My partner and I stop by here every chance we can when we pass by Seaside, adorable little shop with excellent service and DELICIOUS coffee. Anytime we stay in Seaside it's part of our daily routine to get something to drink and walk up and down the beach. The staff are always friendly and pleasant and do their absolute best …
I brought a friend in to Controversial Coffee and after listening to them rave about the coffee and breakfast, I realized I haven't reviewed this spot! I love going in to order a "surprise me" drink, because they are always so delicious. The sandwich options are awesome and I love that my favorite, artichokes, are an option. There are so …
I went in here and had a shaking cake cold brew. Funny name. I hope this is a good picture I took I like the coffee a lot. So did my brother. We both had a great time, I wanted to buy iron on rainbow patches but maybe next time.
What more can I say about Controversial Coffee?! It is the best coffee on the Oregon coast (serving Sleepy Monk coffee)! They have drinks, snacks, merch, stickers, photo ops, clothing donation, games, plenty to look at, and places to sit. They are kind, professional, friendly, inclusive, knowledgeable, and quick every time we visit. Wish I had one of these where …
There are so many wonderful things about this coffee shop, I can't possibly fit them all in a single review. They have cute and nerdy themed menus and keep track of the old menus so you never lose a favorite drink just because it was seasonal. They have a pay it forward program and a free clothing closet to make …
I’ve been all over multiple countries, and to find a coffee shop that cares about their community, customers, and staff is uncommon. To actively care and involve themselves to the level that Controversial Coffee does is unheard of. The drinks are awesome. The prices are more than reasonable. The atmosphere is welcoming and accepting of everyone. If you ever have …
Passing through seaside while doing trailwork and found this cafe on my off day! The staff was super friendly and they had a ton of alternative milk options! The space was awesome with a free to take area, books, merch and more. It was super cool to find a community space like that, i highly recommend!
This was such a fun stop for my boyfriend and i on our trip to the coast! A+ meme game, funny drink names, very lgbtq+ friendly. Sadly we only got coffee, not food, but the coffee was amazing!!
First time here as my boyfriend and I were in town for a small birthday trip for me and I wanted to try their chai as I love chai and I know every place makes it differently. The chai was very tasty along with my tiramisu. My boyfriend got a smoothie and a danish which he enjoyed. Grem (cool name …
Great coffee, great croissant sandwiches, great fun, great activism. Love the work they are doing in their community. Their support for our unhoused neighbors especially hit home for me. We stopped in to support a queer owned business and ended up finding our new favorite coastal cafe for brunch, selfies, and play a game of cribbage.
