Cute local coffee house in Capitola. They have one of the best views from their patio upstairs which is where I was able to capture a nice photo before the crowds got there Easter morning. I ordered a double soy latte with vanilla and it was good. Nothing spectacular. There is a credit card minimum of approximately $5 I believe, which is a bit annoying considering most people dont use cash anymore to purchase items. The service is okay, they arent over-friendly, more of the typical hipster baristas that dont smile a lot, but they are cordial. I feel like you cant compare the customer service to other well known places, they really know how to treat customers when its more corporate, but maybe the coffee quality isnt as good, Im not really sure how that works, but it would have been a more pleasant experience had the service been more welcoming, especially since it was early and and no one was there yet. At least I got a great photo op from the patio! Id go back if Im in Capitola again since Im sure there are other baristas working there who may be friendlier.

We have been going to this place for a year every chance we get. We absolutely love this place and their staff. On the day of Anniversary we went to Mr. Toots Coffee House and had coffee with the usual scrumptious hot apple pie comes with a scoop of vanilla ice cream which complements our coffee. The man who tended to us wanted to charge us $1.75 per scoop (we were never charged before) or was never aware of the charge. He then proceeded to say "if you want a scoop of whip it will be extra 25 cent." The moral to the story is... as a regular customer he shouldve waived the charges for the scoop of ice cream and or whip, not argue with your customer. It was disappointing, we really loved this place. Not so much anymore with the experience we encountered with this man. He also stated he will fire anyone giving away a scoop of ice cream. Bad business.

Okay, so maybe the coffee is not as good as Peets - heck, nothing can be as good as them - but I LOVE this cafe. Whenever Im in Capitola, I always come here. The laid back vibe combined with the fresh breeze from the sea instantly takes your stress away. Located upstairs, there is indoor seating and limited patio seating. You can sit by the patio door as well for a fantastic ocean view as well as a great photo op. I dont recall any lunch items, I usually just get coffee and a pastry. What am I doing sitting in my living room in suburbia?!? I need to get another dose of the ocean and come back here soon.

Showed up today at 745 to a "be back in 5 minutes sign." Barista had to use the restroom I guess. Took more like 10 minutes to get coffee. Then when I poured out 1 oz of coffee I was lectured that the bags cant hold liquid in the garbage. This was after I asked for ROOM. Clueless barista...CLUELESS. Sunday morning 1 barista system is garbage like your concept. CHEERS

Great coffee and awesome view but was really taken aback by the attitude of the brunet female barista (Saturday morning). Within tolerable rudeness to us, but basically watched her mess up the order of the couple in front of us and proceed to snap at them when he politely reminded her 5 minutes later. The guy working was awesome, totally made up for his nasty coworker.

I wasnt impressed by the coffee or the cardboard tasting muffin I had, but the balcony is amazing. The prices are decent for Capitola Village and California in general, $4 for muffin and coffee. The entrance is hidden on the left of Margaritaville and the balcony looks smaller than it really is.

Delicious coffees! I love the Borgia with orange, chocolate and steamed milk. Normally Im not a fan at all of flavoured coffees. But this one is yummie! Lovely small terrace with ocean, beach, lagoon and Capitola Venetian view. Enjoy your coffee in the sun!

Bagels are from Costco, a banana costs $1.50, but staff is really friendly and its a really cute coffee shop. Didnt try the star attraction (coffee) but the iced tea was nice. Plenty of plugs if you want to stick around and work. Great views, too!

This is my favorite coffee shop in all of Capitola. Mostly for the atmosphere. Great vegan/vegetarian options for quick coffee shop eats. Awesome workers. Very friendly and a great view out onto the venetians, ocean and river. (Pictures coming soon)

Stunning few with a tasty coffee. The entrance is a bit hidden, next to the restaurant downstairs. This makes this place even better, because not many know about.

Cute little upstairs coffee house! Their mochas taste great, they have a variety of drinks and pastries, and the view out from the patio is fantastic.

A cute place to get a cup of coffee after a chilly day on the beach. Reasonably priced, great art on the walls, and dog friendly.

Nice ambiance, friendly staff. The coffee may leave a little to be desired, but the locale more than makes up for that fact.
