One of the best coffee shops around this area. Staff is friendly. Perfectly brewed coffee and tasty avacado toast is a must have.
Been going here a while and absolutely love this place. Great owners and staff. Cozy and family friendly environment. The food options are great too! The avacado toast is my favorite. Great flavor and keeps me full through the morning! Always looking forward to my daily coffee 😁
Under new management, the avocado toast & waffle selections have been expanded but the service & menu staples are still great.
Great new coffee shop in town! If you want real lattes, espresso and coffee (not blended frap drinks), this is your spot. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the food is great too.
Great new coffee shop. Very well decorated, looks like something from Palm Springs. Had an excellent maple cinnamon latte. They also have some other unique. With their new Saturday hours, there are no complaints.
By far the best coffee in US! Specialty coffee and baristas with the knowledge - so score 20/10! Keep up the good work!
It’s so nice to have a fun and charming little coffee shop in town. Staff was very friendly and everything is made right in front of you. I had a liege waffle with whipped cream and strawberries and it was the best waffle I’ve ever had. I also had an iced herbal tea and it was a refreshing accompaniment to …
This place is awesome! I’m super picky with espresso but theirs is on point. I owe Ridgecrest an apology because I assumed there wouldn’t be anything besides Starbucks but this is a hidden gem!
Americano was good, not too bitter - mild and smooth. Aesthetic was friendly and chill. Prices fair. Outdoor and indoor seating. Great alternative to Starbucks for doing some work on a laptop or having a meetup.
Loved our visit. Tiny but mighty coffee shop! Enjoyed my avocado 🥑 toast and Iced mocha.
