Miss F.

Have not gotten to visit here in a while. What a treat. Especially the pumpkin spice chai. Clean, enjoyable, friendly warm place. Highly recommend and I will continue to support. Thank you

Berry scone and cafe au lait
Maria O.

This place has plenty of parking so it's pretty accessible. I was warmly greeted and my questions were answered gracefully. The interior is decorated with origami cranes and Japanese art. I ordered a cafe au lait and a berry scone. The scone was baked perfectly and went well with my warm beverage.

We ordered the vanilla latte and matcha latte. The matcha was high quality and tasted what matcha should taste like. My husband enjoyed his vanilla latte. We also ordered the almond croissant and asked for it heated which made the filling overflow and the croissant a bit soggy since it was heated in the microwave. Not sure if it was in the microwave seconds too long, but next time we will not ask for the pastries to be heated. But the almond croissant was still tasty just very messy. Customer service was very friendly.

Visited one coffee shop and now I'm debating moving to Los Osos. Yokoso is everything good about the small coastal town of Los Osos. This cafe is so cozy that I almost canceled my plans to soak in the neighborly vibes. I visited on a road trip up the coast of CA and grabbed a sweet pastry and an iced matcha latte with vanilla to-go. My only mistake was ordering a small. The drink was gone in minutes. I'd easily return and order this matcha by the gallon and I suggest you do the same.

Cortado with oat milk. Perfect. Can get with a matcha flavored Pocky (Japanese cookie stick). $5.50.

These are the sweetest, most welcoming people! The coffee drinks are top notch and the hang is good for socializing or working. I enjoyed a delicious ham and cheese croissant. Decor has a Japanese theme. WiFi is medium-good; had a few issues with a dropped signal. Pups welcome at outdoor tables. Seating is mostly tables with some soft seating in back. Will return!

Hair in the bottom of a pastry liner

The pastries were a big miss for me and the matcha latte was mid and tasted diluted. The orange cardamom bun was dry and the spinach danish was soggy. There was a hair in the bottom of one pastry liner.

Quiche Lorraine
Wells C.

It felt like going to a friend's place to hang out. I loved the ambiance with the wood furniture and art decorating the walls. The owner came by and chatted with us. I ordered a matcha latte, pour over coffee, a quiche lorraine. It was delicious. I will definitely visit again.

Matcha Latte
Rasha D.

Yokoso Coffee is again a wonderful place to go! They often add new pastries, including pies and cakes. I can't recommend their Matcha Cake enough. Balanced, light, fluffy, and a joy for my taste buds! And as always, the service is excellent, and Michael and his team are very kind-hearted.

Ceremonial Matcha Latte.. simply delicious!
Dug S.

Great family ran coffee spot. Very cozy, clean. Opened not to long ago, and they run the place with love!!! You can feel it .. and taste it in their products . Soft music, the family are very inviting! Made us feel at home! Great matcha, great tea lemonade. Great drinks!!! Delicious pastries! Please give them a try... no reason to go to Starbucks!!

Wayward Baking is one of my favorite bakeries of 2026…read more 1. I've only heard great things about Wayward Baking so I had some expectations - each one of them was met and then some. This bakery is simply amazing and everything I tried was so good. 2. I ordered a kouign amann, chocolate croissant, morning bun, double chocolate cookie, and two caneles. If I could order more, I would've added a rice pudding danish, basque cheesecake slice, and madeleine. I love that when standing in line, you can peek into the kitchen to see what the bakers are working on. It's really nice to see the process and work that go into everything. 3. Their chocolate croissant is my ideal chocolate croissant. I love when the outer layer is crisp and the inner layers are soft and buttery. The caneles were yummy - they were crispy on the outside, custardy on the inside, and the flavor was perfect. I loved the double chocolate cookie as well, it had great texture and the flavor was very balanced - not too sweet! 4. Even if it's a bit out of the way, I would absolutely come back every time I'm in the area.

I really wanted to like Wayward Bakery. There aren't many bakeries in the area, and when we…read morevisited, this seemed like one of the more promising options. The space itself is cute and has the feel of a neighborhood hangout, and the pastries are beautifully presented. Unfortunately, the pastries were hit or miss. Some were nice and flaky, while others tasted a little stale. The ham and cheese croissant was served cold, which was disappointing. We also tried the strawberry danish and tomato danish, and both were pretty mid. The standout, however, was their seasonal fig and walnut danish--that one was actually really good and something I would have ordered again. Their drink selection is also pretty limited. It was essentially coffee and hot chocolate when we visited. As more of a tea person, I was disappointed that there weren't any tea options, and they didn't have juices either. The main reason for my low rating, though, was our interaction with the staff member who took our order. She came across as very rude and repeatedly made impatient tapping sounds while we were ordering. We were ordering quite a few items, and the interaction made me feel rushed and as though we were inconveniencing her simply by placing a larger order. At first, I assumed she might just be having a bad day. But while we sat and ate our pastries, I watched her interact with other customers, and her demeanor was noticeably different--warm, friendly, and welcoming. That contrast made our experience even more uncomfortable. We were the only Asians in the store at the time, and while I obviously can't know what motivated her behavior, the difference in how we were treated compared with the customers who came after us left me wondering whether our race played a role. That's a serious conclusion, and I don't make it lightly. I can only speak to what I personally observed and how the interaction made me feel. Unfortunately, it overshadowed the entire visit. Even with a couple of good pastries, I wouldn't come back.

- 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.

Great vibes, great drinks, great decor…read more Matcha was perfect, helpful staff and you get money back!!

We have been to the Scout Coffee location in SLO and this was the first time that we've been here at the Morro Bay location. We had an iced vanilla latte and hot mocha along with their morning bun. The mocha tastes a little bit more like a hot chocolate mix with espresso versus an old-fashioned mocha, but I was pleasantly surprised by how lightly sweet it was. The morning bun was one of the best morning buns I've ever had. The bakery for Scout Coffee is at this location and so all the pastries were very fresh. The location aesthetic was beautiful and they had a lovely large wooden community table that you can sit at as well as a cute area for kids to sit and play equip with a kid coffee shop wooden toy. Very sweet.

I ordered my chai hot with oat milk and vanilla on the sweeter side. I also ordered a chocolate banana bread. The banana was definitely rich, yummy. As for my chai, it genuinely just tasted like some very plain almost like water. You could taste a hint of chai but it just wasn't enough. I did ask for more vanilla but it didn't really help. I was sad cause I really wanted to love my chai, I rarely even order it hot but I was in the mood for one. My sister got hot chocolate which she enjoyed! Other than that it was cute inside and did have a good vibe going.

The Cinnamon French Toast was good, just not as unique or homemade-tasting as I expected, still a solid 8/10. The hot chocolate was another 10/10 So delicious!

While searching Yelp for a coffee shop, Rock Espresso Bar came up as one of the most popular…read moreoptions in the area. With so many reviews, I was looking forward to giving it a try. Walking in, you can tell this is a classic neighborhood café. There's nothing overly fancy about it--just a few tables, a small pastry case, and, of course, coffee. One thing that surprised me was the music choice. They were playing what sounded like punk rock, which felt a little out of place for the atmosphere of the café, especially since many of the customers appeared to be older adults. For my order, I went with a blueberry muffin and a cappuccino. The muffin was fresh and flavorful, and the cappuccino was well made. Overall, I was happy with both items. The reason I'm taking off a star is because the employee working during my visit used a lot of profanity while speaking. I understand that casual conversation happens, but I don't think that kind of language is appropriate in a café setting where customers are trying to relax and enjoy their coffee. Overall, I would recommend this place if you're looking for a quick grab-and-go coffee or pastry. The food and drinks were good, but the atmosphere wasn't ideal for sitting down to study, work, or have a conversation with someone.

Our food came out in 15-minute intervals instead of all together, so some of us were finished eating before others even received their meals. We also got drink refills with no ice, which was just another odd detail. To top it off, everyone in our group developed diarrhea just a few hours after eating there. I can't say for certain what caused it, but it was enough that none of us will be returning. Very disappointing experience overall.
