two eggs, 2 bacon and 2 pancakes, but the pancakes were huge and barely fit on the plate. The bacon was also very thick and tasty. Warning: That the house made vanilla caramel syrup they serve is super addicting and you're gonna want to drizzle everything with it!! Everyone else at the table was really happy with what they ordered. Someone also ordered a biscuit on the side and that was by far the fluffiest biscuit I had ever seen. Usually they can be dry and hard, but this one was quite opposite. I've seen other pictures online and I guess it can be a hit or a miss because they don't seem to be consistent. I will definitely be back next time I'm in town and this time actually try the other plates I was eyeing

    Stopped by to try this place and waited maybe 10 minutes before we were seated. Wasn't too long…read more The inside looks pretty cool, but it's dimly lit and was a bit muggy when we went. So we decided to sit outside where it felt a bit more open. We got a corner spot that was secluded, which was perfect for the kids! Our waiter was very attentive and nice. We tried the chocolate French toast and presentation was amazing- taste... not so much. Overall the food is great for a demographic that doesn't value flavor and too much salt. We left 80% of the food because we couldn't enjoy it. If you like your eggs like they serve at hotel continental breakfasts-- you'll enjoy this place!

    SERVICE: I appreciated the cheese samples once seated…read more There's a deli in the back to buy blocks of cheese or spreads. Nextdoor also carries a lovely room of some great wines. The employees were kind, place was clean, there's in and outdoor seating, and parking is what you make of it as PP is located on a blocked off street where cars are not permitted. All to say, research where you wish to walk about, find a meter or free parking lot - enough around, and put on your good yet cute walking shoes because you'll enjoy strolling about after your meal here - or drink. FOOD: I sooo loved my grill cheese. Instead of mushrooms I swapped for spinach - you're welcome. AND THE PICKLE ON THE SIDE - delish! So why 4 and not 5? Because of my limited lifestyle I found the menu a bit limiting. However, I am not a HUGE cheese person and I don't drink. With that said, I feel anyone else who loves to indulge in that world should have a super great experience. Mine was still great. WELL: I actually enjoyed my time and shall return. My mother loves a good red wine so I'll bring her too.

    The food was genuinely good, and that's what makes this experience difficult to rate. The dishes…read morewere well-prepared, flavorful, and arrived promptly. What left me uncomfortable was the service. Throughout the meal, I felt singled out and dismissed in ways that were hard to ignore. Staff were outwardly polite and seemed to be making an effort to be friendly, but the interactions often felt forced and noticeably different from the way other customers were being treated. Requests seemed to be met with impatience, and I repeatedly got the sense that I wasn't being welcomed in the same way as others around me. One example was when we asked if a finished plate could be removed to make room for new dishes that had just arrived. The request was met with hesitation, and it felt as though taking the plate was an inconvenience. Later, when I asked for to-go containers, the employee handing them to me appeared visibly strained to be courteous. It was one of several interactions that left me feeling like basic requests were being tolerated rather than accommodated. I can't speak to anyone's intentions, but the overall experience left me feeling unwelcome despite the surface-level friendliness. I came away wondering whether bias played a role in how I was treated. What stood out most was the contrast between how we were treated and how some others were treated. From where we were seated, I observed other customers receiving noticeably warmer service, including more smiles, friendlier conversation, and a more welcoming attitude. My party did not experience that same level of warmth. The food itself was very good, but the service experience would make me hesitate to return.

I love the high quality ingredients they use, from the eggs to the produce, nothing is industriel or pre-made. There is a parking lot in back, but during the weekday it's easy to park on the street.

I thought the tacos would be decent, had a good attitude coming here, but boy, what a nice surprise this place was! Small line in front, you order, pay, go inside, wait for your order at pick up window. Simple! Tables on the pier, and they have a patio facing the ocean, nice view. Picnic tables! They sell wine, beer, margarita-s. Great selection! But the tacos!!! We got 4 between me and my husband to share and sample: Baja Taco (got fried fish) had fresh ingredients, lettuce and a nice lime flavor! Beach House Tacos (got grilled fish), nice pineapple salsa, tender fish, nice sauces and lettuce. Calamari Taco - fried calamari - fresh avocado and cabbage, nice sauce - chipotle. Marilu Taco with popcorn shrimp with nice chile lime crema, not too spicy. Even the fried seafood here is fresh, not very fried, just a tad, nice and crispy, but not greasy. Loved every taco, they are all different than each other, they use fresh ingredients and vegetables, each had a great, original flavor, they don't skimp on anything - seafood or ingredients. By far, some of the best tacos I ever had, they go in my Top 5. 4 Tacos (they are big!) are enough for 2 people. My and my husband we also shared a portion of guac and chips, they reminded us of Mexico. The guac had a lime flavor and well mashed, the tortilla chips are thicker and extra friend.

    Beach House Tacos? More like Beach House Snacks…read more I stood in line for 15 minutes just to place my order at the window, then waited another 45 minutes for my food.

Inside were three of the smallest "street tacos" I've ever seen. I've seen more substantial meals in Barbie's Dreamhouse. I ordered the carne asada, but apparently the salt shaker took the day off because the meat had absolutely zero seasoning. No salt, no flavor, no redeeming qualities. The punchline? This tiny, flavorless comedy routine cost me $10 and an hour of my life. If you're looking for an appetizer for a doll or you're on a strict "disappointment diet," this is your place. As for me... never again.

I ordered to go this time so I could get back to parenting and enjoying the weather. Had to be quick so I could enjoy my time before it cools down and my sunburn fully sets in.

Anyone who doesn't love a chicken, bacon and avocado sandwich might have some taste bud issues... It came with in-house made potato chips and those were also wonderful. I smashed that thing and literally went right to sleep in my chair. What a perfect beach day thanks to Dukes. To add to my food experiences and recommendations here, the time before this, I ordered the fish and chips. In my case it was the fried fish and sweet potato fries. It was so flavorful and crispy. I highly recommend eating it there or hopefully near by so it doesn't lose that fresh crunch. However, you have to get any and all fries with their Ranch. I had to get extra as I couldn't seem to get enough. Obviously every fry needed to have a disgusting amount of ranch on it. Everything I had from here so far has been incredibly tasty and I would recommend it anytime you're in the area.
