“ Unbelievably cute coffee and tea shop owned by a father and son. They are very passionate about tea! Lovely outdoor patio and excellent vibes overall. Make sure to stop by if you finished the aquarium or are just visiting in general in Pacific Grove. ”
“ Absolutely fantastic iced mocha and such a cute patio with a great vibe. Highly recommend to hide from the crowds of cannery and the aquarium ”
“ What a hidden gem! Located in the walking trail between Wave Street and Cannery Row, we found a quaint little spot that served delicious pour over coffee and various teas. They also served gluten free treats that were fresh and delicious. The owner was very welcoming and the server was also very helpful in guiding us on what to order. No only did we get delicious coffee, tea, and treats but we also got a little tour of his studio. Lastly there is actually heated concrete seating that kept us warm while enjoying the serene atmosphere of the patio and fish pond. We will definitely stop by again the next time we visit Monterey. ”
“ A very endearing place, part coffee/tea house and part yoga studio. On the coffee front they do a range of excellent pour overs, though no lattes. Really great tea selection, and you can purchase some home too. The peaceful little courtyard up front is super charming. ”
“ specialises in drip coffee with local roasted beans. nice quiet environment; nice coffee. very relaxing to hide from the bustle of monterey beach. decaf beans available! ”
“ Stopped by after a crowded visit to the Aquarium, and we found a peaceful and beautiful oasis to rest and recoup. They offer a selection of delicious pour over coffees, soft drinks and teas, as well as pastries. We sat outside and enjoyed the garden and patio as folks drifted in and around the space. We even met the family that owns and constructed the space, as they run the cafe together! It was a unique and personal experience, and made our Monterey day that much more enjoyable. Thank you to the owners, Rett & Judy, for their warm hospitality and openness! ”
“ One of the best pour over (and I am comparing to SF places such as ritual, four barrel, andy town...) with definitely the best pecan muffin i ever had! ”
